Chapter 381 The sense of ritual and surprise are both a must-try part
As the banquet on the Ruthless Flame begins, let us move forward in time.
The Court of the Dead in Wandering Port
In the back kitchen of the "Delicious and Nutritious" restaurant
The victim's family and investigators are gathering in a dark room to discuss the case. brief meeting.
Today, this prestigious hotel finally declared a public holiday, which made people waiting in line in the square sigh in disappointment, and some even shed tears - they were about to leave here, but they had not yet been able to leave the sacred place. The torch is completely imprinted in his eyes.
"Have you got the target's itinerary for the day?"
"Yes."
"Come, please show it for us."
A holographic projector was turned on, and people in the room began to look at the fragmented images of Lucius captured by different shops, passers-by's servo skulls, Cherubeus, or any recorders of the Ministry of Justice or others after he arrived at the port. Action records pieced together from footage - here, if you have money and know the right intelligence dealer or broker to buy from, you can buy almost anything. It's not just a lie.
They watched as Lucius's beautiful silver hair and tall figure caused a small commotion at the port, but the commotion was soon calmed down. The champion swordsman of the Emperor's Children looked around with some curiosity, but he still remembered his own. Although he spent some time on the road and stopped at various stalls selling strange and weird swords or body parts, overall he was heading in the right direction and route.
“This is very strange. He obviously remembers the way to go and always walks on the right route. We can eliminate the first option of getting lost.”
Lamizane was sitting in a huge armchair, wearing a deerstalker hat and holding an extremely ancient smoking tool in his hand. It was carved from the roots of an extinct plant. In the original body His hands were as fragile as if they were made of sand, so he held it very carefully.
“I think you’re talking nonsense.” The border collie commented harshly from the side using his own electronic vocalizer, “Can’t you play these videos quickly? The eyeballs and brain processing speeds of everyone here are far faster. Far better than a mortal, who can finish it in a few seconds - and then we go directly to find the damn thief after watching it, bring back Lucius intact or not, and then throw the thief into the sewer of our ship? ”
“The sense of ritual, the sense of ritual is a very important part of solving a case! Perturabo, a successful detective story. Let’s not mention anything else, but the sense of ritual is necessary for reasoning and solving the case. Yes!”
"...I shouldn't waste time saying this to you, hurry up and read on."
"He has almost reached the Court of the Dead. I think we will see what happened soon." What happened..."
Just as the extraordinary human reasoning investigation exhibition led by Lamizane and Perturabo was proceeding step by step, due to the fact that he was actually doing the work for Lamizane During the editing, Magna Dorn was bored after seeing the ending in advance - now he was looking at this from the meditator connected to the projector.
His body, which stayed nearby, secretly turned on its own sensor array, and began to curiously scan all the buildings and facilities in the roaming port and the nearby asteroid belt - of course, secretly .
Suddenly, Magna Dorn curiously discovered a well-hidden hull code. He had never seen a hull of this type before. It was too rare. Curious, he turned another portion of the sensor array toward the ship, which was hidden in a hidden asteroid dock. "Huh? Look, I found this. What is this? A kind of cruiser? But I have never seen an Imperial Navy ship like this." He sent an inquiry code to the armory, which quickly gave Send a reply.
“It is a prototype of an Ignis-type heavy cruiser. It is indeed rare. I remember it was built by Reza back then. There was only one ship in total. After so many years, I thought it had changed. It's a scrap. It's still in normal use, but there aren't many original parts left. What a shoddy workmanship."
"It's so interesting, does it look rough? The one who was repaired was actually very serious." So, the young and ignorant Iron-Blooded Machine Soul, with a sense of curious exploration and teenagers seeking excitement, turned on the power of his sensor array and directed the beam there. Got out.
Then, Magnar Dorn's mind was froze by what he saw when he scanned the depths of the Relentless Flame.
On the Wandering Port, the mysterious Astartes humanoid mecha standing quietly at the door of the kitchen that was temporarily used as a conference room was responding to all the questions and small actions of Togaton, who was also guarding the door. Turning a blind eye, Loken watched helplessly as Togaton continued to pass the time with verbal cold jokes.
Suddenly, all the Astartes nearby had goosebumps all over their bodies and tried to pull out their weapons immediately: Superman's reflexes and their instincts from years of near-death battles were warning them. Something extremely, extremely, extremely powerful and dangerous suddenly woke up next to them.
Then the former captains of the Luna Wolves saw this mech walking to the door with a speed and movement that their eyes could barely capture clearly, tilting his head slightly in a certain direction, as if Listening intently to something.
"Hey, did you see it? Loken?! Look at him! Look at his movements! It's just..." Togaton said in surprise, and stood up straight, holding his pistol Hold it in your hand.
Loken narrowed his eyes, "Yes, I think. I know what you want to say, it is very much like him... but why... he shouldn't be here, can't be here, no That may be the case."
Just when Togaton raised his steps and wanted to continue asking, right in front of their eyes, the smell of ozone, a slight crackling sound and a burst of teleportation flashed. rise.
Then the mysterious Astartes figure disappeared in place.
Torgadon, who stared at his pocket, turned to Loken, "Is our power armor so advanced? Can it teleport with just an ordinary model size? That's not what the Terminator and Dauntless have. Can it be supported by energy? And where is it going to be? Hey, man! I really want to know how to get it! All the answers to so many of your questions?" Loken said, "You make it sound like I can see the future like some of our pretentious cousins."
"What now?" Dun asked.
"Hurry up and tell the adults and Tavitz who are in the meeting."
"Um... uh... are you sure you want to disturb the Iron Lord who is having a meeting?"
"I don't know if I should disturb him now, but I know that if I don't tell him now, We will definitely die worse next," Loken replied.
