Chapter 294 Stupid Question
“To be honest, I have only found 5 people so far.”
Dillashaw took out the 5 pages of information that he had compiled early and put them in Mai In front of Luo:
“The people on the clock tower will give me brief and fragmented information. My task is to use this information to find those people. Some of them have fallen into the abyss, and some are still unaware of it. , but without exception, when you look up their clan history or their faith history before the Great Plague, you can find some clues. Some of them are real family members, and some are believers of pagan sects, but they are all hidden very deep. "
"And the five people I found are among the victims of the 23 vicious incidents tonight."
...
"So David Derby counts as one."
Milo completely understood what Dillashaw meant, and he said while carefully wrapping his palms with gauze. : "Actually, it's not David Derby himself, but Ephraim White, a man named - well, Dagon, yes, a believer in the sect called Dagon. It is said that he is a descendant of some witch or priest. , in short, it’s very mysterious. Before he died, he transferred his will into his daughter’s body, and then spent more than ten years replacing his son-in-law’s body, and finally turned into a creature that was neither human nor ghost. Fortunately, He is dead now."
"Yes, these dead people can be simply classified into one type of people. They all carry some ancient inheritance, whether it is blood or belief." Dillashaw nodded and said: "Although we have not further verified this, the people pointed to by the latest information given by the Star Clock Tower today are also on the death list. There is absolutely no mistake. These deceased are not ordinary people." < br>
"In other words, those assassins of unknown origin are doing the same thing as you. They are also looking for these... what are they called, apostles of the Dominator? And it seems that their The progress is way behind you," Milo muttered.
"It's a pity that no one has seen these hunters tonight. We don't know their purpose..." Dillashaw looked down at the seven broken corpses.
These people basically died from sharp cold weapons. Except for the one who was burned to death, the other six corpses among the seven corpses had their heads cut off.
Judging from the number of physical wounds, they did not fight or fight with the murderer to any extent before they died. They were almost all killed without defense, and the methods were simple and neat. , chilling.
From this point of view, it is actually difficult to connect the deceased with the evil apostles Dillashaw mentioned.
People will just treat them as innocent victims.
...
“I saw it.”
Milo shook his bandaged palm and said.
"Have you seen those hunters?" Dillashaw looked up in shock again.
“You don’t believe it.” Milo asked.
Dillashaw paused for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "I'm just curious about how you survived."
"Because I'm also on their assassination list, right?" Milo shrugged.
"Well..." Dillashaw nodded: "Actually, the first suspect I stared at from the people on the Star Clock Tower was you. Of course, after the Glachi incident, their attitude towards you was... It’s become a little more subtle.”
“I’m cleared of suspicion, right?” Milo muttered.
“Not quite.”
"Okay."
..."So those hunters you are talking about? Hunters? Who are they? Do you have any ideas?" Milo asked Dillashaw.
Dillashaw replied calmly: "Not at all. Before the sirens sounded in the city tonight, I didn't even know these guys existed. You are the one with whom You should provide clues about the people they have encountered head-on."
"Okay, let me think about it." Milo curled his lips and touched his chin and recalled, "Professionals, I am. I have never seen such a high degree of professionalism, maybe it’s because I have little experience, but to put it bluntly, it sounds a bit arrogant, this is the first time that a human being has the ability to make me so embarrassed.”
He emphasized the word "human".
Then he continued:
“Also, they are definitely not the kind of killers who receive money to do things, because when they killed David Derby, some of them chose It has to be said that the method of using one's life to fight one's own life is very cruel, even a bit like death."
"Then...well, I don't know how much you know about this. What they are holding in their hands is. The latest thermal weapon, combined with the oldest and most mysterious weapon. "A weapon?" Dillashaw frowned.
"It seems you have heard of it." Milo nodded.
In fact, there is one most critical clue that he did not mention, that is, there are psychics in the hunter organization.
But Milo didn't know how to explain the phenomenon of psychic visionaries, and he didn't know how deep Dillashaw's understanding of this field was, so he could only keep silent about this for the time being. .
"These clues are very valuable. I tried my best to investigate their origins through my channels." Dillashaw took out a pen from under his gray robe and quickly wrote down what Milo provided, then raised his head and asked Said:
“Is there any more?”
"Well..." A strange expression suddenly appeared on Milo's face. He asked tentatively: "How well do you know the church you are in?"
"What do you mean?" Dilla Xiao asked with some astonishment.
"What I mean is, do you think it's possible that these people are paid by the church just like you, but you just don't know about their existence." Milo stared with a half-smile. By Dillashaw.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible." Dillashaw denied Milo's conjecture with great certainty: "Mr. Defoe has made it clear that I am the only one carrying out this mission."
"Is it possible that Defoe himself doesn't know the truth?" Milo couldn't stop thinking about conspiracy theories once he started thinking about it.
"If the direction of your investigation is directed towards the church, then I can only say that your task force will eventually have to accept its fate and be the one who takes the blame." Dillashaw said very seriously.
He rarely put away the kind smile on his face.
Milo shrugged:
“Okay, okay, it’s just a mention. Then let’s study the serious things. Didn’t you say that the big shots on the Star Clock Tower have been there all the time? To give you a clue, are they still going on? I mean, including David Derby, are all the so-called Apostles of Disaster dead? If not, those hunters are still in Nanwei City. "Stay there."
Milo reacted as soon as he asked this question and realized that he had asked a very stupid question.
"Well, just pretend I didn't ask, they must not have evacuated yet."
Because he himself is on their killing list, and he is still alive and kicking, and those people will definitely not evacuate. ah.
