Chapter 64 Finalizing the Plan
"The future of Raft Pound. ”
Crane held the Baron by the hair, closed his eyes, and with the help of meditation, fell into a deep sleep.
In the gray sky, he saw a narrow, irregular hole, and Raft Pound, with puffy eyes and gray temples, crawled forward like a reptile with his elbows on the ground.
Immediately after, the picture flashed, and he picked up a black iron badge out of nowhere and put it on his chest.
The badge was carved with a scepter and a hand holding it!
"Tudor!" Crane awoke from his dream and sat up straight.
According to the introduction of Miss Bodyguard, the black iron badge is engraved with the royal coat of arms of the Quaternary Tudor Empire!
It was exactly the same thing he had seen in that old building!
"Raft Pound is definitely not as simple as he has been......" Crane rubbed his forehead and whispered to himself.
As a "soothsayer", he has his own interpretation of the revelation he has just seen in the dream, on the one hand, he knows that it is what Raft Pound will do in the future, and on the other hand, he thinks that it shows that Raft Pound himself has a deep connection to the Tudor family!
After the triple test of positive questioning, "dreaming" probing, and "psychic" communication, Raft Pound did not expose any problems, nor did I notice the slightest abnormality, if it wasn't for my own hand, I am afraid that he would have deceived the past, huh...... Perhaps, maybe he really didn't know anything now, he was performing in his true colors just now, and only in the future did he encounter an opportunity to get in touch with the Tudor family......
But it is more likely that he has learned a lot of things from the old viscount, and before he is sure, he deliberately degenerates and pretends to be crazy and stupid, and the "dreaming" and "psychic" that can hide from me are some kind of extraordinary ability at work, eh...... He shouldn't have been acting at the time, and he was really in a state of confusion, otherwise he would have been exposed in front of me with a lot of experience......
What kind of extraordinary ability could it be?
How many sequences does he have?
Or the kind that is born with some extraordinary abilities?
Klein thought about it all the way, felt that he had entered a dead end, hurriedly pulled out, changed his angle, and said to himself silently:
"Raft Pound has a deep connection to the Tudot family......"
"Is it possible to make a bold assumption that he is actually a descendant of the Tudor family?"
"If his blood relationship with the old viscount is real, then things are interesting. ”
"The entire Pound family is a branch of the Tudor family that changed its name and surname to escape pursuit?"
"They have made meritorious deeds, received knighthoods, and gradually returned to the center of power, while at the same time, they secretly searched for the secret relics left behind by the Tudor Empire in Beckland. ”
After an unknown number of years, they finally had a reward, so they bought the house that currently belonged to Miller Carter and built an exaggerated basement to explore the surrounding area. ”
"Thirty or forty years ago, they found the ruins and built a secret door that led to it. ”
"However, in the process of exploring the ruins, there was an accident, the evil spirit did not recognize the so-called descendants of the Tudor family, and the two heirs of the old viscount died in the innermost room one after another, and even the extraordinary properties and magical items could not be rescued. ”
"Although the old viscount spent a lot of money to buy similar extraordinary characteristics to make the deaths of the two heirs seem more normal, the successive violent deaths are still somewhat suspicious in the eyes of the royal family and the church, so after the death of the old viscount, Raft Pound deliberately exaggerated and distorted the secret investigation of the year, so that he 'frightened' himself into psychological problems, and began to indulge in alcohol and gambling in order to escape attention. ”
"This can explain one of the things that I was puzzled about before, the dignified Viscount family is controlled by mysterious people from nowhere, when the royal family and the church are blind? ”
"A child can detect abnormalities, let alone the royal family and the powerhouses of the three major churches?"
"The only explanation for their 'not knowing' is that they sent them. ”
"Hmm...... At that time, I guessed that the Tudor family and the Trenthorst family also mastered the 'Black Emperor' path, so based on the needs of the role, the dynasty they established would retain the style and characteristics of the Solomon Empire, which Miss Bodyguard seemed to confirm from the side. ”
"Sequence 9 of the 'Black Emperor' path is 'Lawyer', an extraordinary profession that is very good at exploiting order, eh...... Raft Pound's deceptive ability to 'dream' and 'psychic' comes from this, or further, he fully cooperates with me, but in the dream and nightmare state, he still subconsciously exploits the loopholes in order to make the result go in the direction he wants. ”
"If you think about it, in the process of 'channeling', it seems that Raft Pound is not really lying, but the truth is only part of the truth...... Maintain the family and remember the glory, which can refer to the Pound family or the Tudor family......"
