Two Cities, I build mecha in Picheng

Chapter 49 "Guests" in the Shadows

Led by Caitlin, Li Lin and Jess searched for more than half an hour in the empty and abandoned winery.

Finally, in a large room that seemed to be a worker's dormitory, they finally found the Gilamans, who were tied to a chair in the corner, with their faces downcast, in a coma.

Caitlin's eyes turned red, and she hurried forward to check their situation.

Still breathing, they're alive!

Caitlin burst into tears, "Mom, Dad... that's great!"

She hurriedly took out a folding dagger that she carried with her when hunting in the wild from her pocket, and cut the ropes that bound them.

Li Lin stepped forward and crouched down, letting the Gilamans lean on him, and at the same time turned on [Data Thinking] to check their physical conditions:

【Name: Karina Gilaman】

[Personal status: slightly poisoned, lethargic]

【Effect】

【1. Lose 3 health points per minute, lasting for 4 hours and 24 minutes (non-fatal, the minimum drops to 227 health points). 】

[2. Completely lost consciousness and fell into a deep sleep for 6 hours and 48 minutes (cannot be awakened by external force)]

……

【Name: Erro Gilaman】

[Personal status: slightly poisoned, lethargic]

【Effect】

【1. Lose 1 health points per minute, lasting for 3 hours and 19 minutes (non-fatal, the minimum drops to 259 health points). 】

[2. Completely lost consciousness and fell into a deep sleep for 5 hours and 35 minutes (cannot be awakened by external force)]

They were not in too bad a condition, similar to those who had been poisoned in the Great Hall of Piltover Hall.

But the difference is that their "sleep" state cannot be awakened by external force.

Maybe the amount of pollen used in the Hypnotic Flower prepared by C is not the same.

Li Lin thought vividly.

It's just that Caitlin doesn't have the system panel and [data-based thinking] skills, so she doesn't know the current state of her parents.

After calling them many times and patting them on the face, she couldn't wake them up, she was a little anxious: "Why can't I wake them up..."

"It should be that the poison used by C is different. Don't worry, Mrs. Karina and Mr. Erro will definitely be fine."

Li Lin wanted to pat Caitlin on the shoulder to comfort her, but it was inconvenient for him to wear power armor, so he gave up.

"Let's send them home as soon as possible. It's not safe here. The most important thing is to let the doctor check them up after they go back."

As a political and plutocratic family in Piltover, Gilaman's family is equipped with complete top-notch medical facilities and professional medical staff, no less than the largest hospital in the city.

Jess immediately answered and persuaded: "Li Lin is right Caitlin, the next thing is not convenient for us to deal with, let the law enforcement officers handle it."

"I see."

Caitlin wiped away the tears on her face and nodded, her voice choked with sobs.

"Some of the law enforcement officers should be dealing with the batch of alchemy potions from Silko. Let's find someone to report to Sheriff Grayson first, and leave the rest to her."

……

……

More than three hours passed, and many people gathered at Gilaman's house in the early morning.

After learning that Gilamann and his wife had been rescued, all congressmen including Heimerdinger came to Gilamann's house.

They gathered in the drawing room of the main house, and the butler and servants were busy entertaining them.

Sheriff Grayson and her lieutenant Marcus stood in the corner of the hall.

After being reprimanded by the congressmen just now, they were a little embarrassed.

Nearly two-thirds of the law enforcement officers in Piltover's Law Enforcement Office were sent out, but Miss Gilaman and two craftsmen from their family found the Gilaman couple first.

A large group of people graduated from the police academy and specialize in handling criminal cases. The ability of the police to protect the safety of citizens is even worse than that of the eldest lady of a family.

This big mouth slapped all the law enforcement officers of the Picheng Police in the face, making them feel extremely embarrassed.

Since the law enforcement officers hadn't done much to find the Gilamans, Sheriff Grayson had to make up for it in other ways.

For example, the law enforcement officers confiscated all of Silko's finished and semi-finished shimmer potions, and also captured the part of his men who were injured by Li Lin, Kaitlyn and Jess who did not escape.

In addition, C's body has been recovered by law enforcement officials. Under the strict requirements of Sergeant Grayson, C's identity was quickly investigated.

Kayinna Verizel, a Shuriman who escaped to Piltover four years ago when her merchant ship was plundered by Noxus.

Over the years, Kayinna has worked odd jobs on the streets. In a watch shop where she worked the longest, because the young boss was handsome and friendly, she soon fell in love with the boss.

However, during a surprise inspection by a law enforcement officer later, the boss was arrested and put in prison for secretly selling the Hex technology device researched by Gilaman's family.

Later, he committed suicide because he couldn't bear the bullying and harsh environment of other prisoners in the prison.

When Kayinna heard the news, she hated Gilaman's house ever since.

The law enforcement officers were verified by the warden at the prison that there was indeed such a prisoner who committed suicide.

At the same time, they also visited the surrounding area of ​​the watch shop in the southern urban area, and interviewed those who still remembered the incident, temporarily revealing Kayinna's identity.

The path of revenge for a Shurima girl who was blinded by love...

However, this is only a brief summary for the MPs.

As for other details, further investigation is needed. After all, a small Kayinna is not enough to withstand the anger of the councilors.

Recently, some alchemy barons in the bottom city resold the arms that they had tried to get from the upper city, which touched the interests of the Polpok and Worthladon families.

Under the request and hint of the two councilors, the law enforcement officers will severely crack down on Zaun recently, and even blame these ignorant guys...

In a short period of time, this very important case will not be closed for the time being.

In the living room, members of parliament were chatting about what happened tonight that left them with lingering fears, and they cared and greeted each other.

Before they knew it, the topic of their conversation turned to the power armor developed by Li Lin and Jess' transformable hammer.

Although the other congressmen except Heimerdinger basically have their own ghosts in their hearts, at least they are quite harmonious on the surface.

Especially after what happened tonight.

On the other side, the results of the physical examination of the Gilamans came out soon.

As the only daughter of Senator Gilamann, Caitlin is obliged to entertain the guests of the Senator who come to their house as "guests".

After getting the test results, she had no time to accompany her sleeping parents or rest, and returned to the living room of the main house non-stop to socialize.

Jess was not very interested in politics, and he was afraid that his mother would worry about him, so he greeted Caitlin and went home.

Li Lin was worried that these councilors might use the pretext of visiting Gilaman and his wife to inquire about his brilliant power armor tonight.

Therefore, he was waiting with Caitlin for the test results of the Gilamans and his wife, and he also explained to her and hid in his room.

However, when he just returned to the room and locked the door, before he had time to breathe a sigh of relief, the system panel suddenly gave him an unexpected reminder:

【Congratulations!You have contacted ten heroes, the level has been increased by two levels, and you have gained 2 skill points! 】

In this room, there are other people!

At this moment, a woman's voice sounded slightly familiar, with a little curiosity in her tone:
"Li Lin, the talented craftsman of Gilaman's family, I finally have a chance to meet you."
