Chapter 125 Russell Delivering Goods to Your Door
"Why did you attack Owen?"
Upon hearing this question, "ancient scholar" Daphne Priestley organized her sentences slightly and answered without reservation:
“Seriously speaking, there are three main reasons for this matter.
"However, now that I think about it, it feels like a coincidence...
"First, I happened to make the 'Pain Witch' Reina into a marionette before, and learned from her about the grudges between Owen and her and her original wife, the 'White Saint' Katarina...
"Of course, this is not the point. What is more important is that I learned from her memory that Irving once sent someone to contact Baron Larry of Loen, and he may know the information about the 'Ghost Empire'.
“I, on the other hand, am very interested in the legacy of Trunsoest.
"Second, the prime minister of the Delien family issued a commission to the Secret Order to intercept and kill Mr. Irving through some channels... and I, who originally wanted to obtain information from Irving, simply accepted the commission and After receiving information about Mr. Owen's itinerary from the Delien family, an ambush was carried out in advance.
"You know what happened later. Because I didn't want the official to notice the demigod fight, and because of Owen's lustful character, I pulled him into the 'Book of Virtues'...
"Unfortunately, whether it was the information provided by the Delien family or Lena's memory, our understanding of Owen was extremely biased. Instead of being able to capture him quickly, I was left helpless and finally captured by him... …Taking something obscene like that forced me to run away…”
Speaking of this, Daphne's tone inevitably contained a bit of resentment, as if she was very unhappy about being defeated by a Sequence 3 by a Sequence 4.
After all, as an "ancient scholar", she was really aggrieved that she could not let the summoned historical projection carry out a substantial attack in the "Book of Virtues"... and what was even more aggrieved was that this battlefield was set by herself in advance.
Although the prime minister of the Delien family is almost crazy, he still knows very well who is his biggest threat... The thoughtful Abner completely ignored her frustration and continued to ask:
"What about the third reason?"
Daphne adjusted her mood and continued: "Thirdly, many families in Trier do not want Irving to come back to restrict the Prime Minister. They also hope that the current Prime Minister can continue to make some wrong decisions and arouse public anger. to reduce resistance to subsequent reforms.
“The Surrey family and the Sauron family are the main ones here.
“So, in addition to Delien’s commission, Mr. Owen actually also has a reward on the black market!
"As far as I know, the person who put the reward on his head is probably Miss Fanny, the rising political star of the Surrey family...
"Of course, it could also be Viscount Abner Braine behind this young lady."
God, Abner put a bounty on Owen... Does this count as me hiring someone to kill myself? Abner complained mentally, and after thinking about it on the surface, he asked again: "How did you catch Catalina's former husband... Oh, that is, the 'Pain Witch' Rena ?”
This thing does seem to be a coincidence. Maybe there is someone else behind it.
Daphne glanced at Lena, who was wearing a monocle and sitting motionless on a chair, and said after careful consideration:
"The identity I am currently playing is a member of Congress. Although I keep a low profile, I inevitably have political opponents...
“I had ‘channelled’ Reina before, and the result I saw was that she was a killer sent by one of my political opponents.
"I didn't suspect anything before, but now that I think about it, there may be some problems... The results of the psychic may not be all true."
This is very similar to asking her to take the initiative to die, and send you information by the way to arouse your interest in Owen! There is a high probability that there is someone behind the scenes...
Who is the one? Some of Owen's enemies? Love rival? Sufferer? If you just look through Owen's memory, you can find no fewer than ten suspects... Owen is really hated!
However, there are not many people who have the ability to "arrange" a powerful "Pain Witch"...
In addition, this person should not be too strong, at least he is not sure about taking down Owen, so he will use the people from the Secret Order to do it.
Finally, the people behind the scenes are likely to have colluded with people from the Secret Order, otherwise they would not know that Daphne cares about the "Ghost Empire"...
While his thoughts were spinning, Abner was about to continue asking when there was a knock at the door of the living room.
"What's the matter?" Daphne asked after seeing Abner take the initiative to remove the "spiritual wall".
She could feel that the person knocking on the door was her housekeeper, and added: "Come in."
After Mr. Butler opened the door and entered the living room, he quickly saw Abner sitting on the sofa drinking tea, but he did not think there was any problem with this. He only responded after bowing:
"Ma'am, it's Inspector Russell calling."
"Russell? Did he come to see if I was dead?" Daphne sneered, and then explained to Abner beside her, "My political opponent was pushed up by Russell. She has always wanted to replace me now. s position."
Russell? The Russell involved in the murder case I met on the train to Trier for the first time? The Russell who probably used Russell's "Les Misérables" as a script to prepare for the "devil" ritual? The Russell who sent Bianca to my house to spy on me?
Tsk, I haven’t even spared the time to kill you, but instead you showed up to the door yourself?
We just happened to solve it together today!
With this thought in his mind, Abner turned his head to look in the direction of the living room window and called softly: "Yalo Lan."
Daphne followed Abner's line of sight without knowing why, and was surprised to find a beautiful woman with silver hair and red eyes nodding slightly, as if in response.
This...angel? It turns out that not only the messenger of God, but also an angel came... No wonder I couldn't move my body before I gave my faith to the Lord!
Daphne showed a look of surprise, but she didn't think there was anything wrong with the fact that the "Lord" was served by angels. After all, the "Lord" was the true God, so wasn't it natural for the "Lord" to be served by angels?
…
Inspector Russell, who was sitting in the living room, frowned while taking a sip of the tea brought by the servant.
Although he didn't sense any danger, he felt a faint sense of uneasiness.
He came to visit today, as Daphne expected, to find out the current situation of this female congressman. After all, it had been two days since Reina took over the task, and the other party was not an extraordinary person, so there should be results.
But at this moment, he suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the ceiling, and then his body suddenly expanded, tearing his clothes apart inch by inch, and instantly turned into a huge creature nearly three meters tall!
His skin looks dull, but is actually dark and evil. The goat horns on his head are curved and stretched out, covered with countless mysterious patterns. A pair of giant bat-like wings spread out behind his back, entwined with light blue flames, exuding a strong The smell of sulfur.
As soon as Russell noticed the "evil thoughts" that threatened him, he changed into the "demon" form without hesitation. This shows how much pressure the source of the evil thoughts put on him!
"Who on earth wants to deal with me? And I have been promoted to a 'devil'. What kind of person should be who can bring me that kind of terrifying feeling?"
While thinking in his mind, he had already broken through the window and came to the street.
But what shocked Russell was that not only were there no pedestrians on the street at this time, but even the buildings seemed to have disappeared, with only a few white columns looming in the distance.
Seeing this, Russell flapped his wings and quickly flew in the opposite direction of the pillars, trying to get rid of the abnormal situation in front of him.
However, the strange thing is that not only did he not escape the range of the pillars, but the pillars were getting closer and closer.
"What on earth is going on?" As soon as this thought flashed through Russell's mind, he saw those pillars suddenly appearing in front of him, and then he felt a huge force holding him down and pressing him to the ground. And completely imprisoned.
"The mysterious reappearance - Wuzhishan!"
