The cold-faced earl doesn't want to trigger the plot

Listening to Ewenna's words, Lin thought for a while, and then remembered that the "thing that can't be found" that Ewenna referred to was probably Lysa's broken arm.

Lin, who was always inseparable from Erhard, the straightforward leader of the Knights, was obviously not used to Ywenna's somewhat literary style of speaking.

"Then today, shouldn't it be better to stop the things here temporarily and go back to the mansion to meet your sister?"

"No, no need."

Evanna breathed a sigh of relief,

"Even if I go back and see Sister Lysa, I don't know what to say. An apology should be necessary. However, no matter how much I apologize, I can't make up for it. Besides, Sister Lysa probably doesn't want to see me helpless. Xie kept apologizing endlessly. What's more, this side is more important."

"..."

Lin, who didn't know how to respond, fell into silence.

It was precisely because of the inexplicable awkwardness that Ewenna often displayed.Jean Lin didn't realize until recently that she might not be a particularly strange person.

Of course, Lin still agreed with Ewenna's last sentence.

During this period of time, they have been looking for information about the "Dismemberer" near Ywenna's former residence.And, the main focus is on the bar that Ewenna's father often went to when he was alive.

At first, I found a lot of information in that bar.

For example, there are indeed several regulars in the bar who suddenly stopped coming to the bar since about four years ago.The owner of the bar is actually changing frequently and so on.

However, at the end of the investigation, they discovered that everything was just a coincidence.

The bar is totally the wrong direction to investigate.

It can only be said that it is not an ordinary difficulty to investigate a case that has been covered in dust for many years.

"Where are we going to investigate today?"

"It's still the chamber of commerce."

Evanna replied,

"In the past years, my father rarely went out to buy daily necessities. Basically, several chambers of commerce delivered the goods to the home regularly. Therefore, the people in the chamber of commerce also fit Mr. Riber and the detective. The 'Dismemberer' and its companions speculate. It is natural to lurk around us."

Lin nodded, and followed Ewenna out of the temporary residence.

...

...

Not long after, the two of them made a general probe in several joint chambers of commerce, but did not get much useful information.

In itself, Evanna was still young at the time.In addition to the delivery, it basically happened when Ewenna was studying at the college during the day, so she was not familiar with those deliverymen.I can only recall with difficulty the names of a few merchants.

In this world without trademarks, the names of various shops are mostly similar, or even identical.

So, Yiwenna, who was sighing at the entrance of the Chamber of Commerce, only felt that she had moved from one sea to another to find a needle.

While Ewenna was thinking hard about past information, Lin on the other side bought a newspaper.

In itself, this behavior is normal, but the special thing is that Lin bought the Pioneer Daily a few days ago.Moreover, she has bought at least five copies of the Pioneer Daily on the same date.

This time, after buying the same newspaper again, Lin stared at a section of the Pioneer Daily in a daze as before.On that page, there was a photo of Riber wearing a mask and posing for a photo on the night of the dark night.

Regarding what kind of emotion Lin is staring at Riber's photo, Ewenna has no idea.

If it was said that Lin had a good impression of the Earl, Ewenna felt that her expression was a bit too serious.

Before I knew it, it was noon.

After buying some food at a roadside stall, Ewenna fed her stomach in a perfunctory manner, and continued to concentrate on searching for traces of the past.

Until, she came to a building.

Looking at the somewhat old but still majestic building in front of her, Ewenna fell into a short memory.

What looks like a church is actually a college.

Evanna studied in this college for nearly ten years until she was admitted to Greenwater School of Medicine.

Evanna doesn't have any special memories of the academy itself.

Although, she had basically forgotten about the things in the small town of Aurette when she came to Greenwater City when she was young.However, perhaps it was the remnants of those experiences that gave her a rather mature personality early on.

Moreover, she dreamed of curing her father's leg since she was a child, and devoted all her energy to her studies, so she didn't even have a friend in the academy.

The only thing that left a deep impression on me was that every morning and after school, her father used his extremely inconvenient leg to pick her up and send her to the college regardless of the weather...

and many more!

Suddenly, Ewenna seemed to have a flash of electricity in her mind.

She opened her eyes wide, staring straight at the half-abandoned college building in front of her, her body trembling slightly.

This is it!

If the "Dismemberer" and his companions were lurking in this academy at that time.

Then there is no need for them to monitor her and her father at all?

Because, except for rest days, she and her father would automatically appear in front of each other almost every day...

Moreover, if something special happened about four years ago, there was no reason for her and her father to appear in front of the "dismemberer", and the other party had to send letters to maintain this torture.

Isn't it her graduation?

She was admitted to Greenwater Medical College, and she and her father had no reason to come here.

With an expression of disbelief, Ewenna turned to face Lin who was not far away.

"Miss Lin, maybe we don't need to investigate those merchants anymore..."

...

...

the next day.

In Riber's mansion.

In the early morning, when Riber walked down the second floor, he saw that "All Star" was already waiting for him to have a meeting.

Chris, Evanna.

Lin, Bridget.

And Erhard...

That's right, Ribel is arranged according to the strength of the light.

Count Alice and Lysa elsewhere in the mansion.For the first time, Riber noticed that he had unknowingly gathered so many people who could shine.

Of course, if he wanted to, he could also bring Nero, Seid, and Master Grofell into the mansion.

If you do this, it will undoubtedly make this mansion even more shiny, making it the place with the most serious light pollution in the city...

