The extremely bad nature, the scope of influence is wide, and if it is not handled well, it will cause big trouble, which is the original definition of this "murder in the city" by all parties involved at present.

However, as the investigation of Li Mengxi and Hinata Nayin progressed, everyone already knew that this incident was actually not as significant as imagined.

Because, first, the murderer has a clear goal, that is, the victims are a specific minority, and second, the "killing in the city" is only a special prop called the "Seven Killing Stones", and there is no possibility that the basic order will be destroyed.

However, this "everyone" who knows the truth is not all players. As a result, they are still in danger in the eyes of the vast majority of people.

This fear of everyone's danger is the root cause of the riots in the city of Hatsuba.

At this time, it was the death of Sey-Bach that brought about a sudden change in the situation. Because he died in his hotel room, it seems to those who don't know the details that even personal housing is unsafe.

In fact, when Li Mengxi and Hinata Nain went to the scene to investigate, the rumors had been transmitted to the streets and alleys at an alarming speed. By the end of the day, almost everyone in Hatsuba City knew about it.

In this context, the first to sit still is not the life group that has always hated taking risks and is used to living a peaceful life, but the combat group that often licks blood from the knife edge.

Exploring mazes, raider dungeons, hunter-gatherers, performing quests, etc., there is nothing that is not related to the daily work of the players in the battle group.

The only place that really relaxes their nerves is in towns that are absolutely safe zones. Therefore, when they know that this kind of place has disappeared, you can imagine how depressed and angry they are in their hearts.

They hadn't had much of a break since the "Murder in the City" incident, and when they learned that there was no place to sleep peacefully, they finally broke out.

Tonight, the players in the battle group based in Hatsuba City took action spontaneously. They were heavily armed and launched a massive search for suspects in the city.

But how do they know who to search?

Therefore, the essence of this operation is to forcibly interrogate anyone who is suspicious. As for the questionable criteria, it is up to the wise to see the wise. There are even suspicions that it is a conspiracy of NPCs.

With an unclear purpose and a lack of unity of command, the battle group's actions tonight were doomed from the outset to turn into an emotional riot.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for conflicts between guilds and teams to appear in various streets, and then gradually changed from searching for suspects to disorderly, city-wide chaos.

"By the time I escaped, the city was still in the heat of fighting. When he had said and done, Sinaps concluded.

"Alas!" After listening to what was happening in Chuye City at this time, Li Mengxi sighed, "I had expected a similar situation, but I didn't expect it to be so soon. And although it is still only the first leaf city, if the incident drags on any longer, sooner or later it will have to expand to all the main cities, and then to other towns and villages. ”

"Yes, since everyone has been trapped in this game world, the pressure caused by the disconnection with reality has been accumulating little by little, and this incident is like a fuse. That's why I'm here to find you. How's the investigation? Is there a murderer's eyebrows?"

"......" Li Mengxi wanted to say Langdon Alain's name, but he couldn't say anything when the words came to his lips. The doubts in his heart, those things that he couldn't figure out, were preventing him from drawing conclusions.

"Is there something unexpected?" Seeing Li Mengxi open his mouth slightly but close without saying anything, Sinaps asked.

"It's none of your business. Li Mengxi replied angrily.

Sinapus was not annoyed, but continued to laugh: "It's because it's okay, that's why it's convenient to say." There's a saying that 'the bystanders are clear, and the authorities are confused', isn't it? ”

Hearing this, Li Mengxi thought silently for a while, and felt that it was reasonable, so he confided his inner distress.

"I see. After hearing this, Sinapus scratched his head with a bitter expression, "Hmm...... How so...... Do you even know you're not alone?"

"What?" asked Li Mengxi with an inexplicable expression.

"Don't understand? With that, Sinapus stood up.

"Hey, you're leaving!"

"I'm just having fun, and I'm not going to solve your problems. That's all that is good. However, if anything changes to Hatsuha City, I will definitely let you know. After all, everyone is responsible for this incident. Well, bye-bye. ”

With that, Sinapus opened the door and departed.

Since this guy is leaving, Li Mengxi will naturally not stop him. Immediately, he lay on his back on the bed.

"Not by yourself. ”

He couldn't help but smile as he read the words that Sinapus had left.

