Chapter 562 The Reason Why I Have to Help
However, just as Ying, Paimon and Clorinde were rushing towards Melo Petersburg, Chang Ming and Funina had already arrived at their destination and successfully met up with Leosli.
"What's the situation now?"
Chang Ming asked as he walked quickly.
"Katpila searched the heavy punishment area but couldn't find Lenore. His attitude towards us... became a little suspicious, but he didn't completely distrust us."
Leosli sighed helplessly, as if there was nothing he could do about Caterpillar's change of attitude.
Indeed, if he was Caterpillar, and something like this happened after a brief conversation...it would be hard not to think the worst.
"Of course, Caterpillar also said that he believed you had nothing to do with this matter because he could see that you really cared about Lenore, and it was not just a fake concern to achieve your goals."
"It's good that you don't completely distrust us..."
Chang Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what Leosli added.
Trust is something... once it's gone, it's hard to get it back.
He didn't want his plan to rescue Rene from the primordial fetal sea to be delayed by this unexpected situation.
But if he is really forced to postpone it... then he might have to do something to the Noklan family.
They were only put in the heavy punishment area because of the Mora they handed over in the end. If they really wanted to be seriously investigated... these people would not even be qualified to go to trial.
What's more, such incidents as kidnapping are not allowed to happen in Melo Petersburg. This is one of the bottom lines of Melo Petersburg rules.
When they first touched the bottom line, the huge number of Mora saved their lives, allowing them to linger in the heavy punishment area of Melo Petersburg.
Although you have to live under the dark water for your whole life, at least you are still alive. When you are about to die, you can return to the surface of the water to see the sun and then die.
This time, they touched the bottom line without knowing what was good for them, and the natural result was that they lost the lives they had redeemed with great difficulty.
Judging from Chang Ming's style of doing things...he would not do anything that goes against the law, and it would be impossible for him to even resort to lynching to achieve his goal.
But apparently - this doesn't count.
They broke the rules, so Chang Ming, as the rule maker, naturally had to punish them. From this point of view...it did not touch Chang Ming's bottom line.
As for the extent of the punishment...it depends entirely on his mood. Anyway, the upper limit is death, and the lower limit is a life worse than death. This range is quite flexible.
Thinking of this, Chang Ming looked at Leosli beside him and said seriously:
"Leosli, have your people go to the Northland Bank to find Alechino. Also... bring those bastards from the Noklan family to the interrogation room. I want to ask them in person what exactly is going on."
Hearing Chang Ming's words, Leosli was stunned at first, as if he was a little confused, but as a partner with Chang Ming for many years, he had developed the habit of trusting Chang Ming, and immediately arranged for people to do what Chang Ming said.
——Chang Ming must have his reasons for doing this, don’t ask, just do it.
After arranging the people, Leosli looked at Funina beside Chang Ming and asked softly:
"Ms. Furninha..."
"Well, she's joining me for this interrogation."
"Okay, I understand. I will go and arrange the interrogation room now. Will the Fatui executor who will arrive later also be brought to the interrogation room?"
"Yes."
"I see. I'll go take care of these things first. We'll see you in interrogation room number three later."
"Ah."
After saying that, Leosli quickly disappeared in front of the two of them, as if he was deliberately creating a space for the two of them to be alone together.
"...What a deliberate act..."
Funina complained.
"I feel so too."
Chang Ming nodded in agreement, and a scene of the wife singing and the husband following suit was staged on the spot.
After a brief silence, Funina turned to look at Chang Ming standing beside her and said in confusion:
"So... why did you call that woman here? Could this matter be related to the Fatui?"
As if he had caught a certain keyword, Chang Ming subconsciously looked around, as if trying to catch a green figure.
After discovering that the real "that woman" did not suddenly appear beside them, Chang Ming breathed a sigh of relief and then said:
"This matter actually has nothing to do with the Fatui, but I think it has something to do with Arlecino."
"?"
Fu Nina frowned slightly as she looked at Chang Ming who was speaking riddles again. Just as she was about to show off her "prestige" as a wife, Chang Ming spoke first:
"The concepts of the regent interrogating and the Fatui Executor interrogating are completely different."
"I interrogate them, and that's a public matter, but no matter how I deal with these people in the end...it could be defined as retaliation in the end, after all, it was me who sent them to jail before."
"But if the Fatui executive came to interrogate, the final result would be completely different - they would say that it was deserved, or they would blame the Fatui."
"In this way... I am like the traditional Liyue snack Sanbuzhan. The pot cannot touch me, and even if there is a reckoning, it will not be my fault."
A slight smile appeared on Chang Ming's face, like a cunning old fox.
And Funina looked at her husband in front of her, feeling helpless for a moment.
But then again, this kind of personality and approach is indeed quite consistent with the style of a regent.
"Yeah~ I know~"
Finina nodded her head obediently, as if she understood her husband's thoughts. Then, as if she suddenly thought of something, she asked:
"But... why is it Alechino and not your fellow lady Columbia? In terms of the closeness of the relationship... wouldn't it be easier for her to agree to you?"
"Or... do you have any reason why she will definitely help you?"
"Of course it's because she needs something from me~"
Chang Ming winked at Funina playfully, then deliberately kept the secret and walked quickly towards interrogation room No. 3.
"Hey! Why are you playing the riddle man on key information? Hey!"
Funina looked at the back with dissatisfaction, but at the same time she felt helpless.
There's no way. Our regent is like this. He always keeps things in suspense at critical moments.
