A huge church, empty at this time, with only one person praying.

Suddenly, a priest walked in.

"Patriarch, last night's incident has been investigated."

"Last night was Operation Crow... The scene has been investigated, the countess survived, and their daughter was rescued by unknown persons. ”

"Okay, let's leave these things alone, since someone has done it for us."

"There's no other news."

"No trace of Elder Vasily has been found."

"Rostov has gone into Bush Alley."

Everything is being reported.

"I see."

After hearing these things, he continued to pray, and the subtext was that the other party could go.

The priest wanted to speak again and again, but in the end he couldn't help but say: "His Majesty the Tsar uses stone masks to create evil creatures, do we really care?" ”

"And there are many signs that His Majesty the Tsar is cooperating with the devil below."

"Leave him alone for now, at least for now, he's still useful, everything is under control."

"Don't forget our paradise."

The priest bowed his head and said, "Yes, Patriarch. ”

Then the priest left.

"The Vatican probably can't help it."

"It's not the time yet."

"The parties haven't appeared yet..."

......

The next day, the events of last night were spread everywhere, all kinds of folk versions, adapted into all kinds of stories. But no matter what, the people who attended the literary salon last night had mixed feelings, part fear, part anger.

In the tavern, Klaus held the letter in his hand and had mixed feelings.

This happened after they left.

Andrei was also angry.

Hammered the table and said: "I must find the murderer, and I swear by my reputation to solve the case 100%. ”

The surrounding people were drinking wine and chatting: "Hey, why did the table suddenly shook." ”

"You damn it, don't shake your legs."

"I'm wronged, and I don't have such a big movement when I shake my legs."

None of the others, including Klaus, noticed anything was wrong.

Only the corners of Jost's mouth twitched, and then he said: "Okay, Andrey, you go investigate this matter first, and then inform us if there is any situation." ”

"Okay, then I'll leave first." With that, Andrei left the tavern.

Jost ordered a glass of wine for him to drink, and was disgusted by it.

Calling Klaus away, he said, "Trust Andre, his abilities are well suited to investigate this matter." ”

Klaus looked back: "Hey, Andre went to investigate?" ”

"When did you go?"

"But it's a good fit for him to go."

Jost: .......

Then the two went to the Mo Conservatory of Music and handed the invitation to the person in charge of the piano competition.

The person in charge was very surprised and said, "You are from yesterday..."

"It's a pity... Earl he..."

"Very much looking forward to... Good luck. ”

"It's like dancing dialogue while playing a game." Andrei couldn't help but complain.

Jost was taken aback: "Why are you here, didn't you go to investigate?" ”

"I came because I had a very unusual thing."

"I walked down a street near the Earl's building and heard from a nearby vendor."

"A candy in the shape of a man suddenly appeared at the door of a candy store called Kida."

"So what's weird?"

"The weird thing is, it's really big! Super big! It's as big as a real person! ”

"And it's really candy, especially hard hard candy, I broke it off and flew so hard."

As he spoke, Andrei took out the small green candy in his hand.

"It's so hard that I can't even break my fingers, so I broke a tooth and came down, and I used all my strength."

Jost suddenly envied his ability a little: "The boss didn't beat you?" ”

"The strangest part is here, this statue was not brought by the boss, but suddenly appeared in the morning."

Jost held the little white candy in his hand and asked, "How do you know it's candy?" ”

Andre said: "Of course I have eaten it, you can also taste it." ”

Jost suddenly felt a little disgusted with the candy in his hand.

At this time, Klaus saw what Jost was holding and asked, "What is this?" ”

Jost: ......

Andre:......

Jost briefly explained to Klaus.

Klaus picked up the candy and looked at it closely.

"It's, it could be a human tooth."

Jost said: "Yes, Andre said that he directly pulled out the teeth of the candy man. ”

Klaus took a closer look again: "No, it could be a real person's teeth." ”

"Look."

Then he put his teeth on the floor, and then a stand-in appeared, smashing the book in his hand straight down.

I saw that the hard candy cracked all at once.

Klaus casually caught the smashed tooth.

Holding it in his hand, he gently pushed away the candy layer that had cracked outside: "If you want to use the attack of the stand-in, this candy layer is still easy to break." You see. ”

The candy then peeled open, revealing cracked teeth.

"It's really human teeth!"

"Bah, blah, blah." Andrei remembered that he had just tasted the candy.

Klaus took the tooth and threw it and caught it: "This is a stand-in attack, and the other party used a stand-in attack to wrap a person in candy." ”

"It happened to be this morning, which happened last night," Joust said. ”

Klaus replied, "Well, let's go and see tonight, whoever is in there can't die anymore." ”

"Gross." Hearing that it was a dead man's teeth, Andrei vomited again.

Jost said, "Well, let's go and see again in the evening, be careful to break the candy outside, and see who it is, we should find some clues." ”

"It shouldn't be the Earl, the Earl's body has been seen by many people, and their missing daughter is not as big as you say. Anyway, let's take a look. ”

.......

"Silence missed, it seems to have turned into a candy statue in a candy store, you say it's funny."

"Hahahahaha." One of them let out an extremely loud laugh, as if it were the funniest thing in the world.

"Candyman." He burst into tears of laughter.

None of the others spoke.

At this time, a dark shadow leaning in the corner of the wall spoke: "You go and bring him back, don't do something that shouldn't be done." ”

The laughing man put away his smile slightly: "My lord, I know how to measure. ”

Then he left the room.

The others also dispersed.

The 'crows' and 'swallows' flew out of the square, towards all corners of the city, and no one noticed them.

In one of the corners, a very important piano competition is about to take place.

Pianists from all over the world who received invitations came to the city.
