Chapter 83: The Third Possibility
Lewis naturally has little interest in what will happen in ten years, the profession of private detective will not be too long, and when he gets the seal 0-08, he may break away from Beckland and try to find Mandy.
In addition, in another twenty years, the end will come, and at that time, the true God will be all ants.
Back at the detective agency, Lewis hung his top hat and coat on a hanger, and he drank his brewed black tea, waiting for business to come to his door.
When the sun turned yellow, Detective Issinger's assistant delivered the information he needed.
Lewis, who already knew the truth, didn't have much interest in these materials, and the "demon" ability of Sequence 6 was very powerful, more than one level stronger than the "Serial Killer" of Sequence 7.
What's more, the "demons" have the ability to predict dangers, and if you don't prepare in advance, you won't be able to catch them at all.
Of course, even if he found it, Lewis didn't have the ability to defeat that demon dog unscathed, not to mention that there was a higher-ranking mastermind behind that demon dog.
"Whether it's for my own safety or for my own plans, I shouldn't be too involved in this case." Lewis sighed, and he estimated the time, and Dunn. Smith's death should have been closer.
It's just that the lucky charm I gave to the other party still shows no signs of use, which shows that everything hasn't started yet.
Looking at his pocket watch, Lewis had already decided that it was time to go to the Eros Center tonight, and by the way, he had a pleasant chat with Miss Tiffana, and did something interesting.
……
In the Lapel cemetery at night, the bronzed Azik stood in front of Klein's tomb with a bouquet of white flowers, and did not speak for a long time, and finally sighed and said to himself:
"I'm sorry, I'm ten minutes late.
But I already know who it is, as Lewis once described......"
He stooped down the bouquet and turned away from the cemetery, and also from Tingen, but did not take the letter he had given to Klein.
The crimson moonlight shines here, with an indescribable silence and coldness.
Suddenly, the stone slab that sealed the tomb was flipped over, and a slightly pale hand came out of the dirt.
Pushing open the lid of the coffin with the symbol of the cross, Crane sat up in shock, staring blankly around, his memory still fixed on the moment when his chest was pierced by the pale palm.
Since then, it has been as if he had been in a dreamless deep sleep.
Tearing open the clothes on his chest, he could see that a hole was slowly healing, but this time it was much slower than the first resurrection.
Rummaging through his pocket, Crane found a silver ring with intricate patterns, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, the believers of the goddess of the night do not support cremation, and if they are cremated, they don't know if they can be resurrected."
Using divination, he came to Dunn. In front of Smith's grave, I saw the standard epitaph written on the tombstone:
"True Guardians;
The most trusted companion;
Captain forever. ”
Captain...... Klein shouted silently, his vision blurred again, and suddenly he saw the captain turn his head sideways, and said in a relaxed tone:
"We saved Tingen."
"Captain, it turns out that you already knew the end of the day.
That's when they said to me, let me say hello to Miss Daly for you.
That's why you'll give me that lucky charm, and let me thank the owner of the charm on your behalf.
It's just that you didn't think that maybe a little subtle change would buy us a few minutes to win the Templars to come and keep us alive. ”
Crane muttered for a moment, then took off his top hat and bowed deeply to the tombstone.
"I don't know what I'm now, maybe I'm just an evil spirit who crawled out of hell and wants revenge......
As he spoke, Crane's tears rolled down his face, and he choked and shouted:
"Captain,...... We can't bear you! ”
Feeling the cold wind blowing, Crane wiped his eyes and regained his silence.
He found a nearby hidden place and walked four steps backwards into the gray mist.
Sitting down in the place belonging to the "fool", with a yellow-brown parchment and pen in front of him, he wrote down the divination sentence after a little thought:
"The one who killed me."
He recited in silence seven times, then leaned back in his chair and, with the help of meditation, entered the dream.
In a gray world, a picture emerged:
A brand new pair of leather boots, a slightly pale hand.
As his gaze gradually moved up, Crane saw a middle-aged man with short dark blonde hair.
He was wearing a long black double-breasted gown, visibly blind in one eye, his eyes were dark blue and almost black, and his facial features were like carvings.
The picture shattered, and Klein quickly confirmed the identity of the murderer:
The murderer was Ince. Zangwill!
The archbishop who defected to the Church of the Night Goddess with the seal 0-08, and the "janitor" who failed to be promoted.
Suddenly, Klein figured out a lot of things:
"Ince. Zangwill's ultimate goal is to get the ashes of St. Selena, a Sage, and the ashes correspond to Sequence 4 or Sequence 3.
After the death of the transcendent, the transcendent properties do not disappear, and the remaining transcendent traits are gathered together, which is slightly equivalent to a potion without auxiliary materials.
That is to say, Ince. Zangwill's purpose is to be promoted, he is the sequence five of the 'Grim Reaper' path, and wants to use the ashes of St. Selena to promote the sequence four of the 'Sleepless' path.
And the skull of Mr. Azik's child should be a special material to be used in the promotion ceremony. ”
Thinking about these things, Crane took out the spiritual, unused lucky charm again.
"The person who sent the spell had long known that Neil Sr. and Captain Dunn would die, and if it wasn't for the fatal mistake the captain made before the battle, maybe it would have really changed his fate.
It's just that if such a powerful transcendent person wants to rewrite his fate, why not use a more direct way, but send two inconsequential rings instead? ”
After pondering for a moment, he wrote down the divination sentence again:
"The owner of the Lucky Charm."
After meditating seven times, Klein leaned back in his high-backed chair and meditated, and was able to enter the dream.
In front of me was a gray scene, and in that gray scene, countless points of light gathered together, trying to turn into a picture.
However, halfway through the picture, the light shattered, and he woke up from his sleep.
"Can't tell!"
Klein tapped the bronze tabletop, contemplating all possibilities:
"The space above the gray mist can help me eliminate the interference of divination, and I can even get a brief glimpse of what seems to be a true god through divination.
Now, this result seems to tell me that the other party has an extremely strong anti-divination ability, even close to the true god level.
Even if you take a step back, the opponent's person will inevitably be far superior to Ince. Zangwill and the Seal 0-08.
Or, the charm was sent to Tingen as soon as it was made, and the owner of the ring did not wear it for a long time, which led to insufficient divination conditions. ”
In an instant, Crane also thought of a third possibility: this time, the space above the gray fog did not help him eliminate interference.
It's just that the third possibility was quickly forgotten by Klein after only one thought, which means that the gray mist space has its own consciousness remaining, which is too unbelievable.
