After venting her anger, Cat Eyes returned to silence. She seemed to be at a loss as to which side she should stand on. Luckily, Zhang Yingying stole the show once again at this time. She laughed and rubbed Luo Nan's back to soothe him. She even used her height advantage to pat his head and give him a good compliment. Luo Nan slapped her away in a bad mood.
Zhang Yingying was not angry. On the contrary, she was very excited. She was the one who recommended Luo Nan into the Society. Any of Luo Nan's achievements added luster to her face … … At least she believed so.
She didn't doubt the correctness of Luo Nan's answer. It had nothing to do with his ability. It just stemmed from her trust in this young and inexperienced high school student's personality.
"Hey, let's get to the bottom of this. Tell me, why didn't Kitten see it, but you did?"
Luo Nan thought for a bit and finally spoke: "There's a corpse over there."
"Hmm?" Zhang Yingying was a little stunned. She wasn't the only one. There were very few people around who understood what was going on.
Zhang Yingying tried her best to understand and tried to answer, "You are saying that the Oblatum Knight over there disguised himself as a corpse, so Bamboo Pole and Kitten escaped?"
Luo Nan nodded.
"This is too …"
Zhang Yingying was simply speechless. Though Luo Nan was able to see a corpse fifty meters away in such a complicated environment was already quite amazing, what kind of lousy reason was this!? Could this be the legendary "Thousand Gold Formula of the Jianghu"?
She had no intention of refuting Luo Nan, but she could not help but seek confirmation from Cat Eyes. "Is this the case? Hello, Kitty? "
Cat Eyes only reacted when she heard the second voice. She forced herself to reply, "There is indeed a corpse there."
She was in low spirits and no longer doubted him.
Through the encrypted channel, Bamboo Pole sent over a video feed of the surveillance system. Indeed, there was a corpse there. It was quite fat, and it was a common overweight person in the city. It looked like it had been hit by a bullet. It was lying on the ground, motionless, and there was a large pool of blood under its body. Judging from the amount of blood loss, the chances of survival were slim.
Anyone who saw the video couldn't help but be speechless. No matter how he looked at it, it was still a corpse. There were no signs that it was an Oblatum Knight in disguise.
"Heh …"
(If this chapter is not finished, please turn the page.)
In the encrypted channel, the Red Fox's hoarse and trembling laughter rang out. "You say that this fatty is an Oblatum Knight? Excellent! Those who have seen the information on the Order of Justice, raise your hands. Which of the nine Oblatum Knights of Xia City has such an appearance? "
For a moment, no one responded.
The Red Fox's voice suddenly became louder. "Or does Boss Luo believe that we should never let our guard down against any humanoid object? Then according to your logic, all the corpses in Frost River Reality have the possibility of being Oblatum Knights... Who will verify this? Just based on those spots of light? What a joke! "
Towards the end, the Red Fox's throat was already torn. He had always believed that his words and actions were not wrong. Now, he was even more certain of this. The reason why Luo Nan encountered such an awkward situation was ultimately due to the Holy Mothers surrounding the immature Luo Nan. There was no objectivity to speak of in their protective attitudes.
More than once, he had the urge to turn around and leave this goddamn operation team so that he wouldn't be labeled as a coward. However, from Hu City to Xia City, he had accumulated many years of viciousness and depression. It was not so easy to vent it. With this anger, even if his head was broken and he bled, he would still argue this matter clearly.
Bamboo Pole looked at Red Fox's expression and felt bad for him. He wanted to mediate the situation, so he reached out a hand and pressed down on Red Fox's shoulder. "Fox, listen to me..."
"Including you!"
Red Fox forcefully pushed Bamboo Pole's hand away. His bloodshot eyes glared fiercely at Bamboo Pole. "Is your brain full of shit? You let a little kid say whatever he wants to say? You don't care about right or wrong at all. You just applaud a post-processing GIF? "
Bamboo Pole sighed again and spread his hands. "Fox, you need to calm down and think..."
"Cold my ass!"
Red Fox gave Bamboo Pole a thumbs up... pointing downwards. Then he took a deep breath and grabbed his lapels with both hands. He shook the red jacket that represented his honor and reputation. He grinned and laughed once more. "How about this. If you guys aren't doing it, then I'll do it. We'll make this bet. We'll bet on the Oblatum Knight!"
Bamboo Pole was startled. He suddenly realized what Red Fox meant. He reached out to grab him, but as a non-combatant, how could he compare to Red Fox, who had the reputation of being the City Hunter? He reached out to grab empty air.
"Stop him," Bamboo Pole called out to Papercut. However, Papercut was also a mentally enhanced person. He wasn't any better than Bamboo Pole.
(This chapter is not finished. Please turn the page.)
Red Fox's figure flashed a few times and he left the shopping center that served as the meeting point. He blended into the bustling street's surging stream of people. By the time Bamboo Pole and Papercut rushed out, their line of sight had already been blurred by the curtain of rain. How could they see Red Fox's shadow?
Didn't you guys say that I only knew how to shoot my mouth off? I'll show you right now!
Red Fox's lips curled into a cold smile. He walked toward the most chaotic area of the city center tonight with large strides.
"Red Fox, don't do meaningless things!"
"You can't be reasonable so you want to throw a tantrum?"
Two messages consecutively appeared in the encrypted channel. The first was He Yueyin's words and the second was naturally Zhang Yingying's.
These two words were spoken at nearly the same time. Immediately, He Yueyin's unprecedentedly stern gaze pierced over. Even with Zhang Yingying's usual lively temperament, she instantly choked.
Just as Zhang Yingying was about to counterattack, Bai Xinyan moved closer to her ear and said, "Hey, you can't force people to extremes!"
Zhang Yingying opened her mouth but no sound came out. She had been reminded by Bai Xinyan. She discovered that Red Fox's state wasn't too normal. It was to the extent that he seemed to be smashing a broken jar.
Was this necessary?
At this moment, Red Fox's hoarse voice entered the encrypted channel. "Then explain it clearly, Miss Secretary. Explain it clearly to me. What is the meaning? What is the meaning of this damned night? "
Red Fox continued to use the low-level error method to communicate. He simply didn't care about the strange gazes cast by the people around him. After he cursed loudly, he laughed at himself in a hoarse voice. "Since there is no meaning, it doesn't matter what I do."
As his voice fell, his footsteps sped up a bit. The support point was actually closer to Frost River Reality than the Yulan Hotel. He secretly exerted strength in his legs. As he spoke, he saw the triangular flying ship surrounded by spotlights and police lights in the distance.
In front of him was a stream of people retreating from Frost River Reality. Their footsteps were either fast or slow. Their expressions alternated between fear, panic, excitement, and curiosity.
Red Fox did not dodge or evade. He charged into the stream of people. His hands were in his pockets. He used the most relaxed method to advance against the flow of people. His arms and shoulders brushed against each other several times but they did not affect him in the slightest.
Uh-huh. It was a very familiar feeling. These ignorant faces were no different from those in Hu City.