I'm not alone, that's what he said. Of course I'm not alone, I still have Nain's partner by my side......

As soon as he thought of this, Li Mengxi suddenly had a feeling of sudden realization. Looking back carefully, after the investigation began, Hinata Nain has been following him and obeying his words, which is more of an assistant than a partner.

Only this time, for the first time, the two had a disagreement on this matter. Li Mengxi insists on suspecting Adele, while Nayin Hinata prefers to believe that Landon Alain is the murderer.

The same but not the same is the villain, and the gentleman's friendship should be harmonious but different.

That's what Sinaps said.

Thinking about it, Li Mengxi showed a comfortable smile. At this moment, he had decided to suspect Adele to the end, and no longer think about Langdon Alain.

Next, he spent two hours alone in his mind discussing various assumptions. When he finally figured it out, he sent an email to Naon Hinata, writing about what had happened in Hatsuba Castle and an invitation.

Then, Li Mengxi got up from the bed and walked out of the house to the corridor in the dead of night.

After a while, the door panel of Adele's room was opened a little bit, and Nane Hinata cautiously walked out of the room.

She shed her combat uniform and changed into somewhat loose aqua blue pajamas, her long hair tied in braids over her shoulders.

Looking at Nayin Hinata who was walking towards him in this posture, Li Mengxi was a little distracted.

"What's wrong?" asked Naine Hinata seeing the other party's stunned look.

"Nothing, I just haven't seen you in your pajamas yet, and it feels a little fresh. But is this really good? in case something happens......"

"No problem. If he was wearing a combat suit, Adele would be even more uneasy. I don't want that. ”

"Then you have to be careful. ”

"Of course. ”

"By the way, Adele didn't notice it, did you?"

Hearing this, Hinata Nain turned around and leaned against the wall of the corridor, her face a little sad.

"Hmm. She nodded and said, "As you said, I didn't wake her up...... Mengxi, even if this happened, are you still suspicious of Adele?"

After a little silence, Li Mengxi nodded firmly.

"I'm sorry. ”

"Huh. Naine Hinata laughed unexpectedly, "I knew that you were still you, a guy who loves to drill horns." ”

Then, she stood face to face with Li Mengxi again, also revealing a firm gaze.

"However, I decided to believe that Adèle would not be the murderer. You're not going to force me to change my mind, are you? ”

"Well, the gentleman is harmonious and different. So, Nain, I've decided that we'll split up for the time being. ”

"Do you have anything you want to look into?"

"Seven Killing Stones. ”

"Haven't we heard about the Seven Killing Stones from Mr. Röntgen?"

"Is that really all? Nayin, you think about it. At that time, I left Monsieur Röntgen with you in a hurry. He didn't really finish his words. ”

"Do you think there's any other information about the Seven Killing Stones? ”

"Not necessarily. All I can say is that I went to prove my hypothesis. And during this time, you're in charge of the Langdon Alain line. Don't worry about me, just arrange your plan according to your ideas!

"However, this event is entrusted to you ......"

"Don't think about it! Nayin, I just figured it out. We are partners, not that you are my assistant, but that I am your assistant, but partners! So, since you've decided, you just have to do what you want!"

Looking at Li Mengxi's sincere eyes, Hinata Nain nodded solemnly.

"Leave it to me! I'll prove I'm right!"

"Well, I'll leave now. ”

"Now?"

"Yes. Go early and come back early. Anyway, I don't want to leave you for too long. ”

Hearing this, Hinata's cheeks flushed.

Why does this guy always say such ambiguous things unconsciously!

Thinking like this, she calmed down.

"Me too. Be careful all the way. ”

"You're going to have to be careful! That Langdon Alain still has a lot of tricks. ”

"Do you think I'm weak?" Hinata asked on tiptoe, leaning against Li Mengxi's face.

"Uh...... That's right. Li Mengxi couldn't help laughing, "Then, goodbye." ”

"Hmm. Good bye. ”

After the words were closed, Li Mengxi turned around and took steps towards the stairs.

Hinata watched his figure disappear before quietly pushing open the hidden door and returning to Adele's room.

In the dark corridor, only the bright moonlight reflected the original appearance of the object.
