Chapter 167: A Secret Gathering
On Saturday morning, Crane, who had just made himself a breakfast full of childhood memories, was about to finish when he heard the doorbell ring, and the jingling sound kept echoing.
Crane took off his napkin, wiped his hands, and walked to the door.
When I opened the door, I saw a middle-aged and elderly gentleman with gray sideburns, a thin face, and an outstanding temperament.
That's a private investigator who can get an invitation from the police. Stanton.
He smiled and explained his intention to find Crane's cooperation.
"Cooperation?" Crane didn't hide his consternation.
Grand Detective Isenger clicked on his black cane and replied in a deep voice:
"Find out who has recently been a serial killer."
"The police have already given a reward, 4,000 pounds."
£4,000......
Roman, who didn't know that the bounty of the "demon dog" had doubled from the original history due to his own reasons, was having breakfast with Arya and Mr. Downton.
As half of the host, Roman invited Mr. Downton to enjoy Rune's authentic, Fenerport noodles~
There are also Roman's favorite ones, Beckland's authentic ones, Dickie's pies......
In short, several people were very satisfied.
Just as Roman was about to start today's wool picking, ah no, it was a great cause of study, when he suddenly felt that his shoulder was tapped.
Roman's hairs stood on end, and he felt something more in his right hand.
Before Roman could react to meet the enemy, the surrounding anomalies disappeared in an instant, and Roman saw that there was an extra letter in his hand......
Discreetly discreetly opened it, it was found that it was sent by Yin Millie, informing her that she would arrive in Beckland in a few days.
So, Miss Cecina just now?
This is the first time that Ms. Cesina has delivered a letter to herself when someone is nearby, is it so terrifying?
Yoon Millie mentioned Hannah in the letter, saying that it was inconvenient for her to write to herself recently, so that she should not worry too much, she joined a lady's staff, and she is doing well.
Although Yin Millie herself is just a "gravedigger", she is also relatively good at fighting, and she doesn't have to worry too much about the safety on the road.
Nowadays, it is rare to encounter pirate ships on safe routes.
As the area where the ironclad ships are trained continues to expand, the range of pirates along the coast of Rune, in the offshore area, is getting smaller and smaller.
In particular, during a training voyage, he ran into a well-known pirate regiment, and the captain's bounty was 2,700 pounds, which was a well-known medium-sized pirate regiment in the Western Sunian Sea.
The result was extremely swift, and the speed and firepower of the ironclad made the pirates fearful.
Fame has slowly spread from a small area in the Sunia Sea to the entire five seas.
Now it's a symbolic, declared battle.
So the nearest safe voyage is really safe, and on the ship, although Yin Millie looks a little thin, but the real strength is definitely more than that of a well-trained adult male, and with extraordinary ability, Roman is still more assured.
However, after Mr Downton's commission is over, Roman plans to head to Port Priety, where he awaits his team-mates.
At night, the south area of the bridge, Yuejihua Street, Harvest Church.
Relying on his own specialness, Crane maintained his sobriety and sanity, and walked out of the lowest world of the psyche of Father Utravsky, who was as illusory as a dream.
Behind him, the corpse was wrapped in red, the flames were blazing, and the world was falling apart inch by inch.
"The Pyroman" and "The Magician" are a wonderful match.
Crane had barely had time to sigh when he found himself back in reality, and saw the strange candle in his hand, its pitch-black wick and pale flame.
Father Utravsky, who had been standing opposite, was sitting in the chair in the first row, with his back bent forward, his head buried, his hands clasped tightly on his temples.
He looked up at Crane, his eyes filled with tears, but his eyes were sentimental, joyful, and clear.
At this moment, Crane seemed to see a newborn baby.
The corners of Utravsky's mouth hooked up a little, and he smiled kindly:
"You're much better than I expected."
"No, it's just because I know enough in advance and prepare accordingly, and in the past, not only did you not know what your opponent was good at, but you were also weakened a lot."
"If I were to fight you like this in the real world, all I should be thinking about was how to escape."
Crane replied calmly.
Then, he unconsciously said:
"What's more, I didn't expect you to be weakened so well, and the 'Dawn Knight' in my impression is much more powerful than you."
After speaking, he reacted to what he had said, and coughed dryly:
"I'm sorry, Father." As he spoke, he quietly took off the dark red glove on his left hand.
"It's okay, thank you, my friend."
Roman didn't know that he had been used by Mr. Fool to taunt Mr. Father Utrawski, who was accompanying Hilde. Mr. Downton went to a secret party in Queens.
When Roman heard the news of this meeting, his first reaction was to refuse, since the divination had been in danger recently, it was only right to stay at home honestly.
But Mr. Downton's two reasons convinced Roman.
First, this kind of thing is fate, it does not mean that you can avoid it by evading, since it is certain that you will face danger in the next few days, blindly delaying and avoiding it will only delay or even aggravate the danger.
Mr. Downton inadvertently revealed that "the 'astrologer' rule is not to blindly believe in astrology, but to fear fate." ”
Second, this time I went to Queens, where the big aristocrats and the top rich lived, and the security force must be very strong, if there is really danger over there, it is relatively controllable.
Roman felt that there was some truth.
Moreover, because of the serial killings, and the fact that the Aurora Club claimed to be responsible for the assassination of Bekron, the ambassador of Antis to Ruen, the rumors have been very tight recently, and there has been no decent extraordinary gathering for a long time.
This secret meeting, Mr. Downton, also came across in the newspaper today.
When Roman first heard about Queens, he thought it was a party organized by Mr. A, but after asking Mr. Downton, he found out that it was not.
On the one hand, Mr. A should still be in the limelight now, after all, it was the assassination of Ambassador Intis before, and it was the real creator who wanted to come, and the three major churches and the Rune military were extremely strict in tracking down the Aurora Society, and they should not come forward in a short time.
Moreover, Mr. Downton is an Abraham who has a deep hatred for the Aurora Society, and should not think of participating in the extraordinary gathering they have organized.
The party was organized by an extraordinary person with the title of "Duke", and it was circulated in a small area in Beckland, and the participants were introduced by acquaintances, and it was a relatively niche and high-end party. (Note 1)
Mr. Downton suspected that there were real nobles or children of nobility in the party.
The party that did not appear in the original book was also a little curious, but it did not agree with Mr. Downton's high-end.
In the extraordinary world, whether the party is high-end or not depends on the sequence and strength of the participants, and does not depend on whether he has a noble status.
Moreover, if it is really high-end, there are noble gentlemen or ladies participating in and organizing, then it is a "justice" lady
Identity, how can you not know it?
The young lady of the "Justice" family is a real nobleman, and there are not many ladies in the whole Rune who are more noble than her. Moreover, when Roman heard the title of "Duke", his first reaction was, this is not very lucky...
It doesn't sound like a real nobleman, at most a young nobleman, or a descendant of a wealthy man,
Deliberately using such a title to divert the attention of others.
In Roman's secret complaint, he and Mr. Downton came to Beckland Queens.
