Chapter 220: The Intelligence Peddler
Klein, the original creator, was stunned for a moment, and then thought of the information that old Kohler had given before:
Recently, there have been people in the East, the docks, and the factories that have preached faith in the original Creator, that He is not really dead, that He is present in every human being, in everything, and that if you serve Him wholeheartedly and praise Him, you will not only be redeemed after death and enter His heavenly kingdom, but your current life will also be greatly improved, for example, you will have oily meat to eat every day.
This is very close to the Aurora Society's mutant creator theory, so Klein judged that the secret organization did it at the time, and felt that after the Lanrius incident, they began to pay attention to the vast number of poor people.
They have developed so arrogantly that they will pull people to become religious on the way? Klein replied thoughtfully:
"I've heard of it. β
The middle-aged man in old clothes suddenly smiled:
"Do you know that the end is coming, that the original Creator will establish an earthly sanctuary to shelter the faithful?"
For a moment, Klein wanted to take advantage of the situation to be proselytized, slowly break into the peripheral organization of the Aurora Society, collect corresponding evidence and clues, and retaliate against the other party's search for the "Fool" believers, but after careful consideration, he felt that it was too dangerous, and it was tiring, troublesome, and not necessarily effective to rely on himself.
Eventually, he decided to report the current phenomenon to the "Heart of the Machine" and let the official organization deal with it!
Thinking through this question, Klein instantly sank his expression:
"I don't know, and I don't want to know!"
He stepped forward, shook off the other man, and ignored the middle-aged man's shout.
On the way out of the Eastern District, he took a closer look and found that many workers who had lost their jobs due to the improvement of the textile machinery and the off-season at the docks had gathered in groups to listen to the reassurance and teachings of the unknown people.
The investigation of the East District, the Wharf District, and the Factory District was completed in the first two months, so why haven't the three major churches and the House of Representatives come up with concrete measures? They must have paid more attention to this area, and they will not fail to find out about the current situation...... Want to cast a long line to catch a big fish? Well, it's easy to get away with! Crane pressed the cap on his head as he walked out of the East End and headed straight for the Beckland Bridge area.
The "Brave" bar had just opened its doors at noon, and there were hardly any drunkards, except for the busy workers in the neighborhood who would enter and ask for a humble lunch.
Klein mingled among them, and spent 10 pence ordering an oatmeal bread with pork sausage and a glass of Southwell beer, looking very rich.
Slowly, he filled his stomach and drank all his beer, and then he looked at the bartender:
"Is Caspars KΓ€llinen here?"
He intends to replenish some ordinary ammunition by the way.
The bartender glanced at him:
"You don't seem to be here in a long time?
"Caspars is dead, supposedly restless at night, wrapped up too tightly, and covered himself to death, hehe, I don't really believe this kind of thing happens, I've only heard similar situations in ghost stories, but those black and white dogs say so. β
The black and white dog refers to a police officer in a black and white checkered uniform.
Covered in your own quilt? Sounds occult...... Is it that the high-order powerhouse of the Rose School chose to kill people to vent his anger because he has been finding Miss Sharon and Marich? What about the personality of the high-order powerhouse? Looking at it this way, Caspars can't contact Miss Sharon and them...... Maybe they've left Beckland......
Caspars still didn't anticipate the dangers of the otherworldly world enough, if it were me, I wouldn't have returned to the "Brave" bar at all, and I would have taken the money I had saved up and changed the city for a different environment...... However, under normal circumstances, high-level powerhouses will not specifically deal with this kind of ordinary people, and at most they will not consider whether there are sequelae when they force "psychic...... It is worthy of the Rose School of indulging desires, and a high-level powerhouse can actually do such a thing......
Klein was amazed and sympathetic to the black-market arms dealer.
The bartender wiped his glass and continued:
"If you're looking to buy something, there's a new merchant right now. β
"Who?" Klein asked casually.
"'Old man', it's in the No. 3 billiard room. The bartender said without looking up.
Klein immediately got up, paced slowly to the familiar place, and knocked on the hidden door.
"Come in. A voice rang out.
This voice is a little familiar...... Crane pushed open the wooden door and looked inside.
Standing at the table was a young boy wearing an old coat, a brown bowler hat, and bright red eyes, who was the same Ian that Klein had met when he first arrived in Beckland, and because of the disappearance of Detective Zerrell he had commissioned, he was involved in the third-generation difference machine manuscript dispute, and had to spend a lot of money to ask Mr. A of the Aurora Society to kill BΓ©kron Jean Martin, the ambassador of the Indisis to the Kingdom of Rune.
"Is that you, Detective Moriarty?" Ian startled.
