Chapter 537 - Catching a Big Fish
On this day, Huo Xingming came to the Star Boundary alone.
"Yo, Helen hasn't seen you for a long time. ”
Helen was embarrassed, "Didn't we just meet at Aaron's wedding two days ago?"
Huo Xingming explained, "Two days on the earth, one month on the astral boundary!
"You say that twenty days is a long time in front of a man like me, who has lived for hundreds of centuries?"
Huo Xingming shrugged helplessly, "Okay, don't say polite words, let's get down to business," as he spoke, Huo Xingming's expression suddenly became serious, "Has the prisoner been caught?"
Helen shook her head, "Not yet, but the detection of the land and sky of the astral boundary has not been turned off for a day, and the space-time fluctuations of the astral plane are also very stable, and any people entering and leaving are now under my surveillance." ”
"So the only thing you know for sure now is that the man hasn't escaped the astral plane yet?"
"That's right, it's impossible for her to escape! I'm not qualified to say it anywhere else, but this is my world, no matter how strong the other party is, no matter how capable he is, if he wants to make waves in the astral boundary, he will definitely not be able to escape my eyes!"
Huo Xingming nodded slightly after hearing this, "That means that the prisoner has been hiding in a very secret corner of the Star Boundary, and has never come out?"
"That's all that can be explained," Helen nodded, "but are you really sure the other party is a succubus?"
Huo Xingming said, "More than ninety percent of the possibility, didn't I let Lan Xinke come and see it once?" She is a succubus herself, saying that the symptoms of those deceased are extremely similar to the injuries caused by high-level succubi, so there is a ninety percent chance that it is a succubus." ”
Helen asked rhetorically, "And what about a 10 percent chance?"
"The remaining ten percent, that is, the people of the astral plane who directed and acted themselves, or Helen, has produced a traitor among you!"
Helen shrugged, "Okay, but what is a succubus doing in my astral realm? Isn't the succubus from Hell on Lucifer's side?"
"Although all demons are Lucifer's people, but in fact the forces in hell are not united, Lucifer is just like what she said, she is not a good leader herself, she is like a warrior, or a general who has to mention if he talks about succubi."
"You're talking about, Queen of the Night?"
"This possibility is not ruled out. ”
Helen frowned slightly, "But as far as I know, the Queen of the Night has been helping you, the time your parents disappeared, the time when the rotten pufferfish, and the ancient giant beast not long ago also provided very important information, didn't she?
"What if her purpose is not me, but to achieve something through me, and I am still useful for the time being, and I can't die? Is it possible?"
After Helen listened to Huo Xingming's theory, the corners of her mouth twitched twice unconsciously, "You said that you are an eighteen-year-old boy, why are your thoughts so complicated?"
"I recommend you to play a few more RPG games, role-playing plot games, and after playing more, you will know that the people who often appear around you and sell you information or help you are definitely not very good people. ”
"Okay, whatever you want, but you don't have to rely on evidence for everything, do you?"
"So I'm here to ask if you have caught the prisoner!" Huo Xingming smiled bitterly, "In case it is really a succubus, I have already said hello to Lucifer, I can directly drive the Keiths to arrest people, maybe I can pull out a long chain reaction, and even figure out who the mysterious woman who has been targeting me is?"
At this moment, Huo Xingming still doesn't know that in fact, the mysterious woman who has been making trouble with Huo Xingming is actually Lilith, the queen of the night, because the impression given by the mysterious woman to Huo Xingming is very powerful, and the impression that Lilith gave Huo Xingming is similar to Huo Xingming's strength in addition to her mouth and brain.
Not to mention anything else, Huo Xingming once asked her out again to test Lilith's strength and casually chatted with some nonsense, after Lilith was angry, Huo Xingming took advantage of the situation and was about to attack his chest, but Lilith did not hesitate to dodge it, but Lilith did not succeed in dodging Huo Xingming's changeable "milk dragon gripper" in the end
Its strength doesn't seem to be acted, although it is said that Huo Xingming was beaten very badly by Zi Xiao and Lilith later.
So Huo Xingming began to guess that Lilith was actually just a pawn behind the woman in black, and she became more and more curious about the identity of the woman in black, if Lilith was really accepted by the woman in black, then the power of the woman in black was a little too terrifying
I don't know what Lilith herself will think after knowing Huo Xingming's conjecture?
