Chapter 55: I'm Stupid, Salted Fish Ai ~ Ask for a Monthly Pass~)
Edmond, who was leaning on the sofa, slid down unconsciously, making his whole body assume a loose posture.
If there is anything that makes Edmund happiest after becoming the supervisor of Angcheng, it must be this sofa chair that is not only wide but also very soft.
No matter how sad you are, as long as you lie down in this large sofa chair, your sadness will be reduced by half.
As for the remaining half?
Edmund squinted his eyes and kept humming.
"Lawrence's character determines that he will not let go of my enemy easily, but the caution in his heart makes him not choose to take revenge immediately when he faced me with Hydra and Night Owl Court. He will definitely
A multi-faceted exploration.”
"Therefore, he chose to cooperate with the Temple."
"The 'Temple' has a grudge against Sir Jason, and the two sides almost hit it off."
"Furthermore, losing the hatred of the 'Sword Master', the 'Temple' must fight back and continue to show its strength! Therefore, the three special bases of the 'Shelter' were attacked by the 'Temple', and the 'Abnormal' was taken away
Let’s go, and these ‘abnormalities’ will definitely appear in Ang City, along with the troops from the ‘Temple’!”
"And Lawrence will be among them!"
"or……"
"Will he enter early?"
Edmund thought.
Then, he rubbed his eyebrows and closed his squinted eyes completely.
“It’s still not safe enough!”
"Although he is cooperating with the 'Temple,' how can Lawrence ensure his victory?"
"You have to know that even the 'Sword Master' can't do it when facing the 'Night Owl Court'."
"therefore……"
"He still has a backup plan in Angcheng!"
Thinking of this, Edmond opened his eyes and raised his hand to get the communicator. However, due to his half-lying position, his arms could not reach the communicator on the desk.
But, he didn't want to sit up and take it yet.
How can you destroy the comfortable posture at this moment?
Edmon raised his foot and hooked it on the communicator.
Little by little, he hooked the communicator to the edge of the table, and then increased his strength.
Snap!
The communicator landed firmly on his belly, which had some fat on it, and made a slight crunching sound.
Edmund smiled, and after picking up the communicator with satisfaction, his other leg also rested on the table.
His feet were raised higher, which allowed his body to be completely integrated into the sofa chair. He placed his elbows on both sides of his body and put the communicator in front of him. After hastily editing a message, Edmonton put his hands on
As soon as he let go, the communicator fell aside, and he closed his eyes.
"It's so troublesome."
With such a sigh, Edmund fell asleep in a daze.
When Esther came to Edmund's office, Edmund had been asleep for more than half an hour.
When Esther opened the door and walked in, Edmond opened his eyes, but his posture did not change much.
"Lawrence still has a backup plan in Ang City. It is most likely some kind of 'abnormality' that can cause great riots or destroy the entire city."
"He has an 'abnormality' similar to a hat that can change his appearance and take on other people's identities."
"This time he relied on this 'abnormality' to escape."
"Similarly, Angcheng's hidden back-up plan is also very likely to be completed by relying on this 'abnormality'."
Having said this, Edmund took a deep breath.
He started to sit up.
Relaxation is an attitude towards life, but indulgence is not.
He will seize the time to rest, but when faced with serious matters, Edmond will still be serious.
even though……
Reluctantly.
"We need to search Ang City thoroughly."
"It is impossible for the 'Shelter' alone to accomplish this. Lawrence is also very familiar with our style of doing things and will definitely take action against us. Therefore, I hope to focus on the 'Holy Snake Society'."
"Of course, it would be very difficult to request the 'Holy Snake Society' directly."
"So, we need information that there is an intelligent, humanoid 'anomaly' hiding in the city."
Edmond said.
It is different from 'shelter' and 'temple'.
The 'Holy Snake Society' is the most tolerant organization towards 'abnormalities'.
Especially when it comes to humanoids and 'abnormalities' that possess intelligence and can communicate, they burst out with great enthusiasm.
Because they believe that communicating with such 'abnormalities' is the real evolution.
Edmon was unconvinced about this.
But he knew it could be exploited.
Use the 'Holy Snake Society' to find Lawrence's hidden backhand in Ang City.
"Well, I will write a report after considering it."
"Right!"
"We can get people from Hydra to join in."
"Maybe they can't face Lawrence directly, but they can find out the secrets of the 'Temple' one by one. I believe this is not a difficult thing."
