Chapter 268 You Are Smart, You Are Amazing, You Are the only One Who Can Play Chess
After Su Chen's hood was taken off, he found himself standing in the middle of a European-style study.
The masked man stood behind him motionless, always paying attention to any action of Su Chen.
In this kind of scene, the mastermind behind the scenes must be about to appear.
For Su Chen, no matter who this person is, it is a good opportunity to dig out the truth behind it.
This reminded Su Chen of his mind-reading technique.
Su Chen glanced at the old clock in the cabinet - 8 o'clock in the morning.
If there is not enough time to check the other party's memory, then he can only find a way to make the other party tell the truth...
Su Chen opened the "technique" of his mind-reading technique.
Waiting for the other party to arrive.
Although it is very dangerous to do so, knowing more truth will only increase the probability of being silenced...
However, Su Chen still decided to do so.
In Su Chen's mind, there is no free lunch in the world, and it is normal to contact any truth in the dark.
After a while.
There was a sound of footsteps.
The door of the study was opened.
An old man in a wheelchair appeared in front of Su Chen.
A maid pushed the wheelchair, followed by two tall men.
This old man should be the head of the previous generation of the Kesbu family - Kyle Kesbu.
Although Su Chen learned the names of most people in the Kesbu family when investigating the six names of the Parrot Kingdom in the previous preparations, Su Chen did not know the specific things in the family.
He must take this opportunity to find out the details of the Kesbu family...
Perhaps, after taking this step, he will be close to the truth of the Ripper case.
The old man sat in a wheelchair and was pushed to the desk by the servant.
At the same time, Su Chen was also pressed on the sofa behind him by the person guarding him.
After Su Chen sat down, the three people behind the old man, including the maid, turned their bodies and faced the old man with their backs.
"Sir, what is your name?" Su Chen asked.
Seeing that the old man did not speak.
Su Chen's heart skipped a beat.
Now that he has opened the mind-reading technique, can the other party still refuse to answer his questions?
Why doesn't he speak?
After waiting for a while, the old man picked up a pen on the table and wrote on a board.
This action made Su Chen complain in his heart...
What's going on?
Is he a mute?
This is probably not deliberately resisting my mind-reading technique? !
After a while, the old man picked up the sign.
[I'm sorry, I haven't been able to speak for more than ten years. My name is Kyle Kesbu. ]
"Hello, Mr. Kyle, did you send someone to kidnap me?"
Hearing Su Chen's question, Kyle did not hesitate.
He erased the original words, picked up the pen and continued to write.
[Yes. You shouldn't question me like this. If I hadn't kidnapped you, you would be dead now. ]
"So, you saved me?"
[Yes, although I don't expect you to thank me, you must follow my plan and stay with me at ease. I will let you go back when the time comes. 】
"Then I really met a good person. But even the best people have their own motives. Can you tell me why? Or what do you want from me?"
[No, you already know enough. ]
Hearing this answer, Su Chen's heart sank.
It is now clear that the "art" of the mind-reading technique can only affect the target's language. If you don't speak, there is no way to make the other party tell the truth.
However.
Su Chen did not give up, he continued to ask questions.
"Mr. Kyle, do you know who the real murderer of the Ripper case is?"
Hearing this question, Kyle was slightly stunned.
[I don't know. ]
At this moment, Su Chen stared at Kyle's eyes.
When the mind-reading technique failed, he did not expect the other party to tell him the answer directly.
So this question was just Su Chen's test.
From Kyle's eyes, Su Chen got the answer he wanted-Kyle knew who the real murderer was.
Eyes can't lie.
[But I kindly remind you to stay away from this case, otherwise, no one can save you. 】
【The reason I called you here is to tell you that I gave you a chance to survive. I hope you can cherish it and stop struggling. 】
Seeing these words, Su Chen shrugged.
He felt the wet towel hidden on his calf begin to seep water. Since this guy refused to tell him anything, it would be better to go back early.
Otherwise, the wet towel will be discovered sooner or later.
"Okay, then I understand. Since you refuse to tell me anything, we have nothing to talk about. Please send me back."
【Remember, not everyone is as lucky as you. 】
"Thank you for reminding us, but can you send us something delicious? Your bread is really too hard."
………
Su Chen was sent back to the cellar.
After the iron door was closed again, Su Chen took out the wet towel he had hidden.
Lao Qi stepped forward and asked, "Comrade Su Chen, what is this...?"
"Herbicide."
Su Chen squeezed half of the toothpaste while speaking.
Then he tore off a small piece from the crusty bag that held the bread, made a small funnel, and placed it on the opening of the toothpaste.
"Comrade Su Chen! You really got it! Awesome!"
Lao Qi was very excited and gave a thumbs up.
However.
Luo Ji and Wang Yanxing acted very calm, and even looked on coldly.
This made Su Chen feel a little strange.
Su Chen looked at the two people sitting in the corner and said, "I say, you two, at least I helped you complete part of the task, why are you not happy at all?"
"Hey, what's so strange about this, Su Chen, there is nothing he can't do...right?"
After Luo Ji said this, he couldn't help but snorted coldly, full of sourness.
Seeing Luo Ji looking at him, Wang Yanxing also said with emotion:
"Yes.
"Comrade Su Chen is so powerful, playing big chess every day, and others can only be chess pieces. "
Luo Ji continued:
"But being a chess piece is not easy...
"You have to cheer for him...It's difficult, too difficult..."
Su Chen was dumbfounded by the two guys in front of him and said, "Are you two telling crosstalk here? Hurry up! Come and help me hold the funnel!"
"Why are you in a hurry? It's not like I can't get out anyway..." Luo Ji curled his lips.
"Why are you in a hurry? Do you know who I just met?"
Luo Ji/Wang Yanxing: "Who?"
"The mastermind of our kidnapping! Kyle Kesbu! He said that he would kill us after tonight. Do you think I can't be anxious?!"
"What?!!"
Including Lao Qi, the three of them widened their eyes.
Wang Yanxing hurriedly stepped forward to hold the funnel and said, "Luo Ji! Why are you still standing there?! Help me!"
Before Su Chen could wring the water out of the towel.
Footsteps sounded outside the door again.
Several people hurriedly hid their things.
The iron door opened.
The masked man put down the large plate of food he was carrying and left.
Milk, cheese, and a whole leg of lamb...
Looking at these things, Luo Ji was stunned and murmured: "It's over... It's really over..."
Wang Yanxing also sighed:
"I didn't expect... The whole world emphasizes not to starve to death..."
