Genshin Impact: I am an ordinary executive

Chapter 738 The Hidden Fifth Person

"What are you talking about? What about super speed? Could it be that Mr. Cowell is very skilled?"

The simple Paimeng didn't understand the fierce competition between the two old drivers. He just looked at the angry Ying and Zuo Xi who couldn't hold back in confusion.

"Nothing, we were just saying that your reasoning is brilliant. Paimon, I really underestimated you... So, finally, explain why these two people disappeared out of thin air.

Also, you didn't give any explanation for the hook over there. You're not going to tell me that it was just an unrelated prop that appeared by accident, right?"

Zuo Xi shrugged, not intending to pollute Paimeng's pure thinking. It must be said that Paimeng's process really makes sense. Although many places are very whimsical, some key places are actually similar to the real situation.

Cowell did have a plan in advance, and he joined the Linny Magic Troupe with the intention of committing a crime.

But Paimon's guess about his motives was wrong. To be precise, it didn't matter whether the girl was Halsey or not. The person behind the scenes probably just wanted the experimental data.

The reason why Halsey was chosen was probably simply because she was the most suitable age.

In addition, the number selector and the rope were probably tampered by Cowell, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why he was hiding in the mezzanine. Unless he had other accomplices to cooperate with him in the crime, he would not be responsible for the tampering and attack alone, as he was the most convenient person to tamper with the equipment.

Even if he really had accomplices, those people would not be responsible for the operation itself. As for whether they were covering up or silencing him, it was unknown.

"There must be some hidden passage in this opera house that we don't know about. Mr. Cowell kidnapped Miss Halsey through the secret passage... As for the grappling hook... um, this must be used... to knock Miss Halsey unconscious!"

Paimon obviously didn't want her reasoning to fail. Even though she felt that her explanation was too far-fetched, she still refused to give in.

"What about the clothes? Why do they have to take off their clothes? Time is very tight, is it necessary to be so particular? And their clothes are not in the same place. Mr. Cowell's clothes are in the magic box?"

Navia came to her senses and found that she was too impatient. If she thought about it carefully... no, she didn't even need to think too carefully to find that there were still many things in Paimon's reasoning that could not be explained.

She always felt that the hook had some special purpose. And the two sets of wet clothes seemed to be more than just what they looked like.

It is correct that the two parties were entangled, otherwise the chaos at the scene and the muffled sound cannot be explained. But the girl screamed after the muffled sound. If the two really fought for a while, there would be no reason for the girl to scream.

The normal logic should be like this:

The girl was attacked - the attacker made a mistake and failed to land a winning blow on the first try - the girl screamed - they struggled - a dull sound was heard.

But she clearly remembered that the scream came after the muffled sound, so this logic was obviously wrong.

Under what circumstances would there be a muffled sound first, and then the girl still had the strength to scream? And in the next ten seconds, the two of them had to disappear in the underground passage at the same time. The time was a bit too urgent...

Navia realized that their thinking seemed to have fallen into a misunderstanding. She didn't know from which step the problem started in the direction of their thinking.

But they had no idea about this...

“Wow… So, my reasoning is wrong after all…”

Paimon suddenly became frustrated. After talking for a long time, it still didn't work. Being a detective is so difficult. She didn't want to be a detective anymore.

"It can't be said to be completely wrong. If we put aside those subjective factors, the whole process is actually very close to the truth... Forget it, since you are working so hard, I will give you a little hint."

Zuo Xi was very satisfied with Paimeng's extraordinary performance. This little guy always gave him little surprises from time to time.

As the first difficulty they have to overcome, it is not good to be too difficult. Moreover, even if the truth is revealed, they still have to face the problem of finding convincing enough evidence.

Zuo Xi would also find it boring if he was stuck at the first level.

"Ying, if the two of us fight each other without using elemental power, who do you think has a better chance of winning?"

Although Zuo Xi said he wanted to give a hint, he actually said something that seemed to have nothing to do with the current situation.

"Is this question related to what we are discussing now..."

"If it's now, I wouldn't stand a chance of winning even if I use elemental power. But if you mean before... I wouldn't be afraid of even a hundred of you."

While Navia was still wondering what the connection was between the two, the traveler answered this seemingly useless question without hesitation.

The biggest difference between Navia and Ying is the degree of trust they have in Zuo Xi. When Zuo Xi gives a hint or instruction, Navia will think about the meaning and then decide whether to do it or not.

But Ying and Paimeng will not go through this process, as they have absolute trust in Zuo Xi.

"That's right. There are many factors that affect the outcome of a duel between two people. Gender is the least important factor in some cases. It essentially represents the difference in physical fitness... So, between Cowell and Ms. Halsey, is Cowell really the winner?"

For ordinary people without God's Eye, everyone often has an inherent stereotype. People always assume that if they have the same level of training, in this case, the fighting ability of most men is stronger than that of women.

But who says women can’t beat men? Who can guarantee that both sides have the same level of training?

"You mean, it was actually Ms. Halsey who beat Mr. Cowell? But isn't Cowell a peripheral member of your Fatui? How could his skills be worse than that of an artistic painter?"

This conclusion was unexpected and not entirely reasonable. Even if a member of the Fatui was not very skilled, he should not be unable to defeat a female painter in a sneak attack.

Unless Miss Halsey is a hidden martial arts expert, but the intelligence from the security team did not indicate this. If there is such a special skill, it should be classified in the intelligence.

"Well, that's true under normal circumstances. But what if the lucky audience member is not Ms. Halsey? Haha, don't be so surprised.

You should ask the person in person for the specific situation... After listening for so long, isn't it time for you to come out and meet me, Miss Lucky Audience?"
