Chapter 385 Seize the opportunity
If I hadn't done anti-tracking, would I have met "Loki" now? Lumian was taken aback by Thermiporos' answer.
He simply wanted to know if the "art of prophecy" could play a role in the face of the extraordinary person of the "soothsayer" path, and it didn't matter if Thermibolus didn't answer, he was already a "contracted person" and could respond to himself and get a bottle of "prophecy potion" to try the effect.
Lumian's thoughts were spinning in his mind, analyzing the amount of information contained in such a sentence:
After leaving the old street, "Loki" followed him for a while!
The origin of the data copy is a trap!
Today at noon, "Rocky" was inside the "Alone" bar!
He deliberately used the mechanical typewriter of the "Alone" bar to make copies of the data in order to allow possible trackers to find it, so as to lock on the other person, reverse track, and inflict a fatal blow.
And if the tracker is very powerful, he can also ensure the most basic safety in the Eighth Bureau's stronghold, and it will not be easily found, and he can even use the power of the Eighth Bureau, an official organization, to attack the opponent.
Thinking of this, Lumian was both regretful and fortunate.
He regretted that during the period from leaving the old street to completing the anti-tracking process, he did not discover the tracking of "Loki", so he "missed" the founder of the "April Fool's Day" group, and he would have had the opportunity to talk to him about "Muggle".
After all, according to Franka's description, the "fortune teller" arrived at sequence 7 "Magician", and he had a lot of strange abilities, and after becoming a "secret puppet master", he could silently put people to death.
If he was really going to be attacked by "Loki", Lumian was not sure if he would have a chance to activate Mr. K's fingers, and he didn't know if he could find out where the real "Loki" was in time, so as to rely on the "Hum Ha Technique" to get out of the predicament.
But at this time, the fire in his heart made him regret more than happy.
Lumian's pace towards the Breeze Ballroom slowed down unconsciously, and he completely filtered the experience of being in the "Alone" bar at noon:
The bar was dimly lit, it was past lunchtime, and there were two or three drinkers chatting drunkenly by the window, and it seemed that only Lia dressed as a bartender was left on the entire first floor;
In the cellar, which serves as a puppet theater, a few lines of dialogue from different people occasionally come out;
There was a man reading a newspaper in the room with a mechanical typewriter, he never spoke, his eyes were focused on the newspaper, even when charging for typing, he only nodded......
Who among them is "Loki"? Lumian stopped diagonally across from the Breeze Ballroom, his gaze a little out of focus.
According to Franka, "Loki" liked to let his appearance be exposed at the beginning of last year or even earlier, and was suspected of being promoted to "Faceless Man", and Leah was still the "magician" of sequence 7 a few months ago.
——In a real dream, she should not be able to hide the specific sequence.
Lumian gradually turned his suspicions on the newspaper reading man guarding the typewriter:
He can use the mechanical typewriter to make copies of data at any time, and he can easily find out if strangers are borrowing the mechanical typewriter......
Lumian carefully recalled the appearance characteristics of the man who read the newspaper, and found that he was ordinary and had no memory - about thirty years old, with black hair and blue eyes, not good-looking or ugly, wearing black formal clothes, just like the kind of small clerks commonly seen on the streets.
"Moreover, the 'Secret Puppet Master' can also make puppets, maybe it's just a secret puppet, not 'Loki', so he has been silent and pretended to read the newspaper......
"Since the 'Secret Puppet Master' can turn people into puppets, can they also turn mice, cockroaches, bed bugs, etc. into puppets?
"In that case, there are so many possibilities, every creature in the 'Alone' bar could be 'Loki'......
"How else can you find him? What an annoying guy, although the forms of expression are different from Amon and the others, they are just as annoying!
"That is, I have an angel trapped on me, and I have the seal of Mr. 'Fool' and the aura of 'Blood Emperor', otherwise the 'Master of Secret Puppet' as a 'fortune teller' can easily find me...... Purely relying on anti-tracking and 'lies' should not be able to get rid of 'Loki'......
"It's so annoying, that's the stronghold of the eighth game, and you can't force the real 'Loki' out with a cover attack......" The more Lumian thought about it, the more irritable he became.
After successfully getting rid of the tracking, it is basically impossible for him to use similar temptations to fish out "Loki".
Also, frequent trips to "Alone" bars will also attract the attention of the 8th inning, which will be even more troublesome.
