Chapter 94: Seven Killing Stones (15)
In the living room of Adele's room, Naon Hinata sat at a round table by the window. She guarded two breakfasts, her eyes staring straight ahead but not paying attention to anything, and all she was working at was her brain.
When she separated from Li Mengxi last night, she said "I will prove that I am right". But how, exactly?
The best way to do this is to catch Landon Alain as Li Mengxi said, and let the incident end. This will naturally prove Adele's innocence.
But this is not easy to say, you must know that even Li Mengxi failed to catch Langdon Alain, I think this person must have quite strong skills.
And just as she was pondering, the bedroom door was slowly pushed open, and Adele, who had changed her clothes, walked out.
Last night, she slept in the same bed with Nayin Hinata, and woke up this morning with only one person left. Although she knew that Naine Hinata would not leave alone and that there should be something else, she was still uneasy.
At this time, she confirmed with her own eyes that Naon Hinata was sitting there, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then walked over briskly.
"Good morning, Nain. ”
When he came to the table and saw that there were two breakfasts, Adele said again gratefully.
"You're going to get me some breakfast. Thank you. ”
Hinata Nain, who was thinking about the problem, didn't react for a while, and when she came back to her senses, she only heard the word "thank you", and then she answered.
"No thanks. ”
"How much?" asked Adele as she sat down as she looked at the sumptuous meal in front of her.
"Money, what money?"
"How much does breakfast cost?"
"Ah, this one, there aren't many of them, so it's worth making amends. ”
"Reparations?"
"Hmm!" said Hinata with a ashamed expression, "Yesterday, it can basically be said that it was our negligence that frightened you. ”
Listening to Hinata's mention of yesterday's events, Adele turned her head to look at the last empty chair in front of the window. Yesterday, Celington was killed in the middle of a conversation with her, shattered into splinters of light before her eyes.
Now the "relics" on the chair and the ground are gone, and I think they must have been put away by Naine Hinata.
In fact, Adele doesn't have to look at things and think about people at all, and what happened yesterday is still vivid in her mind, and she can't forget it.
"Alas!" she sighed sadly.
Seeing this, Hinata's original old shame has not disappeared, and new shame has come up again.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned it. ”
Hearing this, Adele turned her head and smiled indifferently at Nain Hinata.
"It doesn't matter. That guy actually has a bad personality since he was a child. I sometimes think that if he dies one day, it would be nice if everyone didn't put up the lights. After calming down last night, I also felt like I could forget about it quickly. However, childhood sweethearts are childhood sweethearts. ”
"I'm sorry. Hinata lowered her head and apologized again, then raised her head suddenly, "Well, is there anything I can do for you?"
"Nain, don't blame yourself! Adele, who saw Hinata Nain's psychological state, hurriedly explained, and then smiled embarrassedly.
"However, there is one thing I want you to help me with. ”
"What's the matter!" As if she had been redeemed, Hinata said with heartfelt gratitude.
"You see, there are only four of us left in our former teammates, and Mr. Alain has become a murderer. I always feel that something is wrong, and I want to meet the remaining two people and talk to them. ”
"That's right. The remaining two people are ......."
As she spoke, Nane Hinata materialized her notebook and flipped to the page where the list of stuffed clothes was transcribed.
"Haydn Laika and Bud Moore Valley. Where are these two people now?"
"Haydn is now a member of the 'Sail Thief', and Bud is a member of the Twilight Forest, neither of whom I can visit casually. That's why I wanted to ask you for help. ”
"Hmm...... It's a bit difficult. As he spoke, Naine Hinata, who was staring at the two people on the list, showed an embarrassed expression.
"Jinfan Thief" is the younger brother of "Pandora", one of the four major guilds, although it is far from excessive, but it is inevitable that the backstage will go sideways. "The Lin of Dusk" is a strong battle guild that once followed the footsteps of the four major guilds, with a suffocating rhythm of strategy. Both sides are unreasonable.
I just don't know what the status of Haydn Laika and Bud Moore Valley is in the two, if it's just a normal member, I can try to ask for it. But if you already have a certain status, it's not like you can just call it around.
However, it may be feasible to ask Mr. Lauren Thomson to formally invite in the name of assisting in the investigation. After all, he had said that the various guilds, including the four major guilds, were very cooperative with this investigation.
After thinking about this, Naine Hinata showed a cautious expression.
"I don't know if I'll be able to actually find them, but I'll try my best. ”
Although he did not receive the necessary guarantee, Adele still showed a grateful smile at this time.
"That's it. Thank you, Nain. ”
"No! this is what I have to do. So, let's eat. ”
"Hmm, aren't you going to call Mr. Li?"
yes, I haven't said anything about that guy yet.
At the thought of this, Hinata Nain smiled awkwardly.
