Start with the Readers Chapter 262: Pursuing the killer
"Although Earl Gross is a believer of the goddess, he behaves indiscreetly in his private life, and he especially likes immature boys...
"But because he never coerces, every time it is a 'transaction', so the church can only 'persuade' him implicitly, but the effect is not good.
"Earl Gross obviously knows that his 'hobby' is not liked by the church, so every time he goes to 'entertainment', he will deliberately shake off the 'Nighthawks' sent by the church to him.
"But what the Earl didn't know was that the Church's protection for him was actually one-on-one. His past actions had been recorded by the secret Nighthawks.
"This means that he really never crossed the bottom line of the church, otherwise he would have been cleared by the official Extraordinary himself.
"The assassination of Earl Gross this time also coincided with the day when he threw off the bright-faced Nighthawk, but unfortunately, the Nighthawk who secretly protected him came into contact with a sealed item the day before , resulting in a poor mental state, showing signs of losing control, and even thinking that he was still in a dream for a while, and failed to keep up with the earl's footsteps.
"In addition, among the four Extraordinary bodyguards hired by Earl Gross himself, the strongest Sequence 6 'Dawn Knight' happened to encounter an enemy when the Earl was assassinated, and it didn't play any role.
"Two of the other three did not carry the corresponding Extraordinary items due to various negligence. As a result, they were helpless against the 'nightmare' that assassinated the earl, and could only watch the earl die.
"As for the extraordinary bodyguard at the end, it was the murderer himself... The murderer replaced him a day ago, but he didn't arouse anyone's suspicion, including the two nighthawks.
"If it's just one thing, it can still be described as a coincidence, but if so many accidents are added together, it means that someone is definitely manipulating everything behind it!"
After explaining his analysis, Leonard lowered his voice and asked as if muttering to himself: "Old man, will it be '0-08'?"
"It doesn't look like...and I confirm that '0-08' is not in this city." A slightly old voice echoed in his mind.
"Isn't it '0-08'?" Leonard frowned, "But this case feels very similar to Tingen."
"Your feeling is correct... It should be done by a high-sequence 'spectator'... But I don't know who it is... After all, the techniques of those I know are much better than this , at least you will not be able to see the flaw." Pallez laughed with an old voice.
Leonard wanted to ask a few more questions, but at this moment, the captain of the "Red Gloves", Soster, entered the room, threw a stack of documents on the table, looked around and said:
"According to the available information, it can be preliminarily confirmed that the murderer is the 'Black Blade' of the Church of God of War!"
"Black Blade" is the name of the elite team of the "God of War" church. It is similar to "Red Gloves", but its functions are different. "Black Blade" is more about doing some "dirty work".
"The 'Black Blade' of the Church of God of War? How dare you do something in Backlund...and succeed? Who gave him, or them, the information and support?" A "red glove" frowned and said .
"It's not clear, but you should be able to imagine how bad this matter is.
"After killing people with the ability of 'Nightmare', that 'Black Blade' also exposed Earl Gross's 'hobby'!
"In addition, our Nighthawks were indeed negligent at the time...
"If the murderer cannot be caught as soon as possible, perhaps the great nobles who believe in the goddess will be shaken." Captain Soest paused here, as if he had received some news, then he looked around again and said , "The latest information, someone found the murderer on the train bound for Conston, we will immediately set off in the airship and intercept him!"
"Captain, that 'Black Blade' is likely to get off the car halfway..." Bob the "Red Glove" with a sharp chin frowned and shook his head.
Souster waved his hand and said, "The archbishop has notified the nighthawks from all over the place to cooperate with us... and the Holy Church just ordered him to be captured at any cost, even if he fled back to Fusac, as long as he didn't 'Giant Palace at Dusk', don't give up either!
"Got it?"
"Yes, captain!" All the "red gloves" answered in unison with awe in their hearts.
"Very well, now I will give you half an hour to prepare... Half an hour later, I will gather at the airship base in the western suburbs on time.
"By the way, the materials on the table are about the 'Black Blade', each of you take a copy and take a look on the road." After Soest finished speaking, he walked out first.
Seeing this, Leonard picked up a document and flipped through it casually.
As for the female team member beside him, Cindy with long wine-red hair, while taking the information, she muttered dissatisfiedly: "Let's try our best to avenge a scumbag, it's really annoying to think about it." Ah!"
"Earl Gross is a devout follower of the goddess, and what he did before is also acquiesced, isn't it?" Bob on the side comforted his companion.
"A devout follower of a goddess would not do such a perverted thing! I think his piety is only reflected in his hard work in donations, right?" Cindy scoffed at this, as she was born as a commoner and never liked the nobles.
Leonard ignored the complaints of his colleagues. He roughly looked through the information of the "Black Blade", and found that the other party had appeared in the espionage case involving the "Difference Engine Manuscript". His inaction caused the death of his Detective Zreal.
This person may not be very loyal to the God of War, or to Feysac, why would he take the initiative to provoke the Church of Evernight?
In addition, a "seal" Extraordinary item that was recovered by "MI9" was stolen again before the assassination... That item seems to be made of the Extraordinary characteristics of the "Night Watchman"... The murderer The reason why he can use the powerful "nightmare" ability is suspected to rely on this item?
What does the royal family of Loen eat? How could such important sealed items be stolen in succession?
Huh? Wait, "Ince Zangwill" did the first theft of the "seal" sealed item? !
Is the person in charge...Hugh Dilza...Miss "Judgment"?
Well, maybe I should ask Mister Fool...
In addition, I can't get the witch-type item promised by Mr. "Tower" to be made tonight or tomorrow morning... After all, I will act with the captain in half an hour, and praying to Mr. It can be done, but it is impossible to deceive colleagues by arranging the ceremony of praying for bestowal.
Sighing, Leonard found an excuse, went to the bathroom first, and then clasped his hands in prayer:
"A fool who does not belong to this era..."
…
No. 160, Boklund Street~IndoMTL.com~ Klein just finished dinner, returned to the semi-open room with a large balcony, and sat on the easy chair, when he heard the sound of prayer, he frowned, but Still immediately came above the gray mist.
"Sudden assassination incident... Loen's official items were stolen again...
"Unknown source of intelligence...
"Wouldn't it be that the Loen royal family deliberately diverted the attention of the Church of Evernight in order to do something?"
…
Early on Tuesday morning, after collecting all Russell's diaries and saying goodbye to Bernadette contentedly, Abner directly "teleported" to his own steam workshop in the North District.
