Mysterious journey

The man is in his forties, with a beautiful mustache and a mature and steady face. He wears a black top hat on his head and the hem of his black windbreaker reaches down to his heels. What caught Garen's attention the most was that he was holding a black pipe in his hand, and he was smoking it slowly with a frown on his face, blowing out a stream of light white smoke from his nose from time to time.

The woman next to the man is very beautiful, she looks to be in her twenties or thirties, with light blond hair tied behind her back, her body is neatly and neatly groomed, her white windbreaker is spotless and not stained at all. Coupled with the delicate and beautiful white face, it gives people the decisiveness and simplicity of a professional woman.

Garen's entrance did not attract the attention of the three people. He just walked quietly to the old man and listened.

"In that case, the time of the crime should have been last night. The specific time must be analyzed from the scene." The man touched his chin and whispered.

"That's right." The old man replied in a low voice, "That's all the situation. I've said everything I can say. Oh, this is Galen, a regular customer who comes to my store every day."

The man looked the Galleons up and down and nodded. "Can I ask you a few questions?"

"Okay, no problem." Garen replied quickly.

The man casually asked about Galen's visit to the store yesterday evening. After nodding, he and the woman in white on the other side began to wander around the store.

Old Geguo squatted on the ground bitterly and began to pick up old books scattered on the ground, cursing the thief in a broken voice.

"Old man! Have you been robbed?" Garen squatted down and helped pick up the books on the ground.

It's okay not to mention it, but when it was mentioned, the wrinkles on old man Geguo's face suddenly wrinkled. "I wasn't feeling well today, so I planned to come over and open the door for a while in the afternoon. You know I'm not opening the door for you alone. I didn't expect that I saw you as soon as I came in."

The two of them, one old and the other young, got along very well and got along very well, almost like they had been friends for years. Garen felt warm in his heart. He knew that the old man was not feeling unwell, but that he had been like this for many days. When he came in the afternoon, the door was only opened for a while, and it was closed immediately after he left. In fact, the old man didn't care at all whether he made money or not. Just because he wanted to see the medal, he opened the door for him alone.

This old man Geguo was just too lonely and wanted to find something to do to pass the time. Perhaps bickering with him every day is one of the joys of life.

"Is there something missing?" Garen suddenly became worried and thought of the Bronze Cross.

"Some things are indeed missing, including the Bronze Cross that you like." The old man said with a sad face, just in time to tell Gallon what he was most worried about.

"I'll wipe it!" Garen's expression changed. "Are you sure you really lost it?" Suddenly he seemed to remember something and said hurriedly: "No, maybe you missed it. The medal is so small and things are everywhere here. Maybe it was thrown in some corner?" He said Immediately cheered up again.

"No need to look for it, the medal is indeed lost." The old man shook his head, "I have already looked for it all before."

Garen was speechless. Medals are the key to improving his potential. Now he has searched all over Huaishan City. The Bronze Cross Medal in this store can absorb his potential. Now that this only source of energy has been cut off, Garen's originally planned bright future has suddenly become bleak.

The two squatted on the ground, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Then who are those two people?"

"They are federal detectives investigating this serial robbery case, Mr. Tali Mercury and Miss Silan. They came here specifically to investigate the case." The old man introduced in a low voice.

Generally, cases in this world are solved by detectives. Famous detectives and police stations have the right to inspect the scene immediately. Many cases also rely on detectives to solve them. Therefore, the status of famous detectives is still quite high in society.

Garen nodded and began to pay attention to the two people's actions while picking up the book.

The two people wandered around the store for a while before Tali Mercury broke the calm.

"This is Jinhuan's method, yes! It's exactly the same as Navis's method of committing crimes!" He was gently touching the edge of a table with his fingers, then put it under his nose and smelled it.

"This guy runs really fast!!" Miss Silan frowned and said,

"Si Lan, do you still remember what I said when we cracked Undine's Light last time?" Tali Mercury suddenly asked.

"What do you mean, sir?"

"Yes," he turned. "If the golden ring appears, please keep quiet and don't disturb him. This criminal is extremely vicious. Don't provoke him! Casualties may occur if you are not careful!! That guy is a retired officer of the special forces."

"No problem, no problem!!" "That's for sure!" The old man and Garen quickly stood up and answered,

"We didn't come here from Navis just for fun. This time, we will never let you escape again!!" Tali Mercury turned around and murmured, his eyes becoming extremely dark. "Si Lan! Notify Bai Ying and the others immediately, tell them not to investigate anymore, just say that we have caught the tail!"

"yes!"

Tali Mercury shook his windbreaker and strode out of the store. Silan quickly followed from behind.

"Sir, why don't you wait until White Eagle arrives before we act together? This is the first time we have encountered the danger of the golden ring among all the cases we have investigated."

"No, it's too late to wait until they come to check." Tali Mercury raised his head and looked at the fiery red sky in the evening, "Don't worry, nothing will happen. No matter how dangerous he is, he is just an ordinary person. As long as he is a human, he will There must be a weakness!”

"Isn't this too risky? After all, Jin Huan is an officer who has been trained in the special forces. Even without firearms, he can easily knock down five or six adults." Si Lan frowned behind him.

