When the octopus over there heard He Yueyin's arrangement, he clenched his fist into his palm and gritted his teeth: "That's how it should be... huh?"
Ronan's unexpected reaction made Octopus unable to react for a moment. Maybe the young man is too frustrated and wants to run to the corner to lick his wounds?
Well, speaking of it, in the past half year, no matter how bad the situation was, it was the first time for Octopus to see Ronan so passive and unable to fight back. Sure enough, he was caught emotionally, and he was far more fragile than usual.
"Nanzi, you must be steady at this time. Isn't it said that winning first does not mean winning. In the end, it still depends on who has the last laugh..."
Octopus felt that there was still room for redemption. Don't you think what He Yueyin meant was that the three giants of Xia City met together to discuss how to deal with the consequences of the horned devil's behavior. In a sense, it is tantamount to endorsing Ronan.
With Ronan's current status, of course it is worthy of this; and from the other side, it is also because of the poor stance shown by the Horned Demon, a genius who grew up in Xia City and accepted the relatives of President Ouyang and You Lao, which is almost akin to betrayal. No different...
It is said that he escaped into the wilderness in embarrassment because of his bet with His Majesty Emperor Wu, and he had already seen the signs.
While Octopus was sighing, he heard Ronan say again: "The attitude of the Horned Demon is indeed very suspicious and needs to be considered. But I'm not very familiar with this person. Even if I went there, I couldn't ask any questions. Anyway, Brother Squidward has been there from beginning to end. Participate, and some things will be relayed by him.”
"Hello!"
"There is one more thing that is more important to me." Ronan turned his eyes to He Yueyin, "The Horned Demon said that the deal I couldn't afford..."
He Yueyin understood: "Mr. Luo Yuandao's wilderness laboratory."
"Well, I once heard my aunt say that when my grandfather was in the wilderness, he moved with the wandering tribe. There were many laboratories, large and small, and most of them were abandoned. The ones that were retained later were also sealed by the scientific research ethics committee. They were resold to various wilderness research institutes. If there is indeed a surviving laboratory ruin with buried notes or other clues, I would like to know..."
Ronan rambled, but the meaning finally became clear. He Yueyin nodded: "I will send people to investigate the large funds and credit transactions related to the Horned Demon. It is not difficult to investigate, and the results will be available soon."
Ronan nodded slightly to thank him, and then walked out slowly. Octopus wanted to persuade him, but He Yueyin stopped him with his eyes, and just asked again: "Do I need to arrange a car for you?"
"No, I'm fine by myself."
Walking in the ground floor area of Shang Ding Building, almost all the people he saw were members of the branch. Ronan may not remember a few, but most of the people here had listened to Ronan's class. It was rare to see him at the branch headquarters on weekdays. , unexpectedly, the greeting also seemed particularly cordial.
For a time, "Teacher Luo", "Professor Luo", "Boss Luo" and other titles were heard all the time.
Ronan remained silent the whole time, without squinting his eyes. He walked over quietly and almost indifferently, as if he would not approach strangers. The ability users who came into close contact with him would inevitably sneer at him. Those who were a little more familiar with him were a little bit embarrassed. strangeness:
"Who provoked Boss Luo again?"
Maintaining this state, Ronan boarded the elevator and chose the nearest flying car take-off and landing platform. The elevator door closed, and his figure was reflected on the smooth steel plate, as straight as a sculpture.
Coincidentally, there was no one else in the elevator except him.
Ronan looked at himself in the mirror steadily, his face stiff and cold, showing a bad mood.
This is not false, no matter who encounters this kind of thing, they can't suppress their anger. However, the mirrored pupils that met Ronan's gaze were so calm and controlled that Ronan himself was surprised.
The eyes are the windows to the soul, and the soul hidden behind this window seems to have been waiting for this scene to happen for a long time.
Ronan stretched out his hand and traced his fingertips across the steel plate. He subconsciously wanted to restore a picture in his mind, but he quickly restrained himself and just nodded at himself in the mirror:
"Your reaction is in line with normal logic."
Including the previous words and requests made to Octopus and He Yueyin.
"This is the result that the person who planned the so-called 'treat plan' hopes to see. But the ultimate goal of deliberately irritating you is not just to make you unhappy, but to use this negative emotion to Driving you to do certain things, controlling your behavior in disguise...What does he want you to do?"
Ronan is having a dialogue with his own mirror image, because at this moment he is the only one who best understands the fundamental logic hidden behind all appearances.
What would an irritated Ronan do under normal circumstances?
Because of the note, the whole world is chasing the Horned Demon?
