Please charm this NPC

After finally coaxing Abu Le, Ran Wenyu took him back to the cabin, and met Yue Dongmei who was fidgeting waiting head-on.

Seeing Ran Wenyu, Yue Dongmei's eyes lit up, and she quickly walked up to her. As soon as the two investigators met, they looked at each other and said in unison, "How is it?"

After a pause, Ran Wenyu and Yue Dongmei were a little embarrassed, so they said in unison: "Not bad."

Abel looked at the two people who were in sync, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Sensing the signs of the fragrance of the sea of ​​vinegar appearing faintly around him again, Ran Wenyu coughed dryly and gestured to Yue Dongmei, motioning her to speak first.Yue Dongmei secretly glanced at Abu Le, who was staring at her with unfriendly eyes, and quickly straightened her face: "Just now, I talked to Li Yunfei a lot, and finally I was deceived and threatened, so he let go."

While talking, Yue Dongmei took Ran Wenyu and Abel to the sofa in the corner and sat down.

"It has been confirmed that the story we inquired about is indeed indistinguishable. Ronghua's mother, Rong Qing, survived the shipwreck for no apparent reason, but was insane. She was pregnant before she was married and gave birth to Ronghua. In the village, Ronghua had always He was criticized and rejected by the villagers because of rumors about the son of the sea monster, but before Ronghua really changed, Li Yunfei never believed in such rumors, and never took it to heart." Yue Dongmei sighed softly He breathed a sigh of relief, with a little pity on his expression, "It wasn't until Ronghua began to dream of his hometown and the sea continuously, and signs of inhumanity gradually appeared on his body, that Li Yunfei suddenly remembered the rumors he heard in his childhood and youth. Realize that this doesn't seem to be out of the blue."

"Dr. Tan previously diagnosed that Ronghua had ichthyosis. Li Yunfei was also skeptical about this. He tried to investigate this disease, but he didn't get any relevant information. He only found 'ichthyosis' with a similar name. '. Of course, because he didn't dare to investigate with great fanfare, he himself is not sure if this is what Dr. Tan said. Because it is too rare, the information is scarce, and he himself does not want to believe Ronghua from the bottom of his heart. He will turn into a sea monster, so he forced himself to firmly believe what Dr. Tan said." Yue Dongmei shrugged, "It can be regarded as a classic deception and self-deception."

"So, he really suspected that Ronghua had the blood of a sea monster as in the legend, so he became a sea monster?" Ran Wenyu asked.

Yue Dongmei nodded.

Ran Wenyu: "Then why hasn't he said anything?"

"Because he is worried that once Ronghua is mentioned, he will become a monster, and none of us will help him find it. After all, normal people don't want to have anything to do with such strange things." Yue Dongmei said helplessly, "I'm also a threat If he doesn't tell the truth, we won't continue the investigation, he has no choice but to admit it."

Ran Wenyu nodded, expressing his understanding - if he hadn't been pulled into the team running game by KP and had to solve one incident after another that was beyond the scope of human cognition before he could leave, he would have turned around and run away, protecting himself first.

"This is almost the case here. What about yours? What have you learned?" After briefly talking about her progress, Yue Dongmei turned to Ran Wenyu, "I just saw that Dr. Tan came back. Very happy, what did you say?"

"It was an open and honest chat." Ran Wenyu said lightly, and dropped a shocking giant melon without warning, "He admitted that he was indeed the mastermind behind this incident, and he brought Ronghua back to his hometown. It is to let him transform into a sea monster smoothly."

Yue Dongmei:? ? ? ! ! !

Just after returning, Yang Hongliang and Kang Jian, who were smashed by a giant melon and staring at gold stars:? ? ? ! ! !

The three investigators were all stunned by Ran Wenyu's words. For a while, none of them spoke, and they were all trying to digest the message.

After a while, Yang Hongliang and Kang Jian also sat on the sofa, and together with Yue Dongmei, looked at Ran Wenyu with burning eyes and curiosity: "Why did he admit it so easily?!"

