The red moon returns

Chapter 224 Avengers

It didn't matter whether what the deep divers said was true or false, but their words made Lynch realize that his previous judgment was actually flawed, but he and Miss Valente had never noticed it. Some very natural judgments now seem to have other possibilities.

Holding the little deep diver hostage, Lin Qi quickly ran through the events of the past few days in his mind, and finally confirmed that there were logical loopholes in three key issues.

First of all, even if Princess Chloe really directed and acted in the incident of stealing the gems, even if she really handed the gems to the deep divers, this does not mean that she must want to find the door between illusion and reality. , she can have another purpose, even a very reasonable purpose.

It's just that she was quite hostile to Lynch from the beginning, and her methods were merciless. Therefore, Lynch and Miss Valente, who were targeted for no reason, were instinctively hostile, and they did not hesitate to evaluate her thoughts with the greatest malice. , acquiescing that her behavior was malicious, so he didn't trust her to hold the gem, but planned to keep it in his own hands. As for why she had strange hostility, the two did not delve into it.

Secondly, even if the one who set up a trap for us on the beach is a deep diver, even if the one who takes away the ruby ​​​​flaming red lips is also a deep diver, it does not mean that the two waves of deep divers are a group. They can be two independent people. It is not that there are no other deep divers around Rhine City. Davis, the wanted criminal who previously bombed the ship to rob the Red Moon Memories, is one of them.

Third, when reading Mark's dying resonance, even if Princess Chloe gave him the Flaming Red Lips and asked him to pass it on to the deep divers, even if someone asked him to reveal the information to reporters to frame him, it would not explain the two Princess Chloe did everything, and the latter could be a conspiracy.

Just because they were already hostile to Princess Chloe, and the image of Miss Valente in the dream was the one she wore at the reception last night, this just formed a psychological suggestion, allowing Lynch and Miss Valente to naturally set up a trap. The framed person and Princess Chloe, who had been hostile before, became one. Moreover, the anger generated by being continuously targeted for no reason went away from his sanity, and he directly invited the apostle in yellow who had also been troubled by the deep divers in the past few days. The two parties worked together to find the deep divers living in the sunken ship.

I didn't realize it when it happened, but the more I think about it now, the more I feel that someone is using my hostility towards Princess Chloe to lead me into a head-on conflict with these deep divers. There is no need to even use lies, everything is true. occurring.

'Is this what you just said, that truth is sometimes the most dangerous lie? '

The little deep diver girl in her arms could no longer see her crazy look just now, but she still said bitterly: "Why, why, that was our treasure, you vicious robbers."

【Ah……】

"I'm asking you...wait, is that yours?"

【Um. 】

"Well, you can also just stand and talk."

Dozens of fish faces stared at Lynch with strange eyes, especially at Lynch's arm holding the little girl and the revolver in his hand. Finally, the leader of the old deep divers asked in an old voice: "You Dare you sit down and talk?"

Lynch suddenly realized that West's information said that the Flaming Red Lips were snatched from a tribe in the New World, but he did not say that it was a human tribe:

The gentle laughter gradually dissipated in his mind. Lynch calmed down and opened the concentric conch so that Miss Valente, who was preparing to respond at the beach, could hear it. Then he coughed dryly and said, "Let me make it clear first, I am only Rhine." I'm a detective in the city, and I'm not on the same side as anyone, let alone a robber. I think there are some misunderstandings between us. Why don't we sit down and have a serious talk before there are irreversible consequences? "

[Do you need me to tell you in the future? 】

'You've seen it a long time ago, why didn't you tell me? '

I dare you to rip me alive if I dare to let go. Lin Qi curled his lips and asked:
"Who are you, and why do you say the gem is yours?"

Lynch hesitated for a moment: 'No, this is my journey and I don't like spoilers ahead of time. '

"Are you the tribe that was robbed of gems? Are you here just to take the gems back?"

