Chapter 436: Yingjue's Apology
Chapter 436: Yingjue's Apology
Santa Gotti Hotel is a very high-end hotel in Lingdun South City. The decoration in the room is luxurious and exquisite.
When the two passed by the downstairs of the hotel last night, they were thinking of finding a place to spend the night.
If you can choose a good one, naturally you can't treat yourself badly.
But after all, something just happened, and someone checked in in the middle of the night, it was easy to be missed by people with a heart.
Therefore, the two did not register at the front desk, and went directly over the wall into the 4001 room.
It was a sneaky night.
Early in the morning, Su Lun woke up on the luxurious bed in the room.
He looked at Sabina lying beside him, and gave a secret praise.
Pure hearted?
Do not!
In front of the succubus, there is no qualification for few desires.
This night of tossing, actually made Su Lun, a professional with the best physique among the fifth-order professionals, still feel a little tired after resting all night, but it can be imagined that it consumes a lot of energy.
[B-005-Succubus] This talent does not mention other abilities, just talking about seduction, it is definitely the ultimate seduction in the world.
Moreover, the talent ability will also increase as the rank increases.
Although Su Lun had already learned it, Sabina is now more proficient in those pleasure skills. This night, Su Lun fully enjoyed the ultimate experience of the senses floating in the clouds.
There was probably a slight movement, and at this time, Sabina, who happened to be beside her, also opened her eyes.
She looked at Su Lun, whose eyes fell on her, and asked with a smile, "Master, did you rest well last night?"
Su Lun looked at the meaningful ambiguous cunning in her beautiful eyes, and shook her head helplessly.
Although the succubus is good, it really loses life.
On the contrary, Sabina struggled all night, not only did she not see the slightest tiredness on her charming and pretty face, on the contrary, her blood was rosy, and her complexion became more and more radiant.
Seeing Su Lun's overwhelmed expression, she couldn't help but sneer.
It's all her own credit, why is she unhappy.
At this time, Sabina felt something, her beautiful eyes suddenly lit up, and she couldn't hide her excitement: "Hey, master! I feel that my understanding of the laws at the moment can almost be advanced to the fourth level!"
Su Lun was also slightly surprised, and asked, "So soon?"
Sabina has been trapped in the third-order for a long time, and the foundation is solid enough, but she lacks the understanding of the fourth-order law, and has been unable to condense the element barrier.
This threshold is a large threshold, and most low-level professionals are trapped here for life.
And Sabina's own comprehension ability is not too outstanding, and most of her energy is spent on intelligence work. So this hurdle, there was no big chance, it is almost impossible to sell it by yourself.
However, she also has a special talent.
Sabina's talent is the family blood inheritance [Succubus], and her family also has the method of inheriting secret cultivation.
This secret method is slightly similar to Su Lun's [Death Reaper], that is, it can directly absorb the insights of others and use it for one's own use.
Tried it before, and the effect is obvious.
But he also said that it was a long way off, but after this night, it actually became?
Sabina nodded, and didn't forget to give the master a rainbow fart by the way, and said, "Well, it's mainly because you are amazing, master. Your understanding of the law is already at the sixth level, which is a whole three higher than mine. The big rank, if you take a little bit, you can make me gain a lot."
"Oh?"
Su Lun naturally heard the flattery and joy in Sabina's tone, and was really happy for her.
Now the situation in Lingdun is complicated, and if this maid can advance to the fourth rank as soon as possible, the life-saving ability will also be greatly improved.
This is good news.
But. Just the quantity, the effect should not be so exaggerated.
Sabina obviously saw his doubts, blinked again, and explained excitedly: "Last night I used the second solution's talent secret repair, I didn't expect it to be so good! It's not just fourth-order , even the fifth-order, or even the sixth-order law comprehension, I feel that I have some ideas."
Su Lun suddenly realized.
But when he heard the second interpretation talent in Sabina's mouth, his eyes suddenly became slightly unnatural.
