Chapter 320: The Power of Public Opinion
ran back to Dale's house as fast as he could, even with Su Qiubai's cultivation, he was a little out of breath.
"How? Is there a catch? Yang Kexin saw Su Qiubai come back, and finally felt a little relieved, and hurriedly asked.
Su Qiubai nodded, and before he could speak, the door was pushed open by Dale.
Su Qiubai was not out of breath at this time, so he hurriedly pretended to be frightened, and stepped forward and said to Dale: "I saw it too, it's Gerald!" ”
When Dale saw Su Qiubai's appearance, he didn't suspect anything else, but just said to Yang Kexin: "You take him out first, it's enough to have Mosa here." ”
Yang Kexin nodded, got up and put on some clothes and took Su Qiubai out of the room.
Before leaving, Su Qiubai took a closer look at Mosa and saw that he was about fifty years old, wearing a red robe and holding a huge crystal ball in his hand. His eyes were gloomy and cold, and Su Qiubai was afraid that looking at him a few more times would make him suspicious, so he hurriedly turned around and went out.
Su Qiubai remembered that he had seen a delicate wooden shelf in Mosa's room, on which was the base of a spherical object, which should be the one Mosa used to put the crystal ball.
This trip is so anxious, he still has a crystal ball, it can be seen that this thing is his magic weapon, but he doesn't know what kind of magic he is practicing.
Su Qiubai wanted to use his divine sense to probe the situation in the house, but like the last time he was outside Mosa's house, his divine sense could not penetrate at all. It seems that the prohibition did not come from Mosa's house, but from him.
"Everything's gone, right?" Su Qiubai asked Yang Kexin in a low voice.
Yang Kexin nodded and said, "I have already thrown the stone out of the window, and the blood stains have been wiped off." But I didn't dare to throw the skull, so I'd better give it back to you. ”
Yang Kexin said, and took out a hidden skull from his arms.
Su Qiubai carefully put it away before he said again: "I have already figured out the situation there in Mosa, and I have also obtained the information I want. The next thing to do is to provoke Dalle and the pirates, as long as they have internal strife, it will be much easier to break them from the outside. ”
Yang Kexin frowned and asked: "Dale has absolute authority in the Serra Saint, even if someone is dissatisfied with him, he doesn't dare to show it, how can you provoke this contradiction?" ”
Su Qiubai shook his head with a smile and said, "If it was before, I would definitely not be able to provoke the contradiction between them." But now I don't have to pick and choose, there is already a contradiction between them, and all I have to do is to further intensify this contradiction. ”
Yang Kexin thought for a moment and said, "Do you mean the thing that Gerard said?" Now that Gerald is dead, he is dead without proof. Even if anyone doubted him, there was no evidence, and the pirates who came to him would not be able to overthrow him. Those pirates are actually just a group of rabble, if it weren't for the leadership of Dale's henchmen, their combat effectiveness would not be feared at all, not to mention that Dahler and Mosa are helpers, I am afraid it will not be so easy for you to intensify this conflict. ”
Su Qiubai nodded and said: "The question you said is indeed true, but it is undeniable that what happened on the wedding day did shock the hearts of many pirates, and they already had doubts about the rule of Dale, which is like a spark that has been ignited in everyone's heart, although it seems to be powerless, but once one day a trace of spark bursts into the grassland of Dale, it will definitely be able to develop into a prairie fire." The embankment collapsed in the anthill, and we only need to continue to deepen the bad impression of Dahler in their hearts, even if it is to help the termites build a nest. ”
Yang Kexin pondered what he said carefully, although it was only Su Qiubai's speculation at the moment, the situation he said was indeed possible, what they had to do now was to wait for the slightest doubt in the pirates' hearts to take root, and wait until their patience with Dale reached the limit, and then ignite this prairie fire with their own hands.
The two were talking when they heard a terrible scream coming from Dalle's room, which didn't sound like a human being.
Yang Kexin glanced at Su Qiubai nervously and asked, "What happened?" ”
Su Qiubai shook his head and said, "I can't detect the situation inside, but this voice doesn't sound like Dale's, and it is very likely that Mosa has disposed of the ghosts in the house." ”
Listening to the ghost's screams, Mosa's hands are heavy enough, and this ghost is probably unable to live beyond life.
"It's not going to be haunted again, is it?" Yang Kexin asked with palpitations.
