Chapter 79: Go as You Say
"The recent anomalies in District 3 are related to you two, right?" the man in white uniform asked in a serious tone.
In front of him, Li Li smiled and said, "Um, is there any problem?"
She put her hands behind her back and made an exploratory gesture.
An Heyu behind her lowered his head, his golden eyes swept across Li Li's back, and at the same time the invisible area began to expand.
In addition to analyzing and controlling the undead, An Heyu's supernatural power, Prelude of the Undead, has another function, which is what he used when he first met Li Li.
He can detect energy bodies within the field.
Yue Qing once wanted to use this ability to find out whether the Heige they brought out was the real one, but Li Li happened to defeat him in the end.
At this time, the S-level domain includes the entire third zone, and the scope is even extending to include half of the first zone.
And after that, when Li Li turned around, he shook his head very slightly.
This person really came alone, at least there was no S-rank following him.
"With just two of you, you conquered the entire Third District and killed Shu Du. You are very dangerous." The man in the white uniform continued, as if he was praising, but the sense of superiority in his words was obvious.
It's like praising someone of a lower status than him, with a sense of condescending scrutiny.
Li Li just tilted her head: "Do you think you are strong?"
Since he suspected her, he came alone.
To be honest, for a moment Li Li felt that this was a tip-off to her.
The man in the white uniform did not answer Li Li's words, and continued to talk to himself: "I am suspicious of all unfamiliar things, including you. Ranmu City should not be attractive to powerful psychics. Its daytime will only make psychics uncomfortable. Except for those who grew up here, there is no reason for you to come here."
He seemed to have his own reasoning: "You said you did it for the money, but who knows if it's true."
The incandescent lights from the tall buildings nearby illuminated the road ahead, and in the darkness, a few explosions were faintly heard from the distance.
"I don't trust you. Your words may be lying, your appearance may be fake. I doubt you, including your self-clarification. So don't say that," he said.
"It seems that you have made sufficient preparations." Li Li said with a little interest, her curved eyebrows never changing.
"The branch president won't do anything without money, and he won't pay for my guess." The man in the white uniform said frankly. He looked at Li Li and An Heyu who had been silent behind her. "You are indeed very strong to be able to kill Shu Du, but that's all."
"This is Ranmu Castle, the territory of the Lin noble family, and I am an analyst of the Lin Supernatural Guild. I will prove my guess myself." As he spoke, suddenly a row of pupils appeared under his eyes, his supernatural powers were activated, and his hands turned into long sickles and began to attack.
"Only superpowers won't lie. Your superpowers can tell me who you really are," he said.
Instantly the long sword floated up, Li Li grasped the hilt with one hand, raised his wrist casually, and blocked the long halberd with his backhand.
Her movements were smooth and flowing, and she just stood there, without even the corner of her clothes moving.
She even turned her other hand behind her back and gestured to An Heyu to stay calm.
"You don't look like you're just going to give it a try and be done with it." Li Li said casually.
The scepter was blocked, and at the same time, four arms connected to the scepter, which were born from the man in the white uniform's supernatural power, grew out from his back.
He was very fast, and his mimicry ability had transformed his body to be suitable for combat. As soon as he finished speaking, another long halberd attacked from the blind spot of Li Li's defense.
But the black-haired girl holding the long sword kept smiling, turned her wrist to block the first halberd, and at the same time blocked the second one.
It's not over yet.
"The chapter president would only be happier if I killed you."
The speed of the man in white uniform was increasing, and the two different sharp blades seemed to have become afterimages in the air.
He was fast, so fast that even the naked eye could not tell where his halberd would come from.
A-level mimicry
The ability to integrate itself into the means of attack, as if it can even break the air, leaving a moment of vacuum.
"bite"
Along with the sound of clinking metal, the expression of the man in the white uniform changed from serious at the beginning to alert and fearful.
"Magic type?" He analyzed it through the creation of the void, but his tone was still doubtful.
He was attacking, but the target of his attack seemed to treat his attack as light feathers and did not take it seriously.
"Have you finished asking questions?" Li Li said.
Li Li’s opponent was not this A-level, but the mysterious Lord of Ranmu City behind him.
Who did she see in the daytime? Was it Lin Ran?
If so, then even at night, it is still under observation?
If it was really Lin Ran, would she stop Li Li from attacking her subordinates?
Li Li doesn't like to be passive, and when she knows that the person she meets is weird, she is ready to explore her.
She also thought about Lin Ran's character. Assuming the worst premise, the person she met was indeed Lin Ran, she might be able to observe Ranmu City at night. But if this is the case, Lin Ran is maintaining order while indulging his desires.
There is a high probability that Lin Ran will not destroy this eternal night, which also gives Li Li the confidence to test it at this time.
The illusion is truly launched, and what remains is just an illusion.
