Chapter 50: Twisted Love and Hate
Russell took the elevator again and returned to the first floor of the Hive nightclub.
There are more people in the elevator when going down than when going up...... But fortunately, this time I didn't meet a passer-by big sister who likes to catch people's tails.
Russell didn't wear a mask. But just by looking at the back, you can see that he is clearly a teenager...... A boy.
Boys who can enter the Hive nightclub can actually be regarded as a smile mask whether they wear a mask or not.
And the person wearing the smile mask is itself part of the "user experience" of the customer with the crying face mask.
Since it is positioned as an "entertainment product", it is also a very reasonable situation to be accosted while walking on the road - and no wonder.
Russell pondered in silence.
The situation is clearly not right.
Judging from that recording, the other party knows the inferior and the delphinium very well...... But I don't know anything about myself.
If you start from this point of view...... Is there something that the inferior and the delphinium don't know, but might know themselves?
That's what Russell had just learned from the Tower of Babel about the burgeoning mage organization in the lower city.
- Behind the Xiao Liuli incident is the emerging mage association called the Curtain of Ignorance.
Now that you know this.
So the reverse is the way around...... The suspected demon traces on Xiao Liuli's body are related to the curtain of ignorance?
Russell thought the answer should be no.
Originally, Russell thought that there should be a demon behind the kidnapping of Xiao Liuli, who infected Xiao Liuli's demonic aura and lured the inferior to assassinate him.
But looking back now, this possibility is a bit reluctant.
The first is the demon - how do they have a demon that is not detected until it hatches, and how do they control the demon from cannibalism to cause mass disappearances?
And the plan to seduce the inferior to assassinate him looks more like a casual layout. There isn't even any high-level oversight here, just four outcasts here. The Iron Mask, which houses the Leader's Will, is also placed on the eighteenth floor instead of the first floor.
From this point of view.
Russell guessed that the chief's purpose was not to assassinate the inferior - although he said this to Xiao Liuli and the four or five people, the leader lied to them. His real purpose is still inferior. And from the very beginning, it was an inferior.
He has a special preference for the inferior...... A somewhat Gotham-flavored preference.
- The real purpose of that man was to let the inferior kill the elf with his own hands.
Judging by the reactions of the elf and the inferior one, it seems that he did have such thoughts.
If you think about it from this "Gotham flavor", Russell vaguely guesses the truth of the matter:
The inferior may be different from his stinky face, a victim who truly walks the path of justice.
And if he kills innocent people with his own hands in order to save others, he may kill himself to erase the evidence of his crime.
As for the purpose...... Perhaps it is to keep the symbol of "inferior" from being tarnished. Or maybe it's to not disappoint someone, or to keep someone from thinking they've seen through him...... It's all possible.
- But if the inferior discovers that the child he killed is an elf. He couldn't kill himself.
If it is an ordinary person who kills, then the inferior can indeed forcibly escape justice by committing suicide. After all, one life for another.
However, the life component of the elves is different.
If the child he killed was an elf, the matter would have been investigated.
Then in the end, the suicide of the inferior becomes "suicide in fear of sin".
So he had to live.
If the delphinium fails to crack it in the end and stays in the impression space, it will become a vegetative person; If Delphinium is lucky enough to escape by retreating before the third level, it is entirely possible that she will be forced to bear the crime...... After all, there is always someone to blame for this.
Then with the sense of responsibility of the inferior, he cannot choose to escape - he must confess all the crimes himself, take all the responsibility he can as much as possible, and become a murderer.
In addition, the inferior has to watch the delphinium that has been killed by himself and turned into a vegetative person or a responsible person, and watch Russell, who has just become a hero, "die for him" in the assassination against him. He wants to survive and feel the remorse that he brought about sacrificing his important companions on the way to practicing "justice".
- All of this, one link after another, is simply designed to torment the inferior.
Such a strong hatred, such a vicious conspiracy.
Just thinking about it made Russell's heart tremble.
It's too twisted.
And will such a person really be laid out with such a simple result as "killing the inferior"?
No way.
For "that person", it is better for the inferior to live than to die.
Then, Xiao Liuli can't be a demon trace that was deliberately contaminated.
Because it's just an idle move...... The other party knew that the inferior would not come at all, and it didn't matter at all whether Russell died or not.
All he needed was "Russell in danger" and needed the inferior to rescue the situation.
It doesn't matter which demon is being investigated or which mission is being performed.
Then, there is no point in infecting Xiao Liuli with the breath.
This will only waste a lurking good shadow for no reason, but it may also let the inferior person investigate it himself because of the importance of Xiao Liuli's identity. So that his plan could not be completed.
But what if it's the other way around?
It's Xiao Liuli who has shown signs of demonization...... So the other party planned to waste and lay out this situation?
While destroying the small glass logically, a big wave will be given to the inferior.
And the information passed on to Russell by Minister Delphinch confirms Russell's idea.
That's a lot of information about the underground singer codenamed "Blue Song Robin".
At that time, Lan Ge Gong was also involved in a car accident, and Lan Song Robin's fiancée. She was a pony-dependent girl with long black hair, only twenty years old. Because I haven't graduated from college yet, I don't have a code name.
But the girl did not disappear immediately, but received the best possible treatment, and disappeared three months after being discharged from the hospital.
It is worth noting that neither Blue Song Robin nor his fiancée's family is well-off, and Blue Song Robin chose to become a resident singer in part because of the high college tuition for girls. The girl's family simply could not afford to pay for such expensive treatment, but I could not find a record of loans and debts. Therefore, it is suspected that the Blue Song Robin made an agreement with an organization to pay for his fiancée or to cover the cost of treatment. ”
"Blue Song Robin" once sang at the Hive Nightclub.
It's like the Catwoman with a blue ponytail that Russell saw in the hall when he first came in.
At that time, he was not famous, and it was completely different from Xiao Liuli, who became popular on the entire Happy Island later......
Yes.
"Him".
At that time, the blue song robin was not the girl idol it is today...... It's a real man.
His soul relatives are not folded ears cats at all, but blue song robins.
Because the blue song robin's instinct as a songbird is to sing. That's why he chose the path of music.
