Chapter 469: It's All the Same
Qiu Xuan finally meets the Carson sisters.
Very dramatically, they ran into each other at the door of the public restroom. When she met the two sisters, Qiu Xuan was finishing a magic show she had watched in the last time, and she walked forward while looking down about things, and when she looked up, she saw Lilia hiding her face and crying in the mirror.
…… Wait a minute.
The one who cried should be Lilith.
Qiu Xuan was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that the position she was standing in was in the mirror direction of the conjoined sisters, and the portrait she saw was the opposite. The head that is crying now belongs to the person on the "left" in the mirror, so if it corresponds to reality, it is actually Lilith on the right who is actually crying.
When he realized this, Qiu Xuan was indeed stunned for a few seconds. Because in those few memories of hers, it seemed that no matter what happened, the soul called Lilith always looked cold and indifferent.
Besides, if it weren't for Lilith being imprisoned in place by this body, things wouldn't be the way they are now.
"Come out if you see it, don't hide."
In the mirror, the man on the "right" says.
Qiu Xuan paused, wiped her hands and walked out of the corner calmly. The perspective returned to the plane, and Lilia turned to look at her, her tone indifferent and cold.
"Who are you?"
"Just a spectator who buys a ticket to see the circus." At this point in time, the Siamese sisters had never been to St. Canaan at all, and naturally they would not know who Qiu Xuan was. So Qiu Xuan naturally didn't have to worry about this, she asked casually: "I originally wanted to go to your show, but the staff told me that you took leave today." Why? Is it because I am not feeling well, I know a good doctor, would I like to introduce it to you? I really like you guys. ”
Lilith stopped sobbing, she wiped her red and swollen eyes and looked at Qiu Xuan, but Lilia still frowned.
They looked at each other silently for a moment, and suddenly, Lilia chuckled softly.
"You said you liked us a lot?" She repeated Qiu Xuan's words before, "How much do you like it?" Can you die for us? ”
Qiu Xuan: "? There's no need, it's just politeness. ”
Lilia: "...... So you're lying to me. ”
"Did you take a leave of absence because there was something wrong with last night's 'magic' and you were injured?" At this moment, Qiu Xuan's tone changed and he suddenly said. She noticed that Lilith's expression on the right side seemed to stiffen for a moment when the words landed, and she confirmed a few guesses in her mind.
Lilia stared at her with a cold gaze like a bone, and said coldly, "There was nothing wrong with our performance, and this is not something you should be looking into." ”
"I just asked casually."
"Unless you buy us."
Qiu Xuan raised her eyebrows, "What did you say?" ”
"Unless you buy us." Lilia repeated. On the right, Lilith stopped crying, hiccuped silently, and tried to pull her left hand with her right hand, but the next second was swept away by Lilia's vicious force.
"Buy us and redeem us from the circus, and you can know and do whatever you want."
The clapping of hands against each other made an overly obvious sound in the air, and Lilith froze, then tilted her head back and cried silently.
Lilith was really wrong.
Qiu Xuan said in her heart, in this short period of time, the image she showed was very different from what she had seen in the past, but Lilia seemed to have grown a lot overnight (?) )。
"What can I do if I buy you?" Qiu Xuan continued with Lilia's words, "I don't have any special fetishes, and judging from your status in the circus, you must need a lot of money, give me a reason." ”
"If you don't have money, don't talk nonsense."
Lilia manipulated her body and turned to leave, leaving a word without looking back. "It's ridiculous that the poor are still watching a circus."
Qiu Xuan: "......"
Then she also walked out of the public restroom, and as soon as she got out of the door, she hurried in a certain direction. Ed had just come over and hurriedly tried to stop her, "What are you doing?" Ah Guang said that he seemed to have seen the conjoined twins just now, and we are going to block them, you come quickly! ”
"There's no need."
