Chapter 134 Going there
Chapter 134 Going there
"Excuse me, I have something urgent to attend to, so I'll have to go now."
As soon as Lynn heard Monica's words, he knew what she was going to say.
He turned and left.
Monica panicked when she saw this.
"Wait, I apologize for my joke."
But you're in real danger right now. All factions are watching you, and they're not all as friendly as the Nestor family. Your only way to survive is to get our help!
Seeing that Lynn remained unmoved, Monica hurried over.
No matter how hard Lynn tried to shake her off, Monica wouldn't budge; she clung to him like a leech.
Lynn suddenly stopped, and Monica bumped into Lynn's back.
Lynn turned around and said with a forced smile:
"Thank you for your kind offer, but I do have urgent business to attend to right now. How about I visit you in person another day?"
Monica paused for a moment, then nodded.
Before she could say anything more, Lynn had already disappeared from the spot.
Inside the cafeteria.
Lynn did not see Bruno.
He sat on a chair to the side, waiting quietly.
In fact, when he learned that Bruno's girlfriend had gone missing, he subconsciously associated it with the possibility of hunting students.
But he immediately rejected the idea.
Even if that group is arrogant, it's unlikely they could forcibly abduct students from their dormitories.
In his view, the most suspicious people now are actually Bruno's girlfriend's friends.
Jealousy is a terrifying thing.
Driven by jealousy and rage, people are capable of anything.
However, it's hard to say, since he doesn't have any evidence yet.
Lynn gazed at the cafeteria exit, waiting quietly.
About half an hour passed.
Lynn finally saw the obese figure walk into the cafeteria.
Lynn hurried to greet him.
"Have they all been found? Are there any suspicious individuals?"
Bruno looked furious.
"We've found them! It was those idiots who did it!"
They were jealous that Tingting had found a noble boyfriend, so they attacked her last night.
I've already contacted the sheriff and they're all under control, but... but Tingting..."
Bruno suddenly broke down, his eyes red and unable to speak.
Lynn's heart tightened, and she asked in a low voice, "How is Christine now?"
"They've gone missing. They were planning to transport her to the outskirts before carrying her out, but they suddenly got scared before they could do it and left Christine there alone. We've sent people to look for her, but we still haven't found her."
Nova, standing to the side, looked somber.
She clearly hadn't expected this outcome.
In her eyes, their relationship was so good.
Lynn fell silent upon learning the truth.
Although it was suspected, this result still left people feeling heavy-hearted.
Now that things have come to this, there's nothing he can do.
Lynn could only offer words of comfort.
"Where did they take Christine to in the countryside? There are relatively few wild animals outside the capital, unless the location is particularly remote..."
"It's the Trial Forest designated by the school."
Nova's answer interrupted Lynn.
"However, there was no blood or signs of wild animals at the scene. It seems that she... got lost in the forest."
Nova was somewhat hesitant to look Lynn in the eye.
She originally thought that Lynn was only targeting her and trying to sow discord between the sisters.
But now, it turns out she was wrong.
Lynn was taken aback by what he heard.
"The Trial Forest?"
Many unpleasant thoughts began to form in his mind.
Could it be...
Lynn glanced at the heartbroken Bruno beside him and cast aside his hesitation.
He's going to go and take a look at the processing plant.
Lynn knew exactly how the rules for hunting students worked.
If Christine was really arrested, she would definitely be waiting to be shipped out at the processing plant right now.
Perhaps she was just incredibly unlucky and was taken back by someone on the way.
With that in mind, Lynn prepared to head to the processing plant.
Before leaving, he comforted Bruno with a few words and then ran quickly out of the academy.
Horse-drawn carriages galloped by.
Lynn stopped the coachman near the processing plant.
He took out his name tag and walked towards the processing plant.
......
Inside the warehouse.
Jeremy put down the scalpel and let out a long sigh of relief.
This living body has completed its mission and has no further use.
Next, all you have to do is throw it into the treatment tank and dissolve it with strong acid, and everything will be fine.
However, Jeremy was a little tired.
The long hours of experimentation left him somewhat mentally exhausted.
He took off his blood-stained robe, wanting to go outside for some fresh air.
As soon as he stepped outside, he saw a familiar figure.
Jeremy's eyes widened.
"Lynn!?"
Jeremy felt a sense of fear instinctively.
"No, what am I afraid of? He couldn't possibly know anything about me."
Jeremy calmed down.
"But what's he doing here?"
Jeremy stroked his chin, staring suspiciously at the figure in the distance.
A guess subconsciously formed in his mind.
Lynn is doing the same thing as him!
As soon as the idea came to mind, Jeremy felt a sudden sense of clarity.
No wonder Lynn was able to defeat himself in alchemy.
So he did it too!
And they did it earlier and in greater quantities than I did!
"Lynn, it seems you really are a lackey of those aristocratic families. Those families are far too smug..."
Jeremy was furious when he learned the truth.
It was this group of treacherous families that caused him to not only lose a set of fifth-tier alchemy equipment, but also lose face in front of everyone!
When people talk about the strongest alchemist of his generation, they always mention Lynn.
Jeremy's reputation was never as glorious as it once was.
"Don't be too happy yet, Lynn..."
Jeremy glared at Lynn with venom.
He knew that Lynn must have climbed the social ladder by coming from a powerful family to be able to participate in activities at the level of hunting students.
He can't afford to offend those powerful families now.
But Lynn was able to really disgust him.
Jeremy immediately took out an optical image recording stone from his storage ring.
He aimed at Lynn's figure and activated the recording stone.
An image template has been created.
Now, with just a blank sheet of paper, he can reproduce this image countless times for the world to see.
Jeremy retrieved the recording stone, a sinister smile creeping across his face.
"Lynn, this is what happens when you beat me."
I'll wait until things come to light and see how much effort they'll put into saving you.
You know, our dear Queen hates this kind of thing the most, hmph hmph hmph...
Jeremy returned to his warehouse in a good mood.
He planned to destroy all traces of himself on the equipment overnight.
Once the sheriff storms into the processing plant, he will definitely search all the nearby warehouses.
He had no choice but to do this in order to avoid being affected.
These devices will only go to waste.
However, these losses were nothing to Jeremy.
It's just a little money; he can have as much as he wants.
He would be content as long as he could disgust Lynn and those aristocratic families.
Jeremy hummed a cheerful song as he wiped away the traces of his sins.
