Chapter 224 Avengers

It didn't matter whether what the deep divers said was true or false, but their words made Lynch realize that his previous judgment was actually flawed, but he and Miss Valente had never noticed it. Some very natural judgments now seem to have other possibilities.

Holding the little deep diver hostage, Lin Qi quickly ran through the events of the past few days in his mind, and finally confirmed that there were logical loopholes in three key issues.

First of all, even if Princess Chloe really directed and acted in the incident of stealing the gems, even if she really handed the gems to the deep divers, this does not mean that she must want to find the door between illusion and reality. , she can have another purpose, even a very reasonable purpose.

It's just that she was quite hostile to Lynch from the beginning, and her methods were merciless. Therefore, Lynch and Miss Valente, who were targeted for no reason, were instinctively hostile, and they did not hesitate to evaluate her thoughts with the greatest malice. , acquiescing that her behavior was malicious, so he didn't trust her to hold the gem, but planned to keep it in his own hands. As for why she had strange hostility, the two did not delve into it.

Secondly, even if the one who set up a trap for us on the beach is a deep diver, even if the one who takes away the ruby ​​​​flaming red lips is also a deep diver, it does not mean that the two waves of deep divers are a group. They can be two independent people. It is not that there are no other deep divers around Rhine City. Davis, the wanted criminal who previously bombed the ship to rob the Red Moon Memories, is one of them.

Third, when reading Mark's dying resonance, even if Princess Chloe gave him the Flaming Red Lips and asked him to pass it on to the deep divers, even if someone asked him to reveal the information to reporters to frame him, it would not explain the two Princess Chloe did everything, and the latter could be a conspiracy.

Just because they were already hostile to Princess Chloe, and the image of Miss Valente in the dream was the one she wore at the reception last night, this just formed a psychological suggestion, allowing Lynch and Miss Valente to naturally set up a trap. The framed person and Princess Chloe, who had been hostile before, became one. Moreover, the anger generated by being continuously targeted for no reason went away from his sanity, and he directly invited the apostle in yellow who had also been troubled by the deep divers in the past few days. The two parties worked together to find the deep divers living in the sunken ship.

I didn't realize it when it happened, but the more I think about it now, the more I feel that someone is using my hostility towards Princess Chloe to lead me into a head-on conflict with these deep divers. There is no need to even use lies, everything is true. occurring.

‘Is this what you just said, that truth is sometimes the most dangerous lie? ’

【Um. 】

‘You’ve seen it a long time ago, why didn’t you tell me? ’

[Do you need me to tell you in the future? 】

Lynch hesitated for a moment: ‘No, this is my journey, and I don’t like to spoil it in advance. ’

【Ah……】

The gentle laughter gradually dissipated in his mind. Lynch calmed down and opened the concentric conch so that Miss Valente, who was preparing to respond at the beach, could hear it. Then he coughed dryly and said, "Let me make it clear first, I am only Rhine." A detective in the city, I am not on the same side as anyone, let alone a robber. I think there is some misunderstanding between us, why don’t we sit down and have a serious talk before there are irreversible consequences? "

Dozens of fish faces stared at Lynch with strange eyes, especially at Lynch's arm holding the little girl and the revolver in his hand. Finally, the leader of the old deep divers asked in an old voice: "You Dare you sit down and talk?"

"Well, you can also just stand and talk."

I dare you to rip me alive if I dare to let go. Lin Qi curled his lips and asked:

"Who are you, and why do you say the gem is yours?"

The little deep diver girl in her arms could no longer see her crazy look just now, but she still said bitterly: "Why, why, that was our treasure, you vicious robbers."

"I'm asking you...wait, is that yours?"

Lynch suddenly realized that West's information said that the Flaming Red Lips were snatched from a tribe in the New World, but he did not say that it was a human tribe:

"Are you the tribe that was robbed of gems? Are you here just to take the gems back?"

"Otherwise? Are you really going to travel with your parents?"

Lynch curled his lips and pretended not to hear the ridicule in his words: "So you got the gem from Princess Chloe, but I don't understand why she gave it back to you after she took it away?"

"Who said it was Chloe who snatched the gem? How could she snatch it? She is...well."

Hiss, the information only said that it had been in the hands of Princess Chloe for two years, but it never said that she took it away. It seems that I made the preconception again.

"So, she helped you retrieve the gems and then handed them back to you? Then you could just take the gems and leave. Why did you destroy the merchant ship and massacre the sailors? The innocent sailors didn't provoke you."

"Merchant ship? Sailor? Innocent?" Lin Qi could feel that the little girl was trembling all over, and her voice was getting higher and higher. "Who do you think robbed our property and massacred the young and old of our tribe? This ship was among the murderers. Ship. We have been chasing the murderer for two years, and we finally lured out the last group of robbers and killed them. Are you saying that we are innocent? "

Lin Qi opened his mouth, but found that he had nothing to say. If what the other party said was true, then in their eyes, it would be another story.

The home was destroyed, the treasure was robbed, and the whole family chased the murderer for thousands of miles. Finally, with the help of a foreign princess, they finally lured the murderer out and killed him. As a result, an old enemy came to make trouble outside. When the whole family was fighting, the house was robbed again, and even the left-behind children were almost killed.

"It seems innocent, but I am innocent too. I was targeted by Princess Chloe for no reason, and was induced by people with bad intentions to come to you in the middle of the night. The mastermind behind the scenes tried to provoke a death battle between you and me for some reason, but fortunately it didn't succeed. I just don't know why they did this. They spent so much effort to lure us into the game. They can't be bored. They must have a purpose. I don't know where they got it from us...hiss."

Lin Qi's voice stopped abruptly, his face tightened, and he asked in a dry voice: "It's broken, gem, where did you put the gem?"

"Why should we tell you this robber."

"You don't have to tell me, but there is No one is guarding it?" Lynch asked anxiously, "I suspect their purpose is the gem, to provoke a conflict between us, and then take the gem away. They are the ones who want to use the gem to find the strange object."

As he said that, Lynch gritted his teeth, loosened the neck of the little deep diver, and said seriously: "This is my sincerity. You'd better confirm it first. The gem is very dangerous. In any case, it must not fall into the hands of people with malicious intentions."

The little girl rubbed her neck and glared at Lynch fiercely. All the deep divers breathed a sigh of relief. Some people began to move, but the white-haired old deep divers waved their hands to suppress the evil thoughts of the tribesmen. He looked thoughtful on his face, as if he thought what Lynch said made sense.

"Impossible, the things are very safe. That is the place where we defend the most tightly. Even if your high-level soul-distracting people come, don't think of snatching it away."

The little girl pouted, but the white-haired deep divers whispered a few words in her ear, and the little girl bit her lip and reluctantly hooked her finger at Lynch.

"Come with me, I'll let you see it with your own eyes, and I'll deal with you later."

As he said that, he asked a group of deep divers to surround Lynch in the middle, and surrounded him and returned to the first mate's room.

The room was still the same as before. In the gray mud under the big hole, there were dozens of sailor's bodies floating. The little girl waved her hand at the entrance of the cave, and a body floated up and floated to the entrance of the cave. On the body was the wooden box seen in the dying resonance.

"See, robber, this is the safest place in the whole ship. It is guarded by Dagon himself. Nothing can happen."

Huh, Lynch was relieved, and he didn't plan to rob the gem. He started to think of a way to run away: "Anyway, it's good that this thing is fine."

"Of course it's fine, look."

As he said that, the little girl opened the wooden box, and then everyone around him stared.

The wooden box was empty, with nothing in it.
