“So what should we do next?”
In the carriage, Joey, Burlau, and Lorenzo looked at each other, and then they couldn’t help covering their heads because of the deadlock in the case.
No one could answer Joey’s words, Lorenzo was silent. From the conversation just now, it can be known that Demon’s revenge can be any aristocrat who has hired a survivor. In this case, the target will be huge and uncountable. Lorenzo cannot visit every one. A nobleman, and time will not allow him to do this.
Lorenzo doesn’t care about the life and death of those nobles, he only cares about the source of the inferior secret blood, but now all this is like being trapped inside, and he has no clue.
“Can we find the Ed couple’s customers?”
“Basically not, they are not a boss like Hughes worthy of attention.”
Burlau shook the head. Although he controls the lower city district, he cannot monitor everyone’s life.
“But if the whole situation is magnified, I have an interesting news here. Before Hughes died, he was attacked by a group of people.”
Lorenzo raised his head slightly and motioned for Burlau to continue.
“Not all the survivors are so reluctant. Some people have united and tried to resist this injustice, and most of them did not come to Old Turin voluntarily, but were lured here. The Hughes smugglers treated them He promised a high salary, but after I got here, it was endless exploitation.”
Burlau continued.
“You should know the shrewdness of those businessmen. Although a large part of the survivors are free people, they are no different from slaves. They have signed unfair contracts under deceit and intimidation. They can only continue to work until the contract is completed. “
“Those people want revenge?”
“I just want to threaten Hughes to let them go back.”
Burlau shook the head and expressed regret.
“But how could they have fought Hughes… These interests are one overlap and one heavy. Even if Hughes wants to let them go, the nobles behind him can agree with it. This is already a deformed ecology, just like this deformed city. .”
Lorenzo was silent, his thoughts running fast.
“I have also released the news about these people’s deaths. If someone really has a guilty conscience, he will come to us.”
Joey said from the other side at this time.
Lorenzo shook the head, somewhat mockingly.
“No, you have seen Abel Baron’s attitude. In their opinion, the death of those people has nothing to do with them. They don’t even feel the so-called guilt…”
“This is the effect of hatred and class, Lorenzo, I know your dislike for those people, but in fact their behavior can be understood.”
Burlau said at this moment, he looked at Lorenzo, he was not ashamed of this behavior, but he could understand.
“Our hatred with the Galunalo people has lasted for too long. The 100-year-old Glorious War has engraved hatred into the blood of every Irvine person. Some people know that it is the hatred of their fathers, but some people still cannot Let go…”
“The hatred of the fathers continues to these survivors, right?” Lorenzo said.
Burlau nodded, then pointed to himself.
“Sometimes the interesting place is here. We are human beings, but some of our kind inside do not have independent thinking, with hatred of prejudice. In fact, this has nothing to do with them.”
Lorenzo was silent. He understood what Burlau meant. Sometimes the world is so interesting. It is clear that everyone is composed of skeletons and flesh and blood, but they are like no souls. Everyone walks forward and they walk forward. Everyone hates. They hate together.
Long sighed, Lorenzo said afterwards.
“At least we found some clues. Perhaps Demon is not taking revenge for a particular person. He is for the survivors as a whole. So the scope is reduced. Demon is likely to be a survivor, and no one will notice. His characteristics…”
Lorenzo remembered what happened when he inquired about Wall’s body in the hospital. At that time, the person who sealed the morgue with flames had characteristics similar to Demon, a profession that no one noticed, and a “ladder”. people.
“His profession must be very popular, at least wherever he appears will not be abrupt.”
“Continue searching according to these?”
“Now we can only do this. Time will tell us everything. It doesn’t matter if we can’t find the answer to the mystery in the end. That person can’t hold it. As long as your spy system doesn’t make any mistakes, he will be completely Demonized sooner or later. Find.”
Lorenzo said lightly, then looked towards Joey.
“Send me back, it looks like there will be no more results today.”
