The owner of the ship looked at Richard Weston for some reason, and then followed the other man's line of sight towards the bow of the boat.

I don't know when, there was a stranger in the bow of the ship, and the sailors who were cleaning the deck and sorting out the cargo around them did not notice that there was an outsider around them.

The ship's owner was shocked, his life in various countries had made him well-informed, and he had developed an eye and judgment that could help him avoid evil, and now the stranger who suddenly appeared on his ship gave him the feeling of extreme danger, and a danger that must not be provoked.

At this moment, the owner of the ship made a decision in an instant, and said to Richard Weston with a smile: "Lord Sir, it seems that you have personal matters to deal with, so I won't bother." ”

With that, he decisively greeted his men, turned and walked off his ship.

Richard Weston's actions were somewhat unexpected, for it seemed to him that the owner of the ship had asked for him, and now that he was in trouble, the owner of the ship should stand by his side and help him, and by showing that he might get his help in meeting his father, who was Chancellor of the Exchequer.

But he never thought that the owner of the ship would not even make a gesture to show assistance, and directly left him without the slightest hesitation, which made his plan to use the owner of the ship to block the people so as to give him time to escape also failed.

Although things have changed, Richard Weston still has a calm face, and looks relaxed and said: "I didn't expect the people of the Holy Blood Society to find it so quickly, it seems that the strength of the Holy Blood Society is somewhat beyond my expectations." ”

"I'm not a member of the Holy Blood Society. Leo, who deliberately gave the child a hint and followed him all the way, walked slowly up to Richard Weston and said, "What you stole is exactly what I want to buy." ”

Richard Weston smiled bitterly, he had already thought about which forces would find him before he started, and he had prepared a plan to deal with it in advance. He was confident that whether it was the Holy Blood Order, or another sect of the Lady of Grace, or the one from the Doge's Palace, he would be able to handle it and get out of here safely.

But just like the decisive decision of the ship's owner just now, the stranger who appeared in front of him was also an unexpected variable, which made all his preparations in advance useless, which made him a little uncomfortable when he liked to plan and then act.

"I'm sorry, I didn't think of that thing you wanted. Richard Weston tried to maintain the confidence he deserved, and said to Leo, who came to him, "I am willing to make reparations for this matter, and I believe that the amount of my compensation should be satisfactory to your Excellency, and the other thing is not with me now, but I can tell you that it is there." ”

"No, I know things are there. Leo gave an answer that surprised Richard Weston.

At the moment when Richard Weston was stunned, Leo struck suddenly and hit Richard Weston in the neck with a speed that was so fast that there was no shadow.

Today is definitely an unexpected day for Richard Weston, just like the decisive decision of the ship's owner just now, Leo's sudden attack is also beyond Richard Weston's expectations, because all the people he has met before, even the kind of life and death enemies, will definitely say a few words before making a move, and there will be some signs when he moves.

But Leo's shot was very sudden, and suddenly Richard Weston was hit and fainted, and he didn't understand what was going on.

Richard Weston's fainting immediately triggered the attack mechanism of the black cat on the side, and the black cat instantly swelled to the size of a black panther and flew towards Leo, and its claws also slashed at Leo's neck.

Leo, who had been prepared for a long time, also made the gesture of the Alpha Law Seal in his hand at the same time that the black cat flew over, and instantly exerted the power of the Law Seal, forming an invisible shock wave in front of him, flying directly out of the black cat in the air and landing in the water outside the boat.

After dealing with the black cat, Leo immediately lifted Richard Weston on the ground, resisted him, turned around and walked off the boat, and walked in the direction of the city.

Although the appearance of carrying a person is a bit too eye-catching, and there will definitely be a police officer to check it later, but because of the people, the shadow jump cannot be performed, so Leo has no other better way to send Richard Weston to the Holy Blood Society.

After that, as he expected, before he left the dock, four or five Frank Imperial military policemen who were in charge of the security of the dock area came forward to investigate, but these people were all under the influence of the Yaksi seal, thinking that Leo was just carrying an ordinary cargo, and quickly let Leo leave.

Once in the city, Leo boarded a cross-district steam rail car bound for a United Kingdom-controlled city, placing Richard Weston in an empty seat.

Compared to the steam railcars that go to the river terminal, which are always full of people, the steam railcars that leave are empty, for example, now the two railcars, including the driver and them, there are only seven people in total, and the four passengers are now sitting on the second floor, watching the night view of Venaya from the height of the railcar.

The driver also stared nervously at the outside of the car, small control of the speed of the steam locomotive, one hand is always on the brake beat, from his nervous performance it is not difficult to see that he is still a novice.

Just after the rail car drove out for some distance, the black cat that had been knocked into the water by Leo before changed back to its original cat form, jumped on the car in a wet manner, jumped onto the luggage rack, and stopped about two meters away from Leo, looking down on Leo, looking like it was waiting for an opportunity to rescue its owner.

Leo looked at the black cat with interest, and he found that this black cat was a very peculiar life form, the body was obviously some combination parts, but it had the spirituality that only intelligent life had in its eyes, just like the mechanical life form of the universe where the Earth Federation was located, the only difference was that the black cat had spiritual energy that mechanical life forms could not have.

At this moment, Leo suddenly thought of something, and he concentrated his spiritual energy on his forehead, activating the mark of the elegant lady on his forehead.

Although the mark is hidden, the special psionic energy fluctuations possessed by the sigil are stimulated by Leo's psionic energy and emit outward.

The black cat clearly sensed the mark of the elegant lady, and it was stunned, tilting its head, and looking at Leo in surprise, as if it were looking at something rare. Then, in a surprising and surprising move, it jumped off the luggage rack, cautiously walked to Leo's side, jumped into the chair, and then, like a house cat, climbed onto Leo's knees, curled up on Leo's lap, barked lazily, and lay motionless.

