13 Mink Street

Standing at the door, Karen couldn't help feeling a little emotional when he heard the laughter of the grandpa and grandson inside.

The family suddenly encountered such a terrible change. As the head of the family, Walfren was undoubtedly the hardest hit; but at this time, he still chose to put aside all anger and grief, and try to comfort his only remaining child. grandson.

The dead person is already dead, and he hopes that the living person will not feel guilty.

If there is no consolation like Wo Fulun, Leon will sink into the quagmire of self-blame and shame for the rest of his life, lying in the snack shop by himself on the night when his family was wiped out.

Not everyone can have such a terrifying psychological quality as Neo. In fact, even Neo, he is always looking for a reason to live.

Put yourself in another place, if you were Walforon, would you do this?

Karen thinks he won't, he will fall into madness, hatred will overwhelm his reason, it is impossible for him to lower his head and use a soothing tone to smooth the huge lump in his grandson's heart, he cares not on.

This is probably the gap. I am still far away from people like Wo Fulun.

Techniques can be learned quickly, formations can be understood quickly, and realms can be improved quickly, but in life, there are always some things that must rely on time to thicken, or called...precipitation.

"Captain Karen..."

Karen heard Walvron's voice calling to him inside.

"Yes, Chief Sir."

Karen saluted at the door first, then walked in, looked at Leon who was kneeling beside the bed and holding Walforen's hand, hesitated for a while, but still did not choose a kneeling position that was convenient for communication.

It's not that he still minds kneeling at this moment, because the chief called his position, which means that the old man wants to use an official posture to talk to himself.

"I know...you took Leon into the team because of my face..."

Karen acquiesced, and it would be meaningless to talk about scenes at this time.

"My grandson... I can see clearly... he's still excellent... The shortcoming is that his personality is a bit soft... But it's not his fault... It's just that the family conditions are too good... There's nothing we can do about it.

But his character is still trustworthy, right? "

Karen responded, "Yes, you're right."

"Help me a little... take care of him."

"I will."

"Thanks……"

"That's my job as captain."

Wo Fulun lowered his head again, looked at his grandson, and asked:

"obedient……"

"I'll be obedient, Grandpa."

"Listen to your captain..."

"I will, I will."

Walforon nodded.

In fact, he didn't need to make arrangements for Leon's future. Although almost all members of the Dierga family were dead, they were different from the Naton family that was destroyed before. The Naton family was trampled to death during the political struggle; The situation in Bian is the same. He was dragged down by the "conservative" teacher, became the object of suppression, and became a victim under the wind vane.

On the other hand, Wolveren's Dilga family suffered huge losses due to an accident against the Cult of Kosmos. At least for now, there is no evidence that the assassination originated from a "vendetta." Therefore, the Religion will definitely compensate and give Leon preferential treatment.

It's just that Wo Fulun himself is very clear that without the support of the family, Leon's future development will be smooth, but it will be difficult to shine. No matter how much preferential treatment and care, it is impossible to compare with a complete family behind him. support.

If he wants to expand the upper limit for his grandson's future development, he can only rely on Karen, a small group. The chief lord has always been very optimistic about the future development of this small group, otherwise he would not let his grandson join.

Of course, his arrangement is not for the revival of the family, because he knows that if his grandson has nothing to do next, he will not have that kind of opportunity to climb up, even if it is the kind that takes a lot of risks, but let him be in a If he is raised in a leisurely and generous location, his grandson will definitely be tortured, and even go crazy.

At this time, Minister Bernie appeared at the door again. Obviously, the priest and priest who had left earlier went down and called him.

"Minister Bernie... I'm ready."

Bernie persuaded: "Soon, the task force from the Dingle District will come, accompanied by the top pastors from the Dingle District. I think you can wait a little longer. After all, you are hopeful that you will be cured now."

"The treatment is good... It means lying in bed for a few years... It's meaningless... I'm willing to burn my life... For a month... Ahem... One month... Come on... Minister Bernie."

"Okay, I will follow your will." Bernie looked at Leon and Karen, "Go out first."

Leon was still unwilling to leave, but Karen came over and patted him on the shoulder. Leon stood up and followed Karen out of the room.

After standing outside, Leon took a deep breath, wiped his face with his cuff by the way, forced a smile, and then laughed twice to himself:

"Heh...heh..."

Philomena next to her felt that Leon's laughter was worse than her grandma's original laughter.

