Foreword:
It's easy to make things complicated, but it's complicated to make things simple.
Dale Carnegie丨"Human Weakness"
[Part ①·Go straight to the point]
After reading the letter, Jason Megan put the paper away, preparing to use it as a clue to follow the handwriting characteristics and try his luck in the Metropolitan Police Department's database.
"Mr. Boris Hamann."
At this moment, the gunsmith who had been silent spoke up——
"——I hope you can return to your post and remain silent about what you just witnessed."
The fat manager in the customer service department felt a little at a loss. He didn't know whether he should listen to this, but it was too late. He had already listened to all the contents of the letter, and it was impossible for his mind to forget these things, or He said that today's experience would never be forgotten in his life.
"Mr. Gunsmith, I'm very, very difficult."
"I know this matter is a bit difficult for you. You can rest for a while and then contact this number." Jiang Xueming tore off a page of the diary and handed Mr. Victor's contact information to Mr. Haman: "For you , it would be better to forget this experience.”
Haman nodded dully. He had become a psyker, and his life would be very different from now on. Although he didn't know the gunsmith's intentions, he would not go against the wishes of the Ao Mingde inner guard.
After Mr. Boris left the stage, Jason Meghan could clearly feel the temperature in the room slowly dropping.
The charcoal in the brazier gradually turned from gold to red. The gunsmith slowly opened the vent next to the bay window and sat carelessly on the floor. He then took out a cigarette, threw one to Jason, and continued to mind his own business. On point.
This is the first cigarette he has smoked this year. The last time he smoked it was when he was still in his big sister form. He used it to deal with the excessively high madness index and used nicotine instead of serotonin for emergency response.
To be honest, since becoming the child of a wolf mother, Jason no longer likes the smell of cigarettes. He did not light up a cigarette and sat side by side with the gunsmith, trying to say something to ease the silence. feeling of anxiety.
"Jiang Xueming, are you worried about the lives of your wife and children?"
The gunsmith took the wine glass and used it as an ashtray: "I don't know, this matter has become complicated. My brain is not as good as before, and I will start to get angry involuntarily."
"Leave it to me, this guy can't escape." Jason Megan vowed: "For me, the clues he left are enough for me to find him."
Jiang Xueming smiled and nodded, but his eyebrows were still untied, and he still had a serious and cold expression: "Kill this one, there will be the next one, and the next one, when will it be over?"
How many more times can the immortal lose? Xueming didn't know clearly.
But the few small gifts Pellelini sent today really made him irritated and became irritable.
Even though this birdman has been extremely sarcastic, he has written out all the riddles and explained all the purposes clearly.
But that condescending and arrogant attitude really hit Xueming where it hurts.
Things don't lie. When these gifts were delivered to Xueming in real terms, for a moment, he felt a sense of urgency that he couldn't let go, a weakness that was too much to avoid, and a sign of losing control of his emotions.
But he quickly calmed down and immediately asked Boris Hamann to keep this little secret.
If something like this becomes news, becomes folklore, and becomes the butt of jokes among armadillo hunters, it will be more destructive than people imagine.
If a gunsmith can't even protect his wife and children, what qualifications does he have to be the patron saint of many sites?
"Have you noticed that this guy likes to be smart?" Jiang Xueming suddenly caught a familiar feeling. It was the experience accumulated in many previous battles that reminded him: "It seems like he is intimidating me, but in fact he is scared to death." "
Jason Megan became interested: "Elaborate."
Jiang Xueming took out a marker and drew the basic topographic maps of District 41, District 40 and District 39 on the floor.
He compared several major transportation lines before and after, and focused on the former site of Marley Perot's ancestral home, the western suburbs park, and the equipment market surrounding Daji Township.
"That was his course of action."
"We will set off around mid-July, so we need to recruit troops half a month in advance."
"He needs cars, and he needs deck cars. The management specifications for guns and ammunition during the Luna Cup are the most stringent. He also needs a temporary base to store vehicles and place soldiers."
"He has to use various methods to find the player Marley Perrault. Before I came to Daji Township, no one knew where my students would go, because Ahao selected players based on his mood, so Pellerini ·Tu Aung only started arranging the attack when I set off or when Chief of Staff Li Zhiwen recognized me."
