E Block, Fire Stove Alley.
Similar to the other blocks in E Block, the place was filled with complicated, disorderly buildings, and even felt a little suffocating.
Therefore, not many people were willing to come here.
Whether it was the freshmen or the seniors, it was the same.
However, in the eyes of some of the higher-ups in Theorate, this place was different.
Because …
This place was the residence of E Block's principal, Romuse.
The principal, who fought hard to turn the tides during E Block's most dangerous times, didn't live in A Block, which had better conditions.
He lived in E Block!
Moreover, it was in a slightly dilapidated small building.
There weren't any guards or surveillance cameras in the building, but the black figure who approached the building was very careful, as if he was approaching the scariest place in the world.
The black figure had to calculate for every step he took, so from the entrance of the alley to the old building, the distance was less than 300 meters, yet it took him almost an hour.
When he reached the building, he wiped the sweat off his forehead and heaved a breath of relief.
He had passed the most dangerous place.
As for the rest?
It was time to reap his harvest!
Unlike his previous cautiousness, the young man swaggered into the building as if he was the owner of the building. Furthermore, he seemed to be very familiar with the place. After entering the building, he headed straight for the second floor.
Tssk Gak!
The old study room door was pushed open, the black figure walked in and headed straight to the bookshelf, searching for something.
Soon enough, the other party noticed something.
With a surprised look, the black figure placed the item he found into his backpack and prepared to leave.
However, before he left, his eyes unconsciously glanced over the study table.
When he saw the book placed in the middle of the table, his body froze on the spot.
It was a rather old book, the cover a little rotten, but the name of the book was very clear.
Index of Eat!
The three words written with a brush seemed to have endless allure, causing the intruder to hesitate.
The hesitation lasted for almost a minute before the figure finally made up his mind.
He didn't touch the Index of Eat on the desk. Instead, he grabbed his backpack tightly and left the building. Then, just like before, he carefully left Fire Stove Alley.
Hu!
After truly leaving Fire Stove Alley, the man heaved a long sigh of relief. However, at the next moment, a voice rang out.
"I'm curious, what made you give up on the Index of Eat?"
"Cough, cough cough … why are you here?!"
The sudden voice caused the man's breath to be stuck in his throat. After a few coughs, the man stared at Kieran, who was slowly walking out of the shadows with a doubtful gaze.
"Of course you told me!"
"Professor Derton!"
Kieran said with a smile.
"I told you?"
"What a joke!"
"And Professor Derton is dead!"
The other party bellowed.
"Really?"
"Then do you dare to take off your mask?"
Kieran asked with a smile.
"Knowing too much will kill you!"
The man did not take off his mask, and his voice became gloomy.
"I don't want to know too much, but who told you to keep showing your flaws in front of me?"
Kieran pretended to sigh.
"Flaws?
If it wasn't for you, there wouldn't have been any flaws! "
The man's voice grew colder.
"From the moment I died, everything was perfect. Not only did I clear my name, but I was also able to ambush Professor Tyrese. He would have to stay in the hospital for at least half a year, plus Eiderburgh, who was kidnapped by me, E Block would have fallen into chaos last night, forcing Principal Romuse to step in.
But your appearance messed up my plans, forcing me to make up for it. "
The man couldn't hold back his cold grunt.
"But the more perfect the plan, the more troublesome it is to make up for it.
You must have given your all to kidnap Professor Tyrese last night, didn't you?
So, you couldn't make a move on me, a freshman who exposed the Index of Eat in the dark. All you could do was let others do it. "
Kieran said.
"But their strength raised suspicions in your heart!
Compared to being able to kill me with a single strike and make Eiderburgh lose contact, their strength is too weak.
"Especially under the premise that they failed once or twice. For the third time, when they should have paid more attention, they still sent out underlings who were not good enough."
The man explained as if he was adding on.
"That's one of the points.
What really raised my suspicions was that everything was too coincidental!
The moment Lude escaped, you contacted me, and then you were assassinated. It's too much of a coincidence!
What's so coincidental about it?
You knew Lude knew the secret of the Index of Eat's whereabouts, so after he escaped, of course I had to look for you!
More so, he took my research materials with him! "
"That's right!
"All of this makes perfect sense!"
"Other than the fact that Lude found out about the Index of Eat from you!"
If we use this as a hypothesis, then can I assume that everything was part of your plan? Including Lude's dirty work in the dark! Even the ones who were watching Lude in the dark were your men! "
Both of their questions and answers ended with Derton's silence.
"How did you know Lude knew about the Index of Eat from me?"
"I'm sure when I revealed the news, there was no one else around!
And in his social circle, there was no one like you! "
Derton asked again.
"Then, did you ever think that Lude might have some strength that you didn't expect?"
"According to your plan, you should have waited for some time and waited for a more ripe time before you sent Lude to make his move, right?
Then, there would be no proof. "
Kieran didn't answer, instead, he asked a series of questions.
Then, he changed the topic.
"But Lude's sudden escape messed up your initial plan, forcing you to take the risk out of desperation."
"The so-called perfect plan that you mentioned was just something you came up with on the spur of the moment.
Just like when you saw me, you decided to use me as a scapegoat. "
Kieran took a step back after he said that.
Tsss!
The moment Kieran took a step back, the ground melted and a heavy greasy smell came from the spot. A 5-meter tall humanoid made of half-solidified greasy crawled out from the melted ground and roared at Kieran.
"Of course, who else is more suitable than you, an unusual freshman?"
"None!
"You are the most suitable!"
Otherwise, why would I be here talking nonsense with you?
Do you think I'll show off like you? "
Derton laughed coldly.
"Show off?
I don't need that kind of thing!
What I need is … a scapegoat! "
Kieran shook his head and looked at the little building in Fire Stove Alley.
Derton seemed to have thought of something, but before he could figure out what it was …
KABOOM!
After the explosion, the little building in Fire Stove Alley was engulfed in flames.