Su Qiubai laughed when he heard this, and said, "Although Mosa is not a good person, you still have to believe in his methods." Tomorrow I will rearrange the outside of the house and break the ghost situation here, and there will be no problems in the future. I originally thought that Dahler would be able to hold out for a little longer and then look for Mosa, but I didn't expect him to be unable to hold back that night, this guy is too timid. ”
Yang Kexin heard him say that it would not be haunted in the future, and he was immediately relieved, and the expression on his face was finally much more relaxed, and he said with a smile: "I didn't expect him to be so scared, so he almost screamed like me." Dale has never been afraid of any living person, even if he was slapped at the muzzle that day, he didn't show his fear, but as soon as this person died, he was afraid, after all, he did something wrong. ”
It didn't take long for Dalle and Mosa to open the door, and Yang Kexin and Su Qiubai regained their previous nervous expressions and looked at the two of them with inquiring eyes.
Dale said to Yang Kexin: "One qiē has been solved, don't worry." ”
Yang Kexin breathed a sigh of relief, stroked his chest and said, "That's good, what I saw tonight is really terrible." ”
Dale hugged Yang Kexin in his arms, patted him comfortingly, and then turned his head to Su Qiubai and said, "It's okay here, you go back to sleep." ”
After sending Su Qiubai away, Dale ordered someone to send Mossa back to his residence, and then went back to his room and continued to sleep.
Early the next morning, before Dale got up, Su Qiubai went to call Xiaofeng to his room, read him the words he had written down last night, and asked him to translate the meaning for him.
Although Su Qiubai can't speak English, his language talent is not bad, and his memory is good, so Xiaofeng can understand the words retold as soon as he listens to it.
"The meanings of these three words are fleet, defense, and retreat, Brother Lang, what are you learning these words for?" After Xiao Feng finished translating, he asked suspiciously.
All three of these words are related to naval warfare, and it seems that his previous guess was correct, that necklace was a tool for Mossa to communicate with the inner ghost. And if nothing else, the inner ghost should also have the same or similar necklace in his hand, with this clue, he will naturally have a way to find the inner ghost when he returns to the Wei Navy District in the future.
Su Qiubai didn't explain to him in detail, but said: "Recently, I feel more and more that it is too inconvenient to not understand English at all, you can teach me more if you have time, even if it is to teach me some vocabulary so that I can understand what others are saying." ”
He followed Dahler all day long, but he couldn't understand a word of what he said, and wasted a lot of opportunities to gather information. What's more, Su Qiubai is just a bodyguard, and he doesn't need to communicate with him in any language, he doesn't know English, which is more convenient for Dale, and naturally it is impossible to carry Xiaofeng with him as a translator.
"It's a little bit of a little bit of a mess for me, it might be a little hard to teach you English, but it's much easier just to understand it." Xiaofeng said confidently.
Su Qiubai nodded, and suddenly said, "Xiaofeng, do you want to avenge your father?" ”
Xiao Feng's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this, but then he lowered his head again and said, "I'm just an insignificant little person, how can I have that ability." ”
Su Qiubai touched his head and said, "Don't underestimate the power of small people, in many big events, it is the little people who play a key role. ”
Xiao Feng's eyes seemed to ignite hope, and he asked, "Of course I want to avenge my father, but I can't even be sure who killed him now." ”
Su Qiubai remembered the pool of corpses under the courtroom, and said: "During this time, when I was investigating another matter, I accidentally found the place where Dale's body was hidden, and among them was the body of Gerard and others. The place is connected to Mosa's residence, do you think the two of them can escape from this matter? ”
A trace of hatred flashed in Xiao Feng's eyes, and he said, "Sure enough, it's them!" ”
Su Qiubai nodded and continued: "We can now be sure that this matter was done by Dale, so there is no need to be polite to him. In fact, it's not just you, but the pirates of the Holy Serra also have opinions about Dale in their hearts, but they don't dare to say it. Their suspicion of Dalle is still in its infancy, and someone needs to catalyze the growth of this suspicion, and you are the right person to do so. ”
Xiaofeng pointed at himself and asked in disbelief, "Me?" Do I have what it takes? ”
Su Qiubai nodded and said, "Only if you do this, will you not arouse the suspicion of others." ”
Xiaofeng asked suspiciously, "Then what should I do?" ”
Su Qiubai thought for a while and said: "The power of public opinion is sometimes very terrifying, I know that you usually deal with the pirates in the city, and you only need to mention this matter appropriately when chatting with them, and often deepen their impression of this matter, after a long time, the resentment in their hearts will become deeper and deeper, and there will be public opinion within the pirates, and over time, the contradictions between the pirates and Dale will intensify, so that I will have the opportunity to overthrow Dale's rule." ”
Xiao Feng was a very flexible child, he lowered his head and thought for a while before he understood what Su Qiubai meant, and also thought of how he should secretly publicize and exaggerate this matter.
"Brother Lang, don't worry, those pirates are also very gossip in private, and they often ask me about the gossip I have collected, and I will find an opportunity to remind them of this." Xiao Feng said understandingly.
Su Qiubai believed that with Xiaofeng's cleverness, he would definitely be able to do this thing without leaking, and after sending him away, he went to wait for Dale to get up.