"Then he only has seven days left to organize and mobilize soldiers, purchase equipment and supplies, and bewitch Marley Perrault or other Luna Cup players - I don't know if any other players have also received the blessing of the elixir. Put this aside for now.”
"Let's start from this action trajectory. Jason, I need your criminal investigation ability to deduce a plan that can successfully complete all miscellaneous things within seven days."
"It's your turn to perform."
Jason Megan first went to the children's room to collect Begonia's relics. He identified the specific arms dealer through the carrying tools and plastic magazines, as well as several marching rations, a survival knife, a flashlight and a GPS, a three-proof mobile phone and There is no Bluetooth device and no radio. The combat equipment is probably left in the field stronghold.
He has seen this kind of canned food. The digestive system of the blood donation unit prefers human flesh. In order to maintain their "human content", many hybrid beasts will specially purchase some nutritional supplements containing Lady White's products as food. The processing workshop of Mrs. Products has an artificial liver to continuously cultivate chubby mad butterfly larvae.
The moment the can was opened, Jason licked it gently and finally locked the target.
"Beside the Xicheng Beikou Expressway, there is a small market, which is a large logistics distribution center. This canned product came from the meat and drug processing factory there."
Jiang Xueming: "Are you sure?"
"I'm sure, I didn't think about it at first. I came back to my senses after I tasted the bitter taste of liver and gallbladder." Jason explained: "The Greenstone people are a group of people who love labor and production most. They live in the 30th to 50th districts. Leading to the starting point of the Culpo gold mine, there are many gold prospectors who need to prepare sufficient dry food."
"Mrs. Bai's nutritional supplement is a necessity for the daily life of disaster beast hybrids. Disaster beast hybrids are all potential lycanthropy patients and need this kind of food supplement to control their animal nature - blood donation units can also take this kind of supplement. meal."
"The Xicheng North Exit Expressway connects the two checkpoints of District 40 and District 41. This logistics distribution center is also the largest paradise for beast hybrids on the entire Eurasian Continental Bridge. Hybrids with stupid strength are willing to work as couriers. Porters are paid very well.”
"The marching rations of this bloody animal are local specialties there and are not sold to other places."
"Every commodity requires expensive transportation capacity to be sent to a distant place. In the underground world, trains are arteries and roads are capillaries leading to the skin. Without trucks, there is no door-to-door delivery."
Jason said this and took away the marker from Jiang Xueming's hand. His right arm was newly grown and was not very flexible yet. He wanted to draw circles to represent Pellerini's range of activities, but in the end there was nothing he could do. When I was able to draw a circle with my freehand, I could only vaguely circle concentric polygons.
Upon seeing this, Jiang Xueming immediately said, "I can't determine his specific location now."
Jason immediately added more details.
You can buy tactical radios and carrying equipment at the same time, as well as bulletproof inserts corresponding to Level 3 to Level 5 standards, as well as helmet plastic fabrics used by blood donation units for sun protection, etc. Three areas were left.
Jiang Xueming: "He might die now, but that's just a possibility."
Jason continued working, and he could feel his brain heating up. Because of the overclocking work, he concentrated on recalling, searching for all kinds of small commodities in his memory, and tracing all the smells back to their origins.
"Fragrance! Yes, yes! And this!"
Haitang's room has always been filled with the smell of volatile alcoholic fragrances, but the Dali Hotel does not have such strong fragrances. The room environment left for guests in this five-star hotel has always been a sleep-aid type, not a passionate room for young couples.
This scent, which has a strong sexual connotation and can even disrupt the Lapis Lazuli Wolf's sense of smell, locks in the final position.
Together with two other pieces of evidence, one is a car repair shop that decks vehicles,
The other one is dozens of lines drawn hard by Jason Megan——
——This is Pellerini’s action route. He traveled to and from various places in vehicles, recruited hunters and distributed equipment, purchased ammunition and military supplies, purchased daily necessities, investigated the backgrounds of players, and contacted talent scouts in the 40th and 41st districts. , the continuous back-and-forth action route, the intersection of these lines is the stronghold.
