"I see!"
Gu Fan finally connected all the clues he could find and glimpsed the truth of the whole incident!
"Dong Can should be in the mage tower of the treatment center now, I must leave immediately, you better speed up your march a little more. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 After Gu Fan said this, he hung up the communicator again, then clenched the baseball bat in his hand, and rushed towards the direction of the mage tower at the maximum speed he could reach.
"Hey, hey! How did you know that little brother was in the Mage Tower? The leaf worm on the other end of the communicator was really a little confused about Gu Fan's words, but he still wanted to continue to get to the bottom of it, but Gu Fan over there hung them up again.
Lucifer, who was on the side, nodded thoughtfully, and after thinking for a few seconds, he suddenly realized: "I see! ”
"Huh? What do you mean by that? Ye Xiaoworm saw Lucifer's look of "I already know what's going on", and couldn't help but exclaim: "Why am I the only one who hasn't figured out the situation yet!" ”
"It's a bit complicated, let's talk about it as we go." Lu Xifa didn't answer Ye Xiaoworm's question at the beginning, but urged him to hurry forward, after all, every extra second of night, Gu Fan was more dangerous.
……
Since the distance between the electrotherapy area and the Mage Tower was not very far, it took Gu Fan about ten minutes to run to the bottom of the Mage Tower, and also cleanly killed the two guards under the Mage Tower, and successfully arrived inside the Mage Tower.
Although the entire mage tower looks tall and narrow on the outside, the space inside is not crowded at all, even if there is a circular staircase around the wall, the remaining area is still considerable, Gu Fan did not delay too much time on the first few floors, but went directly to the top floor, of course, he did not let go of the various rooms on the way, for fear of missing any secret room or something like that, just hiding Dong Can, who disappeared without a trace.
"Kick, kick, kick."
With a rush of footsteps, Gu Fan came to the door of the dean's office, he was cautious by nature, he would never break into the door directly, but now it was the time of 100,000 urgency, he didn't care about any dangers such as traps, he simply and rudely kicked the wooden door open, but the scene in front of him made him stand still......
……
I saw that the entire dean's office was empty, the desks and chairs he had seen before had all disappeared, and in the empty hall, only Niu Yongxin, who was dressed in a pure white robe, was left standing by the window on this floor, and in the center of the dean's office, there was Dong Can, who did not know his life and death, and it was worth noting that on the floor under him, there seemed to be a blood-red magic array that had expired.
Gu Fan was stunned for a moment, then quickly rushed forward and helped Dong Can, who didn't know whether he was alive or dead, but found that although he was not in a coma at the moment, he was already angry, and his whole face was shrouded in an abnormal layer of black gas.
"Brother Gu...... What are you doing here. Dong Can struggled to open his eyes that were almost closed, looked at Gu Fan's face with a confused expression, and finally said such a sentence.
"Dong Can......" Gu Fan at this moment, but apart from his name, he couldn't say a word.
"Brother Gu...... I'm dying. Dong Can raised his right hand, which was finally able to move, put it on Dong Can's shoulder, and said with some bitterness: "I'm afraid I won't have a chance to win the national championship of KOTA." ”
"Yes, I know." There were only a few braziers in the mage tower itself as lighting tools, and at this time, Gu Fan's face flickered with the change of light and darkness in the surrounding environment, he touched the back of Dong Can's head, and found that it was really the same as the corpses of the two teenagers he had checked before, all of which were slightly dented.
"I'm sorry. I would have had a chance to save you. Gu Fan, who was half-kneeling on the ground, supported Dong Can to prevent him from falling, and his voice was a little low: "I am actually an undercover sheriff who came to investigate Niu Yongxin's criminal evidence, you could have temporarily accepted their treatment, and then rescued you after I collected the criminal evidence...... I'm sorry I couldn't trust you. ”
But after Dong Can's eyes lit up suddenly after hearing this, he said with some surprise: "It turns out ...... You're a sheriff, no wonder...... Actually, it doesn't matter, it's my own choice. ”
After hearing this, Gu Fan buried his head lower, as if he didn't want Niu Yongxin, who was standing on the side to look at him with interest, to see his expression clearly.
"Brother Gu, I want to ask you for one thing......"
Dong Can used his last strength, put his head as close to Gu Fan's ear as possible, and muttered in a voice that only Gu Fan could hear.
Gu Fan listened carefully to Dong Can's last words in this world, nodded solemnly, and assured in a serious tone: "Don't worry." ”
After hearing Gu Fan's affirmative reply, Dong Can seemed to have no worries anymore, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up a small arc, and then his head tilted, and the whole person leaned on Gu Fan, and there was no more sound......
……
"It turns out that you are an undercover sheriff, but you have deceived me." Niu Yongxin looked at Gu Fan, who was still holding Dong Can's corpse in the center of the hall, pointed at him with the thunder and lightning staff in his right hand, and sneered: "Seeing your companion die in front of you, this shouldn't be a good feeling." ”
"What if I say I don't?"
Niu Yongxin was stunned, he didn't seem to expect Gu Fan to be able to say such a sentence without any fluctuations, but he didn't know how to continue for a while.
"Unfortunately, no." Gu Fan slowly placed Dong Can's body on the floor, then slowly stood up, raised his head, and stared at Niu Yongxin, who was still subconsciously touching his beard, expressionlessly: "Dong Can is an e-sports genius, he could have joined a professional team and won the pinnacle of e-sports games, but the cruelty of reality made him die here in the end." ”
"I've known him for a short time, and even though it's been a short time, I still think he's a good boy."
"But I will not grieve for his death, because I know that grief is the most useless emotion, and it can neither make me stronger, nor can it make you feel compassion...... I just regret that an esports genius who could have received a lot of attention in the near future like those magical geniuses has fallen, which is very unworthy and unseemly. ”
Niu Yongxin seemed to have temporarily put away the thunder and lightning staff that had been raised because of Gu Fan's words, with a somewhat penetrating smile on his face: "Seriously, I can't bear to kill you." ”
"Thank you." Gu Fan was still staring at Niu Yongxin in front of him motionlessly, but at the same time, he slowly took off the human skin mask on his face: "I think you are probably very strange, how did I find this place." ”
"Indeed." Niu Yongxin completely put down the thunderbolt staff that he had just held in his right hand at this time, and replied noncommittally.
Gu Fan stared at the staff in Niu Yongxin's hand out of the corner of his eyes, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but he still said coldly on his face:
"Okay, I'll explain it to you."
