As soon as we were about to turn back, I suddenly felt a strong aura of uncertainty, and I immediately jumped away with my guard in my arms.

Unexpectedly, the source of the breath turned out to be Adrian.

He was still sitting on the throne, but I saw him leaning forward, his trembling hands clutching tightly on the armrests, his face tense, and he looked like he wanted to leave the throne and go before us, but the dignity of the emperor forced him to remain calm.

"Young man, you have the breath of Abbott in you, he ...... Where is it? Adrian's voice sounded a little trembling, as if he was trying to suppress some kind of emotion in himself.

I frowned and thought for a moment, making sure I hadn't heard the name Abbott: "I'm sorry, I don't know who you're talking about." ”

Adrien's lips pursed tightly, and he looked more stern, and he waved his hand to the subordinate officers standing beside him, and the two subordinate officers went down, and after a few minutes, one of them held a roll of paper with both hands upright.

Adrien pointed to the scroll and said, "This is Abbott's portrait, open it." ”

The portrait appeared in front of me in an instant.

I was blown away.

I'm sure I've never been so surprised, and although I've always been calm on my face with experience, I'm sure the look in my eyes must have betrayed me.

Yes, I am so familiar with the mermaid in this portrait that he will appear alive in my nightmares, and stretch out his bloody hand to me, and ask me fiercely, why don't you save him, why!

This mermaid named Abbot is the deep-sea mermaid who was dissected in the research institute!

"You know him!"

"Tuk!" The sound of the scepter pounding the ground fell, and Adrien stood up, pointing the scepter at me sharply, and forced to ask, "Where is he?" ”

I really didn't like the situation of being pointed at my nose and asked, and Shi seemed to understand my thoughts, and immediately stood in front of me, babbling and shaking his head at Adrien.

Adrien seemed to be restraining his anger, and he slowly lowered his scepter, but his gaze was as sharp as a blade.

"Before I tell him where he is, who is he?" I asked, looking directly at Adrien.

"He is my dear brother, he has disappeared since the last sacrifice, and I have been looking for him."

I was stunned, I didn't expect that Abbott turned out to be the leader's own brother, fate really played a joke on me.

I sighed, since the matter has come to this point, I don't think there is any need to hide it, otherwise it will only deepen the misunderstanding between the two sides.

"I'm sorry, although this is the end that everyone doesn't want, but unfortunately, he died, died in the institute."

"What did you say!"

A fierce murderous aura erupted, and I faced Adrien's angry face, trying to keep myself calm, and told him the memories that I couldn't bear to look back on.

Of course, I didn't tell him about my mental sharing ability, but only vaguely told him that I saw Abbott's death through other people's memories, and out of humanitarianism, I only said that Abbott died in a test accident, and I didn't tell him the real cause of Abbott's death, after all, it was too cruel.

But the partial concealment did not mean that Adrien would be angry, he was even more angry, and the scepter pointed at me again: "Human, you are lying! Your insincere eyes expose your lies, and you can't hide from the eyes of the sea god! ”

I'm not going to debate with him whether my words are lies or truths, after all, lies are the most acceptable answer for him, and since I have decided to hide them, I will definitely hide them to the end.

While I was silent, another subordinate officer hurried back with two things in his hand: "Chief, I found this in this man's room!" ”

Oh God, this is just adding fuel to the fire.

Yes, the things that the subordinate brought with him were nothing else, it was Abbott's long hair and eyeballs that I had snatched back from the institute.

Deep Sea Merfolk are social merfolk and have a deep bond with their companions, so they have twice as much sense of smell as other merfolk in their companions. After receiving these two pieces of human tissue, Adrien naturally sniffed out Abbot's breath.

"Human, you killed Abbot!"

"I didn't," I replied calmly, "the truth is what you heard." ”

Adrien pointed to Abbott's "relics": "So how do you explain these!" ”

"I grabbed these from the institute staff, and they're planning to make them into specimens."

"Lies! Your eyes are full of deception, do you have proof of the truth of what you say! ”

"Unfortunately, no."

"Then, you are the murderer!"

As the roar rang out, a blue light burst out from the top of the scepter, and before I could react, a blue figure stood in front of me......

"Babble!"

