That night, when Gu He learned the news, the fish pond was still busy.
Lao Fan said coldly that "mostly it's the bank's dog eating dog", Sakai Shukichi slapped the bar angrily, and Sakai Kao was angry and worried. They had been street rats and knew what it meant just for Red Rain House to distribute a winter coat.
Star Child and other children were even more exclaimed. Many of their street friends had moved into the Red Rain House. Mike originally wanted to go there to help people with thermos cups, but if they were burned to death, they would be gone.
Everyone was unhappy about this incident, and the atmosphere in the fish pond was gloomy.
Lorna wasn't here, otherwise she would have been scolded.
Gu He didn't know where she went.
Last night he accompanied her wandering aimlessly on the streets, and it wasn't until midnight that Lorna suddenly wanted to go back to Itada's apartment.
The thing about that bastard Roden Ludd is true, but there are still many doubts about Pandora's statement. Lorna wants to find out first before deciding how to deal with this person and face this matter.
Now, Pandora was sent to a small room in Licai's basement to be imprisoned.
Naturally, this was with Miss Caiyin's permission, and they told Miss Caiyin everything.
First of all, Lorna trusted the other party, and secondly, she knew that the other party was well-informed and could help her figure out the truth. Kumiko Ayane was extremely surprised when she found out. She pondered for a while and then said that she would only keep the person for ten days and let Lorna solve it as soon as possible.
As for Gu He's problem, there was an error in the file before and it was automatically copied and opened.
He was still slightly harshly reprimanded by Miss Caiyin, but he should have said it at that time, don't let it happen again.
After Pandora was locked up, Lorna left and went to investigate and find out the authenticity of Pandora's statement - there would always be traces of her real name and the place where she used to be a doll.
When leaving, Gu He persuaded Lorna not to be impulsive and desperate, and to wait for news from Miss Caiyin.
In fact, he was waiting for news from him. He could use the goose to find out if there was the person Pandora was talking about.
Fortunately, Lorna agreed. She didn't want to die now. Why, her life was just getting better.
It's a mess, but it's quite exciting.
Now that it is approaching early morning, the fish pond that does not do late-night business is gradually becoming deserted, and Lao Fan has also gone to Licai.
"Elizabeth is probably still busy, so it's not appropriate to contact her now..."
Gu He sat on the sofa and looked thoughtfully at "Contact: Goose" in the contact list on the console.
In addition to the basic contact function, there is also the ability for the other party to upload when contacted, but the number of times is still 0; he found that in addition to experience data packages, program installation packages are also available for sharing with contacts, and there is... holy water energy.
This was a change that he noticed after playing around with it. The energy of holy water is inherently information-based.
It is usually stored in the Holy Grail program, and now there is 37% holy water energy in the cup. It increased by 2% last night. For some reason, he looked at Lorna on the street and thought she was beautiful, so it increased by 2%.
These data can also be shared with Goose or Ghost Girl.
"What's the use of that?" Gu He thought, the energy of the holy water can be used in the healing state to heal skin wounds, and the energy of the holy water can be used in the offensive and defensive states to strengthen the opponent's program. That's probably it.
There is also a primary function "neurotherapy". He has not tried this thing yet, but it also uses holy water energy.
If you pass the holy water to the goose, it should put her in a good mood and increase the effectiveness of her program in a short time.
If you pass the holy water to the ghost girl...
Wouldn't it be great fun? The opponent is a natural counter-doll, a dead end.
What will happen if you fill the ghost girl with living water? Will it be wasted? Or what?
It would be a waste. Last time I only contacted that guy for less than five minutes, he was eroded by 2% of the holy water.
Gu He thought about it and decided to let it go first, but he was really worried about the Hongyu House.
That was not only about Yu Goose, but also about himself. He had finally found a place to refresh the energy of the holy water. If it was all burned, and it was too burned to be rebuilt, wouldn't it be a slap in the foot?
"I really don't know if some bastard did it."
The more Gu He thought about it, the more he felt aggrieved. Perhaps his personality integrity was really low and he wanted to take care of this matter.
I originally wanted to go to the dungeon to see Sophia later, but it's been two days since I came back, and I didn't go back after seeing her that night.
But Sophia's task priority is certainly not as high as Elizabeth's.
At the moment, Gu He postponed the contact time, grabbed a thermos cup, put on a jacket, put on sunglasses, and walked outside.
The Wrestling Gang's warehouse is a bit far away from the Licai Fish Pond area, and it takes a long time to walk there.
After walking out of the alley, Gu He saw that in front of the Licai Club, the neon street was still busy, and the nightlife started in the early morning. However, Jane, who advocated a low-tech and healthy life, was already pushing her bicycle to leave.
"Jane!" He walked over quickly, "Something happened at Hongyu House. I'm going to check it out. Lend me your bicycle first. You can walk to the hotel. You can also stay at my place in Bantian Apartment for one night."
"Get in the car, I'll go take a look too." Jian Yi heard the idea.
Gu He just didn't want her to go. If she took the opportunity to talk about low-tech ideas at an inappropriate time, wouldn't that be a mess?
"What are you going for?" He almost grabbed her bicycle, turned over and rode on it, pedaling wildly and drove away, "You can't stay up late in a low-tech life. Only people who are obsessed with electronic products will be confused day and night.
"
"Hey!" Jane shouted a few times from behind, but she didn't catch up after all. She thought about it and went to the capsule hotel.
Indeed, only people who are addicted to information and electronics will stay up late...
Gu He rode his bicycle through many large and small streets. When he approached the warehouse, he smelled a burning smell in the air. The closer he got, the stronger and more pungent the burning smell became.
