Chapter 31: Sequence 7

Sean once again felt a scrutinizing gaze from the shadows, and under the tension in his heart, his whole body was unconsciously tense, and his hairs stood up.

Squeak!

At this moment, that gloomy gaze suddenly disappeared, and the circular holy door slowly opened, revealing a straight passage.

"Go inside, at the end of the road is the headquarters of our Lightseeker."

Martin Oliver seemed to see something from Sean's tense expression, and chuckled: "Although these passages are very secret, it is impossible for the church not to arrange personnel to guard them, these personnel are also official members of the Holy Light, but they do not belong to the transcendent team, but are members of the Secret Seminar, and their daily job is to guard the passage and the Secret Seminar. ”

"Esoteric Hall?"

"Well, the Secret Meditation Hall is a place where all kinds of documents, ancient books, and even seals are stored." Martin Oliver simply explained.

Sean didn't ask too much, knowing in his heart that he was not an official member yet, and it was already good that the other party could tell him these things in advance.

However, he still remembered the name "Secret Seminar" deeply, and decided that if he had the opportunity, he would definitely go in and have a look, and maybe find a new fragment of "Ancient Rome Travels" inside.

As he spoke, Martin Oliver had already turned away, leaving Sean alone to take a deep breath and walk through the Holy Gate.

As Martin Oliver had said, the road was unimpeded, and in the light of the kerosene lamp, he soon saw a spiraling staircase.

The staircase was not long, and after walking about a hundred steps, he saw the exit, an open door inscribed with the emblem of the original church.

He hesitated slightly, and instead of pushing it away, he tapped it gently.

The sound of "thump" startled him with an echo, but soon, he saw the door open from the outside, and a familiar face appeared in his sight.

"Captain."

Sean looked at Oscar Soren who appeared, feeling both a little surprised and a little taken for granted.

"Sean, I knew you were going to make the right choice."

Oscar Sauron seemed pleased with Sean's presence, smiling and turning sideways to signal Sean to come out.

Sean smiled shyly, walked out of the door, and looked back, only to be surprised to find that the outer door of the gate turned out to be bookshelves pushed open to both sides.

And when he came out, the bookshelf clicked with mechanical gears and slowly closed, and even the door with the emblem engraved on the bookshelf closed at the same time, and there was no gap in it.

"The person who made this bookshelf must have been a good craftsman." Sean complimented heartily.

Oscar Sauron sat down in the chair at his desk and smiled, "The objects in the Light are basically from the transcendents of the Church of Machines and Industry, and they are the best at this. ”

Sean looked around the room, there were bookshelves, desks, office chairs, sofas, etc., especially the brown wooden desk, on which in addition to various documents and work supplies, a brand-new mechanical typewriter stood out.

This is the captain's office...... Sean made a judgment in his mind, and his eyes fell on the few documents that seemed to have just been typed next to the typewriter.

"Hehe, these are three contracts, which are logistics personnel, reserve members, and exactly members, and when this operation is over, it will be decided according to your contributions."

After a pause, the corners of Oscar Soren's mouth curled slightly, revealing a strange expression: "Of course, you still have the right to choose to become a logistics staff afterwards." ”

The air fell silent for a moment.

Sean bowed slightly, and said seriously: "Captain, can you tell me what the action is now?" ”

Oscar Soren smiled and didn't rush to answer his question, but asked rhetorically, "Do you know what happened last night?" ”

Sean chuckled in his heart, and then reacted that the other party had not found out what he was doing in the bathroom, so he relaxed and wondered: "You know, I was induced by that mysterious voice, and I almost committed suicide." ”

"Yes, it's not." Oscar Soren had a hint of strangeness in his eyes, "This is just one of them, in fact, you were almost shot in the head with a gun last night. ”

Yes?

Sean was really startled, and at the same time, as if he had thought of something, he quickly took the revolver out of his pocket with a trembling twist.

"Captain, isn't this revolver ......?"

Sean's eyes already had a faint look of rage.

Last night, although he woke up before the captain came in, it was only a little early, and he didn't expect that he had already walked on the cliff.

And most importantly, why did the captain give him the murderer's pistol?

Sean looked at the captain with a calm expression in front of him, and inexplicably had a feeling that this operation was not so simple.

"That's right, this revolver is the murderer's, huh...... It should be said that it is a poor ghost controlled by the murderer. ”

Oscar Soren seemed to have thought of something interesting, and chuckled: "Douglas Andreich, a member of the Detective Exchange Association, a well-known detective, hmm...... He's the poor ghost. ”

Sean took a deep breath and said solemnly, "What about the real murderer?" ”

"Not sure." Oscar Sauron shook his head, "One can only guess that he might be a Sequence Seven Charmer." ”

Sequence 7 Charmer...... Sean silently read it a few times, and did not rush to let the captain explain what "Sequence Seven's Charmer" meant, but asked rhetorically, "Then the real murderer is solved?" ”

"No, let him escape." After a pause, a solemn look flashed in Oscar Soren's eyes, "Or, it is more likely that the other party is only the existence of a clone or a puppet, and the real body does not appear at all." ”

After speaking, Oscar Sauron seemed to think of something, looked at Sean in surprise and said, "Your composure is beyond my expectations." ”

Sean chuckled mentally, but still said without changing his face: "Captain, thank you so much, because you are often elusive, and I seem to be able to accept this kind of mysterious thing a lot." ”

Oscar Soren nodded thoughtfully: "That makes sense, and you reminded me that my method seems to be an effective way to select new players." ”

"......" Sean could only roll his eyes wildly, and secretly mourned in silence for his possible new colleagues in the future.

"Okay, this is the general thing that happened last night, although it is very simple, but in fact it is very dangerous, if it wasn't for Martin in the association to find out about the commission to investigate you in advance, and noticed Douglas who accepted the commission, I am afraid I would not have been able to make arrangements in such a timely manner, but even so, I still let this cautious guy escape."
