Chapter 421 Mr. Ryoma, You Don't Want Mei Either

After the meeting with the defense lawyer, Raiden Ryoma was carried by two guards one behind the other towards the cell...no, the prison cell to be precise.

The reason why there are two guards in tandem is actually not difficult to understand. This is the highest-level detention center in the entire Changkong City. The prisoners detained are either extremely vicious or have noble status, so naturally there is no room for error... and in order to prevent the occurrence of The problem is, all the passages for people walking here are only wide enough for one and a half people. Although this is indeed "safe" enough, if there is an emergency and you need to escape, I'm afraid there will be a big mess, right?

Thunder and Lightning Ryoma shook his head, "What a big mess... what a big mess..."

In the eyes of others, what big trouble could there be? Considering the geography of the Far East, do earthquakes count? But it doesn't matter. The internal buildings of the retention yard are all made of the latest special alloy steel, which is enough to withstand earthquakes up to magnitude seven. What big trouble could there possibly be?

"hehe……"

Lightning Ryoma sneered twice.

Walking all the way back to the prison cell, Thunderbolt Ryoma behaved extremely well. Two guards locked his prison door and asked softly:

"The conditions here are limited, Mr. Ryoma, please give me your instructions if I need anything."

"Um?"

Raiden Ryoma raised his head unexpectedly. It had been almost a month and a half since he came here. Although the few guards he had come into contact with were conscientious and did not treat him harshly, nor were they likely to overly please him, the common point is that they never Talk to him. He even once doubted whether these guards were all deaf-mute...

But after all, he is a self-made character, and the twists and turns here can be guessed almost at once - compared to the jailers who add insult to injury in the story, these guards can be said to be human beings.

For a suspect like Raiden Ryoma, there is no need to offend or please him. No one can say whether he can survive this disaster safely. Instead of doing this, it is better to keep things official and avoid communication and contact. When the defense lawyer comes to visit, it basically means that the court is about to decide the fate. At this time, be a little more polite. In case the other party's affairs are reversed, you can also settle the matter. Not a big or small good deed, right?

Of course, what Raiden Ryoma didn't know was that the two guards in front of him were also muttering to themselves - to be honest, they had been working here for almost ten years and had seen many suspects like Raiden Ryoma who had been in high positions. . But even among these people, Thunder Dragon Horse is an extremely special existence.

To be precise, he was the only one who could be so leisurely and indifferent when the court session was approaching, as if this matter had nothing to do with him. Of course, this is a nice way of saying it, but a bad way of saying it is... XX!

But it wasn't just Raiden Ryoma's reaction that was strange. In fact, what was even more strange about the two guards was...how did he make his defense lawyer leave in tears?

It’s not like there’s a secret behind the case that moved the defense lawyer to tears, right?

Thunder Dragon Horse did not have the power of consciousness, so it was naturally impossible for him to understand the thoughts of the two guards. He thought for a while and said:

"I have a bad appetite today, so I won't have dinner, is that okay?"

"Okay, okay, of course, no problem."

This was not an excessive request, and it was not even a simple effort, so the two guards naturally agreed immediately.

"Then, Mr. Ryoma, if nothing happens, we will go back to the duty station... I wish you good luck."

The two guards bowed slightly to him, and Raiden Ryoma bowed politely in return, watching the two of them leave his sight.

"By now, Meiyi should have told him what I said, right?"

Thunderbolt Ryoma sneered twice again, turned to look at the surveillance camera in the corner, and pretended to walk normally as he approached the door. He glanced at the direction in which the two guards left with his peripheral vision to confirm that the two guards had really left.

"It looks like you're doing well here."

A slightly joking voice sounded behind him, and Raiden Ryoma was not surprised.

The first time he turned around, he didn't look at the figure that suddenly appeared. Instead, he raised his head and looked at the camera. The red indicator light symbolizing the operation of the camera was still on, which surprised him.

"Don't worry, don't you understand what I'm capable of?"

Mikael spread his hands exaggeratedly.

"It's precisely because I understand that I don't feel reassured."

Raiden Ryoma pushed up his glasses and sat back upright on his bed.

Mikael shrugged. The environment of the prison cell was indeed good. There was a bed and a table. Raiden Ryoma chose the bed to sit down, so he naturally sat on the table, with his back against the wall and his feet on the back of the chair. superior.

"Your posture...hehe, why are you becoming more and more arrogant?"

"snort."

Mikael snorted softly, how should he answer this?

"Let me tell you what you have to say, Raiden Ryoma. What do you want from me?"

"It's actually not a big deal."

Thunder Ryoma went to dig into his pocket out of habit, but he was stunned in the middle of the action. This is a detention area after all. He is a criminal suspect, so cigarettes and lighters cannot be brought in.

