Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

"Now is not the time for flirting." Hobert broke the gaze between the two Nighthawks members: "Will just lost too much blood. Although his life is not in danger, he is still very weak. You rest here, and the others will follow me. Search Heyman’s residence.”

Brian nodded and immediately led Hobert from the front.

After the team members left, Will felt the wonder of the mysterious world, and he came back to life after dying.

At this moment, the doctor who had just rescued him passed by him: "You, you are not dead?"

Will quickly stood up and said, "Doctor, thank you for taking care of me just now. Yes, um, I, one of my teammates has a surgeon with superb medical skills."

"Lord of the Storm! I must be dreaming!" The doctor said incredulously: "Only in dreams can there be such a surgeon who can heal wounds instantly."

…

Hobert and the other three came to Hyman's residence, which was an apartment on the second floor with two rooms.

Both rooms were now in shambles, and the air was filled with the smell of rotting flesh.

Hobert noticed that there were several large broken clay pots on the ground, and the stench was caused by the fragments of the pots.

There is a smaller clay pot on the table over there. There is an iron buckle on the lid of the clay pot, which can firmly fasten the pot and lid.

Hobert said: "That small jar was probably used by Heyman to store sealed objects, and the broken jars must have contained a lot of corrupted flesh and blood. The main body of the 'multi-eyed monster' should be pieced together from these corrupted flesh and blood." of."

He suddenly realized belatedly that although his ability to "find loopholes" and "summarize patterns" had not become stronger, his powers of observation had become much stronger and he could quickly find the clues he wanted.

For example, the pipe on the ground should be something left by Heyman, but Hobert did not immediately remind the other Nighthawks.

He said to the Sequence 9: "Bring this clay pot to Borgia and let him hold the sealed artifact.

"Wait a minute, there should be something else. Ah, I found it. Let's take it to Borgia together."

What Hobert found was a wooden clamp thrown on the ground. Use it to clamp the sealed object, so that it will not be affected by the sealed object.

After the Sequence 9 man left, Hobert said to Brian: "Go to the room inside and see if there are any of Heyman's hair or any of his abandoned belongings."

Brian saw Hobert's strength in the previous battle, so he was willing to obey Hobert's orders.

When Hobert was alone in the room, he picked up the pipe that was half buried by the tiles and put it into his pocket.

If it were in the past, he would definitely give this clue to Nighthawks, because he had no way of divination, and it would be useless if he had clues.

But now that Mr. Ke has come to Backlund and has a way of divination, he plans to leave this clue behind.

Maybe we can dig out a few more of Heyman's dens? In that den last time, the total cash and belongings totaled more than 3,000 pounds!

If you can still afford one or two of these, you will be rich!

Hobert had already obtained a Heyman pipe before, but at that time Hobert only had Sequence 9, and because it involved the Aurora Society, Hobert did not dare to leave such clues.

It's different now. Hobert is already a Sequence 7, and it's a Sequence 7 that can be as hard as other Sequence 7s. He also knows that Heyman wants to break away from the Aurora Society.

The former allows Hobert not to worry, Heyman will follow the clues to find him in the opposite direction, and the latter allows Hobert not to worry about the madman from the Aurora Society, who will follow the clues to find him in the opposite direction.

A few minutes later, Brian said: "We looked for him. Heyman was very careful and didn't leave any clues."

Hobert nodded: "Let's go to the street and wait for follow-up support. Go and ask around. If there are any broken limbs or large wounds, bring them over and I will stitch them up."

Brian immediately went downstairs, feeling very grateful to Hobert. If he could save one person, the punishment his team would receive would be lighter.

Hobert picked up a chair and came to sit next to Will.

While resting, Hobert was sorting out the insights from the previous battle in his mind. At the moment when he defeated the "multi-eyed monster", Hobert felt the vitality of his spirituality and the loosening of the potion.

At that time, he realized that the process of defeating the "multi-eyed monster" would definitely lead to important information about digesting the "briber" potion or about his own sequence.

Hobert first briefly reviewed the battle just now: he found the weakness of the "multi-eyed monster" and dealt with it flexibly.

After thinking for a moment, Hobert immediately understood that this battle process was consistent with the characteristics of bribery.

Bribery is the process of finding the other party's weaknesses and then using these weaknesses to complete the bribe.

For example, if the chief executive of a certain county is lustful, then this is his weakness, and bribery is just a further action to target the weakness of others.

In other words, in battle, in court, or even on the field, in short, as long as you discover the opponent's weakness and use it to achieve your own goals, you are also acting as a "briber".

Then Hobert's thinking broadened, and he finally fully understood the description of the "briber" on the "Black Emperor" card: "The real briber has understood the true meaning of the 'loophole'."

The opponent's weakness is his loophole, and the reason why the Sequence 7 potion is called "briber" actually emphasizes the first half of the "bribery process": finding channels for bribery.

It’s a process of finding weaknesses and vulnerabilities.

Hobert finally understood that it was no wonder that the word "loophole" in the description was in quotation marks. It referred to the concept of loopholes, not just loopholes in order or rules.

After figuring this out, Hobert felt spiritually alive again, and he had fully understood the meaning contained in the name of the "briber" potion.

At this time, Brian came over with several seriously injured residents. Hobert came to his senses and began to use "suturing" to treat the injured residents.

More than half an hour later, police support arrived, and the follow-up work was left to them. Hobert and several Nighthawks returned to the Blackthorn Security Company one after another.

Because the other teams had not returned yet, everyone except "Sleepless" was arranged to rest in the lounge.

Hobert lay on the sofa and slept for two or three hours before being woken up by Borgia.

All Nighthawks are back.

A dozen team members met together in the conference room on the second floor to report on their respective results.

The actions of the six teams failed to capture Hillman and Heyman. Hillman had insight into the arrest plan in advance and used occult methods to recruit a Sequence 5 to assist, even though he used 2-365 (a black glove seized from the Tamara family), still allowed Hillman to run away.

However, Hillman was also hit hard and it may take a long time to recover. Of course, he may never return to his best condition and lose hope of promotion forever.

After learning about the results of the other teams' actions, Thomas said: "There is no doubt that Hobert played an important role in this operation."

Needless to say, Hobert almost single-handedly killed the "hermit". This has already exceeded the set task given to him by Thomas. Later, Hobert's support and obstruction were the main reason for Thomas' praise.
