Chapter 572 The murderer, the piper of Hamel?
"It seems that Sandra has not had it easy these past years."
Regarding [Salamandra]'s situation, Ren, who had been her ally and was a good friend of Sandora, couldn't help but feel sad and sad.
The problem children have no special feelings about this. For an organization, such dramas can only be said to be too common.
He even turned back to Izayoi and rubbed his chin, thinking in a wicked way:
"Usually this type of story also involves plots such as fighting for inheritance rights. For example, the guy named Mandela is actually dissatisfied with Sandora and is secretly planning to usurp the throne..."
"Please don't say that."
Hearing this, Ren said with a bitter smile:
"Although Mr. Mandela behaved a bit badly today, with a bad temper and contempt for others, as an elder brother, his concern and care for Shandora are by no means fake."
"Is that so?"
Back to Izayoi, he shrugged nonchalantly and said, "That's a pity, it's missing a plot twist."
On the other side, Fujimaru Ritsuka turned to look at Kuon Asuka next to her. To be more precise, it was a yellow elf with a pointed hat that looked like a cake sitting on her shoulder.
She asked curiously:
"Speaking of which, where did this kid come from?"
Noticing Fujimaru Ritsuka's gaze, the elf immediately cowered and hid behind Kuon Asuka's neck, with only half of his head exposed to peek.
Jiuyuan Asuka stretched out his hand to pick her up, and explained with a smile: "Don't be afraid, they are all companions who belong to the same community as me."
"Companion? Asuka's?"
"Um."
"……companion!"
The elf seemed to quickly understand the situation, and the fearful expression on his face quickly disappeared, and he turned to look at Fujimaru Ritsuka curiously.
Upon seeing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka waved to her in a friendly manner, and the elf suddenly showed a happy smile on his face. He waved to her happily in response, and then shouted:
"Rattenfanger!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka was stunned when she heard this, and felt that the name sounded familiar. The next moment, she suddenly reacted and said:
"Speaking of which, one of the communities that advanced to the finals with us seems to have this name!"
Moreover, it is still a six-digit community.
"Six figures...! Is your community so powerful?"
"uh-huh!"
Jiuyuan Asuka looked at the elf in surprise, and the elf puffed up his chest very proudly.
Then, Kuon Asuka smiled helplessly and continued to explain that because the little guy didn't seem to have his own name, he introduced himself with the name of the community.
"I see."
Fujimaru Ritsuka suddenly realized, then smiled at her and said:
"Hello, my name is Fujimaru Ritsuka, just call me Ritsuka."
"Ritsuka~! Rattenfanger!"
Jiuyuan Asuka continued:
"We met this little guy on the road. According to Renjun, he is a lone group elf. We quickly became friends."
"friend!"
the elf agreed happily.
But then, a hesitant expression appeared on Jiuyuan Asuka's face, and he said hesitantly:
"Speaking of which, there is actually another clue about the person who attacked us during the day."
"Oh?" Bai Yasha on the side couldn't help but raised his eyebrows slightly and cast his gaze over. Kuyuan Asuka said:
"Before we were attacked, we heard the other party say 'pretending to be [Rattenfanger]' Bold fanatic! 'Such a statement seems to be directed at the little guy."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was either surprised or looked at the elf with inquiring eyes. The elf seemed to understand the current situation too well. Facing the looks from everyone, he just tilted his head in confusion.
"The bold maniac who pretended to be [Rattenfanger]... In other words, does the other party think that their community should be [Rattenfanger]...?"
Bai Yaksha fell into deep thought.
In the small garden, the name of each community is unique and represents a unique meaning. Since the attacker thinks he is the [Rattenfanger], at least it means that the other party is an existence related to this title.
However, before she could think carefully about the meaning of [Rattenfanger], Izayoi Izayoi on the side laughed and said: "The name Rattenfanger, coupled with the attack method of controlling rats through flute sounds, basically can Have you confirmed that the other party is the piper of Hamel?"
“The Pied Piper of Hamel?!”
The moment he heard the name, Bai Yaksha's pupils shrank and he asked in a deep voice: "Wait a minute, what's going on? Be careful, kid."
Although he didn’t know why Shiroyasha suddenly became so excited, he turned back to Izayoi and said with a smile:
"Actually, it's very simple. The young master should also be able to decipher it, right? Rattenfanger means flute player in German, and this flute player is a metaphor for "The Piper of Hamel", one of Grimm's fairy tales. ”
There are several story creation stages in Grimm's Fairy Tales, all of which refer to historical evidence. [The Piper of Hamel] is one of them, and [Hamel] is the name of the town where the story takes place.
The inscription, which was used as a prototype for the Grimm fairy tale "The Piper of Hamel", is as follows:
——June 26, the anniversary of John and Paul, 1284.
130 children born in Hamel were lured out by flute players dressed in various colors, and finally disappeared at the execution ground near the hills——
This inscription narrates an actual event that occurred in the town of Hamel and is displayed with a piece of stained glass.
It is also the prototype of a story that later became one of the Brothers Grimm fairy tales, named "The Piper of Hamel".
The method of manipulating the attack of mice is the method given to the piper in Grimm's fairy tales.
After hearing the whole story, everyone nodded suddenly, and then looked at Bai Yaksha, waiting for the explanation of the other person's sudden excitement.
Bai Yaksha took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:
"As far as I know, the so-called [Piper of Hamel] is the name of a certain community affiliated with the Demon King."
"What?" Summon a community of demons."
The opponent can summon multiple demons from a magic book, and even the different world backgrounds of each chapter in the magic book are included. All contents of the magic book have clearly established rules and compulsory powers in the form of a game board. , is an extremely powerful demon king.
"But that demon king lost the gift game with a certain community, so he should be dead."
Having said this, Bai Yaksha paused for a moment and said with a somewhat solemn tone:
"If the person who attacked you is the [Piper of Hamel], that may mean that the person who attacked the birth of the fire dragon Are they the remnants of the Demon King?"
"..."
After finally confirming the Demon King's information, everyone fell into a brief silence, digesting the current situation.
"Wait a moment,"
Black Rabbit suddenly reacted and asked in a panic to Kaikai Izayoi and others: "It is obviously such important information, why didn't you explain it at the meeting just now?!"
Kuon Asuka and Izayoi Said in unison:
“Because it’s not fun to look at that Mandela/Grumpy Man.”
"Pah! Pah!"
Black Rabbit took out a paper fan and beat the two of them angrily. At the same time, Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at the elf on Kuon Asuka's shoulder and said doubtfully: "If this is the case, then what about this little guy's community? What's going on?"