"Tsk! It's been more than a month, and you can't even quit this little hobby. Thunder and Lightning Ryoma, Thunder and Lightning Ryoma, why are you so depraved?"

Mikael mocked a few words, but did not forget to take out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from his pocket and threw them to Thunder Ryoma.

Without thinking, Thunderbolt Ryoma lit the cigarette first, put it in his mouth and took a deep puff, and then his whole body became comfortable.

Then he realized something belatedly and looked up at the fire alarm that did not respond.

"Don't worry, at least you can trust me when it comes to my ability, right?"

Hearing this, Thunder Dragon Horse narrowed his eyes unconsciously. After ten seconds, he slowly nodded and exhaled a breath of white air.

Mikael also smiled and sarcastically said:

"But the smell of cigarettes and cigarette butts left behind, please explain to the guards yourself when you check at night."

"*!"

Thunder Dragon Horse is not such a boring person. In the past, he might have the mind to tease himself a few words, but now he just cursed a dirty word, but then he didn't say anything and smoked quietly.

One cigarette is not enough. After all, he has been holding it in for more than a month. He must finish half a pack of cigarettes in one breath, and smoke every cigarette until the butts are so hot that his fingers can't hold it.

Mikael didn't urge him, but just closed his eyes, breathing deeply and long, as if he was asleep.

Ten minutes later, Lei Dian Long Ma threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, stomped it out with his foot, held a lighter in his other hand, and propped up his dizzy head. He was about to speak when he suddenly coughed twice. Two puffs of gray smoke sprayed directly from his mouth. Those who didn't know would think he had poured a mouthful of flour into his mouth.

"Tsk tsk tsk... Is it that serious?"

"What's so serious or not... cough cough cough!"

Lei Dian Long Ma covered his mouth and suppressed his cough, fearing that he would attract the guards.

Looking at his embarrassed appearance, Mikael did not laugh at him anymore. A bottle of mineral water appeared in his hand out of thin air. He was about to hand it forward, but was slapped away by Lei Dian Long Ma.

"Why?"

He covered his face with his calloused hands, with visible regret, and his voice was quiet and cold, but this was just an appearance. At a distance of nearly two arms, Mikael could still feel his anger...

And his seemingly curled up body was just an illusion. Mikael would not forget that this man was Mei's kendo teacher. Well, this identity was not very convincing. How about he was a fierce man who could tear up the Honkai beast with a knife?

Well, it was still not good enough in front of Mikael. So Mikael naturally didn't need to be nervous, but smiled softly and asked knowingly:

"Why? Why?"

Raiden Ryoma took a deep breath and uttered a series of sneers from his hoarse throat.

He didn't answer Mikael's question, and it was not known whether he simply didn't want to answer or didn't want to fall into Mikael's rhythm.

Just like the decadence and despair he showed now, Mikael could see it clearly with the power of knowledge. Of course, Thunder Dragon Horse felt desperate, but for a character like him, is it difficult to suppress and conceal his despair? He was just pretending.

"From the first day that Cocolia left Siberia and came to the Far East, I knew that I would fall into her hands sooner or later. That woman always does things by any means, and she will never give up until she achieves her goal. My best choice at the time was to kill her directly. Unfortunately, I was too proud, especially after she moved into an orphanage with several girls..."

Thunder Dragon Horse didn't want to follow Mikael's rhythm, he stated it on his own, but the first sentence almost made Mikael laugh out loud - what does "from the first day that Cocolia came to the Far East" mean? If Mikael remembered correctly, on the night one and a half months ago, the first night when Mikael became Mei's driver, Raiden Ryoma had an expression of "I know nothing". It was only after Mikael's thorough analysis that he finally confirmed that Cocolia was the enemy...

Now he stopped pretending and showed his cards. In fact, he knew everything.

When did Cocolia come to the Far East? Her deployment began at the latest a year ago. Perhaps Ryoma knew everything since then. Didn't he deliberately pretend to be "entrusted" to let Mikael join the game?

Mikael really didn't know about it beforehand. He didn't use the power of consciousness to spy on everyone's thoughts anytime and anywhere. It's not because of any moral burden, it's just annoying. Being able to see other people's hearts is not a good thing. Not everyone, no, there is no one in this world who can be bright inside. Dark, depressed, violent... Since everyone puts a smile on their faces as a mask, it's not surprising that everyone keeps these dark emotions in their hearts... Use the power of consciousness to see these? Isn't that asking for trouble?

However, although he didn't know it before, Mikael was not surprised.

This is how the world is. Everyone is just acting. Sometimes it's to achieve their own goals, and sometimes... In fact, they are just used to acting, and they can't stand others not acting.

That's about it.

