017 The Professor's Rap
While Masha continues to learn daily spells, something big happens at the Sea Hunter Headquarters.
Chen Guangda, a first-class demon hunter, walked into the observation room with steps like the wind.
Xiao Ruhe, a first-class demon hunter who was already inside, greeted him: "Team Chen, you're back." ”
Chen Guangda glanced at the middle-aged man with glasses who was handcuffed to a steel tube chair and humming a little song in the interrogation room on the other side of the one-way glass window.
"How did you catch it?"
Xiao Ruhe also turned his head to look at the one in the interrogation room, and spread his hands: "He walked into the first floor of the main hall building, went straight to the reception, and then was recognized by the face of the surveillance system." ”
Chen Guangda smacked his lips.
Xiao Ruhe also smiled bitterly: "It looks like something terrible is about to happen, and I'm ready to work overtime in a row." ”
"I'll talk to him." After Chen Guangda finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Xiao Ruhe looked at his back and asked, "Don't you have to wait for the people who are in command of the envoy to arrive?" ”
Chen Guangda ignored it and left the observation room directly.
After a few seconds, he opened the door to the interrogation room on the other side of the one-way glass and walked straight to the bored man with glasses.
"Associate Professor Lanping......" Chen Guangda opened his mouth, and as soon as he spoke, he saw the middle-aged man with glasses raise his index finger and wave.
"Professor, there is no 'vice'." Lan Ping smiled slightly, and then repeated in English, "Professor, it's time for your database to be updated." ”
Chen Guangda spread his hands: "Yes, congratulations on the promotion." ”
"You're welcome." Lan Ping smiled and accepted Chen Guangda's unintentional congratulations.
The witcher pulled open the stool in front of Lan Ping and sat down, looked at the "dangerous person" through the interrogation table, and asked straight to the point, "...... your experiment this time It's over? ”
Lan Ping laughed so hard that his glasses almost slipped off the bridge of his nose, and he held his glasses with his hand, finally controlling his laughter, and replied, "You really think so." It stands to reason that you have been dealing with us for so long, so you should have some basic understanding of us. There is no experiment that requires the continuous killing of poor young people in a big city like Guanhai and then throwing their bodies into the sewers.
And basically, the joint professors' conference prohibits this kind of behavior that could cause panic and make life difficult for everyone.
"If I were you, I'd suspect that this serial murder was done by a magician."
Chen Guangda interrupted Lan Ping's rambling: "In my opinion, it's not strange that a group of crazy people do anything. How can you be sure that this incident is not the work of some of you who went crazy through experiments? ”
Lan Ping spread his hands: "On the contrary, I can be sure." That's why I'm here to keep you from going in the wrong direction. ”
Chen Guangda laughed: "You actually think that we will believe the words of a madman? ”
"First of all, I want to admit that something is wrong with me," Lan Ping raised his right hand and tapped his temple with his index finger, "The principles of the world have ruined my brain, and I will not deny this." But as a scientist, I'm still sensible.
"And I also believe that with the witchers who are guided by pragmatism, a certain degree of consensus can be achieved."
Chen Guangda: "A sane madman? Are you making fun of me? ”
"What's wrong with that? It seems to me that there is no contradiction, madness is mainly reflected in the way I act, and reason is mainly reflected in the fact that I am a logical person.
"I'm going to go straight into your lair of people who want to kill me for my head all the time, it's my madness, and my sanity makes me believe that I can convince you with logic."
Chen Guangda stood up: "Then I will tell you with my actions right now that your reason is wrong, your reason is not called reason at all, it is just your assumption." ”
"Of course you do, Captain of the Witcher District." Lan Ping leaned back in his chair, and the old god looked at Chen Guangda with the old god present, "Because you are a madman like me, I am too familiar with the stubborn smell of you, and then Professor Tao Li of the Freudian school also proved my judgment in your psychological analysis." ”
Chen Guangda stopped and looked back at Lan Ping suspiciously: "You diagnosed me?" ”
"What's wrong with that?"