"No, it's impossible for the other side to know about the 'Soul Cloak' and the global telepathy network. Under the other party's logic, faced with this situation, you will be angry and irritable, but there is nothing you can do... Well, maybe the planner is not I don’t want you to lose your mind, because people who lose their mind can no longer control their behavior, and they cannot be called ‘guests’, but ‘enemies’.”
They will probably control the heat there.
Because of this, although the transaction initiated by the Horned Demon was frantically adding drama to himself, venting his malicious emotions, and clearly intending to blackmail others, the notes used as the traded goods were not in his hands at all. Even if he wanted to do something crazier, it wouldn't be possible.
The separation of the roles of negotiator and delivery person can be regarded as a kind of risk control.
Therefore, there should be no problem with grandpa’s notes.
The elevator went up to the middle of the building, the elevator door opened, and someone came in. He saw a young man in school uniform standing upright in the middle of the elevator, staring straight ahead, his lips still opening and closing slightly, as if he was talking to an invisible ghost.
The scene was awkward for a time - only for latecomers.
Ronan was completely in the state. He felt that his mind was getting clearer and his logic was getting clearer. He was like a student who stepped into the examination room. After seeing the test paper, he suddenly discovered that all the test question types had been done before, and every one of them seemed familiar.
He just walked onto the landing platform, boarded a 100-knot flying car, sat in the last row, and casually selected his destination. He never stopped thinking:
"They were fishing, and Grandpa's notes were just bait, not a 'hook.' If we really wanted to talk about a 'hook,' it was the information that they said they didn't have the money to buy."
"I will bite the hook. Whether they know it is a trap or not, they will let me go to a place as a 'guest' in a relatively natural way. Maybe he also wants to do some cooperation with me?
"So, the Horned Demons are pushed out as targets, and they can use 'normal transactions' as a cover to build relationships from scratch."
Ronan switched back and forth between the terms "you, me and me" without any confusion in his mind. Now he has a clear idea of solving the problem in his mind, and a basic framework or "paradigm". If he looks at the problem in front of him and the opponent's moves, he can predict the corresponding point - all he needs to do is to wait for the facts. Just verification.
Ronan didn't wait too long. When the Baijia Chong Speeder took off and landed for the third time among the high-rise buildings, He Yueyin sent a message on Lingbo Network: "According to the agreement, the first batch of two notebooks for verification have been received. .”
"So fast?"
"Lao You has an old friend in the Lake City branch who is trustworthy and not far away, so he asked that person to help him. This is the video of the scene..."
So Ronan saw two paginated notebooks with obvious defects. The connector that Mr. You asked was wearing gloves and carefully turning over the sticky pages one by one.
Ronan recognized it at a glance. The clear or blurry handwriting on the pages he turned over was the handwriting of his grandfather Luo Yuandao.
"Yes, that's it."
Not only did Ronan pass the video verification, but his telepathy network also quickly locked the location based on the relevant location information, and did more.
In fact, the sensor network in Lake City is showing multi-level and multi-angle information at the same time. In addition to the two notebooks that have been exposed to the public, the horned demon who is feasting in a restaurant near the special effects production base and Luo Yuan who is about to enter the airport have all left continuous and clear traces of their actions on the sensor network.
Ronan also used an almost god-like perspective and a little bit of luck to discover the "delivery man" who was nervously arranging twenty kilometers away from the first delivery location. Of course, there were also other notes he carried with him. , basically the protection measures are quite complete.
The guesses match the facts.
If he wanted to, Ronan could grab all the remaining notebooks now and let this transaction, which was essentially kidnapping and blackmail, go to hell.
But just like he had let go of the Horned Demon before, Ronan still made no further moves. But this time there was no fear and helplessness in his heart, and instead there was a strange sense of expectation.
He needs further verification, but he will not be satisfied with just verification. This game of chess has just begun. It’s not enough to simply watch people’s moves, but it would be a waste of resources to lift the chessboard directly now...
Well, this description is correct.
Ronan also heard a more explicit statement from Gao Tianshi, who is also a psychic, and it seems to be more appropriate: "Playing divination and channeling can lift the skirt of the goddess of fate. How difficult it is to see the wonderful outline of the future! At this time, it is too late to enjoy flirting with her, how can it be easily ruined... Needless to say, good things will come, even bad things will come. After grinding until the last moment, and then performing an extreme heart-beating comeback, it feels so satisfying that this time is not in vain!"
At that time, Ronan just smiled sullenly and did not express any opinions. However, to be honest, at that time, he was in leisurely fascination and silently nodded several likes.
Now, the opportunity he once dreamed of came unexpectedly, and Ronan showed no resistance. The bottom of my heart surged up, filled with the excitement of eagerness to try.