Generally speaking, the talent of the second solution will greatly improve the ability of the first solution, and it will also awaken some very special abilities.
Sabina's "Succubus" is called "Thousand-Change Succubus" after the second solution.
Literally.
After the second solution, not only the mental power, charm, physical toughness, etc. have been greatly improved, but she has also gained "ever-changing" new abilities.
For an intelligence professional, this is definitely a magical skill that fits Max.
As long as it is someone Sabina has seen, she can imitate it perfectly.
Not only the appearance, but even the breath is exactly the same.
If it weren't for Su Lun's ability to perceive the soul, it would be difficult to distinguish the real from the fake.
However, his soul perception is the ability brought by the second solution [S-004-Death Reaper]. Not to mention whether there is another person in the entire plane who has awakened this extremely rare S-level talent. Even if there is, it is almost impossible to achieve two solutions.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, Sabina's ability to change is extremely difficult to reveal.
This ability is also the most important reason for her to gain a firm foothold in Lingdun in a short period of time and to collect information safely.
This ability is excellent for collecting information in disguise on weekdays.
But last night, Sabina showed how wonderful this ability can be for pleasure.
It turned out that while she was many times happy, she also gained many insights?
Gee, amazing talent.
Su Lun thought of some beautiful images from last night.
Sabina keenly captured some of his changes, and winked like a thread: "Master, do you want me to help you get up?"
After waking up, Su Lun didn't plan to get tired of the bed.
Hearing this fragrant proposal, he still refused decisively.
Although the succubus is good, it cannot be greedy.
What's more, they sneaked into the hotel room. Although no one disturbed them in the middle of the night, the hotel would continue to welcome guests after dawn. Although people who come can sense it in advance, it is easy to be caught off guard and disturb the interest.
Su Lun lifted the quilt, got up decisively and left Wenrou Township, and only said, "I still have business today."
"Oh."
Sabina replied obediently, and said, "Then I will serve the master to dress you."
This service was finally serious.
Although Sabina became more and more "presumptuous", she never forgot her identity.
She got up and got busy.
In Lu Ying, it is standard for nobles to serve and live with maids. When you get up without three or five young girls in maid uniforms to wash their faces and brush their teeth, others will suspect that you are bankrupt.
Su Lun doesn't have the hedonistic tastes of a noble man. He wanted to do it himself, but Sabina refused.
From washing to dressing, he didn't do much himself, Sabina was like a qualified maid who would always take care of everything.
Before long, the window was lit up.
There was the roar of steam locomotives on the block, and the city of Lington was gradually waking up.
Sabina had just dressed Su Lun when one of her encrypted communicators rang.
She walked over, picked up the handbag by the bedside, read the news, turned to Su Lunhui and reported: "Sir, there is news from "Ying Jue", saying that the matter last night has been resolved. Now, the person who leaked the information at the dance party was found out, and the matter was clarified. So give us an explanation. "
"."
Su Lun listened without saying a word, but thought appeared in his eyes.
This is what I expected last night. The members broke the rules of the dance, and the organizer will intervene to solve it.
I didn't expect it to be solved in just one night, that person's energy is indeed not small.
Su Lun didn't want to risk showing his face again, but he still thought about the imported equipment.
Thinking that there is really no problem with the party party at the moment, and after considering various risks and possibilities, he said, "Okay. Contact them and see what they want to explain."
With permission, Sabina used the communicator to go back.
Soon, she got a reply, saying: "They have already caught everyone. Except for the few who died during the interrogation, they were sent over alive and wanted to show us. Then they brought the "Shadow Lord" " for some apology. "
"Did someone bring it here?"
Su Lun rolled his eyes as he listened, and some responses immediately appeared in his mind, and said, "Let's meet in an open place then."
That's fine too.
As long as people are alive, he can search for souls.
The truth of the matter cannot be concealed with just a few words.
