Chapter 53 Office Countermeasures

"Can Li Xu wake up now?"

"Difficult." Han Yi said, "Du Zhengyi shot too hard."

Zuo Yu sighed, "Now is not the time to blame anyone, Li Xu is a master of thought, even if he regains consciousness now, it will be difficult for us to do anything to him."

Han Yi had nothing to say, he glanced at Du Zhengyi, who didn't say anything either.

The imaginary window on the wall of Zuo Yu's office has been raining today. Zuo Yu looked at the rain scene outside the window for a long time, and the time was passing by every minute. It is not a good thing for anyone.

In the past hour, Zuo Yu seemed to be a few years older, his eyes were bloodshot, his whole body was a little slumped, and he was no longer as calm as before.He rubbed his face repeatedly, as if it would wash away his fatigue. "Qionglin has been defenseless for an hour. We have mobilized everyone who can mobilize to strengthen our defenses, and the battle mages are constantly being recalled."

"Mr. Zuo," Du Zhengyi said suddenly after being silent for a long time, "are our people guarding this building now, or are they patrolling the entire Qionglin?"

"The whole Qionglin." Zuo Yu said, "There are too many secrets in Qionglin, we can't take risks."

"In this case, there will be insufficient manpower." Du Zhengyi said, "The scope of Qionglin is too wide, and patrolling may not be able to solve the problem, and it will also weaken the manpower here."

"It doesn't matter." Zuo Yu said, "I have sent out all the researchers in the laboratory. Most of the battle mages are in the building, and the others are patrolling in groups in the outer woods."

"Oh, then there should be no problem." Du Zhengyi said, he approached the window slowly, stretched out his hand to remove the imitation on the window, and looked down at the white forest condescendingly.He didn't know how Roach got out, but the whole building was under artificial martial law. He must have rushed out when the crystal's defenses were removed and the magician hadn't been mobilized.If he guessed correctly, Roach should be in this forest now.However, thousands of high-level mages also roam here.

"Let's go through the incident again." Zuo Yu said.

He has been caged for the fifth time, not only Du Zhengyi is impatient, but Han Yi has already shown his impatience on his face.The only good that Du Zhengyi can count on is that Zuo Yu's annoyingness can wear away all of Han Yi's curiosity and drive him far away.

"First of all, how did the defense crystal be closed?" Zuo Yu raised his spirits and said in the heaviest tone.

Han Yi's eyes were almost empty, and he could still mechanically continue Zuo Yu's words, "The defensive crystal cannot disappear out of thin air, someone must have taken it away, but now we are not alone, and we inspected Everyone, and no one has come into contact with the defensive crystal recently. Therefore, an outsider must have entered Qionglin today."

"Li Xu is one of the few people who can modify the defense authority," Zuo Yu said gloomily, "The lesson is too painful. We never thought that someone would have such boldness. This is the great strength of Qionglin's defense." Loophole."

"If Li Xu devised such a big conspiracy just to kidnap Luo Qi, isn't that a bit unbelievable?" Han Yi said, "Li Xu could have kidnapped Luo Qi in other places. In order to kidnap a person, he went to Qionglin To kidnap, and even shut down Qionglin's defenses, this is too amazing."

"There are two possibilities." Zuo Yu said, "One possibility is what we just said, they have other purposes besides kidnapping Roach. But because of our timely response, their further purpose failed."

Han Yi looked as if he was about to pass out impatiently.

"There is a second possibility." Zuo Yu didn't see his expression, and continued, "The lotus burner wants to publicly demonstrate to us. What else is better than entering the magician center to kidnap a minor People are more eye-catching? Not to mention that the parents of the minor are still highly respected magicians, they have always actively participated in the public affairs of magicians, and assisted Qionglin to solve many difficult problems."

"This is indeed possible." Han Yi agreed reluctantly.

Du Zhengyi silently listened to their fifth chat, and in his impression Han Yi was withdrawn like most battle mages, he didn't like to participate in such things, and he didn't like to lean close to the archmage.Han Yi's behavior was completely aimed at him. Han Yi has never liked himself very much, and maybe now he has doubts about himself again.

"But I always feel that something is wrong." Han Yi said after thinking, "After all, the person who brought Luo Qi into Qionglin was Li Xu, why on earth did he want to arrest a minor and put him in Qionglin's underground prison? Locked up for a few days? Their department has not given a satisfactory answer to this matter. There are always other more complicated inside stories about this matter. We only considered Roach’s parents and However, he didn't think about whether Luo Qi himself had also received Li Xu's attention. Judging from Li Xu's behavior, it was more likely that Luo Qi happened to know something about him, and he couldn't wait to abuse his power to get rid of Luo Qi. strange."

This is very close to the truth, Du Zhengyi thought silently.

"Considering that Li Xu's identity is likely to be a lotus burner, and Luo Qi is a person with almost no magical ability, he is completely the target of Li Xu's attack." Han Yi said, he was almost approaching the truth step by step, " Even if Luo Qi is not kidnapped, even if Luo Qi falls into Li Xu's hands in Qionglin, it is almost a disaster."

As he spoke, he turned to Du Zhengyi, who looked back at him peacefully.

Han Yi shook his head by himself, as if denying a stupid idea that came to him suddenly, he smiled sarcastically, "If I didn't know Du Zhengyi very well, I knew that he would never care about other people's lives... I I really thought you were the one who saved my little friend."

Before Du Zhengyi had any reaction, Zuo Yu frowned first, "Is this the time to say something like this? I absolutely disapprove of making sarcastic remarks around my own people first when something happens."

Han Yi smiled, "I said it casually, just to play with Du Zhengyi."

"The most urgent task is to formulate a method to retrieve the defense crystal." Zuo Yu knocked heavily on the table with his finger knot.

"I'm going to follow in the woods," Du Zhengyi said, he already understood that he would not be able to get rid of Han Yi for a while. "There are no traces in the building, we can only look forward to the periphery."

"Okay." Zuo Yu said, "Fortunately, you are in Qionglin today, which makes me feel at ease."

"Master Zuo," Han Yi said with a smile, "I will go outside with him to try my luck."
