Chapter 239 Star Moon Gate and Vanguard Ship(1/2)
Horford had the ability to enter and exit the Harsay Palace freely, so he did not go with Xu Nan.
According to yesterday's plan, he would go to the Dusk Hall alone and try to steal the "Brief Book". Anyway, there are people coming and going in today's Dusk Hall, and many alchemists will come to listen to the debate. Even if he really loses the Brief Book, he will probably not suspect that the artifact leader is an insider for a while.
Xu Nan walked aimlessly along the corridor on the side of Sanye Hall.
The Harsay Palace is too big.
After the seal was lifted, Stephen San did not have enough staff to inspect and monitor every corner, which gave the thiefs a lot of room for action.
After all, the owner of this palace is no longer there, and even Ansuli cannot control the overall situation through the magic circle fixed by the Harsay Palace itself; on the contrary, they will lose their home advantage because of the various magic designs unique to the Harsay Palace.
With the infiltration ability of the thief, it would be really hard to be distinguished if he hadn't bumped into Xu Nan.
Therefore, in order to prevent the situation, the law enforcement team prepared a large number of live rabbits.
They were preparing to drop these rabbits when necessary to catch the thiefs off guard.
Of course, the premise of all this is that Akai's intelligence is correct.
"I heard that the thief on Heiwo Island was caught by Senior Sister Jiang."
"What she mentioned before was actually catching the thief."
Regarding the parts of the law enforcement team's operations outside the city, Xu Nan only looked at the file part provided by Akai. Judging from the description, the process was quite thrilling, and someone was almost caught by the thief and turned into nutrients.
No wonder Jiang Yuanchi has been staying in Stephensang. Enemies of this level are really troublesome.
A turn appeared ahead.
Xu Nan couldn't help but slow down.
"Then, it's the dusk hall."
"It seems that there are many alchemists joining in the fun."
He looked at the other side of the passage and could vaguely see many people.
Compared to the two-day purification ceremony, for most wizards, the upcoming debate today is the highlight.
Everyone is looking forward to the identity of the anonymous person.
"It's really a turbulent time. Even the dead Helena can be resurrected... Hum?"
Just as he was thinking about it, Xu Nan suddenly saw a familiar face in Yu Guangli!
That's a fat woman!
She was wearing a very standard alchemist uniform and had just walked over from the dusk hall, with steady steps and a smile on her face, looking quite amiable.
It's Miranda!
Xu Nan's pupils shrank slightly.
When they were in the Lettuce Hotel, they did not catch the hotel owner who was suspected to be a senior thief. Although Akai sent elite members of the law enforcement team to search, Miranda showed her superb anti-search skills and no trace was found.
Xu Nan once thought she had left Stephen San.
Unexpectedly, it appeared here!
And it is still using the real appearance.
"Did she get in as an alchemist?"
"Where is this going?"
Xu Nan walked past her calmly without much hesitation, but just raised her chin slightly to a certain angle.
Miranda obviously saw him.
There was surprise and hesitation in her eyes.
After a few steps, Xu Nan heard the gentle and familiar voice sound behind him:
"Thomas?"
Xu Nan ignored her, but instead accelerated her pace and walked deep into the passage.
Xu Nan's reaction made Miranda even more hesitant, but he didn't give her too much time to think, and she was about to disappear into the shadow.
Miranda still stomped her feet and followed her, half a distance from Xu Nan.
Xu Nan sneered in his heart. He didn't say anything, but just lowered his head and walked away violently.
Miranda was very patient. She seemed to have misunderstood something and kept following Xu Nan.
Xu Nan was even less anxious. His every move was under the nose of the law enforcement team. I guess Akai and the others were discussing countermeasures at this time.
He just needs to set up a suspicion array and drag Miranda down.
Just wait until Akai and the others think of the strategy and do whatever they need to do and implement it.
But not long after, Xu Nan suddenly felt something missing behind him.
He suddenly looked back—
Miranda, disappeared!
"She found me!"
Xu Nan was not upset, but a little regretful.
"Where did she disappear?"
Not far away, two law enforcement team members who were following secretly also ran over.
They looked at a wall next to the passage with some confusion and began to grop gently.
“There should be a secret door here.”
"That woman just passed through the secret door."
"Finally found!"
A wizard chanted a spell with a low spell, and his hand pressed on a slightly raised particle, and suddenly, white light shone everywhere.
A laser-like secret door was revealed on the thick wall.
"The thief is more familiar to the Harsay Palace than you..."
Xu Nan couldn't help but complain.
"It seems that Miranda is much more alert than you expected."
It seems that Xu Nan's disguise did not seem to deceive this high-level thief, but instead exposed the scene where the law enforcement team is setting traps and waiting for the thiefs to take the bait-
Miranda chose to follow Xu Nan on the surface, but was actually ready to leave at any time.
This completely caught the law enforcement team off guard.
I guess no one would have guessed that the thief would know so much about Harsay Palace. Judging from Miranda's skillful skills, it should not be the first time she did this.
No wonder the young lady Xu Nan saw in the Dawn Hall before, disappeared so cleanly!
"Beware of the trap."
Xu Nan reminded him. The two law enforcement team members nodded. They quickly performed a [trap test] and made sure they were fine before they walked in quickly!
Xu Nan seemed to be ready to follow him, but at the last moment, he suddenly stopped.
He stood there and stopped for a long time until the secret door disappeared, and he did not move.
He seemed to suddenly enter daze mode.
"Um?"
It took a long time before a sneer came from the air: "You are more alert than those wizards."
Ten steps away.
The air was slightly distorted, and Miranda's slightly fat figure appeared leisurely.
"It's indeed fake." Xu Nan sighed softly: "You thiefs are really sinister."
Miranda smiled proudly:
"Strictly speaking, we all learned anthropology from you."
Xu Nan looked at her expression and was a little curious:
"Shouldn't the thief have no emotions?"
"Compared with the last meeting, you seem to be feeling a lot more..."
Xu Nan has been driving the Super Spirit Vision and is of course very familiar with Miranda's situation.
Although she is still at a particularly low level compared to normal people, for the thief, her mood is now rich.
Is it the human body that is subtly changing her?
Xu Nan was a little curious.
Hearing this, Miranda's expression became nervous as if she was being stepped on her tail.
She pretended not to care and said dryly:
To be continued...
