Chapter 21: The Treasure Trove
After looking at them for a while, I found that they were all extremely hypocritical, and I knew that there was probably nothing to reveal, so I simply gave up; By the way, there is also that Ichiro Yamamoto, who is quite big and hangs out with naΓ―ve people like Camilla and Taron all day long, and he must have some scheme!
The spiritual power was suddenly concentrated in a small building on the top of the hill on the east side of the city; Ichiro Yamamoto wore a Japanese kimono, with a pair of clogs at his feet, and walked with small steps of "curry curry", holding a bowl of wriggling maggots in his hand, and placed it on the dining table; He sat upright, folded his hands and muttered for a while, and then bowed deeply to the food on the table and began to eat;
He used a knife to get the maggots that crawled to the edge of the bowl back into the bowl, forked up the maggots crawling on the table with a fork and ate them one by one, cut off a piece of blood-drenched raw meat on the plate and put it into his mouth to chew, and then drank a sip of bright red drink, enjoying it very much!
At this point, Jon could have concluded that the bright red was blood, and that this Yamamoto Ichiro had been completely demonized; Demonic professionals must constantly consume demonic food to maintain their sanity; Spiritual objects with magical power are very rare, so this kind of person usually eats flesh and blood and all kinds of dark and evil substances, and the accumulation of dark evil things in the body will eventually lead to the gradual loss of human nature.
In this way, it is not surprising that this Yamamoto Ichiro has the idea of punching Mira and Taron! In one of Yamamoto's secret rooms, there are dozens of crystal balls on an offering table, which are sealed with some people or souls, each of which is struggling in pain!
Although Camila is a little neurotic, after all, the essence is not bad, and she is just curious about the occult, so you still have to pay more attention to it, and don't let the two of them take their lives!
It was already the middle of the night after I got out of the Inquisition, and I fell asleep after drinking two more poisons!
In the morning, he was woken up by a "gurgling" pigeon call, and it was Dundra's pigeon squatting on his windowsill and banging on the window with its wings; Jon opened the window, and the pigeon landed on his hand, and the voice of Dundra came from the pigeon's mouth: "Jon, let's go to the prison city, Demarco is dead!" I'm waiting for you at the union. β
When the pigeon had finished his task, Jon gave him a piece of bread as a reward, and the pigeon "purr" and flew away with great pleasure!
Although, DeMarco's death was done by Jon, but he still has to go to a form with Dundra, and he can't directly admit that he did it! Get dressed, put on your favorite orange bucket hat and whistle, breathe in the earthy air of the early morning, lock the pharmacy and go out!
It seems that he is really not a good doctor, and he has not opened the door for three days, and many people have probably forgotten the pharmacy "Nanshantang".
Dundra, Jon, and Caroline stepped out of the carriage, and this time they were greeted by Kelvin, the deputy warden of TEDA Prison, a young knight; It doesn't look as rude as DeMarco.
"Superintendent Dundra, please come inside!"
Several people went directly to Demarco's office on the third floor of the prison, and the scene inside was still the same, and no one had moved; DeMarco's trousers were still not lifted, his eyes were looking up at his head and neck, and he was holding his head with both hands;
Caroline examines and confirms that DeMarco's soul is no longer there, as there is no reaction to the conjuring ritual; She guessed that someone had her soul drained alive and died!
"Scum, you deserve it!" Caroline didn't forget to curse hatefully.
It seems that this "scum" label of Demarco is certified by Caroline!
Several people originally thought that this fat pig with a meaty face was a waste of food when he lived, so naturally they would not investigate the cause of his death carefully, and after a hasty inspection, they came to a conclusion that "the person was exhausted", and nailed him to the pillar of shame of raping a female prisoner.
Dundra's pigeon flew in and sent him news that someone from the headquarters had arrived! People have come to the union.
When he returned, the people from the union headquarters were already drinking coffee in the conference room, and a stone in Dundra had finally landed, and he was always worried about what happened to the "Assassin's Notes" these days, and if it was lost in his own hands, then the responsibility would be great!
The three people from the headquarters are two men and one woman, and the leader is called Orel and is an old acquaintance of Dundra! A very thin old man, dressed in a gray coarse cloth labor shirt, with a large pair of scissors hanging from the back of his buttocks; The middle-aged young man next to him combed a punk hair, his roots were dyed yellow, his clothes were full of pockets, and there were two long revolvers at his waist; The lady on the other side wore a samurai costume with tight sleeves and a cloak behind her.
We had lunch at the Aegean Hotel, and we got to know each other a lot, and Jon learned; The three of them are the field team at the union headquarters, tasked with going out to complete the mission, the punk head is called Govend, and the cloak lady is called Samantha, and this time their mission is to bring the Assassin's Notes back to the headquarters.
In order to prevent long nights and dreams, a few people went to the treasure house on the sixth floor in the afternoon to pick up the notes, and then set off. Dundra didn't shirk either, of course he wanted to hand over the thing sooner, Dundra always felt that this thing was a hot potato.
The opening of the door of the treasury must be witnessed by at least three people; This time, in addition to the three people at headquarters, the Sail City union has Dundra, Jon and Rolfe here.
Dundra pulled out a bronze key, and Rolf pulled out a blue bead the size of a walnut; Rolf first put the somewhat worn bead into the middle of the hook claw palm, and Dundra inserted the brass key into the keyhole and turned it around a few times, and the runes on the large iron door flickered a few times before being slowly pushed away.
The inside of the treasure house is still not small, on both sides are two rows of shelves, which are full of various things, and on the opposite side is a wooden staircase leading to the top floor, which does not look very large. According to Rolf, the seventh floor was the "palm" he saw that day when he was on duty.
Dundra suddenly remembered what had happened to Jon that day and asked Orel. "Old man, last time we reported that that hand was likely to come out, what did the headquarters say?"
Orel scratched his head a little embarrassed: "Oh, did the president forget about this matter, he didn't mention it before I came!" β
"Hasn't there been any reaction lately? Let's put it there for now! It shouldn't be able to get out! β
Dundra regretted a little that he hadn't been urging this continuously, but there was nothing else he could do!
"Oh! Old man, go back and help me talk to the president more, and send a magister to reinforce the box or get some magic weapon to suppress it! β
"Okay! You can rest assured! Orel agreed.
Dundra removed a wooden chest from the side shelf and placed it on the wooden table in the center of the vault, pushing open the two buckles with his two thumbs and lifting the lid. The pages of papyrus Jon had handed in were presented to the others.
This is the confirmation process before handing over to each other.