Sabina nodded and asked again: "Then at the Library of Congress Square? There are not too many people there in the morning, and it is very empty. And Mr. Hei is also there, so it shouldn't be a big problem."
Sabina knew Lington's situation better than herself, and Su Lun also felt that the arrangement was fine, and added, "Okay, let's make an appointment there."
Su Lun and Sabina quickly got dressed, left a thousand lisos for the cleaning fee in the room, and hung a cleaning sign on the door.
When the aunt in the guest room sees the money, she will happily pocket it and clean it up quietly. Instead of gossiping around and complaining that two thieves came and stayed for the night last night and messed up the room.
The two jumped off the balcony on the fourth floor.
In a deserted alley at the corner, Su Lun took out a steam motorcycle, started it, and drove Sabina all the way through the city streets and alleys.
Twenty minutes later, they had reached the block next to the Library of Congress Square in Franklin.
I picked up the motorcycle in advance, and then walked all the way, and found no abnormality.
There are no high-level professionals ambush, there are no large numbers of professionals hiding, everything is normal.
The sky was gray, and the early morning sun occasionally poured on the square through the clouds.
The fountain was rustling, and several early pigeons were already feeding on the square.
When Su Lun came, he happened to see a homeless boy in a tattered cap, attracting a plump pigeon with a few crumbs of bread, then grabbed it and stuffed it into his clothes and ran away quickly.
It's only eight o'clock, and the plaza administrator has not yet gone to work. It is also the best time for homeless people to catch pigeons to improve their meals.
Su Lun walked over with Sabina with a black umbrella in his hand as a crutch.
It's not a rest day, there are not many people in the square, and it's clear at a glance.
A refrigerated freight truck with the words "Nancheng Meat Union Factory" was parked on the side of the square.
There are two people in the cab, all third-order professionals.
There are six more in the carriage.
But to Su Lun, there was no threat at all.
Sabina glanced at it and confirmed, "That's the car of the Red Oak Club."
Su Lun nodded, and the two walked over.
Sabina participated in the ball under the disguise of "Countess Demacula", and there was no need to hide it, and the two walked over directly.
The people in the car seemed to recognize Sabina, opened the door and walked out.
These were two burly men in suits and trench coats. The one with a scar on their face looked at Sabina and said respectfully, "Dear madam, someone brought it to you."
With that said, he greeted the other one who opened the truck compartment.
Sabina glanced at it, showing the indifference that a high-level noble should have, and asked, "What's going on?"
The Scarred Man said: "The one who leaked your information at the dance was Myra Truman from the 'Red Parrot Trading Company'. There were four people participating in the dance, one driver, and a showgirl. Sorry, but, The woman didn't hold back during the interrogation and was already dead. In the car were Truman and his two introducers, and a few other people involved."
Su Lun was somewhat impressed by the "Red Parrot Trading Company", which was the family company of a large plantation owner in the south of Luying. The main trading of bulk agricultural and animal husbandry products such as crystal clear cocoa, cotton, and lumber can be regarded as a century-old rich family in the south. That Truman was a first-class rich man even in the imperial capital of Lington.
Sabina listened to her expressionless face, and asked the scarred man, "Don't mind my people asking about the situation in person?"
The scarred man respectfully said: "Of course. Lord Shadow Lord sent us to bring people here, just to give you an explanation. You can do whatever you want. "
Sabina glanced at it, and the "bodyguard" Su Lun understood immediately.
He got into the car directly, and then closed the compartment door with a "bang".
Inside were six people with scars all over their bodies, still breathing heavily, but it looked like they were tortured a lot last night.
Su Lun identified the soul of one of them, and it was indeed the member he met at the dance last night.
Seeing someone coming up, he was sober and his face immediately showed despair and pleading.
But Su Lun didn't have time to waste time with these people.
He took out a sharp dagger and wiped the six people's throats neatly.
Six clusters of "grey fog" appeared on the corpse. After Su Lun harvested it, he digested it and immediately understood the plot of last night.
