Chapter 169 Return Lumian had previously thought that the tenant was like Charlie, who had dreamed of Susanna Mathis, whose energy was slowly drained away and who died suddenly in the room. The hotel owner, Mr. Efe, was responsible for secretly transferring the body to a corner of underground Trier. Who knew that the other party had turned out to be a pervert with extraordinary abilities, still wandering around the Honest Man's Market area, targeting those good-looking girls. Since Hedesi had not shown any extraordinary characteristics for a long time after his death, Lumian was certain that his power came from a gift, and it was obviously the same source as Susanna Mathis and Mr. Efe. That is to say, not long after the portrait of Susanna Matisse was posted, Hedsey became a believer of the "Mother Tree of Desire" for some unknown reason, and received two or three blessings in just a few months. He suddenly possessed considerable strength and mastered a number of mystical methods. For extraordinary people who took potions to advance, this speed was difficult to imagine, unless they had mastered the role-playing method and were at a very low level. Of course, in Hedesi's case, the gift also showed its bad side. The recipient would be affected by the power and gradually become unlike himself. In some aspects, he would become more and more extreme and radical, and would often do things that seemed irrational to normal people and would bring disaster. Mr. Efe's stinginess and Hedesi's desire for women both fall into this category. Lumian suspected that almost all the powers bestowed by God carried similar problems to a greater or lesser extent. After all, they would make the recipients slowly move closer to the givers, resulting in corresponding alienation. The reason why he has not been affected by the power of the Dancer and the Mendicant is because it does not come directly from the hidden existence named Fate, but is caused by the pollution in his body, which has been filtered through the seal. Moreover, Lumian has always been vigilant about this aspect. Not only does he not change his style of doing things and the rules of life according to the characteristics of the Dancer and the Mendicant to improve his control over the power, but sometimes he even does the opposite. In addition, he would upgrade a sequence and have a preliminary digestion before obtaining the corresponding gift, in order to keep the power in his body balanced. "How did you find out?" Lumian lowered his head and asked Janna in a low voice.
Janna twisted her body to the beat, using the loud music to cover her up, and pouted her lips and said: "It's obvious that the pervert can't live without women. It's impossible for him to kidnap a woman every day and drag her underground. Otherwise, he would have been caught long ago. Fuck, there should be several of them. Didn't those incompetent black dogs notice? "So how does he usually solve his problems? It's obvious that I can't really satisfy him by myself, so I asked Franca to ask the Savoy dancers and streetwalkers, and soon I got the answer. "How can that pervert who deserves to be fucked in the ass by a donkey have so much energy to come so many times a day! "Why doesn't he go find those rich old ladies? Both sides can be satisfied!" Janna proudly recounted her investigation process to show off her smart brain. She was still upset about how Lumian had fooled her in the afternoon and made her look stupid. Indeed, before becoming a believer of the "Mother Tree of Desire" and receiving the gift, Hedsey was a frequent visitor to places like City Wall Street, Breda Street, and Nightingale Street. After receiving the "gift", his entire head was filled with women... Lumian discovered that Janna still had some brains occasionally. He then gave a piece of information: "That abnormal desire should come from the influence of his extraordinary power." "Supernatural power..." Janna looked up at Lumian. She thought the other party would play dumb, just like in underground Trier, where both parties tacitly did not mention the extraordinary abilities displayed by Hedsey. But she didn't expect that he would say it so frankly now. After a pause, Janna, who was dancing close to Lumian, whispered in confusion: "Why can supernatural powers turn him into such a pervert?" This was not quite the same as the supernatural power she knew - before it got out of control, it would have only a slight impact at most. Lumian smiled and said: "Abnormal supernatural power." "Don't I know it's abnormal?" Janna was once again irritated by the other party. Lumian chuckled: "As for why it's not normal, go back and ask Franka. If Franka doesn't know, ask her to ask the boss." The reason why he revealed this information to Janna was because he was worried that there would be follow-up issues regarding Mr. Eve, Susanna Mathis, Hudsey and others. If the official extraordinary people have not yet found out the truth, the only external forces he can rely on, apart from Mr. K's fingers, are the extraordinary people of the Savoy Party. Jenna snorted, stopped talking about this topic, and concentrated on dancing with Lumian. When this part of the music was about to end, she suddenly reached out and touched Lumian's chest.
