Chapter 285: Panic
A puddle of red slowly spread from under the head that had fallen to the ground, spreading into an irregular shape, growing larger and larger, and joining the puddle next to it.
Xiao Huang's horror was not small, he reacted quickly, and flashed a step to the side, but his legs trembled so much, if he didn't hold on to the table, he might have to sit on the ground.
The most terrifying thing is that there is a killer in your vicinity who has already claimed several lives, but you still don't know where he is or how he will do it.
Turning his head to look at Adrian's direction again, Adrian was still looking this way faintly, but the screams of Lanaya, who had buried her head in Adrian's arm, seemed to have changed her taste, and she seemed to be frightened by this extreme scene. Adrian didn't say anything, just touched Lanaya's back.
As soon as there was the first scream, it would be a second, and in less than a moment, the deafening screams filled the entire restaurant, and all the passengers who were eating fell into a state of panic and rushed to the exit like a tide.
During this period, the sound of porcelain cutlery and metal knives and forks falling to the ground, the sound of tables and chairs being pushed is incessant, and if anyone accidentally stops someone, they have to endure the sound of swearing on their heads and faces.
But there are only two exits in the whole restaurant, and the two black crowds are just blocked there, no matter how much they push, they just can't take a step forward.
Someone could have accidentally bumped into something, and the lights in the entire restaurant suddenly went out, and the screams set off a new level in the darkness.
"Alright, alright. Adrian patted Lanaya, told her to stand up, and whispered in her ear, "You're too impulsive." ”
"That middle-aged man has already seen your face. Besides, he is a person who does not want to gamble and lose, and he will not give up unless he is dead. Lanaya snorted, "I don't believe there's anyone on this ship who is your opponent!"
Adrian sighed helplessly, this is good, Lanaya has also put the blame on him. In fact, let alone Adrian, even if it is from these passengers, it will be difficult to find someone who can be Ranaya's opponent.
Adrian left his seat, walked over to Xiao Huang, and said, "Let's go, don't stay here." ”
"This ...... What the hell is going on?" Xiao Huang was following Adrian, but he never dared to get too close, he tried to ask, "Did you kill them?"
"It's not. ”
Xiao Huang opened his mouth, and now he was even more puzzled. Whoever the assassin was, he had helped him! He thought about it, and only the person who stood with him would do such a thing, but next to him, there was no one else except Adrien and Lanaya.
Yellow set her eyes on Lanaya, who was beside Adrian. If it weren't for Adrian, wouldn't it be ...... Could it be that she can't do it?
Lanaya silently tucked the sleeve gun strapped to the inside of her forearm into the ring, and almost at the same time, the lights came on again with a "snap", and the noise of the exits on both sides also subsided.
The three of them were only less than two meters away from the outermost crowd at this time, and suddenly the crowd poured back, and a voice inside shouted: "Get out of the way, I'm the chief of affairs here, get out of the way!"
Soon, the crowd moved out of the way, and a middle-aged man in uniform walked through it, followed by a long line of people.
Lanaya fixed her eyes, wasn't it Ballen who followed the second, and it was not difficult to deduce that the people behind were all those from the stealth department, but Arno and Merry were missing, and the rest of her acquaintances were basically inside.
"The murderer may be in the crowd now, please be safe!" said the middle-aged man in uniform with a loud voice.
It was useless to shout, in order to appease the people, the whole ten-meter-long procession, after leaving the crowd, left four people, connected in a semicircle with their backs to the crowd, guarding the back row of the crowd, standing straight.
The rest of them twisted around the many dining tables and walked to the scene of the crime, led by the middle-aged man in uniform who pulled out a cordon and blocked the surroundings.
Grinthe, who was closest to the three Lanayas, soon saw the three of them as well, and kept glancing at them.
"Why are you following the chief here?" asked Lanaya as she walked over to her.
Grint glanced at the cordoned off area over there and whispered, "Mr. Chief is a relative of Ballon, and he called us over at the beginning, saying that he wanted us to help maintain order among the passengers. ”
The power of connections is so powerful!" Lanaya thought.
"Are there dead people here? Do you know who did it?" asked Grint.
"I don't know. "No matter how it is explained later, the truth cannot be told now, and a person like Grintor, who is prone to fuss, cannot keep a secret!
"Ah......" Grint showed a worried expression, and finally said, "It's okay if you're okay......"
"What do you mean, and you're not letting anyone go?" shouted a man near the exit.