Jiang Xueming stamped out the cigarette butt; "He is dead now."
Mr. Jason feels that his mental strength is somewhat insufficient. It is easy to make simple things complicated, but it is too complicated to make complicated things simple.
It sounds convoluted, but it also conforms to the law of entropy increase in thermodynamics.
"It's up to you, gunsmith, to do what you do best. I need to take a break, I need to take a break."
The half-wolf was lying on the floor next to the bay window. After a series of fierce battles, Pellerini gave them another brainstorming session. He really didn't have the mental energy to keep his brain functioning. It's like doing hundreds of questions in a short period of time.
This duel seems to be an arm-wrestling between the Gunsmith and the Eternal, but at the decision-making level, it is a battle between Pellelini Tuon and Jason Megan.
One of them attacks when escaping, and the other defends when pursuing. They compete in brain power and endurance.
Jason Megan finally understood why the gunsmith said [this guy actually likes to be smart].
Pellerini left his real name, and it seemed that he was determined to fight until death. He made ruthless words and left gifts in a systematic way.
He just didn't want to die, and he wanted to do his best to interfere with the gunsmith's judgment, leaving all his thinking bandwidth and all his brainpower to his family, his students, and the Luna Cup. Including the legend of the Cauldron of Dagda, the Holy Grail that can satisfy all wishes, regardless of whether it is real or not, maybe Ao Mingde once really owned this rich holy weapon, but Pellerini is This specific mention in the letter almost made him look like he was trembling and the hairs on his back were in a terrifying posture.
He was really scared, and just wanted to use messy information and various deceitful tricks to draw away the audience's attention like an elegant magician to complete the magic.
He wants to live, and living is the only goal of this eagle.
[Part②·Next attack]
"Are the last few words this guy left in his letter credible?" the gunsmith asked Jason.
Jason immediately grasped the key point and reminded the boss: "It's not important, at least it's not important now. If Pellelini's goal is the Luna Cup, then he should be in Adulis, near Zula, not It's disgusting for us here - he said he wanted to keep you in District 41, which sounds reasonable, but actually makes no sense - because at the Luna Cup finals, there were at least fifty VIPs guarding the trophy. , he is seeking his own death."
Gunsmith: "If I mobilize the police force of District 41 now and summon Guangling Zhixi to arrest Pellerini together, where will he hide?"
Jason plugged a battery into his brain and decided to work overtime: "It's definitely not in the stronghold. Just imagine, we have exposed our arrest intention, and he also reserved gifts and letters in advance, which is a prediction of our arrest intention. This According to the matryoshka logic, he will appear anywhere - except the stronghold. If we go to the stronghold to arrest people now, we will probably start the next round of cat-and-mouse game. If we continue to follow his train of thought, he can then discard the minions he recruited. , one after another, slowly delaying time."
"You just said you were delaying time, right?" The gunsmith perked up.
Jason: "He needs time. Originally, he didn't have much time to plan an attack. When he came to this area, this guy worked almost 007 non-stop, just to prepare these traps."
The gunsmith smashed the bay window with one punch, and the fragrant dream came out, catching all the glass shards.
"I figured it out!"
He went downstairs as he went upstairs, climbing all the way down the outer wall without any delay.
Jason Megan was covered in rashes by the wind from the high-rise building, and shouted loudly: "What do you want to understand? Hey! Boss! Don't be the Riddler! At least tell me clearly!"
"I'm separated from the students! It takes four hours to get to the capital from here!" the gunsmith shouted into the mobile phone: "This guy's target is my students! It's the students I have worked hard to teach for six years. !”
Time will defeat the gunsmith, this is what Pellerini has always believed in, but the students of the gunsmith have not yet matured mentally. They are weak and very likely to become the minions of the crazy butterfly. They may be tempted by material or forced by their lives. As long as we catch them, everything else will be easy to deal with.
But Ahao, Daniel, Kaixi and Xiaomin have been active around District 1 all year round. This is the first time for them to go out so far. After more than 30 hours of driving, they came to a completely unfamiliar place, just to Looking for Qi Ji, looking for this teammate.
