Volume 1: The Gate of Flesh and Blood Chapter 37 Have you heard of...
No hints!
Another failure!
Those people in the lair of the 'Mist Killer' were not directly involved in the murder of his relatives.
In other words…
"Did the 'Mist Killer' do all these things alone?"
A cold light flashed in Goethe's narrowed eyes.
He could almost imagine that the 'Mist Killer' who came to Lust had targeted the Wayne family for unknown reasons, and first used Doctor Hood as a test and poisoned his grandfather. When it was confirmed that there was no danger, the other party began a killing spree.
Or even...
Massacre!
From the information he got from Morey, Goethe basically concluded that the other party had a hobby of "killing for fun".
His father, mother, three uncles, three aunts and three cousins were all killed by the other party.
Then, after a planned killing, when it was his and his brother's turn, the other party suddenly changed his mind.
It's not that I've lost interest.
It was because the other party discovered that 'his' aunt had contact with the 'Church of Flesh and Blood'.
Or, to be more precise, he was targeted by the 'Church of Flesh and Blood'!
Undoubtedly, the 'Church of Flesh and Blood' aroused greater interest from the other party - if he had died according to the other party's plan.
But he didn't.
He became Goethe.
Disrupted the other party's plans.
This made the other party stunned and angry.
A man as proud as the other party would naturally not let him go after his original plan was disrupted, and he started the backup plan almost immediately.
Unfortunately, they were disrupted one by one by him.
Even the other party himself was injured.
What will the other party do now?
Licking wounds and planning to come back?
Or should we unite more forces to deal him a fatal blow?
If there was no 'Flesh and Blood Church', the other party would definitely choose the former, but with the 'Flesh and Blood Church', the other party naturally has a better choice.
"It couldn't be any worse!"
Goethe sighed softly.
'The Killer in the Mist' + the unknown 'Son of Flesh and Blood' + the uncertain 'Big Man Luster' = Total annihilation!
Almost instantly, the answer came into Goethe's mind.
Even if Morey and Mrs. Pence were around, it would not change the result.
"We have to speed up!"
Thinking of this, Goethe looked towards the crossbow——
[Continuous Shooting Crossbow (Arm Crossbow): This is a self-defense weapon made by an excellent craftsman. It is not only concealed, but also easy to load, and can shoot three crossbow arrows in a row; however, the excellent continuous shooting crossbow brought disaster to the craftsman. 】
(Note 1: When three crossbow arrows are shot, reload is required)
(Note 2: The crossbow can be reloaded repeatedly without being damaged)
…
When he picked up the crossbow, a series of explanations appeared in Goethe's eyes.
The power of this rapid-fire crossbow may not be as strong as a pistol, but it is concealed enough.
Goethe always liked unexpected attacks.
Moreover, this is the second time I came up empty-handed.
Although Goethe had just started fishing, he felt that he had to do something to change his bad luck!
At least, we can't let bad luck spread!
When he saw Goethe pick up the crossbow and put it directly on his left hand, Swart simply picked up the "record sheet" that his men had just written and tore off the page related to the crossbow.
“Re-record.”
The sheriff said.
My subordinates immediately re-recorded it.
Everyone is used to this kind of thing, including Mrs. Pence.
Mrs. Pence said again this time -
"Let's go and find Morey."
This time, Goethe did not refuse again, but before leaving, he whispered to Swart.
“Be careful!”
"I hope it's safe enough!"
If possible, Goethe doesn't want anything to happen to a useful partner like Swart.
Likewise, I hope I can be safe.
Swart reacted immediately.
"Madam, please wait!"
"It's dark and the roads are slippery."
"Let me arrange the carriage!"
After saying this, without waiting for Mrs. Pence to refuse, he raised his hand and called for his police carriage.
Mrs. Burns thought for a moment, nodded to Swart, and got into the carriage.
This time, although Mrs. Pence still frowned, the disgust on her face was less.
Goethe got on the bus later, and when the two passed each other, Swart mouthed "I understand".
Swart had long understood Goethe's character. His caution was unique among all the people he had ever met. Just like at this moment, even though he was traveling with an extraordinary person, he was still looking for more helpers - the coachman of this farewell carriage was his subordinate, so he would naturally remember the destination clearly, and then he would go there with a team of fully armed men.
Swart did not resist this.
Because there are considerable benefits here.
Two lanterns were lit.
The driver raised his whip.
Bang!
After a crisp sound.
The carriage quickly disappeared into the night.
When the carriage stopped again, it had returned to Fife Street.
Finally, the carriage stopped in front of 11 Rue de Fevres.
"here?"
Goethe was startled, then suddenly realized.
Morey, who was seriously injured, must choose a safe place to recuperate. What could be better than in a hidden place?
Of course, there is someone you completely trust by your side!
Without knocking, Mrs. Pence took out her key and walked in.
“This is my property too.”
Mrs. Pence said.
Obviously, as a retiree who keeps secrets, Mrs. Pence is wealthy enough.
In the living room, Morey was thinking with his eyes closed.
After hearing the noise, I saw Mrs. Burns and Goethe.
A hint of surprise flashed across the face of the official Luster person in charge of the extraordinary.
Then, things got serious.
"what happened?"
Morley stood up and asked.
He knew very well that since Mrs. Burns brought Goethe with her, something extremely important must have happened.
"Let Goethe tell you the story. He experienced it firsthand."
Mrs. Burns stepped aside and handed over full authority to Goethe.
"Before, at No. 32, Little Durian Street..."
In addition to hiding the book about the 'Church of Flesh and Blood', Goethe recounted his experiences in detail. At the same time, he also expressed his own speculations, including the possible alliance between the 'Killer in the Fog' and the 'Church of Flesh and Blood', as well as his 'report'.
Morey, who was already serious, began to look solemn as he listened to Goethe's story.
When he heard that the 'Mist Killer' and the 'Church of Flesh and Blood' had joined forces, he clenched his fists even more.
Mrs. Pence frowned and paced unconsciously.
"no."
"We must call for emergency support!"
Mrs. Pence said after she paused.
"Um."
"I'll do it right away."
Morey did what he said and took action immediately.
This complex and extraordinary official turned and went upstairs.
About ten minutes later, the other party returned.
"Support will arrive at noon tomorrow at the earliest."
Morey said.
"Tomorrow at noon?"
"Just in case, I'll set up some traps."
Mrs. Burns said this, and stood up and walked out of the house.
Suddenly, Goethe and Morey were the only ones left in the room.
"Warehouse Street, no one."
"Some people stayed briefly but have long since left."
"I'm not sure it's that guy."
Morey immediately informed Goethe of his investigation results.
Goethe did not speak immediately. He looked directly into the other person's eyes. When Morey was about to feel awkward, he asked, "Under what circumstances would make a big shot like the owner of the Pine Nut Hotel give up everything and cooperate with a notorious organization?"
"Morey, I want to know the answer."
"At least, this way, even if I die, I can rest in peace."
“I don’t want to die in confusion.”
Goethe emphasized.
Morey smiled bitterly, with hesitation in his expression.
Then, seeing Goethe staring at him without blinking, the official in charge of the extraordinary sighed.
Morey compromised.
"Goethe, have you ever heard of 'Secret Realm'?"
