Chapter 1168: To be honest, thinking of titles is more troublesome than writing updates.

Chapter 1168 To be honest, it’s more troublesome to think of a title than to write an update.

 “I thought you were calling me for something so late at night.”

Stepping out of the elevator, Duanmu Huai yawned, looking bored.

 “The result is just for this little thing?”

 “How can this be considered a trivial matter?”

 Yutong Ayano followed Duanmuhuai with a speechless face. In fact, it's no wonder she is so nervous. It's not like AAA has never thought about researching this gun. After all, among other things, the technology of miniaturizing the reactor will make everyone drool after seeing it. If possible, AAA would dream of such technology!

 But... no!

The research director of AAA has explained to Ayano Yugiri and her mother that logically speaking, they do have the means to disassemble the plasma gun. However, there is a big problem - that is, this is a weapon!

 Weapons!

As we all know, many times new high-tech weapons are equipped with self-destruction devices to prevent them from being dismantled for research. Not to mention that the principle of this gun is still based on the reactor. You don't even need to do anything too complicated. As long as the reactor is out of control, this pistol will instantly turn into a nuclear bomb, destroying everything within a few hundred meters. Turn into ashes.

So the question becomes, should we take this risk?

After discussing it with her mother, Yugiri Ayano finally decided not to take such a risk.

The reason is very simple. If this gun is a rare thing like an unearthed relic, then AAA will risk its life to get it. But as of now, this gun is entirely a creation of the Tribunal. It was thrown casually from Duanmu Huai to Yugiri Ayano without even intending to go back to look at it. It is very likely that the Tribunal has mastered this manufacturing technology and is doing it. No matter what, they are sold by the pound.

This also means that the Inquisition is likely to have many similar weapons. In this case, the risk is not worth taking. Rather than operating this kind of aircraft behind the scenes, it is better to establish a good relationship with the Inquisition directly. The latter is obviously safer and has better control.

As for why they asked Duanmu Huai to come to the door instead of sending the gun themselves, everyone was really too nervous. Especially after knowing that this was basically a nuclear bomb, no one with a big heart would dare to run around holding it. So it’s better to ask the other party to come over in person and accept this magical power.

 “Wait, wait! Is that so?”

“It is also very possible that she is the dead daughter of the factory owner.”

"Yes, in fact, if we guessed correctly, these witches were transformed from these girls."

 No matter what, at least the responsibility is no longer on AAA's side.

"Miyo Honda, 11 years old, the cause of death is unknown. She attended Yagi Elementary School. She was introverted and rarely interacted with others. Her father, Tetsuo Honda, was a famous painter. Miyo Honda was influenced by her father to learn painting since she was a child. I once wrote in my composition She wanted to be a picture book artist in the future. Later, her right hand was injured due to a traffic accident. She recovered after treatment in the hospital, and she..."

“At present, we suspect that the dead girls were not killed by witches.”

I have to say that Qian Shu was a little surprised when he heard this.

Duanmuhuai casually returned the tablet to Yugiri Ayano and snorted coldly. Qian Shu, who was following along, looked at this and that curiously, with a look of confusion on his face.

Before Yugiri Ayano could finish speaking, Duanmuhuai interjected, while Yugiri Ayano paused and nodded.

 “It’s done.”

 “What’s going on? What are you talking about?”

Hearing Duanmuhuai's inquiry, Yutong Ayano immediately took out a tablet and handed it over. Duanmuhuai took the tablet and slid it, and then saw a photo and detailed records appearing on it.

 “You also like to draw with crayons, right?”

"Yes, so...could it be that the witch we killed yesterday was..."

Hearing this, Qian Shu almost jumped up.

 “How is what I asked you to do?”

"Why?"

 “Isn’t it?”

“There’s a high probability that this little girl didn’t run away.”

So when Ayano Yugiri accompanied Duanmu Huai to AAA's underground secret warehouse, and watched the other party casually pick up the gun and stuff it into his clothes, he was relieved.

“In other words, the witch we killed in the factory that day...”

The reason Duanmuhuai had this speculation was because after meeting Editor Tengchuan, he also asked Editor Tengchuan about the girl. As a result, Duanmuhuai learned about the factory owner's daughter from Editor Tengchuan. He is very handy and loves knitting. He once gave a sweater and gloves he knitted by himself to editor Tengchuan's niece as a birthday gift.

Of course, it was just a casual mention for Editor Tengchuan, but for Duanmu Huai, who had fought in the witch barrier, he naturally became interested in it immediately.

However, Duanmuhuai did not make a judgment immediately at that time. After all, there was only one example, which was not enough to support the judgment.

 But now a second case has appeared...well, so far this is still 100%.

The girl who loved knitting died, and everything in the witch's enchantment that appeared looked like it was cut and knitted from cloth. The girl who liked to draw with crayons died, and the next witch boundary appeared with crayon monsters - it can't be said to be a coincidence once or twice.

