After the people from the Investigation Department left, Kumu finally breathed a sigh of relief. The change of the person he lied to would also increase the burden on his heart.
"I wonder if the Investigation Bureau will guess that I'm lying."
After calming down, Kumu returned to the house and prepared to make plans for possible situations that may arise in the future.
.....................
Two or three days later, the housekeeper from the country came to the house owner's door.
After a short master-servant etiquette, the housekeeper entered Hao Qinghe's room.
"How's it going this time?" Hao Qinghe had a straight face as usual this time, without the expectations he had the first time. Now the mysterious man may be a threat to the Hall of Light.
The steward of the country lowered his head and said that he had gained nothing. He asked all the contestants and most of them had alibis. Either they had the ability to act but no time to act, or they had the time to act but did not have the corresponding strength. Even for
Some contestants used special power detection equipment to test their abilities to see if they were lying. However, the abilities displayed by the equipment were not different from what they said, and everything was reasonable.
The same cameras around the track can be found by every competitor, and there are no features like those of the mysterious person that cannot be observed by the camera.
"What happened to the girl who was helped by the mysterious man?"
"It's very simple to find out about her interpersonal relationships, but they are just people we have met a few times. We found one person among them." After saying that, the housekeeper from the country took out the photo of the dead tree and handed it to Hao Qinghe, "This young man has met a few times.
The most familiar one among them is that he has time to act but has no ability to act. According to his statement, he was accidentally injured by a mysterious person in the maze and fell unconscious in the maze. When he woke up later, he saw that the game was hopeless.
Ran out of the maze."
Hao Qinghe looked at the young man in the photo and vaguely felt that there must be some connection between the young man and the mysterious man.
Zi Guo said again, "The time when the young man left the maze is known, but the exact time when the mysterious man entered and exited the maze cannot be determined and compared, but it should be roughly the same. However, the instrument detected that the young man did not have any abilities.
"At the end, the housekeeper from the country told Hao Qinghe the reason why the dead wood was removed.
Hao Qinghe has not checked the equipment for detecting supernatural powers for a long time, and now he has questioned the accuracy of the equipment.
"Could the instrument be damaged or malfunctioning?"
Hao Qinghe said to his country steward with a questioning attitude.
The housekeeper from the country is very sure that those instruments are the latest products and have never made mistakes. Even if they are damaged, the instruments will not show that the examiner is incompetent, unless the examiner is incompetent in the first place.
Seeing the assurance given to him by his country's housekeeper, Hao Qinghe could only deny his thoughts.
The housekeeper told Hao Qinghe that the most likely situation now is that the mysterious person has some relationship with someone present, and he does not rule out the possibility that it is a simple and powerful person having fun at the event.
Hao Qinghe acquiesced to his country's housekeeper's idea, "Is Zhengwen feeling better? Let's call him over."
"Better, yes."
The housekeeper bowed and left Hao Qinghe's room.
Hao Qinghe can only place his hope on the conversation between the mysterious man and his son.
After a while, Zhengwen came to Hao Qinghe's room.
"Father."
Zheng Wen looked obedient. He must listen to what the man in front of him said.
"Did father come to me to find out something about the mysterious man?"
Zhengwen guessed the purpose of his father's question about him. This was the only thing he might be interested in now besides making himself stronger.
"That's right."
Hao Qinghe asked Zhengwen to tell everything the mysterious man said at that time, so as to judge the mysterious man's attitude.
The first sentence of the following text shocked Hao Qinghe.
"The reason why the mysterious man gave up the first place to me is because it will be very troublesome for the Hall of Light to find him later."
The mysterious man only regards the investigation of the Hall of Light as a troublesome matter, which shows that the mysterious man is not afraid of the Hall of Light at all.
The main text tells Hao Qinghe that a large part of the reason why the mysterious man competes with him is for fun.
This can be seen from the fact that the mysterious man did not use all his strength and even talked to himself for so long after the game.
At this point, the image of the mysterious man in Hao Qinghe's mind has turned into a super strong person who occasionally attends events, so even if someone among the participants has a different relationship with him, they will not easily tell them.
(“Did you really just happen to show up at the event?”)
Hao Qinghe still had doubts in his mind, and he couldn't convince himself that the mysterious man appeared by chance.
Hao Qinghe didn't know that the possibility of the mysterious man's appearance was indeed a coincidence. Even if he did not appear at the event in the Hall of Light that day, he would appear elsewhere.
"Text, who do you think the mysterious person will be."
Hao Qinghe asked his son.