After Leon finished laughing, he said, "Thanks to Richard for taking me to the snack shop tonight, otherwise I should have become a fixed corpse now, and I would have no chance to track down the murderer and avenge my family." .”

Karen patted Leon's shoulder and said nothing.

In fact, from Leon's point of view, or from the point of view of normal human nature, it is normal to shirk responsibility and find a point of transfer of hatred, such as blaming Richard.

But Leon didn't do this, his mind was still very clear, although he lost control of his emotions during the blow, but he didn't sink in the blow.

As Bishop Wofulen said, his grandson is still trustworthy. When he knew that Karen was the target of his fiancée's gossip, he was not angry with Karen but continued to invite Karen between meetings. Eat and drink secretly.

It's just that Karen can't comfort him too much now. The murderer entered the chief bishop's house and almost killed all the family members. Although the chief bishop survived successfully, he also suffered irreversible serious injuries...

It is no longer as simple as pulling the whole team to help you find a place to take revenge if you have been wronged or you have an enemy.

"Captain, I want to go out to get some air first." Leon said, "I'm a little suffocated here."

"Philomena."

Karen pointed to Philomena and pointed to her mouth at the same time, indicating that she was just accompanying and had to shut up.

Just like that, Philomena supported Leon's arm with one hand, and led him down the stairs. It wasn't that Leon couldn't walk anymore, but that he closed his eyes the whole time.

He walked up once, and because he walked up once, he didn't have the courage to walk down again with his eyes open.

Karen sighed. It seemed that after this incident passed, I should pay more attention to his mental state.

Next, Karen began to walk slowly, stopping to take a closer look at each corpse scene as he passed.

The corpses of two servants nailed to the wall at the door of the study, the corpse of Uncle Leon sitting on a chair in the study, the corpse of Grandma Leon in front of the French window, and the corpse of Leon’s mother at the corner of the stairs, before these corpses, Karen stopped for a while.

When he finally went to observe Leon's father's body in the living room on the first floor, Bishop Bern walked up behind Karen and asked, "Did you find anything?"

Karen hesitated.

"Tell me what you find. There is nothing to worry about. The task force from the Dinger District may not be any more professional than us."

Karen hesitated, "I don't know the specifics yet."

"Is the specific situation not as good as what you see? What we know is the same as what you see."

"The chief bishop..."

"The chief bishop didn't see the assassin, and the assassin directly launched a sneak attack on the chief bishop. The bedroom was instantly covered with yellow sand, and then the assassin failed. Of course, the chief was seriously injured."

"Where's the assassin?"

"The assassin should also be injured. The chief said that, because when the assassin attacked him, he used a desperate technique. If the chief breaks that technique, the assassin will inevitably suffer backlash."

"Can it be controlled?" Karen asked, "I mean, you can block the teleportation circle of key nodes, and..."

"Except for the sand, the assassin left nothing behind. An assassin of this level can no longer be caught simply by blocking and tracking. I did not order to block all the teleportation circles in the York City area, because it is meaningless.

Either he chose to leave as quickly as possible through the route he had planned long ago, or he might still be hiding in York City. In short, he was very calm. "

Karen nodded upon hearing this.

Bishop Bern was a little curious: "Why don't you say, we just stand here and do nothing?"

"Because I understand your choice and agree with your experience."

"Really."

In fact, looking at it from another angle, both Karen and Neo have many precedents of successfully hiding after "committing crimes", and Karen feels that assassins can do it too, so it is difficult for the city-wide raid to have any effect at this time. .

"Tell me what you observed, because I found that you observe differently from other people. They are more attached to the sand, and you are not observing the sand."

"I have a guess. I think the assassin can kill so many people in the family so simply. Apart from the assassin's own strength, there is another factor..."

"explain."

"The assassin used his identity."

"Identity?" There was a smile on the corner of Bishop Bern's mouth, and then he seemed to realize that such an expression was inappropriate at this time, so he restrained his expression, leaned forward to Karen's side, and lowered his voice: "You See it?"

Bishop Bern's move made Karen feel a lot of pressure. If he didn't know that this incident could not have been directed and staged by the Cult of Kosmos, he might really feel that Bishop Bern's expression looks very similar to him now. The secret was revealed by himself.

It can only be said that for a person who is used to hiding in the dark and plotting, his whole body seems to have absorbed enough ink. It cannot be seen from the outside, but the color of the shadow is deeper.

"Tell me, how did you find out."

"I can see it from the position and layout of the death."

