Traveling through time as a villain, I became her heart thief

People are coming and going, and everyone is rushing about their own lives.

Who cares about your life and death?

Gu Qinghan turned his head and looked across the street, his eyes scanning the pedestrians.

Suddenly, several figures seemed out of place with the surroundings, which made his eyes sharpen.

There was a team of inspectors there, the new recruits responsible for patrolling the streets of Dieter today.

Catalina does not exist.

You can inquire.

Gu Qinghan's eyes flashed sharply and he walked over.

The wind is howling.

Walking through the noisy streets, the hawking sounds in the downtown area seemed to be automatically cut off, and he only had the target in his eyes.

"Hello, Mr. Inspector."

The moment he spoke, the wind stopped.

The other party was a black-haired boy, about 1.7 meters tall, estimated to be sixteen or seventeen years old, and he was completely a fledgling young man.

At this time, he was playing with the round black hat in his hand, making leisurely movements.

Gu Qinghan put on a kind expression, smiled and said:

"Sir Ombudsman, I am a resident living nearby and I have some questions I would like to ask you."

The young man couldn't help but frown and watched Gu Qinghan put on the round black hat with a puzzled expression.

"Please try to be as concise as possible."

Gu Qinghan nodded with a smile, then lowered his voice and asked:

"Has something happened recently? Why does it feel like the inspector's patrols have become much more frequent?"

This sentence may seem ordinary, but in fact it is to bring the relationship closer by telling the other person's areas of expertise.

Sure enough, the black-haired boy's eyes narrowed, and then he smiled.

"I didn't expect that the residents of Beloved City would observe the work of our inspectors so carefully."

He looked up and down Gu Qinghan's expression, as if he was examining the prisoner, with curious eyes.

"Please rest assured, Overseer, I am a resident of Beloved City."

Gu Qinghan smiled faintly, then took out a gold coin from his pocket and secretly put it into the black-haired boy's hand.

The black-haired boy was startled for a moment, then nodded with satisfaction.

"Dear citizen friend, you are right."

As he spoke, the black-haired boy skillfully put the gold coins into his pocket, and then said with a kind expression:

"The border wall was recently destroyed by the Happy Empire, causing many potential enemies to cross the border illegally, which had a bad impact."

"But dear citizen friends, you are wrong about one thing."

"The number of patrols has not increased recently, but has decreased."

Gu Qinghan couldn't help but frown. He vaguely felt that he had grasped the key point.

"Less? But I clearly -"

"That was the strategy until yesterday."

The black-haired boy leaned over, as if he was afraid of being heard by the people around him, and leaned into Gu Qinghan's ear and said:

"Starting this morning, the patrol number of the inspection detachment will be reduced by half."

Gu Qinghan looked puzzled.

"Why is this happening? Now is obviously the most critical moment."

The black-haired boy showed a meaningful smile, his eyes could not conceal his pride and continued:

"This is precisely because now is the most critical moment."

The confusion on Gu Qinghan's face became even more obvious.

The corners of the black-haired boy's mouth raised. Seeing that Gu Qinghan didn't seem to understand, a hint of pride flashed across his face and he said:

"I'll give you an analogy, and you'll understand immediately."

Gu Qinghan nodded slightly and waited for the black-haired boy's follow-up answer.

"Suppose you were a hunter and you were hunting an animal. When your prey was cornered, would you continue to attack?"

Gu Qinghan looked at the smiling expression of the black-haired boy and fell into deep thought.

After thinking for a long time, Gu Qinghan slowly spoke and gave his answer:

"will not."

"why?"

"Because animals that are cornered can be in danger."

"That's right. So the more critical the moment, the less you can push them too hard."

The black-haired boy nodded slightly, with a hint of praise on his face, and then said:

"Instead of pressing forward step by step, we should deliberately leave a path to induce it to go to the 'path of survival'. Right?"

Gu Qinghan's eyes flickered, and he vaguely understood the meaning of the black-haired boy's words.

