The top floor of the Queen's Golden Crown, the most exclusive restaurant in the city.

Although enjoying the city night view through the windows at the few tables in the hall is a luxury option, it is undoubtedly beyond Luke's budget. He booked a slightly inferior private room, a private room that could only be accessed with an ID card. It also had floor-to-ceiling windows, but it was not as bright and bright as the lobby.

When Lu Ning walked out of the elevator, Luke was standing there waiting.

"I'm so glad you didn't break the promise. I've been let go so many times."

"Are you so unpopular?"

Luke scratched his cheek and smiled a little dryly: "Maybe I'm a little unlucky."

The two of them walked towards the side room as they talked.

"I don't have enough financial resources to reserve the observation table in the lobby here, but the advantage of the room is that no one will disturb you. By the way, this..."

He took out a bracelet, lifted up his sleeve slightly and showed Lu Ning his left wrist.

"This is for identification, and it has the same function as the ID card, right?"

Lu Ning took it and clasped it on her wrist. Arriving at the wing, Luke pressed his wrist on an identifier in front of the door. After a soft "beep" sound, he turned the door handle and walked in.

"That's how it's used."

After Luke entered the room, he pulled out a chair for Lu Ning gracefully. After Lu Ning sat down, he walked to the opposite side of the table and sat down.

"Are you hungry? Do you want to order something to eat first?"

"Let's deal with business first." Lu Ning declined.

Luke was slightly depressed, but then he cheered up, took out his briefcase from a small cabinet next to him, and took out a stack of documents.

"I did some research on my family and some inside information about the District 10 Clinic, and found some very interesting things. But I'm not particularly sure how effective these can be."

"Then are you ready to show me?"

"After all...I don't know anyone in this scene. The family is still the same. After all, you are the only one..." Luke pushed the file to Lu Ning, "I remember you are quite powerful. If these are useful, You don’t mind telling me something you know as a reward, right?”

"Okay." Lu Ning nodded and took the file, opened it and began to browse.

The black clinic in District 10 is also a regional specialty. It kills more people than saves people. If you are really familiar with it, you will definitely understand the true role of the clinic. There is no need to think innocently, the transaction details and billing statements in the data show that every clinic there is doing this kind of business.

However, most still follow the process of arresting people first and then taking out the organs to sell. Only one company contacts the buyer first and then uses various channels to find a matching method.

It was the same family that Lu Ning and Luke met.

The "doctor" is the person in charge of this clinic, and his medical skills are quite good. He can bring back almost anyone who has breathed. However, the "doctor" rarely does it himself. Guiding students is the treatment method he uses more recently. The disguised clinic itself will not perform removal surgeries, and the exact location is unknown, but at least it is a complete operating table capable of performing major surgeries.

Strangely, according to some people who have received treatment from the "doctor", the "doctor" has different characteristics such as size, voice, and age. Even the gender is said to be female. These testimonies have been repeatedly confirmed and there should be no possibility of forgery.

To sum up, perhaps "doctor" is not a role played by one person.

Below are investigative testimonies, covert images, portraits and a timeline.

Lu Ning frowned slightly as she looked at the accompanying testimony. She basically knew Dr. D, but as District 10 and the caretaker of "materialism", she always felt there was something wrong with him.

Origin Evil can provide nearly endless energy, but the ability is inherent to a person. From what Moura and the person who opened the door have said before, Origin Evil can only be possessed by one person at a time.

So, these people are all substitutes found by Dr.D? However, although the physical descriptions in the confessions were quite different, the medical skills and treatment results were both perfect, and some details were relatively synchronized. She doubted whether Dr. D had enough time to find a bunch of stand-ins with superb medical skills.

As for appearance change - if it is just this ability, it is a bit insufficient.

Unless he can also possess the abilities of others while transforming, the change in appearance alone is definitely not enough to qualify him as a holder of the Sefirot of Evil. She could probably judge the ability level of the Heavenly Kingdom Council just from the strength of the two losers in the cemetery, the weirdo and the one who opened the door.

Although she also agrees with the statement that every ability has its own usage, she has to say that some abilities are just too strong to be unreasonable. This can be known from Maura's side and the whole leopard.

If not, Dr. D must have a "positive body". She is not sure whether multiple individuals will disperse the power of the evil of the essence, but to be on the safe side, it is assumed that it is not dispersed.

Lu Ning's reading speed was already very fast. She quickly read the not too thick information to the end, but when she turned the last page, she paused slightly.

The content on this page has nothing to do with the previous one.

[Secrets given to visitors Luke Craft:

1. You are a paranoid person. Although you are usually kind to others, you have an almost obsessive recognition of your luck. You don't allow anyone to comment that you are unlucky, and in order to prove yourself right, you take action and start looking for lucky people in the world to compete with them. Being a tourist will give you a certain degree of luck, and you can make your wishes come true even if they are not particularly important.

2. You killed Lu Yongming, a successful entrepreneur, in your latest luck test. You learned through your own secret channels that his daughter came to Sin City with the intention of finding the murderer and seeking revenge. However, when you started investigating, you found that she should have hidden her identity, which aroused your interest.

3. Your behavior has been discovered by your family. Although you have obtained some funds through your own luck to support your activities outside, your family intends to eliminate this stain on you. Even though you were in Sin City, you still couldn't escape the pursuit of some people, so you contacted the black clinic in District 10 and planned to fake your death to deceive your family. And then naturally, you will secretly wipe out this family that has become a burden to you.

4. Depending on your luck, if you obtain the evil tome, you will surely be able to obtain abilities that match yours. But you still need to explore it yourself. 】

drop.

