"His accent is very special. What is this?" Li Huailin facepalmed. "From where I am, I can hear that you are all speaking very standard Mandarin, okay? Other than this, are there any other characteristics? "
"This …" The undead underling on this side had a headache. He recalled and said, "The other party is slightly shorter than me … He's not fat or thin … He's wearing a linen robe … Other than this, I really can't think of any other characteristics …"
This guy was really not to blame. After all, the other party had deliberately covered his face and was very careful to kill all the underlings he had met. If it weren't for Li Huailin's Undead Resurrection skill, they probably wouldn't have been able to find any clues.
"You damn guy, think about it carefully. What other characteristics do you not have?" Boss Mather saw Li Huailin's expression and knew that Li Huailin was not satisfied with the answer he got. He anxiously shouted at the undead underling.
"Mather." At this moment, Li Huailin directly shouted at Mather.
"Yes, Sir," Mather replied.
"There are others." Li Huailin turned his head and said to some of the bosses behind him, "The current situation is like this. The thing I want has been robbed, and it was robbed in your city. Now, I want this thing back. All of you, go and look for it. I want it found by tonight. If I can't find it, I will pretend that I didn't say anything about protecting you. Not only that, there will be more serious consequences. Think about it yourself."
"This …" Everyone understood what Li Huailin meant. Although it was very unreasonable, there was nothing they could do about it. After all, he was Li Huailin. Not to mention Li Huailin's army, the Warlock Sage-level person beside Li Huailin was enough to give them a hard time. What else could they do now? Hurry up and send someone to look for it.
Fortunately, the underworld had its own way of doing things. They had a lot of underlings, so their eyes and ears were relatively well-informed. Li Huailin had also considered this aspect, which was why he sent this group of people to gather information. Li Huailin didn't care if Cesidus City was destroyed or not. Although the other party had hidden his identity, he was still a foreigner, so he should still have some information.
"Then, Sir, I'll go too …" The only one who did not object to Li Huailin's order was Marther. Yes, this guy blew up Marther's base, so of course Marther wanted to take revenge on him. Even if Li Huailin did not order him to do so, he would still do it. So when he heard Li Huailin's order, Marther, who had already planned to take action, was ready to go.
"Wait." Li Huailin stopped Marther. "I still have something to ask you."
"Please go ahead, Sir." Marther was a little puzzled, but he still nodded.
"What's going on with this researcher called Mithers? What's his identity? Has he been acting strangely lately?" Li Huailin asked.
"Huh?" Marther was slightly stunned. Why did Li Huailin ask about Mithers at this time? Was he suspicious of something? After thinking for a while, Marther replied, "I remember this Mithers joined our society two to three years ago. His usual behavior … is very normal. There's nothing special about him that I can remember. In this aspect, the head of the research department, Bislay, knows better. However, Bislay hasn't been found yet. I think he's already … Your Majesty, you asked about Mithers' situation. Could it be …"
"Why haven't you realized it yet?" Li Huailin held his forehead. "Didn't you hear what this underling said? The mysterious visitor came here to look for Mithers."
"Yes, he's looking for Mithers," the undead underling nodded and said.
"Isn't that strange? If he's looking for the thing I want, he wouldn't be looking for Mithers, right? It's obvious that the brochure you guys printed didn't mention Mithers' name. How did he know about Mithers? "Li Huailin said.
"In other words … this mysterious person might have found out that the person who invented this weapon was Mises, or … he already knew Mises in private?" Marther immediately understood what was going on.
"Quick, go and find out what's going on," Li Huailin said immediately. Li Huailin said immediately. He knew that Mather probably didn't know much about Mises, but the others in the group should know a little.
"Okay, okay." Marther nodded immediately.
After Li Huailin gave the order, the entire Cesodas City started to mobilize. This was originally a city controlled by a society. Now that all the societies were on the move, of course, the efficiency was very high. Li Huailin only waited for a while before he received news.
