Chapter 222: Intervention in progress
Because at present, the cultists commit crimes once every two days, and the time is at night, so the best time for investigation is this evening. It's afternoon, and it's still some time before sunset, and Sheriff Ryan has to sort out the clues he has at hand to deduce the general range of the cultists' activities.
And this is much easier than the original Ryan reasoned, because it was the beginning of the crime, and the places where the cultists committed the crime were very similar, probably for the purpose of testing or luring the police, it is easy to deduce the approximate range.
Moreover, Ryan still had to leave the letter to his director, he knew that his director would definitely hand it over, but he didn't know if he didn't pay attention to it, which was what he had to do, at least to remind his colleagues.
As for his own words, he felt that this time it might be more auspicious, which was why he didn't want Su Ling to go alone, because he felt that a detective like Su Ling would definitely die in the past, and if he also passed, maybe he could buy time for Su Ling to escape. That's right, that's what he planned, if the other party is really a cultist, no matter what, he has to leave someone to come out and report the news.
Su Ling also saw his thoughts, but he didn't remind him of his intentions, anyway, he would definitely make a move when the time came, and these cultists couldn't be his opponents.
Holding the holy sword, he can even fight with A-level, these cultists, it is impossible for them to have A-level existence, if there is really an A-level, it is not enough to attack the king directly, and there is no need to make a small fight in the outer city, so the benefit is really not big. And there is also evidence later, the cultists who have mastered the suspected A-level power directly hit the royal capital. Therefore, at least at this stage, the cultists do not have the strength of the A-rank, or the strength to destroy the royal capital, and in such a situation, they will not act rashly for the time being.
The two separated, and agreed to come to this bar again at eight o'clock in the evening, and Su Ling also wanted to take advantage of this time to wander around the outer city and familiarize himself with the situation, if he happened to meet the cultists, it would be great.
So after walking around the outer city for a few times, Su Ling didn't find the cultist, but he had an unexpected gain, his master's son was found by him.
In the outer city, with the aura of practicing rose swordsmanship, it is a young man, who looks like he has been disguised, very much like his master's son who is investigating something.
However, Su Ling only found the other party, the other party didn't notice him, and he had no reason to contact the other party now, so he just left some breath on the other party's body and left.
These breaths can be quickly found by Su Ling when he wants to look for him, and they are also the breath that belongs to the Rose Swordsmanship, and the other party does not notice that he has left the breath of the Rose Swordsmanship that belongs to Su Ling.
I have to say that this wave of wandering has gained a good harvest, even if he and Ryan can't find the cultist tonight, they can follow this young man to find the cultist, which is equivalent to saying that Su Ling has two hands to prepare.
However, there is one more thing to prevent, if today is the date of death of his master's son in the original trajectory of events, half of his clues will be broken.
Pay more attention at night, the keen intensity of the supreme-level powerhouse is very high, and Su Ling has this confidence. However, in order to move smoothly at night, Su Ling still changed into a black evening dress, put on a top hat, and bought a sword and staff. As for the Cavintin, which he had originally hidden in the piano case, he was received in the preparation room and could be taken out at any time.
This kind of dress can make him pretend to be a gentleman who enjoys the nightlife, although there are not many rich people in the outer city, but there are still some of them, not to mention people who come out of the inner city to find excitement, so this dress is very normal and very confusing. No one would have thought that a harmless gentleman would have supreme-level strength, right?
In the eyes of ordinary people, it is normal for such a strong person to go out with at least dozens of followers.
In the evening, Su Ling arrived at the arranged bar early, but this bar didn't seem to have a good business at night, and the waiter was relatively cold at night, but Su Ling didn't care, just waited for the sheriff to arrive.
The sheriff soon came, looking a little tired, and he also went to the appointment early.
"I've kept you waiting, Mr. Detective, because it took a little more time to prepare something." Ryan said, he also changed his clothes, and his thoughts were unexpectedly similar to Su Ling's, they were all dressed as gentlemen.
"We didn't have to wait long, and it was earlier than we agreed, Sheriff Ryan was quite punctual." Su Ling said with a smile.
"After all, tonight is a big thing, if it's really a cultist, the slightest carelessness will fall into the abyss." He wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, and he didn't know if it was because of the sweat or the cold sweat that came in a hurry, "Mr. Detective, do you want to think about it, after all, this matter is still quite dangerous, if you insist on investigating, I will go alone." After all, this is the job of our police, you can wait for me in the bar, if I don't come back before 12 o'clock in the evening, then there must be cultists in this outer city, and if you tell us about my disappearance, it will definitely attract attention. ”
Sheriff Lane has some uneasiness, probably because of childhood experiences.
"But if that's the case, there's no conclusive evidence, is it? Even if your director believes it, the people above won't believe it easily, after all, this is the royal capital, and at the feet of the queen, such a thing is not allowed. If you only need the director to believe it, you can just tell him about it, right? Su Ling shrugged his shoulders and said.
"Moreover, since I dare to go alone, it must be relied upon. Don't be too nervous, it's just a mere cultist, and they are still afraid of the garrison of the royal capital. Su Ling calmed Ryan.
"In that case, I won't persuade you much." Sergeant Ryan considered the stakes and said, "If there is any danger, Mr. Detective can leave me alone, and just send the evidence to the chief, and it will be a victory." ”
"Don't say more about that, let's talk about the general scope of activities of these cultists." Su Ling urged.
"Okay, this is the location of the four cases, all of them are near Eighth Street in the Blue Rose District, just three blocks away from our bar, and I connected the four cases, probably guessing that they would be centered on Eighth Street." Ryan roughly circled a range on the map.
"Then start your search here." Su Ling said after browsing the map.
