It's not too much to say that a beauty is a little bit stronger
Chapter 374 Thieves (13)
The blond man smiled and continued to explain, "It's the powerful. They feel that Kaito K has taken away their attention. You know, these people care most about their own interests and reputation. Nowadays, many people go to museums not to see the so-called collections, but to see the traces left by the Kaito."
He paused, picked up a dumpling with his chopsticks, and said with a hint of resignation, "They would rather believe that K is an omnipresent threat than face the real problems of these museums. To put it bluntly, K is just touching their halo."
Xiao Huai did not respond immediately, but just took a sip of soy milk, with a hint of deep thought in his eyes.
After a while, he said casually, "Really? Where would such a person be?"
Although Xiao Huai did not mention the location of the powerful and wealthy by name, the blond man easily associated them with the powerful and wealthy when he heard this question.
“They’re everywhere,” he said, his tone tinged with resignation. “These people are everywhere, in a wide range of sectors: museums, politics, business… In short, they’re everywhere you can think of.”
He paused, as if remembering something. "However, these powerful people don't deal with our bureau. They work directly with the General Administration. The orders to arrest K were all pressured by them."
He said this with a look of helplessness, even powerlessness, "After all, the bureau is just an executor. The real focus is what they want to protect their own interests."
So arresting K was not for the so-called legal justice, but because he touched their interests.
The blond man curled his lips and smiled, "K's existence is a huge threat to them."
The blond man took a few bites and only some leftover food remained on the plate.
He wiped his mouth, leaned back in his chair, and couldn't help but sigh: "The food in this restaurant is pretty good. It seems you have good taste. I rarely eat oriental food, but the buns here are really good."
Xiao Huai just smiled faintly and said nothing more.
The blond man stretched, then stood up and patted Xiao Huai on the shoulder.
"Well, it's almost time to go back. We need to go to the museum and start planning."
He took out his phone to check the time, glanced at Xiao Huai, and continued, "You're in charge of the area on the second floor, D3. That area is quite complicated, so set up a few more traps. I heard that K might escape from there."
Xiao Huai nodded slightly, his heart still as calm as water, without showing any fluctuation on the surface.
----
Xiao Huai came to the D3 area on the second floor of the museum alone. The lights in the corridor were dim and silent, and only his footsteps echoed in the empty space.
Various precious cultural relics were displayed around, but his attention was not on these exhibits, but on the hidden corners of this area.
Xiao Huai wants to place a few hidden cameras and some traps here, and once K accidentally touches them, it will trigger the hunting net.
Many players also rushed to the museum. It was the first time they saw such a magnificent building, but at the same time, they began to feel a little anxious.
With so many collections, how do you find the most valuable treasures at King's Lynn Museum?
Moreover, the standards for the so-called treasure of the museum are different in different people's minds.
This is why players feel a little pressure.
Now many people are secretly planning to try using their own special abilities.
But it's only the second day, and no one has realized that they will be wiped out after using their superpowers.
Maybe after the mission is over, there will be a few fewer players.
In an inconspicuous corner, Xiao Huai's attention was attracted by a bronze artifact.
It is displayed in an unassuming display case.
There was a layer of dust on the display case, as if it was a cultural relic that had long been ignored.
Xiao Huai walked closer to the bronze artifact and looked at it carefully.
The text on the exhibit's description is vague, only stating that the artifact is a relic of an unknown ancient civilization, without mentioning its origin and history.
Another piece of collection with no provenance.
Xiao Huai frowned slightly as he noticed a tiny crack on the base of the bronze ware.
This crack does not seem to be formed naturally, but more like a mark left intentionally by humans.
Xiao Huai squatted down and carefully observed the crack, and then he found that this place was in a blind spot of surveillance.
Xiao Huai's mouth corners rose slightly.
It turned out to be the case.
Monitor blind spots and cracks left by humans.
The hint is indeed obvious enough.
Xiao Huai didn't waste any time. After confirming that there was no one around, he quickly and carefully pried open a corner of the base with his fingers.
With a slight "click", a part of the base gently opened, revealing a folded piece of paper.
Xiao Huai carefully took out the piece of paper, unfolded it, and what came into view was a detailed list.
There were several names on the list, each with a string of numbers in front of it.
Xiao Huai knew that this list was no ordinary one. It might be the key clue that K wanted him to find.
He quickly glanced through the list, folded the paper, and put it safely in his pocket. His expression remained calm, but he had already begun to plan his next move in his mind.
The history book he had obtained before quickly flashed through Xiao Huai's mind.
Perhaps, the background of these names is hidden somewhere in the book, waiting for him to decipher.
Xiao Huai's mouth corners rose slightly, and his fingers tapped lightly on the list in his pocket.
The process of deciphering the code step by step was like being in a subtle game, and this feeling made him feel that everything was becoming more and more interesting.
At this moment, a sudden scream came from the first floor, instantly breaking the surrounding silence.
Xiao Huai frowned and quickly turned his gaze downstairs.
He took a few steps towards the stairs, and when he reached the first floor, the scene before him made his eyes freeze slightly.
A player was lying on the ground, his face pale and obviously lifeless.
Another player stood beside the corpse, his face filled with disbelief, muttering to himself, "How could this happen? How could this happen..."
The surrounding players quickly gathered around, and whispers echoed in the air.
Xiao Huai took a step forward and looked down carefully.
Right next to the corpse, he keenly caught a glimpse of something strange.
A line of golden engraved text appeared faintly under the corpse, flashing by as the light changed.
"Cause of Death: Unauthorized Use of Supernatural Powers"
Xiao Huai raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes became sharp in an instant.
There was a hint of meaning in these words that was hard to ignore.
He paused on these words for a moment, and questions quickly emerged in his mind.
Unauthorized? Could it be that in this instance, you can actually use supernatural powers, but you just need some kind of authorization?
