Chapter 3: Dead by Daylight III
Because of the explosion, Su Mu did not continue to stay in the Yunge Tavern, so he asked Renee and her friends to apologize, and after saying goodbye to Alec, Su Mu left with his family. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Under the guidance of the housekeeper, Su Mu's family got into the carriage with the logo of the Su Chamber of Commerce. Su Cheng and Wang Li sat on the side close to the coachman, and the three brothers Su Mu sat opposite Su Cheng and his wife, the atmosphere in the car was a little dull at this time, Su Cheng and Wang Li were contemplative, and the three brothers didn't know what to say.
The carriage, wrapped in silk on all sides and carved with ancient patterns, slowly drove out of Jinlong Square, and the carriage was still very quiet, except for the sound of wheels. After a while, Su Cheng, who had been looking out of the window since getting into the car, retracted his gaze and broke the silence: "What do you three brothers think of today's events?" ”
The eyes of the three brothers who were asked by Su Cheng converged on Su Cheng, and Su Yuan, who was the eldest brother, sorted out his thoughts and said: "As Wendell said, this matter is too strange, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is aimed at Li Nian, the president of the alliance, and the most important thing is that from the position of the explosion, the other party obviously understands the banquet process very well, and is completely sure that President Li will speak at the speaker's seat, not at the main table, plus DeWitt said in the tavern that his father and President Li broke up unhappily, And there are less than two weeks to go in the new alliance president election, Dad is the first candidate, and our Su family will be the first to be suspected. ”
After listening to Su Yuan's words, Su Cheng nodded with satisfaction, and turned his eyes to the second eldest Su Xing, Su Xing said with a little hesitation: "I agree with the eldest brother's point of view, what I care about most is De Witt's words, you must know that Ripley is the person who has the best chance of being elected president besides Dad, could this matter be designed by Ripley to frame us?" But I also think that if it was designed by the Ripley family, it would be a bit too much for Devitt to do it, and his behavior could easily make people suspect the Ripley family. After speaking, Su Xing looked at Su Cheng.
And Su Cheng still didn't express his opinion, just nodded, and then said to Su Mu: "Mu'er, what do you think?" Although I only arrived after the fact, I would like to hear your opinion. ”
Su Mu sorted out the scarf, sorted out his thoughts, and said after a pause: "I still have a situation here, I want to talk about it first, today I asked a friend to come to Yunge to play, and I met DeWitt when I was waiting for someone, because of the previous thing about playing the 'adventurer' game, DeWitt has always held a grudge against me, but he is afraid of our Su family's status in the alliance, and he has never been very arrogant before." But today he not only slandered my mother, but also teased my friend Renee, feeling like he wanted to provoke me, and sincerely came to find trouble, coupled with what he said on the second floor, DeWitt's performance today is too unpredictable. After speaking, Su Mu paused, waiting for Su Cheng's response.
"Oh? And what's going on? It's a bit elusive indeed, you move on first. Su Cheng's right hand stroked his chin and said with a little contemplation.
"Another point, when I was at the scene today, I also paid special attention to the place of the explosion, the aura of the spirit son is not right, a bit like the appearance of the spirit magic that has just taken effect, it should be an explosion spirit art that can be controlled remotely, and it is very cleverly arranged, the power of the explosion is controlled very well, and only the little place that will be affected by the explosion is the little place in the lecture seat. There should be few spirits who can arrange this kind of controllable spiritual magic in the entire North Star City, and there are no such spiritual magicians in the Rippleley family, if you want to invite this kind of person, the price is a little too great, but our Su family can do it, because the last time we went to the imperial capital of Farah, when we encountered a rolling stone blocking the way, our chief of guards, Uncle Dick, opened the way with such a spiritual technique, this is a well-known thing, if my guess is correct, then this matter is aimed at Dad, and it should not be done by the Ripley family, But from DeWitt's performance, one thing is certain, what the Ripley family knows. Su Mu told his discoveries and guesses when he was at the venue in a clear and coherent manner, which is why Su Mu looked at the explosion in a daze before leaving the venue.
