The Death Plan of a Hero of the Empire

This can also rule out that the black hand behind the scenes is not the evil spirit of glasses, and the evil spirit of glasses itself is a slave of an evil god.

And the black hand behind the scenes is looking for taboo books, which shows that he is very concerned about the evil god, and he may even be a servant of the evil god himself, but he is infiltrating and making trouble in a different way from the evil spirit of the glasses, and he knows the existence of the evil spirit of the glasses, trying to Look for the spectacle evil spirit.

And the breath of the glasses evil spirit is very similar to the breath of the happy potion.

"That is to say... the evil spirit behind the scenes is the happy medicine evil spirit? No, the happy medicine cultists are more appropriate."

After analysis, Lu Nier felt that the mastermind or pharmacist behind the scenes was very likely to be a cultist, and no matter how bad it was, he was also a person who had a lot to do with the cultist.

Perhaps, after the power of the fifth child of the Finger family was purified by Lu Nier, he had already noticed the changes in the fifth child, and asked the fifth child to pass on the news of the opening of the restaurant, or it was a well-dug pit to attract them to jump into it on purpose of.

Thinking of this, Lu Nil suddenly became vigilant.

At this moment, Li Jie came back in a hurry, looking very anxious, and said to Lu Nier.

"Elaine is gone."

"Gone?"

"Well, I was at the vegetable market with her before, and when Lila called me back, I made an appointment with her to wait for me nearby, but after I went, she was gone."

"what?!"

"It's impossible for her to go away by herself, so I think she may be in some danger now."

"It's all my fault. I should have brought her back with me earlier." Sarah said with self-blame.

"Now is not the time to talk about this. The only people who will kidnap her are the men of the intermediary, except for the Finger family. Let's go to find them separately. I will go to the Finger family, Emma, ​​and you will go to the intermediary." Lu Neil made a quick decision.

"it is good."

Just as they were about to go out and split up into two groups, there was a knock on the door.

"Mr. Ardiou? Here is a letter from Miss Elaine."

Lu Nier hurried to the door, opened the door, and saw a timid little boy.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Adiu?"

"it's me."

"This is the letter Miss Elaine asked me to give you."

"Who asked you to deliver the letter? Is it a girl?"

"No, it was a gentleman who gave me ten dollars and asked me to give you this letter, saying it was from Miss Elaine."

"What does he look like? How tall? How fat? How thin? What does his voice sound like? How old is he?"

"what……"

"Say."

Lu Nier directly took out a hundred imperial coins and handed them to the children.

"let me see……"

Seeing the imperial coins, the little boy thought for a while and roughly made gestures.

"Probably about the same height as you, a little thin, I didn't see his face, he is wearing a mask, his voice... is about the same as my father, and he should be about the same age as my father."

Lu Nier looked at the eyes of the little boy, put one hundred yuan in his palm, and then took the letter, Li Jie and Sarah also gathered around to read it together.

The content of the letter is nothing, it just means that the restaurant will open tomorrow, and I hope Adiu and Miss Emma will come to support her. If they don't come, he can't guarantee the safety of Elaine.

It was a very straightforward threatening letter.

When Lu Nier saw the letter, he was silent for a while, and squeezed it into a ball.

"There's no need to look for it."

Well, now we can only wait until tomorrow.

"Do you have anything to say?" Lunil asked.

"Only tomorrow." Sarah said.

She was a little surprised that she was not mentioned in the letter, and she was completely ignored, obviously she is also with Lu Nier now.

"I'm going to contact my captain to see if the captain and the bureau can provide any help." Lu Nier said, "As for you..."

Lu Nier looked at Sarah, thinking about her performance during this time.

"Since your butler is alive, I think you can meet up with your butler first. With his help, and your superb disguise technique, I think your safety should be fine."

"No, I'll go to the banquet with you. You've helped me so much. I'm not someone who likes to owe favors."

"I can't guarantee your safety."

"I do not need."

"As you like."

After Lu Nier finished speaking, Li Jie spoke.

"Then let me go with you to contact the captain. We have to be fully prepared. Miss Elaine's life may be in danger."

"I know, let's go."

After finishing speaking, Lunier and Li Jie set off. It is easy to find Alonia. Just find any homeless man on the street, and he is one of Alonia's current subordinates.

Before, because they wanted to catch the pharmacist, the two of them were a little bit scrupulous about whether doing so would affect Alonya's lurking, but now there is no need.

Alonia has now become the leader of the homeless people in the neighborhood.

"Elaine was kidnapped?"

Hearing the news, Alonia also became serious. Although she didn't know Elaine well, as an investigator, she had the obligation to help innocent people.

"I see. Since the kidnapper is likely to appear at the opening of the restaurant tomorrow, I will contact the rest of the investigators. We will all gather at the restaurant tomorrow and be on standby at any time."

Chapter 266 The Price of Happiness (20)

Lu Nier didn't express all his guesses, after all [spiritual perception] and the evil specter of glasses were things he couldn't explain.

But he still picked the key points and said everything that needs to be said, such as happy medicine, the mysterious person behind the Finger family, the connection between the pharmacists, and the mysterious person behind the Finger family who drove the Finger family to collect taboo evil. classic news.

Alonia, who heard the news, believed in Lu Nier, because she is not the leader of the homeless these days. Combined with some information she got, it seems that the information provided by Lu Nier is more reliable.

So Alonya added another prohibition during the operation, that is, no free food is allowed, because those free foods may be mixed with happiness medicine.

And pay attention to the first time to see if there are any abnormal changes in the people who ate the free dishes. If there are any, they must immediately reveal their identities to prevent the restaurant from opening.

