Chapter 730: Assault on the Police

The artist's talent was appreciated by Jagu, who would fulfill all the demands he made.

But the servants found that the artist demanded not only books and musical instruments, but also tools and materials that had nothing to do with art.

Caitlin records in the Codex that the killer had lived in Myrdada's house as an artist, but the motive for the murder was unclear.

The murderer had many opportunities to have private contact with Jagu before committing the murder, but why did he go to such lengths to arrange the location of the murder in a theater in full view, and was this deliberately done for anyone to see?

Caitlin asks to go to the room where the killer frequents, but she will never forget the scene she sees when she opens the door.

Someone had already arrived in the piano room before them, and it was the maid who was in charge of the artist's daily life.

She stepped into a trap, the blade of steel sharpened into the shape of a petal. The murderous lotus bit one of the maid's legs, and the petals turned and cut at high speed, and the flesh was shattered, splashing bright red on the cyan wall.

It was a ...... scene Appalling.

Caitlin struggled to hold back the vomiting sensation that rushed to her head, and walked out of the piano room with a pale face. After witnessing the tragic scene in the world, her legs went limp. She didn't dare to close her eyes until she was ready, for she was afraid that the miserable death of the maid would come back to her mind after closing her eyes.

Caitlyn was only one of the first to see the corpse, and after her, a family guard stumbled out of the piano room, his face pale and his expression hollow.

He walked a few steps, fell down the steps, and then hugged his head and cried: "Her flesh and blood, it is really ...... It's ......."

One of the servants in the crowd burst out laughing, then sobbed, his face painted with madness: "He saw it, he saw the flower!" ”

These people will not be able to forget what they have seen today, and this horrific scene will create countless nightmares tonight.

"I see ......," Vi came over to comfort Caitlyn. Although it wasn't as shocking as what she had just seen, she had seen a lot of miserable corpses in Zu'an before, so she was calm.

"Don't talk about it." Caitlin pulled Vi out of the crowd and looked at her with a serious face: "If you know something, then say it!" Do you have a good conscience to allow such a devil to continue to kill? ”

Vi looked at Caitlyn with a complicated expression and told some of the secrets she knew:

"I also vaguely heard what Jia Gu said, the real identity of the murderer is a killer sent by Baron Takeda, nicknamed the Golden Demon, and Jia Gu is his answer."

"Are you sure you're not lying to me? I've never heard of a killer who would kill someone. Caitlin stared meaningfully at the tattoo on her cheek, and the thick confusion on her face almost overflowed.

Vi didn't answer, because that's all she knew.

Caitlyn took a deep breath and didn't continue to ask, but instead followed the clues provided by Vi and began to analyze.

Takeda and Jagu had colluded before, but when we tracked down Takeda, the two of them cleared up all ties in time. Although the alchemy poison that the two had worked together to create was seized, his men managed to escape. Takeda, who escaped from Zuan, was not reconciled, so he sent killers to retaliate.

But to whom does he want revenge? At that time, there were so many people involved that the police department and even the major families were involved in the encirclement and suppression of Takeda.

Jagu assisted Takeda to escape, and Takeda shouldn't take revenge!

Could it be that he wants to cause chaos in the whole city of Leather by relying on one person? And that attack in the theater was just a preview before a good show?

Killing the rulers of the major families does work, but why do it to an innocent maid? And the murderer's two murder methods are extremely exaggerated and terrifying, what is this expressing?

Thinking of this, Caitlyn only felt a headache, she still knew too little about this murderer, and there was no way to guess his motive for committing the crime.

Just when Caitlin had a headache, her instincts, which she had developed over the years, told her that she had been targeted by some kind of malice. She began to move under the wall, scanning the faces of the crowd of onlookers.

Her unusual gaze met Wei's eyes, and the latter's emotions were instantly aroused.

Bang!

Caitlyn chuckled in her heart, and suddenly a gunshot rang out, and she blinked her eyes subconsciously, and then heard the howl of death, which sounded very close to her.

She opened her eyes, and a large shadow stood in front of herβ€”Vi used her massive gloves to block a bullet for Caitlyn, and on the back of the gloves, the smoke of the theater was violently emitted.

Caitlin instantly understood: the killer had done it to herself!

She forced herself to calm down, and heard the chance to fight back from the sound of the gunfire - the killer was armed with a sniper rifle, and this kind of gun usually has a long firing interval, and this interval is the best time for her to fight back!

She lowered her head and rounded Vi's gloves, swooping out of the smoke as she pulled the bolt and shot in the direction the bullet was flying.

Through the high-precision eyepieces, she keenly noticed that in a hotel hundreds of meters away from the manor, the gunman was wiping his sniper rifle, and the smooth leather mask was smiling at her, and then slid into an invisible corner.

Within a few seconds of Caitlin's stunned moments, panic cries for help, such as assaulting the police, had already spread throughout the manor.

"Sheriff Caitlin, are you alright?"

The officers, including Vi, came over to inquire about Caitlyn's condition, for her current sluggishness was indeed easy to think of if something had happened when she had just been in the smoke.

"I'm fine, the murderer is in the hotel in front, let's hurry over and block him now." In the panicked gaze of the crowd, Caitlin shook her head and carried her gun behind her back to let several police officers follow her out of the manor.

But when they arrived at the hotel and blocked the exit and began to check room by room, the murderer had already disguised himself as an elderly businessman with a sad face in advance, and successfully blended into the surprised crowd on the street.

Caitlin's search continued into the evening, and it was not until she personally confirmed that there was no trace of the murderer in every room that she reluctantly let her officers withdraw from the hotel.

But the operation was not without success, at least she was sure that if the killer did not escape the city before martial law, then he would definitely continue to kill, and she would do her best to arrest the killer before the next move.

The first day of the three days was coming to an end, and the manhunt was still going on throughout the city until the perpetrators were brought to justice. It's late at night, but it's not time to rest, and Caitlin has to go back to the police station to look through the archives about the "Golden Devil".
