In the City Lord's Mansion, Du Feiyu, City Lord Moke and others were sitting in the meeting hall. According to common sense, Du Feiyu should leave. But just when he was about to leave, Lord Moke retained him and said
It was because he hoped that he could help him find out the true situation of the serial murders. After thinking for a while, Du Feiyu finally nodded and agreed. Although Du Feiyu was kind to the City Lord's Mansion by rescuing the second elder, in any case, the City Lord's Mansion could make Shan Xiao
Ya entered a treasured place like Huoling Mountain to practice and behaved in a grand manner. Du Feiyu naturally couldn't refuse to stay and help with such small things.
"There were two murders in Baal City. The murderer seemed to have disappeared without a clue. What do you think about this matter?" Lord Mok pondered.
Du Feiyu shook his head. He had just arrived and was not a private detective, so naturally he had no clue.
"We have been on guard for more than a month, and the murderer has not attacked again. Could it be that the murderer is aware of our deployment?" The ninth elder asked doubtfully.
"The murderer is in the dark and we are in the open. It is not difficult for the other party to grasp our whereabouts." City Lord Mok nodded.
"Have the City Lord's Mansion ever had any grudges with other forces over the years?" Du Feiyu suddenly asked.
"When it comes to seeking revenge, we have already investigated this matter. It should not be done by the enemy, and there was no such strange force among the enemies in the past." City Lord Mok shook his head.
"It's neither robbery nor revenge, so what's the motive of the murderer?" Du Feiyu was also a little puzzled. The murderer must have had his purpose for killing so many people, but the purpose at the moment was not clear enough.
"It's not certain yet. But judging from the situation at the scene, what should the murderer be looking for? He continued to kill people after searching to no avail. But what exactly are they looking for?" City Lord Mok nodded and fell into confusion again.
In deep thought.
After hearing this, the other people also fell silent. This matter was like a mystery, with no clue. The murderer was like a midnight ghost. As long as they relaxed a little, they would sneak in and create a conspiracy.
A terrible murder, but when they were preparing to attack with all their strength, the murderer disappeared without any movement. This kind of situation where the enemy is in the dark and we are clear makes people have the urge to go crazy. After all, they are all human beings, who dares
You say you can be on full alert 24 hours a day? And when you are on full alert, people are falling asleep. When you relax, people will come to you full of energy to attack. No matter who is doing this
This kind of thing will make you feel like you have trouble sleeping and eating.
Time slipped quietly in silence, and there seemed to be an invisible pressure in the entire meeting hall, making it difficult for everyone to calm down. City Lord Mok also wrinkled his forehead, and his right hand habitually reached into his chest and collar.
Inside, he stroked the thing on his neck. This thing was a relic left to him by his mother before she died. He had also developed a habit since childhood, that is, whenever he was stressed, he would subconsciously touch that little thing.
As if it could bring him some inspiration.
Du Feiyu tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest of the chair, his thoughts turning rapidly, imagining various possibilities.
"Du" at a certain moment, Du Feiyu's finger suddenly froze, and when he raised his head slightly, his eyes stayed firmly on the chest of City Lord Mok.
The thing that City Lord Mok was playing with looked very familiar. It was a purple bell with a faint halo of light flowing on it. It was exactly the same as the one Shan Xiaoya gave him back then.
"What? What did you think of?" Du Feiyu's unusual reaction also made City Lord Mok come back from his thoughts and asked immediately.
"I think... maybe I really thought of something." Du Feiyu stared closely at the bell in Lord Mok's hand, and a bold idea came to his mind.
"Lord Mok, can you show me your ornament?" Du Feiyu said after finishing the idea.
"Oh?" Hearing this, although City Lord Mok was confused, he took off the bell as instructed and handed it to Du Feiyu.
Playing with the little bell carefully, Du Feiyu's idea became more and more determined.
"City Lord Mok, set up a hundred-foot-high pole in the city lord's mansion, hang this bell on the tall pole, and at the same time order all the elders to return to the mansion and ambush all around. If the prediction is correct, within seven days, maybe
There is movement." Du Feiyu said after checking the bell in his hand again and throwing it back to Lord Mok.
"Tell all the elders to return home? What if another murder occurs elsewhere?" the great elder asked in confusion.
"If the prediction is correct, the murderer should have come after this little thing." Du Feiyu explained.
"You mean to cause two murders just because of this little thing?" City Lord Mok was also confused.
"There is a possibility. This little thing is not a mortal thing. Lord City Lord, please do as you say. I should be 60% sure of the previous plan." Du Feiyu smiled and didn't explain too much. It's not that he didn't want to explain, just that
However, the things he came into contact with in the elves were too unbelievable. Even if he told the various statements about the magic envoy, others would mistakenly think that he had water in his brain, so there was no need to explain it in such detail before confirming it.
