Chapter 1164

Unaware that Li Ang was "eyeing" her backside, and unaware that her bottom line had been seen through, after a few exchanges of questions and answers with the robber sister, the female reporter actually started chatting with her.

"I remember, when your brother first entered the VIP cabin, he fired a shot at the shutter above, right?"

Recalling the situation from before, the female reporter asked curiously:

"It was that shot that shocked all the passengers, but after Li Ang checked it later, didn't he say that the guns you two had were both fake? Then how exactly did the shutter shatter?"

"Because I prepared a ball of modeling clay mixed with glycerin in advance."

Although she really wanted to talk about serious matters first, looking at the female reporter's face full of thirst for knowledge, the robber sister had no choice but to explain helplessly:

"That stuff explodes when it vibrates; it's often used by people for mining. I stole a little bit from the mine, mixed it into the modeling clay, and then when I was putting away the luggage, I secretly stuck that lump of clay on it.

And although the gun in my brother's hand was a toy, it could still fire marbles. As long as he aimed and fired a shot at that clay, the shutter, which had a thin layer of glass on one side, would be shattered directly, looking just as if it had been broken by a gunshot."

So that's how it was...

After the doubt in her heart was resolved, a look of satisfaction appeared on the female reporter's face. Then, perhaps suffering from a journalist's occupational disease, she couldn't help but ask curiously:

"By the way, how did you come up with this method? Did someone teach you?"

"No one taught me, I learned it myself..."

Although she was extremely anxious and wanted to negotiate quickly, Li Ang's act of exposing her bottom line in just two sentences had truly brought significant psychological pressure to the robber sister.

Not daring to negotiate with Li Ang, and facing the female reporter as her only straw to clutch at, the robber sister had to suppress the urgency in her heart and patiently accept the interview:

"Our family are all miners from Cheshire. That's one of the mining areas in the Kroke Kingdom for extracting floating crystals. I've watched them use glycerin mixed with medicinal mud for mining since I was a child, so I just learned a little bit by following them."

"You are truly amazing!"

Seemingly very fond of this cute and sweet-talking little sister, the female reporter affectionately touched her head and continued to ask softly:

"Besides your brother, do you have anyone else in your family?"

"There used to be a grandmother..."

Hearing the female reporter's question, the robber sister's expression dimmed slightly, and then she answered with coldness in her eyes:

"But she should be dead by now. Her lungs were full of dust drifting over from the floating crystal mining area. She was already beyond saving before we escaped."

Ah, this...

Not expecting such an answer, the female reporter's expression froze slightly, and then she said with a hint of apology:

"I'm sorry, I didn't know it was like that..."

"It's okay, we accepted it long ago."

"..."

Since you've already accepted it... then why did you still come to hijack the airship?

Looking at the stubbornness peculiar to children revealed in the robber sister's eyes, the female reporter couldn't help but fall silent, and then couldn't help but cast a pleading look at Li Ang.

Is what she said the truth? If it is, can you let them go? Don't pursue the matter of them hijacking the airship?

No... why are you looking at me?

Feeling speechless at the female reporter's gaze, Li Ang, who was testing for lies with the ram's horn, couldn't help but glare at her in annoyance.

I'm a good person too! Don't make it seem like I'm heartless and ruthless, insisting on putting them to death! Clearly, from the very beginning, I never said I was going to do anything to them, okay?

To think she would be moved by something like this...

Noticing the eye contact between Li Ang and the female reporter, the robber sister bit her lower lip slightly, then clenched her hands tightly, and then lowered her head and whispered:

"Although I don't know what you want to do, if you want to find the location of the Kroke Wang Gong, I am willing to stay and help, as long as you let my brother go."

"No! I don't agree!" Hearing this, the robber brother finally couldn't hold back. He arched his upper body violently with his butt stuck out, shouting with eyes full of anxiety:

"We agreed, you..."

"You rest for a moment."

Pulling out a handkerchief and stuffing it into the robber brother's mouth, completing the physical silencing, Li Ang pulled over a box from the side and sat down, asking while pressing his throbbing temples:

"Let me sort this out... to summarize, it should be that the Kroke Kingdom was mining floating crystals in your hometown, causing you to become orphans. You managed to escape from the mine with great difficulty, and then wanted to seek revenge on the Kroke Kingdom... that's about it, right?"

"Yes."

Hearing Li Ang's words, the robber sister nodded, then gritted her teeth with eyes full of hatred:

"I read in a book that the Kroke Kingdom is closed to the outside world. You can almost never get in from land. Except for a few seaports that open irregularly, only airships can approach that place.

After discussing it with my brother, we sold the two small pieces of floating crystal we stole when we ran out, bought airship tickets and these things, and prepared to avenge our grandmother and everyone in Cheshire!"

It seems it really is about the same as I guessed...

Li Ang couldn't help but rub his brow upon hearing this. Although his soul vision proved that the robber sister was telling the truth, to be on the safe side, he continued to ask with a frown:

"How long have you been escaped from that Cheshire?"

"More than two years."

"Then why didn't you think about revenge back then, and only suddenly prepared to act now?"

"Because we didn't know how to take revenge before."

The robber sister recalled for a moment, then explained:

"We lived in Creekwood Town on the outskirts of the Royal Capital, not far from the airship tower. Last month, when the rebels attacked the airship tower and burned the airship, we could just see that fireball of over a hundred meters from where we lived, and that's when I thought of a way to take revenge."

"..."

Good fellow, your inspiration for revenge actually came from me...

After continuing to ask a few questions with a speechless expression, but finding nothing suspicious, Li Ang couldn't help but sigh in his heart, starting to doubt the purpose of the World Will "arranging" this hijacking.

With the robber brother's humorous operations, it was indeed impossible for him to kill him, but the robber sister's tragic encounter was hard to say.

If he asked anything else, such as digging up the evil deeds beneath the prosperity of the Kroke Kingdom, and then couldn't help but meddle in other people's business, he would definitely be dragged into a huge amount of trouble, and then it would really be possible for him to be killed.

"Let's talk about something else first."

After untying the rope on the robber sister, Li Ang, whose head was throbbing with pain, asked:

"I already know the reason why you hijacked the airship. Now can you tell me what you plan to rely on to find the location of the Kroke Kingdom's Wang Gong."

"..."

Hearing Li Ang's question, the robber sister hesitated slightly and did not answer immediately. Instead, she reached out to roll up her sleeve, revealing a thin, dry arm embedded with dense, deep cyan blood spots.