There was a soft sound from the other side of the door, and the green indicator light turned red.

"Have you finished reading?"

Luke turned his head with his usual smile.

Lu Ning pressed the information, her expression turned cold and serious, and she stared at Luke's face. However, there was no flaw in this man's expression.

"Lu Ying, we really have to use some illegal means to find your information. Oh, do you know Sherlock Holmes? I like that series of stories very much. In fact, according to the law, many of his actions are in the legal realm. Borderline…it’s this feeling that makes people feel excited.”

Luke walked back to his seat and sat down. He took out a small box from his briefcase and threw the ID card in his hand into the box. There was a crisp "click" sound when the lid closed.

"My name is Lu Ning."

"Of course I know, don't worry, I still won't have this kind of misunderstanding. Even I didn't expect that a person I met by chance was the target I was looking for. My secret has been written on paper, aren't you ready to do it a little bit? Can you confess something to me?"

"What?"

"That money, and the information you know, what's going on with these things? You see, I have made so many preparations to prevent you from escaping, so I have to be worthy of the reward, right?"

Lu Ning glanced at the bracelet on her wrist.

"There is a suppression device in this room, so you don't have to worry about that thing exploding. This is the same safety measure I used for your father. It's just a safety measure to prevent someone from breaking the rules." Luke shook his finger. , "Of course, if you escape from this environment, even if you use the money to escape, the bracelet will activate instantly, and it will be powerful enough to blow you up into ashes."

"So this isn't an authentication at all?"

"You can only use that card for verification, I think you've guessed it, right? I just hid the card in my sleeve when I entered. It's just a little trick - it's useful if it can fool people."

Lu Ning stared at Luke, her brows still not loosening.

"Are you a tourist or a character in the scene? It's a secret identity, but it's not a mission. Why should you take it seriously?"

"Ha, why..." Luke pressed his temples and narrowed his eyes slightly, "I don't know. Just after I entered the scene and obtained this identity, I became interested in the concept he held. I have an inexplicable sense of identity. Things like luck can indeed determine our future. Don’t you think this idea makes sense in such a world? If it is just a delusion, that’s it, but this person has even a distribution center. I'm afraid you've never experienced the feeling of having all your wishes come true, right?"

Lu Ning shook her head.

"Everything will go according to your will. For example, if you want to cross the street, the light will turn green immediately. If you want to enter a gated building, someone will open the door and come out. If you want to take an elevator, there will definitely be one parked on your door. Floor..." Luke said excitedly, "Including yesterday, when I fell into such a crisis, I met you in advance who had a way to escape! If you are lucky enough, then any difficulty will be solved! This is luck. strength!"

"So? What do you want to do?"

"Just like I did before this identity..."

Luke said as he took out a glass jar filled with large red pills from his briefcase.

"After all, this identity is just an ordinary person, not a person with abilities. The so-called luck will always hit a low point, and my current situation is too dangerous. If this luck leaves me, I will die without a burial. Land. So to make sure my luck is still strong, I want to verify it."

"In other words, find a lucky person to bet against?"

"Yes, if I can still maintain this kind of luck, it's not a bad idea to work hard for the next fifteen days. If I can't maintain it, it might be a good choice to leave. For this reason, I also did a little research, and Lu Ning, your luck is actually quite good. I'm sure that money is not your belongings, which means you must have had adventures, and as far as I know so far, you also carry a bad book with you." Luke Pointing to her pocket. "

"so what?"

"You are a perfect match for what I need as an opponent in a lucky gambling game, and you are still a tourist, so you couldn't be more perfect. I think you must have passed the HELLSPEED questionnaire, right?"

Lu Ning pursed her lips and did not answer.

"Acquiescence? That's okay." Luke slowly unscrewed the lid of the glass jar. "I said that Sherlock Holmes is my favorite series of stories, so the inspiration for this bet also came from there."

Lu Ning glanced at the pills in the jar and sneered:

"A study of words written in blood?"

"In the story, the murderer made two pills with the same appearance, one highly poisonous and one non-toxic. He would force the victim to choose one of them to eat, and he would take the other one."

As he explained, he slowly pushed the jar to the middle of the table.

"There are twenty pills here, ten of which are highly poisonous and ten of which are non-toxic. Even I can't tell the difference now. The rules of the game are also very simple. You choose two pills each time and give one to me. Keep one pill for yourself, and then we each take the pill. If two people survive, then proceed to the next round. If one person dies, the bomb on the other person's wrist will be automatically deactivated, and then the identity card will be taken from the lock box. You can leave, the password is four zeros."

"What if they are all dead?" Lu Ning asked coldly.

"I don't think the worst outcome can happen with the luck of the two of us." Luke smiled slightly, "Of course, you can also refuse, but any refusal will be regarded as a threat to detonate the bomb on your wrist. You Don't expect to die with me while holding the bomb. Although it is very powerful, the explosive power of this bomb is quite concentrated."

"You really can't tell your identity..."

Lu Ning reached out and moved the glass jar in front of her, and said to Luke mockingly.

"No matter what you say, you can't escape from this bet. If you win, everything I have is here, and you can take it away. That is the reward that people with strong luck deserve."

"I think I'm pretty lucky, but I never rely on luck to accomplish anything."

Lu Ning pinched two pills from the jar and threw one to Luke.

"You just don't believe it."

"Your appearance reminds me of the remarks of many fanatic believers I have read in books." Lu Ning looked at the pills and compared them with the contents of the bottle, and found that there was indeed no abnormality in appearance.

"But in this world that's the truth."

Luke grinned and put the pill in his mouth first.

In contrast, Lu Ning frowned and hesitated before taking the pill.
