Invincible priest, out of the courtroom

Deltina froze for a moment, opened her backpack helplessly, took out the portable telegraph, and muttered in a low voice:

"Didn't it be agreed that today is a holiday? There shouldn't be anything wrong, right?"

As a result, when she translated the telegram she received, she almost burst into tears.

"Woo...a vicious grave-digging case broke out in the city, I need to rush there immediately..."

=========

One more chapter first, there will be more later.

Thanks Elmer Da!Another salted fish stab from the boss

thank you very much!

The Undertaker: Chapter 78 77. How insane is this

"Ugh..."

Deltina was sitting in the taxi rushing to the cemetery, secretly wiping her tears several times, her face was a bit smudged.

For today's date, she woke up early, spent three hours dressing up, repeatedly choosing outfits, trying to present a perfect self to Luo Xia.

The itinerary for the whole day after that is also planned. Go shopping in the morning and show off your 'boyfriend' to those vulgar women in the mall; a luxurious lunch for two couples at noon; go to the theater in the afternoon to enjoy It's a romantic comedy, and tickets to the circus are also booked for the evening.

After all these are over, I will make further requests to Rorschach on the grounds that it is too late...

In this way, the relationship between the two can be completely settled, and you can start thinking about what school your child will go to in the future.

She arranged it very well, and the only worry was whether Rorschach would attend the appointment.

As a result, Luo Xia did not disappoint him, and came early, obviously he also valued himself very much.

On the contrary, I let him down again...

However, even so, Luo Xia did not abandon himself, but offered to accompany him to the cemetery as a partner.

Originally, Deltina could hold back her tears, but now she couldn't hold back anymore, and secretly wiped away her tears.

Rorschach, he is really... great!So gentle!So considerate!

He is my light!It's every girl's dream!It is a gift from Goddess Avia!

But, is a bad woman like me who can't even spare time for a date really qualified to possess him?

Deltina has even developed self-doubt...

And Luo Xia was sitting next to her, and when she saw her lowered head and depressed mood, she played the subjective initiative of a pastor, and comforted her:

"Cheer up, this case, I feel vaguely unusual..."

As he spoke, he pointed to a page of letter paper in his hand, on which was a telegram translated by Deltina later, giving a general description of the tomb robbery case.

"A total of more than 20 graves were dug up, the coffins were pried open, and the corpses were damaged to varying degrees. What kind of insanity is this! Is this a loss of morality or a distortion of human nature?"

Although this world doesn't pay much attention to the dead, at least it is safe in the ground. Generally, it will not disturb the dead. It is very taboo to dig graves and rob graves.

Even in a magical place like the city of oracles, everyone still maintains awe of death. No matter what happened to the deceased, no matter whether the funeral is a funeral or a happy one, they will always be held, and the priests will be specially recruited Hosting, I don't mean to just dig a hole and bury it.

If this is not the case, maybe the dead in the past will suddenly attack something...

Only cultists like to commit atrocities that disturb the dead, which in turn lead to various vicious incidents, so this case will be handed over to the investigation department Nine, and it will be taken very seriously, forcibly destroying Deltina's vacation.

And people like Luo Xia who came back from the dead and experienced death in person are even more in awe of death.

He will seriously preside over every funeral, and he will also take every figurine he has collected seriously. He will not play with it over and over again, but only think about how to color the figurines.

That's why when he knew it was a grave-digging case, he volunteered to come here with Deltina.

Seeing that Rorschach was very concerned about the case, Deltina put away her frustration and chatted about the case:

"Judging from the past case files of Jiuke, there are very few cases of this kind of tomb robbery and digging. There have been more than 100 cases in total, right? But each case is quite difficult, and the closing rate is very bad."

After hearing this, Rorschach grasped another important point:

"Huh? More than 100 cases are also called 'few'?"

"This is compared with other types of cases, and it still takes such a long time... Maybe it's because it's rare that I'm specially asked to handle it? Fortunately, you have Luo Xia with me..."

