Chapter 66 Next Step
The mountain people had already fled under the leadership of the priest, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
When I left, I was still ecstatic, as if I had escaped death.
According to the description of the priest, the lord in the attic was just a trace of aura that he brought out casually, which revealed the endless majesty of the gods. He was like a supreme being walking in the mortal world. He was probably the top powerhouse only one step away from the gods.
Thanks to the kind Lord, he was in a good mood and everyone was able to leave the cabin alive. Thank you for the kindness of the strong man. The female reporter is not here anyway. Stop talking nonsense. Prioritize your life. Leave as soon as possible. We will figure out other things later.
So, a group of ghoul mountain people thanked the attic profusely, and then hurriedly fled into the sparse forest. After a while, Officer Natalie and Lynch carefully got out of the attic. out.
He actually managed to frighten a high-level expert, allowing the two of them to save their lives. The two looked at each other for a long time before showing expressions of whether they were crying or laughing.
The police officer hugged Lynch and strangled him until he was almost out of breath before letting him go. She whispered in his ear: "This is the second time, thank you."
< br>"What second time? Don't you owe me three times?"
Looking at the complicated expression and strange eyes of the police officer, Lynch couldn't figure out what she was thinking. This woman didn't want to let him go for once. Unfortunately, before he could ask, he was kicked in the calf.
How come this policeman beats people casually? He is so violent.
“Get out of here.” Officer Natalie imitated Lynch and cursed angrily. Thinking of how such a powerful high-level soul-shifter was deceived into such an embarrassing situation, she couldn’t help biting her lip and laughing again. came out, "I really didn't expect you to be able to deceive it. You have surprised me so much these days."
Lynch shrugged. In fact, he was not very surprised. Many people in this world are very good at guessing, such as Duke Wayne and Archbishop Trinleth. In addition, this old ghoul's perception is so keen that he is abnormal. , means that are ineffective for others can work wonders for it.
It was just hard to explain. Lynch had already made up several reasons in his mind, so he waited anxiously for the police officer to ask the reason. However, Officer Natalie didn’t ask anything and just smiled at him. Laughing, making his preparations hit the empty space like a punch.
“Everyone has secrets, and many things can only be known by one person. Keeping distance is a necessary condition for long-term harmony between partners.”
Officer Natalie patted Lynch's shoulder meaningfully:
"Since the ghouls have been so cooperative and got out of the way, it's better to leave as soon as possible, and at least report their true identities."
But Lin Qi stopped her and told her a story about how he fought off thousands of pursuing soldiers, but his strength was revealed by demolishing the bridge. Therefore, to be on the safe side, you must not leave in a hurry, but must remain calm and composed.
It’s hard to say whether the story convinced the police officer, but at least she liked hearing it. Unknowingly, the two of them spent more than half an hour rummaging through Maya’s cabin while telling the story.
Indeed, nothing was found. The female reporter left no information behind when she fled.
The police officer was a little regretful, because this meant that the clues that the two of them were pursuing had been lost, but Lynch shook his head. "Your purpose is to find out the real manipulator behind the square incident and make him pay the price for destroying order. I have a further goal, but at this stage it is still the same." Lynch was addicted to playing and climbed up Attic put away the ladder, turned on the ability, and explained in a low voice, "Actually, I feel that the clues are not broken, but become clearer, because many clues are combined. There are at least two clues in this case that can be continued to be pursued."
The kerosene lamp had been lit. Under the orange light, Officer Natalie held her chin and stared at Lynch. Perhaps it was because of the light. Her originally fierce eyes flickered. Lin Qi looked a little confused, then she raised her lips and shook her head: "Nothing, I think you are right, our goals are the same, you continue."
"In Nolin- In the Rhine Railway incident, the clue of Maya and Downey has been entangled with the route of the mountain people. Maya's encounter began with the mountain people, and the mountain people are also looking for her. So since there is no clue about Maya, it is completely possible to start from the mountain people. Starting from the mountain people. Including what happened to Maya before, why she received that... uh, curse, and even where Maya is now, you may find the answer from the mountain people. That afternoon you said to report to the strong people in the mountain people. , what is the result? ”
"It has been reported to Victor. It is said that he has also sent many informants and mobilized the police, but there has been no progress at all. The whereabouts of the mountain people are too mysterious and it is difficult to find them. Now it is confirmed that they are corpses Ghost, then it will be harder to search."
"It doesn't matter, these ghoul mountain people can see that they still have concerns. They have personally said that they do not want to alarm the humans in the city, so as long as we can be more vigilant, Personal safety shouldn't be a problem."
"Well, like that afternoon, they didn't use fatal attacks."
"Yes, so our follow-up investigation will focus on them. We may not necessarily find them, but we must understand them from the side. Although we don't know their movements, the Valente family who has had contact with them is the breakthrough."
"This family is not easy to investigate." This was the first time Lynch saw the police officer looking embarrassed. "The main body of their family is in the capital Nolin, and only the eldest daughter is the church of Fiona, the Lord of Suffering. The nun was sent to the Rhine City. So if you want to investigate them, you must start from the royal capital. The problem is... although this family has declined, it has produced at least two queens, and now has a close relationship with the royal Rose family. In short, this is a very difficult target. If we want to investigate them without any evidence, formal channels will definitely encounter great resistance, so I wrote to trust my friends in Wangdu to help. It is no problem to obtain basic information, but it requires some. Time."
"Well, let's wait slowly. I can also use my status as the special adviser of the Governor's Mansion to ask them to help investigate this family."
"Are they reliable? It won't be like the city hall."
"Yeah." Lynch did not explain in detail. Without a good reason, he usually assumes that the employer is fine. Otherwise, if the employer is suspected from the beginning , then there is no need to accept the commission.
"Well, according to Mr. Klin's experience, Maya should have at least ten days left. She may be a little nervous waiting for news from the royal capital. It's best to get the information from the Governor's Mansion." Ms. Police Officer He also turned his brain and thought.
"When asking the Governor's Mansion for help, I also want to ask the criminals from the Railway Workers' Union. I wonder if their interrogation has yielded any results." Lynch frowned, "But those people shouldn't be important. It's hard to find out anything. Valuable clues, there is one most important thing that must be clarified as soon as possible."
"Huh?"
"The priest used 'also' to explain more. The Alliance of Shadows is interested in this thing, and its importance must be quite high.”
Lynch took out his detective notebook and carefully wrote down the name on it.
"I have a hunch that this name is the real big fish. Let's find out his identity as soon as possible."
