Chapter 376 Questioning

"Well, he's not crazy, but there's something wrong with his concepts and opinions."

Annan already understood the man's mental state when he heard the first words he spoke.

"Okay, now I can only take action. This is a veritable change of temperament."

Rodrick was silent, he just stared at Caleb with a solemn face. Ruth.

"... Caleb Russ, I'll give you another chance to speak. Now, collect your thoughts, collect your mood, and then answer my question again."

Roderick was silent for a while, then frowned and spoke.

"Do you realize your mistake?"

"I am not wrong."

The man responded quickly and without thinking, as if by instinct.

"I'm just doing it for Veronica, for her own good..."

"..."

Roderick fell silent again.

He took a deep breath and then looked at the black magician consultant beside him.

Annan shrugged at his boss.

Then, he strode closer to the tightly bound man.

"Please don't resist. Let me check your body and draw some blood from you."

Annan completed everything in just a few minutes using a fairly simple and quick inspection method.

"There are no obvious changes in the body, and the inner dark race bloodline is the same as before. There is no special change. However, the problem is mental from beginning to end."

Annan took out a small box from his backpack.

This is a lunch box that he usually has no chance to use.

Then, he took out a bloody steak from the lunch box.

"how does it feel?"

Annan handed the lunch box in his hand forward, and then asked Caleb, who had dark eyes. Ruth.

"Nothing."

Caleb. Ruth replied calmly.

"Well, there is indeed no huge change in the body."

Annan put away the things in his hands.

"There is no bloodthirsty impulse, which is a good thing, but I don't know if it is the only good thing."

The steak prepared by Annan was no ordinary thing. It was something that could definitely whet the appetite of a werewolf who had been hungry for a while.

That is to say, human flesh.

Annan usually does not prepare this kind of material, but the Nares Gang can prepare it for him.

Since Caleb just woke up. Ruth didn't react much to the specially prepared food, so the other party's mental state might not be so bad.

"Caleb Ruth, do you think you did something wrong?"

"I'm just trying to help Veronica."

The man still didn't change his tune.

Rather, his attitude now is very honest, just like before.

"I understand that she will not accept it easily, so I can only force it."

"You wouldn't have done this before. You will definitely respect Veronica's wishes."

Annan continued to observe the man's condition.

The man's expression was normal, and he didn't try to resist. It was like a familiar friend having a conversation.

"This is the best way, Veronica, she should be clean..."

Annan turned his head and shook his head exaggeratedly at the gang boss who looked increasingly gloomy behind him.

"As you can see, I am certain that this is definitely not an act, this is what he really thinks."

"...Is there any help?"

Roderick did not give up on his number one thug, even if this man had done some irreparable wrongs.

He has used the power of the Nares Gang to completely cover up Caleb. The fact that Russ killed several innocent people is unknown. As long as the insider does not reveal it, no one else will know about it, which means it will be as if the incident never happened.

If, Caleb. If Ruth's current paranoia can disappear, then maybe he can return to his previous life.

"Do you think there is?" Annan asked back.

"..."

Rodrick naturally understood what this meant.

Of course he understood that he was just seeking the last hope and was struggling to his death.

"Rodrick, I can tell you this. This guy's personality is actually not much different from before. His thoughts and ways of doing things shouldn't be much different either. He himself doesn't have much difference. The change is just a partial mental distortion."

Annan's statement only made Rodrick's complexion darker and darker.

"Annan, will he become like Trinidad Nares?"

Trinidad. Nares, the grandfather Roderick once admired.

He is also the murderer of all family members.

"No, your grandfather's condition is different from his. If he is looked after carefully, he will definitely not develop to that extent."

Annan would not give random guarantees to serious allies, and he really thought so.

It's just - there's just something in everything.

"The mental condition distorted by black magic cannot be regarded as a kind of mental illness, but if you want to simply understand it, it can be regarded as a mental illness that will continue to worsen. Now, Caleb Russ is a similar one. It’s happened.”

"……I see."

Roderick nodded stiffly.

Next, he still stood at a safe distance and began to patiently follow Caleb. Ruth communicates.

"..."

The result of more than ten minutes of communication can only be said to be unsatisfactory.

Caleb. Russ almost answered all questions, and his attitude did not change much as before. He was even very aware of the current situation of his prisoner. Did he realize that it was because of what he had done that he was in this kind of situation? treat.

However, he doesn't think he did anything wrong, he feels he is doing the right thing.

Instead, he will feel angry because his peers are obstructing him.

Roderick was speechless.

The conversation between them was so full of absurdity that he didn't even want to talk anymore.

"For the time being... continue to detain him."

Roderick didn't want to decide so quickly what to do with his former best friend.

He just hoped that there was still room for change.

Even if a professional black magician has clearly stated that this cannot be undone.

"This place may not be safe enough. Let's find a suitable location to transfer later."

Roderick can only try to do things well, even if it may be meaningless.

But even if he really has to take the last step, he must first ask Veronica for her thoughts and opinions.

"So, finally, there is one question that must be asked clearly..."

The matter is not over yet, Rodrick realizes this very clearly.

"Caleb Russ, tell me, who taught you that dangerous black magic ritual?"

Even without anyone reminding him, Roderick would not have forgotten the most important doubt that Annan had said.

"Caleb Russ, tell me everything clearly!"
