Chapter 482 Intermission: Praise, experts, good ideas

When the program ends, the screen that has been cut off from the power will naturally turn into a black screen.

Until the end of the show, the lawyer's fate did not change. Although he tried his best to save himself, all his efforts were in vain. He was eventually electrocuted to death by the so-called "The Reckoner".

As an excellent citizen representative of Whitewash City, Xia Lun has never objected to killing, but on the other hand, he does not like torturing people. He will still feel a little uncomfortable when he sees someone being tortured to death like that.

Xia Lun shook his head, then waved outside the door.

"You two, come and have dinner with me; Carson, let Her serve two more main courses."

As soon as these words came out, Security Captain was obviously stunned for a moment, while Carson immediately explained Xia Lun's instructions to the maid behind him, and then they both sat down at the dining table obediently.

"Uh... Your Excellency, this "The Reckoner" is so powerful, should we strengthen some security?" Security Captain asked.

Xia Lun smiled, "Of course not, this matter must have nothing to do with us, just watch the show. Haha, Zeno" should be restless about this so-called "The Reckoner"."

"Sir, do you think there was animosity between the so-called the Reckoner" and Zeno"?" the butler asked the question at the right time.

"Obviously, I think "The Reckoner"'s next target will most likely be someone else on the line of "Zeno"."

"Do you think "Zeno" himself is in danger?" the butler continued to compliment.

"That must be true." Xia Lun said happily, "What the Reckoner is doing now is actually a public death threat to Zeno, and it also provoked a wave of the Internal Affairs Department. Hey, the next trend of this show is much more interesting than torturing people. Finally, someone has sanctioned Zeno!"

"That's it." The butler said with admiration, "So, this "The Reckoner" is so arrogant that he plans to fight against the Internal Affairs Department and Zeno alone."

"He may not be arrogant, and he may not be alone." Xia Lun shook his head, "Maybe this is part of his strategy. His high-profile appearance is probably to attract everyone's attention, so as to cover up the actions of his accomplices."

"Is this really the case?" There was a hint of shock in the butler's tone.

At this time, Security Captain, who was sitting on the edge of the table, was dumbfounded. Listening to the conversation between Xia Lun and Carson butler, he finally understood why Carson could be the butler.

"Ding-ding-ding-" Suddenly, the phone next to the TV rang.

Xia Lun took a sip of coffee. Since he was in a good mood, he waved to the housekeeper, then walked to the phone and picked up the receiver.

Before he could speak, a trembling male voice with obvious fear came from the phone.

"Excuse me... Is expert Xia Lun here?"

Xia Lun was not in a hurry to speak. He deliberately waited for five seconds before speaking slowly.

"I am."

"Ah!?"

An exclamation came from behind the microphone, and after a few seconds, the trembling male voice took a deep breath.

"Expert Xia Lun, I came to contact you on behalf of Internal Affairs Department Special Operations Division. Well, have you watched the program of Far Mountain TV?"

"Of course I did."

"Huh..." the man behind the phone was obviously relieved, "This program has obviously threatened the stability of the Grand Alliance. Mr. Xia Lun, as the Internal Affairs Department Specially Appointed Expert with the highest salary level, we hope that you can contribute to the stability of the Grand Alliance and help us catch the fanatic who calls himself the Reckoner."

"..." Xia Lun was silent again.

To be fair, he didn't want to worry about "The Reckoner". After all, it obviously had nothing to do with him. And from a darker perspective, he actually wanted to use "The Reckoner"'s hand to kill the hunting maniac "Zeno".

But it is obviously not appropriate to directly reject Internal Affairs Department. After all, from a certain perspective, his Game Card all came from the Internal Affairs Department.

, and this department indeed played a lot of role when he fought against "Foresight Club" in the past.

After weighing for a moment, Xia Lun spoke again.

"Is there anything I can do?"

"Yes!" The man behind the microphone jumped for joy, "Can you help the technical department find the broadcast base station of the Reckoner"? With the guidance of a famous scientist like you who is well-known throughout the Grand Alliance, they will definitely be able to track the Reckoner very quickly!"

"..." Xia Lun suddenly fell silent.

Internal Affairs Department Officer, who made this decision, is so wise that he is comparable to White Line. His level of education in this life is beyond prenatal education! Asking him to guide professional technicians is tantamount to asking Dwarf to guide elves to increase their height!

"Well, actually I can join the action department." Xia Lun said after considering, "I actually..."

"You are the core scientist of the entire Grand Alliance, and there is absolutely no room for error!" The man behind the microphone became tougher, "Please rest assured, Mr. Xia Lun, ensuring your safety is the priority, far before hunting down the Reckoner!"

At this point, the man on the microphone paused, took a deep breath, and then said again, "Your Excellency Xia Lun, my name is Lunte. The captain has just appointed me as your special liaison. My task is to ensure your safety during this period."

"Great, now there are two Security Captain..." Xia Lun couldn't help but tell a cold joke in a low voice.

"Ah?"

"It's okay." Xia Lun narrowed his eyes slightly, "Can I bring other people to participate in the investigation?"

As a flexible-thinking Merchant, Xia Lun naturally understands that there are always more solutions than difficulties.

Although he is illiterate and has not studied prenatal education, he can fully utilize his financial ability and directly hire people with sufficient professional level.

And even the hired technician can't help it. He can also directly open "Tracking Focus", first find the answer to the question "Where is the Reckoner", then communicate with the hired technician, and then conversely create a fictional technical reasoning route!

"Of course there is no problem." Lunte behind the microphone said in a relaxed tone, "But you have to pay attention to confidentiality issues. If they have problems, you may have to bear some responsibility in the end."

"Okay, I understand, how should I contact you?"

"Your Excellency, the headquarters of the special task force is temporarily set up at the Public Security Bureau in Whitewash City. You just need to come here before the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, see you then." After saying that, Xia Lun hung up the phone directly.

He stretched, then looked at the dining table, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

", Her Hasn't the food been delivered yet?"

The housekeeper immediately stood up and said, "Sir, I'm going to hurry you up."

At the same time, exit "Hedge Bridge" on the outskirts of Whitewash City.

Whitewash River The water is gurgling, and the broken water surface reflects the deserted river beach. There are only low street lamps on the road on the river beach, and flying insects lingering under the street lamps.

Suddenly, the bright yellow light beam of the street lamp suddenly swayed, and in the scattered light, a slender figure in a black cloak appeared out of thin air under the street lamp as if the frame had dropped.

The night wind howled by, gently blowing off the hood of the cloak, and a few strands of gray-blue hair fluttered in the wind.

The next moment, a white palm pressed the edge of the hood, and Renee's face flashed under the hood.

"This is the fourth round of Scenario. As long as I pass this round of Scenario, I can see Xia Lun again..." She pursed her lips and thought to herself.