Deltina said helplessly and gratifiedly.

She could already clearly feel that Section Nine had some unusual respect for her, and her income and allowance were even a little higher than that of Lieutenant Colonel Kane, which was not the treatment a newcomer should have at all.

Soon, the taxi arrived at the cemetery, and Deltina took out her investigator's coat from the small satchel at her waist like a magic trick, and put it on, covering the beautiful purple dress.

Her beauty is only willing to bloom for Luo Xia alone.

Then, she took Luo Xia to find the policeman who had sealed off the scene, and after showing her ID, she chatted with him about the case.

Luo Xia listened silently by the side, while secretly developing inspiration.

Normally, he would restrain his inspiration in a place like the cemetery, and he would not use his spiritual vision to look around.

On the one hand, this is also a kind of awe of death, on the other hand, it is also to avoid "seeing" something that should not be seen, so as not to affect the mood.

That is to say, today's special situation makes an exception.

As a result, as soon as the inspiration came, it was found that the dead in several cemeteries were buried without comfort, and the dead souls were still lingering on the tombstones, with anxiety and unhappiness written all over their faces, as if they really wanted to find someone to fight.

This shows that the pastor in charge of the funeral is very unprofessional, I am afraid he is the kind of charlatan!

In addition, there are also some cemeteries where dead souls are wandering, but they are not unconsoled, but only half consoled...

For example, that gentleman, well dressed and wearing a silk top hat, was constantly looking at the pocket watch in his hand, looking a little anxious.

But all he has left is the upper body...

And two lines away from him, there is a man with a complete body but no head, who is shrugging his shoulders and spreading his hands in a helpless manner, as if he is a little confused?

This shows that the priest presiding over their funerals is not proficient enough in divine arts, and there are serious hidden dangers in their professionalism.

Luo Xia originally followed Deltina to investigate the case, but as soon as the inspiration came, he subconsciously focused on complaining about the professional level of his colleagues.

Later, it was Deltina who tugged at his arm and handed him the preliminary information collected by the police.

"A total of 24 people's graves were destroyed. Among them, the bodies of 3 people were burned, the bodies of 6 people were dismembered, and 2 people were cremated. The ashes were scattered on the tombstone next door..."

"The corpses of the remaining 13 people were not disturbed, but the coffin was used for graffiti, and all the funeral objects were stolen..."

"This is the list of 'victims' provided by the cemetery management office and the contact information of their relatives. You can see that the relatives of the 13 unopened coffins all live in the upper city, indicating that the economic conditions should be good, and the funeral must be decent. goods may have some value."

"So the police initially judged that this should be a simple case of tomb robbery..."

"Rorschach, what do you think?"

=======

Should there be more tonight?

Undertaker: Chapter 79 78. Am I a normal person trying to understand?

I'm just a pastor, what do you think?

Luo Xia was also a little speechless, and could only say based on his own experience:

"It's unlikely to be an ordinary tomb robbery. This is a cemetery. No matter how wealthy a family is, they will not bury many burial objects. With so much effort to dig up 24 tombs, at most they can find some gold and silver jewelry. If you have the strength to go to the dock Isn't carrying bags more profitable than this?"

He has presided over so many funerals, and there must be countless things his relatives will put in to be buried with him. Besides, this is a cemetery, and the graves are piled up in rows. I really want to dig out something valuable and draw cards with krypton gold. It seems that there is no guarantee.

Even if you are really poor and crazy and want to make a fortune by robbing tombs, you will definitely dig other nobles' private cemeteries instead of coming to this kind of place.

After hearing this, Deltina nodded in satisfaction, and replied:

"Yeah, we thought of going together, and I don't think it's an ordinary tomb robber, we are really a match made in heaven!"

"So is this some sort of cult ritual?"

Luo Xia stretched out his hand and rubbed his chin, thought about it seriously, and reconfirmed with inspiration, and finally shook his head.

