Chapter 207: Do You Know Rabbits?
"It's not an exaggeration."
Xu Nan coughed and comforted: "And it has nothing to do with you." ”
"By the way, how did you end up at Stephen Sand?"
Green glanced at the other two and realized that they really didn't seem to care about the conversation between the two of them, so he motioned for Xu Nan to walk to the side for a while, and then began to whisper.
It turned out that after leaving Wildfire City, Green had been wandering aimlessly, and he went out to sea along the port of Bantuo to take a walk near the Eastern Cross Islands, where he experienced some complicated events.
Eventually, he decided to follow a Warlock Ron he met on a ship and join an independent organization within Paradise Lost.
He had come to Stephen Sand to do something for the Warlock, to procure a very rare raw material from Stephen Sand on behalf of their organization.
Their independent organization is called Beauty and Wine, a very cheesy name, but it is quite influential in the alchemy world, as they are the most industrialized and mass-produced alchemy items among the many independent organizations in Paradise Lost.
These organizations are also some of the people who benefited the most after Xu Nan signed the white paper with Stephen Sand.
According to Green's own words, the news of Stephen Sand's purchase this time was very secretive, and he came here mainly to sign the contract and explain the follow-up matters, and his whereabouts were basically unknown to outsiders.
He had only arrived at the second roundabout today, and if he had to make a feud with someone, he wouldn't even have a chance.
So, being attacked today is actually very blank for him.
Unless, that person is really randomly targeting Paradise Lost.
After briefly talking to Green for a few words, Xu Nan had a rough idea in his heart.
At the same time, he was more and more impressed by Green's changes.
In just a few months, his changes are not only a transformation in temperament, but also a more confident and layered conversation.
It seems that not only has it increased its charm, but it has also greatly improved its intelligence - Xu Nanke remembers very well that Green's previous intelligence has always been only nine points.
It seems that the blessing of experience on men is still obvious.
……
After a brief reminiscence, both fell silent.
Xu Nan looked at the law enforcement duo.
To be honest, Akai's actions tonight made Xu Nan feel a sense of distrust in his heart. If it weren't for Emma, Roger and others who endorsed him invisibly, plus the identity of the Six Apostles, Xu Nan really felt that this guy had a big problem!
How can anyone come up and knock people unconscious?
Even if Thomas is an inner ghost, why didn't he go along with the vine and choose to scare the snake instead?
These are all things that Xu Nan can't understand.
At this moment, Akai was questioning the homeless man, and from time to time he flashed his huge fists wrapped under purple gloves. Fortunately, the bloody scene that Xu Nan was worried about did not happen - probably because he saw Thomas's miserable end, and in the face of Akai's inquiry, the homeless man knew almost everything.
And the picture on the other side is a different style.。
Akai's partner was very gentle, she wore elegant white silk gloves, gently stroked Thomas's face, snow-colored arcane symbols flashed, and soon, Thomas's face was enveloped in a graceful but somewhat evil white film.
He seemed to be able to breathe, but the white film wrapped around his head, making Xu Nan shudder a little - but her movements were so gentle and freehand, as if she were treating an elaborate work of art.
Violent Demon Hunter + Deaf Mind Warlock.
This kind of combination is rare in the whole world, not to mention Stephen Sand.
The Psychic Warlock class is a very rare type of spellcaster. Strictly speaking, the Psychic Warlock certainly belongs to the branch of the Warlock, but the Psychic Warlock has the ability to tap into its own potential that is difficult for ordinary Warlocks to have, so it is not the same as ordinary Warlocks.
Of course, unlike Warlocks like Ron Warlocks, who rely on super bloodlines, Psychic Warlocks require more subtle soul qualifications—a point that even the top Arcanists of the Arcane Empire can't explain. Only the monarchs of the world of the dead or the gods who specialize in the soul can understand a little bit of the mysteries of the Psychic Warlock.
In short, psychic manilocks are very rare. They often have souls that are beyond the ordinary. Because of this, such people are easily targeted by the gods and deceived by the church into becoming believers.
There weren't many people with psychic qualifications, and at least nine adults ended up being ascetics, fanatics, or virgins.