In addition to these light sources, there are actually people like the heresy interrogator of the Church of Everything, the staff of the Adventure Guild, and Sebastian in the room.

However, under the cover of the light, Riber could no longer see them clearly...

When everyone gathered together, something extraordinary happened naturally.

After a short greeting, and Riber drank a cup of tea by the way, the parties who reached a cooperative relationship began to come up with the latest information they had obtained.

The first is the Knights side.

The person in charge of the commentary is Chris who likes to explain.

Chris first briefly explained that under the "prompt of Mr. Riber", they have almost caught the tail of the "artist".

Although "artist" has been hidden very deeply in the past.But as long as he lives in this world, he is doomed to be impossible to leave no trace.

Rather, for a person who can really achieve that level, even if he is alive, he is no different from death.

It's just that the "artist" probably never dreamed of it.The reason why he was caught with clues was only because he wanted everyone in the world to admire his unique "art" on a whim.Then, it fell on the inexplicable little character Grofell.

Among the several strongholds of the "artist" that the Knights found by following the clues, there are still a lot of things related to him.Therefore, it is no longer impossible to find this "emperor" of the underground world.

And the existence of "artists" was just an appetizer at this meeting.

Next, what Chris said made everyone fall into shock.

After sorting out the life trajectories of some serial killers who had titles and were basically identified as mysterious organizations, he found a common point.

That is, they had more or less contact with some churches when they lived around Greenwater City as relatively ordinary people before they became serial killers.

In itself, there is nothing strange about this.

Because what this continent lacks most is all kinds of gods and churches.

However, after listing these churches or church-related figures, an amazing coincidence appeared.

That is, these churches are similar to the existence of sub-churches of the Bright Church in Greenwater City, or they are close cooperative churches.

Moreover, the former staff of the Illuminati Church lived near the residences of several serial killers who were not believers at all.

Combined with the events in the small town of Aurette, the appearance of the "Dismemberers" coincides with the month of the church's missionary mission.People from the Church of Light are also among the ranks of these pilgrims.

Then contact the "dismembered" case.

Ywenna's biological father was in charge of receiving these church personnel at that time.Then, father and daughter live with these church personnel on weekdays.

Therefore, if the prisoner was really a member of the Illuminati Church, then he had ample opportunity and time to "brainwash" the father and daughter...

In the case where all the signs are consistent, even if everyone is unwilling to believe it, the suspiciousness of the Church of Light is beyond doubt.

Under such circumstances, Ewenna provided more critical information.

She believed that the "Dismemberer" and his accomplices had been hiding in the college she studied in the past years.

Then, almost all the teachers in that college are served by nuns and priests.

Moreover, most of these nuns and priests are from the Church of Light...

There is one more thing that Ewenna and Chris found after exchanging clues in the knight order.

That is, since the college entered a semi-abandoned state three years ago, the teachers in it have been transferred to other schools.

One of the nuns of the Church of Light retired due to illness about a year ago and is recuperating in the Cathedral of Light.And the capable Greenwater Medical School team, which has repeatedly assisted, deduced from the various symptoms that the nun had shown this year that the nun was suffering from a terminal illness and was already at the stage of dying.

"What's the name of that nun?"

Riber, who suddenly realized something, looked solemn, and couldn't help interrupting the conversation between the venues and asked hastily.

"Grace."

Nun Grace!

Riber's heart shook violently, and he couldn't help turning his gaze to Sebas who was aside.

And Sebastian also had drops of sweat appearing on his forehead, showing an expression of disbelief.

This nun, Grace, was exactly what Riber and Alice met when they went to the Cathedral of Light in Greenwater City to seek the blessing of the God of Light.An elderly nun who served as Alice's teacher.

At the time, because the nun was somehow radiating an important supporting role, and she taught Alice some weird words.So, just to be on the safe side, Riber asked Sebas to investigate the nun and the students who used to be in the same group as Alice.

Since Sebastian didn't find out any special problems, this matter was shelved in Ribel's mind.He also only sees Grace as an important character in Alice's original plot line.

But now, that nun is about to die.Moreover, the current Alice is far from growing up to the age at which she can change the light of the protagonist from dim to bright, and become a character that can be attacked.

That... that is to say...

"That's the man!"

Riber concluded decisively.

"She is the leader of the mysterious organization. The 'mother' who drives many serial killers crazy!"

Volume Two: Chapter 140 Three, The Sound of Bugs

In the afternoon of this day, the relevant personnel gathered in the knight order and started the arrest plan for Sister Grace codenamed "Mother".

As the leader of this plan, Erhard, the leader of the Greenwater Knights, rarely showed a trace of uneasiness.It's just that this uneasiness is not obvious, and it's not a shrinking that anyone can see.Rather, it is closer to the time of being in a daze, and the reaction speed decreases a little, similar to a tense situation.

In fact, Erhard cannot be blamed for this.But even though she has been the head of the Knights in Greenwater City for so many years, it is still the first time she has encountered such a situation.

Generally speaking, after the Knights met the murderer, Erhard, as the head of the Knights, only needed to issue orders.When encountering more difficult criminals, Erhard specially selected the elites of the knight order and ordered the establishment of a special team.At the worst time, it was only Erhard who shot himself and killed him directly... The murderer was captured, and it was over.

But this time is different.

The opponent of the Knights is an entire organization.
