Chapter 106: Tris
In the sewers, an illusory swarm of bats flew out, and along with the swarm of bats came a straight figure.
He came to the side of the Tasok River, and in the crimson moonlight, his red eyes seemed to merge with the moon.
Outwardly, he was a lonely man, except that he had the stench of sewers and the smell of rotting corpses.
He grasped a golden strip with his long, pointed fingernails.
In an instant, a little light appeared on his body, which cleared the smell from his body and burned the rat carcass stained on his body.
He stood by the Tasok River, as if looking for something.
After more than ten seconds or so, two figures appeared behind him, and the figure carrying the suitcase asked, "Mr. Xiao, where is that detective?" ”
"Jumping into the river, he should have a magical object that can move underwater, we have lost track of him." The man known as Xiao looked in several directions on the river with his gaze, and seemed to find nothing.
"This detective has a lot of secrets, maybe he has something to do with the person we have been investigating, and he should be taken care of." The figure carrying the suitcase also looked at the water and said expressionlessly.
"I know."
The man known as Xiao flew across the river with illusory bat wings sticking out from his back.
……
Inside a hotel in the Joe Wood area.
As the night deepened, Lewis roughly calculated the time, and tomorrow afternoon it was time for the tarot meeting to be held again, and he might be going to meet Crane's upcoming trumpet "World".
"Well, at tomorrow's meeting, I can sell the news of 'Zarathu,' and I need a large sum of cash, and with all this knowledge I know, two thousand pounds is a very reasonable price.
My role as 'Lucky' is going well, and I need to find the recipe for the potion of the Priest of Calamity as soon as possible and start looking for the potion materials. ”
Suddenly, Lewis heard footsteps and the sound of people talking, at least two hundred meters away from him, but as a transcendent, he could hear it very clearly.
"Don't let him run away, or our plans will be ruined!"
"Damn thief, let me find you, I must have skinned you!"
Sitting by the window, Lewis looked out of the direction in which the thief had fled, unfortunately, in the direction he was.
The thief's face was not clearly visible, but Lewis's inspiration gave him feedback that "this is an acquaintance".
"There are thieves among my acquaintances? Who will it be? ”
Lewis didn't want to be involved in the trouble, so he turned off the gas lamp, lay down and went to bed.
In the darkness, an inconspicuous figure climbed up to the second floor, and her figure was swift, jumping directly into Lewis's room through the window.
She had a dagger in her hand and rested it on Lewis's shoulder in the dark.
"Don't make a noise, I ......"
She was only halfway through her voice when she saw the man lying on the bed move, and before she could even react, she was choked by the neck and pressed to the floor.
Her body was tightly locked by the other party, which made her swing the dagger hard, but her wrist was unable to make a large movement at all, and the only means of attack was easily blocked.
Unfortunately, he met a martial arts master whose physical fitness far exceeded that of ordinary people, and in just one face, she, the transcendent was folded in the hands of the other party.
"Mr. Lewis!" In the darkness, the woman cried out in surprise, her voice not loud enough for Lewis to hear.
"Tsk......" Lewis frowned, no wonder the inspiration gave him special feedback in the first place, it turned out to be Cherie, the dancer, who was still in Beckland.
"Why don't you go back to Tingen?" Lewis asked, snatching the dagger from Cherry's hand, letting go of his hand slightly.
"I ...... It is important to investigate some of the things that may be related to human trafficking in Tingen! Cherie looked at Lewis, her gaze subconsciously sideways, avoiding Lewis's gaze.
"Investigate something? You should have been caught in your Sequence Nine person, right, and Triss is here, and she's helping you in secret? Lewis suddenly remembered the witch and asked coldly.
"You ......" Cherie frowned, and as soon as her words came to her lips, she turned her head away again and whispered, "You seem to know everything, and if you hadn't broken Triss's ritual, those damned people would have died long ago." ”
"What about those who don't deserve to die? Do you know Triss? It was Triss who created the Alfalfa tragedy with her own hands. Lewis let go of Chery, he went to the window, closed the blinds, and gave Cherie a look to hide.
After about ten seconds, there was a knock on the door, and a female clerk asked:
"Sir, may I ask what is going on in the room?"
Lewis knew that the people who were tracking Cherie had been found, and if he had made the clerk suspicious, more might follow.
Taking off his coat, Lewis opened the door, he looked at the clerk with a smile, and said, "It's nothing, it's just that the quilt in the room smells a little musty, is it convenient for me to change it?" ”
"Of course." The clerk poked his eyes into the room and found nothing out of the ordinary.
Lewis closed the door, and after a while, when the clerk brought in the new quilt, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked into the darkness behind the door.
In that position, a female figure in a black cloak appeared, and she asked, "You say?" The alfalfa tragedy was created by Miss Triss, Miss Triss didn't need to create those meaningless things, I have seen that case, the murderer was a man. ”
Lewis flicked a coin, which landed on the palm of his hand, and he saw the side of the king's head.
When the diviner told him that he could talk, he lowered his voice and asked, "Do you know the follow-up to the 'Assassin'?" ”
"I don't know." Triss shook her head and replied.
"The Assassin Path, which can also be called the Witch Path, Sequence 9 'Assassin', Sequence 8 'Instigator', Sequence 7 'Witch'......" Lewis explained indifferently, quietly waiting for Cherie to ask him a question.
Cherry's good-looking brows furrowed, she seemed to have found the point, showed a tangled look, and asked, "You say...... Sequence Seven is a witch? What happens if a man drinks a 'witch' potion? ”
"Of course, to become a woman, and to be a beautiful woman. Triss used to be a real male, but after drinking a potion, she became a real witch. Lewis chuckled into the corners of his mouth, as if mocking Cherry's ignorance.
"Miss Triss, she used to be a male? Is she the 'abettor' Tris? The murderer who caused the 'Alfalfa' tragedy? Cherry's pupils shrank suddenly, and her tone was full of disbelief, muttering to herself.
