Arknights is too real, right?
Chapter 700 Coldness
Meili Aromatherapy Store.
Xia Feng already knew the full story of Melanza's disappearance from Medek.
Just as he had expected, this was a kidnapping.
Medek's vanilla business is reasonable and legal, and there are no contraband in the products of the spice processing factory. However, a certain spice in the product can become a raw material for contraband.
In fact, this thing is easy to understand. Just like processing source stone, it is not illegal for you to sell and buy light manganese ore separately, but it is illegal if you use light manganese ore to process source stone.
But Medec's spice is somewhat special, because it is the core raw material of hallucinogenic powder and cannot be replaced.
Over the years, Medek has had a very stable cooperation with the Sislo Chamber of Commerce. Maybe Medek knew what the Sislo Chamber of Commerce wanted to prepare with this spice, but he never asked.
As for the price, it is only the wholesale price of spices, and there is not a penny more than that.
This is the quality of a qualified businessman. Medek is no longer short of money. He just wants to maintain the family business in a low-key and stable manner and give his wife and children a comfortable home.
However, just a few months ago, the demise of the Crown family shocked the entire north. Ordinary members of the nobility were murdered because they offended others. This kind of thing still happened, but it was very rare for the entire family to be exterminated.
On the third day after the demise of the Krone family, Gul from the Sislo Chamber of Commerce also disappeared.
This information made Medek smell something unusual. With his IQ, he quickly thought that the demise of the Krone family might be related to Gur.
He immediately decided to completely stop cooperation with the Sislo Chamber of Commerce. Although he was not involved in any hallucinogenic powder business, if the Supervision Office traced the raw material channels, there might still be some unnecessary trouble.
Medek didn't want to be distracted. He just wanted to be with his wife and children and be an ordinary spice merchant.
However, some ships are difficult to get off once you get on it. Even if you feel that you are not on the ship at all, others will already unilaterally think that you are on the ship.
Even if Gul disappears, the Sislo Chamber of Commerce will not allow Medek to stop spice cooperation, because once the supply of goods is cut off, the production of hallucinogenic powder will cease.
After hearing the whole story of the incident, Xia Feng sat on the sofa and looked thoughtful.
"Mr. Medek, so you unilaterally stopped cooperation?"
Medek sighed helplessly.
"Yes, I ordered the factory to stop shipping, but I underestimated the methods of those gangsters. They actually kidnapped my daughter."
Xia Feng looked at Medek quietly.
"Why didn't you call the police?"
"I'm afraid."
"Afraid that your daughter is in danger? Didn't the other party ask for ransom or anything like that?"
Medek took out a note from his coat pocket.
"This is the letter that was thrown into my yard the day after my daughter was kidnapped. It said that as long as I continued to supply spices, my daughter would be fine. Otherwise, they did not ask for a penny in ransom."
Xia Feng stared at the note and said with some doubts.
"Then when will they send your daughter back?"
"It's not mentioned above, which is why I'm anxious."
Xia Feng understood. To put it simply, this was not called kidnapping at all, but "holding the emperor hostage to order the princes."
But the problem is that Melanza is not the emperor, and she still has to go to school. Even if she doesn't go to school, it's not like that for you to tie up a little girl every day.
After leaving Medek's shop, Xia Feng stood on the road and took out his phone and called Wei Na.
"Dudu.du."
The phone rang for a long time but no one answered. Now that the weather is bad, it is common for phone signal problems to occur.
Xia Feng organized his thoughts.
Now that the matter about Melantha has been clarified, it was indeed Gur who did it. In other words, the target of the action has been unified now. If Gur is caught, all problems will be solved.
Since he couldn't contact Weina, he could only go back to the small hotel in the suburbs and wait for Weina to come back or contact him.
Walking on the streets of Gusha City, gusts of cold wind blew across his cheeks. Xia Feng tightened his scarf, quickened his pace in the cold wind, and left the city center.
On the way back, Xia Feng thought while walking.
He had never heard of this Gul before, but judging from his actions, he was a ruthless man with means and courage. Of course, in his line of work, he would not be able to sit in this position without being outstanding.
Xia Feng thinks this is a good thing, because the bolder and more capable Gur is, the more proof that he dares to commit such a major case as the destruction of the Krone family.
If such a heinous person is caught, causing disaster to the country and the people, Princess Weilin, the Yuan Council, and the Supervisory Office will probably not question whether the murderer is true.
As they walked, Xia Feng had already left the city.
The houses in sight were low and dilapidated. After walking through an empty street, he passed the entrance of a remote alley.
Just when Xia Feng was trying to figure out whether he was going the wrong way, suddenly, his left eye twitched.
