Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

Female victim, brutal murder scene, all internal organs were emptied...

I don't know if Edita is a street girl... But in order to save her younger brother, she may have made an unspeakable choice...

The symbolism in this scene is so obvious that it is difficult for Louise to explain that it was an accident.

She was standing in the middle of this small living room, hidden in the shadows, silently looking at the middle-aged couple clinging to each other, unable to hide their grief, and in front of them was the bloody scene scattered on the ground, which made people unable to bear to look directly at it. She was speechless for a long time. .

Then, she performed a divination using Edita's blood:

"There is extraordinary power involved here."

The results are beyond doubt.

Many details are piled together, and the truth is ready to come out... This is the tragedy caused by that "devil dog", and it may be the first one.

Louise hadn't even spoken to the dead maid, but Edita may have been implicated in her death.

A detail suddenly appeared in her mind, the "Apostle of Desire" who assassinated Duke Negan, the banker Jason Beria had two faces...Two faces in the real sense, because he had a human skin mask that could Completely change your appearance.

Walter might just be a pseudonym for him...

Jason Beria has also cultivated a Sequence Six "Devil Dog" and is seeking promotion. Could it be that this is the beginning of the ceremony?

I remember that the promotion ceremony of "Apostle of Desire" is to kill people and eat their internal organs. The minimum is to kill 13 people, and the maximum is 49 people. ... Counting the time, now seems to be exactly the time for the ceremony to start.

So, "Demon Hounds" killed Edith... a random target? Or is it aimed at yourself?

Louise didn't understand, in order to be promoted smoothly, the other party should deliberately avoid accidents, why did she kill a maid beside her?

The madness deeply rooted in the heart of the "devil"?

After that, she quietly left the hut.

…………

The next day, Backlund ushered in the long-lost sunshine. Although it was not bright, it could at least make people feel much better.

"Take out five hundred pounds in cash and send it to Edita's parents." Louise instructed the maid.

Although the five hundred pounds could not heal the pain of "the white-haired man giving the black-haired man", it was enough to make the life of the couple more stable, and they would not go bankrupt due to accidents and live on the streets.

Edita's death, it's hard to tell whether it was an accident or not... Even if she didn't die, there would always be an innocent woman killed by the "devil dog", but the five hundred pounds could at least alleviate some of Louise's guilt... …

After that, before Miss "Seer" was about to go out, Louise stopped her in time and explained:

"The commission to investigate Walter can be temporarily put on hold."

"Why?"

Katrin expressed her perplexity. Although she hasn't gotten any clues yet, the commission has only been posted for a few days. It's normal to have no clues. Why did she suddenly give up?

Because Walter is probably just a fictitious code name... Louise was misled before, but fortunately it is not too late to wake up, she calmed down and explained:

"The entrustment is still pending and there is no need to revoke it, but there will be no results. Naturally, there is no need to spend any more time investigating."

"In the past few days, I want you to pay attention to the recent movements of the Beria gang, the more comprehensive the better."

the gangster? Sure enough, I knew it was going to be eliminated in the end... Catherine felt that she knew Louise much more deeply, and solemnly agreed:

"I see."

"Well, let's go." Louise nodded, turned and went back to the living room.

She didn't intend to confront the "Apostle of Desire" of Sequence Five, Jason Beria. During the critical process of "Devil Dog" being promoted to Sequence Five, Jason Beria needs to escort it, and it is difficult to spare extra energy to deal with Louise...

On the contrary, Louise had enough time and energy to plan countermeasures, so the Beria gang was lucky to become the first sharpening stone.

If it was just to kill a gangster, it wouldn't be any challenge at all, but Louise's purpose was more than that. She also needed to digest the "witch" potion in the process, which required a little more thought.

…………

On Wednesday evening, Louise dressed up for a dinner hosted by the Hall family.

It is obvious that the Countess and Earl of Hall have done some understanding of the lady specially invited by their precious daughter in advance, so they are no strangers to Louise.

"At the last ball, we didn't communicate too much. I must listen to your adventure story in the Southern Continent tonight."

"It is my pleasure, noble countess."

Louise showed a dignified atmosphere, and her etiquette was in compliance with the norms, and then she walked into the banquet hall.

As expected of Loen's leading banker, a member of the House of Lords trusted by the king, and the core figure of the new party, Mr. Earl Hall.

Tonight's banquet highlights a solemnity. The banquet hall is decorated with dazzling brilliance, and the guests are all rich and noble. In contrast, Louise is not so conspicuous standing in the crowd... Of course, this is also She intentionally restrained her own charm, who knows how many Extraordinary people are in this hall, as a "witch", it's better to keep a low profile...

Since Audrey is not yet an adult socially, at this kind of formal banquet, she did not follow her parents to greet the guests, but chatted with acquaintances relaxedly, and at the same time entered the state of "spectator" to observe, never forgetting play.

Soon, she saw the familiar and looking forward to the back, so she apologized to the friend in front of her, turned and walked towards the dining table.

"Dessert should be eaten after dinner!"

Louise was holding a cute and exquisite rabbit cake, and was about to put it in her mouth. When she heard the voice, she turned her head and saw Miss Justice standing in front of her, showing a sly smile.

"Don't you think this 'rabbit' is cute?" she asked.

"Then why do you want to eat it?" Audrey asked cooperatively.

Louise took a bite, swallowed the "rabbit head", and said, "It's cute, so it's delicious!"

Audrey tilted her head slightly, and said with a smile:

"I like the gift you asked for."

"Just as long as you like it." Adhering to the principle of not wasting, Louise swallowed the remaining half of the cake and said, "I have better ones, I'll give them to you another day."

"I'm looking forward to it." Audrey smiled sweetly.
