After nearly three days at sea, Abner arrived at Damir Harbor on Friday evening.

There were no accidents during the journey, and there was nothing worth telling except that the captain of the "Thousand Cities Splendor", Aranson Edward, recognized Abner and had a drink with him.

In the past three days, Crane, who was far away in Beckland, first bought a "hurricane axe" from Fanny at the party of the old gentleman "Eye of Wisdom" and traded it to the "sun" of Silver City;

Then, after getting the information of the ruined aristocracy provided by Miss "Justice", he investigated Pound in-depth and learned from the Baron that his true identity was a descendant of Tudor, and finally after careful consideration, Crane and Sharon blew up the entrance to the underground ruins of Williams Street.

In the same three days, although Hugh failed to find out the whereabouts of Lanrius, he accidentally discovered that there were other people who were inquiring about Lanerys's whereabouts, and it may have been because of the deliberate sale of the flaw, that person had been discovered by a member of the suspected "Aurora Society".

According to MI9, the suspected member of the Aurora Society was two meters tall, had only frequented the tavern near the docks for the past two or three months, and had a fierce temperament, was unreasonable, and had extremely violent fights, and the workers in the tavern gave him the nickname "Giant".

And the person who investigated Lanerus did not have a file in MI9, but his detective ability and counter-reconnaissance ability were very good, and he seemed to be familiar with the reaction of the official extraordinary, so Hugh tried to track him several times without success.

This is one of the reasons why Hugh judged that he was deliberately selling the flaws and wanted to fish out the members of the Aurora Society.

Looking at the two portraits in his hand, he thought about it for a while, and felt that with the arrogance of that "giant", it was estimated that he would choose to do it tonight.

Should she just take a closer look?

I wonder if the other person who inquired about the whereabouts of Lanrius was a relative of "Mr. Fool......

Thinking of this, Hugh hesitated for a moment, then sealed off his rented "safe house" with spirituality, and prayed sincerely:

"O fool who does not belong to this age;

"You are the mysterious lord above the gray mist;

"You are the king of yellow and black who rules good fortune.

"Thy faithful servant prays for thy gaze;

"Please be able to put me in touch with Mr. 'Ta'......"

……

Yes, Hugh felt that it was safer to ask Abner what he did not understand, after all, from what he said on the platform, he actually "knew" about it.

Moreover, I can also give a report to Mr. "Fool" by the way.

……

At this moment, Mr. "Fool", because he had just blown up the entrance to the underground ruins with Miss Sharon, the residual smell of gunpowder on his body was smelled by the police dogs patrolling the street, and he had to follow the police back to the police station for investigation.

Fortunately, the "confession" can be invisible, and it has not been discovered and searched by the police.

Klein looked at Jürgen, the lawyer who was helping him sign the "bail" papers, and thought to himself.

At that moment, he heard an illusory cascade of supplications, vaguely from women.

Miss "Justice"? Or Miss "Judgment"? No matter who it comes from, it should be "Lanerus" who has news, right?

But when he excused himself to go to the bathroom and walked four steps backwards to the hall of gray mist, he found that Miss "Judgment" was going to transfer to Mr. "Tower......

Seeing this, the corners of Klein's mouth couldn't help twitching, and he complained in his heart: You two won't be cooking porridge on the phone with me in the future, right?

But complaining and complaining, Klein still helped them complete the "video call" connection, after all, listening to Miss "Trial" seemed to be the right thing.

……

Damir, who had just disembarked, was feasting on the island's seafood in a restaurant, when he put a piece of sashimi in his mouth and chewed it, when a boundless gray mist suddenly filled his eyes, and then he saw the normal image of Miss "Judgment".

He immediately understood what was going on, and asked directly: "Miss 'Judgment', I don't know what you are looking for me?" ”

Although there were no outsiders present, Abner did not directly say Hugh's name, and he could trust Klein unconditionally, Hugh probably wouldn't.

"Mr. Tower, I do have something I want to ask you." Hugh was stunned, changed to the wording mode of Miss "Trial", and said politely.

"Just say it." Abner nodded.

Hugh organized the language, and told Abner about the clues he had found in the past three days, the appearance of the other party's investigation of the "Lan'aus" forces, and the reaction of the suspected Aurora Society.

Mr. "Fool", who was hidden behind the gray mist, frowned when he heard this, and felt that this matter seemed to have become complicated, whether it was the reckless response of the Aurora Society or the so-called third party, it exceeded his expectations......

Let's listen to what Mr. "Tower" has to say first...... As a real detective, his reasoning and logic skills are definitely a lot better than mine.

And at this moment, Abner was also a little surprised, and said in his heart: Another force? Who else but Klein would be looking for Lanlius by the unofficial?

However, the names of two people quickly flashed through his mind: Dali! Dunn!

It shouldn't be Ms. Dai Li, aside from the original book, although she has enough motives, she will not use such a means that is almost tempting the enemy. After all, there is a church behind her, and it is normal to find clues and arrest people directly......

