Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 68 Bait, please correct your attitude

The two walked in the dark, going deeper and deeper into the ground.

Lena watched the passage go deep into the ground, and it was not the way out, and the anxiety in her heart became more and more intense.

She felt as if she was stepping into the abyss step by step.

Finally, Reina couldn't bear the weird indifference, and asked cautiously: "Mr. Su Lun, where are we going now? Aren't we going back to the ground?"

Seeing that timid look around, he probably felt that if something happened in this environment, no one would know even if he yelled out his throat.

"."

Hearing this, Su Lun looked back at her. After pondering for a moment, he finally said a word: "You don't think you are safe now, do you?"

"ah?"

Reina felt a little guilty, as if she saw a word engraved on her forehead from her eyes: stupid.

Su Lun thought for a while, and explained: "The sound of the explosion will travel far, enough to attract killers to come and check. The aberration is just a means of murder, and the mastermind behind the scenes is a human being. If people find out that you are not dead, you think they will Won't come to you? Go out now, I can guarantee that there are killers waiting for you outside."

If saving people was as simple as dealing with a few aberrations, he would not have hesitated several times before deciding whether to take action.

The black hand behind the scenes is what he is really afraid of.

"Huh? Me, me."

When Reina heard it, a lot of contradictory information seemed to flash through her mind instantly, and her speech was a little incoherent.

The monster was chased all the way just now, so I didn't have time to think about it. Then for the first time in a strange environment, naked and changing clothes under the gaze of strangers, my head is still buzzing and blank until now.

After listening to the words, she also wanted to understand in an instant.

Only now did she realize that the man in front of her was as auntie said, with an almost inhuman calmness under any circumstances. (The original words seem to refer to how the bets on the table will drop. Anyway, that’s probably what it means, and it doesn’t matter anymore.)

Thinking of this, Lena realized that she really asked a stupid question just now.

Such a smart gentleman must have guessed his stupid and naive thoughts just now.

She blushed and weakly expressed her apology for guessing wildly: "I'm sorry"

"."

Su Lun didn't pay much attention to her, and didn't seem to care at all, and moved on.

In order to ease the awkward atmosphere, Lena thought for a while, and then said: "Mr. Su Lun, aren't you curious why there is an accident in the trial? And who is the murderer behind the scenes?"

Su Lun frowned, as if he felt a little embarrassed.

Probably because the claustrophobic environment made the eldest lady feel uneasy, making her want to talk for some comfort. But in this situation, is it time to chat?

Oh, sure enough, a woman will only affect the speed of drawing a gun.

He said lightly, "I'm not curious."

"."

Lena looked embarrassed.

Seeing that she was still about to say something, Su Lun felt that this kind of meaningless chat should be killed.

He thought for a while, and then said in one breath: "If I guess correctly, your father should be critically ill or about to retire, and you are the number one heir of the consortium, so you should inherit the consortium logically. Unfortunately, you have Some uncles and cousins ​​who are very utilitarian, and the mastermind behind this attack is probably a direct relative who is most likely to inherit the consortium after you die?"

Hearing this, the shock in Leina's crystal eyes became more and more intense, and she unconsciously exclaimed: "Ah, how do you know?"

"."

The corner of Su Lun's mouth twitched unconsciously, feeling a little bored.

In the end, it is because the entertainment industry and communication in this world are not well developed, and people at the bottom cannot eat melons in the upper class.

But this kind of infighting among wealthy families has already played out badly in the novels of Su Lun's previous life, and in the reality of the major consortiums. What kind of gambling king forced his life to continue, and several concubines fought for power; what son of a chaebol in Bangziguo forced his father to abdicate to seize power; what local tyrant prince chased and killed his bodyguard and lover who cuckolded him

Reality is more bloody than fiction.

The richer you are, the harder you attack your loved ones.

There is no new story.

Su Lun felt that he had talked enough nonsense, so he didn't say anything more.

However, the advantage of having said such a long paragraph is that Reina really got the sense, poked her finger, and obediently followed behind him.

She felt that this man seemed to be able to guess everything.

Calm like a monster.

As the two got deeper and deeper, the stench of the sewer became stronger and stronger.

As he was walking, Su Lun suddenly realized something, and looked back at Lena, who was blushing, with a look of helplessness in his eyes.

I was thinking about other things just now, and forgot that this girl was only wearing a thin shirt, not even a gas mask.

