Chapter 65 Another bet?
"So? Carrying out the investigation mission has nothing to do with your coming to Happy Street, right?"
Stussy's face was as cold as ice, and she didn't give Darren a good look at all, and said coldly.
Although she was taken advantage of, she still held on and maintained her majesty as the Queen of Happy Street.
"This incident is of great importance. No clues or information can be let go... In the end, I am just a part-time worker."
Darren raised his hands helplessly, making a gesture of surrender.
"Since the government and the military issued a thorough investigation order, the hunting of candidates for the Imperial Shichibukai has completely stopped. It seems that the murderer must have noticed something and decided to stay away from the limelight for the time being."
"Of course, another possibility cannot be ruled out."
"That means that the people on the list have basically been hunted down by him. The murderer is probably looking for new targets now...if there are new targets."
As he said this, he looked at Stussy with a profound look in his eyes.
"The Five Lao Xing adults... shouldn't there be any other candidates on the list?"
Hearing this, Stussy's smoking movement obviously paused, and her pupils shrank slightly.
This guy... actually guessed it!
A storm suddenly arose in her heart.
What kind of monster is he that can even deduce such top-secret things!
No, he was predicting the actions and reactions of the Five Old Stars!
"It seems that there is indeed a new list..."
Although Stussy tried her best to stay calm, Darren couldn't notice anything strange about her and smiled with satisfaction.
"If that's the case, then I'm relieved."
He put out his cigar, stood up from the leather sofa, and was about to leave.
It is enough to confirm the existence of the new list.
As for Stacey, Darren feels there is no chance she will be informed of the list this time.
If nothing else, the first list of candidates for the Shichibukai was leaked from her last time. With the cunningness of those old guys in Wulaoxing who have no bottom in the city, it is impossible to continue to hand over the new list. to the same group of people.
They will inevitably re-select a group of CP0 members to carry out the selection task of the King's Shichibukai.
"etc!"
Just as Darren was about to leave, Stussy's voice suddenly sounded behind him.
"What's wrong?"
Darren turned around and looked at her suspiciously.
Stussy looked at the Vice Admiral in front of him, his expression changing.
"I see."
Darren "suddenly realized", and then started to take off his military uniform while walking towards Stussy.
"what are you doing!?"
Stussy was stunned for a moment, and then said with angry eyes.
"You called me to stop, weren't you thinking of something?" Darren said with strange eyes.
Stussy: "..."
She glared at him angrily, then pulled out a top-secret document from the safe and placed it casually on the table.
"This is the government's new list."
She deliberately avoided Darren's gaze, with a faint sparkle shining in the depths of her eyes.
"Aren't you going to carry out an investigation mission?"
Stussy said in a pretended relaxed tone:
"Master Wulaoxing told me to cooperate with you, so this new list... I think you also have the right to know."
"After all, with the new list, maybe we can speed up the investigation, right? At least we can take some targeted measures."
However, what she didn't expect was that when looking at the list on the table, Darren showed no sign of surprise. Instead, he suddenly narrowed his eyes and raised a sarcastic smile... looking at herself.
"what are you laughing at?"
Stussy frowned and asked dissatisfied.
She didn't like Darren looking at her like this. She always felt like he was calculating something or planning something famous.
"So what you're saying is...this is the new list of candidates for the King's Shichibukai?"
Darren asked with a half-smile.
Stussy said: "That's right."
Darren blinked and asked again: "Wu Laoxing just... handed you such a top-secret new list?"
Stussy said impatiently: "What's the problem with this?"
Darren suddenly laughed again.
This time, his smile was even more sarcastic.
"Of course there is no problem, but I have a suggestion... I advise you not to have any thoughts about the candidates on the list. Of course, you have to pray that nothing unexpected happens to the candidates on the list, otherwise..."
"How about otherwise?"
Stussy raised her eyebrows in challenge.
Darren grinned:
"Otherwise, you will die."
Stussy was stunned.
A deep doubt emerged in her heart, but with Darren's teasing eyes, she gradually realized something, and the blood on her charming face quickly faded.
"Could it be..."
she muttered in disbelief.
Darren walked over to Stussi and gently took her face in his hands.
"Yes, Wulaoxing has begun to doubt you. Of course, this is more likely just a test."
"If I'm not wrong, this new list... they only gave you one."
"This also means...if the candidates on this list are hunted again, they can infer from this..."
Stussy's face was pale, her back was weakly leaning on the back of the chair, and she said in a hoarse voice:
"They knew that I leaked the previous list..."
Darren patted Stussy on the shoulder, bent down, and said softly:
"So you have to be careful, Queen, don't die easily."
He tilted his head.
"You are my favorite toy."
"I won't be able to let you go if you die."
Stussy was shocked.
She gritted her teeth, raised her head and said:
"impossible!"
"It's impossible for Five Old Stars to doubt me!"
"I have obviously put everything on Lone Wolf, and he is the one who is most suspicious!"
Darren smiled and said:
"How about we make another bet?"
Stussy's expression froze.
Another bet! ?
She was almost nervous about the word bet now.
But her unwillingness to admit defeat still drove her to face the scalp and said:
"What do you want to bet on!?"
Darren smirked and pulled out a phone bug.
Stussy's face changed drastically and her eyes widened.
That was no ordinary phone bug.
That's a... video phone bug!
…
Three hours later.
New world, a desert island.
boom! !
Among the mountains in the distance, a piercing slash of sword energy soared into the sky, flattening a mountain peak in an instant.
The roars of mountain collapse continued one after another, sending up dust all over the sky.
High in the sky,
Stussy looked at the terrifying aura erupting from the mountains with a pale face, her heart was filled with huge waves, and she ignored Darren's hand around her waist.
The top player in the CP0 sequence!
She would never mistake this cold, numb aura!
In less than three seconds, a pirate they captured at random was easily torn into pieces by that guy.
And the target they were targeting was clearly CP0 hidden in the Shichibukai candidate list!
That is to say,
This is a trap! !
If I had been impulsive, angry with Darren, and tried to take action against the candidates on the list... then this "surprise" hidden in the list was just for me!
Wulaoxing... is really doubting himself!
Damn it!
When she thought of this, Stussy was filled with panic.
"Don't be nervous, our secret will not be leaked, you are still safe."
Darren said softly in Stussy's ear.
He could feel that Stussy's hold on him subconsciously tightened a little, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
This is a sign of a closer relationship.
I really didn't expect that...
The actions of those immortals actually pushed Stussi in his direction.
This actually saved me a lot of effort.