The two introducers had no knowledge of it, and Cun was simply implicated.
Only that Truman was the mastermind.
Just as Su Lun expected, someone used the imported machinery to fish again.
Not only in the full moon dance, but also in many black market channels.
As long as Su Lun pays attention to mechanical news in Lingdun City, he will almost always come into contact with various versions of "bait".
Once you are interested, you will definitely be hooked.
It was only because Su Lun had only been in Lington for two days, and before he had time to hang out, he went to the dance first.
But the problem also came, this Truman is just a pawn.
He just leaked the news according to the predetermined plan, and he would not need to participate later, and he didn't know much information.
Moreover, Su Lun discovered a conspiracy to kill the driver last night, and those behind the scenes were very decisive when they knew that the matter was exposed, and cut off the line directly.
All the "uplines" Truman could contact were silenced.
Therefore, in the end, it is not known who is behind the scenes.
Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't know.
Anyway, Su Lun can also guess that there are only a few companies that can make a rich man an informant.
Su Lun is less interested than how it happened.
Instead, he was more concerned about the sequelae.
Since he was able to be fished last night, the information might be leaked.
The good news is that after carefully scouring Truman's memory, Su Lun found that these people did not know Sabina's identity at the ball.
Just follow a specific program to fish.
When the fish is hooked, go to the next step, and the ambush is also another person.
Even the dead driver didn't know that his car was "Countess Demacula".
If it's not exposed, it's not a big problem.
Su Lun also breathed a sigh of relief
Su Lun got the information he wanted, and he deliberately delayed for a while before walking out of the carriage.
It makes people feel that they are not killing people as soon as they go up, but they are really "interrogated" for a while.
However, the two men in suits didn't care what he was up for.
The information of these people has been caught, and it has no value anymore.
The guests killed if they wanted to.
Watching Su Lun get out of the car, Sabina immediately understood the meaning behind his indifferent expression.
Now that there are no sequelae, it is time to pay compensation.
The scarred man obviously understood, and without waiting for her to read, he said directly: "Lord "Shadow Lord" has brought the most sincere apology to Mrs. The adults also said that the follow-up troubles have been dealt with, and will never disturb your life, Mrs., and also guarantee that this kind of thing will never happen again at the dance party in the future, please rest assured. "
As he spoke, he took out a box and opened it. It was a gold coin with the pattern of an old pipe.
Sabina obviously knew what it was, and a strange color flashed through her eyes.
The scarred man handed over the gold coin box and said, "Sir said that the transaction last night will be executed according to the contract, and that batch of goods will be shipped normally according to your needs. There is no need to pay the subsequent payment for the goods, and the right should be our red oak tree. The apology. Moreover, the lord also asked me to bring this token as a gift of apology for the accident last night, please accept it, madam.”
Su Lun checked it out, nothing special, and naturally accepted it for Sabina.
The two gang members were also very straightforward in their work. After informing them of their intentions, they agreed on some matters for delivery by sea in two days. They didn't stay any longer and drove away directly.
After waiting for the truck to disappear to the corner, Su Lun asked curiously, "Is there anything special about this pipe gold coin?"
Thoughts flashed across Sabina's eyes, she said solemnly, "This is a token. I can let that "Shadow Lord" solve a trouble in person. "
After a pause, she was afraid that Su Lun didn't understand the meaning of the gold coin, and explained again: "I have never seen this gold coin, but I just heard that someone got it at the dance, it seems to solve a big problem. Although I don't know exactly what it solved. But there is a legend circulating at the ball that this gold coin can solve all the troubles in Lingdu! For example, if you want to sleep with a royal princess, sir, you can use it."
"That's it"
When Su Lun heard this, he realized that the rumors in the rivers and lakes came from this way.
Moreover, since Sabina said it, that is to say, is there a high probability that it can really be done?
He looked at the pipe gold coin again, and immediately felt that the adventure was worth it.
It's obviously an exaggeration to say that it can solve all troubles, but it's really invaluable.