……
The changes in Old Turin’s day are not big. The sky is always gray, making people invisible. The afterglow of the setting sun burns the gray slightly, spreading from the end of the sky to the top of the head.
Pushing open the door, perhaps because today’s conversation is full of conflict and weight, Lorenzo can’t help feeling exhausted.
This World is like this. It is full of contradictions everywhere, and it seems that the so-called reconciliation will never be reached. Even the gods of Evangelion Church know all this, so they put the promised paradise on hold after death.
“Oh, he’s back.”
The sudden sound interrupted Lorenzo’s thoughts and raised his head. Mrs. Van Lude was sitting on the sofa in the living room with a happy face. The fire in the fireplace was burning, and the light reflected her cheeks like an old witch.
“what happened?”
Lorenzo curiously asked, it sounds like Mrs. Van Lude seems to be waiting for his return.
“You have a temporary assignment.”
The voice came from the other side, and Lorenzo turned around sharply, unaware that there was a person sitting by the door.
“Seleu?”
Lorenzo exclaimed.
The girl is nodded. She is wrapped in a thick coat and nestled on the sofa. The skirt corners are exposed from the pure white skirt under the heavy clothes. The edges are delicate lace and patterns. It seems that she is not used to high heels. She took off her shoes. The same white high heels are on the other side of the sofa.
“…So what’s wrong with this?”
Lorenzo took a deep breath, his voice a little helpless and tired, it felt like you had been working for a day, and as a result, there was a bigger trouble waiting for yourself after you got home.
“You still have an hour to clean up, hope you don’t embarrass the Stuarts.”
An old but heavy voice came from behind Lorenzo, it was Yahweh.
This old steward has a look of resentment. Lorenzo always feels like he has seen it somewhere… Oh, yes! It’s Phoenix Duke, this guy has the same expression and the same badness as Phoenix Duke.
“Wait, what’s the matter?”
It is rare that Yahweh took out a gun and pointed it at his head without meeting, but judging from his expression, he seemed to be in a bigger trouble.
Lorenzo’s brain turned quickly, he seemed to miss something, his gaze looked towards Seleu again, only to see that the cold girl was a little different from usual, and the cold face was a little more bloody… etc. When it was not bloody, she actually put on makeup.
The scattered pale-gold long hair was tied up, and exquisite jewelry was inserted on it. Pearls and silver chains were like a precious metal platter.
The detective of bad luck seemed to have guessed something, and before he could tell, Yahweh gave an answer.
“I hope this suit fits you. Of course it doesn’t fit and I hope you can stand it.”
Saying that Yahweh threw a set of clothes over, with a respectful look on his mouth, but judging from his manners and movements, he has no good intentions.
It’s an evening dress. Judging from the soft touch and exquisite hand-decoration, this thing can cover up to several months of rent.
“No…”
Lorenzo had never seen such a battle. He was speechless for a while, but soon more attendants walked over from behind the door and touched Lorenzo. They seemed to be very professional, even if they touched the trench coat. Winchester also face doesn’t change.
More people pressed Lorenzo on the chair, combed the hair that was squashed by the deerstalker, and sprayed skin care products on the vicissitudes of old face, hoping to make this hell guy in a short time. A little younger.
Seleu didn’t say anything, just with a cold smile. Although Lorenzo knew that this was how she would smile normally, it looked like a cold mockery now.
“Mr. Holmes, if there are no other candidates, I really don’t want to trouble you like this.”
Looking at Lorenzo surrounded by groups, Yahweh only started talking at a moderate pace.
Other options? Thinking of Seleu’s hell smile, Lorenzo guessed he was the only candidate on the list.
“So what are you doing?”
The strange perfume was sprayed on Lorenzo, and the nasal cavity was full of the intoxicating aroma. To be honest, Lorenzo didn’t like it very much. The smell would interfere with his judgment.
“I need a partner for a party.”
