I had been looking through the bars of the prison and at the unchanging walls for eight hours, and they had not allowed anyone to visit me or speak to me. I could have easily escaped, but that didn't work, it was the next step.

Eight hours earlier, when the Rangers arrived, I was tied up, there was no point in resisting, I didn't know how to handle it properly. They undoubtedly recognized me, but no one asked, they knew it was strange, they knew it was unusual.

They all choose to remain silent, not like some impulsive, reckless, self-acting idiot.

The mask sneaked away and took the Ashi sisters with him, while the rest of the slaves and blacks were controlled by the rangers, and the ranger commander didn't ask them, was it Legang who ordered them?

Fishbones, deal with them, negotiate with them, behave harmlessly, you are still useful to them, they may open the net.

But I'm just investigating the case, and I've killed at least all the villains who disobeyed the law, and I didn't do anything wrong.

It has nothing to do with right or wrong, as you already know, this matter involves the interests and reputation of a certain party, and they wanted to kill people, but it was too late.

Maybe.... Maybe Severus is the black hand, and this incident is all caused by her, I killed her, closed the case, and the black coffin will at least let me go, even if it doesn't reward me.

I am better than the dead.

Don't have any illusions, if Severos was just a pawn, it was very likely that the Six Elders would be involved in this matter.

The question is, who?

According to my flowery reasoning, the Archon must be excluded first, because he is a model of selflessness and high aspirations, and because if it were him, I would be doomed.

I hope it's McZon, Boch, or Norris, they seem to be the kind of people who are not popular in the House of Elders.

"I'm sorry, I can't provide more information, the House of Elders is deliberating on your case, but the room they are in, I can't detect it for the time being. ”

I asked, "Is Lamia okay?" ”

"Fortunately, she has calmed down, she sought the help of Jiu Nan and Le Gang, and Le Gang agreed to her." This is the first time in the history of the Black Coffin that a high-ranking member of the Blood Clan has been killed, and the matter is serious. ”

I told him everything I knew, and he said, "I'll look into it, but it's not optimistic, both Sephoros and Modi are from the Archons' faction." ”

I said, "They are traitors, spies in ambush in the camp of the consuls!" ”

"I hope so," he said. ”

The prison door opened, Le Gang appeared at the door, and when I saw him, my confidence grew, and for some reason, I thought Le Gang would help me.

Legang said, "The House of Elders asked me to interrogate you. He was followed by two other young bloods, who should be the subordinates of the rest of the giants.

I said, "It's finally here, why don't you come sooner?" ”

Le Gang replied, "The House of Elders doesn't want this matter to be known to ordinary rangers, and the fewer people involved, the better." ”

I asked, "What about the slaves and the black people?" Have you asked? ”

"They couldn't ask anything, they seemed to be very traumatized, lost their souls, and they didn't want to recall it," Le Gang said. ”

I felt a chill in my heart: "Someone erased their memory!" And... So many people! In such a short period of time, it was the work of an extremely powerful bloodline. ”

Another Bloodline said, "Le Gang, don't you notice that something is wrong? Someone is trying to cover up the truth! I looked at the photos of the scene, and someone moved the body! ”

Another Bloodline sneered, "The truth? We just need to see what we should see and hear what we should hear. ”

Suddenly Legang said to them, "Get out! ”

With a displeased expression, they said, "You want to disobey the orders of the House of Elders?" ”

"The consul is exercising his discretion in this case, and he does not want anyone to interfere with the interrogation," Legang said. ”

The two of them were helpless, my heart was getting more and more bottomless, and only me and Le Gang were left in the room.

Le Gang whispered, "It wasn't just erasing the memory, it was hitting their cranial nerves with brute willpower. Only the remains of two nobles were found at the scene, as well as the remnants of the Blood Pact Gang, is there something missing? ”

I hurriedly said: "There are some characters who are similar to the blood clan, but not much stronger than ordinary humans, they use torture and baptize themselves with blood. I killed them all, but the corpses were not weathered, and you didn't find them? ”

Le Gang shook his head with a wry smile, and he said, "As far as I know, only three bloodlines of the Van Zhuo bloodline in the black coffin can destroy the brains of many people in a short period of time - Tifeng, Maxwell, my adoptive father, and even Michael can't do it. ”

I said, "If Michael could come up with such a rigorous crime, the world would be over." ”

Both Legang and I burst out laughing, and I realized that Legang was on my side.

Le Gang said: "A large part of the strength of the blood clan can be judged according to the bloodline and age, the third generation of the blood clan is the strongest known at present, known as the flood ancestors, fortunately, these demons have been confirmed to die." The fourth generation of the Bloodline are also terrifying monsters, known as Ancient Ancestors, some of whom are still walking in the world, but they are rare. The fifth-generation bloodline is called the Noble Elder, like Tiphon, Mai Zong, and Maxwell, all of whom are fifth-generation, and they are quite normal in comparison. ”

I asked, "What about the consuls?" ”

"He has a peculiar pedigree, between the fourth and fifth generations, and if he is an enemy, he is the most tricky," Legang said. ”

When I heard him say the word "enemy," my heart trembled.

