Hearing Fu Luo's words, Lin Yu and Li Nian both showed expressions of admiration.
"That's quite a unique hobby you have."
Lin Yu remarked with emotion.
Li Nian went straight to issuing an invitation: "Interested in joining our 'Free Alliance'?"
Seeing their reactions, Fu Luo looked sowhat displeased.
"Hey, what do you an by that? I'm a 'Detective'... Isn't this approach perfectly normal?!"
But no matter how strange this quirk might be, Fu Luo's previous unintentional actions had indeed been helpful now.
After recalling for just a mont, he put on his Straw Hat and raised his head again.
"Well, although I don't know the aning behind that director's actions, I'm quite certain he was the one who killed his wife and daughter... uh, to be precise, his mistress and illegitimate daughter."
"The evidence is at the cri scene. This Mr. Pang Kedo is suspected because explosive fragnts from his field equipnt were found at the scene, right? At the ti, it was said to be an out-of-control equipnt from a field operative... hmm, it should have been Mr. Pang Kedo's."
"But just from the corpses in the case files, I could see a detail that those people missed... Judging from the charred remains, the mother's posture was protecting her child."
"Out-of-control equipnt instantly blasted through the wall from outside and destroyed the entire room in an explosion. Was she so kind of Sleepless City superhero to be able to protect her child in an instant?"
"Therefore, the explosion or fire that actually killed them must have given this mother so reaction ti—she foresaw the explosion and tried to protect her child."
"And there wasn't enough ti for her to escape with her child."
"And from Director Kid's statent, he suspected it was revenge or an assassination attempt targeting him—because he had just left the apartnt shortly before the incident."
"According to the records in the case files, there were remnants of his briefcase at the scene... At this point, I have reason to suspect that he planted so kind of tid bomb in his own apartnt."
"Subsequently, whether he discovered there happened to be field operatives nearby or had investigated missions in advance, in any case, he used so kind of privilege or thod to tamper with Pang Kedo's weapon and fra him... disguising everything as an accident caused by Pang Kedo."
Furbollo flicked his Straw Hat.
"The above is my deduction."
After he finished speaking, Pang Kedo looked confused: "I can't rember any of this at all... Is that how it happened?"
"I don't rember the case files clearly either, but I think he might be right."
Baron Coleman said in a low voice.
"My deductions cannot be wrong," Fu Luo said seriously, "I suspect this case wasn't thoroughly investigated simply because the perpetrator was a director—no one dared to investigate while he was in power, and when things went wrong, he directly fell from grace and even committed suicide at ho, so others probably couldn't be bothered to investigate further."
"Especially since the wrongly accused person ended up directly on this Despair Train."
"Otherwise, such a simple trick couldn't have gone unnoticed... Truth Corporation, after all, is a company built on technical and intellectual talent—they shouldn't all be a bunch of incompetent good-for-nothings and idiots who couldn't see any clues."
As Fu Luo spoke with absolute certainty, Lin Yu cleared his throat lightly.
"I don't know about others, but the Baron here definitely investigated thoroughly... He just said he was responsible for rescuing Pang Kedo."
Hearing this, Fu Luo glanced at Baron Coleman, who sighed helplessly.
"I'm just a researcher, I might not really be good at deducing these things."
Fu Luo imdiately trembled with fear—whether Baron Coleman was good at deduction or not was one thing, but this guy had just called in a bunch of robots to deal with those field operatives.
He was definitely good at killing people.
But fortunately, Fu Luo had other skills besides deduction.
"You're too modest, Baron... Soone like you is research talent, innovative, driving social progress. What I do with solving cases is just picking apart details, it's all like brain teasers, just clever tricks that can't compare to your great wisdom... Moreover, you've reached a supervisory position, which shows you're also leadership talent—that's even more remarkable, far superior to a 'Detective' like who still needs parental support and can't tell one grain from another."
Fu Luo said with a serious expression.
But Baron Coleman didn't seem to care much.
He seed to have even forgotten the matter of Pang Kedo being the "real culprit" earlier as he looked at his old friend.
"Well, it seems you were frad too—I really shouldn't have doubted you. No matter how far you've fallen, you wouldn't target a ten-year-old girl—your weapon was indeed stolen."
Pang Kedo also seed shocked, though belatedly.
"Ten years old?!"
"How damnable... In other words, that Director Kid killed his own daughter who was only ten years old!"
As he spoke, he even seed sowhat angry.
"Truly scum. Suicide was too easy for him."
Fu Luo waved his hand dismissively, while Li Nian spat: "Definitely scum... Cheating and then cruelly killing his own daughter."
Lin Yu didn't offer any opinion though. Instead, he spoke up to bring the topic back to the dungeon itself: "Now Furbollo has completed two-thirds of his mission, with only the final case remaining... But we don't even seem to know what this last case is about."
"It's fine, we don't have to do it."
Fu Luo was quite open-minded about it. After finishing his deduction, he transford from the confident 'Detective' back into that timid guy.
Looking at the ard personnel around them who were still in their dazed, wandering state, he whispered: "We could just stop now..."
"These people were too easy, which makes feel that the President must have so backup plan... He's the President of Truth Corporation, after all—he shouldn't handle things so sloppily."
Baron Coleman agreed with Fu Luo's assessnt: "Yes, Paris's thods definitely wouldn't be this simple... But precisely because of that, I recomnd you don't retreat now."
"Otherwise, if so attack happens to occur just when your dedicated vehicle arrives for evacuation, that would be really troubleso."
Lin Yu nodded: "I also agree with eliminating all potential hidden dangers."
Before Pang Kedo and Li Nian could voice their opinions...
A voice ca from the end of Carriage Two.
"No need for you all to struggle with this decision—you'll all die here anyway."
At the far end of the carriage, a figure appeared.
Dressed in the sa ard uniform as the eleven people around them—but the style seed more advanced.
Sowhat similar to what Pang Kedo was wearing, but even more sophisticated.
On his chest was a prominent δ symbol.
"The current leader of the Delta Team," Baron Coleman narrowed his eyes, "You ca to lead the team personally... President Paris must trust you quite a lot, not afraid of losing his trusted aide here too?"
From beneath the Delta Team Leader's face mask ca a chilling voice.
"Of course."
"Because I have sufficient strength to kill all of you."
