Vol 2 Chapter 238 ancient demon

“This is the eighth case of the new Ripper, a member of the Night Watch and a freelance woman.”

As soon as he crossed the cordon, Dunn saw Carlson, who had partnered with him many times, come towards him and kept pinching his forehead.

Reading at zero

“Louis, you’re back.”

The dark circles under his eyes were a little heavier than when Dunn left, and his body, which had been strengthened after several rounds of potions, was almost pushed to its limit.

“A new one happened again?”

Seizing this precious opportunity, Dunn resolutely escaped from behind Daly and got close to Carlson.

As for dear Klein, oh, it doesn’t matter, as a “clown” who can control his expressions, Dunn believes that his team members can easily deal with this situation.

“Didn’t Ms. Daly and Mr. Mitchell tell you?”

Carlson opened his eyes in surprise. After seeing Dunn shaking his head slightly, he couldn’t help sighing and shoved the notebook in his arms directly into the other’s hand.

Taking advantage of the interval between Dunn flipping through his notes, Carlson continued to squeeze his forehead and roughly said:

“Actually, compared with the eighth incident, this one is not a serious accident. What really bothers me is the latest discovery.”

“Shortly after you left, Captain Yin Kangse… Arrodes gave new clues to help us lock down a location.”

Carlson frowned, his finger on the page Dunn was about to turn.

“This location is marked as the ninth case, but the identity of the victim here is unique.”

Scanning the small piece of paper clipped to the note, and sketching the victim’s appearance with the miniature sketch drawn by the ritual, Dunn stared at the horns and scales that would never appear on ordinary people, and raised his head.

“The victim here is a ‘devil’?”

Carlson tried to suppress his yawn and made a “yes” gesture with his right hand.

“Ha… It’s true, and it’s different from the fifth one before.” Carlsen gradually adjusted his state and said seriously:

“Although they all involve blood worship, the victim this time is a member of the blood worship, and according to Arrodes’ display, the murderer is more like a kind of ‘devil’ that has never been seen before. Traits of belonging to any ‘demon’ family.”

“Isn’t there data to prove that those so-called unseen types happen to be very similar to the more ancient ‘devil’ types?”

Leonard’s voice interjected abruptly. Dunn, who had just put in the eucalyptus, was startled and turned to look in Daly’s direction, only to see her staring blankly at him, while Klein, who was beside him, showed a relaxed expression. With a sigh of relief, it seems that he has forgotten the role of “The Clown”.

“So you still insist that these ‘demons’ may have been summoned by some demon lord, ancient ‘demons’ from the abyss?”

Carlson shook his head, stared straight at Leonard with bloodshot eyes, and said in a serious tone:

“Mr. Mitchell, although we advocate our own speculations and are open to enlightening insights, with all due respect, it is difficult for even the demon family behind the blood cult to find anyone who can support such an action. Demi god.”

The two young men with different opinions stubbornly looked at each other. Leonard, who had learned part of the truth from the old man, had his right hand messed up with messy black hair. He reminded the face of the person, but was afraid that it would attract the attention of others and guess the identity of the old man’s “parasite”.

The captain wouldn’t be like this in the past. No matter how wild he is, he will take our guess seriously… Leonard let out a deep breath, and shook it with a black radiance.

“I will try to find more evidence.”

Saying that, he simply turned sideways, hid beside Daly, and took the initiative to participate in the investigation that was about to begin.

Klein, who was left alone, looked around in a dazed way. After re-entering the state, he walked slowly to Carlson and took off his hat to greet him.

“I’m the informant recommended by Detective Yin Wensi, Sherlock Moriarty, can I call you Carlson directly?”

Carlson, who had just won a small victory with Leonard, had a lot of energy. He glanced at Dunn beside him, and nodded lightly:

“Of course no problem, Detective Moriarty. I heard Louis mention it. You also raised a lot of helpful possibilities before the Ripper. You are a very powerful detective.”

If Detective Yin Wensi was a little more “humble” at the time, I might be able to come up with a better guess, and maybe I can tell the whole process of the Ripper’s crime. Klein, who has always been brooding about pushing himself ahead at the “Detective Exchange Meeting”, tried his best to evoke a smile, perfectly interpreting the peculiar subtlety of the Loen people.

“Maybe it was just that Detective Yin Wensi was reluctant to show too much at the time. After all, he was too young, and geniuses always make people jealous.”

Klein nodded slightly at Dunn half-jokingly, his brain was tired, and Carlson, who had not reacted, nodded ignorantly, skipped the politeness, and began to get to the point.

“Well, to tell you the truth, I have been looking forward to your coming. After all, the Archbishop and the Kingdom hope that we can quell this riot as soon as possible.”

“This is the ninth incident that needs to be expanded on the list of investigations…”

Carlson took out another piece of paper in the notebook, counted to the part near the bottom, and pointed it to Dunn and Klein.

“The last two lines, this part is the part that Captain Yin Kangse wants you to be responsible for after negotiating with Deacon Soest of the Church of the Night.”

It’s the Backlund Bridge area… Dunn’s eyes flashed with a hint of solemnity, and after browsing through it, he handed the list to Klein.

It turns out that the new Eucalyptus the Ripper has reached the ninth case. Today, it is generally believed in the newspapers that there is only a copy of Eucalyptus… After Klein looked at several names that he and Louis Yinwensi were responsible for investigating , took the opportunity to read the above part, contacted the suggested map drawn on the side, and soon found the connection between the various locations.

Different from the scattered and random locations of the previous Ripper pieces, where is the law of the new Ripper’s murder?

But why do you choose to be near the Backlund District, to be densely concentrated in one area, it is far more dangerous than choosing the identity of the “prey”…

Klein pondered for a while, and habitually pushed the flat glasses.

“Carlson, can you elaborate on the part about blood worship?”

“I’ve only probably heard that they are a cult that believes in ‘devil’.”

“About this part…” Carlson weighed it carefully and made a quick draft in his mind. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com used words carefully:

“They are indeed cults that believe in ‘devil’, but they are composed of three long-standing ‘devil’ families, so they are closer than ordinary cult organizations, and their whereabouts are more secretive, especially in the two major families. After the decline of the Blood Worship Cult was reduced to a one-word hall of a family named North, we almost never heard of any internal conflict between them.”

At the end, he sighed softly.

“That’s why we think there may be other troubles behind the ninth incident.”

Klein pretended to be thoughtful. At the same time, he glanced at Dunn who was still carefully reading the notebook, nodded slightly, and said “temporarily”:

“What about the ancient ‘devil’ that Mr. Mitchell said just now?”

Possessing other features that are contrary to the modern recognized symbol of “devil” – shofar – and with the prefix of “ancient”, plus it was just over two hours since he visited Will Auceptin, it was hard for Klein not to Associate the so-called “ancient demon” with the ancient **** Fabti.

After all, in Will’s revelation, there is a part about “devil”, and that part points to the symbol of the ancient **** Fabti!

“Oh, don’t worry, the so-called ancient ‘demons’ basically refer to the species that appeared in the myths of the Second Age, or the ‘demons’ living in the abyss.” Considering that Sherlock Moriarty may not know much about the “abyss” , Carlson explained enthusiastically:

“As described in the holy scriptures, the ‘abyss’ in mysticism also refers to the place where the evil god’s ‘dark side of the universe’ hides, a region that actually exists.”

“It’s just like the ‘ancient demon’, this is something that disappeared a long time ago, and now it’s just a mysticism term.”