At this time, the black-haired boy smiled and said:

“When the prey thinks it has found a way out and flees in a hurry, that is when it is most likely to be careless.”

"If you are a mature hunter, this is the time to shoot."

"So that's our strategy as well."

Gu Qinghan was stunned in place, watching the black-haired boy in front of him wave his hands casually, feeling a turmoil in his heart.

The other party is at most sixteen or seventeen years old, but he can have such thoughts

The Kingdom Supervision Team was more troublesome than he thought.

Vigilance is required.

Thinking of this, Gu Qinghan's eyes began to darken.

"Sir Inspector, may I understand that the real murderer is about to be caught?"

Gu Qinghan's eyes were sharp and he spoke slowly to the young man's back.

The black-haired boy was about to turn around and leave, but his steps stagnated after hearing Gu Qinghan's words.

Slowly turning back, he looked at Gu Qinghan with a bit of surprise.

"You are sharp."

He squinted his eyes and looked at Gu Qinghan, his eyes like those of an eagle.

After a few seconds of silence, the black-haired boy shook his head again, with a sly smile on his lips.

"Dieter Street, No. 38."

"We are very close to the real culprit, and we are just waiting for the other party to reveal his flaws."

"I hope you are not the prisoner we want to arrest, Mr. Citizen."

Showing a meaningful smile, the black-haired boy put on his police hat gracefully, leaving behind a mysterious figure.

Gu Qinghan looked at the back of the black-haired boy, stunned in place.

I endured the overwhelming gastric juices, swallowed the acid, and felt a numbness in my scalp.

Chapter 49 (Additional update!) The final chess game

Dieter Street, 38.

This is the residential building where Gu Qinghan's house is located.

Where exactly is the problem?

Gu Qinghan walked on the street with an ugly expression on his face.

Over the city of Beloved, there were thick rolling dark clouds, and the humid air made people feel tight in their chests, giving them a vague feeling of suffocation.

It's like throwing a person into the sea and forcefully pressing his head down to the surface of the sea and having difficulty breathing.

Gu Qinghan felt his eyes darkening, and he reluctantly walked with his right hand on the rough wall, his legs heavy.

Occasionally passers-by would see his twisted expression on the street.

Those people seemed to have seen a ghost and took a detour to stay away.

"No, you can't expose yourself..."

Gu Qinghan covered his face with one hand, sweating all over his body, to avoid being noticed by the enthusiastic citizens with his distorted expression.

In fact, he was now cornered.

The Kingdom Supervision Detachment was suspicious of him, and even dispatched a large number of supervision detachments to set up a huge pocket.

I'm afraid it's too late to escape now.

Katarina is the squad leader who oversees Dieter Street.According to her style of doing things, all roads leaving Beloved City must have been blocked.

Catching turtles in a urn.

The target is directly at "Hohenheim".

But why?

Catalina actually still doubted him.

Gu Qinghan couldn't understand.

When was the border wall breached?

a week ago.

Catalina knew better than anyone that the murderer could not be Gu Qinghan.

Because he had already moved into the house before the border wall was destroyed.

It is impossible for prisoners to come and live in Beloved City in advance before destroying the border wall.

However, Catalina still considers him her prime suspect.

Gu Qinghan felt his eyes darkening.

From the beginning, Catalina seemed to be targeting him.

Why is this happening?Gu Qinghan began to reflect on what had happened in the past two weeks.

On the first day, when he was hypnotizing Liana, he was caught by Catalina.

In order to prevent his identity from being exposed, he lied that he was an otaku who liked small books and got through safely.

The second time, I went on a date with Liana.

It was also at that time that Catalina began to secretly follow him and was warned not to attack the girl.

However, no conclusive evidence was found.

The third time, I was invited to Richard's house for drinking and secretly had a tryst with Liana.

The next day, Catalina came to Gu Qinghan's house and warned about the destruction of the border wall.