Qiu Xuan pulled Ed, who was like a spinning top all the time, "If we do it alone, this spiritual world will be almost over." ”
……
"Clemson?"
Chiara was barricaded in a remote uninhabited tent in the circus, frowning as she looked at the list. "I know him, Clemmenson's father worked in the Central Church and is one of the few cardinals. But he seems to have had no intention of teaching canons since he was a child, and he heard that he seemed to be engaged in art when he became a monk halfway. ”
Qiu Xuan: "Doesn't his father support it?" ”
"Of course not," Kiara shrugged. "His father is bent on him inheriting his mantle, but Cleminson just doesn't want to do it everywhere, and it's okay that he hasn't been expelled from the family until now."
"That's not him." Qiu Xuan crossed the list, "It is impossible for those who engage in art to be rich." ”
Kiara: "...... So what the hell is going on with you suddenly bringing this? ”
"Somebody paid for the Siamese sisters."
Qiu Xuankong glanced up at her, "Now as long as you find out who is spending the money, you can end all this." ”
"That's it?" Kiara was skeptical, "But it can't be." According to the Carson sisters' records, they were caught by hunters three years after entering the circus, and at the age of seventeen they were imprisoned in the Curiosities Human Management Center, during which time they were not heard of by any buyers, and they remained in the circus for the rest of their lives. ”
"Just because someone spends money to buy it doesn't mean they can actually buy it." "It's possible that the circus isn't willing to give up such a cash cow — unless the price is so high that people don't care about it — or it's possible that the sisters did something on their own that caused the sale to be aborted." ”
Ed silently raised his hand, "What can they do?" ”
"For example, killing the buyer." Qiu Xuan glanced at him, "If the person who made the bid is gone, then the transaction will naturally be invalidated." "Good Mood Literature Network
"Why do you think that?" Kiara's face darkened, "How long have you known Sister Carson?" How can you conclude in such a short period of time that such a weak-looking young girl can kill someone at such an age without care. ”
She's tempting.
Qiu Xuan knew this. Because she had secretly looked at the files, she knew what the sisters had done before entering St. Canaan, but if you only looked at Chiara, of all the eight people present, she was the only one who was qualified to access the patient files as a saint of the church.
If you expose this fact, there is really nothing. It's just that in this case, Qin Jiuyuan, as the administrator of Saint Canaan, will be implicated because of this, even if he shouldn't know that the key was taken by Qiu Xuan until now.
"Because ordinary 'weak young girls' are not going to be put in a mental hospital." Qiu Xuan showed a smirk, "Even if they have birth defects, it should be a matter of the hospital, not an insane asylum." ”
Chiara looked back, not knowing whether she believed it or not.
"If you just take it out of your list, it's very informative." Kiara tapped a few names on the paper, "In just a few moments, I've seen several familiar names on it." And a lot of them are faculty members in key positions, which really makes me ...... Amazing. ”
She said this with a hint of disbelief and gnashing of teeth, "It seems that it is time to proceed with the year-end liquidation work ahead of schedule, isn't it?" ”
Qiu Xuan didn't really care about what kind of human-faced beasts in their church were well-dressed on the surface and pickled behind their backs, there were too many of them, almost everywhere. She swiped her fingers over a few key subjects, and suddenly said, "Actually, there is an easier way." ”
"What?"
"Find a man with a missing ring finger on his left hand." Qiu Xuan glanced in the direction of a certain stall from afar, "Find this person, find out the boss behind him, even if you find the person who paid to buy the Carson sisters." ”
"I have missing a ring finger in my left hand...... "Kiara looked back sharply, "I think I saw such a person today, just in the morning, when the circus had just entered the morning show!" ”
……
They finally found yesterday's imposter owner, but only half of them.
Half is half in the literal sense of the word. A corpse split in half from the middle, one on the left and one on the right, was so well-proportioned that it looked like it had come from some corpse-splitting maniac with severe obsessive-compulsive disorder.