"It's a bit like it, but it's not. It's too messy here, lacking the necessary sense of ritual, and it's impossible to form a ritual."

Deltina nodded, and did not question Rorschach's judgment as a professional, but said with a little distress:

"But if it wasn't for the cult ritual, things would have become more complicated...Could it be that the San Gallo Mental Hospital forgot to pay the guards again?"

"Let's go and have a look."

Rorschach suggested.

Deltina asked the cemetery management office for a map of the distribution of the tombs, which marked the location of the destroyed tombs with red circles, and went to check with Rorschach.

Luo Xia also took a closer look at the distribution map, and confirmed that the excavated tombs did not show any special distribution, there was no pattern, they were dug randomly.

I checked the list of 'victims' again, but I didn't see anything. Anyway, I don't have any impression of these names, so it shouldn't be the clients I took over.

However, of these destroyed tombs, only one of them still has dead souls lingering on it.

It was a very irritable old lady, several times fiercer than other lingering souls, her eyes were flushed with anger because of the destruction of the tomb, her body and limbs were also alienated in the direction of the monster, and her hands had become long A short jointed limb, with eight legs growing out of it, maybe what it will become in the end...

This is one of the reasons why [Funeral] and [Consolation] are very important.

Luo Xia led Deltina to bypass the old lady's tomb first, and went to look at the others. The two walked side by side in the quiet cemetery, with no distracting thoughts in their hearts, only thinking about the case, not thinking about it. A little date feel and vibe.

As long as you are a normal person, you will not date on the grave, right?

After walking around quickly, Rorschach found nothing, but Deltina looked down in thought, staring at a colorfully painted coffin, and took a while to look away.

"Tell me, are there any clues in these graffiti?"

Although the coffins were not destroyed, they were painted messily with paint, but they didn't form any specific patterns or anything, more like that kind of venting graffiti.

Luo Xia also looked over, and then tilted his head left and right, but still didn't see anything.

But Deltina didn't give up, but took out a notebook and wanted to trace these graffiti.

A total of 13 coffins were brutally graffitied, and she traced them all one by one, each stroke was very detailed, trying to restore the original state of these graffiti as much as possible.

Luo Xia didn't bother her, but just followed her patiently, silently watching the seriousness and focus on her face.

Such Deltina was really charming, and he didn't want to look away.

After more than two hours, almost at noon, Deltina finally put down the notebook, finished the drawing, and then checked the time.

"Shh~ it's already this time? I'm sorry Rorschach, I forgot the time... shall we go eat first?"

She said apologetically.

"It's ok."

Rorschach replied casually.

After a while, the two came to a fast food restaurant outside the cemetery, ordered some bread and chips at random, and then Deltina placed the thirteen pages of graffiti on the table and asked:

"Can they form something?"

She tried to piece the scribbles together.

"Maybe it's some kind of occult pattern, but it's best to find an expert in occultism to judge."

Rorschach replied.

He doesn't know much about occultism, even the most basic things like "love divination" and "fortune prediction".

"Well... I do know an expert in occultism, she is my high school classmate... But I haven't contacted her for many years, I don't know if she still remembers me..."

Deltina spoke casually, her hands didn't stop, and she continued to spell the graffiti, as if she wanted to try to find clues by herself first.

But just as she was randomly putting together the three graffiti, Luo Xia suddenly reached out and held her hand.

"Eh?"

Deltina was taken aback, her beautiful face flushed instantly.

"Don't move, I seem to have a little impression of this..."

Luo Xia said, let go of her hand, then took out the textbook, knocked on his forehead, and turned to one of the pages.

Sure enough, a somewhat similar pattern appeared on it.

This is a fragment of memory that Rorschach used the scriptures to look up his resume and then extracted from it.

He looked at the source of this memory in the scriptures again, and was stunned.

"This actually comes from... Mr. Clown's notes?"