"After all, they were all exposed."
Esther nodded seriously.
Then, Esther looked a little more relaxed and said.
His father's return not only made him feel at ease, but the exposed secrets of the 'Temple' were an unexpected surprise.
"'Hydra'?"
"Can they do it?"
Edmond was stunned.
Isn’t that the ‘matryoshka’ organization they created?
When will there be real power of action?
"certainly."
“Ms. Alas’ parents and maternal grandfather left a ‘huge inheritance’ for Ms. Alas!”
With that said, Esther started to explain.
As Edmon listened to Esther's explanation, the surprise in his eyes gradually disappeared and turned into surprise.
In his opinion, this is normal.
He knows how powerful Alas is.
How could such a powerful Alas, parents, and grandfather be simple figures?
How could it be possible to leave Alas alone in Ang City?
There must be many arrangements.
The appearance of these people is normal.
"If that's the case... we can do more."
Edmund said thoughtfully.
"Are you talking about the old suspicion formation?"
Esther immediately guessed something.
"right!"
"Through these secrets, we deliver true and false news to the 'Temple'. Although the final result will not change, it will consume more manpower for them to confirm, and it will also delay them more time.
, and this can buy more time for the 'Holy Snake Society' to find the 'anomaly'!"
"And, guess what will happen if we can find one or two very important secrets and let them send the news that 'we were betrayed by Lawrence' back to the 'Temple'?"
"If you add that 'Lawrence gave several true information just to deceive the trust of the 'Temple', what will happen next?"
"What would happen if we were more specific and described, 'Lawrence is here to explore the secrets of the 'Temple' and the 'Legion of Faceless Men'?"
Edmund said and looked at Esther.
The cooperation between Lawrence and the Temple was a hasty and helpless move.
One can imagine how much trust both parties have.
There is nothing wrong with false news once or twice, but if it occurs too often, it will naturally lead to qualitative changes.
Even, to say the least, these fake news are useless.
The 'Temple' still chooses to believe in Lawrence.
But what about Lawrence?
Where is Lawrence, who is alone and being hunted by the "Asylum" law enforcement team?
What will he do?
Edmund guessed roughly.
Esther also guessed a few things through Edmon's detailed description of Lawrence.
The next moment, the two looked at each other and smiled.
Esther turned and walked towards her office.
He needs to think carefully about the report to the 'Holy Snake Society'.
Those people are not easy to fool.
By the way, there is also my reimbursement!
Cars, renting houses, etc. are all huge expenses, and he must report them. Although he has already received one from the 'Shelter' before, the share from the 'Holy Snake Society' is also required.
However, when she opened the door, Esther thought of her father's instructions to her.
"Senior Edmund, my father wants to see you."
Esther said.
Father?
Edmund was stunned for a moment, and then, as if instinctively, he said: "Your disappeared father is back?"
"He's back."
Esther answered with a smile on her face.
Seeing this smile, Edmon could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Fortunately nothing shocking happened.
"Okay, I get it"
"I'll be there on time tonight."
Edmund nodded and gave his assurance.
And just before Edmund nodded his assurance, when he asked the words, Emma, who had already opened her eyes, suddenly twitched again, and fell asleep again.
"Emma, Emma."
"What's wrong with you, Emma?"
"Doctor, how is Emma?"
Originally, when Emma opened her eyes, Danvers and Patsy were smiling.
But as Emma fell unconscious again, the two of them immediately exclaimed.
In fact, the doctor was right next to the bed.
The doctor, who had just looked happy and thought that he had not made a mistake in judgment but was just slightly delayed, felt panicked again.
Why?
Shouldn't it?
All indices are normal!
Moreover, his consciousness has just awakened!
Why did he suddenly fall into coma again?
One question after another appeared in the doctor's mind, but he forced himself to calm down and said: "This is a normal stress reaction. Please stay calm and quiet, ladies."
"Otherwise this will affect Miss Emma."
"If you can, please wait next door."
Faced with the doctor's words, Danvers and Patsy believed them, and they got up and walked out.
But the two of them didn't see it. The moment the door closed, the doctor knelt beside Emma's bed and began to pray in a low voice.
Such prayers continued for a long time until Kratos and Logan returned.
As soon as the two children came back, they rushed here to check on Emma's condition.
Seeing that Emma didn't wake up, the two of them were a little disappointed, but they still chose to accompany Emma.
Especially Logan, who just moved a small stool and sat beside Emma's bed.