I don’t know if I was pedaling too hard or too fast, but this old and worn-out bicycle that had been welded many times was wobbling and almost cracked.
He got out of the car and pushed away. Not long after, he saw a group of uniformed policemen from the Metropolitan Police Department forming a blockade at the intersection. Several fire trucks were still parked on the roadside. The fire had already been put out.
"This place is temporarily closed and no one is allowed to enter." A policeman said sternly to him, telling him to leave.
Gu He had no choice but to leave, but when he saw Judy Dickinson patrolling there, he shouted: "Judy!"
Judy Dickinson heard the sound and looked around, and recognized that he was a handsome angel, so she informed Miss Sterling on the walkie-talkie. After receiving a reply, she asked the police to put him in.
With Judy leading the way, Gu He pushed the cart and approached the Hongyu House. Two days ago, the place was full of laughter and vitality.
However, now, there are traces of scorch everywhere in several warehouses, and the air is filled with an unpleasant, pungent, and difficult-to-dissipate smell. It usually rains in Kabukicho, but tonight there is no rain. The night wind will slowly blow the place.
Clean.
The crowds who were fighting the fire and watching the excitement had dispersed, and only some Hongyu personnel and police personnel were still walking around.
Judy said that the children first went to the Wrestling Gang's warehouse to rest and spend the night, but many children ran away on their own. Some were really scared, and some thought it was dangerous. They would probably have to wait a few days to see if nothing happened before they dared to come back.
Elizabeth was standing on the road outside the main warehouse looking at it, her orange windbreaker rustling in the night wind.
"Angel." When she saw him pushing the cart, she put on a forced smile, "Everything has been checked, and there are no casualties. This is the best result. The supply warehouse was all burned down, and some money was lost.
But it’s just money.”
As Gu He listened, he felt more and more that someone had set the fire deliberately.
He asked about safety issues two days ago. This is something he values very personally, regarding fire protection, earthquakes, escapes, food safety, etc. The Red Rain House team has taken it into consideration, so there were no casualties tonight.
The only thing that is difficult to put out a fire is the material warehouse. Why did the fire break out there?
"Did the surveillance capture anything?" Gu He asked.
It is not easy to install surveillance cameras here, because if you want to go to the wrestling gang, you will pass by the Red Rain House. Street dogs are not allowed to install surveillance cameras, but there are still surveillance cameras inside the material warehouse.
"I didn't capture anything." Elizabeth shook her head, "If someone set the fire, there should be supernatural forces involved."
If a gang commits a crime and there is a painter inside, making a still picture will make the surveillance useless.
Today, Judy and others in her security team followed her to the Lake Eden area. The main responsibility of these people sent by the bank was to keep her safe, not the Red Rain House or the investigation team. They were only willing to follow her.
However, the security of Red Rain House is not particularly weak, but its experience and ability in various aspects are poor...
"People from the Mobile Task Force of the Secret Bureau are investigating." Elizabeth said, and Gu He also saw a small group of people wearing rainproof windbreakers and not wearing any firearms, but they looked majestic.
This team is called "Lightning", and they were previously asked by her to investigate the Muddy Pond organ truck incident.
Captain Lin Chen is an inspector, wearing a black trench coat, with some staggered scars on his tough Chinese character face.
At this time, Lin Chen came over with a few people. Another man with glasses was pressing his forehead in pain. Lin Chen glanced at Gu He a few more times and then reported: "Miss Sterling, our team just inspected
Already."
Traceability, interrogation, and touch inspection are all routine investigative capabilities of Secret Bureau personnel.
"How is it?" Elizabeth asked. In her previous vision of herself, she was such a person.
"The information is very confusing." Lin Chen said, "Let him speak for himself."
The team member who was in charge of tracing just now was named Bai Liyan. He pressed his sore forehead, his face still calm, "I didn't see much, but I can confirm that it was arson. A large group of people sneaked in secretly, and at least they used assassins' weapons."
Stealth, painter’s still image.”
Someone set a fire. Elizabeth's face suddenly darkened, and the anger in her blue eyes almost burst out.
She may know who is behind it, and that may not necessarily be the mastermind, but at least she will be implicated.
"I also saw the single molecular line of the meat cutter." Bai Liyan said in a low voice.
Gu He was shocked when he heard this. What the hell, Yakuza was involved?
Elizabeth has not lost her mind. Yakuza is not the same as before. There are traitors. In the 30 million boxing match in the boxing area, there were also meat cutters participating, and they still worked for Harafuji Yosuke.
Yosuke Harafuji…
Was it Yakuza who did it? Let’s start a quarrel, but if we can’t find out clearly, there will be gaps.
Not just what she thinks, but also what Yakuza thinks she will think.
"I want to go back and see for myself." Elizabeth had already made this decision. She was in overdrive and could see more.
This is what the Red Rain Investigation Team does in the first place, not to mention that the victim is the Red Rain House.
These street rat children are some people's desertions, but they are not hers, and they are definitely not hers.
"Miss Sterling, be careful." Lin Chen said solemnly, "This may be an ambush for your personality."
At the same time, Judy stood aside and listened silently, the second move on the chessboard.
There are risks for Miss Sterling to conduct retrospection, but if she does not conduct retrospection, this knot will affect her forever.
Even if the Red Rain House is re-established, if it is still here, then Miss Sterling will stay here every day and walk here, thinking about what the truth is every moment, and what can I see if I look back.
…
Such thoughts, although they won't drive a person crazy, are enough to make a heroic extraordinary person become trapped in a cocoon.
The so-called ace hero is someone who knows what cannot be done but does it.
