Chapter 71 Snacks
"The giant's skin should have the function of self-repair. That night, after the cardinal took action, he fell."
Lu Li recalled all the details of that night and said solemnly: "The skin was severely damaged by the random shooting. Although you can see many cracks in the gun holes now, they are far less than they were then."
No one would doubt a werewolf's vision.
After Lu Li finished speaking, Bai Yu, as a person involved, also expressed his opinion:
"Before that church member took action, the dense barrage could not get close to the giant. He seemed to have some kind of magnetic field that would cause the bullets to deviate from the trajectory, and at most they would just miss his arm."
Bernard listened silently. He didn't understand anything, let alone the specific situation. Staying here would be a great experience.
Pan Ming frowned slightly. When the assassination occurred, he was doing useless work in the municipal library and missed the good show.
Therefore, I cannot participate in the discussion.
"You mean..." Duke pondered for a moment and speculated: "The corpse in front of you still retains some functions and is not completely dead?"
There are many types of death, physical, philosophical, physiological...
At this moment, the giant is lying in the corpse cabinet, letting others manipulate him without resisting, but he still has some body functions, either actively or passively, in operation.
"Maybe it's some kind of mysterious material that has self-healing capabilities, but we haven't come into contact with it."
Gao Qian said it ambiguously. After all, he didn't understand it either and could only speculate on various possibilities.
"You really shouldn't be preconceived. What if special processes and materials are really used? Although this is an era of backward technology, there must be black technology similar to alchemy."
"It is recommended to cut the giant open completely to see the internal structure clearly."
…
As time went by, the discussion gradually became quieter. Everyone did not want to waste energy and let Duke continue to tinker.
Can a mechanical expert who can manufacture second-generation mechas not be able to study a thing composed of gears and gems?
Based on your own understanding, repair the broken parts and see if they can function normally.
In this regard, Duke is full of expectations and feels pressure.
"I hope I can draw parallels."
In a whisper, he lifted the heavy corpse cabinet and pushed it back.
There are ready-made dissection tools around him, and Duke can operate them on the spot, while repairing machinery requires machine tools and the like.
In addition, drawings must be drawn.
"Let's send someone to live here to avoid any accidents." Duke looked around and added: "I have to go to the machine shop to find suitable tools, so I don't have time for the moment."
Master Du was going to go shopping, and then stayed in the morgue to retreat.
Lu Li seemed to have other ideas and asked:
"How long do you think it will take?"
"At least seven days, but there is a high degree of confidence that this big man will be able to move."
Looking at the giant whose appearance was severely damaged but only a small amount of its internal core was missing, Duke looked determined. After adjustments, he was now full of confidence.
Study samples and analyze principles.
These are exactly the things he has done repeatedly in the past period of time. Moreover, he takes a large amount of drugs to enhance memory and mental strength, and has so much time. There is no reason why there should be no breakthrough research at all.
"Well, in that case, we will stay at the Scotland Yard headquarters." Lu Li said what he was thinking. As for whether there are beds and space, there is no need to worry.
Before the spiritual tide revived, there were people on duty at the police headquarters 24 hours a day, so there must be a place to stay and rest.
In fact, if he made a request to stay and work, Officer Wensley would be happy before it was too late and would never refuse.
"You mean, we help the police handle the case during this period?"
Pan Ming's eyes lit up. He had been playing soy sauce for a long time and really had to find a way to find something to do. Otherwise, the final score would be in danger.
"Well, let's split up."
Lu Li also wanted to find something to do for himself. He couldn't just watch Duke perform alone every time.
Not surprisingly, this decision was passed quickly. When the assassination case was in a stalemate, it was left to professionals to solve the problem. They would then join forces after a breakthrough was made to make full use of the time.
…
No. 4 Whitehall Street, top floor office.
"What?"
Mr. Vincent jumped up from the easy chair with a look of disbelief on his face.
"There are specialties in the art industry, and only one of our members can play a role for the time being. Instead of wasting time, it is better to assist the officials."
Lu Li joked casually, "I'm sure you won't be stingy with the bounty either."
Bounty?
If it was just for money, would Wensley be invited to eat at the most expensive restaurant in the Financial City?
Vincent naturally did not believe this argument, but he also firmly believed that the group of people in front of him would not have any bad intentions, especially the injured who were waiting to be sent to the hospital. After reporting the situation, Lu Li seemed to be enveloped by a layer of
Holy light.
At this time, the door was gently pushed open.
Wensley walked in with a pot of hot tea in one hand and materials in his arms.
"These are the cases that have just been reported from various police stations. From east to west, from south to north, murders are happening everywhere, and the police force is simply not enough."
After not seeing him for about two hours, the police officer became even more tired. His eye sockets were sunken and his eyes were dull. Many changes were visible to the naked eye.
Therefore, the old man took out a cigarette from the drawer and handed it over, asking him to refresh himself, hand over the work, go back and rest for a night before coming back.
There was no way around it. The resurgence of the spiritual tide had put too much pressure on Scotland Yard, and they couldn't leave anyone alone. Vincent, who was about to retire, decided to take over the task personally so that his disciple could rest for a night.
Wensley did not refuse the teacher's kindness. For some reason, he was too tired and all he wanted to do was go back and rest.
"Then I'll leave it to you all."
Seeing that the information had been distributed to everyone, Vincent put a cigarette in front of his nose, took a deep breath, and continued: "Please choose a suitable case. Don't worry about the remuneration. We will pay according to the highest standards."
"If an unimaginable case is solved, it will be reported to the royal family and parliament." The old man leaned on the easy chair and seemed to be drawing a pie. "Viscounts and earls may be difficult to obtain, but the queen has always awarded the title of lord and baron to meritorious officials.
Head habit."
Bai Yu and others became energetic.
Obtaining a knighthood in this era is undoubtedly a kind of recognition, and it is a bonus when making the final settlement.
At the same time, the old man also warned everyone, "Don't put the cart before the horse. Your main task is to find out the real culprit who assassinated Her Majesty the Queen."
"Don't worry, just treat it as a pre-dinner snack."
Lu Li smiled, lowered his head and started flipping through the information.