For a moment, Chen Guangda felt that everyone he knew had become a second or fifth boy - the Freudian school had to face to face for diagnosis and had to talk, who was it?
But he immediately controlled his chaotic thoughts.
- No, it's their ploy! The Freudian school is best at this, spreading suspicion and subtly influencing people's minds.
Chen Guangda looked at Lan Ping expressionlessly: "Thank you for telling me that there is still a Freudian professor hidden in this city. ”
Lan Ping smiled, but said something else: "If my prediction is not wrong, the person who will listen to me should almost arrive." ”
Before he could finish speaking, the door of the interrogation room slammed open, and Marsha's father, Ma Zili, rushed in.
"Lan Ping!"
"Ah, my old friend, here you are!" Lan Ping wanted to stand up, but forgot that his hand was handcuffed to the chair with a long chain, and he suddenly strained his wrist and fell to the table in pain.
The old horse rushed up to him and lifted him up with both hands by his clothes.
"Hands! My hands are still handcuffed, you tap it, it's going to break! Lan Ping said continuously.
Ma Zili roared angrily: "On the day you escaped from the dimensional prison, I asked the prime minister to hunt you down to the ends of the earth!" If it weren't for America's troubles in the East China Sea, I would have to go into battle to confront America's magic legions, I'd have gone. How dare you reappear in front of me now? ”
"Isn't that bad? You can send me to Dimensional Prison again, there will be a lot of rewards, but this time you may have to share them with these witcher boys. ”
Ma Zili let go of Lan Ping's collar, took two steps back, shook his head, and said, "No, you won't go to the dimensional prison this time, if you can escape once, you can escape a second time." I don't know how you can do it as an associate professor......"
"Professor," Lan Ping corrected again, "professor." ”
"What the hell do I care you are, you have to die here today." As the words fell, a sword appeared out of nowhere, floating above the old horse's head, and the blade of the sword pointed directly at Lan Ping.
Lan Ping: "Ten years ago, you sent me to the dimensional prison and got a lot of rewards, if it weren't for this, you have lost so much in the past ten years, and you would have gone bankrupt a long time ago, I am your benefactor, Ma Houye, you are so much your benefactor?" ”
"If you die here today, I will get a lot of rewards, and it just so happens that I am very tight on funds now!"
Lan Ping showed a regretful expression: "Okay." But are you really going to fight here? The headquarters building, as well as the surrounding neighborhood, will be in ruins.
"If you've made up your mind, do it."
Ma Zili gritted his teeth and blew his beard and glared, but the sword floating above his head still didn't shoot at Lan Ping after all.
"That's right, let's have a good talk, and you can send me to the dimensional prison to receive the reward afterwards.
"If you don't want to listen to me now, if something big happens in Guanhai Mansion in the future, you will all take the blame, and none of you will be able to escape."
Chen Guangda turned his head to look at Ma Zili.
Ma Zili continued to blow his beard and glare at Lan Ping, and after a few seconds, he sighed, put away his sword, and glanced at Chen Guangda.
Chen Guangda snapped his fingers, and an enchantment opened in the interrogation room, not only did the person on the other side of the one-way glass lose the picture of the interrogation room, but all the observation equipment also failed at the same time.
Ma Zili sat down in the position where Chen Guangda had just sat and crossed Erlang's legs: "Tell me about it." ”
"You should know that in a big city like Guanhai, doing experiments requires the approval of a joint meeting of professors."
As soon as Lan Ping started, Chen Guangda sneered: "It seems that there are still a lot of mobile rewards in Guanhai waiting for us to catch them." ”
"Yes, you're right, are you suddenly very motivated?" Lan Ping teased indifferently, "Anyway, in a big city, we don't want to make too much of a move." Tests should be reported to the joint meeting, and large-scale and dangerous experiments need to be approved by the joint meeting.
"We've even started to set up public labs in satellite cities and further ravines, which we'll rent to members to conduct the most dangerous experiments."
