Chapter 824 Chapter 19: Let’s start our second round
At this moment, in an unknown corner somewhere, an abandoned warehouse stands quietly in the night.
This place used to be a bustling logistics center, but now only traces of time and loneliness remain.
The door of the warehouse was closed and the windows were boarded up, as if isolating it from all the noise from the outside world.
However, in this seemingly dead space, there is an unusual vitality.
There was a light smile on the girl's lips and her eyes were shining with excitement.
Her steps were light and rhythmic, as if she was dancing a waltz that belonged only to her.
Her dance steps moved lightly on the cement floor of the warehouse, and each step seemed so natural and graceful.
The air in the warehouse was filled with a musty and damp smell, but this didn't seem to affect the girl's mood.
She seemed completely immersed in her own world, and everything around her became insignificant. She hummed a light tune, the melody simple and bright, as if it could dispel all the haze.
The melodious waltz music echoed in the warehouse, forming a sharp contrast with the environment.
The melody of the music seemed to jump in the air, blending perfectly with the girl's dance steps.
Although there was no light in the warehouse, the girl's dancing seemed to light up the space, making it full of vitality.
The girl's dance suddenly stopped, her eyes drawn to a short message on an old computer screen in the corner of the warehouse.
The words on the screen were simple and direct, but enough to make her heart beat faster.
Her eyes sparkled brighter and the smile on her face grew even wider.
Our little wolf has successfully entered the sheepfold, ma'am, it's a pleasure to work with you.
“What a wonderful night~”
The girl stopped dancing, then walked gracefully to the computer and sent a clinking glasses emoji to the person on the other end of the message.
"It's a pleasure to work with you, Ms. Mayer~"
Then she picked up the photo next to the computer.
"...My dear Mr. Detective, I really...can't wait to meet you."
She gently held the photo in her arms, a hint of intoxication in her eyes.
"Then... let's make our reunion even more grand... Mr. Detective."
The girl snapped her fingers, and the lights in the warehouse slowly lit up. Then every corner of the warehouse was covered with photos, and the people in the photos were all the same.
It’s all Li Muhan.
...
...
Li Muhan and others are currently searching the Intelligence Department for clues about Roderick Trading Company.
The gift given to him by the enemy was quite special, but he didn't like it.
"Our enemies love to manipulate people's thinking."
Li Muhan said with a smile.
He looked at the staff member who was sorting files, then turned to Lin Ziyu and said, "What's wrong? You look so gloomy. Are you so unhappy about being transferred to work here?"
"Captain... aren't you angry at all? You were almost framed."
"It was my own carelessness. It seems I'm still far behind Minister Qu Ran."
"...You're a hero, you've saved the world so many times, but why, just for such a small thing, they would...lock you up? I can't understand."
"Zi Yu, you kid..." Li Muhan sighed, then looked at Lin Zi Yu and said, "The biggest difference between us and those beasts is that we abide by the rules. We have our bottom line. Sometimes this bottom line makes you feel very aggrieved and helpless, but the more powerful a person is, the more they have to bear this feeling."
"I don't understand. Maybe it's because I've always longed for this kind of power. If I had this kind of power... I would kill all the bad guys and not let any of them go."
"I understand." Li Muhan crossed his arms over his chest and nodded with a smile. "I've been addicted to cool novels for a while, and I share the same idea as you. Heaven created all things to nourish the people, but the people have no good deeds to repay Heaven. Kill kill kill kill kill kill kill!"
"I'm not kidding! With your strength! Who can stop you? Why are you..."
"At first, you might kill someone who has a grudge against you, but the next time, you'll kill someone if they have an argument with you, and the next time, you'll kill someone if they accidentally step on your foot. In the end, you'll kill anything you don't like. This is a very scary switch, Ziyu."
"......" Lin Ziyu lowered his head and continued to operate the computer.
"I definitely don't mean to teach you a lesson, Ziyu, but power...is not something that is so easy to use...because we are not bad people."
"But Director Lin clearly said...if you have enough power, you can do whatever you want..." Lin Ziyu was still a little unconvinced.
"Yes." Li Muhan lit a cigarette and took a puff.
"So what I want to do now is to maintain this order, and I have the power to do so."
"Alas...people like you...I really don't know what to say. If you were really the King of the Great West, these people would never dare to mess with you."
"Hahahaha, if I were the King of the Great West, I would have chopped you to death long ago. How many times have you been my light bulb?!"
Just as the two were arguing, a staff member turned around and shouted, "Chief! The field department has discovered that Roderick's shipping container was found in an abandoned logistics transport station on the outskirts of Tianhai City!"
"Oh? What's going on here?" Li Muhan personally began to direct the field department.
"Has the Realm Edict been set up?"
[Report, the setup has been completed. Team A has entered the reconnaissance and found no ambush.]
"Okay, let's go in and see what surprises Miss Mayer has left for us."
As the recorder and drone footage progressed, the field team quickly completed a comprehensive survey of the entire logistics station.
There was nothing suspicious here except a container from Roderick Trading Company.
"Wait here, the engineering troops and the execution troops will be here soon." Li Muhan commanded, then turned around and looked at Lin Ziyu.
"Zi Yu, I just mentioned... this guy likes to guide people's thinking. Do you feel a sense of familiarity...?"
"Guidance trap."
Lin Ziyu frowned. This was the word he had just thought of.
"Is it Leia?"
"Not really. Rhea is in England looking for a bionic body for Sherlock. I can monitor her location."
"That's not Leia... Could it be..."
"Forehead......"
Li Muhan and Lin Ziyu both thought of another person, but that person was even more unlikely.
He saw with his own eyes that she was taken away by those eyes...
But after eliminating all the impossible, the only truth that remains, no matter how implausible, is the truth.
[Section Chief Li! There's something wrong with this container!]
In the picture, all the team members noticed that the container was shaking and then making a dripping sound.
"Everyone evacuate, evacuate immediately."
Li Muhan made a prompt decision and gave the order.
But it's too late.
After a loud rumbling sound, the container changed.
But it wasn't an explosion.
It unfolded slowly, and then a burst of light amusement park music sounded.
Through the screen, everyone looked at this scene in surprise.
A trace of cold sweat broke out on Lin Ziyu's forehead.
"...Oh, this surprise... is quite big."
The corners of Li Muhan's mouth also twitched.
At this moment, there is a holographic projector in the container, and the image projected by the projector is a girl in a dress.
And that girl was none other than someone else.
It was Moriarty.
My dear detective, long time no see~
