Are you stupid? I am the villain behind the scenes

As the car went away, the figure turned back and stood where the car had just parked, looking in the direction the car had left, thinking about the smell he had just smelled.

That was the smell of a rotting corpse.

Hua Xi was very sure that the sack that the Li family guards put in the trunk contained a corpse.

The certainty was accompanied by a bad premonition——

Could the dead person be...

"Bai Sheng!" Suddenly, a shout from behind interrupted Hua Xi's thoughts.

She turned around and saw a man wearing the same uniform as the Li family guard just now, holding cleaning tools in his hands.

When the guard saw Hua Xi turning around, his eyes suddenly widened and the tool in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.

He just saw a suspicious figure and thought it looked like Bai Sheng, so he called out casually to test it, but he never thought it was really her.

Without having time to think about why Bai Sheng appeared here, the guard's first reaction was to quickly inform Li Qingchi, who had just left.

After all, they were only martial artists at the sixth level and could not capture Bai Sheng, who was at the ninth level.

The guard was about to inform Li Qingchi, but Hua Xi did not give him the chance. He instantly came in front of him and twisted his wrist.

The guard cried out in pain, his expression distorted.

Hua Xi stared at the guard with cold eyes, "Tell me, who was the dead man just sent out?"

The guard gasped in pain and trembled as he said, "I... I don't know."

Hua Xi increased the strength of her hands and said in a cold tone, "My patience is limited."

"I said, it's Dr. Lu! The dead person is Dr. Lu!" The guard couldn't bear the pain anymore and had to tell the truth. He thought that since the person was already dead, it would not be a big deal to tell her.

When Hua Xi heard the words "Dr. Lu" coming from the guard's mouth, her heart trembled.

Lu Lun's death meant that her and Li Cenyuan's memories might never be restored.

Hua Xi clenched his fists, the blue veins on the back of his hands bulged slightly, as if he was suppressing the surging emotions in his heart.

"Who killed him?"

The guard sensed a surge of anger from Hua Xi's calm tone and was a little confused. She seemed very angry about Dr. Lu's death. Did they know each other?

This was not something he could ask, so the guard answered honestly: "I don't know. He was already dead when we found him."

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt his wrist loosen and thought that Bai Sheng was a good person. But in the next second, he was hit hard on the neck, and then his eyes went black and he fainted.

Hua Xi didn't even look at the unconscious guard at her feet, but looked straight at a door not far away. That was the place where she had just found out that Li Qingchi might be hiding Lu Lun.

But before she could find him, the person was dead.

Hua Xi will not give up just like that. Even though Lu Lun is dead, it doesn't mean that the machine cannot be manufactured.

As long as we can find the notes or design manuscripts left by Lu Lun, there is still a chance. Through those clues, we may be able to create a machine to restore memory.

Hua Xi walked forward and pushed open the door, and saw a staircase leading downwards.

Without any hesitation, she walked down.

Entering the laboratory, there were three people inside. They were carefully examining, trying to find traces of the murderer.

When they saw Hua Xi, the three of them had the same reaction as the unconscious guard outside. They were all surprised that she appeared here.

Hua Xi said nothing and knocked them out before they could react.

Then start looking.

She searched every countertop, every drawer, and every cabinet, leaving no corner where notes or manuscripts might be hidden.

However, there was not even a piece of paper in the laboratory except for intricate circuits, scattered electronic boards and various mechanical parts.

It is impossible that there were none. Unless Lu Lun knew the structure of the machine by heart, there must be design sketches left behind.

Could it be that the person who killed Lu Lun took the manuscript?

But what is the murderer's purpose?

If the murderer was interested in the memory eraser, he should have taken Lu Lun away directly instead of killing him and taking only the manuscript.

On the other hand, if the murderer was not interested in the memory erasing machine and simply wanted to kill Lu Lun, then taking the manuscript would be unnecessary.

Then, there is only one possibility left, that the murderer came for the machine, not to get it, but to destroy it.

The murderer might not want Lu Lun to create another memory erasing machine, so he killed him and took away all his records about the machine, just to prevent someone from replicating it according to his ideas.

Who is this person?

Hua Xi had a vague intuition that the other party seemed to be targeting her and knew that she was looking for Lu Lun, so he killed her in advance and took away the information.

But if he really came for her, how did he know that she was looking for Lu Lun?

She had not revealed this to anyone except Moni, and Moni would never tell anyone else.

Hua Xi's thoughts were completely interrupted here and she could not go any further.
