Although according to the results of the discussion between the two, the attack on Shuiyue may not be some kind of Origin Stone skill, this possibility cannot be ruled out.

Otherwise, what could it be if it were not Origin Stone skills?Power?

Finally, they took a photo of Shuiyue's wound for record keeping, and then asked Shuiyue to grow his arm back. After all, the wound looked quite leaky.

"By the way, do you have paper and pen?"

Moving his newly grown right arm, Suiyue suddenly asked.

"What do you want that for?"

Although he felt a little strange, Li Ang still turned over the table and found a gel pen and a stack of white paper.

"Thanks, please wait for me for a few minutes."

After taking the paper and pen, Shuiyue lowered his head and began to smear on it.

The room suddenly became quiet, and apart from the sound of water running in the bathroom, the only sound left was the rustling of paper and pen.

After waiting patiently for a while, about five or six minutes passed, Shuiyue finally stopped what he was doing.

"Okay, it's done." Looking at his masterpiece, Shuiyue nodded with satisfaction, "That thing almost looks like this."

With that said, Shuiyue handed the sketch he drew to Li Ang.

Neither Li Ang nor Adele expected Shui Yue to be so skillful, and they felt somewhat surprised.

This sketch is more abstract than Shuiyue's previous description. At least they all now know what the magical creature looks like.

However, as she looked at it, Adele seemed to remember something, and suddenly she frowned.

"...Do you think this looks a bit like what you encountered in Tianyue Mountain?"

"Have it?"

Li Ang was stunned for a moment and compared the sketch drawn by Shui Yue with his own memory. He didn't find any similarity between the two.

However, upon hearing this, Shuiyue nodded thoughtfully, "Really... When you say it like that, these two things do seem to be somewhat similar."

"But apart from the appearance, there are no other similarities." Shuiyue complained, "And the one I met today seems to be more powerful... at least that's what I think."

The stars falling from the sky in the Tianyue Mountains are a bit hard, but Haiji's toxins can have some effect.

Unlike the previous magical creations, just one attribute of immunity to physical attacks completely defeated all of Shuiyue's fighting methods.

"So how are they similar..."

Seeing that Adele and Shuiyue had reached a consensus inexplicably, Li Ang said with a little helplessness.

"Leon, you must have been using perception at that time." Adele thought for a while and said, "But we all observe through our eyes. Because of the difference in perspective, it may have led to cognitive deviations between us. "

In fierce battles, Li Ang is still more accustomed to using perception to capture the enemy's movements.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that he only took a few glances at those structures and left the most basic impression in his mind. He did not observe them as carefully as others. It makes sense that there are some details that he did not discover.

But Li Ang still wanted to know why they felt the two were similar.

"Well...how should I explain..."

Adele seemed extremely confused, "It should be their style, right? Their styles all give people the same feeling, they are all that... special style that does not belong to the current era."

Unable to find a more accurate adjective, Adele hesitated for a long time before stammering out such words.

"You mean the creations of the ancestors?" Li Ang frowned.

"Well, that's probably what I mean." Adele nodded slightly.

Shui Yue on the side also interjected, "I don't know what the ancestors created, but those two things give me the feeling that they were made by the same people."

That's not good news.

First of all, it must be clear that the creations of the ancestors are very precious, very precious, especially the creations of the ancestors that can still function normally.

In order to compete for such creations, it would not be surprising even if a small-scale war involving several countries broke out. For example, the war between Bolivar and Colombia, there are rumors that these two countries are fighting for a certain The right of ownership of the creations created by the ancestors.

Although this kind of gossip is nonsense, it also shows how precious the creations of our ancestors are.

"...I hope it's just a counterfeit." Li Ang said with a headache.

If it is an authentic creation of the ancestors, if the news is accidentally leaked, the local company led by the Grand Knight will probably beat the dog's brains out.

If not, it means that someone has mastered an artifact created by the ancestors and successfully made a replica, and it may also be related to the 'stars' above their heads.

Li Ang couldn't tell which situation was worse.

At this time, the sound of running water in the bathroom finally stopped. After a while, Deste, who put on a bathrobe, opened the door and walked out.

Compared with when she first entered the door, Deste's face had obviously improved a lot, but she still looked a little pale.

Wearing thin pajamas and running for more than ten miles at a speed of more than 60 miles, the severely stimulated body will not recover in a short time. Deste must have suffered a serious illness recently.

"How do you feel now?" Li Ang asked.

"I feel...fine, my body has basically recovered." Deste said slightly cautiously, "Thank you for saving me."

In the previous attack, Deste was not harmed at all, and Suigetsu protected her very well.

The physical discomfort was just caused by the cold wind blowing for too long. After taking a hot bath, it was basically nothing serious.

"That's just right. We have something to talk to you about. Let's sit down first."

Nodding, Deste sat on the single sofa next to the others.

Maybe it was because fear still remained in her heart, maybe even Deste herself didn't notice that her body was trembling slightly.

Glancing at Deste, Li Ang thought it would be better to give this unlucky girl some buffer time first. She looked like she would cry at any time now.

So Li Ang stood up and walked towards the kitchen while asking, "Would you like something to drink? Coffee or black tea?"

Xintrea prepared a lot of things in her safe house so that she could survive even if she didn't go out for half a year, including drinks such as black tea, coffee, and wine.

However, it has obviously not been used here for a long time, and many things are approaching the expiration date, so Li Ang uses them without any courtesy.

"Coffee is fine, thank you."

