The red moon returns

Chapter 281 You are not her
"This ancient tomb is the tomb of the last emperor of the Yark Dynasty at the end of the Third Age. Although the Yark Dynasty at that time had almost perished due to plague and war, it was the emperor's tomb after all, and there were still many ancient wonders buried in it. Those are very valuable treasures. Hehe, as long as I can come back alive this time, I, the big-nosed hunting dog, can retire. "

Do you want to think again about what you just said? Or go out and look up. Is there an extra star in your sky?
Seeing the rude antiquities hunter Jack Adams taking a sip of beer and frantically adding drama for himself, Lynch could only sigh, look at him with nostalgic eyes and laugh.

In fact, the atmosphere was actually quite good, very much like before setting off on a normal mission.

As if feeling that Selene, a beautiful woman, was not easy to get in touch with, Carl Jones's attention returned to the lazy Jenna, and the two danced in the open space of the entertainment room to the music of the gramophone.

Rooney, the ancient books broker, and Jack, the antiquities hunter, sat side by side at the bar, chatting casually with Lynch about the operation. Salin, the folklorist dressed as Tom the bartender, still stood expressionless at the bar, saying nothing. Wiping the wine glass, Lin Qi always felt that his eyes were wandering around with bad intentions.

As for Judy...this girl still looked half asleep and half awake, sitting at the bar with a book in her arms, but there was a strange look hidden in her confused eyes, which was always accompanied by a burning heat that reached her soul, time and time again. Sweeping across Lynch's body.

"Ignore her, she is a fool, she often stares at others like this." The bearded man wiped off the wine stains on his beard and said in a loud voice, "She was mysteriously eroded and almost distorted when she was studying ancient characters a few years ago. Although he didn't die in the end, his brain was damaged. Most of the time when he was not working, he looked like this, which was useless. She's such a nuisance with such a dangerous job."

Oh, but you were the one who brought this girl here just now, and it seems like it's you every day, so just keep your mouth shut and I'll watch you perform. Besides, does she usually see other people being roasted like this? So you must be having a hard time these days, or am I the only one who can feel it?

Thought to himself, Lin Qi still maintained his high attitude and smiled noncommittally.

Rooney on the side sighed: "But don't forget, the most valuable thing is to be left to Howard. We can only take what is left of him."

"The rest is enough for me to enjoy for the rest of my life. Hahahaha, I'm not greedy. Are you interested in that thing, Rooney?"

The gentle middle-aged man covered his twitching lips with a cocktail and muttered something unknown. When he put it down again, his expression had returned to calm: "I only want the classics in it, and the other things have nothing to do with me. What's more, there is Selene. The lady is here, hehe, her sudden joining is probably to help Mayor Howard ensure that no one will try to take advantage of his share."

"Oh, that's not true. I'm just here to watch the fun. I want to make sure that there is someone else involved in this matter." Lin Qi added to the fire casually, then covered his mouth and chuckled, "You don't have to pay attention to me. , I listen to your arrangements, I think you should have already made a plan, there is no need to change it just because I show up, just tell me and I will cooperate. "

"The plan is actually quite simple, Howard has arranged it all."

After the song ended, Carl and Jenna returned to the bar and happened to hear what Lynch said. Carl diligently pulled out a stool for Dr. Jenna and helped her sit down, and then bowed to Lynch:
"Beautiful lady, we..."

"Karl." Cautious Rooney paused his cup.

"Don't worry, I checked while dancing just now. Both Howard and Walker confirmed Ms. Selene's identity. It's just that the beautiful lady is acting with us. Our mayor said that she only has this intention now. , I’m still discussing with Ms. Selene to see what she wants.”

Although he didn't know how this person came to seek confirmation, Lynch was relieved, knowing that his excuse had successfully dispelled these people's suspicions. It seems that Mayor Howard is not in vain. He is well versed in the art of speaking. A simple change gave himself room to avoid the possibility of being tricked into telling the truth. He is really a considerate and good employer, and now those questions that were inconvenient to ask them are finally answered.

Rooney immediately closed his mouth, his eyes flickered, and he nodded without stopping.

"The day after tomorrow, that is, we will set off overnight on the night of June 20th, and enter the target early on the 21st, the undeveloped Yark Tomb. Yark Tomb is notoriously troublesome, so we professionals have been gathered here , we need to enter the depths of the tomb before midnight on the 21st, and hold a ceremony in the main tomb chamber. There will be another group of people at the same time as us. I don’t know the specific situation, but they will also enter. In another tomb, a ceremony will be held simultaneously with ours, and the treasures hidden in that tomb will be sent to us through the key items you brought. At that time, Howard will take the same from it, as well as the other treasures and the burial objects in the tomb. The goods will be divided equally among the six of us."

