I am on the evil side? I am turning the tables!

Chapter 159 Didn’t you get the thing?

The tableware collided, making a crisp sound.

Fanta calmly sat down opposite Su Tang.

"Kid, did you go hunting last night? Or did you go stealing?" Cedric joked with him.

"Cough cough!" Su Tang was suddenly choked and picked up the juice next to him and took a few sips.

Cedric was completely unaware of the subtle relationship between the two and was still joking with Fanta.

Since the man came in, Su Tang lowered her head and drank a few sips of juice. She raised her head and accidentally met those bloodshot black eyes.

He had heavy eye bags, red eyes, and an aura of low pressure that made him look like someone who wanted to keep away from strangers.

Picking up the knife and fork, he calmly cut the food on the plate and responded to Cedric faintly.

"I have someone to steal from. I was in a bad mood last night, so I went out for a walk."

After swallowing, Su Tang lowered his head guiltily again.

Cedric was unaware and continued to joke: "If you hadn't told me, I would have thought you were heartbroken again?"

Su Tang's heart skipped a beat and he cursed Cedric inwardly, saying he was really good at talking!

Fanta's eyes did not move away, his hands that were cutting the steak paused, and the iron knife and fork bent and deformed in his hands.

"You're overthinking it. It happened decades ago. Why are you bringing it up again?"

Cedric raised an eyebrow and didn't reveal his dark history any further.

"I'm full, you guys chat slowly." Su Tang stood up, put on some oil on his feet, and disappeared in the restaurant in a flash.

Only after she walked out did she realize that this was indeed an attempt to cover up something that only made it more obvious.

"No, why should I feel guilty? I didn't do anything, why should I feel guilty?"

Patting his chest, Su Tang calmly turned around and returned to the restaurant. Under Cedric's gaze, he picked up the water glass on the table.

“This juice tastes pretty good.”

Cedric smiled and said, "If you like it, I'll have someone prepare some more for you."

Su Tang made an OK gesture, not caring whether he could understand it or not, and left with the cup. When he reached the door, he thought of something and turned to Cedric and asked, "Oh, by the way, are you free later? I have something to talk to you about."

Except for the glance just now, Fanta never took his eyes off the plate from beginning to end.

Su Tang glanced at him uncomfortably, then quickly looked away.

Cedric's eyes moved slightly, sensing some subtle atmosphere, and he stood up from his chair. "It just so happens that I've finished eating too, so go upstairs and say whatever you want to say."

"Come to the study if you need anything."

These words were spoken to Fanta. After hearing this, Fanta looked up and responded with a "OK".

The two left the restaurant together. After everyone left, Fanta finished the food on the plate in a few bites and put down his knife and fork.

The cutlery in his hand was bent beyond recognition. Looking at the deformed cutlery, he pursed his lips into a line, then picked up the knife and fork and threw them into the trash can next to him.

He got up, left the restaurant and went out of the villa.

Su Tang and Cedric returned to the study together. The study was not big, and the bookshelves were filled with books made of animal skin scrolls.

After a quick glance, Su Tang sat down on the guest sofa and placed the water cup on the coffee table.

"I came to you mainly for one thing."

"What is it?" Cedric sat down in the chair behind the desk.

"Did you give Lin Jing's things to Sivers?"

Even if it wasn't said explicitly, one could guess that it wasn't easy to take Lin Jing's things out.

"Yes, I did it." Cedric answered affirmatively.

"You touched her diary? The black one?"

He leaned back in his chair, clasped his hands, and had a faint smile on his face.

"Do you think I'm the kind of person who casually pries into other people's privacy?"

Su Tang continued to ask: "You haven't touched that book?"

Cedric sneered, "I don't have that hobby."

"That's not right." Su Tang lowered his head and whispered, "If it's not you, who could it be?"

"Her stuff, is there anything wrong?"

Su Tang said with a serious expression, "Something very important is missing. It records the construction loopholes of Guangming City."

Hearing this, Cedric's nonchalant expression faded, and his face darkened slightly, "Are you saying that the things she left behind record the weaknesses of the City of Light?"

Su Tang nodded.

He frowned in thought, kneading his brows, "I will give it to Sivers in the same condition as she gave it to me."

This is a problem. The most critical and important part has been torn away, and we don’t know who took it.

And most of them were taken away by the enemy.

Su Tang immediately began to speculate, "Who do you think took it? Pasak? Or the elders of the previous generation?"

Cedric had previously been lurking in the temple as an ordinary guard, and had few opportunities to come into contact with Lin Jing.

At that time, many people had come into contact with Lin Jing, including veterans from the previous generation as well as veterans from this generation.

There are also some commanders who hold important positions. There are so many of them and they are so diverse that it is extremely difficult to find the people who may have stolen things.

"I'm not sure, but it shouldn't be him. At that time, he basically saw Lin Jing with the previous first elder Jonal, and his face didn't look good every time he left."

"If they knew that Lin Jing drew this thing and took it away, they would definitely not look ugly."

They should be proud, they should laugh, they should never be gloomy.

“Forget it, let’s talk about that thing later. The most urgent thing now is to find the key that “He” mentioned.”

Opening the drawer, Cedric took out a stack of invitations.

"I have screened them for you, leaving only invitations from saints of high status. If that thing is really important, it will never be placed in the hands of an unknown person."

"In that case, it will most likely be sealed at home. The tea party is usually held at the host's house. You can take this opportunity to sense and see if there is anything unusual in these houses."

"Okay." Su Tang agreed, "Anything else you want to add?"

"There are some heavily guarded places. I will find a chance to take you in."

It is unlikely to get in through formal channels, so the only option is to find an opportunity to sneak in.

He looked at Su Tang for a while, "How many stars are you in strength now?"

Cedric had long known that Su Tang was unusual, and he also guessed that it must be that person's work, so he didn't doubt or ask too many questions.

However, we still need a clear understanding of what to do next before we can make a plan.

"This..." Su Tang thought for a while, "It should be the strength of the Weak Beast King, right? I have the authority of gravity, although it is a bit weakened."

"But my abilities are all about attacking, and my own physique is still no match for the Beast King. I'm even weaker than a nine-star orc."

Cedric nodded, already having a preliminary understanding of Su Tang's strength.

The person who invested a lot in Su Tang really made a lot of money.

Every goddess will obtain the top-level purification power, but so far, only Su Tang can obtain the power of bloodline.
