Another early morning.

Jowood District, Cathedral of the Holy Winds.

"Did you find anything?"

An old man with a black soft fur and a serious face looked at the substitute in front of him and asked in a deep voice.

"Your Excellency, Archbishop."

The deacon of the substitute punisher below stroked his right hand to his chest and said in a low voice, "I'm very sorry, but the spirits in Kaping's body have all disappeared, including the remaining spirits in the villa, so we have no way of knowing what happened last night." ”

"Are you prepared?"

The old man frowned slightly, but quickly stretched out.

No clue is the biggest clue in itself.

This means that the assassination of Kapin by the perpetrators was by no means a temporary initiative, but a long-planned plan.

And judging from the fact that the other party can easily destroy the soul after killing someone, and even provocatively hang the corpse of the Kaping person on the street lamp at the door without worrying about being discovered, the one who did it is undoubtedly a medium-level extraordinary person who is full of confidence in his own strength.

But.

Why would such a character target Caping as a trafficker?

Could it be that the other party just drew a knife to help because he was not used to seeing Kapin's atrocities?

It's impossible to think about.

And this means that there must be a bigger secret hidden behind this Kaping!

A gleam flashed in the old man's silver eyes, obviously extremely sure of his judgment and guess.

"Go look it up."

The old man immediately ordered, "It doesn't matter if you can't find the murderer, go and find out what secrets are hidden behind Kaping." As long as you know this, you will also know the murderer's motive. ”

"Yes, Your Excellency."

The deacon of the punisher bowed his head respectfully, and did not have any dissatisfaction with the old man's orders.

Because this old man is none other than the Archbishop of the Storm Church in the diocese of Beckland, Ace Snake, the Singer of God!

……

In a luxury villa in the West District, two figures stand opposite each other.

"Gerwin, what the hell is going on?"

The question was asked by a man with a rectangular face, a white hair cover, two slightly upturned beards at the end of his mouth, and thick eyebrows, which resembled the characters on playing cards.

He was dressed in a tuxedo with a big coat and extremely long toes, and his dress was out of touch with the current era, as if he were living in the last century.

And if anyone knows these two men, they will be surprised to find that he is Grove Augustus, Prince of Sunia.

But this is the man who should have died a hundred years ago!

In front of him was a handsome middle-aged man with a pale face and a straight dress.

It is also Gervin in the mouth of Grove Augustus, whose full name is Gervin Augustus.

There is no doubt that he is a member of the royal family.

"It was a werewolf and two wraiths who killed Kaping."

Glvin Augustus whispered, "The werewolf took the contents of the chamber, but luckily Capin didn't know much about it, and although I don't know how much he knew, it must be very limited. ”

"Other than that, all the spirits in Kapin are gone. But as if the murderer was provoking, he did not clean up the nearby spirits. Although these spirits do not know much, they can at least give us an idea of what is happening. ”

"But I also eliminated all the spirits at the scene afterwards, and those who substituted punishment will not find anything."

"Werewolves and ghosts? The Rose School? ”

Grove Augustus murmured in a low voice.

"Werewolves from Sequence 7, and two Sequence 5 Wraiths? If he has this strength, he can indeed easily deal with Kapin and the guards around him. ”

"No!"

Gherwin Augustus said in a deep voice, "It was the werewolf who did it, but I suspect that it was only a person wearing a werewolf costume, and its strength was at least above Sequence 5. ”

"It's just that the other party has never shown the ability to prove its sequence from beginning to end. I can't tell which way it is. ”

"And what's the matter with you?"

Grove Augustus asked with a sudden frown.

"I ......"

Gölvin Augustus smiled wryly and lifted his sleeve to reveal the hidden wound.

At the wound, scarlet scarlet material was spreading along the wound in all directions.

"Who hurt you?"

Grove Augustus' expression changed slightly.

"A wild dog that has become a ghost."

A flash of resentment flashed in Gerwin's eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I was careless, I didn't flash." But that dog still carries some kind of curse, and even the law can't stop it from spreading, otherwise I wouldn't have asked for help. ”

"Why are you so careless?!"

Grove scolded, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes.

After all, this is also his best son, no matter what.

……

Beckland, Queens, inside the Hall family luxury villa.

"I see."

In the study, Count Hall said with emotion, "Women have to sell their bodies in order to survive, and even if they are good friends, they will be criticized and harassed by others, and even become the target of serial killings, which is not a kind of sorrow in our country." ”

Ember sat across from Earl Hall, but said nothing about it, and didn't say anything.

He just said calmly, "Count Hall, now that the murderer's target has been identified, I think Miss Audrey should no longer need my protection for the time being. ”

The murderer's target is clear, that is, a woman who has sold her body but has become a good person.

Audrey is obviously not among them, which also means that she will not be the target of the murderer, so naturally there is no need for protection, and Earl Hall has no reason to continue to hire him at a high price.

Instead of waiting for Earl Hall to be dismissed, Ember simply offered to offer it directly.

"Nope."

Earl Hall shook his head when he heard this, "Audrey is already an extraordinary person, and she is bound to be inevitably involved in some troubles in the mysterious world. Even without this serial murder, she still needs someone to protect her. ”

After a pause, Earl Hall suddenly smiled and said, "Of course, in addition to protection, I also hope that Ash can teach Audrey some knowledge and information about the mysterious side. After all, her mother and I really couldn't help her with this. ”

He knew that the young man in front of him didn't want to take the money for nothing, but Earl Hall was not prepared to fire Ash.

For the first time, he was not short of this little money, a hundred pounds a week, and only five thousand two hundred pounds a year.

Second, as he said.

Now that Audrey has stepped into the mysterious side, she is bound to be inadvertently involved in some dangerous troubles.

Once this happens, she needs someone to help.

At the same time, someone needs to give her a tutorial on the mystical side to avoid her getting into these troubles as much as possible.

And in Count Hall's mind, there was no more suitable person for such a role than Ember.

"Okay."

Ember thought for a moment, but didn't refuse, just nodded slightly, "If Miss Audrey doesn't mind." ”