He deliberately put two handfuls of beard on his mouth to make himself look old.
Klein entered the billiard room with a smile, closed the door and said:
"Long time no see. β
He was initially surprised by Ian's appearance and becoming a black-market arms dealer, but he quickly thought of some details and felt that it made sense:
Klein's ability to find the "Brave" bar and Caspars Canlinen was introduced by Ian.
This big boy must have some connections nearby!
"yes. Ian restrained his stunned expression and muttered, "I went to Port Prydz for two months, and found that the guys were savage and fierce, and had no humility or love for children, so I had to go back to Beckland and do what I was good at again, and then I decided to change careers when Caspars died." β
Without waiting for Klein to speak, he added:
"Mr. Detective, I have always kept it in my heart, and I still owe you two more requests. β
There's no need to explain so much, and I don't care what you've done in the past, although I've always found your escape from MI9 a little suspicious, but I don't care too much...... Klein picked up a club, gestured and said:
"In addition to dealing in underground weapons, you seem to be selling intelligence?"
"Yes. Ian replied very calmly, "What do you want to know?" β
It's bold, isn't it...... Guilty of what happened to me?Klein pushed out the cue stick and hit the cue ball, allowing a red ball to land exactly in the middle pocket.
He was not polite, straightened up and said:
"Recently, I have been looking for believers in the 'Fool', and there are many bounties, what news do you have?"
Ian thought for a moment and said:
"Nope.
"I even wondered if the 'Fool' had followers, but no one could find a clue. β
...... This is called cannon hitting the air...... Klein silently laughed at himself, and instead asked:
"Also, there's a bounty, somebody is looking for a university tutor named Azik Eggers, and I want to know who posted this bounty to make sure I want to get involved in it, heh, it's a waste of time. β
Ian didn't answer directly, looked around, and lowered his voice:
"MI9. β
MI9 is not a Spirit Order...... It seems that it was Ince Zangwill's arrangement that brought Mr. Azik into conflict with MI9?Maybe he knew some secret that he shouldn't know?Klein flashed a series of thoughts in an instant, and finally smiled:
"It seems that I don't have to worry about the bounty being fake, but I'm afraid that Azik Eggers was tracked by MI9 because he had some secrets, so maybe the day I got the bounty would be the last days of my life. β
Ian spread his hands:
"I don't know.
"But you can just give clues. β
"Nice advice. Klein didn't ask any more questions, spent 5 sules, refilled some normal bullets, and left the "Brave" bar.
got into the taxi carriage and looked at the gloomy weather outside the window, he suddenly sighed:
"The death of Caspars Canlinen means that Miss Sharon and MariΔ will abandon this 'stronghold'. I can only contact them unilaterally, and it is difficult to find them again......
"Unless they're in trouble and need help, or when they're at the stage of dealing with that evil spirit in the underground ruins, I shouldn't be able to see them.
"Although I am not a friend, I have worked together twice, and I am an acquaintance who can interact as an extraordinary person without covering his face, so that there are two fewer similar people.
"If it weren't for the 'Apostle of Desire' incident, only the strange vampire Emlyn White would have been able to communicate with the occult realm without disguise.
"It's okay, it's okay......"
In the midst of the silent sigh, an illusory voice suddenly sounded in Klein's ears:
"What's the matter with you?"
Klein's hair stood up in an instant, and after seeing clearly who was sitting in front of him, he breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled helplessly:
"Miss Sharon, do you always show up like this unknowingly?"
Wearing a Gothic court dress and a small black floppy hat, Sharon was sitting quietly on the other side of the carriage, her face as pale as ever.
"Next time I'll knock on the window. Sharon nodded without emotion.
She didn't repeat the previous question, just looked at Klein quietly and reservedly.
It's scary to knock on the window, too...... Klein didn't rush to mention the matter of "Human Skin Shadow", but asked:
"That high-sequence powerhouse is gone?"
"Yes. Sharon spat out a word.
Crane breathed a sigh of relief and reminded:
"It could also be a trap. β
Speaking of this, he remembered something, and hurriedly added:
"I've finished reading the Book of Secrets and have received news from other sources that it's easy to go wrong with the Primordial Moon, and it's best not to try it. β
"Good. Sharon didn't ask why.
She paused for a second, then said in a ethereal voice:
"'Primordial Moon' and 'Bound God' are suspected sworn enemies. β
Because the sequences can be interchanged? or for some other reason, Klein thoughtfully introduces the topic into the formal:
"Miss Sharon, do you know where the 'Shadow of Human Skin' trait is?"
Sharon, who was like a puppet, listened calmly and nodded:
"Yes. β
