Book 7: Chapter 32: Different Paths
Qin Lun had two purposes for killing Uvogin, planting explosives inside his body, and not notifying Dalzollene and the others.
One was to continue collecting information on the abilities of the Troupe members, to decide on the next target to eliminate.
The second was to anger the Troupe, forcing them to kill Dalzollene and his team. He also wanted Kurapika to fall into deep self-blame, to abandon any wishful thinking, and to carry out his plans with the goal of killing Troupe members, not capturing them.
After a long silence, Kurapika lowered his hand. The blood-red color in his eyes slowly faded. He turned and looked calmly at Qin Lun. “I admit I made a mistake. However, I still have some questions I want to ask you. I hope you answer me honestly!”
“Ask away. I will tell you everything I know!” Qin Lun nodded.
Kurapika pointed at the surveillance video and asked, “Have you been setting up a plan ever since you learned about the Phantom Troupe?”
“Yes. Precautionary measures!” Qin Lun smiled slightly and nodded in acknowledgment.
“What about Baise then? That explosive doll shouldn’t have been Baise, right?” Kurapika said flatly.
“She is still alive. I replaced her with this doll before the auction started!” Qin Lun confessed. “However, after the auction, I made her leave Yorknew City and forced her not to notify you.”
