Overturned Tower

"Because there is no trace at all, there is a problem. Because this means that Xiao Liuli is deliberately avoiding the person code-named 'Blue Song Robin'."

Delphinium replied in the affirmative.

Russell's pupils shrank slightly.

He noticed a key piece of information.

Delphinium paused, obviously guessing where Russell saw it.

"You should have seen it too...Little Liuli first appeared on Tianen Entertainment's reality show "Teens and Girls Listen to Me". This is a program that pretends to be a reporter and randomly interviews teenagers and girls on the street Some weird and funny questions, and a program to observe the other party's reaction.

"When Xiao Liuli first appeared, she had an 'idol feeling separated from reality' and a pure and lovely appearance. Passers-by thought she was an 'idol participating in a reality show', so she deliberately cooperated with each other. This mutual mutual The feeling of testing made her highly praised.

"After becoming famous that time, she really participated in a talent show featuring amateur singers, and made her debut as an idol with her solid singing skills. At that time, she had pink ears and hair, but the tip hadn't passed yet. Astralization.

"Idol action lasted for two years, she retired and became a reporter. She has become the 'Little Liuli Full of Vigor'..."

Having said that, Delphinium was silent for a moment.

She spoke again: "The recording time of the first reality show was in November 1199, three years ago.

"In February of the same year, an underground singer code-named 'Blue Robin' was involved in a car accident in the downtown area and disappeared suddenly.

"But I called the chip data of the Executive Department and confirmed that the 'Blue Robin' has not died so far..."

Maybe it's because Torvatos is still here.

When she said this, she didn't continue talking.Instead, he signaled Russell to watch for himself next.

But being concealed openly, Tovatus didn't say anything, just smiled with his hands behind his back, and turned his head to meet the silent inferior.

The two sides looked at each other for a while, and the inferior one quietly looked away.

"...Ah, I have a little business to deal with. Minister, can I leave for a while?"

After Russell finished reading the remaining materials, he thought for a while, raised his head with a business smile, and asked politely.

Delphinium didn't ask Russell what he was going to do.

Hearing the title "Minister", she looked up at Russell.

After the four eyes met, she replied in a deep voice: "Okay. Then we will wait here, and we happen to need to discuss some details with this Mr. Director.

"You should have contact information for the inferior, right.

"Then, if you can't come back immediately, remember to send him a message to report. We will leave together after you come back."

Russell nodded.

That, he realized, was a euphemism.

——The delphinium's implication is that if something happens, call for help.They will wait here until they are contacted and will not leave.

"Remember what I said earlier."

Tovatos added with a smile: "My promise is always valid.

"When you are disappointed with the company, come to me."

Chapter 50 Twisted Love and Hate

Russell took the elevator again and returned to the first floor of the Hive Nightclub.

There were more people in the elevator when going down than when going up... But fortunately, this time I didn't meet the big sister who likes to catch people's tails.

Russell wasn't wearing a mask.But just from his back, it can be seen that he is obviously a teenager... a boy.

Boys who can enter the Hive nightclub, whether they wear masks or not, can actually be regarded as laughing masks.

And the person wearing the smiling mask is part of the customer's "user experience" of the crying mask.

Since it is positioned as an "entertainment product", it is very reasonable for people to strike up a conversation while walking on the road-no wonder people.

Russell thought quietly.

The situation is clearly not right.

Judging from that recording, the other party knew the bad guy and the delphinium very well...but he didn't know anything about himself.

If we start from this perspective... Is there something that the inferior and the delphinium don't know, but what they may know?

That's what Russell just learned from the Tower of Babel about the emerging mage organization in the lower city.

——Behind the Xiaoliuli incident is a new mage association called the Veil of Ignorance.

Now that I know this.

Then, conversely infer... Is the suspected demon trace on Xiao Liuli related to the veil of ignorance?

Russell thought, the answer should be no.

Originally, Russell believed that there should be a demon behind the kidnapping of Xiao Liuli, and it was he who infected Xiao Liuli with the devil's breath and lured the inferiors to assassinate him.

But looking back now, this possibility is really a little bit reluctant.

The demon first - how do they have a demon that is not detected until it hatches, and how do they control this demon from eating people and causing mass disappearances?

And the plan to lure the inferior to assassinate seems more like a random layout.There is not even any high-level supervision here, just throwing four sacrifices here.The iron mask enshrining the leader's will was also placed on the eighteenth floor instead of the first floor.

From this point of view.

Russell guessed that the leader's purpose was not to assassinate the inferior—although he said the same to Xiao Liuli and those four or five people, but the leader lied to them.His real purpose is still the inferior.And it was bad from the start.

He has a special preference for the bad guys... a kind of Gotham kind of preference.

——The real purpose of that person is to let the inferior kill this elf with his own hands.

Judging from the reactions of the elf and the inferior, he seemed to have had such an idea.

If you think about it from this "Gotham taste", Russell can vaguely guess the truth of the matter:

The bad guy may be different from his stinky face, he is a victim who really walked the path of justice.

And this kind of him, if he killed innocent people with his own hands in order to save others, he might kill himself to erase his criminal evidence.

As for the purpose... perhaps it is to keep the symbol of "inferior" from being tarnished.Or to prevent someone from being disappointed, or to prevent someone from thinking they've seen through him...it's all possible.

——However, if the inferior finds out that the child he killed was an elf.He can't kill himself.