Soon, a big boss brought a civilian to Li Huailin. Li Huailin looked at the civilian. The civilian was a very ordinary middle-aged man. The big boss next to him immediately introduced, "Sir, this is the owner of Capuzi Hotel. He said he saw this mysterious person before."
"Yes, yes …" Although the hotel owner didn't know who Li Huailin was, since his big boss called him Sir, he must be a high-ranking official. He immediately replied, "A few days ago, this person came to stay at my hotel. Because his whole body was wrapped, I paid some attention to him. I've been staying in my hotel for three to four days, and I don't feel like he's left the room … but …"
"Huh?"
"He kept asking me to leave the food at the door, but one time, I was curious and realized that he wasn't in the room …" the hotel owner said.
"That means he didn't go out through the front door, right?" Li Huailin said. "He's gone now?"
"Yes … Yes, I took a look just now, and he's not in the room anymore. I don't know when he left, but he still left the food for lunch, so … he might have left at noon," the hotel owner said.
"Is there anything left in the room?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes, that's strange. He didn't bring any luggage, so he could leave anytime if he wanted to … but he's already paid for half a month's worth of travel …" the hotel owner said.
"Hmm …" Li Huailin nodded. He guessed that the other party wouldn't be able to find any useful information with his cautious attitude. "Did anyone come to the hotel to look for this guy?"
"Look for this guy?" The hotel owner thought for a while. "No, I'm sure no one did."
Li Huailin didn't have much hope. Even if the mysterious visitor knew Mithers, he wouldn't have met him in the hotel. It didn't match the person's cautious attitude.
Li Huailin waved his hand and dismissed the hotel owner. He waited for a while, and soon, more news came.
"Sir, someone saw the mysterious visitor leave Cesocidas from the west gate," a club leader reported.
"He left the city?" Li Huailin was surprised. "What kind of transportation did he use?"
"Sir, he didn't use any transportation. He left on foot. And he wasn't alone when he left, "the club leader said.
"Not alone? Who was the other person? Was it Mithers? "Li Huailin asked.
"Your Majesty, we don't know Mithers, but he hid his face and wore a big cloak like this guy," the club leader reported.
"He left on foot … Is there anything on the west side of the city?" Li Huailin asked.
"The west side of the city … is a mountainous area. There's nothing there," the club leader said after some thought.
"Sir, I've asked." As he spoke, Marther ran over from the side. "Sir, according to the reports from our men, Misters seems to be behaving strangely recently. According to them, Mithers is a research maniac. He doesn't usually go out. He's focused on his research in the lab, but recently, he seems to be going out a lot. However, no one knows exactly where he went, but one of them said that he saw Mithers go out of the west gate … "
"There's really nothing on the west side of the city?" Li Huailin asked again.
"This …" Everyone looked around. They were all locals, so they didn't know what was so special about the mountainous area on the west side of the city.
"Regardless, he left on foot. I don't think he's very fast. We should be able to catch up," Li Huailin said after some thought. "Everyone, go out of the city and search. We must find them."
"Yes, sir." It was already late at night. Who would want to go out and look for someone in the dark at this time? But there was no other way. After all, it was Li Huailin's order, so no one dared to disobey. After all, if they couldn't find the person, they would really be in trouble.
Li Huailin had no choice. He really had something to do tomorrow, so he had to complete the mission today. So, with a wave of his hand, the huge search team left the west side and began to search separately. Of course, Li Huailin also rode Millet and searched in the air. For the sake of convenience, Li Huailin directly used Kuroma's ultrasonic positioning skill. This way, he could scan the ground even in this dark environment.
The west side of the city was really just a mountainous area. No one would be here at this time. As long as Li Huailin scanned the area, he would be able to find them.
In fact, although this kind of carpet search method was very stupid, it was indeed effective. Soon, new news came. The search team was attacked, and they were injured by magic.
"It's them," the person who was attacked said.
