Alien paradise

Chapter 43 An unexpected discovery

The woman's frivolous tone and exaggerated clothes made Sandra subconsciously feel repelled, but in front of the lord, she still resisted her impatience and reached out to shake hands with him. That hand was so thin that you could feel almost every bone, and its body temperature was frighteningly cold.

This was not the first time she had dealt with the priests of the Shenmei Cult.

But this was the first time she had seen such a priest.

"Despite her young age, Miss Gewei is also a master-level cleric in terms of strength." Li Qiang introduced with a smile, "What's more important is that she has the talent to manipulate arcane artifacts, and she will definitely be able to help you in dealing with cultists." Help. She came here not long ago from the Old Continent and is not very familiar with Glory Castle. Please pay more attention to her on weekdays."

Although he was unhappy in his heart, the lord said that for this reason, it would be disrespectful to refuse him any more. Sandra could only respond, "I'll do my best."

Returning to the Observation Tower, Sandra closed the door and looked at the priestess of the Divine Mechanism who was scanning her office with interest. Act according to instructions, do you understand?"

"We seem to have a cooperative relationship, rather than a superior-subordinate relationship, right?" Gawei took off the cross behind him. When it fell to the ground, the wooden floor creaked and whined. It was obvious that the thing was quite heavy. "If you are worried that I will take away the credit of the city guards, then you don't have to, because I have only one purpose, and that is to eliminate the cultists."

"Everything we do should be organized and disciplined. This is also the fundamental guarantee for exerting our greatest strength!"

"Pfft." Gewei couldn't help laughing.

"Why are you laughing?" Sandra asked coldly.

"Nothing... I just want to ask your Excellency, Commander, have you ever fought against a cultist?"

"I graduated from the Capital Military Academy and also went to the battlefield with the army——"

"So you haven't really faced the cultists directly." Gewei interrupted her directly, "I'm sorry, maybe your grades are outstanding and your command skills are quite good, but with all due respect, in front of the real cultists, None of this makes much sense. When faced with unimaginable fear, a person will collapse faster than he expected. Your so-called organization and discipline are only a little bit tougher than a piece of toilet paper. "

Sandra's eyes were sharp, but the other party didn't care. There was still a faint smile on her face, as if she didn't realize that she was insulting the entire city guard.

If she hadn't been introduced by the count, Sandra would have kicked her out of the office long ago.

"...Since Miss Priest said so confidently, she must be quite experienced in dealing with cultists? Could you please tell me, what do you need to fight against cultists?"

"crazy."

"What?" Sandra wondered if she heard correctly.

The woman giggled, "It's crazy! Only by being crazier than them can you not be led by fear and maintain that trace of will! Of course, if you really go crazy, there is nothing you can do about it... Hahahaha... "

By the end, she was laughing unbridled.

Can such a person also be a priest?

Sandra looked at the other party in disbelief. Is there something wrong within the Divine Machine Religion?

"Sir, this is..." Woody walked into the office holding a stack of files and saw Gewei in a daze.

"Priests of the Shenji Cult are assisting us in investigating this case." Sandra coughed twice, "Okay, I can refer to your experience. You can go downstairs and wait. If you want to know more about the details of the case, If so, I can also ask my subordinates to give the information..."

"No need, you just need to find out the identity or whereabouts of the cultists and then tell me." Gewei put her cross on her back again and walked out of the room with brisk steps.

"She is a church priest?" Woody looked surprised.

"How can the introduction by Lord Earl be false?" Sandra returned to the desk angrily and sat down, "Let me tell you the results of your investigation first."

"Yes, I have checked all the people illegally imprisoned in Wangshui Manor, and most of them are slave laborers." Woody quickly spread out the files in his hand on the table one by one, "Their experiences are quite simple, Director Kuiqi... ...Well, the murderer Kuiqi probably just wanted to catch them for a simple and convenient reason."

Triton aliens, slave workers... these two things really belong to the lowest level of Glory Castle, no one will care even if they die in the gutter.

It's not that Brilliant Castle openly encourages slavery, it's just that it's not banned as thoroughly as in the Old World. After all, development requires a lot of labor, and not everyone likes to come to such a relatively desolate and dangerous place, so the superiors turned a blind eye to the company's practices.

Anyway, there are wealthy Tritonians in the Brilliant Castle.

But Sandra knew in her heart that these were not things that could be put on the table, but she didn't expect that the person in charge of the city's north police station could be so crazy and crazy that he directly played a bloody game in the city.

“Do these slave laborers... have anything in common besides their identity?”

Woody said he couldn't understand, "We are all slave laborers, do we still need something in common?"

Sandela sighed. Although she didn't like the priests of the God Machine Cult, she did feel an aggressive spirit from him - that was the self-confidence brought about by many experiences, and it was also the basis for people like them to be good at taking initiative. . She rarely saw such vigor in her subordinates.

Although they are loyal, perhaps their ability is still lacking a little bit.

"Take a closer look. These people are not old, weak, sick or disabled. They are between 15 and 30 years old, with sound hands and feet. They are the labor force that the factory needs most. If it is just to satisfy that criminal desire, Kuiqi does not need to arrest these people. People go to jail.”

Woody suddenly realized, "You make sense..."

"You and I both know that cultists don't come for no reason. They are more like flies, only biting eggs with cracks." Sandra combined the files of these Tritons and made a piece of them. "Now we can't rule out that they are these. Slave labor may attract cultists. They should all be in the medical camp now, right?"

"Yes, I arranged for someone to keep a close eye on it."

"Well, you can ask questions later, one by one." She paused here and added, "Don't use the interrogation method. Don't forget, they are the victims of this case. .”

Seeing Woody agree, Sandra turned her attention to the remaining files. There are relatively few of them, and most of them are mercenaries, detectives, and reporters, and all of them have a bright red mark under their names: "Dead."

"Their information was all searched out from Kuiqi's bedroom, so we can't rule out the omissions." Woody took the initiative to explain, "We have compared previous serial murder cases, and we are basically certain that they are all execution targets." 1. However, this time due to the fire in the theater, many bodies were burned beyond recognition, and we cannot confirm which group of deceased they belong to. In addition..."

He hesitated to speak.

"you say."

"The families of the police officers in Chengbei Police Station have been in a lot of trouble these days. They don't believe that their family members would do such a heinous thing and think that someone must be responsible for their deaths." Woody lowered his voice and said, " If we insist on classifying these police officers as Kuiqi's accomplices, I am afraid we will suffer considerable pressure from public opinion."

This pressure will obviously also have a negative impact on the City Guards taking over the functions of the police station.

Sandra was silent for a while, "I understand. I will consider the wording in the closing report."

Woody immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

For some reason, she felt her heart felt heavy again.

In this speechless atmosphere, Sandra suddenly noticed a name half hidden among the layers of paper: Court Dann.

It seemed like she had heard of this person somewhere before...

Sandela pulled out the file, pondered for a moment, and soon found the relevant content in her memory.

By the way...three weeks ago, someone stopped her on the street and begged her loudly for help. However, at that time, she thought that the person was suffering from a serious illness and sought medical treatment, so she ignored him.

What the man shouted was the name Court Dann.