Among the remaining adults, the vast majority of them will be unable to successfully develop their super talents for various reasons, and will eventually have to spend their lives as ordinary people.
To make matters worse, most of the people who possess the qualifications of psychic sorcerers are physically handicapped—whether they are born or acquired—and it seems that the will of the world will only be attached to those who have suffered the injustices and difficulties of fate.
In short, a successfully developed psychic warlock is undoubtedly a very strong late-stage profession, they can see through people's hearts, they can see through fate, and at the same time, they also have a very mysterious spiritual power in the universe - psionic energy.
It is said that this is very similar to the path that the warrior monk explored after the legend.
"The ability she uses seems to be a bit similar to a spell-like spell, I haven't even seen her spell casting action, as if she naturally has this extraordinary skill......"
Xu Nan is actually quite interested in the Psychic Warlock, after all, in a sense, there are similarities and overlaps between the specialization fields of psionic energy and the Apostle of Desire, but unfortunately Akai seems to care about this woman very much, Xu Nan just pondered how to try to talk, but he stopped him fiercely with his gaze.
At the end, the female psychic warlock greeted Akai, then smiled sweetly at Xu Nan and Green, and suddenly disappeared into the alley with Thomas.
A bright purple light pierced through the sky, and its handsomeness was comparable to Xu Nan's imaginary flying of the imperial sword......
"What a dick......"
The two Ron Warlocks sighed in unison.
At this time, Akai also seemed to have finished the questioning, and he walked over with the homeless man in one hand.
"Are you done talking?"
"Five minutes haven't come yet, well, thirty seconds left."
He looked down at his watch and looked at Xu Nan.
Xu Nan said calmly: "The chat is over." ”
"Good."
Akai pointed at Green and said, "You can leave, be careful when you walk at night in the future." ”
Green didn't move, he looked at Akai, and said without humility or arrogance:
"About this man, I wonder why he attacked me."
"I think I should have that right."
Akai frowned, as if he didn't expect Green to continue to entangle.
"Stephen Sand hasn't been in a good position lately."
Akai said in a tough tone: "He is going to attack everyone who passes by this small alley, can you tell me why he is walking this alley?" ”
Green was stunned for a moment, his expression seeming to become a little embarrassed. Finally, he shook his head:
"I have no other questions."
Xu Nan frowned.
It seems that Green is not telling the truth to himself, at least, there are key parts that are being hidden.
He was also very dissatisfied with Akai's actions, and hoped that he would at least give an explanation for his self-assertive behavior just now.
But Akai suddenly winked at him after sending Green away.
He took a deep breath, temporarily suppressing his desire to ask questions.
Then, according to Akai's plan, the two sent Green to a relatively safe place to live and left.
The homeless man was found by Akai for a while and hid in a safe house on the second roundabout.
By the time all this was done, it was already late at night.
"Now, can you give me an explanation?"
Xu Nan sat on the airship bound for Stephen Sand, and finally couldn't help but ask.
Akai replied as he drove the spaceship:
"Which part?"
Xu Nan said toughly: "Every part!" ”
"You've seriously sabotaged my plans!"
Akai shook his head: "I'm not very good at explaining to others. ”
"But you're right, I went to check the evidence you said, and there were no flaws, and I found some other problems with Thomas...... Let's just say that I've been too busy lately, and I've been entangled in another thing, so I ignored Thomas's anomaly. ”
Xu Nan couldn't help but roll his eyes: "This is not the reason why you directly attacked Thomas for no reason. ”
"Isn't it good to touch melons along the vine? No matter how bad it is, it's okay to seize it first? Could it be that you can't subdue him without harming him? ”
Akai snorted coldly: "You'll know in a while." ”
"We're going to Thomas's house right now."
"If my guess is correct, they shouldn't have noticed it by now."
Xu Nan said coldly: "I hate playing dumb riddles. ”
Akai sighed deeply, he set the spaceship to autopilot mode, then turned around and looked at Xu Nan seriously: "Although I only speculate about Thomas's matter, like you, I am ninety percent sure." ”
"But I can't say it now, don't ask me anything, I can't say it, I can't say it."
