Chapter 18: The Feast of Liszt's Manor
Wayne walked into the secret division, only to think that the guard at the door looked at him strangely.
What's the situation?
Could it be that his charm is so great that he crosses genders?
Wayne shook his head and hurriedly dispelled the thought, it was terrible.
Then he came to the door of the office of the Logistics and Investigation Department on the third floor, exhaled, sorted out the uniform on his body, and then pushed the door open.
"You're ...... early Forehead? ”
I saw that the huge office was empty.
"Early? It's almost nine o'clock. ”
Wayne looked at the clock on the wall and scratched his head.
But he didn't pay much attention to it, he had changed jobs several times in his previous life.
When you arrive at a new company, you will have to face a new environment and get acquainted with your new colleagues...... It's also normal to occasionally meet a few colleagues who don't have a sense of time.
With that in mind, he went straight inside and found an empty table to put his things on.
After sitting down, Wayne took a closer look at the office.
I have to admit that the layout of this office is very comfortable, neat and tidy, and the air is fragrant, and I believe that I will be very happy when I work here in the future.
I saw that in this nearly 200-square-meter office, there were six desks at the entrance. The table top is very large, and it is made of nanmu, which looks very simple and heavy.
In the middle, the gunfire logo of the secret division is carved in hollow, and it is also deliberately painted in dark green.
The chair is a high-backed chair with a soft backrest and cushions.
The same pattern is carved on the back of the chair, which looks like the emblematic building of the city-state of Caster, the city-state council chamber.
The predecessor went there several times, right next to the Krems Cathedral, which belonged to the central area of the city-state of Castel.
In addition to these six sets of tables and chairs, there are also two sofas at the back by the window, and a small table resembling a coffee table in the middle.
It was supposed to be a place to receive or rest, because he also saw a cabinet in the corner next to it.
Lined with a complete set of tea sets and tools for grinding coffee, a couple of glass bottles, and a photograph?
Wayne got up and walked over, picked up the picture and looked at it.
"Sister Lacey, Rogert, and a white-haired girl, a funny young man, in the middle is ...... Let's call him Uncle. ”
This is a group photo of five people, which should have been taken a few years ago. Among them, Sister Lacey and Rogette are a few years younger than now.
From the smiles on their faces, it can be seen that several people are in a good mood.
Well...... Except for the white-haired girl - expressionless, or is it facial paralysis?
Wayne looked at her with a strange feeling.
I feel that this girl hates the whole world, and her eyes are too empty.
"I didn't expect Rogette to be quite handsome when he laughed, but it's a pity."
It's a pity that he's a mental polluter, and he's about to get out of control.
But what surprised Wei En even more was that the photo was not black and white, but in color.
This shows that the world's scientific and technological level is unexpectedly high, at least in terms of optics, it has a very high level.
Of course.
Or maybe it's not technology, it's magic...... You can confirm it later.
Also, there are several oil paintings hanging on the walls of the office.
The most conspicuous and largest one depicts an elderly man wearing monocles, with a signature underneath - Alex Koulibaly, the 13th Director of the Secret Division.
Well?
Wayne walked over to reconfirm before opening the panel and rummaging through the prompts.
[You are scanned by Ales Koulibaly's Psychic Perception, reward: +1 survival point.] (Chapter 12)
"It turns out that this one gave me a mental scan that day, and he is still the director."
He remembered that on the way to the property management department with Sister Lacey yesterday, he did see the office building where the director was located, which was in an inconspicuous small building next to the detention area.
The director who likes to peep at his subordinates, tsk!
Wayne returned to his desk and sat down, glancing at the clock again.
"It's already nine o'clock, isn't it?"
He knew that if there was only one outlier in one thing, it would mean that the side with the largest number of people was right.
It's not nine o'clock!
No wonder the guard at the door had such a strange look in his eyes......
After coming to this conclusion, Wayne was a little depressed.
If I had known that this would have been the case, I would have studied the parchment again......
Never mind.
Since he came early, he should take this as the first lesson that the secret division taught him.
Then he opened the file bag given by Sister Lacey yesterday, ready to familiarize himself with the work of the first investigation.
Syllable!
Wayne had just flipped open the first page of the first file, glanced at it, and closed it directly.
"Is it so exciting......
He reaffirmed the title of the cover of the archive - The Feast of the Liszt Family Manor.
That's right, the name looks pretty ordinary.
Unlike several other archives, what the Living Sacrifice of the Eternal Sleeper, the assassination of the Bishop of the Storm Church, Lilith's doll...... At first glance, it is a more terrifying case.
But why, why is there a photo like that on the first page?
Does this have anything to do with the feast?
Wayne wiped the cold sweat that had been scared from his forehead, thinking that he would often deal with these cases in the future, so he gritted his teeth and opened the file again.
"Damn, it's still scary!"
On the first page of the file, there was a photograph of a gorgeous banquet hall.
Of course, the focus is not on the location where this photo was taken.
It's the "people" in the ballroom.
The vast and luxurious banquet hall was littered with severed limbs, blood stained the carpet, and even the walls and even the huge chandelier.
Under the chandelier, there is a "pyramid" made of human heads.
The photo was taken so clearly that Wayne was taken aback when he first saw the scene.
It's just that the expressions of those heads are too weird.
The heads were men and women, elderly and children, and it was certain that they were all participants in the feast.
The expression on everyone's face is the same, not hideous, but the corners of the mouth are elongated, and it is a stiff and "brilliant" smile.
At the same time, their eyes were pale and hollow, without the slightest smile.
Coupled with the surrounding gore and scattered limbs, the whole picture is ...... It can only be described as weird!
Finally, in the lower left corner, Wayne notices a line of black handwriting - Liszt Manor, 66 Roland Street, Castle City, November 3, 1577 New Era.
Is this a case that happened last year?
He looked at it twice, and he couldn't help but turn to the second page, he couldn't bear such a scene.
"His mother's, the case in this world, the painting style is too scary."
The content of the second page is much more normal, and it records in detail the detection of this beautiful case.
"More than 113 people were killed at the feast at Liszt Manor, including 32 members of the Liszt family, and Farouk Liszt, alternate member of the city-state of Caster."
"After investigation, it was determined that it was the sacrificial ritual of the Eternal Life Society, Bloody Immortality, and the breath of the Bone Knight, a creature of the dark abyss, was also found at the scene."
"In the end, the Investigation Department of the Secret Investigation Department led a team led by Lacey Janice Montoya to solve the problem, and killed the member of the Eternal Society who caused this bloody case, Bloody Borace!"
Eternal Life?
A creature of the abyss, a skeleton knight?
Wayne couldn't find any information in his previous memory, so he shook his head and looked at several other files.
Needless to say, like the Liszt Manor case, the scenes are quite impactful.
It's either weird or bloody...... None of them are normal.
However, the same thing is that in these cases, the detectives are all Sister Lacey, and in the end, those perpetrators did not end well.
Do you like to bookmark the cases you are responsible for? Tsundere.
Wayne put down the file and smashed his mouth, "It's like watching a horror movie......"
