Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 449: You can’t protect the people I want to kill
Su Lun cut open the safe in the **** shop with a knife, found the ring he gave to Karma, and then went straight out the door.
The person who pawned the ring was "Rotten Tooth" Kahn of the Viper Gang. That guy was a promiscuous gambler and a frequent visitor to the **** shop. A ruby ring worth millions on the market was sold for less than 100,000 liso.
Su Lun walked out and went directly to a back alley of the leather market, where a group of people were gathered around playing cards.
He looked at those people with his eyes. Unexpectedly, he was lucky and found Kahn in the crowd at a glance.
"Hey, Kahn, how did you get rich and bet so hard today?"
"Tsk, tsk, I did a big job and earned hundreds of thousands."
"Oh, next time there is such a good job, let me introduce it to my brothers."
"That's easy to say."
""
The guy seemed to be lucky, his face was glowing and he had a lot of money piled in front of him.
Besides there were some gang members with viper head tattoos on their arms, and they also carried firearms and weapons.
Su Lun walked straight towards the small gambling stall, and then pulled out the pistol under his windbreaker. Without saying a word, he shot a **** hole in the middle of the guy's head.
"Bang!"
The gunshot and the sound of a head exploding sounded at the same time, and blood spattered on the gaming table.
The gamblers at the same table were stunned for a moment, and then their expressions suddenly changed.
The timid ones had already fled in a hurry, but the gang members thought they had encountered a fight from a rival gang and instantly pulled out the firearms from their waists. But Su Lun didn't give them a chance to shoot at all. He fired several shots in quick succession, directly beating the heads of the other three people who had raised their guns into rotten watermelons.
He didn't pay attention to those who escaped, and directly harvested the gray mist on the corpse. He then learned the information about the other person and introduced the kidnapping "middleman" Rigg Chapman
Su Lun was very familiar with the business of gangsters. He didn't know that these low-level gangsters didn't know the inside story at all and just took money to do things.
Usually between employers and kidnappers, there are also some brokers who wander on the fringes of upper class society.
These guys are usually news dealers with wide connections and wild news channels.
Rig Chapman is such a middleman. He usually hangs out in the upper class circles and specializes in solving some dirty things that are inconvenient for the nobles and rich people.
He also has a good relationship with the cadres of the Viper Gang, and he can be considered a black-and-white figure.
At this moment, in the mansion at No. 16 Martin Street, the fat Chapman had just been awakened on his luxurious bed.
Last night, he had a hard time with the two naked girls next to him, which left him with a bit of energy.
"Gunshot?"
Chapman vaguely felt like he heard gunfire from the leather market one kilometer away, and then he opened his eyes alertly.
As a professional businessman, he felt vaguely uneasy.
Looking back on recent business, it seems that only the urgent task arranged last night had some problems?
Originally, kidnapping was just a normal business, so An just sent people to do it.
But for some reason, after hearing the gunshot, he always felt like his eyelids were twitching.
"It's just a little nobleman with no foundation. There shouldn't be any problems with the kidnapping, right? What's more, it was arranged by the big shot"
Chapman thought in his mind, but he always felt that something was wrong.
Thinking about it, he decided to get dressed and go out to see the situation.
But the moment he got out of bed and put on his pants, he didn't hear any movement at the door, but suddenly he saw someone appear in the room out of thin air.
Before he had time to see clearly what the man looked like, his eyes followed the rolling head and fell to the ground, and then he was completely plunged into endless darkness.
Su Lun peeled off the "grey mist" from the corpse, and finally got the information from his employer: "Marquis Ziyue, Bach family."
Because of his Death Reaper talent, there was no need to waste time on interrogation. In just ten minutes from when he came out of Aberke's hotel to now, he roughly figured out the whole story of the kidnapping incident.
Although the person who entrusted Chapman was not a member of the Bach family, but another person who had close contacts with the Bach family. But as an information dealer, this guy with a moving head also guessed that the person behind the scenes was "Elsa Bach", the eldest daughter of the Bach family.
Su Lun has seen that person.
The noble lady who competed with Kama for first place in the "National Puppet Master Competition".
Obviously, the idea of the investigation has become clear at this point. Most people would think that it was a kidnapping case caused by jealousy of the noble lady.
The eldest lady had a motive, and all clues pointed to her hiring a murderer to kidnap Kama.
There seems to be no flaw in the logic.
But it was because the direction was so obvious that Su Lun became more alert.
He obtained these real situations through reverse deduction of clues,
But what if this line was deliberately arranged to guide?
