The red moon returns

Chapter 216 Trap
The light dissipated and calm returned to the night sky.

The beach is radiating steaming heat, and the fine sand has turned into a piece of glass with a diameter of 100 meters. The mirror reflects the silvery white and crimson in the night sky, making the beach extraordinarily bright.

There was nothing in the center of the mirror. The powerful deep diver who resisted level 6 abilities was completely turned into ashes and dissipated in the sea breeze without even being able to utter a exclamation under the illumination of the crimson light.

Only Miss Valente was left on the shore, her mouth slightly open, staring blankly at Lynch's back.

In Zul'Glasar, this man forcibly drove Mordiggian, who was occupying his body, back to the dreamland. Miss Valente already understood that Lynch had a powerful trump card, but she had lost consciousness at the time and could not see it with her own eyes. arrive.

But seeing it today, and seeing it directly at close range, made Miss Valente feel her blood boiling, her consciousness a little numb, and there was only one thought in her mind.

So strong, he is like a god of war walking in the mortal world.

"No, it's Crimson Moon."

Detective Lynch Levy retracted his fist, turned around in the sea breeze, smiled, raised his hat, and bowed slightly to Miss Valente.

"Fight for you, my lady."

"When?"

Lynch was stunned and immediately understood. He held her hand and helped her sit down by the rock like a gentleman from Rand. Then he turned around to check the situation of the four reporters, leaving Miss Valente to herself. Check the injured shoulder.

"It should be after I saw the four of them and before they went crazy. I suspect it started when those deep divers came out of the water. At that time, I heard them reciting prayers and came out, and I was still wondering, why You have to recite prayers even when you get to the shore."

"Do you have any idea what happened?"

"Huh?" Lin Qi was stunned, "Can it be transmitted that far?"

"It came from the concentric conch. Have you forgotten? We were corresponding at the time, talking about the Dockers' Association."

There were no stab wounds or bruises in the memory. The four people were just unconscious. It was not known whether they were unconscious or asleep. However, their breathing was very steady, so there should be no big problem.

"Ah, yes, I heard it too."

Miss Valente held her hands in her hair, smiled brightly, and stretched out her hand to Lynch.

"Glory to you, my hero."

Miss Valente stroked her shoulder for a while, and under the influence of her rapid healing ability, the slight skin injury quickly recovered as before. After calming down from the excitement of witnessing Lynch's strength just now, doubts once again occupied her consciousness. Miss Valente frowned and thought:
"What just happened was so weird."

"I'm not sure, but I have a guess." Lynch did not try to wake up the four young people, but just sat down beside them and said thoughtfully, "One of the powers stolen by the Lord of R'lyeh is Xiang is a dream, and I suspect that we were just pulled into a dream by the deep diver leader."

Hiss, that’s it.

Lynch immediately realized that the fishmen's dream ability was probably activated through their chanting. They knew in advance that someone was ambushing the shore through some unknown method, so they began to use their abilities as soon as they landed on the shore, killing everyone on the shore. Pulled into a dream. Miss Valente was also drawn in because she heard the sound in the conch.

"It is indeed possible." Miss Valente said thoughtfully, "So...everything I saw and heard after that was just a dream?" "It should be, by the way, what did you see? Weren't you always in the carriage? Did you respond? Why did you follow me?"

"Didn't you suddenly ask for help in the conch and call me over urgently? Oh, by the way, those were all dreams, but the consciousness was dreaming, and the body acted accordingly, a bit like sleepwalking. I thought you encountered something Feeling danger, I rushed over as fast as I could, but I only saw the deep divers. The leader among them said that you had something to tell them and asked them to convey it to me. I was about to listen carefully when I realized from its reaction that there was someone behind me, so I turned around and turned around. It was just one shot, but then I realized it was you, so I changed the target to the Deep Diver."

Then everything is correct. It seems that everyone who is pulled into the dream, what they see and hear, will be affected by the person who releases the ability. That's why I saw a copy of Miss Valente. I'm afraid The other party's purpose was to kill her with his own hands.

Lin Qi breathed a sigh of relief and smiled softly: "But you really dare to turn around, aren't you afraid that my sword will really stab you?"

"It turns out that you didn't." Miss Valente wrinkled her nose and smiled proudly, "So what about you, what did you see?"

Lynch briefly explained what he saw, and the smile on Miss Valente's face gradually disappeared: "These deep divers not only want to label the family as colluding with pirates, but also incite us to attack each other. It's really too much." That’s vicious. I suspect that today’s incident itself is a conspiracy against you and me.”

"Probably not." Lynch shook his head and said, "Our coming here is very accidental. Let alone these fish-headed people, even West from the Black Cat Theater is not sure that we will come today. They are unlikely. This performance is just for us."

"So... excluding us, then they are actually after these four reporters?"

"I'm afraid this is the only possibility." Lynch sighed, "I don't know what the four of them saw, but in my opinion it was your image, and it was the image at yesterday's cocktail party rather than today's dress. That's why I mistakenly thought you were copied. Since it's not a copy but a dream, it means they had a premeditated plan to use your image, at least it was decided yesterday."

Miss Valente pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly in approval of Lynch's analysis.

"In other words, they intended to let these four idiots see you colluding with the deep divers from the beginning. But later they found out that you were also listening, so they simply lured you over and tried to provoke us. Conflict." Lynch punched his fist in the palm of his hand and said in a deep voice, "So on the surface it seems to be aimed at these four, but in fact it is still aimed at us, preparing to throw dirty water on the Valente family, but we are lucky, it just happened Broke their conspiracy."

"The family's business rarely involves ocean trade, and has nothing to do with deep divers or pirates." Miss Valente bit her lip and thought, "They can't come to our family for no reason. These people use my image from yesterday. , it should be that they sneaked into the cocktail party yesterday, or someone who attended the cocktail party showed my image to them. Huh, it may have something to do with yesterday's cocktail party, it couldn't be that the exotic princess came to seek revenge on me. "

"Huh? Just for this little thing? And if you want revenge, you should come to me. Why should you come to your Valente family?"

"No, we don't rule out that they will think that after the Valente family has no time to take care of you, you will not be able to find the gem. But we don't need to guess. Just ask them. They will definitely know who did it. of."

"That's right, the person who gave them the tip must have something to do with this trap." Lynch raised his cane and poked Maya's belly, "Stop pretending, you have been eavesdropping for so long, get up and work. First, tell me clearly what you just saw."

Teng, Maya sat up straight, smiled awkwardly at Lynch, moved to the side, a little further away from Miss Valente: "A group of monsters were shouting and jumping there, and she came later, and Those monsters were talking and laughing, and then we passed out. It looked so real, was it really just a dream?"

It seems to be similar to what I saw, only slightly different. Lynch nodded and asked: "You have also seen that these are not ordinary pirates at all. Your source of information obviously wants to trap you together. There is no need for you to hide it for them. Tell me, where did the information come from? He can’t really come from Lord Lorende’s mansion.”

Several reporters looked at each other tremblingly, and finally Maya answered: "No, it's from the city hall, one of the mayor's staff. He introduced us to a senior executive of the Dockers Association, who revealed to our."

He's actually the mayor's man? And there was a tip from a mole in the Dockers Association. Is it really related to railway engineering?

Lynch and Miss Valente looked at each other and pulled Maya up.

"Come on, let's leave before the police come here, otherwise you will probably be interrogated for a long time. Take us to the dock worker's informant immediately. I suspect he knows something."
