Absolute Zone Zero: As a corpse, elegance needs no words

"How do you know about ghosts?"

Sarah subconsciously took a step forward, staring at Xuan Li and questioning softly.

This seemingly insignificant guy in front of her became dangerous in her eyes after he said the word "ghost".

The man who calls himself the Masked Fool knows about the ghost and chooses to talk to her directly under the current circumstances.

He was obviously aware of her status and identity.

But what made Sarah feel uncontrollable and fearful was that she had no impression of the person in front of her.

There's not even a hint of familiarity.

"It's a...secret."

The black, red and white colors outlined a breathtaking yet strange and exquisite pattern on the mask. Xuan Li raised his arm, put a finger in front of the mask, and said softly with a smile.

"Secret?"

Sarah smiled coldly, and a cold light slowly appeared in her hand.

"Hey, smile a little. It's not good to look so cold with such a face."

There is still that strong sense of teasing.

The air was filled with smoke and dust, and the noisy sounds of sirens and shouts were everywhere. The armed personnel of Vision Industrial were facing a large number of sheriffs and had no ability to resist at all.

The top leaders can still struggle in vain through various means, but they cannot. The crime of private armed forces has been determined, and they will be tried.

"A mysterious fellow."

"You can bury it with your secret!"

The distance between Sarah and Xuan Li was not far. She turned around and grasped a sharp dagger in her hand, and came in front of Xuan Li in the blink of an eye.

Without any hesitation, the dagger stabbed downwards from above, as if it was going to pierce Xuan Li's heart directly.

Sarah was very fast, and although her every move was elegant and calm like a superior, her own strength was not weak either.

The angle of the dagger is tricky, making it difficult to defend against.

However, Xuan Li just moved his fingers slightly, and the ether dust in the air instantly gathered together, forming a palm-sized black and green shield in front of Xuan Li.

when--

The shield was very thin, but after the sharp edge of the dagger landed on it, it was impossible to break through it.

Sarah's face changed.

The guy who called himself the Masked Fool not only predicted the path of his own attack in a very short time, but also had such a special way of blocking the attack.

How did he do that?

In her memory, there were only a few cases of condensing ether crystals out of thin air.

As Sarah's attack was blocked, in her eyes, Xuan Li not only became dangerous, but also became mysterious.

As if seeing the doubt on Sarah's face, Xuan Li chuckled and said

"I told you, I'm a magician."

"This little trick is just a drop in the bucket."

Sarah chose not to continue attacking because she knew that she couldn't kill the person in front of her.

As the breath circulated, Sarah's expression gradually returned to calm.

"Masked Fool, huh? I'll remember you."

She said this again, but her attitude was completely different from the beginning.

People who pretend to be mysterious may really have some mysterious tricks.

"You brought out the name 'sacrifice ghost' in front of me, but didn't say anything else. What exactly do you want to do?"

"You know, we don't have much time left to talk."

Sarah showed her signature smile on her face, as if she had completely forgotten what Xuan Li had just done.

The sounds around are approaching.

There really wasn't much time left for the two of them to talk.

"Actually, when you brandished the dagger just now with murderous intent, I wanted to put you to sleep forever."

"But then I thought about it again."

"It seems meaningless to let you die like this."

Xuan Li's voice was still calm, but there was a hint of frivolity in it.

He spared Sarah's life not because it was fun or not. If Sarah died, the only connection that could be made would be broken.

In other words, you have to play the long game to catch the big fish.

Xuan Li never forgot to pry into his own secrets.

Everything he did was for this purpose.

The mysterious existence called "Sacrificial Ghost" is also a special kind of skeleton, and may be related to him.

Xuan Li could vaguely feel that he seemed to have fallen into a web woven by others.

However, it seemed that because his tracks were intermittent, the net could not bind him.

Chess pieces, chessboard, chess player...

These are not static.

"Hey, I'm so forgiving. Shouldn't you be grateful to me for having your life saved?"

Xuan Li took two steps back and said to Sarah helplessly.

Seeing Sarah silent, Xuan Li suddenly felt bored. He took off his hat and bowed slightly.

"Miss Sarah, I look forward to seeing you next time."

People cannot move for the time being. Firstly, Qingyi and Zhu Yuan are still there, and secondly, he needs to continue investigating along this line.

As for interrogation information, there is obviously no time for that right now.

call--

A lot of dust covered the area.

"Cough cough cough-"

Sarah frowned, narrowed her eyes, and fanned away the dust in front of her eyes with her hands. When the ethereal smoke dissipated, the Masked Fool was no longer in sight.

"Public Security Bureau Criminal Investigation Special Task Force Zhu Yuan, your name is Sarah, right? Please come with us."

A capable voice sounded from behind. Sarah turned around and saw Zhu Yuan standing behind her with an opened sheriff's ID in her hand.

Behind her, two sheriffs were guarding the awakened Perlman, who was now looking impatient because the TV reporter was snapping at him in the face.

At the same time, accompanied by one angry question after another, saliva rained down on his face. Pearlman tried his best to avoid it, but he couldn't do it because he was restrained.

"it is good."

Sarah looked at Perlman with disgust and nodded to Zhu Yuan. She had no choice now.

Sarah was taken away, the residents were registered and resettled, and order was gradually restored at the command center.

"Disciple, you've cooperated and played, do you want to call me Master again?"

In a corner of the scene, Qingyi watched the people evacuate in an orderly manner, and his mind relaxed. He smiled and said to Xuanli, who had taken off his mask.

The matter was settled and there was no need for her to get involved, so she stayed to control the scene.

After all, there are still residents of Canvas Lane here.

However, seeing as how these people were trying their best to cooperate because they were frightened by Envision, it was obvious that she was not needed.

"Senior, after bringing the person back, what are you going to do with him?"

Xuan Li seemed not to hear Qingyi's words. Looking at the police car gradually moving away, he asked Qingyi curiously.

"There is a complete process for interrogation, conviction, and execution...for these criminals."

Qingyi responded subconsciously, but immediately reacted after he finished speaking.