"Spiritualist, explode the spirit ......" After hearing this, Su Cheng did not respond to Su Mu at all, but fell into deep thought, and after a while, Su Cheng looked at Wang Li with inquiring eyes: "Madam, how likely do you think Mu'er's guess is?" ”
When the three brothers spoke, Wang Li was also thinking about this problem, and when he heard Su Cheng's question, Wang Li said without thinking too much: "You also know that Mu'er has a very sensitive sense of Lingzi since he was a child, and the basic theory of spiritual art is also very solid, so I don't think Mu'er's guess should deviate too much." ”
"From this point of view, our Su family will definitely not be able to get rid of this matter, it's really a headache, I'll think about it again." After speaking, Su Cheng stopped talking, his eyes turned to the window and fell into contemplation again, and the carriage became quiet again, only the sound of wheels remained.
The Su family said that the spirit of the child, in this world for a long time, as early as the ignorant and hazy era, people found the spirit of the green particle energy body, in the long years, people's understanding of the spirit of the child gradually deepened, and finally found that you can use these spirit children to drive the elements, so as to use the 'incredible' power, and this method of use was finally studied by people "spirit son magic".
With the advent of the Reiko Revolution, Reiko magic has also been fully developed, and the concept of Reiko technology has been derived.
Su Mu has a very keen sense of Lingzi since he was a child, although so far the 19-year-old Su Mu can only know basic spiritual techniques such as illumination and Lingzi marking, but under the guidance and influence of Wang Li, Su Mu's spiritual theory foundation is very solid, and the basic spiritual skills can be integrated and used flexibly. Therefore, Su Mu's speculation made Su Cheng have to pay more attention to this explosion.
A series of speculations made the entire Su family feel uneasy, and in such an uneasy situation, Su Cheng stayed awake all night, and went to the Public Security Bureau the next morning according to the agreed time with a complicated mood.
Not long after Su Cheng left the Su family, Wang Li summoned the three Su Mu brothers and the guard chief Dick to the study.
The study of the Su family is surrounded by blue-gray walls, ivory curtains with safflower and windtail patterns, and knitted screens in front of the cast-iron stove shelves; A mahogany antique cabinet with all kinds of knick-knacks behind the glass; The floor mats of glass beads, on the bookshelf are literary and doctrinal works such as "Song and Poetry in the Clouds" and "The Law of Life", among which there is a row of extremely eye-catching, which is all the works of the founding emperors of the old Augustus Empire. There are also quite a few works of the Holy Dragon Empire.
In the study, Wang Li stood in front of the desk, and said to the three Su Mu brothers and the guard chief Dick with a gloomy face: "You also know that the head of the family has gone to the security bureau in the morning. I discussed it with the head of the family yesterday, and I can basically think of this matter, and the next step is to target us. After all, the foundation of our Su family is not in the Holy Dragon Empire, and the head of the family does not dare to take this risk, so the idea of the head of the family and I is to take the three of you out of North Star City in the name of needing a few of us to go to the main house of the Republic of Tarmoya to avoid this limelight. The three of you brothers are now hurry up and pack your things to prepare, and we will leave North Star City overnight. ”
Then Wang Li said to Dick: "Dick, you go and arrange three reliable guards, and you will lead the team to protect everyone's safety." ”
"Yes, ma'am, I'll arrange it." Dick didn't ask much, the middle-aged uncle who was about 40 years old and had stubble on his chin saluted Wang Li and left the study to make preparations.
