"Heart Banshee...the beautiful witch who wanders in the lower city, it is said that on bright moon nights, she will use her beauty to seduce passers-by and drunks, and eat the heart of the target in a place where no one is around.
The Shadow Butcher... whose body is unknown, who is characterized by wearing a loose black raincoat, and a bloody butcher knife in his hand...
The Sleepless Man...the weirdo who wanders the night...
The lake monster of the ancient Rhine River... It is very popular around the pier. It is said that one person can fight twenty fierce men at the same time. "
Celesia placed the urban legends of the lower city that she investigated that night, those vague photos, and vague information, one by one, on the table in front of Viscount Gu En, with a hint of sarcasm at the corner of her mouth said:
"The urban rumors in the downtown area are really incredible. You obviously only asked you to check the heart-throwing banshee, but so many weird things popped up all at once.
Viscount Gu En, when you go down to the city, it seems to be more lively at night. "
"Is there...is there?"
Viscount Gu En wiped his sweat, but his body couldn't help shaking:
"It's all just rumors. Most of them just come from rumors that seem to have nothing. It can't explain anything, hehe...it can't explain anything."
"Is that so? Are the recent reports of missing people in the lower city also rumors?"
Celesia threw another piece of information on the table, which contained reports on the surge of kidnapping, trafficking, and even human-to-human transactions in the lower urban area in the past month.
"This……"
Looking at the information, Viscount Gu En's face turned pale instantly, and he could only force an ugly smile:
"There is no actual evidence yet..."
"People are missing, of course there is no evidence."
"There are so many people in the lower city..."
"Viscount Gu En, don't you want to say that there are so many people in the lower city, it doesn't matter if a few are missing?"
Celesia's eyes suddenly turned cold.
"No, no, no... Of course not. I just want to say that there are too many people, and the investigation is difficult. Moreover, it's only been two days. Even if you are in a hurry, Your Highness, you can't find anything in two days."
Viscount Gu En was already weeping a little. Under the terrible pressure emanating from the girl, he wished he could just kneel down.
It's a pity that the space in the carriage is too small, and if he makes a slight movement, he will be suspected of offending.
"It's difficult, but you have to investigate, right?"
Celesia lowered her eyes, ignored the frightened man in front of her, and read other materials.
She didn't come to inquire about the crime at all, and she didn't bother to inquire about the crime.
The chaotic situation in the lower city involves many aspects, and it is not something that a mere Viscount can solve.
Rather, he was able to sit in this position only because he was pushed up by those "kind-hearted" elders above so that he could take the blame.
Otherwise, how could he, a mere viscount, be able to sit in such an important position as the governor of the lower city.
"One or two, really can't help anything."
Celesia sighed softly and couldn't help rubbing her temples.
The son of the dead earl.
Weird and indistinguishable urban rumors.
Frequent cases of missing persons.
In the current lower city, it seemed that unimaginable darkness was gradually brewing, which made her, the third princess of the empire who could mobilize a lot of power, feel a little tricky.
The most important thing, in this matter, she felt that those high-level officials in the empire who really held power seemed a little too calm.
No matter how much they look down on the lower city, this is Bellerand after all.
Once something erupts here, it is likely to be like a flame, gradually burning towards a higher place, and no one can be alone.
At that time, it is really irreparable.
"Or... is there something more important that involves their energy, forcing them to have no time to even care about their own feet?"
Celicia suddenly recalled the evil god's invasion of the academy not long ago. If you talk about these two things... no, if you say this is one thing in itself...
The horror of this incident may have far exceeded her expectations.
"It's really interesting. The death of an earl's son has caused so many troubles."
Celicia's slender fingers subconsciously tapped on the window sill, feeling the emptiness in her brain caused by overthinking, and she couldn't help but miss the coffee with a lot of sugar cubes in the student union room.
At least, it can add a lot of sugar to her, and it's delicious.
But now I don't have time to think about it that much.
Even if Bellerand might really be facing any crisis now, he still has a tall man to bear it. Since the emperor didn't say anything, it means that she doesn't need the help of her daughter who is still studying in the academy.
The most important thing for her now is to find the murderer who killed Tyke Rhodes. Otherwise, if the earl makes a fuss, it will be a trouble for both the academy and her.
"Let's stop here tonight, Viscount Gu En." Feeling that she could no longer collect any useful information, Celesia got up and was about to leave.
"Hey, is Your Highness leaving? Shall I see you off?"
"no need."