"Funny little one!" Leo smiled after seeing the meekness of the black cat because of the mark of the elegant lady, and the image of a kitten came to his mind, which was supposed to be the pet that his predecessor had fed when he was a child, so he did not suppress this affection and reached out to touch the black cat's body.

Although the speed of the rail car is not very fast, half an hour is enough time for the rail car to travel to the urban area under the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom.

Leo estimated the position, and felt that it was almost enough, so he picked up the black cat on his lap and put it on the ground, then picked up the unconscious Richard Weston, jumped off the slow-moving rail car, and before anyone could notice, walked into an alley, and walked quickly towards the entrance to the dungeon he knew.

There were no accidents along the way, perhaps because Fernando didn't expect Leo to find someone so quickly, and he didn't have time to arrange people around the dungeon to intercept Leo, so Leo came all the way to the dungeon and came to the outside of the Holy Blood Society's residence.

"I'm Leo Dodd, and I've found the man who robbed the antique shop. Leo followed Brown's method and used the microphone outside the door to inform the people in the Holy Blood Society.

After he finished speaking into the microphone, it didn't take long for him to see the door of the Holy Blood Order slowly open, and Brown led the group out of it, looking at Leo and Richard Weston with some surprise.

"Is he the bandit?" Brown asked with some suspicion because of his position, not looking at Cha Weston's appearance.

Leo ignored Brown's suspicions and asked in a deep voice, "Fernando Delo should be here, right?"

Brown didn't feel angry at Leo's ignorance, but after Leo asked, he nodded honestly and said, "Mr. Delo just arrived here, because this matter involves the Lady Grace Church, so as a believer of the Lady Grace, he took the initiative to assist us in investigating this matter. ”

"Take me to him. Leo commanded.

Brown hesitated slightly, but in the end he did not object, and after giving an order to the men beside him, he led Leo on a pilgrimage to the Blood Society.

The two of them quickly arrived in the previous conference room, then turned through a door on the wall of the conference room into another passage, and after walking for some distance, entered a small underground attic.

At this time, there were already a lot of people gathered in the attic, the high-ranking members of the Holy Blood Society, Fernando Delo, and the chief priest of the Lady of Grace Church, Doris, etc., the atmosphere here did not seem to be very good, as if there had just been a quarrel, the people of the Holy Blood Society looked very angry, and Doris and the others looked a little depressed, only Fernando was still calm as usual.

When everyone saw Brown leading Leo in, they were all stunned for a moment, and Fernando's eyes fell more on the person who was being resisted by Leo, and there was a trace of panic and surprise in his eyes.

"This is the thief you are looking for to snatch the bowl of the skull. Leo threw Richard Weston on the sofa in the room, then turned to Fernando and said, "I won the bet, take the bet!"

"Wait, isn't this person the ......" Fernando knew that he had lost after recognizing that the person who was carried by Leo was Richard Weston, but he was unwilling to admit defeat like this, he had already been out of the game before he officially started this bet, this situation made him feel extremely aggrieved, so he instinctively wanted to quibble.

Leo raised his hand to stop Fernando from speaking, and said with a blank face: "You know very well whether he is the thief or not, and you also know very well whether I have won or not, and if you are not willing to fulfill the gambling contract, I will not force it." However, I will naturally take my things, and it is not clear what drastic means will be used when the time comes. But I don't think you want to see that happen, don't you think?"

Fernando could hear Leo's obvious threatening words, and according to his character, he would never want to be threatened, but recalling all the information about Leo, coupled with Leo's previous silent entry and exit methods in and out of the Doge's Palace, made him feel that it was a terrible thing to offend such a dangerous person.

"You won. You wait a minute, and I'll go get the bets. Fernando didn't struggle any longer, nodded his head and acknowledged that Leo had won the bet, and then he prepared to leave the place, find a place to enter the elegant lady's dressing room, and take out the bets.

Although Leo knew that the ladies' dressing room was on Fernando, he didn't stop it, just stood quietly in place.

Everyone else around them was at a loss, not understanding what was going on between Leo and Fernando, but only roughly understanding that the two had made a bet, and the key to victory or defeat was to see who found the thief who committed the antique shop robbery first.

At this time, someone found that the person who was carried by Leo turned out to be the son of the Minister of Finance of the French Empire, and couldn't help but be puzzled, and some people wanted to ask Leo why, but they were dissuaded by Leo with a look of not entering.

On the other hand, Doris, the presiding priest of the Church of Lady Grace, was not interested in who the thieves were, all she needed was to free the Church of Lady Grace from these troubles, and at the moment her eyes were not on Richard Weston, but on the black cat following Leo.

With Doris's eyesight, she can naturally see the relationship between this black cat and the elegant lady, to a certain extent, this black cat can be said to be the holy relic of the elegant lady's church, and the temptation of the holy relic made her forget Leo's threat, came up, squatted in front of the black cat, and used magic to draw a series of special patterns in the air according to the church's method.

However, in the face of Doris's actions, the black cat just glanced at it coldly, then opened its mouth and yawned, and walked up to Richard Weston, lying on his chest, wagging his tail in boredom.

"Is he also a believer in the lady?" Doris judged Richard Weston's identity from the black cat's actions, and a look of surprise immediately appeared on her face.

In fact, although Doris is the presiding priest of the Graceful Lady Church, her sect is only a branch of the church, and in her eyes, the Elegant Lady Church is an underground church, and like other ancient churches on the verge of survival, they will disappear from this world at any time.

But now she found that things were not the same at all, whether it was Fernando Delo or Richard Weston, both young magnates of the French Empire, such people were devout followers of the Lady, which proved that the Lady's church was far stronger than she thought.