Lumian took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, forcing himself to calm down and maintain emotional stability.
He focused his thinking on the analysis of the person "Loki":
"According to Anthony's theory, 'Loki' and most of the 'April Fool's Day' members are the kind of people who think they are smart, otherwise after despairing of the future, they are unlikely to find fun through pranks, and should indulge their desires and indulge in all kinds of pleasures in life......
"Is it possible for such a person to lure them into the bait through a trap that they think they have seen?"
Lumian kept disassembling various information in his mind and reassembling them in an attempt to find a feasible solution.
This made him gradually irritable, and he wanted to rush directly into the "Alone" bar and kill all the people and creatures except for Lia.
Finally, Lumian thought of something.
Although it cannot be turned into a plan for "Loki", it can test the situation of the "Alone" bar to see if it can find out the details that can be used and tracked, and this can also allow him to vent his emotions, vent his anger, and make a lot of money.
After deliberating for a while, Lumian turned around and walked towards the chaotic street.
…………
Golden Rooster Hotel, room 401.
Lumian pushed open the closed door and saw Fitz, a bankrupt businessman, sitting at a wooden table, soaking a stick-like rye bread in the gooey soup.
Fitz glanced back, put down the food in his hand, and stood up blankly and panicked:
"Mr. Charles, is there something wrong?"
The bankrupt businessman's brown hair was greasy, but he stubbornly kept it neat enough, and his dark brown eyes and smile lines on his lips made him naturally look pleasing.
Compared to last time, Fizz's clothes were a little dirtier, and he didn't seem to have any extra time to clean them.
Lumian asked bluntly:
"Do you have any documents that can prove that Timmons owes you 100,000 Felkin? The owner of that 'different' cabaret."
Fizz's eyes lit up:
"Yes! I have a contract for our joint venture, which stipulates the time for him to repurchase shares and give 10 Felkin and corresponding profits.
"Mr. Shire, you don't need to remind me of who Timmons is with a 'different' cabaret, I curse that bastard a hundred times a day!
"Mr. Charles, is there any hope of getting my money back?"
Lumian curled the corners of his mouth:
"There is such an opportunity, this may be the only opportunity in your life, once you miss it, you really won't get the money back."
Now is the time when the power of the "different" cabaret is at its weakest!
Without the Ammons, only some humans who have been alienated to varying degrees remain!
Fizz was excited and worried when he heard this, and turned out the treasured contract on the spot and handed it to Lumian.
Although he didn't trust this gang leader too much, he had no other choice but to pray that the other party could bring back good news.
…………
Observatory District, Old Street.
Lumian changed his appearance, changed his clothes, and walked to the "different" dance hall in a shirt, vest, top hat and thin formal attire.
A guard wearing a monocle in his right eye and a short black suit stopped him:
"Sir, you need to wear monocles to enter our dance hall."
Lumian replied with a smile:
"It was Monit who asked me to come, saying that I don't have to wear a monocle in my right eye like you."
The two guards looked at each other and smiled meaningfully at the same time:
"That's no problem."
It seems that you all know what will happen to those invited by Monit...... was also infected with that bad personality, and even quietly believed in Amon? It's a pity that you don't know that the current "different" cabaret is no longer what you remember...... Lumian sneered, and decided to find the one who most resembled Amon later, and smashed his monocle with a punch.
This is not only to vent the anger and fear that was used and frightened by Amon before, but also to attract the attention of the "Alone" bar, otherwise, how would they know that someone can get the defrauded money back from Timmons?
It was evening, and gas wall lamps and chandeliers using stained glass were lit up in the "Different" cabaret.
Many people wearing monocles and short suits are writhing on the dance floor, or holding a glass of wine, leaning on the railing, smiling and watching others dance, or playing the violin and playing the clarinet in the corner, bringing a warm atmosphere to the scene.
It looks like nothing has happened here.
Lumian looked at it for a while and turned to the stairs leading to the second floor.
The monocle guard standing there stretched out his right hand and stopped Lumian.
He asked with a smile:
"Who are you looking for?"
Lumian replied relaxedly:
"Ask Timmons to pay back."
"That person can't go up." The monocle guard did not stop too strongly, as if watching a comedy.
Lumian curled the corners of his mouth and showed a bright smile.
Bang!
He swung his left fist and hit the guard in the face, causing the monocle to fly out, and fell to the ground with a click, cracking into gaps.