It turned out to be the case.

Although it was not very detailed, Lynch had found the last piece of the puzzle and connected everything.

Prince William and Howard had known about the mirror from some unknown source two years ago, and had also found a way to contact the Swollen Daughter.

So they took the opportunity of preparing for the railway project and used some special method to craft a mysterious document at the expense of national destiny and human life. Then they contacted the Swollen Daughter through the document, and finally at the expense of the whereabouts of the Miracle Light. In exchange for the full assistance of the mirror and the swollen daughter.

The key to the specific method is to copy the body gem.

According to the experience of entering that world last time, the person who enters and his belongings will appear in that dream-like world, but the real body actually remains in the real world. Then the plan is most likely that the six murderers from the internal group will bring the replica gems and be sucked into the dream through those symbols. Once successful, they will hold the dream gems in the dream, but the replica gems will still remain in the world.

At this time, the external team will arrive at the designated location with the replica gem. Lynch probably did not choose this location randomly. It is possible that the Swollen Daughter stole the mirror from that location. So after both parties reached the target, they performed the ceremony at the same time, using duplicates that had the same mysterious identity as the mirror to form a suspension bridge at both ends, and return the mirror stolen by the evil god to the living world.

It is indeed a bit complicated, but Lynch still completed most of the details without guessing. If this set of inferences is correct, then the key to the problem is not the internal group, but the external group. The interior is the territory of the evil god. Those wanted criminals who dare to enter, no matter whether they have bad intentions or not, will hardly make any move under the evil god's gaze. Lin Qi even thinks that those people will be controlled by his companions, those swollen girls, if they enter. , controlled by them to complete the work.

Therefore, the key to this matter lies in the external group, which is very maneuverable, so whether you want to promote the ceremony or destroy the ceremony, you must keep an eye on the external group.

Maybe the lie can be turned into the truth. It would be a good idea for me to actually follow the external team.

It depends on how you can convince Howard, and then think about it. But no matter what method is used, the inner ghost must first be found to calm his heart.

The question is, how could such an important task be handed over to six outsiders gathered together? Unsurprisingly, there must be Howard's real cronies among them. It's just that the cronies failed to find the insider successfully, so they asked me to provide the second insurance.

It seems that rather than finding the mole, it is more important to find Howard's cronies first, otherwise it will be inconvenient to do anything.

But who could it be?
Lynch glanced around the crowd without trace. A group of people were gathering together to study the tomb information provided by Howard, and they seemed not to notice Lynch's prying eyes at all.

Carl Jones, the most active playboy and suspected agent of the Watch.

Dr. Jenna, who is not interested in anything, is suspected to be an undercover agent of the Archaeological Association.

Rooney, a cautious and clever bookseller, a soul-changer of a certain main god, is suspected of being an undercover agent of the church. Just now he reminded me, seemingly unintentionally, that one of the six people must be Howard, was it unintentional? He is Howard's man, is he secretly revealing his identity to me? Or is he the inner ghost, knowing that I am also the same kind, so he shows his identity in another direction?

Salin, a liar with strange motives, seems to be deliberately spying on all his companions, which is very suspicious.

Jack Adams, the one who is least like a mole, deliberately creates conflicts with Dr. Jenna, and seems to be estranged from the relationship, which is also suspicious.

There is also the last Judy Butterfly. The target revealed by the mole is the Church of the Sun, and she is like a human-shaped furnace to me. Could she actually be a believer of the Church of the Sun disguised as the Lord of Fire? What about the Soul One?

Maybe we can find out more about her first. Seeing that she doesn't look very smart all year round, she might be easier to deceive... huh? Where are people?
Thinking of Judy, Lin Qi realized that the girl did not study the map with the others and ran away to someone unknown. Others were accustomed to this and had no reaction.

Lin Qi was just about to look for someone, but when he turned around, he was startled by a pair of black eye circles. Judy had come to him at some point, holding a book with her eyes wide open, staring straight at him.

what's the situation?
Lin Qi realized that he could no longer ignore the girl's weirdness, and he couldn't ignore the heat and pressure in the girl's eyes.

Seeing that no one else was paying attention, Lynch forced himself to maintain the calmness that belonged to Selene, took a deep breath, and was about to open his mouth to ask something.

But Judy had already taken a step forward, threw herself into his arms, and shrank as if to keep warm.

At the same time, a hoarse and trance-like voice sounded low and close to his ears.

"You are not her."

"You're him, I found you, thief."

The sound that only the two of them could hear made Lin Qi's scalp tingle.

Damn it, who are you?

The next moment, Lin Qi's eyes suddenly lit up, and a huge fireball slowly rose.