"Then consider that you have finished asking questions." Li Li took over the attack and said with a somewhat calm and leisurely chuckle, "It's my turn to ask questions. How has your master been sleeping recently?"
The long sword flipped over, and in that split second it accurately pierced into the chest of the man in the white uniform.
It went very smoothly and everything was over in the blink of an eye.
And Lin Ran did not hinder.
Either she let it go, or she didn't see it.
"You are very strong." The man in white uniform took a few steps back and said, "But you can't resist the revenge of the superpower guild! The revenge of Lin family!"
But Li Li ignored him.
Li Li thought about the possible scenarios that might occur in this situation, and then asked Phantom to wave his hand.
"Xiaohong." she said.
An Heyu said in a hoarse voice: "I understand."
In the realm of Prelude of the Dead, another energy body soon appeared and dissipated after An Heyu's analysis.
It was especially convenient to have a tool who could understand her thoughts, in every way.
In short, Li Li was very satisfied.
She was thinking about the news she now had.
There are currently two possibilities: the 'Lin' she met was not Lin Ran, and the 'Lin' she met was Lin Ran.
The first possibility means that Yong Ye is still not under Lin Ran's jurisdiction, and she is sleeping soundly at home.
The second possibility is that Lin Ran will appear at night, and the eternal night is either the result of her indulgence or she is powerless.
Recalling Lin's terrible mental state, Li Li felt that the possibility of this happening was surprisingly high.
There are two reasons why she did not stop her subordinates from dying. One is that she did not care about the life or death of her subordinates, and the other is that Li Li was more important in her mind.
Recalling Lin's words "I think our relationship has reached the point where we can exchange names", Li Li couldn't help but feel that the other party was not very social and had low emotional intelligence.
Although the latter speculation was a bit narcissistic, Li Li always felt that it was very likely.
When she grabbed her clothes and asked her questions, she didn't think there was anything wrong with Lin at first because she looked very much like an ordinary person who was rescued and therefore somewhat dependent on the person who rescued her.
While thinking, An Heyu finished his analysis.
"This man's name is Tan Qian. As he said, he is indeed an analyst in the Supernatural Guild, but Lin Ruye mostly uses his knowledge to analyze how to make money." An Heyu closed his eyes and spoke slowly.
Then he opened his eyes and looked at Li Li: "Before he came to District 3, he told Lin Ruye that he was coming back, and mentioned that if he didn't go back before midnight, or didn't go to the Lin family's house first, then his guess was correct and he would be replaced by the illusionist."
"He has indeed made a lot of preparations," Li Li said. She glanced at the time and saw that there was still an hour left before midnight. "There is still enough time."
"..." An Heyu stretched out his hand and made a stop gesture, "Wait a moment, wait a moment."
He looked at Li Li with a look that said, "Did I misunderstand you?" and asked slowly, "Can you explain more clearly what you want to do?"
Li Li said as a matter of course: "You have guessed it, right? Just go and check out Lin's house."
An Heyu even forgot to pull up his poncho, letting the night wind blow up his bright red poncho.
"So when you ask me, Lin Ran, it's not that I want to go in the afternoon, but that I want to go in the evening?" He took a deep breath, still a little bit incredulous.
No, actually when she asked, she didn't plan to go right away, Li Li thought.
The problem was that things had come to this point, and it would be a shame not to go for a walk. And she really wanted to see if Lin Ran was sleeping.
"Can the Lin family detect the superpowers of the undead you control?" Li Li asked when An Heyu seemed to disagree.
An Heyu shook his head: "I haven't tried it. Qu Yan's ability can't track me, but Lin Ran is SS-level, and his level is suppressed, so it is very likely that he can see it."
"That is to say, it may not be possible to see it." Li Li calculated and felt that the possibility of success was very high.
"That being said..." An Heyu's attitude has begun to soften.
"Let's give it a try." Li Li made the final decision.
If 'Lin' is Lin Ran, then even if she is avoiding him, she has already entered her sight.
If 'Lin' wasn't Lin Ran, then they wouldn't be facing an SS-rank.
Anyway, they have to send the white uniform back once, so they might as well take a gamble.
...
Ten minutes later, at the door of the house, the fountain was still running at night, making a gurgling sound.
The man in white uniform named Qin Qian used his ID card and the door was soon opened for him.
Then he walked into the quiet and suitable house built behind the high wall.
In the summer, the greenery and fountains in this area make the air fresh and moist, and the lights that are still on in the residences make the tranquility even more special.
On the shoulder of the man in white uniform, a crow phantom, invisible with magic, stood quietly, and raised its small head in line with the man's footsteps.
In this house, only the lights in the highest attic were turned off, and it was dark.
The moon climbed up the tree branches, and the servants on duty silently made way for Tan Qian. After Tan Qian entered the house, an old man who looked like a housekeeper came forward and said in a low voice: "The young master is in the study."
Tan Qian nodded, indicating that he understood.
