Chapter 402: Organizing clues!
Faced with the resentful gaze, Pan Xiaoxiao simply pushed up her glasses and ignored it.
She doesn't have the sentimentality that other girls have.
Working hours, go all out!
And there is the strategy experience of Ao Zhan and others,
She also knew very well what would happen if she was stranded on the beach the next night.
It's not that monsters don't appear,
It's just that the time has not come yet.
"I went to the 'Garden Crystal Casket'."
Li Luo saw Pan Xiaoxiao finish her speech and followed up immediately:
"It was a well-kept garden with a huge crystal coffin in the center."
"It is heavily guarded, with five heavily armored guards stationed there at all times. During the search for clues, six patrols passed by."
"Show your visit token and you can take a closer look at the crystal coffin. You can see a half-human, half-fish corpse lying inside."
"When I went there, the two female players were checking it out. From what I heard from the heavily armored guards, it seemed that as long as they were willing to pay gold coins, they could get benefits from the crystal coffin."
As he spoke, Li Luo pointed at two timid female players not far away.
These two people are considered Wan Jiaxi's teammates.
Because they signed the contract early, they thought their relationship with Lu Li should be closer than that of other players.
So the seating area is relatively close.
"But I didn't hear what the specific benefits were."
"Because I didn't have any gold coins, I didn't offer any bribes. I just simply recorded the appearance of the corpse..."
Seeing the girl's face turn from gloomy to rainy, and she was about to speak in a self-deprecating manner, Lu Li hurriedly rushed to encourage her:
“Well, you did a great job!”
The girl was startled, the guilt in her eyes eased a little, but she still spoke:
"I'm sorry, benefactor. Li Luo is useless and failed to find any valuable clues."
"No, you found an important clue that the heavy armor guards can be bribed. This will be very helpful for our future actions."
Lu Li confirmed it a second time.
"But... didn't my benefactor already find out before that guards can be bribed..." Li Luo whispered.
"Uh..." Lu Li was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to respond.
At this moment, he happened to see two timid female players looking at him, and he quickly said:
"You two, please come here for a moment."
Hearing Lu Li's call, the two female players shrank their necks at the same time.
I felt regretful.
If I had known earlier, I would have suppressed those little thoughts and not peeked at handsome guys.
Now, Boss Lu Li has been targeting me.
I only watched it for less than two seconds...
Although they were terrified, the two female players quickly stood up and approached Lu Li respectfully:
"Boss, are you looking for us?"
"Well, my people said that when you were visiting the 'Garden Crystal Coffin', there were guards communicating with you."
"It is said that as long as you give them gold coins, you can get benefits from the crystal coffin. Is it true?"
The two female players nodded repeatedly:
"Yes, more than one guard, all the guards guarding the crystal coffin have the same idea."
"It's a pity that all the gold coins we had were snatched away by the players from the White Elephant Country. We can't even take out a single gold coin."
While answering, the two timid female players kept staring at their toes and did not dare to look at Lu Li.
"Didn't the guards tell me what the benefits were specifically?"
Lu Li asked.
Even though he already knew the answer, he still had to go through the necessary procedures.
We can't let Pan Xiaoxiao have the idea that Mr. Lu Li can predict the future.
After all, this woman is really sharp.
If he didn't hide it, Lu Li was really afraid that the other party would guess his secret.
"I said it." The timid female player lost herself in memories and spoke slowly:
"They said that if we gave them gold coins, they would secretly open the crystal coffin and let us touch the body."
"Yes, and he specifically pointed out that it was this location..." another person added.
At the same time, he pointed to his lower body with a finger, his face slightly red, and said:
"It is said to be of great benefit."
“Uh…” Li Luo and Alyssa blushed at the same time upon seeing this.
Lu Li wondered what dirty thoughts these girls were hiding in their hearts.
Pan Xiaoxiao, who had known the truth for a long time, looked calm.
She adjusted her glasses and added:
"It's a gland on the mermaid's tail. It's said to secrete mucus, and if you take it, it can extend your life."
"But Yan Qi tried it, and there was no benefit except touching a handful of sticky substance that looked like snot."
"Oh, I never thought that these upright civil servants would condone this kind of bribery?" Lu Li subconsciously made a joke.
But soon, he regretted choosing the wrong person.
Pan Xiaoxiao responded very seriously:
"That's right. Bribery proved to be of no use at all."
"Whether it is in the secret realm or outside the secret realm."
“So I think this is just a cheap way for the secret realm to reduce the amount of gold coins in the hands of players.”
Lu Li pinched his eyebrows.
To hide his embarrassment, he signaled to the two female players to return to their own teams.
After the two of them left, he continued:
"But at least it proves that guards can be bribed."
"Besides, you are not loyal to the prince."
Pan Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes, and a gleam of brilliance flashed in her pupils.
She quickly followed Lu Li's thoughts:
"Mr. Lu Li is indeed very intelligent. He has actually deduced this from the shared information."
"But I still want to add one thing. Strictly speaking, it should be the guards guarding the crystal coffin who are disloyal to the prince and can be bribed."
"Your previous risky behavior had no basis whatsoever, it was just the result of the goddess of luck's favor."
Alyssa looked confused:
"Ah? Isn't it my turn to speak?"
The cat-eared girl's cute reaction can't help but make people smile.
Lu Li nodded and smiled:
"It's your turn, Alyssa."
"Tell me what useful clues you found in the 'Imperial Physician's Medicine Garden'."
"Okay!" Alyssa shook her cat ears and said obediently:
"It's a big medicinal garden, full of all kinds of medicinal herbs."
"In the center of the medicine garden lives an old man with a white beard and a group of young apprentices who help him."
"I heard from that old man that the prince has a kind heart, but his life is very hard."
"First his father, the king, became ill with dementia, and then his mother, the queen, was assassinated."
"My beloved wife died mysteriously, and I was also afflicted with a strange disease."
"It has been a long time since then."
"The guards don't want the king they will serve in the future to be a cripple. Although they don't say it, they all have complaints about the prince in their hearts."
"We all hope that he can restart the abdication system and allow more talented and healthier people to lead the Hatteras Imperial City to prosperity!"
"As the prince's physician, old man Whitebeard doesn't care who becomes king."
"He was devoted to curing the prince's strange disease."
"To this end, I read the world's mysterious medical books and collected the world's precious medicinal materials."
"I have tried my best, but I can only delay the symptoms, not cure them."
"So far, there is only one method left to try."