"He's gone a little farther away to gather information. I can't figure it out and I won't be able to come back all day. We don't have to wait. ”
"That's right. With that, Adele picked up the spoon.
So, Naine Hinata secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. If Adele continued to ask, she would have to lie. There's no way, you can't tell Adele Li Mengxi to confirm the hypothesis because she suspects her, right?
Therefore, Adele did not ask for details, which made her feel relieved.
"I got moving. Immediately, Nayin Hinata, who was relaxed, said polite words and picked up the spoon as well.
The two of them spent thirty minutes leisurely eating breakfast and chatting for a while. After that, Nain Hinata gave Adele a few words and walked out of the room, went to the hallway and dialed the phone.
She was reaching out to none other than Lauren Thomson.
"Excuse me, Mr. Thomson, I'm Naon Hinata. She stood by the window facing the street and pressed her right index finger lightly on her ear. This action has no practical meaning, it is just a habit of concentration.
Then the man's deep voice rang out in his ears as if it were coming from his fingers.
"Oh, that's Hinata-san. Is there something going on?"
"Well, before that, I want to tell you a piece of news......"
"If it means that you and Li Mengxi acted separately, and you were in charge of the victim for the time being, Li Mengxi had already contacted me earlier. ”
Hearing this, Hinata Nain was startled at first, and then smiled self-deprecatingly. If Mengxi's personal situation changes, he will definitely notify the client as soon as possible, which is a matter of course, and he is really worried about it.
"So, what's your business?" Lauren continued to ask on the other end of the line.
"Actually, I'd like to ask you for one thing...... "Hinata then conveys to Lauren Thomson that she wants to bring together the two remaining people who have been selected as the target of the killing. And, of course, the organization that these two people are now in.
"It's easy to help us with our investigations, but it's also convenient for us to protect them. In the end, Naine Hinata said a high-sounding reason. She also understands that it is not easy to convince the other party just because of the reason that "Adele wants to see".
"Hmm......" After a slight silence, Lauren spoke. "There's some truth to your request. But, Miss Hinata, have you thought about it? These two men, plus Adele Thomas on your side, brought the three of them together, although it was much easier, but it was also convenient for the man named Langdon Alain to catch them. ”
Hearing these words, Hinata's expression changed suddenly, but it was not a lonely disappointment or a melancholy that could not be done, but a sudden realization. The word "caught in a net" turned into a flash of inspiration in her mind.
"Yes, it's all in one place!" she said, a little excited.
"Ah, Miss Hinata, with all due respect, are you a little excited? What the hell is going on?" asked Lauren incredulously.
"As you say, Mr. Thomson, bringing the three together is a good opportunity for the murderer to 'catch the killer'. But at the same time, it is also an opportunity for us to lure him to show up!"
"It's kind of interesting. Lauren Thomson said in a somewhat playful tone, "Miss Hinata, I will come there in person in the afternoon, and we will meet in person at that time." ”
"Afternoon!" Hinata said with some surprise. She also expected Lauren Thomson to ask for a specific plan right away. If that were the case, where would she have something to say when she suddenly thought of the idea? So, in addition to being surprised, she was also a little glad.
"That's right. Of course, Lauren Thomson didn't understand what Hinata was thinking, but only replied to the surprise of others, "I think Miss Hinata should already know about the commotion that happened in Hatsuba City last night." ”
"Well, I've heard it's quite confusing. How's it going?"
"Fortunately, there is a detachment of 'Camelot' stationed in the vicinity, and there are also some personnel of 'Oberiske' in the city. In the early hours of the morning, with the mediation of both parties, the matter finally calmed down temporarily. But only temporarily. Next, I'm going to get the messy guys to disband and go home, and I'm going to have a press conference-like thing and a little bit of the information I've gotten so far. ”
At this point, Lauren Thomson smiled sarcastically. Whether he was proud that he could finally get a big scene, or mocking himself for a drudgery, Hinata Naine couldn't tell at all, but there were only these two kinds of things.
"So, even though I want to hear from Hinata about my plans right now, I can't find the time. Therefore, we will only talk about it in the afternoon. I'm still looking forward to this project. So, see you later. ”
The conversation was closed, and Lauren Thomson hung up the phone unilaterally.
Immediately, Nayin Hinata also let out a long sigh.
Unexpectedly, Li Mengxi's words before leaving became a prophecy, and she had to devise a more or less feasible plan for the arrest of Landon Alain in the next few hours.
In order to achieve this goal, you should first consider what advantages you can take advantage of.
Although, Hinata Nain's skills are not simple, especially in magic, but since the other party can escape from Li Mengxi's hands, she doesn't feel that force alone can solve the problem.
And apart from this, if there is anything else that is particularly superior to ordinary people, it is only the "friend list" and the "wallet".
As soon as she thought of this, Hinata Nayin thought about it and couldn't help but hook the corners of her mouth.