Crossing her arms across her chest, Deste whispered, completely missing the confident look she had a few days ago.

Li Ang shrugged, turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

After Li Ang left, perhaps because Adele and Shuiyue both looked younger than Desire, the atmosphere in the living room relaxed significantly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Adele spoke to Deste, "Miss Deste, I'm really sorry, there are no clothes that suit you right now. Please be patient for a while, and I will help you prepare something that fits you as soon as daybreak." clothing."

Neither Adele's spare clothes nor the clothes Xinteleia left here fit Deste well.

What she is wearing now is a loose bathrobe that Adele found.

"Huh? Well...I'm fine with it. There's no need to trouble you."

Deste said in a panic. In her opinion, a small matter like buying clothes could be done at any time. How could she bother her savior?

"I have memberships in several ready-to-wear stores, and I can ask them to send over their finished clothes."

It was a good idea, but the only problem was that the lawyer seemed confused and didn't realize her situation at all.

"But Miss Desire, if you do this, won't you expose your position?"

A simple rhetorical question made Deste's expression freeze on her face.

It seems to be true... If her identity information is used, it will not be too easy to locate her. Deste has not forgotten that she is probably being hunted by a large force.

"Then, I'll trouble you." Deste said weakly, "Also, just call me Deste."

"no problem."

Seeing that they seemed to have almost finished talking, Li Ang, who had been waiting aside for a long time, also came over with a tray.

"Your coffee."

A cup of steaming coffee was placed in front of Deste.

Deste thanked her, picked up the coffee and drank it in small sips.

"This is yours."

Anyway, it went smoothly, and Li Ang also made a cup of instant coffee for others.

After returning to his seat and sitting down, Li Ang gave Desire a few minutes to mentally prepare, and then said under her nervous eyes, "Okay, now we should talk about business."

"Miss Desire, can you show us your investigation results?"

Chapter 47 Desire’s Plea

Following Li Ang's words, the atmosphere between the few people suddenly became subtle.

What is certain is that the reason why Deste was attacked tonight was definitely not because there was something wrong with Li Ang.

Li Ang's actions are very covert. Apart from those who currently live in Linguang Manor, the only people who know his true identity are Dr. Kelsey from Rhode Island. Even the top management of Ball Pharmaceuticals does not know who he is. doing what.

The only possibility is that the lawyer's problem is her own. Maybe she can find something from her investigation results.

However, Deste held the coffee cup, pursed her lips tightly, and her eyes kept wandering on the floor.

It was obvious that Deste was unwilling to hand over her notebook.

"I……"

Deste opened her mouth but hesitated to speak.

For Deste, it was more than just a notebook. There were many shady secrets in it, which she had investigated using the internal channels of Chang Rein Law Firm. If it were accidentally leaked, her career would be in danger. My career is completely ruined.

And...if Deste guessed correctly, someone should have seen her notebook.

Deste looked at Shuiyue with a somewhat complicated look. It was not just enemies who had appeared in her home before.

Now, I'm afraid I just want to express my attitude.

Shuiyue was keenly aware of Deste's gaze, and calmly looked to the side, pretending that she didn't hear anything, and just crossed her legs and whistled.

"..."

Seeing that Deste was still hesitant, Li Ang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

To be honest, Deste was more or less unable to cry after seeing the coffin. If Shuiyue hadn't happened to save her, Li Ang would have seen her obituary on the official website of Chang Rein Law Firm at dawn.

But even though she has already encountered a life-and-death crisis, this guy is still not planning to give up. I really don't know whether to say that she is not afraid of death, or that she is loyal.

As Deste remained silent, just when Li Ang hesitated whether to act tougher, Adele suddenly handed her cell phone to Deste.

"Dest, I know you must be very confused right now. But don't worry, I just saw this on the intercity network, and I think it is necessary for you to take a look."

Perhaps in order not to irritate Deste, Adele lowered her voice.

Deste hesitated for a moment, but she still put down the cup and took Adele's phone.

As Deste's fingers continued to slide down the screen, her face became more and more ugly, even worse than when she first entered the door.

"How could this happen...how could they..."

Deste murmured to herself, looking like she was greatly shocked.

"What did you show her?"

Li Ang couldn't help but be curious, and asked in a low voice in Adele's ear.

What could be on Adele's phone?To be able to scare Deste like this, Li Ang felt that even if he were to scare Deste, Adele's trick might not be as effective.

"It's just a piece of news that was released not long ago."

Pushing Li Ang away slightly, Adele said in an equally low voice, "What happened at Deste's house has been discovered. Changbo Law Firm issued a notice half an hour ago, announcing the death of gold lawyer Deste. Sette tragically passed away in this terrorist attack."

"I'm going, so ruthless?"

Li Ang couldn't help but clicked his tongue, was Deste directly 'dead'?

Li Ang was still thinking just now that if Shuiyue hadn't rescued her, he might have seen her obituary tomorrow morning.

Unexpectedly, Li Ang still underestimated the speed of those people. Calculating the approximate time, maybe just a few minutes after Deste was attacked, Chang Rein Law Firm could not wait to announce the news of Deste's death. There was nothing fishy about it. , Li Ang doesn’t believe it anyway.

But this is not a bad thing for them, it just helps Deste recognize the reality.

"It seems like I have no other choice."

Deste sighed dejectedly and handed Adele's phone over, "I'll tell you everything you want to know."

Li Ang also took the phone and looked at it, and found that it was an announcement jointly issued by the Knights Association, Chang Rein Law Firm, and Meshko Group.
