So what do we do next?"

In the carriage, Joey, Shrike and Lorenzo looked at each other for a moment, and then couldn't help but cover their heads because of the deadlock in the case.

No one could answer Joey's words, Lorenzo was silent, from the conversation just now, he knew that the object of the demon's revenge could be any nobleman who had hired the remnants, so the targets would be too large to count, Lorenzo would not be able to visit every nobleman, and time would not allow him to do so.

Lorenzo didn't care about the life and death of those nobles, all he cared about was the source of the inferior secret blood, but now it was like falling into a fog, and he couldn't find a clue at all.

"Can we find the Eddard couple's clients?"

"Basically, no, they're not leaders like Hughes to be taken seriously. ”

The shrike shook his head, although he controlled the lower city, he couldn't monitor everyone's lives.

"But if you magnify the whole situation, I have interesting news here, that before Hughes died, he was attacked by a group of men. ”

Lorenzo looked up slightly, motioning for the shrike to continue.

"Not all of the remnants were so submissive, and there was a part of them who rallied to try to fight against this injustice, and a large part of them did not come to Old Dunling of their own free will, but were tricked into coming here, where smugglers like Hughes promised high wages, only to be exploited endlessly. ”

Shrike continued.

"You should know the shrewdness of the merchants, and a large part of the remnants, although they are freemen, are no different from slaves, who have signed unfair contracts under deception and intimidation, and they can only work until they are completed. ”

"Those people want revenge?"

"Just trying to threaten Hughes and get him to let them go back. ”

Shrike shook his head in regret.

"But how could they possibly fight Hughes...... These interests are stacked on top of each other, and even if Hughes wants to let them go, the aristocrats after him are enough to agree, this is already a deformed ecology, just like this deformed city. ”

Lorenzo was silent, thoughts racing in his head.

"I've already released the news of these people's deaths, and if someone really has a weak heart, he'll come to us. ”

At this time, Joey said on the other side.

Lorenzo shook his head, a little sarcastic.

"No, you can see Baron Abel's attitude, in their opinion, the death of those people has nothing to do with them at all, and they don't even feel the so-called guilt......"

"It's the effect of hatred and class, Lorenzo I know your dislike for those people right now, but in fact their behavior is understandable. ”

Shrike said at this point, looking at Lorenzo, who was not ashamed of such behavior, but could understand.

"Our hatred with the Gaulnalo people has lasted too long, and the centuries-old glorious war has engraved the hatred into the blood of every Ingwig person, some of whom know that it is the hatred of their fathers, but some of whom still cannot let go of it......"

"The hatred of the fathers has continued over to these remnants, right?" Lorenzo said.

Shrike nodded, then pointed at himself.

"Sometimes it's funny that we're human, but some of our kind don't have independent thinking, they have a hatred of prejudice, and it doesn't really matter to them. ”

Lorenzo was silent, he understood what Berau meant, sometimes the world is so interesting, obviously everyone is a creature made of skeleton and blood, but they are like no soul, everyone goes forward and they go forward, everyone hates, they hate together.

With a long sigh, Lorenzo continued.

"At least we still found some clues, maybe the demon is not for revenge for a specific person, he is for the remnants as a whole, so the scope is narrowed, the demon is likely to be a remnant, plus no one will notice his characteristics......"

Lorenzo remembered when he searched for Wall's body in the hospital, the man who sealed the morgue with flames, and he had the same characteristics as a demon, a profession that no one noticed, a person who was like a "ladder".

"His profession must also be very popular, at least no matter where he appears, it will not be obtrusive. ”

"Follow these to continue the search?"

"Now that's all it takes, time will tell us everything, even if we can't find the answer to the mystery in the end, it doesn't matter, that person can't hold on, as long as your peep system doesn't go wrong, sooner or later he will be completely demonized, and then we will find out. ”

Lorenzo said lightly, then looked at Joey.

"Send me back, it doesn't look like anything will come of it today. ”

......

The day of the old Dunling did not change much, the sky was forever gray and unclear, and the afterglow of the setting burned the gray slightly red, spreading from the end of the sky to the overhead.

Pushing open the door, perhaps today's conversation was full of conflict and heaviness, Lorenzo did not feel tired.

This is the way the world is, full of contradictions, and it seems that reconciliation will never be reached, and even the gods of the evangelical church know all this, so they put the promised kingdom of heaven on hold after death.

"Oh, he's back. ”

Lorenzo looked up from a sudden voice, and looked up to see Madame vanloude sitting happily on the sofa in the drawing-room, the fire in the fireplace burning brightly, and the light of the fire reflected her cheeks like that of an old witch.

"What's wrong?"

Lorenzo asked curiously, sounding as if Madame Van Loude was waiting for her return.

"You've got a temporary mission. ”

The voice came from the other side, and Lorenzo spun around, not realizing that there was a man sitting by the door.

"Seleuc?"

Lorenzo exclaimed.

The girl nodded, she was wrapped in a thick coat and nestled on the sofa, and the corners of her skirt were exposed from the pure white skirt under the heavy clothes, the edges were delicate lace and patterns, as if she was not used to high heels, she took off her shoes, and the same white high heels were placed on the other side of the sofa.

“...... So what's going on here?"

Lorenzo took a deep breath and his voice was a little helpless and tired, it felt like you had a hard day at work and you came home with a bigger problem waiting for you.

"You've got an hour to clean up and I hope you don't disgrace the Stuart family. ”

An old but heavy voice came from behind Lorenzo, it was Yawei.

The old butler had a look of resentment, and Lorenzo always felt as if he had seen it somewhere...... Oh yes! It's Duke Phoenix, this guy has the same appearance and the same bad things as Duke Phoenix.

"Wait, what's going on?"

