Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 246 The Murderer and the Black Emperor
The "Devil" sequence belongs to the "Criminal" pathway, Sequence 6, and Angel knows that the price of the main ingredients for Sequence 6 potions is more than 1500 pounds.

In other words, this piece of extraordinary properties that can be used as the main material of a complete potion will be worth more than 3000 pounds, of course, provided that someone understands its value.

This is different from the harvest that the two distributed in Kapin's mansion during the day. At that time, there were two extraordinary properties and a damaged extraordinary weapon. Although the value was not completely equal, it could be distributed roughly fairly.

This group of extraordinary characteristics cannot be divided into two pieces. If someone wants to take it away, he must give the other party 1500 pounds in cash or an extraordinary item of corresponding value. Otherwise, no one can guarantee that the other party will sell the characteristics after selling them. Hand over half of the proceeds obediently...

An awkward silence fell in the small, dark alley.

"I can still think of something with 150 pounds, but 1500 pounds is far beyond my financial resources. You have..."

After a long time, Moriarty asked.

"I do not have either."

Angel's current assets will exceed 1500 pounds, but if all of them are exchanged for this feature that he doesn't know when he can sell, he will be penniless.

So she denied it without hesitation.

As for other items that can be used as collateral, the "Magic Pocket Watch" is a highly practical magical item, and its value is no less than the extraordinary properties of this Sequence 6 piece. The "Ring of Madness" is also the guarantee for hiding her identity, and the "Secret Holy Emblem" "It is even more impossible to leave your body, the remaining ammunition, spells...

Wait, there is another item coming...

Angel suddenly thought of the "Crimson Eyes" she carried.

It comes from the dead "Rose Bishop" in the East District. It is also an extraordinary characteristic of Sequence 6. Although it is contaminated, as long as you can endure the negative effects for a short time, you can easily find any living creature within a radius of 50 meters through it. It is used in the city. Extremely broad.

Taking out the "Crimson Eye" in the box, Angel introduced its effect to Moriarty.

"Tainted Sequence 6 characteristics, this can be sold...well, maybe someone will really need it."

As he muttered, Moriarty seemed to think of the items he had bought for 400 pounds, and nodded slightly, agreeing with Angel's plan.

Then, he took out a copper coin in front of Angel and did a simple divination, confirming that the "Crimson Eyes" indeed belonged to the Sequence 6 characteristics.

"Then I will accept this eyeball first. If you can successfully sell the extraordinary characteristics of the 'Devil', you will exchange half of the proceeds for it. If..."

"If I disappear, it's yours."

Angel saw that Moriarty had no objection, so he lowered his head, picked up the "devil" with the characteristics of magma flowing inside, endured the hot touch, put it into the bullet box, and put it away carefully.

The latter took the "Crimson Eye" handed to him by Angel and immediately tried to touch the eyeballs. He frowned and endured the whispers in his ears. His eyes wandered, as if he was checking the living creatures around him consciously.

"It's true as you said, all the living creatures around can be easily captured... There are two people coming here on the street, they are probably the nearby patrol police."

Moriarty looked to the side of the alley, then quickly closed the iron box, put away the Crimson Eye, and said.

"Then let's leave quickly and split up. I'll take care of the scene... By the way, don't rush to sell the Beyonder properties you got this morning. Someone is investigating Kapin's death. They may pay close attention to those gatherings of Beyonders. .”

After Angel warned the other party, he summoned several black flames and began to "disinfect" the surrounding environment to avoid possible subsequent divination.

Moriarty lowered the peaked cap on his head and quickly left the alley, the sound of subtle footsteps gradually fading away.

Two minutes later, two policemen cautiously stepped into this alley that few people entered. The one in front held an oil lamp, and the one behind them was on guard with a gun.

They came after receiving a report from nearby residents. The other party claimed that there were intensive gunshots and huge explosions, as if two groups of gangs were fighting.

They saw the frost on the ground that had not yet melted away, the paving stones that had been blown away by the explosion, and the body of a huge black dog lying in the corner of the alley. ————

"The sun is strong and the smog has dispersed! The serial murder case was solved and the murderer was shot dead on the spot!"

The front page of "Backlund Morning News" used two big exclamation marks to express emotion on behalf of the entire Backlund citizens, celebrating that the dark cloud called "serial murder" that had been hanging over them for more than two months had finally lifted.

In a house in the Jowood District, Fors sat lazily on the sofa, holding an unlit cigarette and reading today's newspaper. He was not surprised by the result.

She herself is an Extraordinary hidden in the market. Of course, she is aware of the situation in Backlund in the past week. Official Extraordinaries have come out in droves, and the military and police have shown rare seriousness. In order to catch this murderer who is still on the loose and continues to commit crimes.

It is inevitable that the case will be solved quickly...

Turning the page, the second page showed another piece of shocking news.

"The thief 'Black Emperor' appeared in the Jowood area, and the controversial rich man Capin and his henchmen died at home."

The report was accompanied by a hand-drawn picture of a figure wearing black armor, a black crown on his head, and a black cloak on his back standing against the wind, with blazing flames at his feet.

Forsi, who was worrying about the subject of his new novel, was immediately attracted by this report and read it carefully.

The thief, who was named after the code name of the ruler of the ancient Solomon Empire, entered Kapin's villa in broad daylight, stole all the ill-gotten gains hidden in the safe, and ended the lives of Kapin and his criminal men. Also rescued many missing girls who were imprisoned in the basement of the villa.

Capin's body was covered with tarot cards, the most conspicuous of which were the "Judgment" and "Emperor" cards covering his face. The former undoubtedly represented the judgment imposed on the rich man who had bloody hands and kidnapped an innocent girl. , the latter is the source of the codename of this knight-errant.

Looking at the on-site reports described in an exaggerated tone, and looking at the hand-painted and majestic rogue "Black Emperor", Forsi's eyes gradually lit up. Countless ideas flashed through her mind, and she identified several of them. If you are interested, prepare to record them later, select carefully and enrich the details.

Her next bestseller may be born from it!
Just as she was brainstorming, the study door was pushed open, Xio walked in, and sat next to Forsi with a tired and confused look on his face.

"Hugh, what happened to you?"

Out of concern for his friend, Forsi put down the newspaper, held the cigarette in his hand, and asked.

"I received a mission from the 'Golden Mask' who sold me the 'Sheriff' formula last time. It asked me to investigate the death of Kapin. In the gathering of extraordinary people and in my channels, I was asked to find someone. Who ever asked about him.

"You should know, it's that human trafficker..."

Before Xio finished speaking, Forsi picked up the newspaper on the table and handed it to her.

The latter took it and took a quick glance, his expression became strange.

"I didn't expect that it was all in the newspapers, Tarot cards, 'The Trial' and 'The Black Emperor'. Ha, no wonder that guy also made me pay attention to the events involving Tarot cards in the past few years."

Putting down the newspaper, Xio sneered, seeming to be a little dissatisfied with the golden mask.

Forsi knew about the "Golden Mask". After this person sold the "Sheriff" formula to Xio, he also recruited her as a peripheral member to serve them.The two had analyzed that the other party probably belonged to a certain organization and even had some official connections.

"Incidents in recent years? Does he think this is not an isolated case, but someone has committed the crime repeatedly, or there is an organization..."

When she mentioned "organization", she suddenly froze.

Because, just this week, Forsi officially joined a secret organization called "Tarot Society", whose members use various tarot cards as their code names!