Celesia rejected Viscount Gu En who was about to move with her eyes, opened the curtain by herself, and walked out.
Knowing that it was not in line with etiquette, Viscount Gu En, whose legs were already weak from fright, could only poke out half of his embarrassed face from the window of the carriage, and squeezed out an ugly smile:
"Go slowly, Your Highness, be careful on the road."
Celesia ignored him.
Straight into the shadows.
The mist in the night stirred a bit, and a man in a black windbreaker appeared in front of Celesia at some point.
The man's complexion was as pale as he hadn't seen the sun for a long time, and on the chest of his windbreaker, the strange badge shone coldly under the moonlight.
The pattern on the badge is a dagger-like sharp finger gently placed in front of the black lips, which represents absolute silence.
reticent.
Celesia recognized the man's identity at a glance, and was not surprised by his arrival.
"The results of the analysis have come out."
The man faced Celesia, but he didn't show too much respect, and said blankly, "Those are indeed the scales of the snake man."
"So the one who killed Tyke Rhodes was indeed an evil believer who believed in the moon?"
"no doubt."
The man said: "The rumored heart-piercing banshee is most likely a snake-man. The snake-man has an instinctive desire for the heart of the opposite sex."
"Can you catch it?"
"It's very difficult. In fact, we were planning to capture the heart-pumping banshee half a year ago, but she was very cautious, and she escaped several times, and she stopped her activities suddenly two months ago, which made The difficulty of our operation has further increased."
"Two months?"
Celesia's eyes dimmed slightly.
Maybe she was too sensitive, but this time... just happened to be the day when the academy started.
"So, in the end, there's still no progress?"
"No, actually, we got this..."
The man suddenly took out a sealed metal box.
The box looked very heavy, with magic patterns engraved on it, and Celesia recognized that it was an extremely powerful sealing magic.
Seeing that the man was so solemn, Celicia's complexion couldn't help becoming dignified.
After complicated authentication, the box was finally opened, revealing... a letter inside.
Celesia froze at the corner of her mouth, "What is this?"
"As His Highness has seen, this is a letter."
The man put on gloves made of mithril and picked up the envelope: "Five hours ago, it was delivered to the mailbox of one of our branches by a postman."
"……Any questions?"
"Problem number one, that branch never sent any letters, never received any letters.
Question two, there is still no clue about the sender of the letter. The postman has no memory of delivering the letter to that branch.
Question [-], Your Highness will know it after reading it. "
The man handed over the letter, and Celesia was silent for a moment, still with a thin layer of frost on her hand, before taking the envelope.
turn on.
Nothing happened.
Celesia quickly scanned the contents.
Then her willow eyebrows subconsciously raised.
"This turned out to be a report letter? And the object of the report is..."
"That's right, that's why I came to His Highness." The man said: "As a student of Santa Maria, I think His Highness should be able to guess something, at least, we need to know whether this report letter is true. "
"It's really unreal, don't you know when you find someone?"
Celesia thought for a moment, then suddenly raised her hand and hooked her fingers.
Suddenly there was the sound of flapping wings in the sky, and a white dove flew from nowhere and landed on her arm.
"Find someone for me." Celesia said coldly.
"Who." Bai Ge spit out.
"Anna Capelin."
……
……
"Has our bait been cast?"
Two figures, one tall and one short, stood on the empty and quiet street, looking up at the bright moon above the sky.
The moon that has just experienced a full moon is still so round and so bright, but there is a little dark shadow at the corner of the arc, which makes her not so perfect.
But these two figures are still deeply immersed in the cold beauty of the moon, unable to extricate themselves.
Until that slightly shorter figure asked.
The taller figure didn't say anything, he seemed to be chewing something, crunching, crunching, non-stop.
"Ah, that's it, is it finished?"
The slightly shorter figure seemed to have received an answer. She raised her hands, as if to embrace the moon. The beautifully curved body outlined by the tight leather jacket was like a snake, enchanting and moving.
"So... let's get started."
The slightly shorter figure wriggled, with a solemn and fanatical tone, as if dancing a strange dance, or reciting a poem affectionately.
"Oh, moon, please shine on me."
"I will tear away all the hypocrisy in this world and bring the great truth to the world."
"I will watch your coming and bring the supreme gospel to this world."
"I will cast your new divine body with coldness and death, and those blood and hatred will become the shining jewels on your crown."
"I will end up in your divine kingdom and live forever!"
At the end of the ceremony, the slightly shorter figure lowered his head again.
Her face is alluring, and every frown and smile is intriguing.
