Moriarty? Why is he here?

Angel looked behind the detective and saw that there was no one else, then his eyes returned to this person, and he looked up and down, and a thought came to his mind, which he felt incredible:

He's not here to report it, is he?

The next moment, Angel's guess was confirmed.

"I was about to find someone to help me put the report letter into the mailbox, when I saw a homeless man who finished the letter and walked towards you, so I followed ......"

Sure enough, Moriarty is also a well-hidden whistleblower.

Taking the report letter that he hadn't had time to send, Angel looked at the contents and found that it was similar to what he had written, and even attached a hand-drawn pencil portrait that resembled Heras and Belis.

"It's better to put your letter in, my report letter doesn't have a portrait attached."

She shook the letter from her hand and said to Moriarty.

"There's no need, a letter to remind them is enough, maybe the 'substitutes' have already interrogated the surviving servants and guards of the Caping family, and are wanted by them, well, maybe us."

Speaking of this, both were silent.

After a while, Moriarty spoke again.

"I determined the whereabouts of Emily and the other rescued girls through divination, the police and the substitutes did not embarrass them, most of the girls who were kidnapped have returned to their homes, but Emily ......"

The poor girl's parents had already died in the incident, and although Emily and the O'Neilles had "committed suicide" by jumping off the Tasok River during Angel's Magic Mirror divination, she ended up in the basement of the Caping family, indicating that the results of the divination had been interfered with.

But even after killing Capping and blowing up his home, the two still haven't found enough evidence to reasonably deduce the true cause of their deaths.

Perhaps the O'Nell family was controlled by Heras through various decrees, or perhaps a certain extraordinaire who could interfere with divination was not in Capin's mansion at the time, so it was not discovered by Angel and Moriarty, but all this may have to wait for the "substitute" to investigate.

“…… Fortunately, she is currently under the protection of the police, and since she has no other relatives, Emily is likely to be adopted by a police-appointed guardian until she inherits the family's property when she reaches adulthood. It wasn't a good ending for her, but there was no better way. ”

During the conversation, the two left the Cathedral of the Holy Wind through the alley to avoid being discovered by the "substitutes" who received the report.

At this time, the night was dark, and in order to take care of Moriarty, the "magician" who had no dark vision, Angel picked a street with street lights, and the two walked side by side.

"There shouldn't be a new gathering of the 'Wisdom Eye' lately, and maybe you will only have a chance to find someone to fix that extraordinary weapon after the serial murderer has been arrested and the police, military, and official extraordinaries have let their guard down."

Moriarty whispered that there weren't many pedestrians on the street, but he kept his voice low when talking about the occult to avoid being heard by ordinary people.

Angel nodded in agreement:

"The same is true of another gathering of extraordinary people that I know of, but I doubt that they will be able to find the murderer."

At this point, she told the detective what she had heard from Severia.

"Promotion Ceremony for the 'Demon' Sequence......"

The other party was not as surprised as she imagined, as if she already knew or deduced the relevant information.

"I'm also involved in the investigation of serial killings, helping to find some information, and finding some clues that the killer likes to attack young women who have been 'street girls', and they even suspect that the killer may not be human."

"Not human?"

Angel raised an eyebrow and blurted out.

For a moment, she thought it was some kind of swearing, but then she thought of Miss Justice's dog who had taken the audience's potion, the "transcendent dog".

Could it be that another animal that has taken potions in the past, and has even been promoted several times, is preparing to advance to Sequence 5 by killing people in a series of killings to fulfill the ritual requirements for taking potions?

"That's right, according to my inference, the murderer may have had the same serial killing experience before preparing for this promotion, so he is so skilled and presumptuous. But almost all serial murders in Beckland, and even across the country, are registered, so after searching to no avail, the detectives set their sights on the possibility of 'animals'. ”

"The 'murder' of animals by animals does not arouse the concern of human society at all." Angel took his words and added.

Moriarty nodded in agreement.

"But if that's the case, how does an animal find the formula, buy potion materials, and mix potions for promotion? Unless...... Unless there's someone behind it to help it? ”

Angel shuddered at the thought of this possibility.

She had in her mind a mysterious man in a black robe, feeding the potion she had prepared to the strange-looking creature in front of her.

If the official extraordinaire has been able to determine that the killer of the serial murder is an animal, then why has there been no progress in the arrest?

"Maybe they haven't thought of this layer yet, after all, these immature speculations are only circulating among detectives, maybe the military wants to use serial murders to rectify the underground world of Beckland, so they are not in a hurry to catch the criminals, who knows?"

The detective sneered with an incomprehensible meaning.

"But we can report it and tell them about the possibility, there are already 12 victims, and if the murderer is not greedy and is ready to meet the minimum requirements of the promotion ceremony and is promoted, then it will stop as long as it kills one more person, and maybe it will never be found again."

Moriarty stopped and looked at Angel in disbelief.

"Aren't you afraid of being involved in yourself?"

"You forgot? I have anti-divination, and it's worth the risk. ”

There was silence for a long time, and there was a hint of a smile in the detective's eyes behind the lenses.

"I've actually given the detectives a hint, and I'm sure they'll come to a similar conclusion soon and notify the police and the authorities, but you're right, we can do more and do more.

"I'll go back and sort out the clues I found for you, so that the official extraordinary person can catch this 'demon' as soon as possible."

With that, he looked back, but immediately looked at Angel again.

"I've wanted to ask from just now, where did you take me?"

Well?

Angel also looked around, and the two of them unconsciously walked into an alley that was narrower than just now, and the road that even horse-drawn carriages could not pass through was lined with cramped three-story buildings, and from the second floor, the balcony protruded outward, obscuring the top of the alley so that the moonlight was almost invisible, and the top of the only lamppost at the entrance of the alley emitted a faint light, which could not illuminate them at all.

"I thought you were leading the way......"

She muttered, unable to recall how she had come to this alley.

By the way, get lost...... Could it be the negative effect of the "master key"?

But we are two people, can the role of this key make people lose their way, and even the people around them can be affected?

After thinking for a moment, Angel had to admit that maybe Moriarty was right, she really led the way unintentionally, and the negative effect of magical items that made people randomly lose their way made her take the two of them together to an unknown alley.

Seeing that she was a little dumbfounded, Moriarty chuckled, touched the sleeve of his left wrist with his right hand, hesitated for a moment and then lowered his hand, and swept his gaze to the ground beside him.

"It's okay, I'm looking for a stick, it's very useful to find your way in this case, and I'll tell you the truth, I used to ...... when I first arrived in Beckland."

His words were cut off abruptly, and his eyes sharpened.

Angel also felt a cold chill at this moment, her magic mirror had been destroyed in the battle of the Kaping family, and she had not yet had time to make a new one, but even so, the spirit gave a real urgent warning.

There are "people" attacking them!

Above the balcony above the sky, a huge figure fell rapidly, and the target was Sherlock Moriarty, who had just sensed it and raised his head.