Le Gang whispered in my ear: "It couldn't be more obvious, it's the consul, he wants to cover up this case, everyone in the House of Elders can see it, but no one can stop him." ”

I was utterly desperate for my so-called flamboyant reasoning skills, and I said, "Can't they use this scandal to get him out of power?" ”

"Missouri has an important secret in the black coffin, and this is what he has to do," Legang said. And the elders were reluctant to fall out with him openly, they didn't realize the seriousness of the matter. ”

I said, "Then we'll tell them the truth how serious it is, and we'll get it." ”

Le Gang shook his head and said: "That will worsen the situation, if it is pressed, Missouri is likely to use the secret of the black coffin, no one can predict how much trouble it will cause." Missouri is looking for someone to blame, and if they do, the rest of the elders won't dig deeper. ”

I panicked and asked, "Wouldn't it be me as the scapegoat?" ”

Le Gang smiled: "No, they all know that you don't have that much power, and they also know that you won't lift a stone to shoot yourself in the foot." He took a small stone from his bosom and said, "I believe in the power of the blade, if Missouri wants to destroy your brain tissue, you should be able to resist it, this amulet is just insurance." ”

I trembled, "He.... He might hurt me too? ”

Le Gang said: "Not a possibility, but a certainty, tomorrow the House of Elders will hold a trial to question you, and tonight he will definitely act, so as to be foolproof." ”

I asked, "Won't the House of Elders be guarded?" ”

"They don't bother to do that, they only want political stability, they don't want to anger Missouri," Legang said. And you, in their eyes, are just a pawn that can be discarded. ”

I asked, "You have interrogated me for so long, will it be dangerous too?" ”

"That's the only good news, he still trusts me, especially after the death of Modi and Severos, he doesn't have any other henchmen for the time being," Legang said. He would make me a lackey, but he wouldn't let me know the truth. ”

And he said, "Show him weakness and pretend that he will succeed, or he will kill you." He is reluctant to kill you, because you are a good pawn, but anger him, and he will. ”

These words made my hands and feet cold, like pins and needles.

In the middle of the night, as Legang said, when the lights went out, Missouri himself came.

He opened the door to his cell, and at the thought of me, I was paralyzed, similar to those brainwave shocks, comparable to the Ixes sisters. He is very, very strong, almost as dangerous as Vasilissa.

He didn't hide his countenance, for he was confident that his mind could paralyze everyone but the rest of the elders into a coma.

He walked to my bed, and I felt like I was falling into the abyss of sin, and I couldn't find anything to rely on.

Missouri was silent for a moment, then said, "Do you know how much trouble you've caused me?" ”

I don't know whether to answer or not, but I can't open my mouth, so it's better not to answer.

"I may have made you drink my blood and turn you into a loyal ghoul," said Missouri, "but you have undergone many transformations and extraordinary willpower, which is inconvenient." ”

I felt as if a knife had pierced my head, and I was spasming with pain.

Missouri was performing his mind surgery and said, "Anyone should keep some private hobbies, some .... A space to relax, something he can enjoy in his busy time, isn't it? I ask myself if I have a clear conscience about the black coffin and about humanity, but you don't know how much pressure I am under, how desperate I am to see the world return to its former glory. ”

Suddenly, he was so heavy that I suspected my brain had been thrown to pieces.

"I'm a flawless man, the leader of the Bloods and the Humans, and I can't let them see me that way, but you must know that even if I don't hide it, they can't do anything to me," Missouri said. I was just.... It's just a bit of a cleanliness fetish, and I value my reputation very much, and you'll understand me, right? Tiny humans? ”

At this point, the stone that Legang had given me penetrated my clothes and into my veins, and I was able to regain a little sobriety, and it felt strangely strange, as if I had been replaced, and that Missouri was tormenting a false soul and not mine.

Missouri said, "Ah, good, done." You will not remember any of the case, you will not know anything, you have guarded my high reputation, and for this I must thank you, Fishbone Longinus. ”

I accidentally said, "No thanks. ”

Missouri's expression froze, and he asked, "Why don't you thank you?" ”

I noticed that he seemed to have pierced my disguise, and I was horrified, saying, "That.... I completely forgot what just happened? Dude, who are you? What's your last name? How are your mother? ”

Missouri's eyes lit red, and I felt as if I was in a small secret room full of demons and monsters.

At this moment, suddenly the alarm sounded, and Missouri snorted, covering his face, and disappeared in an instant.

"Are you okay?" ”

I panted and said, "Little angel, thanks to you, I finally saved my life." ”
