Chapter 41: Pen Workshop

Time passed quickly, and the mental exhaustion became more and more obvious.

Even with the bonus of villager Toko, Su Xian's soul strength was not much stronger than Dimon's.

When he felt that he was about to lose his support, he immediately stood up and slashed Dumon's throat with a sword.

The pig was slaughtered and struggled, but Dimon did not even let out a howl.

He died silently.

……

Light the fire, go downstairs, and leave.

The flames will eventually be extinguished by heavy rain, but some traces will be removed.

Su Xian seemed to be used to setting fires, and he didn't even look back at the burning house when he left.

"Next, go to Dimon's place of residence."

Dumont's home is unexpectedly not far from here, less than a quarter of an hour's walk away.

By the time he reached his residence, the rainstorm had finally shown signs of abating.

The rain curtain hangs, and the sparsely populated area is silent, with not a single light in sight.

He lowered his rain hat and walked briskly, finally finding Dumont's house in a deep alley.

It wasn't a palatial villa, but an ordinary-looking house.

Dumont came to Brut from the royal capital, originally came secretly, and it was impossible to attract attention for the sake of enjoyment, and he was already past the age of enjoying the road.

In addition to having a desire for women that is comparable to that of a young man because of his physical defects, he no longer cares so much about external enjoyment.

Su Xian pushed open the small door on the fence, stepped on the muddy ground, and walked to the front door of the house.

Then he pulled out the key he had retrieved from Dimon and opened the door.

After grinding the mud off the soles of his shoes on the doormat, he entered the room, and without turning on the light, went straight to the second floor.

The house is two and a half floors, and although it has an old appearance, it is quite elegantly furnished on the inside.

Looking left and right, he first came to the room on the left, and pushed the door in.

It's not a bedroom, it's a warehouse with miscellaneous items.

But it's also one of the destinations.

Dumon's ancestral Book of the Gospels was hidden in an old chest in the corner of the warehouse.

Once you know where to hide, finding it becomes very simple.

Su Xian quickly took out an old box from it that was completely ground on the surface.

He opened the box and saw a black cloth package inside, so he took it out and opened it, only to see another treasure chest with gold trim.

This treasure chest is extremely expensive, and it should contain the Book of the Gospels.

The key to the box is now also in his hands.

He took out the key, opened the chest, and found the Gospel, which contained the law of sacrifice.

I don't know how the book has been preserved, it doesn't show the passage of time at all on the surface, it's almost a brand new hardcover.

……

Su Xian was not very interested in this book, his purpose was the parchment hidden in the book!

"Wait, where's the parchment?"

Suddenly, he frowned and stood up sharply.

According to Dimon, the parchment with the emblem of God should be sandwiched between the Gospels!

Dimont, who is at the mercy of the "reverse hanger", cannot lie!

"Could it be that someone is one step ahead?"

Thinking of this, his mind flashed with the impression of the hook-nosed old man with a hooked nose that Dumont had spoken about, and the impression of a person named "Curse Moon" who told him the information of "Luo ●".

"Is it one of those two people? When did they get started? Dimont didn't notice it at all, so it shouldn't be long! ”

There is no light on a rainy night, and the interior of the unlit house is very dark, and you can only barely see, and it is so quiet that it makes people's hearts tremble.

Su Xian summoned the "Luo ●'s Card Album", took a photo of the "Gospel Book", and included it in the card album.

Then he pulled out Link's bayonet and walked briskly to the next bedroom.

The man who stole the parchment doesn't know if it's still there, but since he's already here, there's no reason not to continue.

He pushed open the bedroom door and walked straight to the closet next to the bed.

The black book he had gotten from the hook-nosed old man was hidden in his closet.

There are quite a few clothes hanging in the closet, and at least ten pairs of shoes are placed underneath, and the shoes are padded with fur underneath.

Su Xian picked up the corner of the fur and jerked it open, revealing the black book hidden underneath.

The Black Book was not stolen.

But this made Su Xian more convinced of his guess.

Because those two suspects should both have the same black book.

They called the black book "The Book of the Night Ravens", and the feathers on that pen were "Night Raven Feathers".

The people who owned the Black Book all joined an extremely secretive organization by default, and the name of this organization was called the "Pen Research Society".

It's a simple name, and it doesn't seem to have anything to do with any weirdness, but it's very much in line with the founding purpose of this organization - every member of the organization is a pen pal.

Dimon joined the group about half a year ago, and after obtaining the Book of Night Ravens, he has been offering sacrifices to the Seventh Evil God at a monthly rate.

But this organization was apparently founded half a year ago, and it is known that there is only one contact person for the "Pen Research Society", that is, the hunchbacked old man with a hooked nose.

The old man rarely speaks in the Book of Night Ravens, and members of the Order are accustomed to referring to him as "Night Ravens".

Except for the Night Raven Old Man, the rest of the Pen Research Society basically did not know their true identities, and they called themselves "pen names" and communicated with each other through the "Night Raven Book" to exchange information with each other.

But in fact, perhaps because they were worried that their true identity would be speculated through words, the members of the pen research club were not very active, and only spoke when necessary, and most of them had "private chats" with others.

Dimont has been in the organization for half a year, and there are only a handful of people he has communicated with, and there is only one pen pal who has chatted privately, "Curse Moon".

Su Xian suspected that he had accidentally leaked the address-related information during a private chat with "Curse Moon", and only then was "Cursed Moon" came to the door and stole the parchment!

If the thief is a "night crow", there is no need to wait until now to steal.

Therefore, the suspicion of "cursed moon" is the greatest.

"Cursed Moon! Dimon was the one who exchanged the information of Luo ● from this curse moon. And could Mark have gotten the message from him as well? The fear that Mark is running away from, could it be him? ”

After standing in place for a while with the "Book of Night Crows", Su Xian took a photo of the card album and included the "Book of Night Crows" in the card album.

He then used his bookmark to detect and make sure that there were no rare items in the house, and he chose to leave quickly.

The night is dark, no one is detected, and this place is not suitable for a long time.
