Chapter 205 Misguided(4/5)
Zhan En smiled and didn't take it seriously.
"Thirdly, since yesterday, the bottom tool I relied on to suppress them - the Blood Bottle Gang has gone through a catastrophe and finally lost its effectiveness and is no longer under my control. At least when it comes to suppressing murder cases, I am stretched.
There is no longer any way to cover the sky with one hand and control the overall situation.
"Also, as you said, Katherine's investigation in Emerald City has alerted the enemy. The enemy realized that not only had I been alert, but I was also chasing after them. Her escape was the last straw for the enemy.
They had to step up their pace to avoid long nights and nightmares - they didn't know what Kathleen had found, let alone what I had mastered.
"Finally, now that the Caguire case has been successfully made into a major case that has filled the city, theoretically we should go all out and strike while the iron is hot, and create more bigger and more sensational incidents and murders before people get tired and get used to it, so as to
To intimidate the people of Emerald City and shake my rule, only in this way can we achieve the greatest results and achieve our ultimate goal."
"Zhan, you..." Thales thought of something and couldn't believe it more and more.
"Situation, occasion, conditions, timing, effectiveness, every factor gives them reason to continue taking action," Zhan En's tone became more brisk, "The five factors added together make it even more important."
He turned to Thales:
"And you - if you didn't lie - and your young master's bodyguards, worked together to kill one of their extreme killers?"
Thales swallowed.
Zhan En smiled slightly:
"Guess, this time, they were desperate and jumped over the wall, but they were lucky enough to survive..."
He glanced at his sister:
"Are you ready to take the bait and bite the bait eagerly? For example, what will be the choice at this moment?"
Biting bait?
Take the bait?
Thales looked at Zhan in front of him, becoming more solemn.
"Fuck you! Jenn!"
Thales turned back:
"Hile?"
Regardless of his image, Heeley raised his middle fingers and pointed fiercely at Duke Iris, which made both of them frown:
"Don't you understand, Thales? Katherine didn't lie to us that day: she was indeed abandoned!"
Zhan En looked around and coughed: "Sister, pay attention..."
The eldest lady asked urgently:
"Why, Zhan? Since it was a secret investigation, as the boss of the Blood Bottle Gang, why was Kathleen so easily discovered by Lausanne II and walked into a trap that was intended to ambush her and split the Blood Bottle Gang?
A fatal trap?”
Zhan said nothing.
"Because this shit is your masterpiece! Kathleen is the abandoned child. You deliberately sent it out in the name of 'investigation' to attract the enemy's attention and stimulate them to take action! I guess it was you who spread the news and let them focus on it.
Kathleen's? You want to remind them: you are alert." Heilai said unhappily.
Zhan En remained silent.
"No, it's not just Kathleen, it's the entire Blood Bottle Gang. They are all bait." Thales also figured it out. He sighed. "The Blood Bottle Gang's internal strife and civil strife in the warehouse that day, including the loss of a piece of loose sand now...
The utility situation is the result of your deliberate laissez-faire and is part of a higher chess game, because you want the enemy to feel that you have lost the Blood Bottle Gang."
Zhan raised the corners of his mouth.
"You!" Xi Lai said bitterly, gesturing with his middle finger again, "We were extremely unlucky that day. We were chased by the ghost killer from the Blood Bottle Gang all afternoon... In the end, it was all your fault? What a loss.
Do you still have the nerve to accuse me of causing the trouble?"
"That being the case, that includes the Caguire murder case this morning. The reason why it spread throughout the city..." Thales deduced step by step, frowning, "These, these are all traps you set, just to lure
What did the enemy take the bait for?"
In the arena, the host gave an order, and the much-anticipated multi-player team battle finally began.
Faced with Hilley's displeased eyes and Thales' vigilant expression, Zhan smiled.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The Duke clapped vigorously, and the applause was mixed with the roar of the entire arena, but it had a different rhythm that Thales would not be confused with.
"You really don't want to place bets? This is a good way to blend into the atmosphere and numb the surroundings." Zhan asked while signaling Ashford to continue placing bets.
"Fuck you!" Heilai greeted in a friendly way.
"I...as the heir to the kingdom, I should be balanced and impartial in my dealings." Thales sighed and used the words he had prepared. "It is not in line with my status to choose sides and place bets.
.”
"Oh, it turns out it's because of your position," Zhan En raised his eyebrows, "I thought it was because of poverty."
Thales only felt that his expression became stiffer.
"But this is the reality, whether it's the Blood Bottle Gang or Kathleen, it's still poor Caguire," Zhan smiled, his eyes filled with an unsettling light, "Most of the time, it's the one with more chips.
Only people can win the bet."
People with more chips...
In the arena, the melee between hundreds of people was huge. Some people fought alone, some formed a team to respond to the enemy, some avoided the enemy's sharp edge, and some leaned against the wall to resist...
Thales was sitting in the Duke's Stand, facing this scene of countless people fighting selflessly, with an ugly expression on his face.
“What about the chips themselves?”
The prince gritted his teeth and said:
"Besides, won't you get tired if you move your chips like this every day?"
Zhan snorted lightly.
"Although your name is Duke, Thales," the Duke said calmly, "but you have never ruled a city or a place, or even a village or a town, right?"
"I... rule Star Lake Castle."
At least...Xinghu Castle is now full of vitality and wild interest.
"Domination? As Heeley said," Zhan said disdainfully, "You buy a cat to catch mice, and you buy a dog to catch cats?"
"This..." Thales was speechless for a moment and looked at Hilley unhappily.
"Don't look at me, someone named Waiya next to you said that." Heeley shrugged unhappily.
Damn it, the cat was bought to clean up the mess Asheida left that night (killing a whole roof of rats), but as for the dog...
He didn't give the order at all. It was all stupid things done by the people below because they were clever and tried to figure out what their superiors meant!
"When you get there, Thales, you will understand and understand," Zhan En was slightly lost in thought, with emotion, "You must do what you can and must do."
The three of them were silent.
Well, I really am not suitable for playing with these dirty things...
Thales sighed secretly.
Maybe I'm not fit to be a king...
Then become a man who can be a king - a small voice sounded in his heart.
Thales frowned.
Maybe one day, you can win, Thales Bright Star.
and……
Sometimes, people who are not in the gambling game win more than people who have chips.
Thales' eyebrows moved.
"How do they bite the bait?"
The prince's words attracted the attention of the other two people:
"Yes, Zhan, you set a trap, good job! But how will they do it? After this murder that shocked the whole city, this event that the whole city is enthusiastic about, what will they do to get you..."
"I don't know," Zhan interrupted him, "Maybe it was after the finals, when I walked down the stands with a happy face to award the championship to the conference champion, or maybe he rode a horse around the field and came to me, of course.
, it could also be during a fierce fight..."
"My father wants the Emerald City and the South Shore, Zhan, not your head."
"You mean," Zhan En said coldly, "it's not just the head on my neck?"
"Of course, if you stand between him and Emerald City, I think he won't mind taking your head first, but..."
"They can do whatever they want."
Duke Iris glanced at Thales:
"Perhaps you can go even more extreme, create a crisis, and let His Majesty the King's most precious son get scratched and slightly injured. In this way, you will have more reasons to intervene in the Emerald City, and the Kingdom's wrath will have more reasons.
To be continued...
