Chapter 684： interrogation, clues

Chapter 684: Interrogation, clues

At twelve o'clock at midnight, in downtown Chicago, an abandoned warehouse not far from Lake Michigan.

In the warehouse, Jayden, the deputy manager of the Chicago branch of the "Skull Flower" killer organization's customer service center, and the killer Sevin were tied to their own chairs, with the two chairs facing each other far away.

Mona was sitting in the center, still wearing a black mask, typing on her laptop. After a moment, she stopped moving, looked up at Luo An next to her, and whispered:

 “All signals have been blocked.”

Luo An asked Mona to do this mainly just in case.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Wearing a black hood, Roan patted Mona on the shoulder, glanced at Severine who was concentrating with his eyes closed, ignored him, turned around and walked to Jayden, took out the rag from his mouth, and asked:

“You said before that you were willing to pay any price in exchange for your life?”

 "That's right! That's right! Rule 14 of the Killer's Law!"

The rag was taken out, Jayden retched, but he still nodded and said:

This part of the information Jayden said was consistent with the information that Chenier and the others had found before. Luo An narrowed his eyes slightly and asked:

 “Do you know who did this?”

Looking at this sentence itself, I feel that there is nothing wrong with it, and it even feels a bit chicken soup.

On weekdays, there are only about five killer guards in this customer service center, but in the past half month, the number of killer guards has been increasing, and the current number has reached nearly twenty.

 “Where to start?”

Jaden is the deputy manager of the "Vanilla Customer Service Center", which is actually the order-taking customer service center of "Skull Flower". He has only joined this company for less than three years.

 But with the addition of "The First Rule of Killer" in front of it, the temperament of the whole sentence changed instantly, making Luo An more and more curious about the "Skull Flower" killer organization.

Jaden was stunned for a moment and asked tentatively:

Severn is one of the killer's guards. Tonight when Jayden goes home to pick up his things, Severn is both a protector and a guard.

 “Tell me everything you know.”

General Manager Tony is in control of the overall situation and has the power to order the killer guards. The vast majority of people in the company are not killers, just customer service personnel who answer the phone.

 “Everyone is from the “Skull Flower”. You can ask someone. I, Jayden, follow the rules very well.”

 Now only our Chicago branch is left, and the Philadelphia branch on the easternmost side of the Union.

 Manager Tony was very worried that this would be the next place to be destroyed, so he increased the number of killer guards. "

As the deputy manager, Jayden is only responsible for this aspect of business. He heard information such as the killer's rules from several killer guards.

Jaden shook his head repeatedly:

 “Start where you work.”

 “OK.”

An imperceptible strange color flashed in Luo An's eyes. When driving before, Jayden had recited the so-called "Killer Rules".

 For example, “Reputation should be the top priority. People cannot stand without trust.”

Seeing Luo An looking at him motionless, Jayden swallowed and said:

"I heard that among the five branches of the "Skull Flower" customer service center, the Los Angeles branch, the Las Vegas branch, and the Kansas City branch were all destroyed in the past month.

These things can be left for later. Obtaining clues is the primary goal at the moment. Luo An casually pulled up a chair and sat across from Jayden and said:

“Sorry, I really don’t know about this.

I only know that there is a lot of chaos in "Skull Flower" right now, and many killers have posted messages of "temporarily not accepting orders."

 Under normal circumstances, there are only two reasons for a killer to list "temporarily not accepting orders", or the killer is dead and will never take orders in the future.

Either the people on the "Skull Flower" issued some tasks, and these killers all went to do the tasks. "

Deputy manager Jayden stopped after telling him everything he knew. He looked at Luo An eagerly, hoping that Luo An would follow the rules and make a request to let him live.

Luo An did not speak, but picked up the rag again and stuffed it into his mouth.

Jaden: "..."  He dragged the chair to Severian on the other side. Roan sat opposite him and reached out to pull off the rag from Severian's mouth.

Without waiting for Luo An to speak, Sevian spit a blood on the ground next to him, then looked up at Luo An, condensed:

 “You are not a killer.”

Hearing this, Mona next to her frowned slightly, but she wore a mask so that others could not see her expression.

Luo An’s expression remained unchanged, and his tone did not change:

 “Who do you think I am?”

 Severn twisted his sore neck, grinned, and said:

“You have the temperament and skills of a killer, and even your physical strength exceeds most of the killers I know.

 As to who you are, I don’t know, and I don’t want to know.

 In my memory, I don’t have any enemies with similar stature or skill to you, so you probably just want to get some information from me.

 No problem, I can tell you everything I know, but I also have a request. Let me go when the matter is over. I swear by the law of killers that what happened tonight will be completely rotten in my heart. "

 It’s the killer law again.

Luo An raised his eyebrows, and his "emotional perception" confirmed that what Severn said at the end was the truth.

  But this also shows from another perspective that the Killer's Law has a strong binding force on these people, even similar to a kind of belief.

 Some thoughts flashed through his mind, and Luo An asked:

 “In “Skull Flower”, who are the killers who are good at poisoning and using poison?”

"Too much."

 Severn shook his head:

“As a killer, you are more or less capable of poisoning. This is the basic skill of a killer.”

Luo An said:

“Then name the killer who is best at, likes, and uses poison the most.”

 Severn thought for a few seconds and introduced:

“Brenna the Redback Spider, she likes to use some neurotoxins to kill her targets.

"Immortal Kyle", this guy likes to use ricin because it's easy to get..."

 Severn named seven or eight killers who liked to use poison, but none of them had ever used the radioactive substance polonium-210.

Mona frowned. According to Severn, there are many killers who are good at using toxins, but toxins often don't have pistols, so shooting to kill is the most common way for most killers.

Roan’s expression remained unchanged. After Severin finished speaking, he continued:

“The other killers will also be introduced, in order of price from high to low.”

“The first one is “King Baal”, whose real name is unknown, but his code name comes from King Solomon’s seventy-two demons.

It is said that this demon can become invisible, and "King Baal" has a high mission completion rate and can always kill others quietly, so he has this code name..."

 Severn suddenly stopped mid-sentence, frowned and thought for a few seconds, then raised his head again and said:

“By the way, there is also “Blue Eyes Roy”. He is also very capable, very expensive, and has a high mission completion rate.

 According to rumors, this guy has used nuclear materials to kill enemies in the past. This should also be planting poison. "

The word "nuclear material" shocked Mona, and Luo An's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't make any reaction and continued to listen to Severine introducing the information he knew about the killer.

After Severin finished his introduction, Luo An turned the topic to the things that Chenier and others had found out in Las Vegas and asked:

“The destroyed Los Angeles branch, the Las Vegas branch, the Kansas City branch, do you know any information on this?”

"I know."

 Severn nodded and said in a solemn voice:

 “This is a war.”