"Are you sure this is the man?"
"Sure."
Qiu Xuan put the right half of the skull that he picked up from almost the other direction on the ground, and put it together with the left half, forming a face that was indeed the impostor he saw yesterday pretending to be the owner of the balloon stall.
Ed pursed his lips, "Now...... Clue broken? ”
"Not necessarily." Qiu Xuan thought for a while and explained, "This 'necessarily' specifically refers to whether this person was killed by the boss behind the mill and killed the donkey, or someone else." ”
"That should be someone else."
Chiara glanced at the two of them meaningfully, "According to the files, the Carson sisters are indeed murderers with many criminal records. Most of the people they killed had a characteristic, that is, they would be divided into two halves, symbolizing two people, one and a half, no more, no less. ”
"Ah, thank you for the science." Qiu Xuan pretended to applaud Kiara as if it was the first time she had heard about it, "Then the situation is clear now." Last night, this imposter was working for the boss behind him, but the Carson sisters saw it and held a grudge against it, so they killed people in a fit of rage. It's a sign of anger that they don't want to be bought. ”
As she spoke, she lowered her eyes to look at the prosthetic object on the finger of the corpse on the left half of the ground on the ground. "It's very delicately made."
"Of course, it's fine."
Kiara grinded her back molars, and her tone sounded a bit gnashing. "This is a prosthetic leg that only the internal members of the Hunter Bureau are eligible to install, and even the workmanship of a bionic finger is foolproof to ensure perfection, and it is also a benefit that the church has given to those hunters who have struggled in the rain of bullets over the years."
"That's right, the Central Church and the General Bureau of Hunters, if you want to be rich together, you want to be dirty, you are quite united."
Kia looked at her expressionlessly.
Ed quietly pulled Qiu Xuan's sleeve, meaning not to let people not get off the stage.
It's just that in the next second, Kiara retracted her gaze.
"Dirty......" she repeated with a sneer, and suddenly said, "You're right." On the surface, it seems to be glamorous, and it seems to be giving justice and preaching the divine scriptures, but in fact, the inside is all rotten, nothing more than a nest of snakes and rats. ”
Qiu Xuan raised an eyebrow.
Chiara's fingertips brushed over the cross and roses engraved on the Glock 18 gun in her hand.
"I will make all those who are not worthy of virtue pay." She said, "Even if that person is a 'god' who stands in the highest heaven. ”
“……”
This is probably the first time that Qiu Xuan has really recognized Kiara. She had no deep impression of the saint until then, and the only thing she remembered was her amazing marksmanship, and the fact that she even slapped people on the shoulder when she spoke to some cardinal in high places at breakfast on the first day.
Regardless of Chiara's position, her words alone made her more qualified than the vast majority of the Central Church to stand in the Templar Table.
Qiu Xuan raised her eyes.
After a brief remark, Kiara put away her gun and walked straight in one direction.
Ed hesitated to follow behind, Qiu Xuan nodded in acquiescence, but instead of the path Kiara was taking, he turned in another direction.
"You went over and told Ya that they were going to pack up and go back...... Forget it, they should be there too, you might as well come with me. ”
Qiu Xuan took Ed all the way to the tent where the Carson sisters had rested in the message last night. Sure enough, when they arrived there, they saw that Ya and a few other colleagues were already standing there preparing countermeasures.
"The twins are in there?"
Qiu Xuan walked over and asked, and Ya answered. "But they said they had taken a leave of absence today, and no one wanted to see them. And in turn, it warns us that if we are annoyed, it will teach us a lesson. You know, these people are not afraid of threats at all, but since the owners of this spiritual world itself are the Carson sisters, there is no way to do it if they are not convinced, and they are afraid that they will die directly with us. ”
Qiu Xuan nodded, indicating understanding.
After ordering it, she touched it, took out a firecracker from the accompanying space, lit it, and threw it directly into the tent along the door curtain.