"Haha, you have a nice figure!" Janna smiled and stepped back, turning to walk towards the half-height wooden platform in front of the dance floor. She looked as if she had finally gotten some revenge for what happened underground, and her whole demeanor became cheerful. Lumian sneered, left the dance floor, and picked up the glass of rye beer again. While listening to the song, he gently swayed his body and took the opportunity to observe the situation in various places in the Mill Ballroom. With a quick glance, he found that on the same side of him but closer to the stage, there was a group of people dressed in different styles and who looked like gangsters. They were surrounding a sturdy man who was nearly meters tall. The sturdy man looked a bit like the "Giant" Simon, with muscles that supported his black shirt and formal suit, but he was wearing wear-resistant dark blue canvas trousers and a pair of strapless black leather boots. The overall combination seemed a bit inconsistent. His brown hair was curled up in tangles, thick and messy, his brown eyes were slightly sideways, his facial features were ordinary, his contours were quite rigid, and his hands and legs were a little long compared to normal human proportions. "Hammer" Et...Lumian withdrew his gaze, thinking that this should be one of the targets. In Trier, there are not many people who are close to meters tall. At this distance, Lumian was not worried that "Hammer" Et and his men would recognize him. After all, the entire dance hall was dimly lit, relying solely on the surrounding gas wall lamps and a chandelier above for lighting, which made it easy for everyone to "communicate" while dancing. Unless they were particularly familiar with each other or had just met, they would not be able to recognize each other. Besides, Lumian had disguised himself to a certain extent, and he didn't expect that Janna would recognize him at a glance. After Janna finished singing another song, "Hammer" Et and his men left the dance floor and went upstairs. Lumian continued his observation, and suddenly, he saw a familiar figure coming in the door. That was Mr. Efe, the landlord of the "Golden Rooster Hotel", whose clothes had turned white from washing. His blue eyes looked around, his expression slightly anxious and worried. "Is he looking for Hedsi? That pervert went out in the afternoon and never came back. They suspected that he had an accident, so they went to various dance halls and places with street girls to look for clues?" Lumian withdrew his gaze thoughtfully and looked at the dancers on the dance floor. Based on the various characteristics displayed by Hedesi's spirit, he felt that Mr. Efe was much weaker than the other party. He should only have the gift power equivalent to Sequence 9, which was concentrated in greed and perhaps also included appetite. Hedsey was most likely to be Sequence 8, but had a small chance of being Sequence 7. Lumian was more inclined to the former because the few Sequence 7s he had encountered before were relatively comprehensive, and he didn't need to be prepared for them and set traps before he could solve them in one go. Of course, if Lumian had not observed patiently and discovered that Hedesi had the ability to arouse other people's sexual desire, and had not thought of a countermeasure in advance, he might have been the one who was quickly solved. In that environment at that time, if Janna hadn't been there, he could still rely on his own orientation to resist the influence and not completely forget the existence of the enemy. But with that "exaggerated woman", it was difficult for him to control himself and he had to rely on pain to wake himself up. Lumian saw out of the corner of his eye that Mr. Efe was talking to the dancers who were part-time streetwalkers one after another, and then they scolded him away with the same contemptuous look, and he felt amused: “Are you pretending to negotiate a price in order to inquire about Hedesi’s whereabouts? “I was too stingy and always cut the other party’s offer in half or more, so I was scolded? “Haha, Charlie was worried that Mr. Efe, an old widower, would not be willing to spend money on a regular prostitute and get sick. It seems that he was overthinking it. Mr. Efe is not willing to spend money on irregular street girls! “The negative impact of the gift of power is really too strong… "Well, if there are women in that group, and they are at the same level as Hedsey and have the same gift ability, they should also be in a state of constant hunger. Mr. Efe doesn't need to find other street girls. Haha, he will only hate himself for being a man. He is almost unable to bear it, but he is forced to arouse his desire. “Those women’s best disguises are dancers and streetwalkers? "That's not right. If there really is such a woman, Hedesi wouldn't have to come out and harm others... Could it be that all those who were originally at this level have been promoted or died, and the new ones haven't been replaced yet? Or, the number of men and women is not equal, and Hedesi is the one who is excluded?" While Lumian was thinking, the band played another exciting dance music. After singing the song, Janna jumped down from the half-high wooden platform again, came to Lumian and invited him to dance. This caused boos from the surroundings.
Lumian knew that Janna probably had something else to say, so he deliberately turned half a circle to provoke those who were booing. He immediately entered the dance floor, approached Janna, and started to dance with her. Janna looked up at him and asked with a smile: "What do you want to do in the Mill Ballroom, you Savoyard man?" Lumian chuckled and said: "Don't you think I like you? Of course I came here to listen to you sing." Janna made a disdainful sound: "Your target is Hammer Att, right? "You want to replicate what happened to Maggot?" “Quite clever,” Lumian praised in a provocative tone. Janna smiled proudly: "I can help you and provide you with important information." Lumian calmed down and asked thoughtfully: "what do you want?" Janna snorted and cursed: "Do you fucking look down on me? "Although I didn't say thank you this afternoon, I won't forget that you saved me. It just so happens that I know all the dance halls in the market area, and I just met with At and talked about the future performances. I should be able to help you." Without waiting for Lumian's response, she gritted her teeth and continued: "'Iron Hammer' was in the innermost room on the second floor, towards the 'Golden Rooster Hotel'. He had ten thugs around him, four at the door, half inside and half outside, two by the window, two by the sofa, and two following him all the time. They all had guns. “It wasn’t so tight before, and there weren’t so many people. It was you who killed Maggot. "That room had an attached bathroom, and there was no one inside. If the window was fully opened, a person could barely squeeze through. "You can climb up to the second floor through the ventilation duct in the ballroom kitchen and avoid the people guarding the stairs. Then you go into the next room and jump from the windowsill to a ledge outside the bathroom. It's very narrow and you need to be very skilled to succeed." (End of this chapter)