But it was probably because of the repeated talk just now, so Lena was too embarrassed to ask for it.

Su Lun shook his head slightly, then took out clothes, muskets, daggers, and bullets from the storage ring.

"The bulletproof vests in the outer city are technically backward and heavy. Wearing them will greatly affect your agility. It's up to you to choose. If you don't wear bulletproof vests, there is no chance of error tolerance. You must maintain a high degree of vigilance throughout the entire process. Catacombs It is very dangerous inside, and a little carelessness may be a fatal crisis. But if you wear it, if you encounter danger, you will not be able to escape."

Lena took over the heavy body armor, which was dozens of times heavier than the school's combat uniform. She was about to put it on, but after hearing Su Lun's analysis, she thought of something, and retreated back, answering weakly Said: "I still don't wear it."

Su Lun put away the bulletproof vest, then pointed to the firearm hanging on her waist, and reminded: "Try the firearm first, but don't shoot it. The firearms in the outer city are not as good as your academy's. It will be very big. In case of any situation, you should be mentally prepared. The other one is the rune musket, which was given to me by Charlie before, so it should be handy. But the alchemy bullets are limited, so please don’t shoot at will unless necessary. "

"oh."

Leina felt that she knew everything, but in front of this man, she seemed to understand nothing.

She was like a puppet at the mercy of others. Whatever Su Lun said, she could only say "yes", and there was no room for rejection.

Before the man spoke, he had considered everything.

The clothes were Su Lun's men's clothes, and Reina wore them too big. In the end, she only wore the thin shirt, and didn't even wear pants, revealing her white thighs. Fortunately, the darkness concealed the embarrassment on her pretty face, and Su Lun didn't bother to take a second look, so she didn't feel shy.

And the shoes didn't fit my feet, so my feet were bare. However, Catwoman is gifted with the enhanced toughness of the soles of her feet, so she is fine with bare feet, but she feels a little sick when she steps in the wet sewer.

After distributing the equipment, Su Lun spoke again at this time, announcing: "Okay, from now on, you and I will keep a safe enough distance. Don't talk to me, don't make any noise at will and keep absolutely quiet."

"ah?"

When Reina heard this, she was puzzled.

Su Lun didn't hide it, and explained directly: "From now on, you are the bait. I will see if I can save you again based on the strength of the enemy that may appear. Don't look at me with that kind of eyes." Me. You are with me, the enemy will only choose to kill us both at once. I'm just an ordinary gangster hotshot, and you can only live if I survive."

Su Lun still didn't say a word, in case the enemy was invincible, he would throw away the "bait" without hesitation.

After a pause, he continued: "Of course, the most ideal situation is that those enemies think you were killed by the aberration and no one came after you."

"."

Lena was stunned for a moment when she heard this, her pretty face was full of confusion.

Yes, there are killers.

Hearing it like this, it seems that what he said makes a lot of sense?

But if it makes sense, it makes sense, she always finds it weird when she hears this.

A gentleman of high society, even in the face of death, wouldn't he first save the life of his girlfriend?

Why would Mr. Su Lun let me be the bait?

Although she had never experienced such a sudden incident, Lena still felt that the way the plot unfolded was not right.

She wanted to ask, but she didn't know what to say, and he had already said all the truth.

Su Lun felt the aggrieved peeping eyes behind him, and he didn't turn his head at all. He quickly opened the distance, and said as he walked, "I'm just an ordinary guide. I'll take the risk to save you, because it's because Miss Qiantiao is your aunt."

If you don't take the credit for yourself, you will save a lot of trouble.

By the way, selling favors to Big Brother Qiantiao will make it easier to talk later.

Moreover, Su Lun's actions were not pretending to be cruel, but the most sensible choice.

Because he knows human nature well.

Faced with this kind of arrogant noble lady, she feels that it is only right for you to treat her well, because she always treats her like this in her daily life; but when she finds out that your kindness comes at a price, then she will really take it seriously .

Baits are more valuable than haul bottles.

To be a good bait, you must have the awareness to be a bait.

In a word, dog licking has nothing, and equivalent exchange is the eternal truth.

If you want to be saved, you have to pay the price.

What's more, although the words are ruthless, this is the best way Su Lun can think of to save Leina's life.

He knew very well that the killer who dared to attack this young lady was not an easy one.