Suren never underestimates his enemies.
His intuition told him that the matter was directed at him.
Rather than just jealous revenge.
After all, Caroline from Hydra can probably guess her identity.
The Vipers are a gang controlled by Hydra.
Some of the kidnappers are members of the Viper Gang.
The clues are obvious.
And Miss Elsa was not unjustly accused. Although she was instigated to be a gunman, she had harmful intentions.
Even if he guessed it was a game, Su Lun had no intention of backing down.
His eyes flashed coldly, and he thought to himself: "Are you borrowing a knife to kill people? It seems that they are not only trying to lure me into the situation, but they are also plotting something else. Well, I want to see what those guys are planning!"
Thinking about it this way, there are only a few people who have the motive and skills to use a marquis' daughter as bait to provoke a war.
Its purpose is not difficult to guess.
At this juncture when he is about to marry Ekaterina, it is nothing more than a desire to destroy the marriage or a personal vendetta.
No matter what, there is no room for retreat.
Furthermore, the mastermind behind the scenes predicted that Su Lun would find the murderer through these directional clues, and would definitely find trouble for Elsa.
This is also the unsolvable part of this game.
As long as he cares about the safety of his disciples, he will definitely get involved.
But one key to this game is that if the opponent wants to succeed in his conspiracy, he must capture or kill Su Lun.
Otherwise it's all meaningless.
But now Su Lun's strength is not so easy to kill.
He thought about it, dialed Sabina's communication directly, and said: "Help me immediately confirm where 'Elsa Bach' is! At the same time, contact the 'Shadow Lord' and ask about the gold coin How much trouble can he solve. ”
On the other end of the communicator, Sabina heard Su Lun’s arrangement and immediately took action
At the same time, Su Lun was looking for clues.
Caroline also received the news.
When she was on the cruise ship before, she had not guessed the identity of "Mr. Nicholas".
But after returning to Lington, she collected intelligence from all parties, and Caroline roughly guessed something.
Even if he is not the one in the newspaper, he is definitely a strong man who is best not to have any grudges.
So she has been paying attention to the movements of his two disciples recently.
After all, they, Hydra, owed someone a favor on the cruise ship, and they thought that if Nicholas's disciples were in trouble, they would take care of them, so that they could have some friendship in the future.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I woke up today, I heard the news that someone from the "Viper Gang" controlled by the company had kidnapped the young lady named Kama.
This really scared her.
Her intuition immediately told her that there would be a big problem!
As a senior executive of Hydra Company, I know everything when I ask.
She quickly drove to find her employer, Miss Elsa Bach
No. 11 Winery Street in Franklin District, there is an art exhibition going on here.
Caroline hurried over, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw Miss Elsa who was leisurely looking at the art exhibition.
The Bach family behind this eldest lady is a marriage ally of the Andres family, the big financier behind the "Hydra Trading Group".
Caroline had met Elsa several times because of her business dealings with the Bach clan.
The bodyguard passed the message, and she had the opportunity to get close to the young lady.
Looking at Caroline with an anxious face, Elsa did not recognize her and asked arrogantly: "Hydra people? What are you doing here?"
Although Caroline has a high status in the Linton gang, in the eyes of these high-ranking noble ladies, she is just a tool to help the family handle matters.
Caroline had no time to be polite and went straight to the point, "Miss Elsa, did you send someone to kidnap Miss Kama before? Where is she now?"
At the first moment, she wanted to confirm whether the person was still alive.
As long as people are alive, there is room for redemption.
Hearing that the person directly revealed the fact that she had arranged the kidnapping, Elsa had a hint of displeasure in her eyes.
When will my subordinates be able to question the upper-class nobles?
Besides, kidnapping is inherently disgraceful. Can you admit it?
She did not hide her dissatisfaction at all and responded coldly: "I don't know what you are talking about."
""
Caroline's eyes twitched when she heard this.
If she hadn't just reported the situation here to the boss, the people above would have asked her to try her best to solve this problem. 1 She really didn’t want to get involved. Let this Miss Elsa pay for her arrogance herself!
But even though she was very unhappy, Caroline had to continue speaking, but she was more tactful: "Miss, you may be in trouble. There is a big shot behind Miss Kama of the Boyle family. And that I also helped the congressman a lot before, so we have some friendship. If you know where he is, can you let me handle it?"
Elsa's expression changed slightly when she heard that the "Senior Councilor" was mentioned.