"Wait, that is to say, those children were not killed by witches, but became witches after death... Ugh... Although I can understand it, but in this case, why did those children die? Was it suicide? "

At this time, Qian Shu also reacted, but soon, she raised another question.

 Yes, this is also the biggest problem now.

 Judging from the collected intelligence data, the girl turned into a witch after death, and then created a barrier to use the witch's kiss to manipulate others to commit suicide. This can be confirmed by data analysis.     However, a new problem arises.

Then how did these girls die?

Whether it was the factory owner’s daughter, editor Tengchuan’s niece, or the girl Duanmu Huai and Yugiri Ayano were investigating this time, the cause of death was unknown.

 At this time, it’s time to ask professionals for answers.

 "Ki Geng, what do you think... Wow?!"

Duanmu Huai turned his head and looked at Mu Geng who was following him like a ghost, but he was almost frightened - the pink-haired girl who was following him had dead eyes, just like that. Staring at him silently without saying a word, he was like a persistent ghost behind him.

 “What are you doing? Are you sleepwalking?”

“I thought Miss Duanmu had forgotten me.”

He stared at Duanmu Huai without blinking, the expression of Mu Geng in front of him still looked gloomy and terrifying.

"Trick me into taking the bait with sweet words, and then throw me aside, forget it... Anyway, I am such an easy woman to deal with. I know that Miss Duanmu will not take me to heart. At most, it will only be like this. When it is useful, He will come to me only when he is done with it, and he will throw me aside when he is done with it. Yes, that’s it..."

 “What nonsense are you talking about.”

Hearing Mu Geng's thoughts, Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes speechlessly. Why is this woman so troublesome? I asked you to sign a contract, isn't it just to use you? Do you think I am just picking up kittens and puppies from the street when I have nothing to do?

"Nothing... Ahem, um, do you become a witch after death? Although I haven't seen what a witch looks like, but this situation is very rare."

“Is that so? In the work I’m responsible for, it’s not uncommon for demon-possessed people to turn into monsters.”

Hearing Kisara's answer, Yugiri Ayano next to her stared at her warily - this was normal, after all, what appeared in front of her was a demon, and a very powerful demon at that.

“That’s because the human body cannot withstand the power of the devil, so it will actively mutate to be able to withstand the power of the devil. But according to you, there is no mutation in the bodies of those girls.”

 “This... seems to be true.”

If there was a variation, it wouldn’t be written “unknown cause of death”.

"Strictly speaking, mutations in the soul are actually very rare. After all, the fragility of the body is understandable, but the soul... Wanting to distort the soul requires a fairly strong emotion."

 “Strong feelings?”

"Hate, despair, anger...and it must be to a degree that is enough to completely destroy the personality and soul. Otherwise, no matter how the soul of an average person mutates, it is impossible to become a monster."

 “Isn’t this your devil’s specialty?”

Hearing this, Yugiri Ayano couldn't help but mocked.

 “To lure humans into depravity, drive them into despair, and then eat them up.”

 “Make no mistake.”

Facing Yugiri Ayano’s ridicule, Kisara obviously would not just surrender.

"In fact, most of the time, demons don't need to do anything at all. They just need to watch from the sidelines. After all, you humans have enough malice towards yourself. All we have to do is push them when they are hesitant. It’s just a handful, it’s you humans who push them to the edge... Pain, pain, pain!"

However, before Mu Geng finished speaking, he saw Duanmu Huai stretching out his small hand and pressing Mu Geng's Tianling Cap.

"Shut up, Ki Geng. Maybe you are right, but being destroyed by humans and being destroyed by demons are two different things. Even if humans are despicable and cunning, it is not the demons' turn to cause trouble. Humans' own affairs , mankind will solve it on its own. Anyone who tries to interfere in human affairs on this basis, whether it is a demon or a god, will not be allowed by the Tribunal. Please don't let me hear such heretical words again, understand?"

 “Ming, Ming, understand...”

 Seeing Mu Geng nodding vigorously with tears in his eyes, Duanmu Huai let go of his hand.

Looking at this scene, Qian Shu and Yugiri Ayano beside them couldn't help but whisper to each other.

 “What Xiao Ai said is really domineering.”

“I heard her say that the Tribunal is human supremacy before, but I still didn’t understand what it meant, but now I understand...”

It’s no wonder that the two of them were so emotional. Although Duanmu Huai told them before that the Inquisition was about human supremacy, they thought it meant the legitimacy and justice of human existence. After all, many religions are like this. Those who follow my teachings are good people, and those who do not listen to my teachings are evil people. Therefore, good people are higher than evil people...

As a result, they now understand that the Inquisition does not do such chores. It does not matter whether humans are good or bad. As long as they are humans, they will support them unconditionally. In turn, as long as they are not human, they are unconditionally opposed... From a certain perspective, there is no more extreme human supremacy than this.

It has to be said that it was only then that the two of them had a deep understanding of the existence of the Tribunal.

 But soon, they will discover that this is just the surface of the Inquisition.