"Because..." Ran Wenyu scratched his hair, feeling very uncomfortable being watched by his friends, "Because we still have a relationship. In the last module, it happened that he was also behind the scenes, so he still tore me apart completely. The one who broke his face and showed his true colors. The first time I saw him after boarding the boat, I felt that this person gave me a very familiar feeling. Later, I felt that his every move was very similar to that of the previous module. Boss, so when I found an opportunity this time, I simply scammed him, but I didn't expect him to admit it without any concealment—to be honest, I was quite surprised."

Yue Dongmei nodded suddenly: "That's what you said to Li Yunfei earlier in his room... what 'forward'?"

"It's Xu Xiangqian, his disguised identity in the last mod." Ran Wenyu corrected.

Having committed crimes against the same BOSS twice in a row, it is indeed considered "a freshman once, acquainted twice".The three investigators sighed for a moment: "So, what happens after he confesses?"

"Since his goal is to let Ronghua transform into a sea monster smoothly, and our goal is to let Ronghua and Li Yunfei meet again, then there is no contradiction between the two. So I discussed it with him, and he promised me not to intervene The only requirement of our plan is that we can't kill any sea monsters." Ran Wenyu replied honestly, "I agreed. Because I think it's better to be merciful to sea monsters than to deal with this hard steel boss who doesn't know how deep he is. Something, it should be easier."

"That's right." Yue Dongmei nodded in agreement, "This time, the opponent's combat power is actually not too strong, not much different from that of humans. Even if there is a conflict, it is indeed possible to stun the enemy or make the enemy lose the ability to move." .”

Since Ran Wenyu and Yue Dongmei both judged in this way, Yang Hongliang and Kang Jian, who knew nothing about the enemy, naturally had no contrary opinion-although the requirement of "not killing the enemy" made the battle round more difficult, but compared At the same time, you need to be on guard against the BOSS stabbing in the back at all times, which is indeed good news for the investigators.

After all, enemies hidden in the dark are always more terrifying than those on the bright side.

Immediately afterwards, Yue Dongmei shared with Kang Jian and Yang Hongliang what she had learned about the past in the village, and the two big men felt sympathetic.After talking about the experience of my group, it was Kang Jian and Yang Hongliang's turn.

"Compared to you, our gains are not great, but we also got an important message." Kang Jian's spirit was shocked.He took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Yue Dongmei to check. On it was a very concise and abstract map.

"Brother Yang and I left the village and didn't know where to go, so we decided to walk around the village and survey the surrounding environment." Kang Jian pointed to the map, "Needless to say, the southeast of the village is A section of coastline, with dense forests in the south and west, and a cliff in the north, it can be called isolated from the world. We walked along the coastline and the edge of the forest, and did not enter the interior of the forest, and the cliff was very high. We couldn’t get over it either. Just when we walked around and thought we were going to return in vain this time, we came to the place where the cliff meets the coastline.”

With that said, Kang Jian leaned over and pointed to a place marked with a small "X" on the map: "This is it."

Kang Jian's expression was very serious. As soon as Ran Wenyu and Yue Dongmei heard it, they knew that the main dish was coming.

"This area is a group of reefs. When we passed by, we found a person sitting on a reef rising half a person's height from the sea—or a humanoid creature." Kang Jian deliberately lowered his voice, looking mysterious Mysteriously, "The reef is more than ten meters away from the coast. It's quite far away, so I can't see it clearly. The man has been facing us, staring at the sea in a daze. He is wearing a cloth of unknown color. , wrapped ourselves tightly, Brother Yang and I really couldn't tell if he was Ronghua or not. After all, we only met Ronghua once, and now we can't even remember what he looks like. He was recognized from the back."

"And then?" Yue Dongmei was also excited and asked impatiently.

"Then..." Kang Jian scratched his hair, "Then, I tried to call out, it was Ronghua. I think most people will instinctively look back when they hear my name?"

"Yes, this is indeed a good way to confirm your identity." Ran Wenyu agreed, "How about that person's reaction?"

Kang Jian spread his hands, very helpless: "The man didn't look back at all, and he didn't answer us at all, but when he heard the sound, he plunged into the water as if he was frightened, and disappeared. So we can't judge ourselves at all. The one I saw, is it Ronghua?"

For such a result, Ran Wenyu and Yue Dongmei were also a little disappointed: "What's next? You left?"

