Start with the Readers Chapter 130: Abner who was arrested and active
Trier, South West.
On Connor Street at night, gas street lamps illuminate the flat road, and the crimson moon hangs high.
A three-member "Mechanical Heart" team used their agility to cover each other and quietly climbed over the wall of Representative Alice Kemp's house.
They walked quickly through the garden, came to the side of the house, and cooperated with each other to climb up to the balcony on the second floor.
"Captain, there seems to be no one..." Pierre, a bearded man in the three-person group, said softly after using a Tarot card to open the window latch.
"This is very abnormal. Even if Ms. Kemp is out on business, her servants should be there!" The captain with short brown hair frowned.
According to the information provided by nearby informants, Russell visited Congressman Kemp for unknown purpose this morning and left in the afternoon.
The "Mechanical Heart" team that has been following Russell wanted to take advantage of the darkness to investigate and see if there were any new clues.
And Alice Kemp is a member of Congress and also the apparent identity of "Ancient Scholar" Daphne... Of course, the "Mechanical Heart" team does not know about the latter point.
"Is something wrong? I remember that informant said that after Russell left, he never saw the Kemp family's servants go out again..." The only woman in the trio, "Wizard "The lady said solemnly.
Hearing that, although the young short-haired captain didn't reply, the action of loading the bullet made the other two team members raise their vigilance to the highest level.
However, when the three sneaked into Mr. Kemp's house, they did not find any **** and cruel scenes. The whole house was empty, but half of the coffee was drunk in the living room. Potatoes that have been cut but not put into the pot... These and other signs indicate that the people in the house disappeared suddenly.
"Russell killed them and disposed of the corpse?" After the three people who searched around the whole house separately gathered together again, the bearded man Pierre first expressed his guess.
"You mean that Congressman Kemp offended him, or possessed some important evidence, so Russell came to kill him?" Ms. "Wizard" asked thoughtfully.
"The latter is more likely, but it doesn't look like his long-planned action, and it is more likely to be a temporary intention! If it was premeditated, Russell would not let anyone see him coming to Kemp's house. "The bearded Pierre analyzed.
The captain's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he clapped his hands and said, "In other words, there is a high probability that he discovered Ms. Kemp's hidden secret after arriving here, so he acted in a hurry, and maybe he missed something. Clue!"
Speaking of which, the captain looked at Ms. "Wizard", "Lisa, try divination to see if there is a dark room here."
If Congressman Kemp leaves any evidence, it must be better hidden, and "demons" are not good at divination.
Ms. "Wizard" nodded, took out the silver chain and held it in the palm of her hand, let the pendulum hang down, and entered the state of meditation.
Her eyes deepened, and she whispered to herself:
"This house has secret rooms or secret compartments."
"This house has secret rooms or secret compartments."
…
After seven times, the color of "Wizard" Lisa's pupils returned to normal. She looked at the citrine pendant and saw it spinning clockwise.
That means yes!
Seeing such a result, the three of them naturally began to search again, and quickly used "divination" to find a small dark room in the living room.
This darkroom contains nothing but a small bookshelf with a stack of papers on it.
The captain carefully picked up the file, and after only a few glances, he was stunned. He only felt that the blood all over his body rushed straight to his brain, making his body shake.
"If the contents of the document are true...the consequences..." After flipping through a few more pages, the captain took a deep breath and calmed down.
It's no wonder that Russell wants to kill people, it turns out that Ms. Kemp has such evidence!
Now, the most important task is to send this document back to the church... No, it is best to send it to a certain archbishop or senior deacon.
But as soon as he thought of this, he felt as if his "heart" was being held by someone. At the same time, his spiritual intuition was frantically warning, making him stand still in place, not daring to act rashly.
And his two teammates are in the same state as him, and they seem to have lost their ability to move.
At this time, a man with neatly combed hair came out of the shadows, gracefully took the stack of documents from the captain's hand, and said with a smile, "Thank you very much for helping me find these things... sure enough , professional things have to be done by professional people.”
"Russell!" The three members of "Heart of the Machine" said the name through gritted teeth at the same time.
"It's rare for the three of you to know my name, so I will try my best to make your death less painful, just like Ms. Kemp, the owner here." Russell smiled and said a terrible sentence.
As he spoke, he was about to stretch out his right hand and make a fist movement.
Just at the very moment, a mysterious pattern composed of many symbols suddenly appeared under the feet of the three "Mechanical Heart" members, and in the next moment, their figures appeared on the street outside the courtyard wall of the house.
This is because the sealed item "2-113" they carried played a role.
It is a flag-like item, as long as it is inserted in a certain position in advance, the person who touched it can return to it after half an hour. Up to three people, up to 100 meters away.
For the sake of safety, the three "Mechanical Heart" members planted the flag in a nearby alley before exploring the house, which happened to save their lives at the moment.
"Run separately! Be sure to bring Russell and the prime minister's conspiracy back to the church!" The captain ordered the two team members as soon as he got out of the state of being controlled by his heart.
Then, the three of them walked in three directions tacitly.
The bearded Pierre is an "appraiser". Although the potion has added to his physical strength, it is limited after all. His speed is the slowest among the three.
So after only running across a street, he was blocked by a three-meter-high "demon" with a sulfur smell and bat-like fleshy wings growing out of his back.
Although Pierre was full of despair, as the "Mechanical Heart", he still bravely raised the revolver in his hand, ready to fight with him and die with honor.
But at this moment, a solemn voice came from midair: "The mystery here is weakened, and the reality is strengthened!"
As the words fell, the entire body of the three-meter-high monster seemed to be disintegrating.
It gave the person a "deep" look, then turned around and flew away without hesitation.
The gentleman who made the sound didn't seem to intend to let it go, and also used magical items to catch up.
Pierre tried his best to raise his head, and vaguely saw a young figure in a top hat and a formal suit.
While he was in a daze, he suddenly heard someone calling his name, and when he looked back, it was the captain and Miss "Wizard" who were chasing after him.
"What about you?" Pierre was still dazed, thinking that he might be dreaming.
"It was Mr. 'Professor' who happened to pass by and saved us." Ms. Wizard said quickly.
"'Professor'? That young gentleman?" Pierre finally regained his composure and asked casually.
"Yes, he calls himself 'Professor', maybe Russell's enemy...but now is not the time to talk, we have to go to the nearest church to ask for support ~IndoMTL.com~ The captain quickly issued an order.
"Yes, Captain!"
…
In a house not far away, Daphne, who had released the "historical projection", smiled and said to Abner in front of her, "My lord, how is my performance?"
For the sake of this play, she even gave up her status as a congressman in the open.
"That's right." Abner was not a stingy person. Just as he was about to say a few more words of praise, his spirituality was suddenly touched. He turned his head suddenly, and saw a tall man with long chestnut hair, At some point, a handsome young man appeared outside the balcony on the second floor.
Although I haven't seen it before, but the moment I saw the whole young man, the name appeared in Abner's mind:
"Bonois Gustave."