It was rare for Yawei to take out a gun and point it at his head without meeting, and judging from his watch, it seemed that he was in a bigger trouble.

Lorenzo's mind spun rapidly, he seemed to have missed something, and his eyes looked at Seleuc again, only to see that this cold girl was a little different from usual, and that cold face was actually a little more bloody...... Wait, this is not blood, she actually put on makeup.

Loose pale blonde hair was tied up, delicate jewelry was inserted into it, pearls and silver chains, like a platter of precious metals.

The hapless detective seemed to have guessed something, and before he could say it, Yahweh gave an answer.

"I hope this dress will fit you, of course I hope you can put up with it. ”

Saying that, Yawei threw over a piece of clothing, and his mouth looked respectful, judging from his demeanor and movements, he didn't have any good intentions.

It's a one-night dress, and judging by its supple feel and delicate handmade decorations, it can cover your rent for months.

"Not ......"

Lorenzo had never seen such a battle, and he was a little speechless for a while, but soon more squires came from behind the door and touched Lorenzo, looking very professional, even if they touched Winchester under the trench coat, their faces did not change.

More people pressed Lorenzo to a chair, combed his deer-hunted hair, and sprayed skin care on his old face, hoping to make the damn guy a little younger in a short time.

Seleuce didn't say anything, just a cold smile, and although Lorenzo knew this was her normal smile, it looked like a cold taunt now.

"Mr. Holmes, if it weren't for the lack of other candidates, I really don't want to trouble you like this. ”

Looking at Lorenzo, who was surrounded by a group, Yawei spoke unhurriedly at this time.

The thought of Seleuc's hellish smile made Lorenzo guess that he was the only one on a shortlist.

"So what the hell are you going to do?"

A strange perfume sprayed on Lorenzo, and his nose was filled with that intoxicating aroma, which Lorenzo really didn't like, and the smell interfered with his judgment.

"For an evening party, I need a dance partner. ”

Seleucus spoke slowly, with one hand on his face, watching it all with interest.

Lorenzo is not a rare look, in the time of her death with Lorenzo, she has seen all kinds of Lorenzo, but now this embarrassment is not.

"So don't you think you should consult me?"

The attendant tightened Lorenzo's trouser belt, but he didn't expect the detective to have gained a few pounds during this time.

"And what do you think, Mr. Holmes?"

Yawei said.

Lorenzo turned his head, and then gave him a blank look, the huge revolver was on his head at the moment, and these people didn't even think to ask themselves.

"Ah......h

After a little silence, Lorenzo had a somewhat humiliated will.

Yawei clapped his hands and said loudly.

"Come on, you've got an hour to dress this wild dog up like he can lead it out. ”

So the attendants stepped up their work, applying the expensive cosmetics to Lorenzo's old face, which had suffered from the cold of the old Dunling.

To be honest, Lorenzo is actually very young, because of the secret blood, all the demon hunters' physique has been strengthened, and this enhancement also carries a lifespan, theoretically the demon hunter can live to be more than two hundred years old, but because of the reason for fighting demons, the demon hunters rarely have a good death.

Countless brushes swept across his face, and in the mirror beside him, the wild dogs had been shaved off their dirty hair, revealing their grandeur.

Looking at his young self in the mirror, Lorenzo suddenly remembered that he was now in a good youth.

Lorenzo was orphaned, and he did not know his exact age, but after being adopted by the Church, the Church established a unified life for them, and the time of adoption was their birth, and the age was determined according to the doctor's estimates.

Lorenzo and other orphans were trained as witchers from the beginning, and witchers are weapons, and weapons are better not to have their own minds, so Lorenzo didn't have a name at first, just a line of numbers, and he only had something that was a name, or a codename, after being implanted with secret blood at the age of seventeen.

Pushing back the time like this, Lorenzo realized that it had been eight years since he implanted the secret blood, which meant that he was now twenty-five.

For a while, looking at himself in the mirror, Lorenzo was a little embarrassed and a little regretful.

Since the time he became a demon hunter, Lorenzo no longer has a normal life, thinking about it like this, he still feels a little sad, but Lorenzo quickly threw these thoughts into his mind, not thinking about those bad things, after all, there is no need for people to get along with themselves.

"So why are you looking for me?"

Lorenzo asked, as the squires had surrounded him, and he was now talking to himself.

"Since there is no suitable candidate, this is a regular gathering between nobles, and of course it means an alliance between large families, in which my coming-of-age ceremony is concerned. ”

Seleuc's voice came through the gaps of the attendants.

"Don't you have a month left?"

"Yes, but then I'll go to the Platinum Palace to inherit the title, and these people are trying to get on good terms with me in advance. ”

Lorenzo seemed to have something in mind.

"That's the kind of banquet you missed that day?"

Seleu didn't speak, but Lorenzo could think of her nodding with a cold little face now.

"Miss Seleucus represents the entire Stuart community, and we don't want to side in the disputes of the nobility, we just want to remain neutral...... At least temporary neutrality, being close to the nobility of any group will make the other side wary, even hostile, so the best thing to do is to keep your distance from everyone. ”

Yawei's voice sounded slowly, and it seemed that these nobles were also secretly playing.

"But there will always be some ill-intentioned people who try to get closer, and they ...... like this."

"Why don't you just find someone to attract firepower for the dead ghost?"

Lorenzo yelled, he could see what was going on.

No matter who Seleu finds to be a dance partner, it is a statement, Stuart's statement, even if she sits and eats fruit, someone will come up, rather than this, it is better to do it, bring a guy who is not a nobleman to stir up the situation, if it is not a nobleman, there is no statement, at most Seleu is close to the people.

What a calculation, Lorenzo could already think of those people wanting to tear their eyes alive.