In Pellerini's eyes, this is like a cub leaving the supervision of its parents and wandering into the dangerous wilderness alone.
Transform any one of them into a blood-granting unit, use the skills taught by the gunsmith to deal with the gunsmith, and let the students attack the teacher. This is Pellerini's basic idea and a way to win.
If this is not possible, then choose a good time to send the video of the torture and killing of these young people to various trade transfer stations, and make the gunsmith go crazy and lose his mind to severely damage the Taoist heart. This is also a kind of winning, but less winning.
If even these young people cannot be killed or caught, the guaranteed solution is to transform a group of Luna Cup players, preferably admirers of Gunsmith and followers of Anonymous, and distort their values. Use money and power to corrupt them and make them fight against the Nameless Doe.
Rigid plans cannot keep up with changes. Pellerini is a very flexible decision-maker. He used a blood donation unit to get four hours, and the business only made a profit.
In the next four calm hours, in the Lion Heart Stadium, on the eve of the city competition, he wanted to attack these unsuspecting cubs. Even if the gunsmith had two wings on his back, he could not rush back to the students. .
The blood donation unit that carried out the arrest mission was a couple.
The husband’s name is Griffin Patton and the wife’s name is Cory Patton.
They had a lovely child who has now become a hostage in the hands of Monsignor Pellerini.
They were worried about their children's safety, but they were also delighted by the divine power brought by the incarnation. In the end, they just muddle along and became Pellelini's minions half-heartedly.
At this moment, the man was pushing an ice cream truck in a temperature of 41 degrees Celsius. Under the capital's strict gun control, he did not carry any weapons and was parked beside the gate of the Roman Holiday Hotel, observing people coming and going. personnel.
He and his wife, one in the dark and one in the dark, acted as two sentinels. They were the kidnapping duo deployed in the capital in advance to take action when the members of the Fairy Tale Kingdom were alone. They both had soul power.
Everything looks so beautiful, but these little guys are like conjoined twins, and there are at least three of them every time they travel.
"Kelly." Griffin lowered the brim of his hat, with a manic look in his eyes. He couldn't hide the two fangs between his generous lips and teeth. When he met the patrol of the rapid reaction force patrolling the post, he could only happily call himself a disaster beast hybrid. , "Kelly, are you listening?"
The young woman hiding in the alley woke up from her doze, "Oh! My dear! I've always been there!"
"Marley Perrault also lives in this hotel, why? Why?" Griffin asked: "Why can this guy live in a big suite? We have to stand on the street and suffer? Oh my God! Just now, two soldiers from the quick reaction force came to question me. They are engaging in racial discrimination! Damn it! Why are there such people in the world? Ao ruthless Mingde doesn't care?! They took ice cream Don’t pay!”
Keli replied awkwardly: "My dear, for the great cause of Crazy Butterfly, you have to endure it and learn to be patient."
"Ha" Griffin scolded: "This society is so broken! Fortunately, there are people like Pellerini here! Otherwise, how can we survive?"
"Hehehe, dear." Keli quickly comforted: "Marley Perrault's parents are still in the hands of Mr. Pellerini! This kid can't help himself!"
"I can't help myself? I want to be helpless too!" Griffin grumbled: "If I send my parents as hostages, I can live in a hotel and eat delicious food and drink spicy food every night. Cheerleader.”
Kelly: "What did you say?"
Griffin: "No I didn't say anything."
Keli; 'You said it, cheerleader.'
Griffin: "No, no, no! No, that's not the case. Someone is out!"
A shark emerged from the gate. This was the only lone target the Pattons had discovered during the days they had been squatting.
"Hey! Damn it! It's such a hot day! I'm going to turn into a salty fish!"
Little Shark was only wearing a pair of beach pants, and his head was still full of fish oil from the heat, and he applied cooling cream to his forehead from time to time.
"You won't even go downstairs to get a takeaway! What a bunch of lazy idiots! The coach must come in person! Sooner or later, all your wages will be deducted!"
Griffin was disappointed because Baby Shark was not their target——
——His wife Keli woke him up.
"Grab this! Aren't all the rest coming?"
