Chapter 80: Really Visiting
Inside the Lin family's house, the lights were on, the servants were all awake, and servants often walked through the corridor.
The eyes of the illusion are Li Li's eyes. Through the illusion of the crow standing on Tan Qian's shoulder, Li Li noticed that these servants were walking in a hurry, and when they passed Tan Qian, they subconsciously gave way and looked afraid.
'Qin Qian' was controlled by An Heyu. Seeing this, An Heyu asked 'Qin Qian' to grab the wrist of a servant when he passed by, and asked a harmless question.
The servants were obviously anxious to get rid of Tanqian and were afraid of him.
These are not just one or two people. Tan Qian is not well-received among the servants.
According to Tan Qian's memory, he soon arrived in front of the study. For safety reasons, Li Li shrank into a small crow that could fit into his pocket.
Then 'Qin Qian' knocked on the door.
"Dongdong." This work is by
After pushing open the door, a pair of red eyes appeared from the small crow head in the pocket of the white uniform.
The lights in the study were bright, Lin Ruye was sitting behind the desk, and there were documents on the desk. When Qin Qian walked in, Li Li saw that it was a running account of income.
Seeing this, Li Li sighed, and read her savings late at night by lamplight, and Lin Ruye was overwhelmed by the character of "loving money".
She had to learn to make her new identity more meaningful.
After all, when she first came out, she used making money as an excuse.
Tan Qian bowed first, then said, "President, you are right. Those two people have nothing to do with the illusionist."
Hearing this, Lin Ruye put down the documents in his hand and leaned back.
"Oh, of course." He glanced at the corner of the ceiling, then retracted his eyes. "Although the old woman is a nuisance, she is a SS after all. The illusionist came to Ranmu City just to die."
Li Li noticed that direction was the direction of the attic she saw before she came in.
Is Linran there? she wondered.
Tan Qian did not intend to leave after reporting the incident, but instead changed the subject and said, "But I still feel uneasy. The activities of those evildoers have become more rampant recently. The Yue and An families have already been defeated by them."
He said in a very instructive way: "President, they also have S-rank, and Qu Yan also died at the hands of the illusionist. Are we really okay?"
"The peasant Yue family and the poor An family? Just them?" Lin Ruye said sarcastically, "It was only Qu Yan who had an accident."
He sat up straight and pointed in the direction he had just looked.
"Yes, you have only been here for the past two years," he said. "Then let me tell you why I have been able to tolerate that old woman until now."
"There are only ten SS-class psychics in the Empire, and the old woman is one of them. Except for the other nine people and the one behind the royal family, no one can escape from her psychic power." Lin Ruye sneered, "In recent years, she has been quiet during the day, but six years ago, when the old woman decided to build Ranmu City, do you know how many people she killed in one day?"
Tan Qian shook his head and followed Lin Ruye's lead and said, "I don't know."
Lin Ruye stretched out five fingers and opened them towards Tan Qian.
"Fifty people?" Tan Qian agreed with the guess.
Maybe five hundred at most, Li Li thought.
But this time Li Li guessed wrong.
Lin Ruye did not keep the secret, he calmly revealed the answer: "Five thousand."
The total population of Ranmu City after the merger was about one million, and during that period, Linran killed more than 5,000 people a day.
"The initial violent suppression lasted for three days. In just three days, there was no one left in Ranmu City to resist." Lin Ruye seemed to be recalling the scene at that time. He said, "I remember very clearly that the housekeeper reported to the old woman how many corpses they dealt with later. There were a total of 13,840 people. The corpses were piled up at the original site of the library, and the blood flowed for hundreds of meters."
"How many people died in one night of Eternal Night?" He began to laugh. "One hundred? Two hundred? Can it be this number?"
"The unreasonable restrictions do not allow any violence or abuse of superpowers. But she is the most violent and abuser of superpowers."
"At that time, I really felt that she had no heart. She was not human at all. Humans would not be like her. But now I don't think so." Lin Ruye stretched out his hand, pointed at his heart, and said, "This kind of thing is the most unnecessary. She doesn't want it, and I don't need it either."
Perhaps it was a rare opportunity for Lin Ruye to speak out his true feelings. After he finished speaking, he was silent for a while, and then he said to the silent Tan Qian: "The illusionist will not come. As long as the old woman is not dead, Ranmu City will be their burial place."
"And Ranmu City is not the first choice for illusionists. The remnants of the people saved by the prophet are still alive and kicking in Sang's territory. That is where illusionists should go." Lin Ruye finally said, "You have been drifting lately, Qin Qian. What you should do is just think about how to make money, not whether the illusionist will come to Ranmu City."
Tan Qian lowered his head obediently and said, "What the president said makes sense, but I feel a little uneasy."
"Whatever you want." Lin Ruye didn't care much, "No one in Ranmu City will resist the supernatural prince.
Yes, go and play by yourself."
Lin Ruye didn't want to say anything anymore. He waved his hand to let 'Qin Qian' leave and continued to check his account flow.
...
A hundred meters away, An Heyu controlled 'Qin Qian' to leave the study and prepared to leave.