Klein's thinking became clearer little by little, and he had an overall judgment on things:
Judging from Raft Pound's current attitude, without external help, the evil spirit should not be able to get out of trouble, otherwise the baron should have found a way to save himself, no matter whether the evil spirit will come to him or not, as long as the other party escapes the seal and creates a disaster, the matter of the underground ruins will not be hidden from the royal family and the church, and when the time comes, Raft will inevitably be implicated...... The collapse of the opposite room did not affect the power that bound the evil spirit, which means that as long as the innermost room is not directly destroyed, the evil spirit will not be able to get out of the trap......
Well...... The plan is very clear, buy some explosives from Caspers, collapse the entrance, make it impossible for anyone to enter, and let that evil spirit be buried in the ground forever, heh, when I have enough strength, I can consider solving it, help the citizens of Backerland completely get rid of this hidden danger, and harvest some valuable items by the way......
But how do you blast the safest? I don't know anything about it...... Perhaps, which demolition expert does Caspars know? After all, he is a black-market weapons dealer.
Klein quickly finalized the plan, and decided to go back to Caspers tomorrow evening, hoping to settle the matter of the underground ruins once and for all within this week.
As for the true relationship between the Pound family and the Tudot family, and as for the anomaly of Raft Pound, he did not want to delve into it at all.
"None of my business!" Klein muttered, quickly falling into the gray fog and returning to the real world.
............
On Friday morning, Klein still went out early, pretending to be very busy.
The reality was that he was once again at the Kragg Club, where he practiced shooting, read the newspaper, and had a pretty good time.
At tea time, he was about to leave after almost a day of mixing here, but he was surprised to see Marie Gale, a former employer, and Talim Dumont, an equestrian teacher, entering the club at the same time.
They were accompanied by many gentlemen in long double-breasted dresses and ladies with beautiful dresses and elaborate makeup, including the Daily Observer's journalist, Mike Joseph.
"Oh, Detective Moriarty, what a coincidence. Mike, who had charming eyes but rather rough skin, took the initiative to say hello.
Klein responded with a smile:
"Mr. Reporter, is your investigative journalism done?"
"It's done, thanks to your help! Let me introduce you, this is the famous great detective, Mr. Sherlock Moriarty, a good friend of Talim. Mike waved his arm.
After greeting each other, Mike continued:
"I've probably figured out who Capin is, I'll tell you more detail when I have time, anyway, I already have good reason to believe that Shiebel died because of a copycat crime, not the serial killer, haha, tomorrow, tomorrow you'll be able to read my investigative journalism in the newspapers. ”
"Same as I guessed. Klein responded with a smile.
At this point, Mike seemed to remember something, and turned his head to Mary Gale:
"I'll have an interview with you about the situation and solutions to air pollution in Beckland, but you have to communicate with the editor-in-chief of our newspaper in advance to finalize the layout and time. ”
Mary's eyes lit up and she said:
"Okay. ”
"Thank you so much, Mike, I didn't think of this good idea!"
Is this a campaign to enter the Kingdom Air Pollution Investigation Commission? Mike is a very experienced journalist...... the Daily Observer is not the best newspaper, but it has a considerable circulation...... Mary is here today because the members of the House of Commons who have joined this club are coming? This form of private club is really suitable for politics and business...... Klein abruptly took his leave.
Before becoming a "faceling", he didn't want to get involved in this kind of high-level business.
............
In the evening, in an apartment in the East End.
After a busy day, Williams entered the small room he rented, intending to change his coat, grab some money, and go to the tavern for a good drink, and settle dinner there by the way.
In the gloomy and dim environment, his movement in his coat suddenly stopped.
He saw a dark shadow standing by the window, a dark shadow whose face was completely obscured by the shadow of the hood.
"Who told you to look for Lanrius?" the shadow asked in a low and slow voice.
Williams quickly put on his coat, swallowed his spit, and said:
"A friend of mine, a bounty hunter. ”
Bounty hunters are adventurers whose main source of income is various bounties, and there are quite a few in the East End, in Beckland.
"Why did he suddenly start looking for Lanrius again? The shadow was very tall, and it walked up to Williams step by step.
"I don't know, maybe, she's just trying to change the bounty. Williams stepped back slightly.
The dark shadow asked hoarsely:
"Who is she?"
Williamston struggled, and after a few seconds he replied in a trembling voice:
"Hugh, Hugh Dilcha, I don't know where she lives. ”
"Nice and honest. The dark shadow reached out and patted Williams' body, and without further questioning, walked towards the door.
Williams quietly breathed a sigh of relief, believing that his rich underworld experience had helped him.
Don't be reckless when you shouldn't!
Just then, he saw the dark shadow snap his fingers.
Syllable!
Williams' thoughts froze, and his body split apart in an instant, spreading out in all directions, leaving the ground and walls covered in flesh.
Immediately after, the shadow struck the gas pipe.
In Zzitz's voice, he picked up the candle on Williams' desk and rubbed the candle.
The shadow then left, and a few minutes later, the candle suddenly lit on its own!
Bang!
The sound of explosions drowned out everything.
