This sudden change caught the three people off guard. None of them thought that the crystal could fly. After all, when mcflynn showed it before, the crystal looked like an ordinary stone.
"Do you feel anything unusual?"
Qingfeng bazuka and Tu Hongyu shook their heads. They opened their clothes a little and saw the Crystal hanging under their neck and the position of their sternum, as if embedded in the meat.
An Yizhi tried to button it down with his hand. He wanted to know that this thing might not be fun, but no matter how hard he tried, the crystal didn't move. He felt that he didn't want to take it down unless he cut it with a knife.
"I feel like it's sucking my magic."
Although it was very slight, so slight that it could be ignored, an Yizhi still noticed it.
Because he often uses the book of shield, an Yizhi knows the feeling of releasing magic better than ordinary players, so he can detect it. Tu Hongyu and Qingfeng bazuka have no such experience, so they don't find it.
The amount absorbed is very weak. Although this copy cannot use supernatural forces, the total amount of magic of an Yizhi is still very large. Coupled with the magic recovery speed brought by the heart of the dragon, the amount of magic absorbed by the crystal can be said to be very small.
However, no matter how small, this thing also brings a bad feeling to an Yizhi. If I knew so, I shouldn't be cheap and have to open my pocket watch.
Out of the game scenario, everything obtained on the cruise ship may be the help given by the system, which does not mean that the system will not pit players in this regard. It is obvious that an was pit as soon as he pointed out
"What shall we do now?"
Tu Hongyu asked.
An Yizhi thought:
"Crystal hasn't had any impact yet. We can only take a step by step. Let's go to the police station first. I want to ask Hughes again. Maybe we can get some news from him."
They knew only two people in the whole town, one was mcflynn and the other was Hughes who was arrested.
Compared with mcflynn, Hughes may know something the former doesn't know, otherwise he wouldn't resist returning home and even kill.
The two nodded in agreement. They really didn't have a clue. It's not as fast as an Yizhi's brain.
On the way, the three also exchanged the information they just got from the book.
Most of the things that Qingfeng bazuka didn't care about were complex and profound geological exploration reports, which roughly means that there may be a network of very dense underground karst caves under the island. The explorers thought that there was a volcano on the island a long time ago, and the lava brought elements deep underground and flowed through the karst caves, This is why many gem ores and crystals are found in the cave.
The part Tu Hongyu saw was a little interesting.
The part he read was similar to the collection of folk tales. According to the records in the book, it is said that every 10 years or so, the God of the island will wake up temporarily, and an earthquake will occur on the island. The specific time is not particularly accurate, which is related to the position of the stars.
When it comes to the stars, an Yizhi feels more and more bad, because most of the evil gods in kesulu mythology can be regarded as aliens, and whether these guys appear or not is also closely related to the stars.
In addition, the book also explains in detail the crystals worn by the residents of the island.
The townspeople believe that the stones found in the ancestral cemetery can bring them good luck and get twice the result with half the effort. This stone has all kinds of incredible powers, just as it can realize the wishes of its wearer.
However, people who wear stones for a long time occasionally commit suicide due to insanity. The book also says that every time they return home, several residents commit suicide inexplicably. It is said that they made too greedy wishes to their ancestors, which led to mental collapse.
It may be superstitious to put it in other places, but on this island, the above situations are likely to be not only legends, but 100% true!
In this way, it may explain why the daughter of the Mafia can see a retired Navy soldier, because crystal realized his wish.
An Yizhi knows that there is no free lunch in the world. I'm afraid what can see people's wishes is not a good thing. The demons in Jiuyou hell deeply understand this. They rely on "realizing their wishes" to deceive ordinary people to obtain their souls.
The three men exchanged information as they walked. Judging from the clues they got so far, the crystal worn by the townspeople is very worth exploring. When there is no news about the branch mission target "Mallory", they follow this clue and become the only choice.

When he came to the police station near the port, an Yi pointed to the policeman on duty inside:
"We want to see Hughes sent yesterday. We have something to ask him."
I thought the police would agree. After all, Hughes pointed out that they caught him, but the other party said mercilessly that no one could see the prisoner.
This made an Yizhi confused.
