Mystery: Undead don't die from passing fire

Chapter 51 What kind of life is a few hundred dollars a month!
"Why didn't you say something so important earlier?!"

Fors shrank her neck, and sat down close to Xio with some fear.

At the same time, he looked around nervously, and couldn't help shivering when he accidentally saw a black shadow drifting by outside the window.

Because the place where they live now is not in the Hillston area? !
The murderer might live next door to them!

"It's just a guess."

Different from Forsi's nervousness, Ember said indifferently, "Although cultists usually can't help their murderous instincts, they usually don't choose to commit crimes in the same place, so living here is actually not a bad idea." Safety."

"Forsi."

Xio also had a dignified expression, and solemnly warned, "Try not to go out these few nights."

"Of course I know."

Forsi rubbed her hair, but couldn't hold back the growing nervousness in her heart, and said in a self-comforting manner, "Besides, I didn't go out much in the first place, so it's still very safe... right?"

"Actually, not necessarily."

Ember rubbed his chin, and said casually, "That Nighthawk was Sequence 8, and he was killed in his living room, so it's best for you to stay together these few days."

"You said it like you didn't say it. What's the use of staying together!"

Forsi said a little annoyed.

The official Beyonders of Sequence 8 were all killed, and they were still in their own home.

Even if these two Sequence 9s stay together, how useful is it?

Can it be convenient for the murderer to kill two at a time?
"Perhaps I can resist a little."

Ember shrugged, and said casually, "If you are afraid, you can find some places with a lot of people, such as salons, banquets, etc., and you can just stay there overnight. The murderer obviously doesn't want to attract too much attention, so he shouldn't be in a crowded place." place to commit murder."

Forsi rolled her eyes, isn't it the same as saying nothing?

Fortunately, she still has a necklace. If she really meets the murderer, she can use the necklace to get away
"In other words, are you tracking down the whereabouts of the murderer all day today?"

Xio felt a little complicated in his heart, and immediately respected Ember.

"Have you found any clues? I mean about the murderer."

Forsi immediately asked.

Although she has a necklace to save her life, she doesn't want to be in constant fear.

Of course it would be great if the murderer could be caught as soon as possible.

"do not know."

Ember said frankly.

"do not know?"

Forsi was a little surprised, and Xio's eyes were also a little puzzled, "If there is no, then there is no, why don't you know?"

"and many more!"

Forsi looked at Ember in surprise, "Didn't you track down the clues for a day? Why didn't you know?"

"Because I came back here after leaving Earl Hall's house, and I haven't had time to go back and ask the other team members for any clues."

"Wait."

Fors noticed something strange, and asked, "When did you go to Earl Hall's house?"

"morning."

Ember looked calm, but Xio and Forsi were surprised, and suddenly opened their eyes wide.

"In other words, you went to Earl Hall's house after investigating the crime scene in the morning, and then stayed there until dark?"

Forsi's expression was inconceivable, and even Xio was a little skeptical about life. What was she admiring just now?
"more or less."

Ember nodded calmly.

"Almost a ghost!"

Forsi complained speechlessly, so haven't you been fishing for a whole day?
She originally thought that she was good enough to touch fish, but she didn't expect Ember to be able to touch fish better than her!
She is an author anyway, and her working hours are all based on her personal interests.

But Ember is a Nighthawk!
He is a serious and official employee who receives double salaries from the church and the police.

In the end, he actually fished for a whole day, even when his colleagues died tragically!
Even if that colleague has never met you, but the other party is a Nighthawk just like you!

Since you have seen the death of the other party, don't you have any intention of avenging her?

Is your conscience okay?

"but……"

While Forsi was complaining from the bottom of her heart, her thoughts gradually diverged.

She suddenly realized a problem.

Since she has known Ember for so long, it seems that Ember has never done anything serious.

And she knocks down embers almost every time she goes to a salon.

"Don't you have to go to work?"

Forsi raised a question deep in her heart.

"I'm flexible working."

Ember glanced at him and said leisurely.

"What kind of flexible method?"

Fors continued to question persistently.

"That's a good question."

Ember pondered for a moment, then replied after a pause, "Probably, you can go to work whenever you want, and leave work when you want. It's quite free."

"Are you really a Nighthawk?"

The expression on Forsi's face twitched slightly, she swore she had never seen such a Nighthawk.

Although Ember was the only Nighthawk she had ever seen, the Nighthawk she remembered was not like Ember!

Or is the Church of Evernight's welfare to the Nighthawks already so good?

"If all the Nighthawks are like you, I think it's okay for me to go up to me."

Forsi couldn't help complaining, and Xio nodded silently, obviously agreeing with Forsi's words.

After all, who wouldn't know how to fish!
It's work, but Ember is like taking paid vacations 365 days a year, okay?
I think when her father was the head of the royal guard, he was often too busy to go home once a month.

Because he is the most trusted person around the king, he must stay by the king's side every step of the way.

Comparing with Ember, Xio suddenly felt that his father's contribution was totally unworthy.

"correct."

As if thinking of something, Forsi's eyes suddenly lit up, and she looked at Ember expectantly, "Ash, can you stay and protect me for a few days?"

"No."

Ember said lightly, "I still have work to do."

"You don't even have to go to work, so there's still work to do!"

Forsi couldn't help complaining.

"Who told you I only had one job?"

Ember asked back.

"Eh?"

Forsi looked at Ember strangely, "As a Nighthawk, do you also take private jobs?"

Xio also often takes private work outside, but this is partly because of her personality, and partly because she doesn't have a serious job, so she has plenty of time.

But Ember is the Nighthawk.

You, an official civil servant, are actually doing private work outside?
Is this really worthy of the salary the church pays you?Are you worthy of your belief in the goddess? !
Facing Forsi's doubts, Ember behaved quite calmly.

How much money is paid for how many things, what kind of life is a few hundred pounds a month?
What's more, he didn't have any sense of belonging to the Church of Evernight.

He took the money, he drank the potion, and he enjoyed the convenience.

But the big deal is to turn the Evernight Goddess slightly back when burning firewood, which is already his greatest 'gratitude' for this.
