Great Single Player of the Heavens

Chapter 376: A Small Promise That Cannot Be Fulfilled 【End of Ancient Tomb】

When the police arrived late, there were not many living people in the castle.

According to the chemical traces and smoke containers left at the crime scene, the police confirmed that a large amount of hypnotic gas with extremely high concentrations had appeared in the conference room.

The weapon used by the murderer is a Glock commonly used on the black market, which cannot be traced at all.

According to the only testimony of the witnesses, the murderer was a man wearing a motorcycle helmet and could not see his appearance at all.

Such vague and weak evidence is of no help to solve the case at all.

After two weeks of intensive investigation, the local police were like chasing a phantom in fantasy, without a clue.

On the other hand, the destruction of the Supreme Council led to a fierce power struggle within the Holy Trinity.

Every middle level wants to climb up and hold this ancient and huge sect in their hands.

However, no matter whether they were busy fighting for power or they were afraid that the mysterious killer would come to their door, either side of the forces tacitly did not try to find out who killed the Twelve Apostles.

Under the dual pressure of the Holy Trinity and the top government officials, this case, just like this, was left alone.

And someone who personally planned this "beheading operation" is also on his way back to London...

. . .

2013, December.

London, Surrey, Crawford House.

The rich aroma of fried steak fills the entire open kitchen, whetting your appetite.

The milky white thick soup, in the iron pot on the stove, "gurgles and gurgles", which adds a bit of smoke and fire.

And the owner of the manor, holding a long spoon in his hand, stood in front of the iron pot, constantly stirring the thick soup.

After stirring, she still didn't forget to pick up a small spoonful and try the taste.

"Well, it seems to be a little lighter..."

Just as Laura was concentrating on cooking, a slightly mocking voice suddenly came from behind her:

"Do you need help?"

Hearing this, Laura waved her hand without looking back, and immediately responded: "No, it will be fine soon."

Watching Laura's busy figure in the kitchen, Lu Qi, who was sitting at the dining table, rested his cheeks, and couldn't help but smile slightly at the corners of his mouth.

However, in his eyes, there is only a deep sense of reluctance...

Soon, Laura brought the fried steak and creamy soup cooked by herself to the table.

Before she had time to take off her white floral apron, Laura stared closely at Lu Qi, who was opposite, watched him put a spoonful of steaming thick soup into his mouth, and then asked:

"what about the taste?"

Noticing the nervousness on Laura's face, Lu Qi rolled his eyes, intending to tease this lovely girl.

"Um..."

He frowned and pondered for a while pretending to be distressed, but didn't respond immediately.

Seeing this, Laura thought that the food she cooked was not tasty, her eyes darkened immediately, and she asked with a little disappointment:

"Is it not delicious? Or is it salty?"

Looking at Laura's little expression of "the baby is not happy\

,"Only then did Lu Qi show a smile and said:

"Hahaha, I tricked you!"

"I'm just kidding, your cooking is delicious, the taste is just right!"

Seeing Lu Qi's smiling face, Laura, who just realized it, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Immediately afterwards, she stretched out her hand without hesitation, slapped Lu Qi's arm, and said coquettishly:

"You nasty fellow!"

Seeing Laura raising her eyebrows and looking angry, Lu Qi was even happier, and couldn't help laughing:

"Haha... Whoops! Why are you pinching me..."

"Let you tease me... let you joke..."

"Ah! It won't work there!"

Suddenly, there was a burst of cheerful noise in the entire restaurant...

. . .

When Lu Qi tracked and investigated the high-level of the Holy Trinity, Laura was not idle. She completed her thesis and submitted the archaeological research materials of the Lost City to the International Association of Archaeologists.

For the materials that Laura submitted again, the International Archaeological Association was shocked, and immediately called experts to review the materials, and quickly organized a new research team, and immediately went to Siberia to confirm.

Before the ancient ruins of Yamatai were completely excavated, Laura and Lu Qi, two rising stars in the archaeological world, discovered another ancient ruins enough to be famous in history!

This news instantly became a hot topic among the public.

Taking advantage of the good public opinion, Laura also submitted an application to the government for Sophia and others to relocate their family as planned.

Just as Lu Qi and Laura expected in advance, the huge influence brought by the lost city has made the government attach great importance to it, and it also regards the survivors of the prophets who have guarded the lost city for nearly a thousand years as a good way to improve the image of the country. Chance.

Without any obstacles, the application was approved, and Sophia and others became subjects of the Queen of England as a matter of course...

Opening up the lost city to the world and helping the survivors of the prophet, in order to celebrate this double happy event, Laura and Lu Qi made an appointment to have dinner together.

After some squabbling, the two returned to seriousness again, chatting while enjoying the tender and juicy fried steak.

"How about Sophia and the others, have they settled down?"

"I asked people to do it. First help them find a job that suits them, then learn the language and adapt to the environment..."

"Take your time, there is plenty of time anyway. Starting a new life is not something that can be done overnight..."

Hearing this, Laura nodded in approval, "That's true..."

"By the way, Samantha called me recently, saying that she was lonely in Neon and wanted me to come over and be with her. Do you want to come with me?"

Facing Laura's invitation, Lu Qi paused for a while, and then responded as calmly as possible:

"Oh, unfortunately, I may have to go on a long trip recently..."

Hearing this, Laura did not doubt that he was there, forked a piece of steak meat, put it into her mouth, and said vaguely while chewing:

"Oh, that's okay, anyway, I plan to stay in Neon for a while... It won't be too late to come and join us after you finish your business..."

Listening to Laura's words, Lu Qi couldn't help lowering his head slightly, trying not to let Laura on the opposite side see the sadness in his eyes.

He knew very well that his time was running out.

It was announced to the public in the Lost City that his [World Mission] had been completed, and the system also sent out a reminder, leaving him time to bid farewell, only the last 24 hours left.

Every time I leave the world, it is the most painful moment. However, this is not the first time for Lu Qi, he has already made preparations.

Instead of letting both of them experience the pain of parting, it is better to let yourself bear all this...

Just as Lu Qi, Laura's voice sounded from the ear again:

"Hey, Lu Qi, are you listening?"

"Well, I'll try my best..."

"Well, I'll wait for you at Neon..."

Hearing this sentence, Lu Qi's throat choked up, and he almost couldn't hold back the tears in his eyes.

At this moment, only he knows that this little agreement between him and Laura can no longer be fulfilled...