Indeed, a murderer can't be seen by any irrelevant person. What if he runs away? But an Yi pointed out that they are not irrelevant people. The policeman with a smiling face yesterday, how can his words be so tough today?
However, an Yizhi didn't insist. It's not a good choice to conflict with the local snakes on the island at this time, especially when many things are not clear.
He left with an angry look in his clothes. The police didn't know. The guy turned around outside and then walked around behind the police station.
Recalling the location of the underground cell, the three found a palm high ventilation window with barbed wire on it. This is due to the excellent positional memory of Qingfeng bazuka. Otherwise, an Yizhi and Tu Hongyu alone don't know when to find it.
Tu Hongyu and Qingfeng bazuka stood guard at both ends of the alley to prevent anyone from discovering their actions. An Yizhi lay on the ground and reached out to remove the rusty barbed wire.
The light came out of the underground cell and fell on Hughes's face lying on the flat bed.
Ann can't help but make complaints about his shape. Is this playing a bad thing for you?
Hughes had empty eyes and stared at the ceiling without blinking. If he hadn't seen his undulating chest still breathing, an Yizhi almost thought the goods had knelt.
"Mr Hughes?"
He whispered his name, and the latter reacted. First he blinked, and then his head tilted, and he saw an finger coming out of the breather.
"Oh, detective"
He said sarcastically, but at least he should be sober than when he caught him. At least he can talk, rather than always shouting 'I'm not going back!' as before.
"I have something to ask you"
"No matter what you want to ask, I will..."
Hughes said. He saw Ann pointing to the crystal embedded under her neck, and then changed his mouth:
"Haha, so you got caught"
He really knows something!
"Mr. Hughes, you and I are smart people. I don't want to talk nonsense to you. You know what I want to ask. Tell me what you know. I can take you away."
When talking to such a guy like an enemy, you must say the exchange terms directly, otherwise it will be difficult to achieve results.
"Take me away? Oh, Mr. ANN, you sent me in yourself. Now you say you can take me away? Do you think I'll believe it?"
An Yizhi knew that if he wanted more information, he must increase his chips, he said:
"We came to the island to find a young man named Mallory Nelson. He went to the island a month ago and then lost his whereabouts. His father also committed suicide due to insanity a month ago, and his father was a resident of the island."
"Then you found strange things on the island after you went to the island."
"If you mean sleepwalking in the middle of the night, then, yes."
"That's not sleepwalking, that's..."
Hughes said he would shut up here.
These goods are really difficult to deal with. You must be cruel
After a little thought, Ann pointed to it. He said:
"You already know our purpose, and I vaguely understand why you don't want to go back to the island, so I'm going to make a deal with you. Tell us what you know, help us find Mallory, and then we'll go together."
"What if you leave me? Thanks to you, I can't even stand up now."
"You can only trust me"
An Yizhi said firmly:
"Usually, prisoners like you need to be handed over to the judicial department. Yesterday, people in the police station said they would contact their own police station as soon as possible, but today we found that there is no telegraph at this police station. You know what this means. They may want to lock you here until they die. When they are insane and commit suicide, it will fall on you "On my head"
This is pure nonsense. I don't have time to see if the police station has a telegram.
Seeing Hughes thinking, Ann decided to add fire to him:
"Think about it, the only evidence that can prove your murder is the evidence of the second homicide. In the first scene, there is no direct evidence at all, and the only evidence is cigarettes. You can find a better lawyer. You don't have to worry about being sentenced to death. You can be imprisoned for decades at most. If you perform well during your sentence, you can get commutation or even bail. If you don't cooperate with us, you can You can only wait here forever. The two aspects are better. I don't need to say more. You know it yourself. "
Hughes frowned and thought. Ann was right. The law is not simply killing for life. There is no room for relaxation. Judging from the current signs, he can keep him alive as long as he finds a mediocre lawyer. If you stay here, it's your turn to go crazy one day, and there are
"Well, Mr. Ann. I've heard of your name. They call you Sherlock Holmes of Italy. I'm sure you won't break your promise."
Unexpectedly, the system has arranged such a loser title for herself. An Yizhi is quite complacent. But the next moment, the system will send a prompt.
[regional mission activation: take Hughes and leave chisa]
I can't keep my promise now. As long as an Yizhi still wants a reward for branch line tasks
