0038 Chapter 1: Confessions of the Dead (Section 32)
The man in white gloves sighed, walked around to the back of the car and opened the trunk.
Beep-beep!
A local SUV turned up the mountain road on the other side of the bus. The driver was furious and slapping the horn desperately, and the headlights dazzled Zhen Cheng in the car.
"Asshole! What are you doing standing in the middle of the road?!"
Local talents don't care what your identity is as the person driving a luxury car, they will always curse you in Greek.
Then, he saw an Asian man dressed as a butler take out an AT-12T anti-tank rocket launcher from the trunk. Rocket launcher, quiver, launcher...
Butler Zhi Shi ignored the curses from the driver behind him and fired a shot in the direction of the bus after aiming for two or three seconds in a very standard military shooting posture.
boom!!!
"Maraka!" The car owner, who was still looking over his head and cursing, shrank his neck when he saw the flames not far away, stepped on the accelerator and reversed the car, then turned back to the corner he came from. There were several sharp tires screeching sounds.
Finally, you can see two strong lights going down the mountain road in the rainy night.
The rocket did not directly destroy the bus, but directly blew up the old road surface. After braking suddenly, the classic bus with black smoke rising from the engine stopped more than ten meters away from the explosion crater. The door opened, and even the driver took the
There were only two or three passengers in the car, and they rushed out of the car door and turned around and ran away.
The housekeeper Zhi Shi threw the fired rocket launcher on the ground, walked into the car slowly, stepped on the accelerator, and bypassed the explosion site and the stopped bus from the reverse road. Then he drifted and flicked the car.
A passenger who escaped from the bus stopped at the roadside.
Unlike the other passengers who fled back towards the town, the guy with the briefcase was the first to get out of the car and ran towards the mountain forest on the side.
"We meet again, Mr. Impas."
The housekeeper opened the car door, and Zhen Cheng walked out of the back compartment with a smile on her face. Although she smiled brightly, she bit the other person's name until it hurt.
The face of the man carrying the briefcase... well, you couldn't tell what his face looked like in the rainy night, but it probably wouldn't look good. He smiled awkwardly, and the man replied in a slightly flustered voice:
"Miss Zhen, as the heir to the Zhen family, you won't openly steal the prizes won by others after losing the game, right?"
"How is that possible? Mr. Impas, who do you think I am? Even if I am really the unscrupulous person, the name of Impas, the leader in the criminal investigation world, is still feared."
"So...what does Miss Zhen mean?" The gentleman opposite looked a little embarrassed in the rain.
On the other hand, Zhen Cheng was completely protected by the umbrella held up by the butler Zhi Shi. He spoke unhurriedly as if he was enjoying his embarrassment: "There are many enemies of Impas in the world, and they would like to kill him with a thousand knives. At the same time,
He also has many friends of great detectives. If someone really dares to attack him despite the disdain of the world, it may be difficult for him to escape unscathed."
"Miss Zhen, please speak frankly. Being caught in the rain in the wild mountains and forests at the foot of Mount Olympus at night is not a pleasant experience." The housekeeper next to Miss Zhen must not be just any cat or dog. With Zhi Shi here
Beside him, Impas's speech completely lost the arrogance he had in the mansion, and he looked very cautious.
Zhen Cheng obviously raised the corners of his mouth, and changed the subject like a cat playing with its prey: "Mr. Impas, are we familiar with each other? Or are you paying special attention to me, a junior, in your busy schedule?
You just mentioned the heir of the Zhen family... I have clearly rejected this matter from my father. And the most interesting part is that except for us members of the Zhen family, no outsiders should know about this matter.
The only time in my memory that it was possible for it to be leaked was when I was solving the nuclear crisis in Academy City. My second brother, who spoke freely, said it on a video call and was heard by several police officers present.
Involving the lives of millions of people and the face of the family, that case had a great impact. The Zhen family mobilized extraordinary people to take action. Under the dragnet arranged by this lady, almost all the prisoners were arrested, except for the mastermind codenamed Jester.
This jester is even more low-key and mysterious than Mr. Impas. Even my intelligence agency cannot find any image data. The only thing that can be known is that he is a lone ranger who has not yet stepped into the extraordinary world. He uses outstanding cunning and ruthlessness.
The fierceness that he scruples roams among the world's major criminal organizations, and he thrives.
Another interesting thing is that Mr. Fool has won more than he lost in his battles with law enforcers from all over the world, and he is very vindictive. His biggest enemy has failed almost all of them except for the Academy City nuclear deterrent case.
They all fell into the hands of the same person - the real Mr. Impas.
You see, after adding the last piece of the puzzle, aren’t all the doubts solved?
There was one of your undercover agents in the Academy City Police who was present at the time, and it was precisely because of this relationship that you were able to escape. Out of your pettiness and arrogance, you acted abnormally when you saw me in the game.
attack;
When you, as a mortal who has never really understood the extraordinary world, come into contact with the extraordinary for the first time in the game, you will run away and hide in a small space with your head in your hands, and finally appear in the final scene in that inelegant posture.
The arena of competition. This is an act that the real Mr. Impas would never do.
Finally, the real Mr. Impas has unparalleled powers of observation, but he will never be able to find his special prop the moment he enters the mansion without any clues.
The magician seems to be performing magic in front of the audience, but to his colleagues, no matter how brilliant the performance is, it cannot be a trick that cannot be figured out.
You are too conceited, Fool. You think that by killing Detective Impas, you can fool all the detectives in the world without restraint."
The gentleman carrying the briefcase still wanted to quibble, but suddenly stared at the screen of Zhen Cheng's phone and was speechless. On the screen was a close-up photo of a face. In the photo, a middle-aged man wearing a top hat, holding a pipe in his mouth, and had a pair of
Full of wisdom and sharp eyes like an eagle.
Impas is a low-key person and deliberately does not leave any images in public. This level of concealment is enough to allow him to escape the entanglement of most enemies.
But after all, he has personally participated in the detection of countless cases, so how could he be able to hide from the targeted investigations of the intelligence agencies of the three major families like a jester hiding in the dark?
Putting away the phone, Zhen Cheng showed a confident attitude of winning: "If I guess correctly, the real Mr. Impas has been killed by you, so you can participate in the game in his place without taking any risks. And this matter
Scarry must have already investigated the matter." This chapter has been completed!
