Chapter 36: Things

"Isn't joining the academy enough to subvert my cognition?"

Qin Ming was a little surprised by Yi Shaodong's words, but he took it for granted.

Because as early as the entrance test, he knew that Yi Shaodong was by no means simple.

He has excellent mental qualities, has great fighting skills, and at the time was not much surprised by the sneakiness that appeared.

All this can actually reflect that Yi Shaodong is unusual.

He thought that Yi Shaodong would not reveal to him one day, but obviously, he guessed wrong on this point.

It's just that he wasn't sure whether this kind of sharing from Yi Shaodong was his luck or misfortune.

After all, the more you know, the more you are involved.

Although he didn't know what Yi Shaodong wanted him to help find, how important it was.

But obviously, a thing that can lead to death, a behemoth that may involve a transcendent worldly power like the Academy, will definitely not be a good kind.

He was a little scared now.

So much so that it was difficult for him to judge whether he should continue to listen, or immediately stop Yi Shaodong, and then pretend not to understand anything like before.

But he may not have a choice.

This forbidden door seemed to have been pushed open from the moment he stepped on Qingcheng.

So he decided to keep listening.

Because what is due will always come.

What should be known will always be known.

After all, since he was selected by the Academy of Destiny, since he passed the entrance test and completed the spiritual awakening, the world he knew had become very different.

Adapting to the world begins with the first understanding.

So he felt that he should have more information.

Right now, it's clearly an opportunity.

"What do you know?" Qin Ming looked at Yi Shaodong.

"Will you do me a favor?"

Yi Shaodong did not answer Qin Ming's question, but brought the topic back to the original incident.

"Is this a deal?"

"Not really. Even if you don't, I'll tell you some of the things I know. ”

Yi Shaodong made a clear statement, Qin Ming thought about it, and also said:

"I can't necessarily help with that. But you name it, I can try. ”

"Good. So where do you want to start? ”

Yi Shaodong saw that Qin Ming agreed, and he hurriedly asked.

"That friend of yours has been working for an institution that is as detached from the world as the Academy.

What exactly is done.

He's being targeted for something.

It is not known who is targeted.

What exactly he hid, whether it was still there, still unknown.

That's probably the problem, but because the clues are limited, we need to make some assumptions and derive a relatively reasonable answer from the hypothesis. ”

Qin Ming probably sorted out the difficult problems in this matter, and then asked Yi Shaodong:

"Did that friend of yours say who you would give it to if you found it?"

"I didn't say it." Yi Shaodong shook his head.

"Did he say anything else other than reminding you to come back here to find something?"

"No, he was in a hurry when he saw me, and he only said a few words before leaving."

Yi Shaodong thought about it carefully, and then said with certainty.

Qin Ming nodded understandingly, and then continued:

"Your friend noticed that someone was eyeing him, and he hastily gave you a few words, telling you to come to this room to find something very important after his accident.

Can we assume that the reason your friend is being targeted is because of what he is hiding here?

But what needs to be hidden?

Nothing more than confidential documents and precious treasures, as well as important information.

Otherwise, there is no need to hide anything at all.

So I think what your friend is hiding here is in the midst of all three.

The former is the most likely to be, and the latter two are less likely to be.

Because if it's a confidential document or important information, then if you want to prevent this information from circulating, you just need to kill people.

And the purpose of obtaining important information, even confidential documents, should also be for the purpose of transferring it.

And it shouldn't be hidden.

The proof of this is that your friend didn't tell you who to give it to if you found it.

So I analyzed that what your friend is hiding here should be a treasure or something.

At the very least, he wanted to keep it for himself, not for anyone else to get it.

So where did this treasure come from?

There are only three possibilities.

It was originally his own.

Obtained from other people through trading.

and from others, by illegal means.

Or robbery, or theft.

I think it's less likely that it's him, because almost everyone knows the truth of guilt.

If there are good things, they will definitely be hidden, and they will not be easily known by others.

And I don't think it's very likely that it was obtained by illegal means, because in that case, he should be very sure that something will happen to him when he looks for you.

After all, stealing, or snatching such a precious thing, no matter who knows the fate of being discovered.

And with uncertainty, only he got it through trading.

He thought that others did not know that he had this treasure.

But this treasure is likely to have been stolen by someone else, and when it was discovered, the owner knew that it was in his hands.

So whose is this thing for?

Nine times out of ten, I think it's the mysterious organization your friend works for.

This may be the way it works.

The mysterious organization discovered a treasure and sent someone to find it.

This person found it, but he lied that he didn't find it, and secretly traded it to your friend.

Or maybe your friend is the one who was sent out to look for the treasure, and he got it, but instead of turning it in, he hid it by luck.

After the matter is revealed, your friend knows that he will definitely die and will not escape punishment if he hands it over, so he tells you the whereabouts of the thing without being sure.

But maybe it's time short, or maybe it's because I'm worried that you know too much and get involved, so I only reveal a small part of the content.

The purpose is just to let you get that thing and not be obtained by that mysterious organization. ”

After listening to Qin Ming's analysis and speculation, Yi Shaodong couldn't help but agree and said:

"Makes sense, listening to you say that, I think the truth of the matter may be like this! You're amazing. ”

"It's just a logical assumption.

Maybe it's very close to the truth, or maybe it's 108,000 miles away from the truth.

After all, there are many people who do things that don't follow logic. ”

Qin Ming wasn't sure, what he assumed was the truth.

Yi Shaodong nodded in understanding, and Qin Ming continued:

"The intriguing thing about this is not what I just said.

Instead, your brother only told you that things were hidden in the house.

But it doesn't tell you exactly where it is. And what the hell is it.

Have you ever wondered why? ”

"Thought. But I didn't figure it out. ”

Yi Shaodong saw that Qin Ming had an idea, and couldn't help but ask:

"If you have an idea, just say it, don't sell it."

"I guess he can't tell you plainly."

"How?"

"You think, since the person who captured him was the mysterious organization.

It is entirely possible to prove the other party's power to target all those related to him.

Once they find out that you may be in the know, they may be able to get you to speak up after they arrest you, even if you don't say anything.

Then the whereabouts of the thing will be clear.

Tell me something more scary. ”

Qin Ming paused suddenly when he said this, then glanced at the door, and then said in a low voice:

"Oh no, there's someone watching us outside the door right now!"
