Chapter 11 Rumors
Before Mark and others could react, Oss turned into a puff of black smoke, passed through the policemen, and rushed to the stairs. Shaar raised his hand and grabbed a black shadow from the black smoke that passed him. But the black smoke did not dissipate because of this, but continued to rush up the stairs.
Calcifer's voice sounded in Shaar's mind, "Hurry up! It will be very troublesome to let Nightmare escape."
Without hesitation, Xia directly chased the black smoke and flew out of the storage room. Before the police could react, another black figure jumped down from the corner of the room, quickly passed through the crowd, and followed them ran away from here.
For a while, only these secret policemen were left in the storage room. Some secret policemen's legs and feet went limp, and they collapsed on the ground, panting heavily, looking like they were alive after a catastrophe.
Mark's body also relaxed slightly. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, and looked at several colleagues who were lying on the ground. Their bodies were already stained red with blood, but they were still breathing. The power of the flintlock gun was not strong. big.
He quickly shouted to the surrounding policemen.
"Quick! Stop the bleeding! Send them to the hospital!"
The surrounding policemen reacted, and immediately started to stop the bleeding of their colleagues and treat the wounds in a hurry.
The policeman who was about Mark's age approached him and lowered his voice.
"Mark, in this situation, how should we tell our superiors?"
Mark frowned and thought for a moment, looked at the mess around him, recalled what had just happened, and sighed.
"Report it truthfully. Now all this is beyond what we can handle."
In this era, natural science is not so developed, there are almost no materialists, and there are still many mysterious legends, although most of them are rumors after some artistic processing.
But these policemen still have a high degree of acceptance of such supernatural events.
The policeman said solemnly, "What the hell is that, and what is that man who suddenly appeared, even such a terrible thing is afraid of him."
Mark was silent for a moment and said, "I can only hope that some people above can know the truth."
The man nodded.
For the low-level policemen like Mark, they are very clear that there are many terrible and important secrets buried in the hearts of those upper-level people who control most of the power and wealth in Britannia.
They were not surprised that these people knew the truth about this supernatural event tonight.
But apparently, magic has been out of touch with this world for too long.
Even if the power of fate brings it back to this world, these people who have nothing to do with fate are unlikely to have come into contact with the mystery.
"How's the situation? Has the Marquis of Oss been found?"
A marquis was missing, and his life and death were unknown. With such a big event, it was naturally impossible for the rest of the nobles to continue attending the banquet.
Alicia also returned to her own bedroom in the palace. It seems that because her eyes can't see, the room is very simple and has made a lot of blind design.
She sat by the window and asked the maid in front of her who had just inquired about the news.
Just now, the head of Queens' secret investigation office was making a case report to the Minister of the Interior, and she happened to be beside her.
The maid pondered for a moment, as if trying to organize her words, and then she said: "According to Director Hagus, after the Marquis of Oss disappeared, he began to organize his police to blockade the entire imperial capital, and went door to door. conduct a search.
Finally, more than 600 meters away from the crime scene, traces of the Marquis of Oss were found. However, when they arrived, the Marquis of Oss was already dead, his chest was pierced by a sharp weapon, and the murderer was nowhere to be found. "
Alicia nodded solemnly.
Originally, it was just an ordinary murder case here, but the identity of the dead person was quite special. However, following the follow-up maid's narration, the situation began to go wrong.
"When the secret police were preparing to continue their search for the murderer, the Marquis of Oss was revived right under their noses."
Alicia frowned, "Resurrection?"
The maid nodded, with obvious fear in her eyes, "According to the eyewitness Inspector Mark, it's more like being possessed by an evil spirit.
He said that thing was more evil and terrible than any heinous criminal they had ever seen, and it also possessed evil witchcraft.
The moment all the secret policemen saw his eyes, they lost control of their bodies and were manipulated by him like puppets.
Manipulating them to point guns at their own companions, trying to make them kill each other. "
"What happened next?" Alicia asked urgently, "How about those secret agents?"
"Later a mysterious person appeared." The maid said.
"Mystery man?"
For some reason, Alicia remembered the guy who appeared at the banquet, the biggest suspect who kidnapped the Marquis of Oss
"What does it look like?" Alicia asked.
The maid recalled, "Black hair and black eyes, wearing a black robe, but the specific details are not clear."
Pretty much what the people at the party described, Alicia thought.
Although black hair and black eyes are not specific in the imperial capital, she can already be 100% sure in her heart that it is that person.
The maid's narration continued: "The evil spirit seemed to be particularly afraid of the mysterious man, and after seeing him, he yelled, "How could you have come to the world? "After that, I ran away."
"How could it be possible to come to the human world?" Alicia frowned slightly, "What do you mean, that is not a person from the human world?"
"I don't know, but according to Inspector Mark's guess, it should be a terrifying existence higher than that evil spirit."
Alicia fell into deep thought, and then she asked, "Is this mysterious person good or bad?"
"I don't know." The maid shook her head and said, "But according to Inspector Mark, it is certain that the mysterious man and the evil spirit are not together.
According to his speculation, the reason why the people behind the scenes kidnapped the Marquis of Oss might be to let the evil spirit occupy the body of the Marquis of Oss, and act as the Marquis of Oss in the upper level of Britannia.
If all those who witnessed this were silenced at that time, then their plan would almost certainly succeed.
But the appearance of the mysterious man saved all the secret investigators who were present at that time, and this conspiracy was naturally broken. "
Alicia fell silent, and she remembered what the man said at the ball to return her favor.
At that time, she thought it was just what he said casually.
But think about it now
He may not have appeared there by accident, and he may not have kidnapped the Marquis of Oss.
He knew about this conspiracy early in the morning, and he waited there to destroy the conspiracy.
But why did he do all this?
With the power he possessed, it was impossible for those two hooligans to pose a threat to him, so there was no such thing as favor.
Or... the reason why he appeared there at that time was to get close to him on purpose?
His purpose is me?
Alicia pursed her lips lightly, leaving behind the increasingly complicated thoughts in her mind, and continued to ask.
"How did the Minister of the Interior handle it?"
"He didn't believe the report at first, and scolded Director Hagus, but now there are four secret inspectors lying in the hospital, these can't be fake.
Then, he went to the church and invited Bishop Bach, and they are still talking. "
"It's not surprising, these ghosts and ghosts can't get around the Holy See, but can they really solve this kind of thing?" Alicia murmured softly.
"Should be... okay?" the maid said with some uncertainty.
The history of the Holy See is much longer than that of Britannia, and its status in the hearts of Britannia is not ordinary.
"No matter how great a work of art is, it will eventually be tarnished by the years. The same is true for inheritance. Although the Holy See in Britannia still believes in the Supreme Lord, it cannot be said to be orthodox."
Alicia spoke calmly, she pondered for a moment, then continued.
"The lies woven with the sacred banner are also very easy to be convinced."
The maid tilted her head in doubt, she didn't quite understand what the imperial lady meant.
"If the Holy See can't handle it, then we can only rely on wizards."
Suddenly, the maid seemed to remember something, raised her head and said, "Speaking of which, have you heard of that rumor?"
