The electric tricycle stopped in an inconspicuous corner, and Curly Hair gestured for Zhao Yu to get off with his pistol.
As there were fish tanks everywhere, the place was filled with a humid and salty smell. Zhao Yu had never kept fish, but he could tell that the fish in the tanks were all marine fishes.
He even saw seahorses and jellyfish in one of the tanks …
Zhao Yu followed Curly Hair and the others into the depths of the hall filled with fish tanks.
The place was like a maze. From Zhao Yu's point of view, the fish tanks were mostly similar. After a few turns, they arrived in front of another metal door.
Ding …
Curly Hair pressed the doorbell and waved at the camera above the door. The metal door opened with a click.
In the end, as soon as the door opened, a person quickly walked out to welcome them.
"Ha ha ha … Great detective Zhao Yu, we finally meet …" As he spoke, he was already in front of Zhao Yu and enthusiastically extended his right hand.
Zhao Yu saw that this person was slightly taller than him. His sideburns were white, and his skin was loose. He was obviously not young.
The most eye-catching thing was the obvious knife scar on the right side of his face. As the knife scar was near the corner of his eye, his right eye was slightly deformed and looked a little scary.
Oh …
Zhao Yu glanced at his left hand and saw that his left hand was indeed missing a middle finger.
It seemed that this person was the one that Miao Kun had mentioned to him before.
He was the mysterious enemy that Zhao Yu had been looking for! He was the one that had kidnapped Miao Kun, Xi Mengna, Yusuf, and the others …
"Ha ha ha …" Seeing that Zhao Yu was hesitant to shake his hand, Scarface still raised his hand and laughed. "I know detective Zhao knows many languages, including English. So, let's talk in English! It's too awkward to use this thing! "
As he spoke, he took out a black electronic device with a loudspeaker and spoke into it in English.
The device quickly translated it into Mandarin and said in a cold, mechanical, and lifeless voice, "Great detective Zhao, I'm your admirer. I've studied all the cases that you've solved … Ha ha ha …"
As expected!
Hearing this familiar tone, Zhao Yu determined that the mysterious enemy that he had been talking to on the phone before was him! Ding Lan was in his hands!
However, even though they were enemies, Zhao Yu didn't use force since the other party was polite. Instead, he politely shook hands with the other party.
"Hahaha … I've heard a lot about you …" Scar Face shook Zhao Yu's hand enthusiastically and said, "Crazy Detective, you really live up to your name. You actually dared to come to the meeting alone. This courage is really admirable!
"I thought that we would never meet again! Hehehe … "
This person's laughter was sometimes high and sometimes low, and the tone of his voice also fluctuated up and down. It was indeed a little eccentric, making people feel very uncomfortable.
"Come come come, this way please …"
As he spoke, Scarface gestured for Zhao Yu to follow him inside.
"You're a Sherlock Holmes," Scarface said as he walked. "You should have guessed that everything here is a remnant of the war, right?
"This place is located by the sea, a strategic location. Therefore, the local people built this rather large underground fortification according to the structure of the mountain.
"But this is an era of peace." Scarface smiled. "This place has been forgotten by the people!"
At this point, everyone had already walked into another spacious hall. This hall wasn't as big as the previous one, but it was taller. From the ground to the ceiling, it was about six to seven meters high.
The furnishings in the hall were much more luxurious than before. There were sofas, recliners, coffee tables, and some places were even covered with carpets.
Around the hall, there were many electronic devices and instruments. Not only were there computers, but there were also many things that Zhao Yu had never seen before.
However, the most eye-catching thing in the hall wasn't the items, but the people. As soon as Zhao Yu entered, he saw more than twenty armed men in camouflage uniforms.
These people were scattered in every corner of the hall. Some were on guard duty, some were operating electronic devices, and some were even feeding the fish.
Zhao Yu found that the camouflage uniforms, as well as the weapons and equipment they had, were exactly the same as the Korean military and police.
Although most of these people were Caucasians, if they wore helmets and blended into the army, it would be impossible to tell them apart.
Oh …
Zhao Yu had a bad feeling. Even if the Korean people could determine his location and rush in, they would be at a great disadvantage against these people who were dressed the same as him!
"Oh right," Scarface said as he led Zhao Yu to the sofa in the middle of the hall. He looked slightly ashamed as he said to Zhao Yu, "I'm sorry. I was too focused on greeting Detective Zhao, but I forgot to introduce myself. That's really rude of me."
"Because I've always wanted world peace since I was young, I gave myself a name, Manhattan!"
"…"
Zhao Yu had never interacted with foreigners before, so he didn't understand what he was trying to say. He immediately showed an indifferent expression.
"Hahaha, because the United Nations building is in Manhattan, I can't …" Scarface said seriously, "call it the United Nations building, right?"
As soon as he said this, the hall fell silent. Two seconds later, everyone burst into laughter. Scarface was laughing so hard that he was rocking back and forth.
"Hahaha … Hahaha … I thought that as long as I could enter the United Nations building, I could maintain world peace! Hahaha … "
Seeing this strange scene, Zhao Yu was even more embarrassed. He had no choice but to sit down on the sofa.
Seeing that there was fruit in front of the sofa, he picked up an apple and started munching on it.
"Mm … Okay …" After Manhattan finished laughing, he sat next to Zhao Yu and said, "Anyway, you can just call me Manhattan!
"Let me tell you, I'm really a big fan of yours," Manhattan said enthusiastically. "You should be able to tell. Otherwise, I wouldn't have imitated the cases you solved!"
Oh?
Hearing this, Zhao Yu finally heard the main point and immediately stopped chewing.
"But to be honest," Manhattan was like an excited child, "I was too naive! Take chopping a hand for example. It's not as simple as picking up an axe and chopping off the hand!
You have to understand the target's whereabouts and habits. You also have to find a way to copy her car key so that you can easily open her car door. Then, you have to find a place to do it. You have to prepare anesthetics, tools to chop off the hand, and bandage the wound.
"I only did it once, but I already felt very annoyed! At first, I wanted to chop a few more hands … "
He then pointed to an Asian man standing behind the sofa and said, "He made all the preparations for the Devil Case. The atmosphere he created was even more realistic than the real Devil Case!
But in the end? I had to push the woman down with my own hands … Ha ha ha … "Manhattan laughed strangely." Killing people is really not fun at all! "
"Well, that's because …" Zhao Yu adjusted the simultaneous translation device and said in English, "You didn't choose a good day. When there were stars and the moon in the sky, the victim would have been able to see the surroundings clearly!
Since she would definitely die if she jumped down, it would be better to be scared to death by the ghost, right? "
"Oh … Oh …" Manhattan nodded. "It seems that the murderous demon Han Kuan is really good. He thought of all the details!
But, it seems that you are still better than him. You were able to catch such a cautious criminal, which shows that you are the best!
Ha ha ha … You are indeed my idol … Ha ha ha … "
As he spoke, Manhattan picked up an apple and took a bite …
"Interesting …" Zhao Yu stared at Manhattan, who was chewing the apple, then grinned and said, "Why do I feel like our roles have been reversed?"
"What?" Manhattan asked with a smile. "What's the reverse?"
"I thought …" Zhao Yu narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "I was the one who wanted to buy time! But now, it looks like I was wrong! "
As soon as he said this, the hall fell into a dead silence.