"Be more specific." A ray of blue light appeared under Bishop Berne's feet, and then it turned into countless silk threads and spread outward.

Karen pointed to Leon's father who was made into a hornet's nest and fixed on the chandelier in front, and said:

"The assassin should have walked in through the main entrance. Leon's father should have been sitting on the sofa in the living room reading the newspaper at the beginning. Now the newspaper is spread out on the coffee table, and the death position above extends downwards. It should be right in front of the couch. ..."

"Is that so?" The blue silk thread under Bishop Berne's feet formed a blue figure in front of him. It was the figure of Leon's father. He was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper, and then he looked towards the entrance. He put down the newspaper and stood up.

Bishop Bern continued to ask, "Guess what he will say?"

Karen replied: "It should be someone familiar who came. Entering this home, there will be no surprises. It may be 'You are here.' Or it may be 'You are back.'"

Bishop Berne nodded slightly, and the next moment, he raised his hand, and the image of the figure composed of blue light spots spoke something, and then his body quickly moved upwards, his body was filled with sand and the whole person was lifted up, fixed on the ceiling.

"Let's continue."

Karen suggested: "My lord, I think it's better not to let you act as the murderer. This will affect my substitution."

"Oh well."

A blue figure appeared beside Bishop Bern.

"Can it be black?" Karen asked. "A full shade of black."

"sure."

Immediately, the murderer turned into an all-black human figure.

Karen started walking towards the stairs, the Bishop of Burne followed behind him, and the black figure walked side by side with Karen.

"She, Leon's mother, should have seen the assassin on the stairs, and then she stopped at the corner, actively waiting for the murderer to come up."

Next, a blue female figure appeared at the corner. While the black figure walked up the stairs, he raised his hand. The blue female figure was imprisoned, and then coincided with the real corpse whose limbs were stared at in the real portrait. .

Immediately afterwards, Karen continued to walk up, and the black figure followed Karen up, and Bishop Bern subconsciously touched his wrist.

After arriving on the second floor, the first thing that comes into view is the place in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Before Karen could speak, a blue old lady appeared on the sofa, and she was sitting on the sofa.

Karen pointed to the half-knitted sweater on the tea table. Bishop Berne recalled that a sweater appeared in the hand of the blue old lady, and she was knitting.

"When the assassin walked up the stairs, the chief lady saw the assassin and put down the sweater she was knitting."

Bishop Bourne shook his head and said, "No, when the assassin walked in from the yard, the chief lady should have seen him, and then she has been waiting for him to come up."

"That's true."

Karen nodded, and pointed to the location of the candied fruit plate on the coffee table. This is an extremely precious snack that can only be bought with coupons. Karen had it in Pu'er afternoon tea when he was in Allen Manor.

"This plate is obviously not within reach of the old lady, which means that after seeing the assassin coming out of the stairs, she took the initiative to move the plate containing the preserved fruit to the outside, that is, to the side of the assassin. It should be Ask the assassin to taste it, and point to his own mouth and say it tastes good..."

Accompanied by Karen's narration, the figure of the blue old lady began to make corresponding movements, and then the black figure stretched out her fingers forward. The old lady's mouth was pierced by a sand cone, her head was thrown back, and her whole body was nailed. on the couch.

Karen said: "When the assassin kills, his method is very simple, and he didn't make any sound, and even controlled the fluctuation of the energy of the spell, so the reaction of each of the dead people in this family when they faced the assassin was very Alone, without echo."

"Yes, this is not only because the assassin is very powerful, but also means that he actually took advantage of the sneak attack, but instead of appearing from the shadows to sneak attack, every time he kills, he walks in front of others, openly and aboveboard' Sneak attack'."

"Yes, my lord, you are right, otherwise it would be impossible to explain the reactions and actions of these dead people before they died."

"continue."

"OK."

Karen walked around the corner of the corridor and came to the door of the study. Two servants with blue figures, a man and a woman, appeared in front of Karen. They stood on both sides of the door of the study.

"There's something incongruous about where the sand cones go into them and where they hold them against the wall."

"Then what do you think is why? Make a bold guess."

Karen pursed his lips, took a step back, and pointed at the black figure.

The black figure walked forward under the control of Bishop Berne, and walked up to the two blue servants.

Karen raised his hand and said, "They bent down..."

"I'm saluting."

"Yes, you are right, you are saluting."

The two blue figures began to salute, and the black figures spread their hands upwards. The chests of the two blue figures were pierced by many sand cones and nailed to the wall.