She thought for a moment, and although she did not answer, she refused to deny it and said, "What trouble will it cause? The Boyle family is just a down-and-out little noble."
Caroline knew that "Nicholas" definitely didn't want her to talk about his existence everywhere, but she had to speak at this time and said: "Kama has a very powerful teacher, who may be a top professional."
Elsa thought she was some great noble, but when she heard it, she thought, this is it?
"Teacher?"
She said with a tone full of contempt: "Haha, what about the top professionals? This is the imperial capital of Linton, not a country territory where just anyone can run wild!"
There are many top professionals, even the chief guard of her Bach family is a seventh-level professional.
So what?
The most important thing in Lingdun is power and status, not a reckless man with no background. Except for the royal family and a few high councilors, there is no one that the Bach family must bow their heads to.
Looking at what Caroline wanted to explain, Elsa said again: "Why, you don't think anyone dares to do harm to a high-ranking noble in Linton, do you?"
Caroline felt anxious for a while, and it was obvious that the young lady had not yet realized the seriousness of the matter.
Others may really not dare to be reckless in Linton. But for someone who can confront 200,000 pirates and is so murderous, do you think he dares to do so?
She said anxiously: "Miss Elsa, it's not that simple! I can't explain it now. I asked when I came just now, and all the people involved in the kidnapping have been killed. And, if that's true, Sir, you may also have been plotted against. The person around you who instigated your kidnapping may have a problem."
As soon as she finished speaking, Caroline knew that there was no point in explaining this. She quickly asked: "Where is Miss Kama?"
Elsa frowned when she heard this preaching tone, obviously displeased.
Even if it is wrong, do you have a say?
Elsa didn't like this way of communicating through charades, so she asked expressionlessly: "Who is that person you are talking about?"
Although Caroline knew she shouldn't say anything, she could only tell her her guess, "Maybe it's the "Grimm of Death" in the newspaper. ”
After hearing this, Elsa realized that the situation was slightly bad. She said to herself in words that she could only hear clearly: "No wonder that bitch's puppetry is so good, she turned out to be that person's disciple."
But even if she knew that Kama had a teacher, she didn't think that the so-called "God of Death" could cause trouble in Lingdun.
Caroline asked again: "Is Miss Kama still safe now?"
Hearing this, Elsa did not respond, only glanced disdainfully.
Seeing this expression, Caroline's face instantly turned pale and she thought: It's over!
She knows very well,
If the meat ticket is not dead, you can still use favors and mud;
Once the meat ticket is dead, this matter will never stop!
Caroline's face was full of gloom, but now that the matter was over, she could only say: "Miss Elsa, please go back to the house immediately and don't go out. When the matter is resolved, someone will notify you. ”
She calculated the time. It only took a few minutes for Chapman to be killed over there. It should be time to evacuate now.
"Is this necessary?"
Elsa frowned.
Even now, she still doesn't think it's a big deal.
But thinking about the recent assassinations, she also felt that her life was important and there was no need to gamble with some low-level people.
She reluctantly said: "Okay."
As he said that, he called the bodyguards around him to leave.
Caroline just breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that at least she had saved the young lady.
But at this moment, something strange happened suddenly.
The void in the exhibition hall flashed, and a man in a trench coat appeared out of thin air, staring at a crow on his shoulder.
Caroline's face changed suddenly when she saw the person.
The scene you least expected to see happened!
She just wanted to stop him, but before she could speak, she watched the man disappear out of thin air, and he had already appeared next to Elsa.
The visitor is none other than Su Lun!
Su Lun didn't give the bodyguards around him a chance to react. He grabbed Elsa's neck and lifted her up in the air like lightning, and asked in a deep voice: "Where is Kama?"
Elsa has been a beautiful girl since she was a child. When did she get pinched by the neck?
Although she had an instinctive fear of being pinched by someone, at this moment, there was an inexplicable anger in her heart. She suppressed the fear and shouted: "Despicable low-class people, how dare you attack A top noble! Do you know this is a capital crime?!"
Su Lun's eyes were full of indifference. After listening to this woman's words, the black crow on his shoulder screamed.
You are still so arrogant when someone is choking you. Does this woman have no brains?
Apparently not entirely.
Knowing that she cannot escape, her identity is the only bargaining chip she can use to survive.
And Su Lun also noticed something strange. This woman's emotions seemed to be affected by some mysterious force.
Precisely because he knew that this woman was most likely being plotted against, Su Lun did not kill her immediately.
He just wants to know the whereabouts of Kama as soon as possible and rescue people.
