Mystery: Undead don't die from passing fire
Chapter 61
Chapter 61
What happened at Capin House undoubtedly caused a great stir in the city.
After all, the people involved in this case are all big shots in the Jowood District!
Not only the rich man Capin who is the owner of the villa, but also the deputy director of the police department, a member of the House of Commons who just announced his support for reform in a newspaper a few days ago, and the gang leader of the Eastern District who has committed all kinds of crimes.
And on the photo of the newspaper headline published by the newspaper.
In the eyes of ordinary people, these big men who used to be called the wind and rain are all hung neatly on the street lamps at this moment.
Blow in the wind.
"Cappin is dead."
Earl Hall, who was reading the newspaper, sighed softly.
"Who is Cappin?"
The blond girl who had just arrived at the restaurant and was secretly looking at Ember, who was sitting next to her, suddenly asked curiously.
"A rich man who was originally suspected of human trafficking in private."
Earl Hall put down the newspaper, shook his head and said, "But last night, more than a dozen abducted girls were rescued from the basement of his house and fled to the nearby Church of the Evernight, and his crime of human trafficking can basically be confirmed. In addition, many high-ranking officials were also killed together. Well, for example, the deputy director of the police department and a member of parliament."
"The newspaper said that it was a werewolf who did it. But after all, it was for civilians, and no more information was disclosed."
"It's clearly not legal."
Audrey blinked and said seriously, "But I think this Mr. Werewolf has done a good thing. However, generally speaking, such things should not be published in the newspapers, right?"
Audrey paused, expressing the doubts in her heart.
"Generally so."
Earl Hall did not hide it, but said noncommittally, "Kappin's death is irrelevant, but the information of other people involved will be hidden. But this time it happened suddenly. Although the night police found the body, but Those girls who were rescued went to the Church of Evernight first."
"So before the police, the official Extraordinary has already arrived at the scene. For them, whether they are deputy directors or councilors, they don't need to avoid danger. They only care about the integrity of the scene. Well, Ash should be better than the police in this regard. I have more say."
"Because of this, the police did not have time to deal with the scene, and the reporters who swarmed like sharks smelling blood naturally took this opportunity to take pictures. At this time, it is not the police whether they publish in the newspaper It can be said."
"Why did the deputy director get involved with a human trafficker?"
Lady Caitlin, Earl Hall's wife, couldn't help asking.
The deputy director of the police department sounds like a deputy, but it is definitely a high position!
In the police division of the Loen Kingdom, at the apex are the Minister of Police and the Chief Police Secretary, who are members of the cabinet.
And below them are the directors, deputy directors, and assistant directors of each police department.
The former will be rotated with the term of the cabinet, but the latter is almost life-long, as long as you don't make mistakes, you can keep working.
So although the latter rank is lower than the former, but the actual power is greater.
The headquarters of the Backlund Police Department is on Sivelas Street on the edge of Queens, so it is also nicknamed "Sivelas Field".
And that deputy director is the well-deserved second-in-command of Sivelas Field!
It is no exaggeration to say that the power is monstrous.
Why would such a person get involved with a human trafficker?
Even if the famous human trafficker is a rich man, what is a rich man living in Jorwood?
"do not know."
Earl Hall spread his hands and said helplessly, "My dear, there is only so much information in the newspaper. Maybe you can ask Ash, he may know more."
Hearing this, all the eyes of the family turned to Ember.
After all, Ember is a serious official Beyonder, and must know more information than them.
"..."
Ember who was drinking coffee silently put down the cup in his hand, pondered for a moment and said, "I didn't participate in the investigation of this case, and I don't know much about it. But the werewolf is the Sequence 7 of the Prisoner Sequence, and this sequence path has always been Mastered by the Rose School."
"Well, this organization is a secret organization, and it often commits some appalling tragedies. Just like the serial murder case I mentioned before, the Rose School of Thought and the Blood Worship Sect are both suspects."
"That is to say, neither side is a good person?"
Earl Hall rubbed his chin and wondered, "Could it be that the cause of this incident was actually the breakdown of cooperation between the two parties... Well, in the words of Emperor Roselle, it should be called dog eat dog."
"maybe."
Ember was noncommittal, took the food cut by the maid beside him, thanked him casually, and began to enjoy breakfast.
Audrey on the side blinked, she always felt that things should not be that simple.
"Audrey."
Earl Hall suddenly said, "The Church of Evernight has investigated and obtained some clues about the serial murder case. The murderer's target is those women who have sold their bodies, so you don't need Ash's protection anymore."
"Eh?"
Audrey's eyes moved slightly, and she asked calmly, "So, is Dad going to fire Ash?"
"Do not."
Earl Hall tried to see something from his daughter's face, but he couldn't see anything, so he smiled and said, "I will continue to hire Ash, but he will also serve as your occult teacher in addition to guarding you. Responsible for teaching you some common sense of mysticism."
"That's it."
A cunning flashed in Audrey's eyes, and she blinked at Ember, "Then, should I call you Teacher Ash instead?"
"I think so."
Ember nodded, and said seriously, "I think Audrey, you can call the teacher first to get used to it."
"Never!"
Audrey made a face at him and refused decisively.
The Count Hall and his wife saw the interaction between the two, and showed aunt-like smiles again.
"Clap clap."
Earl Hall clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Then, how about teaching starting today?"
After receiving the agreed response from the two, the Earl and Countess of Hall quietly left the scene.
And Audrey brought the embers to her room on the second floor—
Well, by the way.
Perhaps because she didn't want to be disturbed, Audrey also arranged a golden retriever outside the room to guard the door.
"Then, Ash."
Audrey blinked and said with a smile, "What are you going to teach me? After all, we all know the same 'common sense'~"
She knew it.
Ember's 'common sense' on the mysterious side is also extremely lacking, not much more than her.
They all got information from Mr. Fool and Mr. Hanged Man.
And this also means that she will also know the common sense that Ember knows.
In other words, Ember might actually have nothing to teach her.
"For example."
Ember could see what Audrey was thinking, and said calmly, "I have one more channel for obtaining information than you."
"Eh?"
Audrey froze for a moment, then remembered something.
Apart from being a member of the Tarot Society like her, Ember is also the official Nighthawk of the Church of Evernight.
Compared with himself who can only stay at home and cannot contact the mysterious side, Ember, who is an official Extraordinary, can get in touch with the information and intelligence of the mysterious side almost every day.
In other words, he can really teach himself.
PS: Some people insist that Audrey making funny faces in this chapter is a ruin.
The argument is that Audrey is from Loen, not from Intis, so she can't make funny faces...
Well, convincingly, well said.
I can't compete with you.
Play the original directly.
Paragraph 1: Roseanne made a face at his back, and whispered ferociously:
Paragraph 2: Anyway, I know the whole thing better than you, she grimaced in her heart. (Audrey)
Paragraph 3: Also... Audrey made a grimace to herself in her heart, hurried into the small room where she was resting, changed into her own clothes, and used Lie's ability to manipulate flames to burn off the previous disguise. (Audrey)
In conclusion, Squid is a stinking novelist, and he knows a shit about the Lord of Mysteries?