Then, under the control of Bishop Berne, the black figure opened the door of the study.

Karen said, "Uncle Leon, he didn't stand up. This behavior is different from the rest of the family."

"He's working." Bishop Bern added, "In his opinion, when the assassin comes in, he doesn't have to stop what he's doing, and can continue to sit on the chair."

"Yes, that's right, but he raised his head, because when the sand pillar pierced through, he should have raised his head, as if... laughing."

"He was laughing with the assassin? Then, he was nailed to the chair by Sha Zhu, and there was such a movement."

The black figure began to "communicate" with the blue Uncle Leon sitting on the chair in the study. After a short "communication", Uncle Leon raised his head and started laughing, and then Sha Zhu appeared. His figure was still the same as in reality The bodies preserved there coincide.

Karen and Bishop Berne left the study, and the black figure also left. He walked in front of the two and stopped at the door of Bishop Walforon's bedroom. Perform desperate spells.

Immediately, everything paused.

Bishop Bourne asked: "I'm just wondering why he didn't go in like he did to the rest of the family before? Is he worried that the chief will find out about him? But anyway, try the same deception as before. , After entering the bedroom and then 'sneak attacking', the success rate will be higher, even if it fails, it is not the same to use desperate techniques to attack again?

Why did he give up this opportunity of common sense, just at the door, without meeting each other, and directly attacking? I think this choice is unreasonable. "

"In fact, it fits, because the assassin is likely to be a perfectionist. He walked upright all the way, killing people one by one. When he got here, he had already killed other people in this family in that way. .

Therefore, he didn't want to take any chances. When he opened the door, the chief bishop might find out that something was wrong with him. He didn't want this feeling to be lost or destroyed. "

"You mean, he cares about gains and losses."

"Yes, I think the assassin may be a perfectionist."

"When he came here, he had already enjoyed it a lot, and he wanted to continue to enjoy it, so he didn't take the risk with the chief."

"I feel so."

"For this reason, I did not hesitate to reduce the success rate of assassinating the chief. This proves that the assassin's purpose is not to kill the chief. That is to say, this extermination is not a vendetta, but a...provocation against my Order of God."

"Didn't we all think so at the beginning?"

"It's one thing to think, it's another to find evidence."

"Yes, I see."

"Is there a clue?" Bishop Bern asked.

"A little bit, but don't know if it's correct."

"In the absence of a clue, wrong clues are also extremely precious."

"yes……"

"Recall it again, and give me an answer, assassin, how did you come in and kill people?"

Karen closed her eyes and began to think.

The assassin walked out of the porch, and Leon's father put down the newspaper and stood up;

When the assassin walked up to the stairs, Leon's mother stood at the corner and stopped to wait for the assassin to come up;

The assassin walked to the second floor, and Grandma Leon pushed the plate of preserved fruit to the outside in front of the French windows;

The assassin walked to the door of the study, and the two servants saluted the assassin;

Opening the door of the study at this moment, Uncle Leon who was sitting inside did not get up, and began to raise his head and laugh;

Karen crossed her fingers and began to think deeply.

Leon's father put down the newspaper and stood up: "I'm back."

Leon's mother stopped: "Come up and let me see, are you tired?"

Leon's grandma pushed the preserved fruit over: "Come on, try this, it tastes good."

Two servants: "You are back."

Uncle Leon in the study: "I finally know how tiring it is to work in a real department. Compared with your previous work, it is completely different, hahahaha..."

"Is it him?" Bishop Berne asked.

Karen opened his eyes, turned his head to look to the side, and found that the black figure was gradually changing, and finally turned into... Leon.

"mask!"

Assassins have Leon's mask!

Bishop Berne said meaningfully: "Yes, a mask that can make people very close to imitators in terms of appearance and temperament."

Bishop Bourne continued to stroke his wrist: "Do you know, Karen, in the trial against Vicole, I actually had a guess that I didn't throw out, that is, is there a possibility, Pavaro The judge died a long time ago, as for the judge Pavaro who appeared later, could it be another person who put on a mask."

There was no panic on Karen's face, but he took the initiative to remind: "My lord, I don't think it's time to review the Vicole case now, we should take some action immediately, because this may be the assassin's flaw and clue. "

Bishop Bern twisted his neck slightly, and said calmly:

"Before you came, I ordered the garrison to take action to arrest all those who can make masks in York City."

Today is an update, the physical condition still needs to be adjusted, hold everyone tight!