The text tells his father that he is too stupid to think of the origin of the mysterious man.
Hao Qinghe, who wanted to find a breakthrough from the text, finally had no choice. After getting the clues, he could only find the person among the participants who was related to the mysterious person or wait for the mysterious person to appear again.
.....................
"Brother, is your injury feeling better?"
A beautiful girl with a pure and childish appearance applied medicine to the man in front of her.
The man was the one who was beaten up by the mysterious man at that time.
"pain."
My sister was not a professional doctor, so she didn't know the right measure, causing the man to cry out in pain.
Hearing her brother cry out in pain, her sister quickly reduced the strength in her hands.
"Why."
After that, the man sighed.
Something went wrong at the critical moment, and the most damning thing is that we don't even know who the mysterious person is.
If the younger sister knows the identity of the mysterious man, the older brother will not be able to untie his knot.
"Brother, he asked you to think carefully about why he hit you."
The sister's words had no effect but only aggravated the brother's sad thoughts.
"If I had thought of who it was, I wouldn't be so troubled."
After listening to her brother's words, my sister retorted in a low voice, "It's not because you provoke so many people."
The brother who heard a little bit of information looked at his sister angrily, and the sister closed her mouth and didn't know what to say.
The man was still applying ointment when a man came from not far away.
"Shaohong, you were beaten by someone else."
The man who walked over showed Shaohong a mean expression.
(Qiu Shaohong: Superpower - the power of nature, ice.)
"You are so stupid that you let Shaoqian suffer with you. Really, if you still want to stand up, you don't care about your moral character. You are just a dog who has been separated from the family."
The visitor's words were harsh. If Shao Qian hadn't been holding Shao Hong's arm, Shao Hong would have rushed up and beat the visitor violently.
The reason why Shaoqian did this was because her brother was no match for the comer.
"Brother, please bear with me."
Shaoqian whispered to her brother.
Shaohong had no choice but to bear the ridicule from those who came.
"You are still so cowardly. Don't put on such a scary expression. Show it to someone. Believe it or not, it's okay if I beat you to death here." The visitor still shouted.
Shaohong's eyes widened with anger and his rational mind was about to collapse.
"What are you doing."
A woman who could silence the visitor immediately with just her voice came over.
The woman has flaming red hair, heavy makeup on her face, and wears a high-cut red dress. She has a graceful figure, with bulges where they should be, and she also deliberately exposes her seductive white legs.
When it comes out, it feels very coquettish.
The visitor immediately changed his words when he saw the woman, "Sister Xia, why are you here?"
The woman who came was immediately greeted with a smile and was called Sister Xia.
(Gao Xia: The eldest sister of the owner of Nature Garden.)
"Let me see if you are looking for trouble."
The visitor quickly nodded and bowed, "No, no, I'll leave right now."
After saying that, the person who just came immediately rolled away and crawled away.
After the troublemaker left, Gao Xia asked about Shaohong's situation.
Shaohong didn't give Gao Xia a good look and remained silent.
Gao Xia was not angry when he saw this, and still smiled at Shaohong, "Okay, no matter what you think, I am doing it for the Garden of Nature. I do not exclude people from the separated families. As long as we unite as one, we can defeat the other three major families."
It’s not something you can easily capture.”
Shaohong looked at Gao Xia with an expression that meant one eye was small and the other was big, completely seeing through her lies.
"Are you doing it for the garden of nature or for the treasure of our parents?"
Shaohong didn't give any face, and directly revealed Gao Xia's purpose. Upon seeing this, Shao Qian quickly took Gao Xia's hand, pretending to be embarrassed and apologetic.
"I'm sorry, Sister Xia, don't take it to heart what my brother is saying out of anger."
Shaoqian needs to make a good apology to Gao Xia. Gao Xia is a member of the master's family and the most powerful eldest sister. She is an existence that the two brothers and sisters cannot afford to offend at all.
Gao Xia stretched out his green and graceful hand and touched Shaoqian's head. There was no trace of anger on his face and he said kindly, "I know that one day your brother will understand me. Then I will leave first if I have something else to do."
Gao Xia left here using the excuse of being busy.
As soon as Gao Xia left, Shao Qian educated her brother, "I know Sister Xia may be uneasy and kind, but you can't say that, brother. If Sister Xia really does anything to us two, we can't say anything.
Don't do this next time, they are laughing at us. We should get used to it."
As Shaoqian said this, Shaohong became angry, "How can I get used to it!" This is something Shaohong will never compromise on.