However, it is useless to say this now, Helen is right, everything must be done with evidence, Huo Xingming will not be able to move Lilith until he catches the murderer who caused more than forty men to die in the astral realm.
Huo Xingming also let Ophiuchus go to the Demon Hell not long ago, to find out Lilith's reputation among ordinary people, and unexpectedly found that Lilith is respected and worshiped by almost everyone in hell.
On the contrary, if Huo Xingming pretended to imprison Lucifer, but there was nothing to do in hell, the most he could do was to discuss Lucifer's imprisonment after dinner
Prestige is really important, at least Lucifer has the absolute right to speak in hell because of his strength, and he doesn't have enough prestige, in case something really happens, it is estimated that the Seven Demon Kings of Hell will come to the rescue, and once Lilith has an accident, the entire hell will be a soldier
Therefore, Huo Xingming attaches great importance to whether the prisoner can be arrested this time, whether he is alive or dead, as long as it is proved that there is a succubus who killed people in the astral boundary! Huo Xingming has enough reasons to "invite" Lilith to the Keith, "drink tea and eat well", and even do more things.
But what made Huo Xingming more disappointed was that the past ten months had passed in the astral realm, and the succubus fugitive really had no news at all, as if the world had evaporated, but Helen was sure that there was no spatial problem, which meant that the other party had absolutely no trace of leaving the astral boundary.
Therefore, the other party must still be in the astral boundary, but where will it hide?
Huo Xingming thought back and forth for a long time, "Or Helen, take a risk, cancel the astral monitoring circle, and then start to "cast a net to fish". ”
"Fishing?" Helen thought for a moment, "what do you think are the odds of this fish being hooked?"
"At least it's much bigger than your magic circle that has been open to come, since the other party is coming to the astral boundary, it must be here to do something, and since it's here to do something, then there will definitely be some action in the future." ”
"Okay, listen to you. ”
Early the next morning of the astral time, Helen removed the magic circle that had monitored the real astral for ten months, and dismissed all the people who were good at reconnaissance in the astral realm to various places.
But two whole days passed, and there was still no news coming back, but those who went to scout the world began to get impatient.
"Huo Xingming, will the other party also be very good at counter-reconnaissance or stealth or something, and have evaded all our reconnaissance?"
Huo Xingming shook his head slightly, "Succubi can't be invisible, and anti-reconnaissance is just a matter of consciousness, Helen, space fluctuations have always been fine, right?"
"No problem, although the magic circle inside the astral has stopped, but my monitoring of the astral space has always existed, as long as someone tries to enter or go out without my consent, I can definitely track it!"
"Well, that's fine, the "big fish" is to be fished slowly, just out of the sea to fall to a hundreds of kilograms of big fish, this kind of thing is unlikely. ”
Helen smiled bitterly, "No, I mean you don't plan to go back? Didn't you say that there might be some "enemy" eyeliner on the Keith secretly spying on you? ”
Huo Xingming smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this, I didn't bring Zixiao with me when I came to the Star Boundary." ”
"What do you mean?"
"I asked Zixiao to act alone in the room, in other words, I can disappear out of thin air for eight or nine hours without arousing anyone's suspicion, converted into astral time, that is, I can stay for about eighty hours, that is, three and a half days. ”
"Then I'm scared even more"
Huo Xingming couldn't help but feel a little strange, "What are you afraid of?"
"I'm afraid that you will be beaten to death by Zixiao when you go back!"
At this time, Aldebaran hurriedly ran over from a distance, "Helen! Someone near Shining Gold Town saw a strange black shadow moving at high speed in the forest!
Huo Xingming immediately picked up a walkie-talkie in his hand and said, "The fish is hooked!
"Brother Huo, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
Helen picked up Huo Xingming like a chicken, "Don't just go out as a fisherman, the two of us have to go too." ”
"Then can you change the way for a better one? Is it interesting to hold me like this? And compared to the speed, who can compare to Aaron? As long as the other party comes out, there will be absolutely no escape!"
Helen nodded, "Well, for ten months, she can endure enough! I want to see who spent so much of my efforts! I fly!"
"So, Helen, you put me down, I'll fly myself, okay?"
"Oh, I forgot. ”