If it is ordinary people who are killed, the inferior can indeed use suicide to forcibly escape the trial.After all, one life is exchanged for another.

However, the life weight of elves is different.

If the child he killed was an elf, this matter must be investigated to the end.

Then in the end, the suicide of the inferior will become "suicide in fear of crime".

So he has to live.

If Delphinium fails to crack it in the end and stays in the impression space, she will become a vegetable; if Delphinium is lucky and chooses to retreat before the third level and escapes, she may be forced to bear the crime...after all, Someone is responsible for this.

Then with the sense of responsibility of the inferior, he can't choose to escape - he must confess all crimes himself, bear all the responsibilities he can bear as much as possible, and become a murderer.

Moreover, the inferior will have to watch with his own eyes the victimized delphinium who becomes a vegetable or a responsible delphinium, and watch Russell, who has just become a hero, "die for him" in the assassination operation against him.He wants to survive and feel the regret of sacrificing his important companions on the way to practice "justice".

——All of these, interlocking and interlocking plans, are all for the purpose of torturing the inferior.

Such a strong hatred, such a vicious conspiracy.

Just thinking about it made Russell shudder.

Too twisted.

And would such a person really plan on such a simple result as "killing the inferior"?

Impossible.

For "that person" it is better for the inferior to be alive than to be dead.

Then, it is impossible for Xiao Liuli to be a trace of a demon that was intentionally contaminated.

Because this is just an idle move... The opponent knows that the inferior will never come, and it doesn't matter whether Russell dies or not.

All he needs is "Russell in danger" and needs the inferior to rescue the situation.

As for which demon to investigate and which task to perform, it doesn't matter.

Then, it doesn't make any sense to infect Xiao Liuli's breath.

This would only be a waste of a hidden good guy for no reason, and on the contrary, because of the importance of Xiao Liuli's identity, the inferior person might investigate in person.In this way his plan cannot be completed.

But what about the other way around?

It's Xiao Liuli who has shown signs of becoming a demon... So the other party planned to use waste and set up this situation?

While destroying Xiao Liuli in a logical manner, a wave of big ones will be given to the inferior.

The information that Minister Delphinium passed to Russell confirmed Russell's idea.

That was a lot of information about the underground singer code-named "Blue Robin".

"——At that time, Blue Robin's fiancée was also involved in a car accident with Blue Robin. She was a girl with long black hair and a pony as her soul relative. She was only 20 years old. Because she hadn't graduated from university , so there is no codename.

"But the girl did not disappear immediately, but received the most appropriate treatment and disappeared three months after being discharged from the hospital.

"It is worth noting that neither Blue Robin nor his fiancée's family is well-off. Back then, Blue Robin chose to become a resident singer, partly because of paying expensive college tuition for the girl. The girl's family simply couldn't afford it. Such an expensive treatment fee, but I can't find any loan and debt records. Therefore, it can be suspected that the blue songbird has reached an agreement with an organization to advance or make up for the treatment costs for the fiancée."

"Blue Robin" once sang in the Honeycomb Nightclub.

It's like the catwoman with the blue high ponytail that Russell saw in the lobby when he first came in.

At that time, he was still not famous, and he was completely different from the little Liuli who became popular in the entire Happy Island...

Yes.

"he".

The Blue Robin at that time was not the girl idol of today... but a genuine male.

His soul relative is not a fold-eared cat at all, but a blue robin.

Because the bluebird's instinct as a songbird is to sing.So he chose the way of music.

Chapter 51 The Ultramarine Cage

The record from Delphinium flashed in Russell's mind.

Russell seemed to be able to hear the minister talking quietly in that slow voice.

"It should be that after the car accident that year, he was rescued, or controlled by the people of the 'Veil of Ignorance'.

"In this era when plastic surgery and sex change are quite simple, because of the proliferation of prosthetic bodies and the ease of shape replacement, people will subconsciously identify each other with 'spiritual relative characteristics' and 'prosthetic body parts'...

"In order to prevent others from recognizing 'Little Liuli' as 'Blue Robin', his original kinship features were directly cut off, and he was disguised as a cat with a disguised prosthesis in the form of 'cat ears'."

Many clues that he had seen and found strange, but did not take to heart, were strung together in Russell's mind——

The idol of "Xiao Liuli" is full of weight, and can even be said to be "full of two-dimensional flavor", full of deliberate words and deeds;

As the top idol of Happy Island, he is equipped with a prosthetic body for stealing photos, but he has never had any scandals with others. After retiring as an idol, he still has no boyfriend;

Russell also witnessed her sharing a room with two girls in the Hive nightclub, and their common feature is that they all have black hair;

Coupled with "Xiao Liuli"'s love and understanding of wine, and the "caged bird" that appeared in the men's room instead of the women's room...

And, the most crucial detail that was missed by Russell——

The bird in that cage was obviously a blue robin.

Another name for blue song robin is Liuli song robin...some people call it "little glass".

But the "blue robin" -- only the males are azure.

Her registered name in the Hive Nightclub is "Blue Robin", which should not be a pseudonym, but an "old name".

It is the trace left after the code name was changed, because the old records have not been completely changed.

That was the name she registered when she toured and sang here before she became "Little Liuli"—a pseudonym that popped up automatically when her chip was detected.

This was probably the only flaw she showed.

...or, think about it the other way around.

Is that really a flaw?