Hearing this murderous question, before Elsa could answer, Caroline, who was not far away, secretly thought something was wrong, and anxiously interrupted: "No!"
She spoke very quickly: "I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding. Can you please give me some face and put down Miss Elsa first. We can talk about anything."
She didn't know that if people were still alive, things could still be discussed.
But now, everyone is gone, so we can only find excuses to save Miss Elsa first.
""
Hearing this, Su Lun tilted his head and his eyes suddenly froze.
He didn't expect that the woman he had met once on the cruise ship was also here.
For the matter on the cruise ship, Hydra Company also sent a large-denomination check, which was considered a bit of friendship.
But just because she is here, the problem is huge!
The moment he saw this woman, Su Lun keenly caught the panic in her eyes.
Caroline recognized herself here, which meant that she probably knew the ins and outs of the kidnapping case.
But if there is nothing wrong with her, there is no need to panic.
As long as you tell him where Kama is as soon as possible, the crisis will be alleviated in an instant.
Not only did she not, but she suppressed the panic and wanted to let him go first?
If it can still be said to be nervous, then Elsa's panic when she was questioned just now can basically confirm a fact.
That's it
They couldn't give Su Lun the answer he wanted!
Thinking of this, Su Lun suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart, "Your Excellency, whose face is worth my disciple's life?"
In an instant, murderous intent surged out of his eyes, and the fingers that were holding Elsa's neck were embedded in the soft flesh of her neck.
A Royal Academy is known as the second-level academy of puppet genius. Elsa's combat power is comparable to that of third- and fourth-level professionals. She has no power to fight back in Su Lun's hands, like a helpless little mother. Being screwed like a chicken.
Although he guessed something, Su Lun still didn't want to do it. He asked for the last time: "Tell me where he is within five breaths!"
Caroline on the side looked anxious, but there was nothing she could do.
The sudden murderous intent on the man in front of her came like a mountain, making her, a fourth-level professional, afraid to even think about saving people.
While she was anxious, she was also shocked: How strong is this guy?
Elsa naturally couldn't answer.
Seeing that the person in front of her really dared to kill her, deep fear appeared in her eyes.
She wanted to call for help, but the desperate suffocation made her fall into endless fear.
As time passed by, her face turned red due to lack of oxygen, and she was about to die on the spot.
Su Lun had no intention of stopping at all.
This woman is the mastermind of the kidnapping, no matter her identity or background. If something happens to Kama, Su Lun, as a teacher, will definitely seek an explanation from his disciples!
Seeing that this noble lady was about to die on the spot.
But at this moment, something strange happened!
When Su Lun was in his fourth breath, he noticed something unusual and pinched it vigorously without hesitation. A "click" sound was heard throughout the exhibition hall.
Caroline was so disheartened that her face turned pale.
But after listening carefully, she realized that it was not the sound of bone cracking.
And when I looked at it again, Miss Elsa, whose neck had been strangled, actually exploded into a piece of splintered sawdust!
Caroline obviously knew what this meant, and was overjoyed: "Master Aubrey finally caught up!"
Suellen broke Elsa's neck, but in an instant, he realized something was wrong.
"Substitute puppet?"
Su Lun's pupils shrank suddenly.
In perception, the touch of Elsa in my hand was completely wrong, and the soul wave also teleported more than ten meters away.
At that moment, someone used an extremely clever puppet secret method to replace the person in his hand!
Su Lun squinted and looked over, just in time to see a white-haired old man appear in the exhibition hall. Next to him stood Elsa, who was bent over and panting.
The visitor is none other than Elsa’s teacher, Aubrey Hernandez, the president of the Luying Puppet Masters Guild!
Aubrey looked at the murderous Su Lun, and even though he was a seventh-level professional, he felt an inexplicable palpitation in his heart.
As a top professional's intuition, the moment he saw the man in the windbreaker in front of him, he judged that this man was very powerful!
Looking at the black crow again, he also vaguely guessed Su Lun's identity.
Although recently many people in Linton have brought black crow pets, and they all imitate the famous "Death Puppet Master".
But low-level professionals can still be said to be imitating, and high-level professionals may not bother to imitate.
Su Lun saw the grand seventh-level professional in front of him, Grand Master Aubrey, the president of the Puppet Union, and he had no intention of retreating.
On the contrary, because this guy saved the person he wanted to kill, the murderous intention in his heart became more and more restless.
Protect the calf regardless of the reason?
You protect me, why don’t I protect you!
