Thinking of the "detective" who sank into the swamp, the hell puppet master's mind was churning: Although he couldn't see many details in the dim light, when he stood on the treetops, he saw the general movements of the fake detective.
"As long as it is a puppet, there must be something unnatural. These flaws cannot be hidden from the eyes of a professional like me. But the 'detective' just now acted exactly like a real person, so I didn't realize that 'Jiang Xia' was following me.
'It has been revealed... the man in the dark controls the puppet far better than me. Who is he?"
"Could it be that high school detective..."
Thinking of Jiang Xia's face at this time, "Hell's Puppet Master" felt a faint chill in his heart. But soon, his reason made him feel that something was wrong: Jiang Xia's voice just now was too far away, and there was no way he could do it at that distance.
Manipulate the puppet with finesse.
To take a step back, even if Jiang Xia’s voice calling someone just now was recorded...
"I have seen their hands before, and Jiang Xia's fingers have no traces of manipulating silk threads all year round, nor are there any calluses left by practicing magic.
"In addition to the 'detective', there was also that sudden shot. The gunman probably recognized the puppet of 'Mao Lilan' as me. Although this man's eyesight was bad, under that kind of light, he could actually shoot a headshot with one shot...
"
He can control puppets and is good at using guns. Why did a guy like this suddenly appear in this ordinary grove?
"Forget it, let's kill that detective next time I have a chance." "Hell Puppet Master" sighed, "I didn't expect the water in a small hotel to be so deep... If I want the performance to go smoothly, it seems that I
We need to speed up the progress."
…
Deep in the woods.
Gin stepped on the grass and walked to the shore.
Seeing the headless puppet slowly sinking into the mud, he frowned silently.
Let people run away.
He was doing chores in his room just now when he suddenly heard something strange happening outside. When he walked to the window, he saw Uzo jumping down from upstairs and happily chasing towards the woods.
... This kid is bound to be up to no good when he is happy. After hesitating for a moment, Gin followed cautiously, wanting to see what this guy was up to.
Jiang Xia and the thing he was chasing ran very fast. By the time Ginjiu avoided the hidden swamps and entered the woods, he was already some distance away from the two people in front of him.
I followed the general direction and found it all the way. As soon as I arrived, I heard a guy on the tree making some arrogant remarks such as "please disappear", and there was a vague figure flopping in the mud.
Hearing the noise, it was revealed that the person on the tree was a stranger. Taking advantage of the fact that the stranger did not notice him, Gin shot him generously... Unfortunately, the shot was wrong.
The gunfire alerted the target, and the person in the shadow of the treetop evacuated very decisively. It was obvious that the person was very familiar with this forest, so Gin did not take the risk of pursuing him, but stopped and looked at the swamp ahead.
There were two people running into the woods, and one of them was hanging on a tree. He originally thought that the person in the mud might be the young cadre who had not been beaten by society, but just now he seemed to hear Uzo's voice elsewhere.
.
——Uzo is not in the swamp, nor is the person he is chasing. What is that thing that is flopping in the mud?
Before Gin could examine the bubbling mud to find out what was going on, suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps coming from behind.
He immediately and calmly pulled the trigger, took a step back behind the tree, and pointed the muzzle of the gun in the direction of the sound.
A few seconds later, a figure walked out of the forest in a good mood and raised his hand to say hello.
"..." Gin looked at this familiar guy, "What happened just now?"
Jiang Xia raised a hand and snapped her fingers in front of his eyes. With a crisp sound, a pure white rose appeared out of thin air in his palm.
"That's it." Jiang Xia took back his hand and looked at the flower he had just conjured, "He wanted to invite me to see a magic show, and I reciprocated with courtesy - so what, it's not bad."
As he spoke, he threw the white rose to the bubbling place in the swamp.
The white flowers fell to the ground, and the soil beneath them suddenly collapsed, and large white roses appeared in a spurt, as if the soil had been turned into flowers by some magic. And soon, those blooming white flowers were shattered bit by bit.
In the air, the hollows in the swamp were quickly refilled with mud pouring in from all around.
Gin: "..."
He was so close, but he couldn't see how the magic was done.
But when he remembered that Uzuo had a former circus member under his command who he stole from another troupe leader... everything suddenly seemed to make sense.
Gin: "..." This kid is really good at what he does, and the magic he learned casually can actually reach this level... To maintain such a life in the organization, Jiang Xia Longping has made a small contribution.
On the opposite side, Jiang Xia retracted his gaze from the swamp and started talking about the "Hell Puppet Master" again. He pointed to the distance and exclaimed: "Did you see it? This time is different from before - he actually knows how to advance in advance."
Knife the detective."
"..." Gin didn't even need to look at his expression to hear the strong interest in this guy's words.
This made him hesitate about his decision to "find the puppet master of hell and shoot him to completely solve the hidden danger."
——Now that the nearby roads have collapsed, the people trapped in this "Blizzard Villa" are very bored. It is rare that there is something that can help Uzo dissipate his excess enthusiasm...
And judging from the situation just now, Uzo seemed to be able to deal with that opponent with ease.
Thinking of this, Gin was too lazy to take care of it: silencing him was a troublesome thing, let alone a smart person who was already vigilant. Instead of losing time and rushing around, and then attracting Uzo's complaints
, it is better to let this kid solve those boring troubles by himself, so that he can save himself two things at once.
Thinking of this, he heard the voices in the distance shouting "Jiang Xia" while searching around in the woods. Gin put away his thoughts, said "take care of it", turned around and walked into the woods.
Jiang Xia waved his hand at his back and watched him go away. Then he was in a good mood and put away the two big balls of murderous aura that had just been gathered out.
"Jiang Xia!"
As soon as they finished packing, several people ran over from a distance - it was Maya Hashimoto and the team he knocked out of the room.
Jiang Xia calmed down the happiness on her face, maintained the seriousness and calmness that a detective should have at this time, and walked over quickly.
…
Brightly lit hotel lobby.
"The 'Puppet Master of Hell' just led you into the woods?"
The question came from the magicians who had come over at some unknown time - the room of the members of the magic troupe was not far from a few high school students. Just now, Maya Hashimoto yelled, shaking people, and called them out of the room.
