Chapter 376 Linnaeus's Conjecture shuhaige.net



Night fell, and she wondered, "Could it be a coincidence?"

"A total of 157 people were killed, including 150 low-level superhumans and the remaining seven mid-level superhumans, all of whom were members of the International Superhuman Association." Lin Nai shrugged: "If this is a coincidence, it's too much of a coincidence."

Night pondered, "It seems so..."

Linnaeus said, "If I were to go a step further with my guess... I would guess that of the 157 people who were killed, the other 150 were actually a decoy, just to cover up their true purpose."

"A cover story?"

"If we only kill those seven members of the Superhuman Association, then the intention will be too obvious."

"Why would they do that?" Nightfall asked in surprise. "Do these werewolves have a grudge against your human race's International Association of Extraordinary Beings?"

Linnaeus: Maybe, I don't know.

"..." Ye Wan'er was silent for a while, pursed her lips, and looked at Lin Nai again.

Lin Nai saw the look in Ye Wan'er's eyes: "What's wrong? Is there a problem with my makeup?"

"No...no." Ye Wan'er slowly shook her head: "I just feel that, Brother Lin Nai, you always seem to think of things that other people can't."

Lin Nai gave a wry smile: "Do you know why?"

"Huh?" the girl asked, puzzled.

“I felt something was off about this incident from the very beginning.” Lin Nai said calmly, “The capital city is arguably the strongest and most heavily fortified city-state in the Yan Kingdom.”

"If those werewolves were only hunting humans for food, or hunting a group of low-level superhumans, they wouldn't need to choose the capital city at all."

“If they were in a smaller, fifth-tier city, or a county or town near the mountains, they might never be caught. But in the capital, it’s only a matter of time before they are caught.”

As night fell, Lin Nai's words slowly came to mind: "I understand. You feel that the benefits they receive are not proportional to the risks they take?"

“That’s right.” Lin Nai narrowed his eyes: “When you’re stuck on something, the simplest approach is to think about the other party’s motives and interests.”

"Many things seem suspicious, but you can't figure out why they're suspicious. This is because you feel that what the other party is doing is of no benefit to them whatsoever."

"A normal person would never do something that doesn't benefit them for no reason."

"For example, some online merchants upgrade your service plan for free, and the price is even lower, while they also have to spend manpower to promote it—so the question arises, why would they do something that results in a loss for them? Are they doing charity?"

Lin Nai shrugged: "Obviously, it's because there must be some tricks and secrets hidden in this."

"Hmm..." The girl pondered for a moment, then looked up at Lin Nai.

Linna: "What is it now?"

Night: "I think you sound like my second aunt."

Linnaeus: "..."

"Actually... when my second aunt came that day, she said some things to me." Ye Wan'er shrank her neck and looked at Lin Nai timidly: "You, you shouldn't be angry after hearing it."

Lin Nai was taken aback: "Huh? What's wrong?"

Night: "She said... she thinks you're a pretty bad person..."

Linnaeus: "..."

"...Then she still lets you stay with me?" Lin Nai was speechless.

"Second Aunt means..." Ye Wan'er glanced at Lin Nai again, and said shyly, "If I spend more time with you, maybe I won't keep getting lied to..."

"......"

"walk slowly......"

Lin Nai was at a loss for words.

In fact, Lin Nai knew very well that Wan'er was very intelligent; the intelligence of a Black Angel was far superior to that of a human. It was just that it seemed that Wan'er had focused most of her intelligence on cultivation and scientific research...

After all, before coming to the human realm, she had only interacted with a dozen or so people throughout her life, and all of them were her instructors...

It's quite normal to lack social experience.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have been tricked by Lin Nai into wearing a maid outfit when we first met...

Furthermore, when it comes to understanding human nature... it seems that only humans truly understand each other...

Back to the main topic, Ye'er asked, "So what do we do now?"

“Of course, it’s about finding those werewolves,” Linnaeus said. “Do you know what kind of people a fugitive murderer fears most and what kind of people he fears least?”

Night tilted her head and thought for a while: "The person I'm most afraid of running into is the police."

“That’s right.” Lin Nai narrowed his eyes: “The people we’re least afraid of running into are our competitors. Because none of us are clean, we won’t betray each other.”

Nightfall seemed to suddenly understand Linnaeus's meaning: "I understand..."

Capital City, Night Watch, Fifth Ring Road Branch.

When it was time for Captain Jiang to leave work, he returned to his house, exhausted both physically and mentally.

The room was dark, the lights were off. A dark figure sat in the darkness, arms crossed, and said with amusement, "What's wrong? You don't seem to be in a good mood today?"

Captain Jiang clenched his fist slightly, his eyes darkening as he said, "It's been a month already, when are you going to kill all those bastards?!"

"Hehe, don't be in such a hurry." The shadowy figure said leisurely, "As you know, they are from the Superhuman Association, a very powerful organization. If our intentions are too obvious, do you think we can succeed so easily?"

"But now, the authorities have already sent people from the Confucian Company to investigate this matter!" Captain Jiang said coldly. "The Confucian Company's operations won't report to me, and I have no way to get intelligence for you anymore! If you want to continue operations in the future, it will only become more difficult!"

The shadowy figure seemed completely unconcerned, even grinning and shaking his head: "They're not Confucianists."

Captain Jiang frowned: "Not a Confucian? What do you mean?"

“They are from the Dark Moon Organization,” the shadowy figure said. “The identity of a Confucian employee is just a facade.”

"Dark Moon?" Captain Jiang had never heard of this force before.

“You’ve definitely never heard of it,” the shadowy figure said leisurely. “It’s a secret organization trained by your government. Of course, a nobody like you wouldn’t know about it.”

"I don't care what kind of organization this is." Captain Jiang's eyes were gloomy. "I just want those bastards to die as soon as possible! Isn't your gene company supposed to have influence all over the world? Does it take this long to take down a mere branch leader?"

Oops, one more chapter is in the automatic review process and probably won't be released until tomorrow morning. Everyone, go to sleep now.
