Start with the Readers Chapter 109: Desolator’s Request (2/7)

Early on Tuesday morning, because the news about a lonely hero bravely rushing into the tiger's den to save people gradually became obsolete and was replaced by some new shocking news, Abner was finally not surrounded by tabloid reporters, and left the business quite comfortably. Place.

After arriving at the police station in the bridge area, many police officers greeted him after seeing him, which made Abner a little flattered, and he truly experienced the feeling of being a celebrity.

However, after he checked the latest case files of the police station, the relaxed expression disappeared from his face. Because from last Friday to today, in just two or three days, there have been sixteen deaths in the bridge area caused by sudden dementia or sudden stroke and madness.

"And all the parties involved in the incident are believers of the Lord of Storms... Is this someone provoking the 'Punisher'?"

While Abner was thinking, there was a knock on the door outside the archives, and then Sergeant Eli of the Bridge District Police Station was accompanied by an elderly gentleman with gray hair who looked to be in his sixties or seventies walked in.

"Detective Bryan, this is Inspector Reid of the thirteenth team of the Special Operations Department of the Police Department. He wants to ask you something." Sergeant Eli introduced with a smile when he saw Abner stand up.

Abner took a peek at the old man in front of him, and saw that he had a high nose bridge, deep eye sockets, blue eyes, and a beard. His body was full of wrinkles, as if he hadn't taken care of it for many days. It doesn't look like an inspector at all.

And, Special Operations? This is the vest of the official extraordinary team, right? Punisher or Nighthawk?

Abner was on guard secretly, but on the surface he shook hands with Inspector Rhett enthusiastically, and said politely: "It's an honor to meet you, Inspector Rhett."

"It's a pleasure to meet you too, Mr. Hero of our Backlund." Inspector Reid responded with a half-smile.

I'll take you as a provocation... Others don't know what's going on, but as an official Extraordinary, they must have obtained detailed information from the "Desolate One". Reported by the church.

After a few polite words between the two, Reid explained the purpose of his visit. He wanted to find the case files of sudden onset of dementia or madness in the past few days.

Fortunately, I just sorted out the information, otherwise it would be bad if my employer finds out that I am a salary thief. Abner secretly rejoiced after handing over the previously selected cases to Inspector Rhett.

Although this Rhett did not reveal his identity, his identity in the special operations team, coupled with his focus on these cases against the believers of the Storm Lord, allowed Abner to confirm that he was a member of the "Punisher" .

Like Abner, after a quick scan of the file, Inspector Reid lost his smile and left the police station with only a serious expression on his face.

Seeing that the Punisher took over the case, Abner decided not to intervene any further. He looked at his watch and it was almost noon, so he said goodbye to Sergeant Eli and wanted to go to a nearby restaurant for lunch.

Who would have thought that as soon as he went out, he saw the "Desolate Man" Miss Judy in a blue dress walking towards him with a cup of sweet iced tea. After seeing Abner, she was still far away. waved.

Seeing that she seemed to be here for himself, Abner asked in surprise: "How do you know I'm here?" Obviously the silver-white feathered ghost bird did not follow.

Judy pointed to the vegetation on the side of the road, and said with a smile: "I went to the detective agency, because I couldn't find you, so I had to rely on the guidance of my partners to find you all the way."

Ma'am, you can actually ask the manservant of the teacher’s house, he probably won’t hide my whereabouts... Abner took a look at this young lady who was born a extraordinary person, and wisely did not say these words exit.

"By the way, I almost forgot the business. Karen found some key information, let me come to you and discuss it... Do you have time now?" Judy said after taking a sip of sweet iced tea.

Looking at your leisurely attitude all the way here, I know that this matter is not in a hurry... Abner sneered, looked at his pocket watch, and then said: "I have time...but can I buy two first?" Dixie pie?"

"Sure."

…

South of the Bridge, Rose Street, Abner pulled down his top hat, left the rental carriage, and walked towards the Harvest Church, listening to Ms. Judy beside him muttering:

"Dixi's pies are not as good as Serbia's meringue pies..."

"Abner, when you come to Feneport in the future, I will definitely invite you to try it."

Because it is not a Sunday, the church is still very clean. As soon as Abner opened the door, he saw two "giants" praying in front of the holy emblem, while Karen, the Viscount of the blood clan, was sitting in the first row of seats reading a novel.

"Captain, Father, Karen, I brought Abner back." After greeting Judy, she ran straight to Karen and sat down, then took out a few flowers of different colors from her pocket and handed them Tell him, "This is the night vanilla, deep sleep flower, and chamomile you want. I almost got into a fight with the owner of the herb shop because of them today."

