Chapter 107: The Vanishing Corpse

In the early morning, the warm sunlight shines through the clouds, staining the streets with a golden edge.

After breakfast, Moretti dressed in a top hat and carried a cane, and unhurriedly boarded the public carriage to rue Zotlán.

After another morning of boring study, he finally waited for the new assignment that Dunn had assigned him-

Assist in the search for the absconding Riel Bieber.

This mission was supposed to begin a few days earlier, but it was delayed for a few more days because of the delay in the departure of reinforcements from the Diocese of Beckland.

This is certainly not a simple coincidence.

All reinforcements from Beckland will be delayed because of the "plot".

A one-eyed "janitor" needs Dunn Smith to discover Riel Bieber at the right time, neither sooner nor later.

Sooner, Riel Bieber would be easily disposed of, and Dunn, who was in full state, would be difficult to be discreetly contaminated by the notes of the Antigonus family; It's too late, and the over-fortified Rare Bieber will make the "Night Watchers" unable to deal with it.

The three "Night Watchmen" who came in with reinforcements brought the seal "2-049".

It is a "living" seal that once belonged to the House of Antigonus, and as such can help the Nightwatchers locate the descendants of the House of Antigonus.

After some explanation and arrangement, Dunn took Leonard and Crane, together with three companions from Beckland's reinforcements, took the seal "2-049" and began to search for Riel Bieber.

The first stop is Riel Bieber's home.

There, through the reaction of the seal "2-049", they determined that Rare Bieber was indeed a descendant of the Antigonus family.

Then, following the guidance of the seal "2-049", they drove the carriage step by step to the dock area.

Eventually, they were able to locate Rare Bieber's hiding place – the Tyrell warehouse in the docklands.

Riggins, who had been secretly monitoring and tracking the "Night Watchmen", and his "Joker" teammates, were the first to do so at this time.

A battle of great intensity ensued between the two sides.

The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind.

As the "Yellow Sparrow", Valeera has been carefully hidden and has secretly observed the whole process.

Broadly similar to what was described in the original book.

The "clown" who was the first to rush into the warehouse was directly torn to shreds by the runaway Riel Bieber;

The "tuxedo clown" was injured and fled the scene temporarily;

Several of the "Night Watchmen" fight the monsters that Riel Bieber has turned into out of control.

Valera had been watching in spite of her, not even wavering from her goal of fleeing the scene.

The "Night Watchmen" defeated the monsters;

The monster's dying explosion threw the seal "2-049" to Crane's side;

As soon as the seal corresponding to this "Master of Secret Puppets" was released from the restrictions, it began to manipulate Crane's "Spirit Thread";

The isolated Crane made a decision on the spot, and used the "transfer ritual" to get rid of the control of the seal "2-049";

The "Tuxedo Clown" also returned at this time, and was deceived by Crane into forcing him into the control of the seal "2-049", killing him with several shots.

Valera watched from the sidelines and didn't make a move.

The "Night Watchmen" completed a simple first aid, cleaned up the scene, and drove away with the most important Antigonus family notes and seal, "2-049", leaving only Leonard, who was in better condition, to protect the scene.

At this time, Valera finally waited for the best time to make a move and quietly began to act.

Instead of trying to control Leonard guarding the door of the warehouse, she found a ventilation window on the side, sneaked in through the "split-shadow casting", and stole the body of the "tuxedo clown".

Although it may not be possible to hide the "old" angel Pales who "parasitized" Leonard, but to hide Leonard's own self-confidence, Valera still has it.

In this way, it is still necessary.

The most important thing is that this way of acting completely avoids the possibility of meeting with Crane.

This greatly reduces the likelihood of being noticed by Crane.

Leonard stood guard at the door of the warehouse for more than half an hour, waiting for the "corpse collector" Fulai and the "sleepless" Luo Yao, who came to help.

The three of them entered the warehouse together, only to find that the body of the "tuxedo clown" was actually gone!

Leonard was the one who was most shocked.

You know, if the enemy can steal the corpse quietly, then at least he can be ruthless quietly, even if he is very special and may not be fatal, but it is also a serious injury.

It's dangerous!

Leonard exchanged a few words with his teammates to explain the general situation, and then the three of them teamed up and inspected the warehouse inside and out, and found nothing other than a copy of the extraordinary properties of the "Joker".

On the carriage back to Rue Zotran, Leonard seemed to rest with his eyes closed, but in fact he asked in his heart:

"Old man, have you found any signs?"

"How many times have I told you to learn to respect the elderly." Pales's voice sounded in his head, "As for the signs...... Oh, why should I tell you? ”

"It's the rent you live in my body!" Leonard quickly replied.

The voice in his head was silent for a long time, and he replied with an incomprehensible sentence, "Very strange ability, a bit like a 'flash' ......"

"What are you talking about?"

"Hey, are you still there, old man?"

Leonard pressed hard, but received no further response.

……

Valiera continued south with the body of the "tuxedo clown", and soon left the confines of the docklands and followed the dirt road into the suburbs.

She randomly found a dense forest, swept away a small piece of fallen leaves and rotten mud, and threw the body of the "tuxedo clown" into it.

After receiving the extraordinary properties he had precipitated, a blood ball with a hint of blue, Valeera once again tossed the mud and fallen leaves, and buried him on the spot.

From beginning to end, everyone tonight didn't know that this "tuxedo clown" was called Riggins.

He was just like that, with his clown makeup in red and yellow oil paint, buried in rotten mud and fallen leaves, and he didn't even get a sketch portrait that should have been in the original book.

After disposing of the body, Valera returned to the dirt road and continued south.

With her walking speed, it wouldn't be long before dinner time for her to reach the small town of Viña on the lower Tasok River.

By tomorrow morning, she would be able to return to Beckland.

……

On the outskirts of Tingen, a detached house with a green lawn.

It has a garden full of flowers, a gray-blue roof, and a dark red chimney.

In the bedroom on the sunny side of the house, a simple notebook is spread out on the desk by the window.

“……”

"Riel. Bieber turns into a monster, and the scene gets out of control for a while. ”

"In the end, with the skillful night watchmen, the monster Bieber was solved...... Crane, who should have died, once again incomprehensibly killed the Sequence 7 Esoteric Order. ”

"Valeera, the witch who concealed her true face, stole Riggins' corpse...... Her goal is Riggins' extraordinary traits, and she will leave Tingen as soon as she succeeds. ”

"These accidents did not affect the development of the story, Dunn Smith came into contact with the notes of the Antigonus family, looked through its contents, and was covertly tainted a little!"