After talking about the case and assigning tasks, Alonia planned to bid farewell to Lunier.

Before leaving, Alonia asked a serious question.

"That black widow, is she trustworthy?"

Lu Nier thought about the relationship between him and Sarah these days. Although the older lady occasionally behaved inappropriately, there was nothing particularly suspicious, and she was always giving him advice.

"I don't know, but since I found her, I will take responsibility if the problem lies with her in the end."

The next day, or since last night, Lu Nier did not stop for a moment, and went to inquire about the restaurant.

For example, who are the employees in the restaurant now, what kind of ingredients the restaurant buys, and whether there is any abnormality in the restaurant.

All the restaurants bought by the Finger's family have been checked, not even the Finger's, because apart from the Finger's, most of the other restaurants in the neighborhood have also been hostile takeovers.

In terms of ingredients, they are all purchased from the market, and there is no problem with ordinary ingredients.

In terms of employees, many employees of the original restaurants have left, but just recently, these restaurants suddenly hired some chefs at a high price, and it seems that they are planning to reopen.

Now it seems that today is the opening day.

First of all, it can be ruled out that the black hand behind the scenes wants to operate normally. After all, this is really stupid. After such a waste of effort, he did not hesitate to spread and sell a lot of happiness medicine, and the result is to open these restaurants?

This is obviously impossible.

Whatever his purpose, the result is unlikely to be good.

And he probably didn't expect that Lunier was actually an investigator, and he could use his authority to spread the news, making his idea of ​​using the restaurant to achieve his goals come to naught.

However, because they were afraid that they would startle the enemy and let the black hand behind the scenes do something irreversible, after deliberation, Lu Nier and the others finally decided to wait and see what happened.

Lunier got up early and looked back and forth around several restaurants.

Since yesterday, Alonia has assigned the restaurants that Lunier and Li Jie will investigate today, and the other investigators have also selected the restaurants to go to.

Because the news that the restaurant was open for free all day today was deliberately spread by the mastermind behind the scenes, even though it was very early, the stand was still full of people.

If unsurprisingly, by the time these free restaurants open, they will be full.

Free things, even if the quality is substandard, will still attract many people.

While Lu Nier was waiting, these restaurants finally opened, and because of the advance publicity, many people rushed into them in an instant.

Lu Nier also walked into one of the restaurants, and then saw restaurant employees maintaining order, letting people sit on chairs and ordering one by one.

Lu Nier randomly picked a seat and sat down, and soon several strangers he didn't know sat down with him.

They chatted and laughed about the free meals, guessed the quality of the free meals, and said how much they planned to eat today.

Lu Nier didn't know if the man behind the scenes was paying attention to him, but he didn't feel like he was being watched at all.

Lu Nier ordered a mashed potato casually, and then sat there and waited.

Soon, as the first free meal was served, Lu Nier observed it very carefully, but did not find anything unusual from the meal.

In fact, from last night to now, these restaurants have not only been sneaked and searched by him in the middle of the night, they have even been monitored by him all night.

There are no suspicious people or things coming in or out of these restaurants, and even the pre-prepared ingredients are fine.

In addition, those recruited chefs and employees, after questioning, also said that they were attracted by the special people hired by the Finger family with high remuneration.

Due to the large number of people, the serving of food was relatively slow. Lu Nier had sensed every dish that was served, but these dishes were all ordinary, and there was no abnormality at all.

Although the restaurant was very noisy due to the large number of customers, the situation was very calm. At least from now on, nothing strange happened at all.

"Could it be in another restaurant?" Lunier thought.

Perhaps most of the restaurants are just smoke bombs behind the scenes, but in fact there is only one of them that can really achieve his purpose.

Thinking of this, Lu Nier couldn't sit still anymore, he got up and stood up, and someone immediately filled his seat.

Lu Nier didn't care, he squeezed out of the restaurant directly from the crowd, and walked towards another restaurant that was open for free today.

He believes that if the man behind the scenes has any conspiracy, then it is most likely to be inseparable from the happy medicine. He guesses that the most likely thing is that the man behind the scene is trying to mix the happy medicine in the free dishes, so that everyone who comes to the restaurant Everyone who dines is poisoned by the happy medicine.

However, from the looks of it now, the people who ate the dishes were very normal, and there was nothing abnormal about them, and Lu Nier didn't sense any strange smell from those dishes.

Lu Nier changed one after another, and the business of other free restaurants was also very hot, with no seats left. Except for the local people, everyone else came to watch the wind. It is estimated that this matter even made the newspaper.

Lu Nier focused on sensing some of the free dishes that had been served, but he still didn't find any strange smell inside.

In this way, Lu Nier went around in a circle and finally returned to the restaurant he was in charge of.

"Could it be that this is done on purpose today, so that we can relax our vigilance and delay with us by doing nothing?"

Lu Nier began to guess the psychology behind the scenes.

Like the story of the wolf coming.

The child lied for the first time that wolves attacked the flock, which attracted other people to help him drive away the wolves, but they found nothing when they arrived.

Then he lied the same way the second time, and the others still believed and followed suit.

The third time the wolves really came, and he lied again, but no one came.

Maybe the black hand behind the scenes is using a similar method, first revealing that he opened the free restaurant to cause trouble, and lured investigators like Lu Nier over.

In the end, he didn't do any bad things, just hold free restaurant events.

It was like this all day long, and of course Lu Nier and the others got nothing all day, so they let down their vigilance.

This continued for a few days, and after Lu Nier and other investigators had to leave here, he suddenly came out to make trouble.

This possibility is not without.

It's just that Lu Neil doesn't understand why he kidnapped Elaine, why did he attract himself?

This makes absolutely no sense.