Then it's Dunn...... Has his mental problems been cured? So can't wait to get revenge? It's dangerous...... "lazy" lady doesn't care?

Also, although there is not much contact, but that person's temperament is really not very reliable, and it may be normal to be "lazy" to care.

Fortunately, Dunn is also a veteran night watchman, and he is very experienced in all kinds of things, and now that there is no "0-08" interference, his judgment is actually cautious enough.

Thinking of this, Abner pondered for a moment and said to Hugh: "I have an idea about the unreasonable response that Aurora will make. ”

"What assumptions?" Hugh's glasses lit up, and he understood that Abner "knew" again.

"I'm guessing that 'Lanerwes' is not in the right state! It is likely that he was restricted by the Aurora Society. Although Abner was speculating, his tone was very certain, after all, this was the exact plot in the original book.

"Why do you say that?" Hugh thought for a moment and asked puzzled.

Klein also turned his gaze to hear what Mr. "Tower" had to say, after all, he knew that "Lanerus" was very likely to have been rewarded by the "True Creator", and it was normal for him to be in a wrong state.

"Do you remember Moreira from the Eternal Society?" Abner asked rhetorically with a smile.

Hugh seriously recalled for a moment before he said uncertainly: "Is it the person who abducted and trafficked people to Rey in the East Side?" I remember we fought with him...... By the way, after you channeled him, you found that his red and black ring was from a mysterious person in the docklands...... The man also asked him to organize a dock strike. ”

"That's right, that ring was named 'False Fury' by me and later sold to Miss 'Justice'...... The person who gave the ring to Moreira was supposed to be Lanrius. Abner nodded.

"Why did he do that?" Hugh asked, puzzled.

Abner didn't answer immediately, but instead said something else: "The strike was eventually resolved by the members of the Aurora Society...... I'm sure of that, because I happened to be there when the Aurora member issued the commission at an extraordinary gathering. ”

When Hugh heard this, he suddenly understood a little, and said thoughtfully: "Is it that Lanerus is deliberately causing trouble and wants to attract the attention of the authorities, while the Aurora Society is trying its best to help him deal with the aftermath?" But no, they weren't so cautious about dealing with the man who investigated Lanerus......"

Abner shook his head with a smile and continued, "Later, a mutated beast appeared in the sewers of Beckland, and an unknown member of the Aurora Society died because of it, and in the end, it was the Aurora Society that sent someone to clean up the beasts. ”

"You mean, the mutations of those beasts are also the work of Lanrius? He's causing chaos again? Hugh said suddenly, but then a new question arose, "Since he has played around the Aurora Society and tried to get out of the grasp of the Aurora Society, why didn't he take the opportunity to escape?" I think he's had a lot of chances. ”

Crane, who was eavesdropping behind the scenes, also nodded, this was what he had the impression that the madman of Lanerus could do, as for why he didn't run away? That madman probably has a bigger plan.

"His goal isn't just to escape from the Aurora ......Society," Abner made a similar judgment to Klein, and then changed the subject, "I saw the news of the 11th case of serial murder on the day I left Beckland...... But as far as I can guess, that's probably not the work of a real serial killer......"

It's amazing that just reading the newspaper came to a similar conclusion as I did when I personally investigated it...... But on what basis did Mr. "Tower" make his judgment? Klein thought with admiration and confusion.

Hugh, who had already been popularized by science about the "demon" ritual, instantly understood Abner's meaning: "Didn't the interval exceed three days...... I see, then, this case should also be done by Lanerus? He...... Is he trying to provoke an official investigation? What is the purpose of borrowing the hand of the official? ”

Not more than three days? What does that mean? That serial killer's habit? It seems that "Tower" and "Trial" are familiar with the murderer...... But why not catch him?

Well, Mr. "Tower" had said at the previous tarot meeting that the killer was a real "demon" and not so easy to catch...... Could it be that there is something special about the "demon"?

Just as Klein began to think about it, he heard Abner laugh and say:

"That's my guess! As for why Aurora behaved so aggressively with the investigators this time, I think it was also a trick played by Laneus. ”

Hugh also nodded, and said clearly: "He has made so many attempts before, and the people of the Aurora Society will definitely strengthen their care for him...... And he only had to take the opportunity to ask the most "devout" believers of the "Lord" to watch over him...... After all, the more 'religious' the Aurora Society's people, the more 'crazy' they are, and the easier it is to attract official investigations. ”

"Clever!" Seeing that Hugh had followed his train of thought, Abner gave him a satisfactory word of praise before asking, "As for the third-party investigator, I don't have a clue...... By the way, do you have a portrait of him? ”

"Yes!" Hugh was praised a little proudly, and when he saw this, he did not hesitate to pray to Mr. "Fool", and with his help he "realized" a portrait.

Sure enough, it's Dunn! Abner only glanced at it and confirmed his identity, after all, the face was still pinched by his own hands.

And Mr. "Fool", who was behind the gray mist, was a little dumbfounded, and muttered:

"This ...... Isn't this 'Iron Man'? ”