Of course, these are irrelevant. Mikael is just complaining in his heart, and in reality, Raiden Ryoma's statement continues.

"To be honest, before Cocolia appeared, you were the one I was always afraid of and always on guard against. It's just that in the past year or so, I don't know what happened. All my attention was attracted by Cocolia, and in the end I was so stupid that I entrusted Mei to you..."

"Puff... Don't look at me like that, Ryoma, did I do something wrong?"

"You——"

Raiden Ryoma panted rapidly. After a few minutes, the situation did not ease. Instead, he covered his chest with his hands, and his expression became visibly painful.

"Did you get a heart attack from anger?"

Mikael smiled. He did nothing but stared at the Thunder Horse motionlessly until half an hour later, the Thunder Horse's breathing gradually stabilized.

"You know very well, Mikael - all the so-called evidence of my economic fraud were all produced by you, right?"

Mikael shrugged his shoulders and did not deny it. He felt that he was still very honest. Since he was discovered, why would he deny it?

"So, how did you guess it? I'm afraid even Cocolia just made a guess about this and is not sure. Hmm... If you put it this way, is what I did really so obvious?"

Seeing that Mikael not only did not feel ashamed, but even looked contented with himself, the thunder and lightning dragon horse's anger surged up again.

But it was only for a moment. He knew... He knew that he had no right to be angry. At least now is not the time to be angry.

"Hehe, yes."

He gave a wry smile.

"Perhaps you are too powerful, so you don't care about these details at all. The ME company did sign the document for development and financing of overfrequency electromagnetic field constraints. But there are no problems with the whole process, including the flow of funds and the progress of the project. If it is really Cocolia, if she really chooses this as a breakthrough point, she actually has nothing to do and can exploit it seamlessly.”

"so?"

"Change the original contract, change the flow of funds, and even the entire project team and experimental results are gone. I don't think this is humanly possible. Of course, I don't know how you did it, but if If there is someone in this world who can do it, it can only be you.”

"After working on it for a long time, you are just guessing."

Mikael caressed the smooth tabletop with his fingers aimlessly, and the corners of his mouth curled up inexplicably.

“But if all the speculations can be linked together to form a logical closed loop, and there is no more powerful explanation besides this, then I think this can basically be considered a fact.

"I also said, Mikael, I have always regarded you as a potential enemy from a long time ago. Don't you find it strange? You appeared without warning eight years ago. I used all kinds of methods to The resources can’t find your resume. And the reward you asked for curing Mei Yi was just my signature?

"I'm not a big star. I'm a businessman on the surface. Do you think I really don't know the importance of a signature? What I didn't expect was that when I gave you a flower signature, you actually Being able to imitate my official signature handwriting... Haha, I have been wary of you for so many years, but I was afraid of being too obvious and alerting others... I don't know what happened in the past year, but I was so negligent..."

"Hahaha, it seems that you still need me to clarify your doubts - first, I will not be stupid enough to think that you will leave an official signature. At that time, my focus will be on you from beginning to end. As long as you learn Is it difficult to deduce your signature from your way of writing, combined with some of your daily writing?”

Mikael spread his hands and continued:

"But you are right, because I am too omnipotent, so sometimes I don't pay much attention to strategies. For example, as you just said, why have you neglected my precautions in the past year and a half? Because That’s all I want.”

"What...what do you mean?"

"well……"

Mikael sighed helplessly. It was troublesome to talk to people who were not intelligent enough.

"Let's change the example - an economic fraud case. Do you want to know how I did it?"

Without waiting for Raiden Ryoma to answer, he continued directly:

"It's actually very simple, Raiden Ryoma, don't think about turning over, because all the evidence in the economic fraud case was not modified or forged by me."

He stretched out his index finger and tapped his temple:

"It's very simple, really very simple, because I just modified the memories of all of you. The legal procedures and legal fund flows that you think of, including scientific researchers and scientific research results, only exist in your memories. That's what I say. , do you understand?"

Raiden Ryoma was shocked, but he didn't seem that shocked. To be honest, it was not that he had never imagined this possibility, but...

But Mikael didn't seem to want to stop talking.

"Oh, by the way, did Mei tell you? I am her guardian now."

"Hmm...huh? You-"

"Yes, there is no need to forge any documents in the economic fraud case, and naturally there is no need to forge your signature. So, where is the signature I imitated from you used?"

"asshole!"

The Thunderbolt Ryoma suddenly exploded, punched Mikael in the abdomen, grabbed Mikael's neck with his left hand, and smashed his head against the wall again and again.

Mikael just let him vent for more than ten minutes. When he finally calmed down and stopped, Mikael also left the last words that made Raiden Ryoma almost collapse:

"Mr. Raiden Ryoma, you don't want Mei to lose her second father, right?"