A deep and cold breath was caught imperceptibly, and it would have been ignored if no one was nearby.
Xia Feng stopped and stood quietly.
This breath didn't belong to any living thing. To be precise, it didn't belong to any living thing on land. He couldn't tell wrongly. It was the breath of the deep sea!
He turned around quickly, but there was no one in sight. The surrounding houses were so dilapidated that they seemed uninhabited, and only the cold wind blew across his face.
Suddenly, the faded aura became strong again. This time, Xia Feng accurately identified the direction.
Looking at the dark alley on the right, Xia Feng put his left hand on the handle of the Shenyue Sword.
This sudden change undoubtedly disrupted Xia Feng's arrangements.
His top priority is to find Gul. With Vina's rough style, Gul himself may have noticed it, so the action must be accelerated.
But this is Gusha City, and even more so Victoria. Although it is important to capture Gur, he cannot ignore this sudden deep sea atmosphere no matter what.
The black and white twins have reached the middle stage of their run. With his current strength, this is not considered a risk.
Taking steps forward, Xia Feng slowly walked into the alley cautiously.
This alley is not as narrow as it looks from the outside. After turning a few turns, it is not a dead end, but extends in all directions in this abandoned civilian area.
Xia Feng walked very fast. The nearby houses were all deserted. He didn't need to use his eyes to observe the surroundings. He just moved in the direction with the strongest aura based on his senses.
10 minutes later.
Although this aura seemed to be concealed by all his efforts, Xia Feng still discovered the target with the sharp insight into energy of the black and white twins.
At the end of the alley, a tall figure wearing a black fur coat appeared in sight.
This person should be a woman from the back. At this time, she was standing with her back to Xia Feng. It seemed that she was also aware that Xia Feng was following her.
Holding the Shenyue Sword tightly, Xia Feng walked over slowly and stood about 5 meters away from this person.
Looking at this person's back coldly, Xia Feng spoke in a deep voice.
"who are you."
Hearing Xia Feng's voice, the man put his hands in his coat pockets and slowly turned around.
In line with her slender and tall figure, this person's appearance is that of a woman.
The exquisite facial features and the black velvet hat matching the fur coat make her temperament very noble.
But no matter how carefully she dressed up, she could not hide her pale skin and the cold aura emanating from her body.
A gentle female voice came.
"It's really you."
Xia Feng stared at her face closely.
"you know me?"
Under the velvet hat, white hair hung on both sides of her face. The woman calmly put her hands in her pockets and said.
"Of course, after all, you took my noble title."
Xia Feng was stunned, and his brain couldn't react in time.
"What?"
"My name is Hela."
A gust of wind blew, and the alley was quiet.
Hearing the name mentioned by the woman in black, Xia Feng's eyes widened in shock, Hela, Hela?
In the arena of the swordsmanship competition, Skadi chopped a strange man into pieces. If he remembered correctly, that man was called Hela!
The shock lasted for less than a second, and Xia Feng narrowed his eyes.
"Are you kidding me? Hela is dead."
The woman who calls herself Hela has a playful look on her face.
"Oh, it was just my substitute who died. I underestimated the strength of the Victoria people and sent a waste."
Before Xia Feng could react, she continued.
"Oh, by the way, although this is our first meeting, I have heard about you from Kuroyuki's mouth, in Sami."
The continuous messages made Xia Feng more and more shocked.
Kuroyuki, this name instantly reminded him of something.
In the natural disaster area of Sami, the girl who summoned black snowflakes took the lives of hundreds of Sami soldiers with a snap of her fingers.
In the subsequent battle, the girl named Heixue was able to easily suppress him, who was holding the Shenyue Sword and whose black and white twins had been running for the 28th day.
If Scar Emperor hadn't suddenly rushed out to save him, he would undoubtedly have died in the hands of Heixue.
Seeing Xia Feng's solemn expression, Hela smiled playfully.
"It seems that you haven't forgotten Kuroyuki either. After all, anyone who can survive from that taciturn guy will be deeply impressed."
Xia Feng clenched his fists and squeezed out a sentence through his teeth.
"Who are you?"
Hela blinked lightly, slowly took her left hand out of her coat pocket, and opened her palm to Xia Feng with a smile on her face.
"Ding!"
A dark blue pendant fell from the palm and froze in mid-air.
Seeing the shape of this pendant, Xia Feng understood.
Back in Sami's natural disaster area, Kuroyukihime was wearing the same pendant on his bare ankle.
And on the bridge at the junction of North and South Sami, the man he killed also wore the same pendant.
The shape of this pendant is not complicated, nor is it difficult to understand. In Xia Feng's impression, it is a multi-legged deep sea creature.
