At the same time, Lin Mu also came to the underground apartment where the old Carl once rented, and found the room where the 'suspected terrorist' lived.

Standing in front of the door, he vaguely heard the sound of movement inside, hesitated for a moment, and then raised his hand and knocked lightly on the door.

"Knock knock!"

"Who is it?"

The woman's voice inside the door was a little flustered, and after a while, there was another crisp 'click', and Lin Mu knew that she had loaded a gun.

It seems that Old Carl's intelligence is correct, and the other party is indeed very suspicious!

This thought flashed through his mind, he cleared his throat and said softly: "Hello, I am from the Urban Energy Administration, and we suspect that someone is using excess electricity in this privately run apartment, so we are checking every room." ”

Check for excess energy usage, which is a common surprise check in cities.

Residents in Evra do not have access to electricity, but everyone can only use a fixed amount of electricity, and if they exceed the limit, they will have to pay a fine from the Energy Authority.

The woman in the apartment seemed to relax a lot when she heard this reason, and the rapid heartbeat that was clearly audible in Lin Mu's ears became calmer. I just heard her say, "Wait a minute! ”

"Please come in!"

Moments later, a woman with a child in her arms opened the door.

She was dressed in pajamas, in her early twenties, with short brown hair that was a little messy, dark circles and bags under her eyes, indicating that she hadn't had a good night's rest.

She was obviously a little careless, and it seemed that she didn't even think to check Lin Mu's documents, or rather...... She's avoiding any trouble.

"Excuse me!"

Lin Mu stepped into the door, his eyes scanning the furnishings in the room, and asked, "Have you used high-power electrical appliances recently?" ”

"No, there are basically no other appliances in this room except for cooking and bathing and that TV." Gently shaking the sleeping child in her arms, the woman shook her head.

Nodding, Lin Mu moved his gaze to the child and smiled, "What a cute little guy, how old is he?" ”

"In your early years, why are you asking this?"

Frowning slightly, the expression on the woman's face became impatient, and said, "If you don't want to check, then I have to ask you to leave!" ”

"Sorry, I'm just curious!"

With an apologetic smile, Lin Mu walked to the only table in the room, stopped, and looked sideways at the woman who had become a little nervous.

"In fact, I'm really curious, a mother of a child, why would she do such a dangerous thing?" Stretching out his right hand and holding down the sugar jar on the table, the expression on Lin Mu's face became cold.

"I don't know what you're talking about?"

In an instant, the woman seemed to understand something, her face turned pale, and her steps slowly retreated towards the door.

"You don't know? No, I think you know! ”

Shaking his head, Lin Mu opened the sugar jar, took out a small pistol from it, and sighed, "For civilians, this is enough contraband to send you to the Inquisition. ”

When the hearing sensitivity is to a certain extent, the problem can be detected through some details. For example, the gun hidden in the sugar jar, as early as outside the door, he judged by the sound where the woman hid it.

Of course, if you want to do this kind of thing, you need a certain amount of skill.

The woman hesitated for a moment, then turned around and wanted to escape, but ...... Lin Mu, who had been prepared for a long time, appeared at the door as soon as her body moved, blocking her only way out of escape.

"Click!"

Gently closing the door, facing the trembling woman, Lin Mu said calmly: "Don't be nervous, I'm not from the Inquisition, I just have a few questions I want to ask you!" ”

"What do you want to know?"

Holding her child tightly, the woman looked sideways at the electronic clock hanging on the wall, and her face couldn't help but show an anxious look.

Clearly noticing this, Lin Mu frowned slightly, and said, "Are you going to blow up the Governor's Mansion tonight?" ”

"Blow up the Doge's Palace?"

Stunned, the woman was confused: "What are you talking about?" ”

"I'm saying! You guys...... That is, the devouring snake, is the plan to blow up the governor's palace tonight? Lin Mu took a step forward and immediately appeared in front of the woman, snatching the child from her hand.

"Give me back the baby!"

With a scream, the woman pounced on Lin Mu with her teeth and claws, but when Lin Mu raised the pistol she was holding in her hand, her body stiffened and she could only stop moving.

"Please! Give me back the baby! ”

There was a pleading look on her face, and seeing that Lin Mu was unmoved, she immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Please!" I really don't know what you're talking about! ”

"You don't know?"

Frowning slightly, Lin Mu said in a deep voice: "About a week ago, someone heard that you had called someone else in this room, and the content was that you were planning to blow up the Governor's Mansion in this city!" ”

"Oh! My God! ”

The woman stretched out her hand to cover her mouth, her eyes were red, tears flowed down her face in an instant, and she shook her head and said, "No! You're lying! There's no way Nathan could do something like that! ”

"Nathan?"

Hearing this, Lin Mu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that Old Carl didn't say whether the people living in this room were men or women, but only told him what he had overheard.

Thinking about the woman's performance, and the Eater Snake he knew, he immediately came up with an answer.

This woman who looked powerless...... It shouldn't be a member of the so-called Devouring Snake!

Putting the child on the bed, he stepped up to the woman, tore her collar, lifted her up, and said in a deep voice, "Tell me! What do you know? ”

Finding that Lin Mu didn't seem to be ready to hurt the child, the woman breathed a sigh of relief and hesitated for a moment before she spoke: "My name is Linda, Nathan is my husband, we originally lived in City Six, and he is ......"

With the woman's story, Lin Mu was sure that he had indeed found the wrong person.

According to the woman named Linda, about a few weeks ago, because her husband, who was away on a mission, had not contacted her for a whole week, she went to the branch of the knight's hall where Nathan worked to look for her.

There, she got the startling news. Nathan didn't go on any mission at all, and he hadn't even been seen in the knight's hall for weeks.

Unable to contact Nathan, she entrusted a friend to find the apartment through the last spending records in Nathan's personal account.

Three days ago, she came to the city alone, explained the situation to the landlord, and after obtaining the key to the room, she temporarily lived in the empty apartment and began to look for clues in the room.

As a result, in addition to a few firearms stored in the secret compartment of the room, she found a ring representing the Eater Serpent, but her husband never returned.

When she heard the knock on the door just now, she thought it was the snake eater who came to her husband, and she was so nervous.

Seeing that she didn't look like she was lying, Lin Mu put her down, and just as she was about to continue asking questions, the screen of the TV in the room suddenly lit up.

"Sorry to bother you!"

A chestnut-haired man appeared on the screen, only to see him bow slightly, then straighten up, raise his right hand with the Ouroboros ring, and speak: "My name is Jack, and as you can see, I am a member of the Snake Eater. ”

His eyes widened, and Lin Mu walked to the TV.

I saw the chestnut-haired man continue: "Today, I only want to prove one thing! ”

The angle of view of the picture begins to slowly move downward, and a metal suitcase appears on the TV screen. The chestnut-haired man gently opened the box, revealing the sophisticated and complex instruments inside.

"I want to prove to you that those who break their oaths will be punished!"

Smiling slightly, the chestnut-haired man reached out and pressed the red button in the box. Suddenly, Lin Mu suddenly heard a loud explosion, and at the same time, he felt more and more violent tremors coming from his feet.

Hearing the chilling 'creaking' sound, his face changed, and he immediately picked up the woman and the child, stomped open the door, and his body turned into an afterimage, and rushed out of the underground apartment in an instant.