From attending the dance yesterday to dealing with those leakers today, he acted resolutely and decisively. Su Lun also saw that this "Shadow Jue" is more mysterious and more powerful than the rumors in the rivers and lakes.
At least that batch of imported equipment is worth billions of lisos, and if you give it away, you can send it.
And after this incident, Su Lun also tried to find out that the dance party is indeed not the same as the fisherman.
At least for now, there is no hostility towards them.
That kind of thing happened last night, outsiders may not know what happened, but the "Shadow Lord" who interrogated those people must have guessed why Su Lun needs these equipment.
If the information is well-informed, that person has even guessed that Sabina's disguised "Countess Demacula"'s purchase of equipment may be directly related to "Dawn".
But today, no one was sent to ambush, but instead, he apologized, probably because he really had no interest in the mechanical technology and neuro-mechanical technology in Su Lun's hands.
It is also possible that this is a gesture of goodwill, jealousy, or other reasons.
But with this kind of bearing, it is definitely not an ordinary gangster.
The "Shadow Lord" or the force he represents must be standing very high.
It must be one of the few people who look at the scenery at the top of Luying's pyramid.
This made Su Lun even more curious about his identity.
He even guessed that the "Shadow Lord" might be the Lance family behind Ekaterina.
After all, his cheap fiancee was also one of the few people in the Lu Ying Empire who met this condition.
However, according to the current information, it seems that the conditions are not fully met.
This makes people very suspicious.
Su Lun and Sabina didn't stay in the square, or even bothered Mr. Hei, they just left.
They got good news and a lot of money early in the morning, and both of them were in a good mood.
Not long after, there was feedback about the news that "Bakeqi Biopharmaceutical Company" was producing medicines last night.
That new drug was called [Scarlet Potion], and its purpose was to specifically treat the Red Death that was gradually spreading at the bottom of Lingdun. The original plan was to release the new drug in a few days.
The problem now is that there is no problem with this medicine at all.
Moreover, the major shareholder behind this pharmacy company is the Rodriguez family, one of the six members of the House of Representatives, and ordinary people are not qualified to stop it.
So normal means can't stop Bakqi from selling new drugs.
Once sold on a large scale, the number of people contaminated with parasites will skyrocket.
But this doesn't need Su Lun to worry about it,
He had already passed the message on to Ekaterina.
Others say there is no evidence, but she will definitely believe in herself.
Although he didn't know what his fiancée was going to do, Su Lun knew that since the Lance family chose to marry the ambitious Rhaegardi family, they must have made a lot of plans.
If the imperial power is really controlled by the believers of the gods, it is definitely not what the Lance family wants to see.
Su Lun didn't bother about the [Scarlet Elixir] anymore, mainly because he wanted to manage it, and he couldn't get involved in that level.
But his intuition told him that things seemed to be weird.
There is obviously a big pharmaceutical company that sells medicines. If it wasn't for Su Lun's tone, he could see it ahead of time, and large-scale pollution has become an inevitable fact.
But why is it "overkill" to arrange for the gang to disperse the medicine ahead of time?
Or do the important people handle it themselves?
He thought of the "curator" he taught before, that guy must be extremely powerful in controlling the [Ghost Bride]. Even among the followers of the Outer Gods, they are probably high-level cardinals.
Intuition made Su Lun feel that there might be some tricks behind this incident that he didn't realize.
But the next full moon dance will be half a month away.
He asked Sabina to inform the intelligence personnel of the Mirror Organization to investigate the origin of the "curator", and by the way, to investigate what was abnormal in the area where the Vaughan Brotherhood was occupied before.
Everything has been explained, and the rest of the investigation will take time.
Su Lun and Sabina drove to Luying Royal Academy.
There's still work to do today.
He was going to see the situation of the [Isaac Alchemy Manuscripts] kept in the Royal Academy, and by the way, he would also take a look at his eldest disciple, Jike, who was stocking up on it.