"But the identity of the attacker, I can reveal something to you."
Xu Nan was unmoved.
Akai said to himself, "That man's name is Mordir, and he is an alchemist. ”
"He is the president of the Second Roundabout Stone Masons Union, and his status and prestige are very high, and he is the kind that responds to every call."
"He attacked that friend of yours to prevent a special contract from being signed. It is said that this contract is related to the life and death of the stonemasons' union. ”
"You also know that since the white paper was signed, more and more business cooperation has taken place between Stephen Sand and Paradise Lost; At the same time, a large number of Stephen Sand's local alchemy workshops were hit by an important blow – the Stonemasons' Guild was the representative organization of the second roundabout's indigenous alchemy industry. ”
"Cheap alchemical items from Paradise Lost continue to occupy the market, and the things of the Masons Guild cannot be sold."
"What's even worse is that you people in Paradise Lost not only want to suppress the Masonry Guild in terms of ordinary products, but also have their eyes on a special alchemy product."
"And that alchemy product needs a raw material that only Stephen Sand can produce."
Speaking of this, he glanced at Xu Nan:
"You can guess by now why he attacked your friend who came to sign the contract, right?"
Xu Nan nodded a little heavily.
"But how did he know Green's whereabouts? And that little alley? ”
Xu Nan was keenly aware of the key point.
Ahead, the main city of Stephen Sand is already visible to the naked eye.
Akai quickly activated the braking program, and then opened the window ventilation duct:
"I suspect that Thomas deliberately leaked it to him, and he should have anonymously instigated Modir to take action as soon as possible to stop this contract."
"At the same time, he wants you to be involved in the capture of Mordir; If I'm not mistaken, according to Thomas's plan, tomorrow morning, the picture of you capturing Mordier with your own hands will make the headlines of Stephen Sand's major newspapers. ”
"Think about it, what would happen like that?"
Without waiting for Xu Nan to answer, Akai got off the spaceship by himself, and then said:
"The already disgruntled Stonemasons' Guild will burst out their pent-up resentment, the alchemy of the gods has ignited the flames of violent resistance among the alchemists, and the conflict with Paradise Lost has made it easier for them to vent their emotions."
"The relationship between Stephen and Paradise Lost, which was gradually repairing, will soon have a huge crisis."
"When the time comes, Lao Tzu's work will be even more troublesome......"
Xu Nan took a deep breath.
This was something he guessed when Akai analyzed it.
Thomas can indeed do this, and if he does, the purpose is also obvious - the alchemists will be distracted, the identity of the sneak attacker in the back of the head will not matter, and after the huge conflict between Stephensand and Paradise Lost has erupted, the law enforcement team probably has no energy to care about the real murderer who inexplicably attacked the innocent person in the first place.
He did this to cover up the real murderer!
So, who is the real culprit?
Xu Nan's heart was pounding.
At that moment, he seemed to have entered that mysterious state again, and the level of insight was raised again!
……
"Wait."
"Are we going to Thomas's house like this?"
"You mean, he still has accomplices?"
Along the way, Xu Nan couldn't help but ask.
"We don't need any other preparation or support?"
After all, there are only two of them, and there may not be only one or two murderers in Thomas's family.
It's not that Xu Nan is instigated, it's just that this kind of thing is encircled and suppressed, isn't the more people the better? Or is the manpower of the law enforcement team really strained to this extent?
Akai looked calm and confident: "Support? Of course not. ”
"Actually, I'm enough for myself."
"As for the preparation, I still want it."
He suddenly looked left and right on the empty street, and turned back to ask Xu Nan:
"Do you know rabbits?"
Xu Nan was stunned for a moment, his face full of question marks.
"I need rabbits." Akai explained.
Xu Nan thought about it and took out a roasted whole rabbit from his crotch.
Akai: "......"
"The rabbit I'm talking about is the living kind, with red eyes, and it's very cute."
Xu Nan wondered:
"Why are you so picky?"
"It's not healthy to eat a living thing."
"Besides, in the middle of the night, where am I going to get you a live rabbit?"
