Arthur frowned.

Not only was the snatched baby he rescued affecting his XP gains, but it was also because something was wrong.

The baby, he had held.

It's just the children of ordinary people, nothing special.

In that case, why would anyone be obsessed with this baby?

Even, go directly to the police station to rob it!

And also!

I also lost four babies before.

Seeing that Arthur only frowned, but did not scold angrily, Maltz breathed a sigh of relief, and when he first spoke, he imagined that Arthur opened his mouth to be a nonsense.

Because, when he knew about this matter just now, it was also a waste export.

At the Shire police station, under the noses of at least twenty people, the baby was snatched directly and a patrol officer was killed.

From the beginning to the end, the frightened police officers and patrol officers did not shoot or unsheath their long swords.

What is not waste?

Especially afterwards, he swore that he was afraid of accidentally injuring the baby.

If he hadn't wanted to retire peacefully, he would have had to slap the other party at that time.

It's simply 'Krosso's donkey'!

Krosso's donkey is a local specialty, small with no strength or stamina, and it can be said that it has no advantages other than delicious meat.

Of course, every time he was slaughtered, he screamed very loudly.

In South Los Angeles, many people with hard mouths and rubbish mouths are called 'Croso's donkeys'.

After cursing a few words in his heart, Maltz took several deep breaths, forced himself to calm down, and began to tell Arthur about the case-

"Early yesterday morning, the first to report the crime were Mr. and Mrs. Coffey in Pea Lane, followed by Mr. and Mrs. Neil in Pipe Lane, and at noon it was Mr. and Mrs. Nande in Olive Lane and Mr. and Mrs. Purton in Milk Thistle Lane."

"The first case and the second case were reported only 20 minutes apart, while the third and fourth cases were reported almost at the same time."

"At that time, the Shire police department sent out all the patrols."

"There were no more baby thefts after that, until the one that happened in the public carriage just now."

"After several witnesses identified the bodies, these two people have appeared near these baby theft cases, and the previous case should have been committed by these two people, but they stopped yesterday afternoon because of the increase in patrols, and today it took advantage of the rain to commit the crime together."

The third-class police officer recounted the case while saying his understanding.

Arthur didn't refute it.

Because, what the other party said is quite reasonable, and there are witnesses.

And this made Arthur more and more concerned about who stole the baby.

After all, if two traffickers take such a risk, the other party must have spent a lot of money - a price worth gambling with.

What does the other party want to do?

Arthur thought, and then asked.

"The person who snatched the baby, do you see it clearly?"

Maltz's face immediately turned ugly.

Because, of the more than 20 people, none of them could see the other party's face clearly, and a colleague was killed by the other party.

"Didn't you see it clearly?"

"Or did the other party cover his face with an object?"

Arthur asked.

Both ended up missing the face of the attacker, but the difference was vastly different.

The latter is covered by objects.

Former?

Then it's worth playing.

In the Shire District Police Station, according to the memory of the predecessor, there are at least 20 police officers and patrol officers stationed there.

One person can't see clearly, two people can't see clearly, and it's understandable in the panic.

But more than twenty people can't see clearly, that's impossible.

Or, these police officers are in a group with the other party, deliberately concealing it.

Either that, or the attackers used the means.

The former is unlikely, although the police officers and patrolmen of South Los are not good people, as long as they have enough interests, they can be bought, but it is too difficult to buy so many people at once.

And the latter?

Naturally, it is the mysterious side, or some special technique is used to create a similar effect to the mysterious side.

Plus that robber's obsessive baby.

Immediately, a word popped into Arthur's mind -

Rite!

Ritual on the mystical side!

He couldn't think of anything else than that.

At the same time, he finally understood why Maltz had come to him.

It's not just that he saved the baby that it's related, but it's also weird because of it.

Therefore, it is hoped that his mediumship will be borrowed.

But you know your own business.

He knows exactly what is going on with his psychic medium, and if he is arranged in advance, he will definitely be able to act like a god.

But this kind of emergency is the most difficult to handle.

Even old Charlie is unwilling to face such an emergency.

But Arthur didn't shirk it.

Because......

XP！

In order to hold on to the XP he was about to get and gain more XP, Arthur quickly calmed himself down and pondered the message Maltz had said.

Relying on certain experiences in his hometown, Arthur knew that the key now was the need for common ground in the case.

It's all babies, the same bunch of traffickers, and Pea Alley, Pipe Alley, Olive Alley, Milk Thistle Alley......

Well?!

Suddenly, Arthur squinted.

In addition to the common denominators described by Maltz, Pea Lane, Pipe Lane, Olive Lane, and Milk Thistle Lane are all in the Shire District......

No!

It's all near Kirk Street, to be exact!

Moreover, the four addresses are parallel to each other, and together they form a trapezoid.

But if you add a little more, it becomes a pentagon, or ......

Pentagram!

With the mysterious side ritual as a foreshadowing, Arthur naturally thought of the pentagram.

The five babies are the five points of the pentagram.

And what about the middle part?

What a building!

There it is......

14 Kirk Street!

Almost as soon as he circled the dot in his mind, Arthur's eyes narrowed.

This is too close to 2 Kirk Street.

It's so close that you can't look up and see you down.

Baskets from the grocery store, pork shop, dairy, and bakery may run out of baskets from the previous one and be used by the next.

Contact! Contact!

Thinking about his previous guess, Arthur's narrowed eyes glistened with coldness.

Toad!

It's that toad!

The other party borrows the pure blood of the baby to heal himself!

Arthur was at least eighty percent sure.

And the other party is attached to the baby because the baby's home is on the point of the pentagram.

There is no doubt that the five babies were carefully selected by the toad.

Why not beggars?

Because, the loss of the baby was early yesterday morning, and the time of the unknown other party's 'leaving the beggar's body' does not match!

However, he did not act immediately, but continued to listen to Maltz's words-

"I didn't see it clearly!"

"That's the weirdest thing!"

"The guy shot the patrolman who was looking at the baby, and then picked up the baby and left, the whole process was very open, but no one saw it clearly...... Well, maybe it's precise, I saw it, but afterwards, I don't remember the other person's face. ”

Maltz's words became uncertain.

And, as he spoke, he looked at Arthur's expression.

Then, the third-level constable began to writhe his body unnaturally - because Arthur was a little too scary at the moment.

In the dreaded and empty house, a handsome young man in a well-dressed house held a strange-looking puppet in his arms, and his eyes were unusually gentle.

Then, he raised his hand to comb the puppet's hair.

When Maltz saw this scene, his scalp went numb.

And at this very moment-

Woo!

A cool breeze mixed with raindrops blew in through the crack in the door.

Suddenly, Maltz shuddered.

The hairs on the back of the third-level police officer stood up at that time, not to mention, the whole person rushed to the door in one step, obviously planning to run.

But Arthur's voice behind him stopped him.

"'Anna', did you hear the screams of the Charcoal Flames?"

Charcoal Fire Street?

Where is the fifth baby family!

Maltz turned around, his eyes blazing at Arthur and the eerie puppet in Arthur's arms.

And after seeing Maltz turn around and the expression on the other party's face, Arthur was sure in his heart.

He knew, he guessed right.

Then next, naturally, is ......

His showtime!