"Of course not!" Kang Jian shook his head, "Brother Yang and I didn't give up, we just wandered around there, paying attention to the situation on the sea, and wanted to see if that person would reappear. However, he disappeared completely. He didn’t emerge from the sea, so we think he is probably a sea monster, and humans should not have such a strong lung capacity.”

Having said that, Kang Jian turned his head and looked at Yang Hongliang, who had been very quiet all along: "Brother Yang has navigation skills, he judged the environment of the reef group, and found that it was almost all large and small reefs, and many of them sank at the bottom of the water. No matter how small a ship is, it is impassable, and there must be few villagers who will wander around in that area. From this point of view, for sea monsters, the reefs are indeed good hiding places."

"That's right, I also think it's really important there!" Yue Dongmei cheered up again.

"Then, we asked KP to see if we could dive into the bottom of the sea to further investigate the situation. KP gave us luck and told us that since it is a luxury yacht with complete entertainment equipment, it is also equipped with diving equipment. Yang Brother's character also has not low diving skills, so we discussed that it's not too early, so we will come back to report the situation, and wait until tomorrow with diving equipment to go there and do further investigation." The more he said, the more excited Kang Jian's voice was, as if Already seeing the dawn of the group is close at hand, "Tomorrow, we may have a bigger discovery, and even directly find Ronghua's hiding place!"

"Come on!" Yue Dongmei patted Kang Jian's shoulder approvingly, "There should be nothing to investigate in the village. Let's go together tomorrow so we can take care of you."

Although it was a tiring day today, the investigators had gained a lot, so they were in a particularly relaxed and happy mood.

Up to now, they can be said to have deciphered most of the plot, and the last one left is to find Ronghua, and let Ronghua and Li Yunfei, the lovers, meet again.

In fact, it is quite dangerous to let Yang Hongliang dive and investigate alone. However, among the four investigators, the other two can only swim, and Ran Wenyu is a landlubber through and through. Once in the water, let alone help. Just don't hold back.

Therefore, this wave still has to be done by Yang Hongliang alone.

"Brother Yang, when you go into the water tomorrow, you must be careful. If you see Ronghua or other sea monsters, you must be friendly and harmless, and you can communicate with body language." While eating dinner, Ran Wenyu carefully reminded, "Even if The other party is not going to communicate, and you must not conflict with them."

"Don't worry." Yang Hongliang smiled honestly. Although he was reticent, he was very mature and steady. "I'm not a group of young people like you. I know how to behave, and I definitely won't take risks."

"It would be great if Ronghua would come back with us to meet Li Yunfei." Yue Dongmei sighed, "If the 'person' that Kang Jian and Brother Yang saw today was Ronghua, then he obviously refused to show up, what should we do? "

"If Ronghua doesn't want to come to see Li Yunfei, then we can bring Li Yunfei to see him." Ran Wenyu shrugged his shoulders, and said in a casual tone, "That's not a problem."

Yue Dongmei nodded slightly, and suddenly changed the topic: "Tell me, can they continue their relationship in the end?"

"I think Xuan, the species are different, okay? One is terrestrial and the other is aquatic. It's not suitable for anyone to accompany the other, right?" The straight man's mental health is quite realistic.

Yue Dongmei gave him a supercilious look: "Sea monsters can also go ashore, okay? They live on land and sea!"

"But even if it is amphibious, it must be more inclined to the environment in the ocean, right? Otherwise, why do you have to go back to the ocean when you start to transform?" Kang Jian retorted.

Yue Dongmei was too lazy to entangle with this unromantic man, so she turned to look at Ran Wenyu.

Ran Wenyu rubbed his chin: "I think it's also quite hanging."

"Why?" Yue Dongmei stared.

"Because..." Ran Wenyu was very honest, "As far as the sea monster's face is concerned, the pressure for humans to fall in love with it is still quite high. I think Ronghua refused to see Li Yunfei, and most likely he found that he became It's too ugly, so I might as well hide away, at least I can leave a good memory for the person I like."

Yue Dongmei: "……………………"

Yue Dongmei twitched the corners of her mouth, realizing that she couldn't refute at all.