"I'm sorry, now we need enough time to find out the murderer, and you can't go out yet. Ted stopped at the door, apologetically.
"I'm not a murderer, look, do you look at me like someone who can kill someone?" the man first pointed to his nose, and then squeezed out with all his might, "There were so many people who went out before, why don't you say that the murderer has escaped?"
Ted didn't speak, just blocked the entrance to the passage, and the man had no choice but to retreat in frustration as he couldn't match Ted in strength.
"This is Xiao Huang, a friend I met in the library. Lanaya introduced to Grinte, and when Lanaya looked at Xiao Huang, she nodded at him slightly, which was to tell him that this person, as well as those standing next to her, and those who followed the chief of affairs, were with her. As for whether Xiao Huang will understand it or not, it depends on his understanding.
"Hello. Grint smiled at Yellow.
Xiao Huang naturally said something, but his eyes were still mixed with uneasiness at this time, and after greeting him, he looked towards the chief of affairs.
"The diameter of the wound is less than one centimeter, there are remnants of psionic aura in the wound, and the strength of psionic energy is level thirty-nine......" The chief of affairs frowned together, his face was very serious, level thirty-nine, this is already a very terrifying height, this is not something he can control, this is a passenger ship, not a battleship! Where did he go to find a person who could compete with this killer?
Fortunately, there happened to be so many people from the Hidden Sanctuary this time, and the head of affairs said to Ballen and them: "The basic situation of this murderer is the strength of the thirty-ninth level of spiritual energy, and the murder weapon used is very likely to be a gun-type triggerer. You're helping me these days to find the murderer. The ship is on the sea, and no one will slip away. ”
Those people all nodded, and among them, Hailin's face changed slightly, a sniper who can reach such a height, Adrian's psionic strength does not match this, and the people he knows ...... Only possible Lanaya.
"The identity of the deceased, I need to investigate further. You inform the people over there of these situations, and then, if it has nothing to do with this incident, you can let it go. The chief of affairs pointed in the direction of the exits on both sides.
Two of them used the ring to contact their companions at the exit on both sides, and had the people on the other side relay the message.
The passengers were let go one by one, and the number of people who flocked to both ends gradually decreased, and finally only those of the Hidden Sanctuary remained.
In the process of letting the passengers release their spiritual energy, they also learned a piece of information, none of the passengers present were beyond the Xiaocheng realm, let alone the thirty-ninth level.
When the chief clerk learned of this information, his face was very gloomy, and he said to Ted and Rosen, who were gradually walking towards them, "Have you recorded the room numbers of these passengers?"
"Noted down. ”
"There are still rooms that are not recorded, you must check them as soon as possible, so that nothing is missed. ”
"Good. ”
"Go now. ”
The two looked at the chief clerk, looked at each other again, and walked in the direction of the restaurant's exit.
The chief clerk watched the two leave, then turned his gaze to another place.
In that place, it was none other than Lanaya, Adrian, and Yellow who were standing.
"I'm going to lock down the entire restaurant, why don't you get out of here?" said the dean.
"They are with us. "Now that all the irrelevant people are gone, Grint stepped forward.
"Hello. Lanaya took the initiative to extend her right hand, on the one hand, out of friendship, and on the other hand, to let the other party see her amethyst ring like everyone else.
The Registrar behaved as a gentleman in this regard, gently squeezing the outstretched fingertip of Ranaya, and smiled back in the same way, without the slightest hint of it.
"You should know about my relationship with Ballon. Since they are all family members, if you find anything in the past few days, you can just come to the office and report it, and if I am not there, report it to others. This time things are causing a lot of panic, so be careful when you go back to rest. ”
"Thank you for your kindness, but it's not evening yet. Lanaya smiled, "It's nothing at the moment, I want to help you investigate the identities of these deceased people and help you ease some of the burden." ”
The chief clerk looked Lanaya up and down a few times as if he was not worried, and Adrian next to him spoke, "I'll come along." ”
"What about you?" said the chief to Xiao Huang.
"I, I'm a little urgent......," Huang scratched her hair.
"Release the psionic energy to show me. ”
Xiao Huang glanced at the chief of affairs with some confusion, stretched out his hand, and a light purple spiritual energy light cluster lit up, looking at the composition of its aperture, it was level twenty-six. The chief of affairs was a little surprised, it was not easy to find such a person among the ordinary people, but because his spiritual strength did not match the murderer, the chief of affairs could only wave his hand and said, "Okay, you can go." ”
