Gordon remembers the man, and remembers it clearly.

Even now, when he recalls that evil laughter, he can't help but feel a pinprick in his heart—

During the promotion ceremony, he was easily killed by the demon codenamed "Aleister" who operated a shadow spear through his body.

His body was dissolved by the shadows in the blink of an eye, and the intense pain did not completely dissipate until he woke up, and some of it still remained in his impression.

Gordon is indeed a little older.

The weakness caused by the failure of the promotion made Gordon slow down for several days. Nowadays, the body will also lose strength and wander from time to time, and it will not be able to work normally at all. But even so, he is still on the job. Just to do some idle work, no time off to rest at home.

When he had just woken up after the promotion ceremony, he relied on his already vague memories to clearly record the events in his dream. Because he is an inspector himself, even if they are not used as evidence, they can also be used as a reference for the team's investigative ideas.

Gordon flipped through his dream notebook to the latest ritual. Find the page in Aleiste.

This page, he rarely remembers densely.

Because the other party is also participating in the promotion ceremony for the first time, I don't understand anything.

Not only did he disdain to make up code names, but he also told all the information about his origin.

Gordon Sr. was a former soldier who became an inspector after retiring from the army. He now has a little experience in the trial of cases and the summary of intelligence - those pickpockets, gangsters, gangsters hardly tell a single truth, but their false lies are valuable in themselves.

Because even if there is a part of the lie mixed in, as long as the person is not given time, it can be seen from his instinctive tendency to make up lies what information he wants to hide and what he takes as common sense. He can hide the truth, but he can't hide the perspective from which he sees things differently from others because he knows the truth.

However, Gordon knew little about psychology, and Inspector General Edward was better at it.

Without hesitation, Gordon shared all the information he knew, including what he had seen in his dreams, with Inspector Edward.

Edward was anxious about Evas's disappearance.

He was woken up by a phone call at half past two. At that time, he was still a little angry, but when he heard that Ivas had an accident, he rushed to the Inspectorate's office without even washing up and putting on his clothes.

The intel from Gordon was just right to reassure him.

And gave Edward a very clear direction of investigation.

But he didn't expect that after carefully reading Gordon's information, Edward became obviously more anxious-

"He has been demonically possessed since he was a child. And it's also a high-IQ, a shadow demon with an independent personality. ”

Edward's brows furrowed: "It means that in addition to his teachers and parents, that shadow demon is also educating and influencing him in his mind at all times. ”

Gordon nodded: "That's right, his worldview is obviously different from that of a normal person. ”

The untrustworthiness of demons comes from this - no one knows what kind of forbidden knowledge and false common sense demons have taught them.

Edward continued: "His parents were both believers in the Nine Pillars, but he only believed in the Serpent Father...... Followers of the Nine Pillars are usually the most worshippers of the candles. This shows that he is not interested in the way of giving, and even disgusted. He most likely doesn't have a good opinion of the pastor. ”

And Ivas is a pastor.

The atmosphere between the two was silent for a moment.

Edward suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and continued to read: "He only studied in the countryside, and his education was only at the level of junior high school. And after inheriting his father's legacy, his first choice was mountaineering and rock climbing...... It is a dangerous and challenging sport. This choice implies that he has a restless heart, ignores the dangers of the outside world, and is even willing to go with pleasure.

He didn't understand the idea of the Noble Red Society at all, but he didn't resist. So there is a high probability that he was fooled in...... And he didn't know the identity of his guide.

"In other words, this Aleister is a young country man with three views that are obviously different from normal people, a cruel and rebellious personality, used as a tool by the noble Red Society, uneducated and thrill-seeking, and he also hates priests."

Edward's brows furrowed: "There is no doubt that this man named Aleister is extremely dangerous. ”

He was very clearly aware that the suddenly missing Aihuas was probably really in danger this time.

Their adoptive father, James, had just disappeared, and now Ivas had disappeared again. And they don't seem to be in a very good situation, but there is nothing they can do about it......