"Otherwise? Are you really going to travel with your parents?"

Lynch curled his lips and pretended not to hear the ridicule in his words: "So you got the gem from Princess Chloe, but I don't understand why she gave it back to you after she took it away?" "Who said it was Chloe who snatched the gem? How could she snatch it? She is...well."

Hiss, the information only said that it had been in the hands of Princess Chloe for two years, but it never said that she took it away. It seems that I made the preconception again.

"So, she helped you retrieve the gems and then handed them back to you? Then you could just take the gems and leave. Why did you destroy the merchant ship and massacre the sailors? The innocent sailors didn't provoke you."

"Merchant ship? Sailor? Innocent?" Lin Qi could feel that the little girl was trembling all over, and her voice was getting higher and higher. "Who do you think robbed our property and massacred the young and old of our tribe? This ship was among the murderers. Ship. We have been chasing the murderer for two years, and we finally lured out the last group of robbers and killed them. Are you saying that we are innocent? "

Lin Qi opened his mouth, but found that he had nothing to say. If what the other party said was true, then in their eyes, it would be another story.

Their home was destroyed, their treasures were robbed, and the whole family, young and old, chased the murderer for thousands of miles. Finally, with the help of a foreign princess, they finally managed to lure the murderer out and kill him. However, an old enemy came to cause trouble outside. When the whole family was fighting, the family was destroyed again. He stole it and almost killed the young child who was left behind.

"It seems quite innocent, but I am also innocent. I was targeted by Princess Chloe for no reason, and was induced to come to you in the middle of the night by someone with evil intentions behind the scenes. For some reason, the mastermind behind the scenes tried to provoke a fight to the death between you and me. , Fortunately, it didn't work. I just don't know why they did this and put so much effort into attracting us. They couldn't be bored, they must have a purpose. I don't know where they got it from us... Hiss. "

Lin Qi's voice stopped suddenly, his face tightened, and he asked in a dry voice: "It's broken, gem, where did you put the gem?"

"Why are we telling you this bandit."

"You don't need to tell me, but is there anyone guarding there now?" Lynch asked anxiously, "I suspect that their purpose is to spark conflict between us, and then take the opportunity to take away the gems. They want to use the gems." Someone who finds something strange.”

As he spoke, Lin Qi gritted his teeth, released the little deep diver's neck, and said seriously: "This is my sincerity. You'd better confirm first. That gem is very dangerous. In any case, it cannot fall into the hands of anyone with malicious intentions. inside."

The little girl rubbed her neck and glared at Lin Qi fiercely. All the deep divers breathed a sigh of relief. Some people started to make moves, but the white-haired old deep diver waved his hand and suppressed the evil thoughts of the tribesmen, with a look on his face. He looked thoughtful and seemed to think what Lynch said made sense.

"It's impossible. The things are very safe. It's our most tightly guarded place. Even if your high-level soul-shifters come, don't try to take it away."

The little girl curled her lips, but the white-haired deep diver whispered a few words into her ear, and then the little girl bit her lips and reluctantly raised her fingers at Lin Qi.

"Come with me, I'll let you see it with your own eyes, and I'll deal with you later."

With that said, he asked a group of deep divers to surround Lynch and return to the first officer's room with him surrounded.

The room was still the same as before. Dozens of sailor corpses were floating in the gray mud under the big hole. The little girl waved her hand at the entrance of the hole, and a corpse floated up. It floated all the way to the entrance of the hole, and the corpse was placed on the bed before death. The wooden box seen in Resonance.

"You see, robber, this is the safest place in the entire ship. It is guarded by Dagon himself. Nothing can happen."

Phew, Lin Qi breathed a sigh of relief. He didn’t intend to snatch the gem anymore and started to think of a way to escape: "Anyway, it’s good that this thing is fine."

"Of course it's okay, look."

With that said, the little girl opened the wooden box, and then everyone's eyes widened.

The wooden box was empty, with nothing in it.