"It's over." He breathed a sigh of relief.
Beside him, Li Li was sitting on a tree branch, her long legs swinging casually under her long skirt.
"It's not over yet." Li Li said. She looked down and saw An Heyu's red hood. "Stay there for a while."
An Heyu: "..."
He had a bad and vague premonition, but this premonition seemed to have become a daily check-in item.
And his premonition turned out to be true.
In the Lin family residence, the phantom that was originally in Qin Qian's pocket left the pocket at some point and flew towards the attic.
And 'Qin Qian' naturally started talking to the housekeeper.
The phantom flew in the air, causing a gust of wind, but failed to attract the attention of the servants below.
During this adventure, she learned a lot from Lin Ruye, but the thing that Li Li was most concerned about had not yet been resolved.
Recommend a travelogue to her, and find out whether the person she saved once at night was Lin Ran.
In Lin Ruye's description, Lin Ran was like a stone sculpture high above, cold and ruthless, carving the laws she had made into this land.
Would such a person pretend to be an ordinary person at night and be caught by the supernatural people who are engaged in human trafficking?
Don't trust everything Lin Ruye says.
Now that we are here, why not go to Linran and take a look before leaving?
Li Li came to the only place in the Lin family's house where the lights were turned off.
Unlike other attics, the stairs here do not lead directly to the interior of the attic.
There is a wall around the attic, and the cement slabs cover the attic. From the outside, you can only see the cement wall pretending to be an attic. To enter the attic, you must go from the inside. The stairs of the house lead to the wall and the corridor of the attic. However, the doors and windows of the attic are sealed with wooden boards, and it seems that they cannot be opened.
The invisible black crow flapped its wings and landed in the aisle.
Li Li felt that this place was like a prison, isolated from the world, where not even the sunlight could penetrate.
Is Lin Ran here? She took a few steps forward, and the transformed crow jumped on the ground without making any sound.
The opponent is an SS-level psychic. Just as Lin Ruye said, Lin Ran is very strong.
At least now that she is at level A, Li Li has no power to resist.
There is a huge gap between the middle level and the high level. Li Li was able to try to jump to the A level and win when she was at the B level, but when she faced the S-level Yue Qing, she used tricks to overcome his psychological defenses, and the S-level Qu Yan was killed by the S-level An Heyu, so she just talked.
The last time she faced Dan, she just delayed and had no intention of killing him directly.
For Li Li now, SS rank will only make her stronger and more troublesome.
A long-lost feeling of tension enveloped her, and she seemed to have returned to the time when she was still an ordinary person but had to face the mid-level psychic Qing Yuchen.
Quietly, the crow jumped in a circle in the square aisle.
Li Li found a door that could be opened.
The black crow raised its head, looked at the closed door, and tilted its head.
Li Li prepared to shrink the phantom and then slip in through the crack in the door.
At this moment.
"Squeak"
This door actually opened!
A hundred meters away, Li Li paused, and at the same time, the phantom crow flapped its wings and flew up, putting some distance between itself and the room behind the open door.
A cluster of candle flames was reflected in the crow's red eyes.
In this darkness, the dim candlelight flickers in the breeze from the open door.
Inside the door was a simple tea room with a lamp placed on a low tea table. Behind the tea table, a woman who looked to be in her twenties was sitting on the floor with her head lowered.
It was unclear whether the color was stained by the candlelight or was her original color. Her long orange hair spread out on the ground, extending out and disappearing into the darkness that the candlelight could not illuminate.
As the candle flame flickered, she raised her eyes and looked ahead, where there should have been nothing.
The dark purple pupils seemed to see the black crow hiding in the air.
It’s Linran!
Instead of sleeping, she opened the door to the intruder.
A hundred meters away, Li Li's original body jumped down from the treetop cautiously and put her hand on An Heyu's shoulder.
Be prepared to evacuate at any time!
Inside the Lin family's house, the housekeeper who was talking to Tan Qian advised him, "Don't make the young master angry again."
"The master of the house is here to protect us. If the remaining evildoers dare to come, they will never return."
At the same time, Yu Nie and the head of the Lin family seemed to be looking at each other through a door.
Li Li was waiting, waiting for Lin Ran's reaction.
And in this silent air, in the dim candlelight, the orange-haired woman opened her mouth.
"We have a very good relationship. You are willing to come to my house to see me." She said in the direction of Black Crow.
Li Li: ...?
A hundred meters away, Li Li's real body put down the hand that was on An Heyu's shoulder.
What did Lin Ruye say, that Lin Ran would kill the remnants or something?
Invite the evildoers to the house and kill them?
Does this also count as a case of 'Your Majesty, why did you surrender first when we were ready to fight to the death?'
A minute later, Li Li sat down on the floor, separated from Lin Ran by a tea table with tea sets on it.
In the candlelight, Lin Ran looked over with her empty eyes and asked, "Do you like tea?"
Li Li still had that smiling face, and then asked bluntly: "Do you have milk tea?"
In short, becoming a guest of the search target is also a kind of search success.