"Don't worry, we don't have to fight in person." Tali Mercury smiled gently and pinched Silan's face, who immediately blushed and lowered her head. "Okay, let's go back."

"yes."

The two strode away along the street one after the other.

In the store, Garen found a chair and sat down, looking at the backs of the two of them.

"Old man, who is this Jin Huan? Is he famous?"

"He's a serial robbery and murderer. Don't you read the recent newspapers? Robbery and murder happened in many places across the federation. Fortunately, old man, I didn't encounter the golden ring head-on." Old Man Geguo was scolded by his child just now, but now he immediately became happy again. "It is said that Jin Huan was once surrounded by the police station, and actually shot and wounded two policemen. He easily escaped from the siege, but was shot in the arm while fighting with the police."

As Garen listened to the old man's introduction, he vaguely felt that this was not the first time that the golden ring and the mercury in the tower were entangled in a game.

"Also in a manor in the countryside a few days ago, Detective Tali Mercury's friend reportedly struggled with the golden ring for a while and almost succeeded in keeping him." The old man added.

Garen squinted his eyes and happened to see Tali Mercury and Silan talking to a strong man in black at the end of the street. The man has a sharp gaze and strong muscles, and his actions show that he seems to have practiced fighting skills. "Is that that person?" He pointed at the strong man.

The old man looked over. "The friend Mr. Mercury mentioned is him, and he came to the store just now."

Garen nodded. Judging from the man's behavior, he could roughly tell the opponent's fighting level.

"Judging from his temperament and body shape, he is a stronger ordinary adult. He should have practiced military fighting skills. The possibility of special explosive skills cannot be ruled out."

As a martial arts instinct, he naturally compared the gap between himself and his opponent. "If I were to face him, I would definitely have insufficient actual combat experience. But my strength would definitely be stronger than his! The ultimate strength of an average adult converted into data is 0.5. And I have already exceeded this data. As long as I explode with all my strength and add special skills, in strength He is definitely far better than him. If that golden ring is similar to him."

Garen's attention fell on the skill bar below his vision again.

"Only I am different from others. I have attribute bonuses. My strength and body shape do not match at all." He has observed other people. It is the same situation in martial arts schools and other ordinary people. The stronger the body, the stronger the muscles, and the stronger the strength. Strong, basically no exceptions. The only difference is that he has a generally strong body shape, but when his strength explodes at full strength, it is enough to reach beyond the limit.

*************************

Bang! ! !

After a dull impact, the 180-pound sandbag was punched away by Gallon and swayed across the qualifying line.

His upper body was naked, and his white, strong muscles squirmed slightly on his body. He didn't wear gloves on his hands, so he hit them directly with his bare hands. At night, there was no one else in the room where the boxing strength was tested, only him.

"It's only been two weeks, and now I can easily reach 180 pounds with all my strength. Baiyun's secret method combined with explosive strength skills is really amazing."

Garen pulled the towel and wiped the sweat from his face.

"The Baiyun Secret Technique is worthy of being a secret secret method. It is the foundation of all martial arts in the Baiyun Martial Arts School. From the beginning to the present, those students who are in the same group as me are far behind me. The starting point and growth of the intermediate secret method The speed is much higher than others. In addition, when I used the secret method for the first time, the effect was best, I happened to upgrade the secret method and use it together. I guess I won't get such good results again in the future, but it can actually cooperate with that day. The medicinal fragrance reaches a level above 0.5 in one fell swoop.”

When I first learned the secret method, the secret method paper roll that the old man took out that day had a faint medicinal fragrance. It was the secret that could match the aroma of burning in the fireplace and intensify the secret method training.

He assumed the Baiyun Secret Technique pose again, and a stream of cold air slowly spread from his chest and abdomen to his entire body and limbs. All the muscles in his body were beating, as if matching the beating of his heart.

The first use of the secret method has the greatest adjustment to the body and improves physical fitness the most. Galleon had just adjusted that day, and his own strength had not yet been fully developed and he could easily reach more than 120 pounds. Not to mention that now that the strength has been improved again, the improved strength of the body can basically be fully exerted.

It is not difficult to easily break 180 pounds.

Standing on the secret skill pile, Garen focused his attention on the skill bar again.

"The explosive boxing technique in the martial arts gym can be regarded as a real fighting technique, not just some fancy training skills. As long as you successfully master the explosive boxing technique, you can truly start the rank test. Once you have a rank, you can become a teacher in the martial arts gym and get more A lot of money and then you can continue to collect jewelry that contains potential.”

Garen was thinking in his mind, and with a cruel heart, he simply turned his attention to the explosive fist technique.

"That's it!"

As his vision condensed, a stream of cool air suddenly rushed out of his mind and penetrated into the position of the explosive fist. The words "Not Beginner" at the back finally slowly jumped and suddenly turned into "Elementary".

Suddenly, Garen felt his body tighten, as if some tingling liquid was secreted from the inside of his body, slowly seeping out of his skin and covering the surface of his skin.

boom! !

There was a loud noise in his head.