Seleu spoke slowly at this moment, squeezing his face with one hand, watching all this with interest.
Lorenzo looks like this is rare. In her desperate time with Lorenzo, she has seen Lorenzo in various ways, but now this embarrassment is not there.
“So don’t you think you should consult my opinion?”
The attendant tightened Lorenzo’s belt, and didn’t expect that the detective had gained a few pounds during this period.
“So what do you think of Mr. Holmes?”
Yahweh said.
Lorenzo turned his head, and then gave him a blank look. The huge revolver was pressing on his head right now, and these people didn’t even think about asking themselves.
“what……”
After hesitating for a while, Lorenzo has a somewhat humiliating head.
Yahweh patted his hand and said loudly.
“Come on, you still have an hour to dress up this wild dog so that it can be taken out.”
So the attendants stepped up their work and applied the expensive cosmetics to Lorenzo’s old face, which was suffering from the cold wind of Old Turin.
To be honest, Lorenzo is actually very young. Because of the secret blood, the physique of all Demon Hunter people has been strengthened. This kind of enhancement also comes with lifespan. In theory, Demon Hunter people can live to more than 200 years old, but because of the secret blood The reason for the fight, Demon Hunter people rarely end well.
Countless brushes swept across his face, and in the mirror on the side, the wild dog was shaved off his dirty hair, revealing the magnificence.
Looking at the young self in the mirror, Lorenzo suddenly remembered that he was also in the prime of his youth.
Lorenzo was born as an orphan. He did not know his specific age, but after being adopted by the church, the church set a unified life for them. The time of adoption was their birthday, and the age was determined according to the doctor’s estimation.
Lorenzo and other orphans from the very beginning were cultivated as Demon Hunter people, and Demon Hunter people are weapons, and weapons should not have their own thinking, so Lorenzo did not have a name at the beginning, just a line of numbers, at 17 years old After implanting secret blood, he has what is considered a name, or code name.
In this way, Lorenzo realized that it has been 8 years since he implanted secret blood, which means that he is now 25.
Looking at himself in the mirror Lorenzo for a while, he was a little embarrassed and regretful.
Since becoming a Demon Hunter, Lorenzo no longer has a normal life. Thinking about it this way, he still feels that there are several points of sadness, but Lorenzo quickly threw these thoughts behind his head and did not go away. Thinking of those bad things, after all, there is no need for people to have trouble with themselves.
“So why are you looking for me?”
Lorenzo asked, because these attendants had surrounded him tightly, and he was now talking to himself.
“Because there is no suitable candidate, this is a regular gathering between the nobles. Of course, another meaning is the alliance between the Great Family, which is related to my coming-of-age ceremony.”
Seleu’s voice came from the gap between the attendants.
“Don’t you have one month left?”
“Yes, but then I will go to Platinum Palace to inherit the title, and these people now want to have a good relationship with me in advance.”
Lorenzo seemed to think of something.
“The banquet you dropped that day was also like this?”
Seleu didn’t speak, but Lorenzo could think of her nodded face with cold face.
“Seleu Young Lady represents the entire Stuart group, and we don’t want to support any party in disputes between the nobility. We just want to maintain neutrality… at least temporarily neutral. No matter which group’s nobles are close to, the other party will be wary. , Even hostility, so the best way is to keep a distance from everyone.”
Yahweh’s voice slowly sounded, and it seemed that these nobles were also playing secretly.
“But there will always be people with bad intentions trying to get close. Instead of…”
“Why don’t you just find someone to attract firepower for the dead ghost?”
Lorenzo yelled, he knew what was going on.
No matter who Seleu looks for as a dance partner, it’s a statement. Stuart’s statement is that even if she sits and eats fruit, someone will lean on her. Instead of doing this, she’ll be the one who is not an aristocrat. Any statement, at best Seleu is close to the people.
What a good calculation, Lorenzo can already think of those people who can’t wait to tear his eyes alive.