"Thank you, Judy. Silica likes the taste of 'Amanda' hydrosol the most, and now I have all the ingredients for the preparation." Karen first thanked with a smile, and then asked curiously, "So Your personality can even quarrel with others? It's really rare."

"You don't know how annoying that shopkeeper is! I only had a few words with him, and he called me 'Silly Girl'." Judy was still a little angry when she recalled it.

"So you punished him?" Karen asked with a smile, sympathizing with the shopkeeper.

"He won't be able to speak for at least three days! Hmph, the medicine I prescribed is not something that a 'pharmacist' can cure." Judy snorted and said with a wicked smile.

The owner of the herb shop you are talking about is Darkwill, right? Well, if Judy found the bridge police station all the way from the detective agency, she happened to pass by Fat Pharmacist's shop... Abner was dumbfounded when he heard it, and he felt that he must have guessed right.

At this time, Bishop Utravsky and Captain Arsenov stood up, and the shadows of the two giants directly enveloped Judy and Karen in the first row, making them shut up at the same time.

After waiting for the bishop to say hello to Abner, Captain Arsenov said sincerely to him:

"Mr. Blaine, I'm sorry to disturb your normal life, but we need your help with a tricky matter..."

"What is it?" Abner asked cautiously without immediately agreeing. Although he also wanted to catch that witch as soon as possible, but if it was too dangerous, he would definitely not agree.

Captain Arsenov looked at Karen in the first row and said, "My Loen grammar is not good, and most of the descriptions are too blunt. You should introduce the situation to Mr. Brian."

"Okay, captain." Karen nodded, then turned to face Abner, and smiled gracefully:

"Mr. Blaine, let me explain to you in detail."

"Please tell me." Abner said politely.

Karen said with a magnetic and beautiful voice:

"Because the previous company's warehouse was completely destroyed, and there were no more clues at Leonardo's house, our investigation has reached a stalemate, and we can only passively wait for the witch who kept the 'alienated monster' to show up on her own initiative. body."

"So the captain and I decided to change the direction of investigation, and plan to find out where the bottle of heresy perfume came from."

"I investigated Dr. Leonardo's interpersonal relationship in the period before he became a 'Harvest Sacrifice' through the relationship of the local blood clan... After a series of investigations, I identified a very suspicious person Ms."

"Her name is Windsor Belling, and she is the wife of a coal merchant and the mistress of Viscount Loveland."

"We found out that Leonardo had a very close relationship with her, and was even warned by Viscount Loveland. Even after Leonardo became a 'harvest priest', he still did not stop communicating with her... I A blood descendant saw the two of them go to a secret circle party together last month."

"In summary, we plan to control this Ms. Windsor Belling first, and get some important information from her mouth."

Windsor Behring... This name is somewhat familiar... Abner frowned, and seriously recalled the content of the original work. Generally, those he has never seen but sounds familiar are characters that appeared in the original novel.

That's right, Windsor Belling was the first follower of the "Primitive Moon" that Emlyn killed when he participated in the Blood Race's "hunting competition"! It turns out that the one I almost saw when I was backtracking was the original moon...

Although Abner does not remember the knowledge of the Outer Gods, the "primordial moon" as the vest of the Outer Gods is also a widely circulated name among low- and middle-level Beyonders, and Abner can still remember the plots related to it. up.

After recalling the origin of Windsor, Abner had new doubts again, and said to himself: Aren't all your official Beyonders reckless in doing things? Why not just go and arrest people for interrogation? Also, what's wrong with me here?

It seems to have seen the doubts in Abner's heart~IndoMTL.com~Karen explained:

"Whether it is Windsor Belling's husband or her lover, they are believers of the Goddess of the Night on the surface, and their residence is not far from St. Samuel's Church... It is impossible for us to break into the law in such a place ...will attract the intervention of the Nighthawks."

"And that Ms. Windsor also lives reclusively, she won't leave the North District easily, and even if she comes out, she will always follow the Viscount Loveland, so it's difficult to get her hands on."

Also, although the Mother Earth Goddess and the Goddess of the Night are secretly allied, they still have to show hostility on the surface, otherwise they may be spotted by the God of War...

But what does this have to do with me? Can you still ask me to lure that lady out? Abner slandered, and asked on the surface: "Please tell me, what do you need me to do?"

"We found out that Windsor will go to the "Daily Observer" dance with Viscount Loveland this Friday night..."

"We hope that you can get me or Judy a chance to enter the ball venue through Detective Essinger's contacts."
