Chapter 190 The Fate of a Private Detective

died?

Will Auceptin is dead?

And it seems to be dead for a while!

Could this be fake?

Klein looked at the child's corpse in surprise and suspicion, and many thoughts popped up in his mind.

In his cognition, Will Auceptin is a child with special characteristics, which may be related to Sequence 1 "Mercury Snake" of the "Monster" pathway.

The divination game he played, and his casual sentence "Doctor, your luck will get worse", made Allen unlucky for a long time; the thousand paper cranes he folded could allow Allen's astral body to be located in the spirit world, He was indoctrinated with man-made revelations; even Klein could only catch a glimpse of his whereabouts above the gray mist, and it was difficult to draw valid conclusions... How could such a child die inexplicably? Died before Dr. Allen dreamed? What about his relatives?

Klein narrowed his eyes slightly, endured strong nausea, and carefully inspected the highly decomposed corpse, and found some shredded Tarot cards in the surrounding soil.

His spiritual intuition told him that there was a high probability that the corpse in front of him was Will Auceptin.

It's really shocking and confusing... Go back above the gray fog to confirm whether Will Auceptin's death is fake... Wait, what does this have to do with me? I have long since decided not to get involved in this matter, so as not to be entangled by some "Mercury Snake", which may be more terrifying than the Sealed Artifact "0-08"... Klein snapped back to his senses. The gravekeeper and Dr. Allen, who was about to collapse in fright, said:

"Call the police!"

"Okay, okay!" The gravekeeper was taken aback for a moment, and then replied repeatedly.

Holding the shovel, he turned and ran out of the woods, as fast as a living corpse chasing him.

Sure enough, he is just an ordinary person, not cautious at all. In this case, shouldn't he be wary of the evil intentions of the people around him? If you expose your back, it's easy to be shot with a shovel... Klein glanced at the back of the grave guard, sighed and shook his head.

When he was in the night squad in Tingen City, he read a lot of case files and found that many victims were tricked by their accomplices in this way.

Thinking of this, Klein walked to Dr. Allen, bent down and stretched out his hand:

"There is nothing to be afraid of, he is already dead."

"...It's the dead that makes people scared." Allen calmed down a little, and got up by himself without accepting Klein's support.

His long black dress was already covered with mud, which made Klein inexplicably feel distressed.

I don't like to see valuable things being damaged... He sighed in his heart.

Seeing that Allen was still a little panicked, Klein smiled and said:

"At this time, praying to the gods you believe in has a good effect."

"Really?" Allen froze for a moment, tapped his chest clockwise four times, and chanted in a low voice, "Goddess of the Night, who is higher than the starry sky and older than eternity, your devout believer begs for your favor... "

In repeated whispers, he slowly calmed down, no longer as frightened as before.

Klein also drew a triangular holy emblem on his chest, and said silently to himself:

"God of steam and machinery, you are not devout believers begging for your favor..."

While speaking, he couldn't help laughing at himself, suspecting that he might be killed by lightning on the spot.

However, lightning and thunder belong to the Lord of Storms, not within the domain of the God of Steam and Machinery... Klein thought quite easily.

After more than 20 minutes, the two sat in the interrogation room of a nearby police station.

When making the statement, Klein told the policemen frankly that he was just a commissioned private investigator and had no idea what happened. Dr. Allen described in detail his dream and the reason for the exhumation of the body.

Klein could tell that the policemen didn't believe it at all, but after they went out for a walk, they immediately changed their attitudes, saying that Dr. Allen and Detective Moriarty were not suspected, and they only needed to sign a statement before they could leave. .

Allen was quite surprised by this, but Klein was not surprised at all.

It was obvious that someone from the Nighthawks had stepped forward.

The benefit of letting the doctor go to the Fanxing Church to find the bishop in advance is reflected.

Before leaving the police station, Klein was not surprised to see a familiar figure. It was the Nighthawk who had entered his dream before.

The Nighthawk, who might be the captain, was still wearing a gray windbreaker, and he looked more frost-resistant than Klein at first glance. His blue eyes swept away, and he looked away from Klein's face without any abnormality, pretending that he was just a Ordinary Senior Inspector.

Klein, who also pretended that he was just an ordinary private detective, pushed down his glasses, put on a half-height silk top hat, left the police station with Dr. Allen, and got into the carriage.

After ordering his coachman to go to Minsk Street first, Allen turned to look at Klein:

"Sherlock, do you think this is the end of the matter?"

"If that corpse is really Will Auceptin, you shouldn't be bothered anymore." Klein paused and said, "Alan, have you felt any other weirdness during this period? No matter what things."

