Not to mention the first public appearance of the five people of Xie Lun on the TV screen, which shocked the audience's soul, and then turned their eyes to the depths of the island.

Mason seemed to have a big explosion above and the mine collapsed, but he would not have thought that all he saw were illusions. He can only hold his breath and try to dive to the bottom of the lake, hoping to find a way out below.

But the lake seemed to have no bottom. I had dived down for almost five minutes. I still didn't see the bottom of the lake, nor did I see any other way out. Although the lake water exudes a faint white glow, allowing him to have vision at the bottom of the lake, but Mason cannot Roar suck in the water.

Although he held his breath for up to fifteen minutes, that was the peak of his youth, and now it is only five minutes at most. So Mason is very anxious. If he can't see the way out anymore, he must venture upwards and see if he can find a gap to let himself go out and Roar suck.

After diving down for another minute, Mason felt that his eyes were starting to turn black and his chest was about to tear, but he still couldn't see the end, so he could only turn his head and float up in desperation.

But Mason soon found out in horror that he was floating at a very fast speed at the risk of tearing his lungs from the water pressure imbalance, but he couldn't rise to the surface of the lake. Even if the lake is covered with collapsed rocks, then I should have seen such things as rocks.

But there was nothing, except for the white water, he couldn't see anything.

Mason suddenly panicked. Although he is a well-trained elite agent, once he got older, he was inevitably panicked at the juncture of life and death.

The panic caused Roar to breathe quickly. Roar's rapid breath would speed up the oxygen consumption, and the oxygen consumption would even lead to panic... This is a vicious circle, Mason knows very well, but he can't control himself.

Finally, driven by a strong desire to survive, even though he knew he was in the water, Mason couldn't help but open his mouth, and Roar sucked. The cold lake water poured into the body along the nose and mouth, but a surprise appeared.

Mason did not feel the suffocation caused by the water blending into his lungs, but rather cool and comfortable.

"This water..."

Mason raised his hands in astonishment, the water could provide Roar sucking. Now he felt that he didn't need to go up anymore, opened his mouth to spit out a series of bubbles, watched the bubbles rise, and after judging the up and down, he turned and swam towards the bottom of the lake.

Like a fish.

Although the water provides Roar suction, and even though the water emits white light, Mason cannot see the bottom of the lake no matter how far he dives. In the end, Mason felt a little desperate. Is this lake connected to the other side of the earth?

No, the riddle must be related to that riddle.

"...It's darker than darkness, deeper than night, icer than ice, hotter than flames...what does this mean?"

Mason clenched his fists. He had been thinking about this riddle for decades. Whether in prison or outside, he was looking for the answer to this riddle.

But now the treasure chest is in front of him, but he can't take out the key to open the treasure chest, which undoubtedly makes Mason feel extremely entangled.

"Idiot, it's the heart."

A cold woman's voice suddenly rang in Mason's ear.

Mason was startled and turned his head suddenly, only to find a woman in black floating just behind him. Although he looks very beautiful, he has no expression on his face, staring at himself coldly like a corpse.

Mason pulled out the pistol from his waist, pointed at the woman, and wanted to talk, but his mouth just spit out a series of bubbles, unable to make a sound at all.

"Human hearts, only human hearts can be darker than darkness, deeper than night, icer than ice, and hotter than flames." The woman's mouth did not move, but her voice sounded clearly in Mason's ears. The meaning of this riddle is that in order to open the treasure chest, one must sacrifice a human heart."

"A human heart?"

Mason subconsciously touched his heart, suddenly his whole body was agitated, and he looked at the woman with an unkind expression. After a while, he squeezed the trigger fiercely.

Silent air waves burst out a ball of balloons in the water, bullets shot out from the muzzle, and a visible water channel was drawn in the water and shot at the woman.

"too slow!"

The woman's figure flashed, and she appeared behind Mason, and a cold voice rang in her ears: "Xie Lun said, if you don't shoot, I will spare you, but it's a pity that you shot."

Mason snorted, and scarlet blood filled his eyes. He slowly lowered his head, only to see a fist File size hole in his chest.

His heart had been pulled out by the woman abruptly.

The woman raised her hand, looking at the beating heart in her hand, frowning: "I found the key, but how do I open the treasure chest?"

She tilted her head to think for a moment, and then shrugged slightly: "Just leave him alone."

As she said, she smashed the heart abruptly as soon as she pressed her hand.

The scarlet flesh and blood began to spread around as the water flowed.

"...After the perpetrator flees to a certain place, he will first select a family with a remote residence and not closely connected with others. Then he will destroy the door and replace him with an impostor... Then he will look for the victim... When it may attract the attention of the local police, he will burn it again. The corpse disappeared and fled to other areas..."

In the video, Holly put down the files in his hand, and said coldly: "I read the report you submitted, and it's just nonsense. There is no name, information, or battle history of the murderer. What did you write in this report?"

Xie Lun smiled unchanged and said, "Secrecy is needed, so I can't elaborate."

"Nonsense, keep it secret to the outside world, and keep it secret to the inside?"

"Yes, Mr. Deputy Director, after all, my team is in a special situation."

"Stop being sloppy on me, bastard, tell me the truth, did you go to Gotham with me behind?"

Even if it was just a video call, Sharon could still feel Holly's aggressive eyes. He subconsciously moved his eyes away, smiled and said, "No."

"Look at me and say it again."

"Ahem...no!"

"Believe you are ghosts. I have received intelligence. A few days ago, there was a fire in a villa in Gotham. All four of the family were buried in the flames, and the adopted daughter was missing. The Gotham police are currently conducting a large-scale search. ."

Holly said coldly: "Do you dare to say this, it has nothing to do with you?"

Xie Lun nodded: "No!"

"Okay, you have a kind, brat." Holly lowered her voice suddenly, "Remember, no matter who asks you in the future, you won't be able to admit it, do you know?"

Xie Lun smiled and said, "My lord Deputy Director, what you said is strange. These things have nothing to do with me, so why not admit it?"
