Chapter 10 Speculation

Li Su looked up, only to see countless fragments falling around him, like an array of medieval archers shooting an overwhelming rain of arrows. But the Dustless Land once again blocked everything, and his hands didn't even hold his own weapon.

"Where were you when Lucas was most desperate?!!!" The girl didn't back away like she had before. She picked up a Scottish broadsword that had been hanging on the wall and rushed towards Li Su, the sword raised above her head and slashed vertically.

"Where were you when Lucass died?!!" The sharp blade collided with the dustless place, making a metallic hum. Before she could shake the dustless land, the reaction force from the blade of the sword had made it almost impossible for the girl to hold the thick weapon. But the girl did not let go, but slashed in vain on the surface of the dustless land, as if she were mad.

"Why didn't you show up then? Why didn't you come out to protect her then? Or is this part of what you call 'law in the shadows'? You and they are the same thing!! ”

Li Su didn't answer, he was still waiting, waiting for a message.

"Mr. Li Su, I just checked. Aurora Castle is a Belgian castle, but I have not found any cases related to this castle, and the body of Miss Lucas Arlene, whom she just mentioned, was found in her home a month and a half ago, and the police judged it to be a suicide. ”

"Okay, got it."

Once again, the Scottish broadsword slashed at the surface of the Dustless Lands. But as the girl was about to withdraw her weapon as before, a hand reached out from the ball filled with shards and grabbed her wrist. Her fingers were numb, and she uncontrollably let go of the long sword in her hand.

"That's it." She felt a chill on her forehead, and his other hand was already pressed against her forehead with a pistol, the surface of which glowed with a cold glow peculiar to metal.

"Shoot! Shoot! Kill me here! Let it all end! The girl walked forward with the muzzle of the gun, gritting her teeth and turning pale.

Li Su hesitated. Not for fear of killing the girl by mistake, the reduced-charge Frigga bullet does not cause fatal damage. What made him hesitate was the girl's eyes. What kind of eyes are they, and you can feel the bitter despair in them just by making eye contact. The moment he looked at her, Li Su only felt a chill down his spine, and the hand holding the gun almost pulled the trigger.

"What the hell happened before?" He thought about it, but he couldn't help but ask.

"What is the need to say it?" The girl's eyes were like a pool of stagnant water. "You're going to kill me right away anyway."

"It's just a tranquilizer, I said I was here to capture you." Li Su shook his head. "But if you tell me the truth, things might turn around."

"You're going to let me kill him?" There was a little more sparkle in the girl's eyes.

"No, but he may be reconvicted by us. The so-called law in the shadows is not much different from ordinary law. He stuck Glock back in the holster, hoping to gain some trust.

"His sins can only be cleansed by death, but there is no death penalty in ordinary law." The girl apparently had no desire for this exchange.

"It's unfortunate that our side is a little sluggish and still has this thing."

"Sluggish...... Is it? The girl smiled mockingly. Same result, so why not just let me kill him? He's going to die anyway. ”

"It's not the same. Render to God what is God's, and to Caesar what is Caesar's. Li Su reattached the hook and button and pulled out two chairs from the rubble. Are you willing to tell what happened? ”

The girl was silent for a long time, and slowly sat down on the chair opposite Li Su.

"Don't worry, we have a lot of time, you can sort out the order and listen to my judgment by the way." Li Su paused, the girl did not object, and he began to tell the ins and outs of his intelligence sorted out.

"It all started 10 years ago at Fort Aurora, or at least 10 years ago." Li Su pondered the words. "Of the three dead that I have gathered, including the Croll who was lying on the ground wailing, three of them had been to Belgium, and the last person was a Belgian nobleman, and the Aurora Castle you mentioned before was his property."

The girl lowered her head and said nothing. didn't get any feedback from the other party, and Li Su didn't know how much he was right.

"According to the entry and exit records, ten to fourteen years ago, Kak, the guy you killed at the top of the pillar of life and death, had many entry and exit records between Belgium and Norway, and this Kroll traveled between the two places slightly less often than Kak. Penrose, who fell to his death in front of the town hall, had only been there once, but this time coincided with the records of the other two. ”

Li Su clasped his hands in front of his chest and said his conclusion: "The above is the information I have gathered, and it is not difficult to guess what is going on from it. When they went to Belgium together, they kidnapped and even worse the Lucass Arlene you mentioned earlier, leaving a heavy psychological shadow on Lucas, which is still indelible after more than ten years. A month and a half ago, the long-accumulated pain erupted, and Lucas hanged herself in her own home. ”

Li Su glanced at the thin thread that was still tied to Kroll's body, and the dried blood stains on it.

"And that's the piano wire she used to hang herself." Li Su twisted the thread and rubbed it with his fingers. "At 0.05 millimeters, it's almost the thinnest of the kind, and it's not hard to imagine how you would feel when you found your friend's body."

He let go of his fingers and let the thread hit the ground. "And then you tied up those two guys with this piano wire, sent them high in the air, and then let them free fall. Perhaps you also used the Wind King's Pupil to speed up the process, which is why the corpse was shattered like this. ”

"Of course, I still have some things I haven't figured out." Li Su spread his hands. "For example, Penrose, who fell to his death, I still haven't figured out how you managed to push him down the stairs and appear in the square at the same time."

"It has nothing to do with me, he jumped off himself." The girl glanced up at him, then lowered her head again.

"Why?"

"Who knows? Maybe I can't stand the torture of conscience. ”

It's hard to be convinced...... Let's agree with you for now. Li Su clapped his hands. All right. That's all I extrapolate about the whole thing, do you have anything to add? ”

"You're right a lot, like how I killed them, like ...... I felt when I found Lucas. The girl slowly clenched her fists. She suddenly raised her head, and Li Su couldn't see through the expression on her face at all. "But for the past, your imagination ...... It's really poor. ”
