MTL - The Mage Behind the Scenes From the Twin Cities-Chapter 10 Quiet night in Picheng
In the dark, Ryan and Cortina walked on the white stone brick floor and walked towards the Noxus embassy not far away.
As they walked, Ryan and Katarina stopped at the same time.
"Picheng is really a city with excellent security." Ryan suddenly sighed.
Katerina sneered: "An airship was blown up in the airport in the morning, and another building was blown up in the evening. Are all the law enforcement officers in Picheng eating dry food, and they will only rush to the scene to clean up the mess after the incident. "
Not far from the two of them, firelight shrouded half of the sky, and the roar of explosives could be heard endlessly. A low-rise building burst like fireworks, and many surrounding buildings were affected by pond fish, making the sound of walls cracking.
"Your Excellency, do we need to intercept it?" Katerina asked.
Ryan shook his head lightly, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
The two of them quietly watched a delinquent girl with blue double ponytails go away smartly, and the girl made a face at them before leaving.
This girl has also appeared in the airport before. According to the information he received before, she is the person who is currently in control of Zaun, Shirko. She seems to be called... Jinx?
And if he read it right, Jinx is holding a hex crystal in his hand. The energy structure contained in it is completely different from the one he gave to Victor. To be more stable, it should be the new hex crystal not shown today. Technology.
"It was the police officer in the morning. Luckily, the only survivor. It seems to be... Gila Mann?"
The two walked to the site of the incident and found Caitlin still breathing on the ground. Katerina frowned slightly, a little surprised.
"Caitlyn Gilamain. Her mother, Mrs. Gilamain, is a member of Parliament for Piltover. She herself has a lot of disputes with her mother because she abides by justice and insists on working on the front line."
Ryan said calmly, pacing towards Caitlin, the ring in his hand lit up with blue light.
Blue raindrops swayed down from the top of Caitlin's head, the water droplets warmed her body, and her injuries recovered at a visible speed.
After doing this, he turned his head to the side, and Jace was standing nervously. He was the first to arrive at the scene other than the Ryan duo, and the explosion took place in his laboratory.
"That's all I can do. She should be able to wake up after a while." Ryan said flatly.
"Thank you for your help, Mr. Meredith."
Jace bowed to Ryan and hurriedly squatted down to help Caitlin up. At this time, the law enforcement officers who arrived late also acted to clean up the chaotic post-disaster scene.
Seeing the charred corpses being carried out, Jace looked sad:
"Mr. Meredith, I heard Mel mention you. But I'm really sorry for showing you the worst of Piltover."
Ryan looked indifferent, looking behind him through Jace. In the shadow of the building not far away, Victor is standing there hesitantly:
"The continent of Valoran is not peaceful. Such things happen from time to time, even the immortal fortress of Noxus. Is there any clue to the perpetrator?"
"It should be done by the people from the lower city." Jace gritted his teeth and said, "Everyone belongs to Piltover, I can't think of why they would do this."
Who are you all?
Ryan shook his head secretly, facing the idealist in front of him, and asked:
"What do you think of Picheng and Zaun? This is my first time here, but neither of what I've heard from the outside world or what I've seen with my own eyes, these two places can't be called a city."
Jace held Caitlin's hand tightly: "My partner is from Zaun, and I have no prejudice against there."
After he finished speaking, let alone Ryan, even Katarina couldn't help but look at him strangely.
If there is really no prejudice, is it necessary to emphasize this sentence?
Just when Ryan wanted to say something, Caitlin opened her eyes weakly:
"Jace?"
"Caitlin, that's great, fortunately you're fine." Jace breathed a sigh of relief and gave Ryan an apologetic look.
"I... how are they?" Caitlin struggled to get up, but her body's weakness made her unable to move.
"Miss Gilamann, my magic is only to help you recover from the trauma. The impact of the explosion on your body will have to keep you up for a while." Ryan said.
"Who are you? ... The Noxians in the morning, why are you here?" Caitlin frowned, she didn't have a good impression of Ryan and the two of them.
"Caitlin, it was Mr. Meredith who saved you. As for the other law enforcement officers..." Jace flashed sadness, his eyes unconsciously looking like those corpses.
"how is this possible!?"
Following his line of sight, Catelyn also saw a charred black lying not far away, her pupils shrunk, and she almost fainted again.
"Do you have any clues? This attack is very unusual. Hex crystals were stolen, and several important research materials were also taken away."
Jace's face was urgent, what was lost was very important. If they were obtained by those who could use them, it might lead to war.
He only assured Heimerdinger and Meyer today that there would be no accident with Hextech, and he was a little ashamed that there was an accident in less than a day.
This can't help but remind him of what happened a few years ago. It was also the theft of his hex crystal by the people in the lower city, the explosion of the laboratory, and a series of events that followed.
But that time the result was not bad, let him know Mel and Victor, and successfully researched Hextech.
But this time...hope it's a good ending...
Jace thought wildly, waiting for Caitlin to recall what happened before.
"Let me think..."
Caitlin was lost in thought, sometimes frowning, sometimes distressed.
After a while, she felt agitated all over her body, and she blurted out excitedly:
"I remembered, and it was definitely made by the people from the lower city! It was a group of people who blew up the airship in the airport this morning."
Jace also asked eagerly, "Is there a target of suspicion?"
Caitlin shook her head in distress: "I only know that the perpetrator will draw a monkey sign, and that sign is also on the airship in the airport. And I vaguely saw a blue-haired woman before I fell unconscious. I don't know the rest."
"It's okay, knowing this information is enough." Jace comforted.
"You don't need to worry about this matter, I'll check it out myself, the lower city is full of dirty mice." Caitlin raised her brows slightly, her face stubborn, "Although I didn't have the chance to interrogate the prisoner in the airship at that time. , but another gangster Mr Meredith caught, and I got a lot of information from him."
"Can I hear his origins?"
Ryan was interested, he didn't think the green-haired mouth was very strict at the time.
"Of course." Caitlin didn't mind either. "That guy belongs to the Wildfire Gang. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is said to be the biggest gang force in Zaun."
Hearing this, Ryan's expression gradually became weird.
If Noxus' information is correct, the biggest gang force in Zaun should be Hilko, and the Wildfire Gang can only be considered a second-rate.
"They thought that Shimmer should not exist in this world, so that operation was to destroy Shimmer on the airship."
"Who is the person behind Shimmer? I heard from Mel that the ship was full of contraband." Jace said with disgust.
"He doesn't know that. Originally, we captured a prisoner of the forces behind Shimmer. But at that time, Senator Myrdalda was busy sending Shimmer to the Noxians, and the sheriff wouldn't let me interrogate him. I can't help it." Caitlin looked regretful.
It seems that she has a good relationship with Jace, and Caitlin added: "But I'm not going to give up! I'll investigate it myself."
"Don't mess around, people in the lower city are very dangerous. I will propose in the parliament tomorrow to thoroughly investigate the lower city. I believe that Meier and Professor Heimerdinger will agree." Jace said firmly.
Ryan quietly listened to the conversation between the two, looking at a shadow behind Jace with playful eyes. Not knowing when it started, the person in the shadow...disappeared.
"Mr. Tallis, Miss Gilamain. It's getting late. Have a nice evening."
Jace nodded solemnly to Ryan: "Mr. Meredith, on behalf of Piltover, I would like to express my gratitude for today's matter, and thank you for your help."
"Small problem, I hope Picheng can have a quiet tomorrow."
Ryan waved his hand and took Katarina away without looking back.
Piltover...things seem to be getting more interesting...