Aubrey didn't know why a high-level professional had such murderous intention towards his second-level disciple, but he also guessed what the reason might be, and asked cautiously: "Who are you, and why do you want to attack?" Kill my disciple?"
Su Lun sneered and said: "My disciple Kama Boyle was kidnapped. It was the young lady next to you who did it. Now I just want to get an answer, where is my disciple?"
He also wanted to see how the old man would speak!
Aubrey's face changed slightly when he heard the name "Kama Boyle".
As the president of the Puppet Masters Guild, he instantly thought of the talented puppet girl who had tied for first place in the Puppet Master Competition with his disciple.
So this is her teacher?
In an instant, the old man also understood the reason for the matter.
My disciple does have the arrogant temperament of a noble family. It seems that he kidnapped Miss Kama out of jealousy.
Although Aubrey also thinks this behavior is wrong, now is not the time to talk about it.
No matter what, it was impossible for him to watch his disciples being killed.
Caroline on the side felt reassured as she watched Aubrey arrive.
But at the same time, I also felt a sense of guilt.
This place is not far from the Puppet Masters Guild on Gunpowder Street. When she came here, she thought that a situation might happen that she couldn't handle, so she notified the Alchemy Guild headquarters a few blocks next door.
Now that the seventh-level professionals are here, Miss Elsa is naturally not in danger.
But she was a little worried about the "Mr. Nicholas" in front of her.
After all, Miss Elsa was in the wrong for this kidnapping anyway, and it was reasonable for the other party to come to ask for an explanation.
What's more, "Nicholas" was very helpful on the cruise ship before, so I owe him a favor.
Caroline was in a conflicted mood.
Lu Ying's law serves the nobles. Now that the crime of attacking and killing the nobles has been established, if there is a slight mistake, the life of "Nicholas" will be in danger.
She was afraid that the matter would not end, so she quickly interjected: "I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding"
However, Su Lun ignored this attempt to please the woman on both sides and asked again in front of the old man: "So, where is my disciple now?"
Aubrey had a gloomy look on his face. He really didn't know about this, and he didn't know how to respond.
My disciple is young and energetic, and his impulsiveness is quite reasonable.
No matter how thick-faced he is, he can't turn right from wrong.
But at this moment, Elsa beside her also recovered from the severe suffocation.
After the ecstasy of surviving the disaster, she felt an unprecedented humiliation in her heart, and the evil fire in her heart suddenly rose again.
Now that my teacher has arrived, I no longer have any worries.
She admitted everything arrogantly and arrogantly, with a sickly sarcastic smile on her face: "Humph! How about I have arranged for someone to kidnap her? Not only did I arrange for the kidnapping, but I also had someone kill the bitch. What can you do? Damn untouchable, you still want to kill me?"
Since you are so offended, it is best to kill this enemy on the spot, and there must be no future trouble!
As she said that, she took out a box from the storage ring and deliberately threw it to the ground.
The box crashed to pieces on the ground, and two **** severed hands fell out instantly.
Seeing this scene, Aubrey frowned, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He knew that his disciple had a bit of an aristocratic temperament, but he shouldn't be so reckless.
But it was too late to stop it.
As soon as he said these words, Su Lun across from him looked at the pair of **** severed hands on the ground and immediately determined that they were Karma's hands!
This woman is obviously trying to force herself to do something.
She might as well rely on her teacher to kill herself on the spot!
Haha!
At this point, there is no need for any communication at all.
Su Lun's eyes suddenly froze, he raised his hand and took out the black sickle like a magic trick, and slashed at Elsa in the distance.
With a "clang" sound, the space crack created by the black scythe struck a puppet.
Aubrey tugged at the silk thread with her finger, and looked at her body-protecting puppet with a big **** in it, her eyes full of coldness.
The grand master also had a temper. When someone pointed at his nose and threatened him, and even moved his hands, the old man felt angry for no reason. He suppressed his anger and said: "Your Majesty, you don't think that I can still allow you to kill people now that I'm here, right?"
Su Lun's eyes flashed red. He showed no fear in the face of the pressure of the seventh-level professional. Instead, he overflowed with murderous intent, "You can't protect the person I want to kill!"
Now that things have developed, it is roughly clear what the conspiracy is, but he is not sure who is causing the trouble again.
Whether Elsa dies or not, she will not change the situation.
But if you don’t kill, it will be hard to calm down!
Since there is a conspiracy, let’s just make it bigger and see how many people this conspiracy can bring out!