"Release!"

The light hit Shi's abdomen!

He flew out with the force of the impact and fell heavily to the ground.

"Oh my God, little one!"

Thomason cried out in surprise, and was about to pass, and I immediately ran towards Shi, but—

"Who dares to go over!" As soon as Adrian's awe-inspiring voice fell, the guards standing on either side of us suddenly stretched out their sharp □□ to stop us from taking a step forward.

We stood at the same time.

Thomas looked anxiously at Shi, sweating profusely, and I coldly squinted at the tip of the gun that almost reached my neck.

"Brake, shatter, ......" A low pant came from the direction of the release, and I looked up, and the situation was very wrong.

He was still lying on the ground, his body undulating and undulating, and the sides of the bottom of the fish's tail were a pale silver color, and two openings were cracked, and something was about to emerge from the gaps, and his tail was slowly fading and fading.

Hell, he's changing into a blue merfolk, which will reveal that he's not a deep merfolk.

In times of crisis, his exposure would be dangerous.

"Release, don't move, I'll go over now!"

"Who dares to pass! Protecting the murderer is equivalent to a capital crime! As soon as Adrien's menacing roar fell, the guard's □□ stretched a few more centimeters forward and landed right on my neck.

"Heh," I smiled coldly, glaring down at the cold instruments around my neck, "I'm going to ......"

"Who dares to stop me!" A high-temperature flame erupted from all over my body, and a violent shock wave of flame energy centered on me and shook in all directions, and all the guards were immediately shocked ten meters away. Under the propulsion of the flames in both hands, I immediately broke out of the encirclement and picked him up.

Fortunately, Shi fell in the corner, and no one seemed to notice the change in Shi.

"Shi, are you okay?"

Probably hearing my voice, Shi's body changes stopped, and his hideous face gradually returned to its original state, he blinked and looked at me, suddenly hugged me, touched his abdomen and cried: "Sals, Sals, spit, spit." ”

"Do you mean your abdomen hurts? Show me. I looked down at his abdomen, there was no big wound on the surface, just a little red, but I didn't know if there was any internal injury, "Thomason, can you help him take a look, he seems to be in pain." ”

I looked nervously at Thomason, who hesitated to look at Adrian, who was still in an angry state, sighed and said "I'm sorry", and trotted over to check on him.

"Take them down." Adrien gave a sharp order, and the guards who had been shaken apart surrounded me again, and I replied coldly without any expression: "Don't worry, I won't run away." You can choose not to believe it, but if you think that asserting that I am a murderer in front of so many people is the best way for you to do it, you can kill me, provided that you ......," I raised my head, looked coldly into Adrien's eyes, and said word by word, "Kill me." ”

"Kela", I heard Adrien clenching his fists.

When the atmosphere stiffened, Thomason's diagnosis was over: "Rest assured, he's fine, the leader didn't take a heavy hand, and the mermaid's superb healing ability can make the little guy return to normal in a short period of time." ”

"Thank you for your help."

Thomas Masson breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the hot sweat from his head: "Saving people is the duty of a doctor, you don't need to thank me, I just hope that next time please don't have such a situation again, I'm old, and my heart can't stand this kind of stimulation." ”

Probably unable to stand the pain, he fell asleep and was lying quietly in my arms, I touched his head and nodded to Thomason.

"Chief, I know you are very sad, but please allow me to say that there is no evidence that Sals killed your own brother, and Sals is the benefactor of our people......"

Before he could finish his sentence, Thomasson was interrupted.

"I know."

I thought that Adrien would say something threatening for the sake of the leader's face, but to my surprise, he probably calmed down and said, "I was impulsive, you know, how important Abbott is to me, and I can't accept Abbott's death for a while." You take the little one down to heal," he turned to me and said, "As for you, I will put you under house arrest for the time being, and if you are indeed innocent, I will personally apologize to you, but if you are really the murderer of Abbott, I ......"

"You don't have to do it yourself, if I am really a murderer, I will definitely kill myself and apologize." I interrupted Adrien.

"Don't be so categorical," Adrien said coldly, turning his back to me and turning his back to me, "In a way, you who knew that Abbott had an accident but didn't save him are also murderers. ”

I was shocked.