Seeing Dick leaving, the three brothers also left the study to pack their luggage, and just when Su Mu walked to the door, Wang Li's voice sounded again: "Mu'er, you wait a minute." ”
Hearing Wang Li's shout, Su Mu, who had walked to the door, turned back and asked with a puzzled expression, "Do you have any other orders?" Mother. Wang Li nodded and said, "You let Alec go to the Public Security Bureau to investigate the situation, once something happens, we can know it as soon as possible, in case we are too careful, it will be difficult to explain at that time." ”
"Yes." Su Mu nodded, didn't say anything, left the study, and went straight to the Yunge Tavern as fast as he could.
When everyone left the study, Wang Li was the only one left in the study, I saw Wang Li's eyes flickering, I didn't know what I was thinking, I walked to the bookshelf, Wang Li put his hand on a book called "Red Leaf Dynasty" on the shelf, and suddenly Wang Li sighed: "Hey, I hope this matter is not out of control, now is not the time." ”
Su Mu rushed to the Yunge Tavern in Jinlong Square as fast as he could, and found Alec who was finishing serving the dishes to the guests, Su Mu didn't say anything, grabbed Alec's hand, and pulled him to the back garden. Alec, who was dragged by Su Mu to the back garden, looked at Su Mu with a puzzled expression and asked, "Brother Mu, what are you doing?" Why do you have to come here? What's wrong? ”
Because of running all the way, Su Mu couldn't stop panting, his breathing adjusted slightly, and Su Mu, who had eased up, said to Alec eagerly: "Can you do me a favor now?" The matter of yesterday's banquet was very strange, and my parents guessed that it would target our Su family next, so I hope you can help go to the Public Security Bureau to find out the situation, and if anything happens, report to us immediately. ”
Looking at the anxious Su Mu, Alec nodded, took off his waiter clothes, and said, "No problem, I'll go and say hello to the boss, if there is any situation, I will go to Su's house in time to report the news." ”
"Thank you, I won't say anything, I'll go home first to see the situation, the security bureau will rely on you" After Su Mu finished speaking, he left the Yunge Tavern directly from the back garden.
Seeing Su Mu leave the Yunge Tavern, Alec also hurried back to the hall to greet the boss, and after a while, Alec left the tavern in a hurry.
In the Su family's study, the head of the guard, Dick, appeared again and respectfully reported to Wang Li: "Madam, the people have been arranged, the carriages and horses have been prepared, the utensils on the road have been brought, and the young masters have all packed their luggage and are waiting outside, just waiting for your orders." ”
"Yes, got it." Wang Li nodded and said, then remembered something again, and spoke again: "Dick, I have a hunch, things will not be so simple, since the Su family has been targeted, the other party will definitely take precautions against us, I think it should not be smooth for us to leave North Star City tonight, you four must be mentally prepared." ”
"Madame, don't worry, Dick has already told them, we will be extra careful, even if we fight Dick's life, we will not let Madame and the young master have an accident." Because there are few things that will make their lady face so embarrassed, Dick has realized the seriousness of the matter, so this time the weapon that Dick brought was a long sword blessed by wind spirit magic that he had not touched for a long time, this sword Dick used very easily, and the happy Dick named this sword Lingfeng at that time.
Night is approaching, and the atmosphere of the Su family is getting heavier and heavier, although it is still as usual on the surface, Wang Li and the others are already making preparations quickly.
A figure appeared at the gate of the side courtyard of the Su family, looking at the busy Wang Li and the others, the figure said to himself: "The reaction is fast enough, but do you think you can survive this way?" ”
At this time, Alec, who was already observing the situation near the security bureau, saw Su Cheng walking out of the hall, followed by several people from the security team, and saw Barrett, the captain of the security team, make a gesture of please.
Alec, who was watching from a distance, saw Su Cheng walk out and just breathed a sigh of relief, but found that the people from the security team were still following Su Cheng, and the direction they were walking was leading to the prison of the Public Security Bureau.
Alec's face turned ugly in an instant, he didn't think about it anymore, turned around and ran in the direction of the Su family, he had to go and inform Su Mu and Wang Li immediately.
