Chapter 1050: The Target of Change
"Modin is a lady!"
Under Kieran's gaze, Emma Eddie said.
Miss? !
Qin Ran was stunned.
It's not that he has any prejudice against women, it's just that when he mentions the sculptor, he already subconsciously regards 'Modin' as a man.
Of course, maybe because of his lack of knowledge, he was unable to know and remember those famous female sculptors.
But Kieran would not deny that Emma Eddie gave him a special message.
"Can you guarantee that this is not a lie?"
Qin Ran was making the final confirmation.
"certainly."
"I swear by my name and surname, what I said is true—Although Emma Eddy is lying, she will not use her name and surname as a price."
Emma Eddie said in a rather proud tone.
"Um."
"Then, according to your previous deal with Fries, you obtained a not-too-excessive commitment from him."
"what do you need?"
Qin Ran nodded first, and then asked for his servant.
"I need protection for a while, if possible."
"Although I don't want to admit it, I have become the 'hot potato' in the eyes of a group of guys for no reason."
Emma Eddie would not be stupid enough to tell the cause and effect of the matter, she would just speak vaguely.
In this regard, Qin Ran discovered some clues, but did not pursue them.
Not completely reassuring each other.
Rather, Qin Ran wished that the other party had problems.
Because, only in this way can he know more clearly what the murderer behind the scenes wants to do.
From the series of clues he got yesterday, he roughly knew that the murderer behind the scenes wanted to use "Hell's Sigh" to obtain more statues of Mordin.
But there was one point that Qin Ran couldn't understand.
What role did he, or to be more precise, the dead 'him' play in the other party's plan?
No matter how Qin Ran thought about it, he found that 'his' death was completely unnecessary and redundant in this incident.
Therefore, Kieran had to reconsider the reason why Emma Eddie appeared there.
"Not to find 'my' body?"
"What could it be?"
Kieran looked at Emma Eddie, who had chosen a guest room under Frith's arrangement, and fell into deep thought.
Until the doorbell interrupted Qin Ran.
Ding dong!
"Open the door!"
The doorbell rang, followed by the police sergeant's furious shout.
"Fries, open the door."
Qin Ran, who was interrupted from thinking, had no intention of getting up and ordered the 'Freezer'.
"Okay, my lord."
After Fries signaled Emma Eddie to be silent, he strode towards the door.
The door with three layers of security was opened twice, leaving only a chain lock, and the door was opened a crack from the inside.
Fries looked through the gap at Pudke who was standing in front of the door and the policemen behind him.
"Where's 2567?"
Pudek asked very bluntly.
"Please be respectful to adults."
"This is the first and last time I warn you."
"Of course, the same goes for you."
Fries said coldly.
The cold tone did not scare Podke, but the policemen behind Podke shrank their necks.
The kind of murderous intent that has been honed over many years is not something that a group of ordinary police officers can resist.
"Open the door!"
"This is also the first and last time I warn you: if you don't open the door again, I will use my method to make you open the door automatically."
Pudke said grumpily.
"You can try."
Fries opened his mouth and showed a smile full of murderous intent.
Such murderous intent made the policemen behind Podke tremble, and Podke also reached out to touch the handle of the gun at his waist.
"2567, is this the cooperation you told me?"
"Or are you afraid of seeing me?"
"Are you feeling guilty?"
Pudke raised his voice.
The sound reached Qin Ran's ears clearly.
Qin Ran couldn't help but frown.
In fact, Pudke was right about one thing.
Qin Ran didn't want to see the other party at this time.
Of course it's not because of guilt, nor is it because of fear.
But at this moment, if he enters the other party's sight, it will affect his plan.
With the appearance of [Modin's Third Statue], some things have already changed unconsciously.
According to his previous reading, Modin should have carved eight statues in his lifetime. Except for the last one, which was clearly recorded as 'Sigh of Hell', the remaining seven statues have only vague records, but they are absolutely certain to exist. ——In the relevant books, every author is so sure, but every author cannot tell clearly what the other seven statues are.
If [Mordin's third statue] had not appeared, Qin Ran would have only thought that this was a legend spread through false rumors, or a clumsy joke.
But with the appearance of [Modin’s third statue], everything becomes different.
Maybe it's not that the authors didn't want to record the remaining seven statues, but that they couldn't!
As for why?
It could be a curse!
It could also be...
Man-made!
The statue of 'Modin', which possesses some kind of mysterious power, will definitely attract greedy people like crucian carp crossing the river as soon as it is discovered.
And these people selfishly 'closed' everything related to the 'Modin' statue.
Do not underestimate the selfishness caused by greed.
That's terrible.
It will have the power of destruction.
Not only destroying others, but also destroying oneself.
Just like the previous holder of [Mordin’s third statue].
It’s as if someone is now using the news of ‘Hell’s Sigh’ to lure those who hold the statue of ‘Modin’ to appear.
And Qin Ran was also attracted.
Kieran would not deny this point.
When he saw the attributes of [Modin's third statue] and learned that there were seven similar statues, Kieran's interest was completely aroused.
He really wanted to know what the remaining statues would do.
To this end, he believed that he needed to cooperate a little with the murderer behind the scenes so that the other party could more smoothly lure out other statue holders.
That's why Kieran asked Frith to collect information about 'Modin' in such a big way.
But what Kieran didn't expect was that Pudke would come to his door.
Obviously, the other party's information was far better than he imagined.
"Fries, let Sheriff Puddeck come in."
Qin Ran ordered.
"Okay, my lord."
Fries opened the chain lock, opened the door, bowed and said: "Please."
It is an incomparable standard.
It's like a qualified housekeeper.
None of the people who could enter the room saw this.
Podk was furious and was not in the mood to observe this.
The rest of the police were terrified.
Without the slightest procrastination, Pudek quickly walked up to Qin Ran and showed him a document.
"2567, according to reliable clues, I suspect that you are related to a murder case!"
"Now!"
"Please come with me!"