Allen thought about it seriously, shook his head and said:

"No."

"It's worth celebrating!" Klein said with a sigh and a smile.

For him, it was best for Will Auceptin's matter to end like this. Although the origami crane that Klein folded above the gray fog would not reveal anything, and there would be no problem with divination afterwards, After all, he was still a little worried that some Nighthawks would come up with a whim and find some clues. Now, with Will Auceptin's death, this case may soon come to a dead end and be put into the file. It is declared over, and no one will pay attention if there is no new situation.

Allen relaxed, and turned to wonder: "Frankly speaking, I don't think my confession is too convincing. Why did the police finally choose to believe it?"

"I don't know either." Klein deliberately pretended to be stupid, "I thought I had to ask my lawyer to bring me home again, no, let me go home on bail."

Allen twitched the corner of his mouth in a rare way and said:

"Sherlock, you seem to have a lot of experience in entering the police station?"

Klein laughed and replied deeply:

"This is the fate of every private investigator."

…………

Just when Klein and Allen were brought into the police station near the Green Cemetery, Fors Wall was wearing a long black elegant dress and a black soft hat with fine mesh gauze hanging down, and walked into the police station. In that quiet cemetery, the grave belonging to Mrs. An Lisa was found.

She and Xio had gone to Queens to find Viscount Glaint an hour ago, and got a reply that the other party was willing to borrow 400 pounds without charging any interest.

Viscount Glaint's only request is that two Extraordinary people accompany him to the party that Mr. A will hold tonight to protect his safety. He is anxious to collect the "crown jellyfish venom crystal" to complete the "pharmacist" The preparation of potions.

——Audrey had found the "horn of an adult one-horned Pegasus" from the family treasure house, and got one out in the name of a biological experiment, which effectively offset part of her debt.

And she also put forward an additional condition, asking Viscount Grelint to use Duke Negan's children to confirm whether the giant dragon specimen in the other party's treasure house belonged to the Thousand-Faced Hunter and whether there were still lights flickering in it.

After the loan was settled, Forsi did not rush to pray to Mister Fool to complete the transaction as soon as possible, because it was too quick and would make Xio intuitively think it was wrong, thus causing doubts.

Taking advantage of her free time, Fors changed her clothes and rented a carriage to the Green Cemetery in the outskirts of the West District.

After knowing the law of indestructibility and conservation of Extraordinary characteristics, Forsi already understood that the main material for her becoming an "apprentice" was the Extraordinary characteristics left by Mrs. An Lisa, and she was equivalent to inheriting the other party's power.

So, she couldn't help but want to come here once, put a bouquet of flowers in front of Mrs. An Lisa's tombstone, and say thank you.

It was early winter at this time, and most of the flowers had already withered, but Forsi still bought a handful of elegant flowers.

This is a flower grown in a glass greenhouse, and the price is quite expensive.

Thanks to Emperor Roselle for the invention... Fors said something sincerely in her heart.

As far as she knew, most of the flowers used by the nobles at the winter banquets came from glass greenhouses, and a small amount were directly sent by airships from warm regions in the south, which was beyond the reach of ordinary middle-class people.

Standing in front of the black tombstone, Fors took a deep look at the photo belonging to Mrs. An Lisa, bent down to put down the flowers, and said softly:

"thanks."

She immediately stood up straight, closed her eyes, and quietly recalled the past.

Just then, she heard a slightly old voice:

"You are such a kind and kind lady."

Fors opened her eyes and turned her head, and found that Mr. Lawrence from the Abraham family had also appeared here at some point, also holding a bouquet of elegant flowers in his hand.

"No, it's not kindness, nor kindness. Mrs. An Lisa once brought me an unforgettable warm time when I lost my mother." Forsi said sincerely.

Her eyes suddenly became moist.

The corners of Lawrence's eyes were wrinkled, and while putting down the flowers, he sighed:

"It shows that you value friendship."

After chatting casually for a while, Forsi was about to leave, but Lawrence was waving his hand and suddenly coughed violently.

Cough cough cough!

His legs became weak from coughing, and he fell to the ground, as if he would suffocate and die at any moment.

As a doctor who graduated from a formal college, Fors turned around without hesitation, squatted down, and started first aid.

After some busy work, Lawrence's condition finally stabilized. He wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, smiled and said to Fors:

"Ma'am, can you take me back to the hotel?"

"No problem." Forsi helped the other party get up.

Lawrence looked forward, his eyes were a little out of focus, he coughed lightly, and laughed half sadly and half self-deprecatingly:

"My life may have come to an end..."