"I feel something is wrong with this matter." The great elder shook his head.
"But, do you have a better way? If not, why not take the risk and give it a try." Du Feiyu did not defend himself, but shrugged and looked like he was accommodating.
"Okay, as I said, Ninth Elder, you will implement this matter according to my plan." City Lord Mok pondered for a while, then stood up and said. He also felt that the plan mentioned by Du Feiyu was a bit out of tune.
.But after experiencing all the things in the past few days, he has an inexplicable confidence in Du Feiyu.
"I accept my orders." The ninth elder took the bell and quickly retreated...
The efficiency of the City Lord's Mansion is indeed very high. In less than half an hour, a hundred-foot-tall pole has stood at the highest point. There is nothing else on top of the tall pole except a small purple wind chime. As the wind blows,
There was a clanking sound. The nine elders who were originally squatting in various places in the city also returned to the mansion and lurked in some hidden places, waiting for the arrival of the murderer Du Feiyu said.
With City Lord Mok, nine elders, Du Feiyu, Jinghong and others, plus those fully armored troops, the equipment of the entire City Lord's Mansion can be said to be impregnable.
On the first day, there was no movement.
The next day, there was still no movement.
On the third day, there was still no sign of any trouble.
On the fourth day, everyone had lost confidence and there was still no movement.
On the fifth day, Lord Mok found Du Feiyu and went to inquire, but there was still no result.
On the sixth day, some people had already begun to curse, question and even criticize Du Feiyu's various arrangements.
On the seventh day, as the sun set in the west, the scenery of the day passed by again. Even Du Feiyu himself had some doubts. According to his thinking, if the murderer was a demon envoy, he would definitely snatch the wind chime when he saw it, but now on the seventh day, Du Feiyu himself had some doubts.
Days passed, but there was still no sign of any trouble. This situation made him doubt whether his judgment was right or wrong.
"Little friend Feiyu, it seems that your plan is going to come to nothing." City Lord Mo Ke and Du Feiyu stood at the top of the city and sighed.
"At the beginning, I was just guessing. There are still two hours, so just wait." Du Feiyu was noncommittal.
"I have a question. How do you conclude that what the murderer is looking for is this little wind chime? If it's just for it, it doesn't seem like he would commit a massacre, right? And I really don't know about this little thing.
What is its use? Could it be that it is also a rare treasure?" A series of questions popped out of the mouth of Lord Mok, waiting for Du Feiyu's answer.
"If you were the murderer and wanted to find a treasure that has been lost for many years, where would you choose to start?" Du Feiyu asked.
"Since it was something from many years ago, it was naturally... ah? You mean, the reason why the murderer struck at a gathering of antique dealers was to find this little thing? But what is its use?" City Lord Mok seemed to say.
I realized something and asked immediately.
"The purpose of this thing is too incredible, so it's better not to talk about it for now." Du Feiyu shook his head and said.
"Well, since I don't want to say it clearly, I'll just wait for two more hours." Seeing that Du Feiyu didn't want to talk in detail, City Lord Mok had no choice but to give up his plan to get to the bottom of it.
The night wind blew, and the two figures stood side by side on the city tower, looking up at the small wind chime on the hundred-foot-high pole, expecting it to give them the answer.
It was nearly midnight, and Lord Mok finally lost his patience. He waved his sleeves and prepared to go back to his house to rest. But at this moment, Du Feiyu's dark starry eyes suddenly opened, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Chi!" City Lord Mok suddenly stiffened, and suddenly turned around to look at the deep night sky...
In the night sky, fighting energy fluctuations suddenly appeared, and two strange roars also sounded suddenly. Immediately afterwards, several wind-breaking sounds came from far and near, heading straight towards the city lord's mansion.
"We are finally here, Lord City Lord, prepare to attack." Du Feiyu sneered.
"Hmph, since he has revealed himself, there will be no way for him to come back." City Lord Mok also waved his hand with a stern expression, and immediately, the elders hiding in various places in the city also quickly prepared.
"Lord City Lord, please don't be careless, I'm afraid the person who comes here is not good." Du Feiyu stared at the distance and said seriously.
"The current City Lord's Mansion is impregnable, why are you still afraid of him? Little friend..." City Lord Mok originally wanted to say, "Little friend, don't worry," but he swallowed the second half of the sentence because he suddenly remembered that Du Feiyu was not
He is just a young boy in his early twenties. With the strength he has shown, and he is so obsessed with the murderer, the murderer's strength must not be underestimated.