Chen Guangda shook his head again and again when he heard this: "You are telling us this, it is simply strengthening our belief in eradicating you, do you know how many people die tragically every year because of your experiments?" ”
Lan Ping: "On this point, I would like to say that you demon hunters are mainly responsible for this. It's because you're always hunting us down, so we have to live in the city and hide ourselves with crowds. You have killed all the scientists who live in seclusion in the mountains, away from the crowds.
"And your control over all kinds of materials also makes it difficult for us to obtain the materials we need for the experiment, so we have to live in a city with developed logistics and abundant materials.
"As long as you don't arrest us, we can hide away from the settlement and conduct experiments, and the casualties will be greatly reduced."
Chen Guangda: "You are quibbling! ”
Ma Zili: "Enough, let's get to the point." ”
"We have always had a special task force to deal with unreported experiments, dangerous experiments conducted under the cover of joint meetings, and occasionally we will deal with non-scientific incidents that could implicate us.
"This serial murder case, we are naturally quietly investigating, because you will definitely habitually think that we are doing something."
Ma Zili: "So what? What did you find? ”
"We've found the killer." Lan Ping threw out shocking words.
Even an old fritter hunter like Chen Guangda had a slight change in his expression.
He and Ma Zili glanced at each other, and then waited for Lan Ping to continue.
Lan Ping: "However, we found the murderer's method, which is more ...... Compared with science, there is certainly no way to present evidence in court. See what I mean? ”
"You tell us who the killer is, but we can't apply for an arrest warrant, right?" Ma Zili said.
Lan Ping snapped his fingers.
"Hou Ye is good at talking, this murderer, even if Ma Hou Ye comes forward, if there is no ironclad evidence in his hand, he may not dare to touch him."
Ma Zili frowned.
Chen Guangda: "How do I know that you are not lying to confuse the public?" ”
"Of course you know, Captain Chen, because your knowledge of our abilities and techniques is enough for you to understand the evidence I am going to provide you."
Chen Guangda: "Hmph, I won't know until I've seen it." ”
"There's a memory in my belongings, you can have someone take it in right now, and I'll give you the password." Lan Ping said.
Ma Zili said, "Even if you don't give us the password, the demon hunters can crack it." ”
"Of course, of course you can. This thing is just used to prove that I am very sincere. Here's what I really want to trade: we can set a trap for you, charge this glove of colluding with Frankenstein, and you'll be able to capture him. As long as he is accidentally killed during the arrest, no one will find out the truth.
"In doing so, you have stopped the serial killings, and you have been rewarded for your attempts to sabotage the evil school of science.
"And we have a stable external environment - you have too many catchers and mages patrolling the streets these days, and it has had a huge impact on our normal scientific research activities."
Ma Zili thought for a while and shook his head: "I don't trust you." Your profit on this trade is too small to be reasonable. ”
Lan Ping smiled: "Of course we will get more than that. ”
"Oh? Tell me about it? ”
Lan Ping spread his hands, and the shackles on his hands were gone.
Ma Zili and Chen Guangda were like great enemies, staring at the professor in front of them.
However, Lan Ping did not make a difficulty, he said: "The password is 'Sunrise in the East', you first read the things in the memory, and then decide whether to cooperate with us." I'm not going anywhere. By the way, I'm a little hungry, so please prepare me a barbecued pork claypot rice. ”
Ma Zili stood up, said to Chen Guangda, "Give him a bowl of rice and a plate of vegetables", turned his head and walked out.
Lan Ping shouted at Ma Zili's back: "By the way, I'm a scientist, and I'm not familiar with high-level magic, but if it's magic that can only be activated by killing so many young children in a row, theoretically it should be very powerful, right?" ”
Ma Zili looked back at Lan Ping.
"Don't look at me, I don't know what kind of magic it is. But you should be able to see some clues from the birth date of the deceased child, the five elements, and the place of death, etc., right? You are all powerful archmages, and you can't see it until now, because you preconceived that this is science and experiment. ”
Ma Zili glanced at Chen Guangda again.
Chen Guangda: "I'm going to organize magic experts to re-analyze the existing information. ”