A thought flashed through his mind: fortunately, Yulia was taken to the palace by Princess Isabel.

I hope that Her Royal Highness the princess can stabilize her emotions. Yulia and Ivus have always had a good relationship, even better than with her adoptive father, James, and with Edward himself.

But I'm afraid it won't work.

…… Because it seems that Princess Isabel also has a good relationship with Ivus. Maybe Yulia didn't have the means to know about it, but Princess Isabel must have known about it immediately. If she knew, Yulia should know too.

If Yulia knew that Aivath was missing, and that he had been captured by an extremely dangerous person...... I'm afraid that my emotions will go straight out of control, and the illusion in my body will burst out. It's better not to tell her about it.

If the identity of the Phantom Egg is discovered, then Yulia will also be in danger......

But soon Edward suddenly realizes that Yulia is no longer the Phantom Egg.

It had been the night before, and the old butler Oswald had told him the news before he had left. Although it was difficult to understand this, Edward was also relieved.

- That's probably the only good news.

He didn't have to rush Yulia home to try to hide her identity...... And now that Oswald is not at home, Yulia is much safer in the Temple of Silver and Tin than Moriarty Manor.

I still have to go to Ivus, and I don't have time to protect and take care of Yulia.

Edward was always quiet and uncomforting. If Yulia came back crying, Edward didn't know how to comfort her.

This kind of thing has always been done by Ivus before.

Just thinking about it gave Edward a headache.

It's better that I'm missing!

Now he could only play dead in a muffled voice, and put Yulia in the Temple of Silver and Tin first. With Her Royal Highness Isabel and Master Janis in her care, at least Yulia doesn't have to worry about it.

"Damn it!"

Edward was in an unusually anxious mood.

He clenched his fists and slammed his fist into the table. The thick solid wood table suddenly cracked slightly.

Despite his cold personality, Edward valued his family very much.

At this moment, he felt an unprecedented rage, which was wrapped around his heart.

- Aleister.

- Noble Red.

I remember both names.

Edward muttered in a low voice, "I must get Ivus back."

"Wait for me...... Ewass. I'm sure I'll find you.

"The candle is above, and the silver-crowned dragon is above...... Iwass must be kept alive...... As long as I can live. ”

Edward closed his eyes and whispered a pleading.

On the other side, Ivus and Lily stood quietly in the corner in the middle of the night.

Both of them melted into the shadows, unaware of other low-level monitors passing by them.

"Young Master, do we have to wait until tomorrow to act?"

Lily's voice asked in Evas's ear, "There are more and more people under martial law. ”

It can only be said that the name Ivas still has a bit of weight now.

From two o'clock, the number of patrols on the streets is increasing at a rate that is visible to the naked eye. Griffons of all colors flew all over the sky, and those who couldn't ride griffins got on their horses and galloped through the streets of the city.

By half-past three, even the Scribes of the Laws were in the streets. They seriously investigated the backpacks of suspicious people passing by, paying special attention to all carriages that operated late at night. Every inn was being raided, and knights in armor burst into the dens of various organizations in the middle of the night, accompanied by solemn-looking lawyers.

It's clear that things are gradually being taken over by people from above.

It's 4:50 a.m., and the streets are brightly lit.

In the last ten minutes, Ivas had seen more than one white griffon fly through the sky.

It's still night, and the shadow-fiend's ability to shield is incomprehensible to these low-level overseers and lawyers. Only these white griffons could sense that something was wrong with the shadows. So whenever the white griffons flew by, they had to hide for a while.

"Can't wait."

Ivas simply replied: "If they communicate calmly tomorrow, the two sides will definitely know that something is wrong."

"The fire isn't burning enough right now – we're going to have to go and add some more fuel to them."

"Who to start with?"

"Lawyer York, of course."

Ivus narrowed his eyes slightly, and said softly, "Let's go and avenge Sherlock first."

"This wave of griffons is gone, rush!"

The second chapter is only 2,000 words, I'll make up some more words and send it again!

So the second one is still a little later -

(End of chapter)
