Although Klein's plan was detailed and feasible, it was too scary to be promoted to the next Sequence just one month after taking Potion. Under the persuasion of Angel, he decided to wait until the end of August, which was about 2 months after taking "Seer" Potion, to submit a special application.
With this "genius" taking the lead, Angel felt that he could follow suit and submit an application.
It's a pity that Instigator's performance is currently stuck at a bottleneck. She already feels that a small part of Potion in her body has been digested, but in the end she still has to wait for "Wild Bear Gang" and "Labor Mutual Aid Society" to enter her preset "trap", and they will trap each other under Instigation, and they will eventually be captured by the police together.
It was another sunny weekend afternoon. Angel was sitting in Blackthorn Security Company's Recreation Room with a yawn, flipping through the newspapers of the previous day.
The quality of her sleep has plummeted in the past few days, and she always seems to recall the two times of using "Magician Pocket Watch" in her dreams. Of course, it is not the pleasant experience of getting "Magician" Beyonder Ability in those ten minutes, but the tragic experience of "not seeing the light" in the twelve hours after that.
In the dream, the two-story house 6 Daffodil Street where Angel lived was brightly lit, just like daytime, while she huddled in the corner of the basement, avoiding the light sources that could be seen everywhere.
These gas lamps would float in the air, chasing her like ghosts, making it impossible for her to hide in the same place for a long time, so she could only hide around and run exhausted.
This caused her to wake up from nightmares almost every night and go downstairs to make sure all the gas lights were turned off before she could go back to sleep.
Do you want to go to the captain and ask about the dream... He is "Nightmare", he should have a lot of experience in this, right?
Angel looked in the direction of Dunn Smith's office. The office was empty at this time and the door was locked. The captain went to Lamud Town northwest of Tingen City with Klein and Frye at noon, where a believer of Evernight Goddess encountered extraordinary power and was haunted by a ghost. They brought a Sealed Artifact that can Purification undead to the scene to solve this incident involving extraordinary power.
Since the town is a full three hours' drive from the Tingen City area, they expected to spend the night in the town and come back the next day.
It's really inconvenient to travel only by horse-drawn carriage...
After expressing regret for Klein who couldn't go home for the night, Angel continued to look through the newspaper in his hand and successfully found a curly-haired baboon joke in the entertainment section of "Tingen City Honest People's Newspaper".
This is her agreement with the current person in power of "Labor Mutual Aid Society", Vaughn. If "Wild Bear Gang" agrees to negotiate and divide the territory again on the table, he will publish such a message in the newspaper.
It seems it's time to prepare to close the net...
Seeing that the target was successfully led to "destruction" by her Instigation, Angel could feel that the Potion in her body was being digested a little.
Maybe you don't need to wait to submit the special report of "Mastering the Assassin Potion", you can completely digest "Instigator" Potion.
"Dong dong——"
Just when Angel was thinking about his future promotion path, there was a knock on the door of the lounge.
"Please come in."
Angel replied, putting down the newspaper and tidying up his clothes.
The door was opened, and a head of unruly black hair squeezed in from the crack of the door. "Midnight Poet" Leonard's green eyes scanned the room, and finally stopped at Angel.
"Are you alone? Where's the captain?"
"He went to Lamud Town, taking Klein and Frye with him. I'm afraid he won't be able to come back until tomorrow."
Leonard then pushed the door completely open, still wearing the windbreaker as a cloak. Hearing Angel's reply, he thought for a moment with a disappointed look on his face, and nodded as if he had made some decision.
"Then you can come with me to Park Street of West Borough. The police have forwarded a case that may involve extraordinary powers."
What do you mean, I can do that, as if I am just a substitute...
After complaining in his heart, Angel stood up from the sofa obediently, followed Leonard to leave Blackthorn Security Company, and caught the hired carriage to West Borough.
The hired carriage was parked in the corner of Park Street, less than two hundred meters away from the largest Street Park in the entire West Borough. Looking towards the park along with the setting sun, one could see the lush vegetation and children playing in the park.
"Let me warn you first, the scene may be a little bloody."
Leonard, who was the first to get out of the carriage, said with a mysterious face. He turned his eyes towards the direction of the park and followed his line of sight. Angel found a police carriage parked at the door of a three-story building. Two policemen were guarding the door, using stern faces and pistols on their waists Intimidation to watch the passing people.
"Have you come in advance?"
Seeing how sure he was, Angel asked curiously.
"Of course not. I just received the news, but they would rather stand at the gate than go in. The scene is definitely not optimistic."
With a smile on his face, Leonard evaluated Tingen City Police Department's behavior mercilessly. Only when he approached the two policemen did he return to his serious face, took Inspector Badge out of his pocket and put it on his left chest.
"Gentlemen, I am Inspector Mitchell from the Seventh Group of the Special Operations Department, and this is Inspector Granger, trainee."
The two policemen who were waiting at the door came forward as if they had seen a savior.
"Mr. Inspector, thank you for coming to support so quickly. The murder scene is inside. We notified you immediately after discovering the abnormality and did not disturb the scene."
"Very well, you take us in, and the other one continues to guard the door. Don't let irrelevant people approach."
Leonard gave the order skillfully. The policeman who was called to see the gate stood there happily, while the other one led the two Nighthawks into the building with a grimace.
Behind the door is not a living room, but a cloakroom, luxuriously decorated and full of beauty. The spacious space is equipped with shoe cabinets, coat racks, and seats for changing shoes on both sides. The gas lamp on the top illuminates the room brightly.
But the two of them had no time to admire the furnishings that clearly belonged to a wealthy family.
As soon as they entered the door, a strong smell of blood poured into Angel's nostrils. However, there was no blood visible to the naked eye in the cloakroom, and there were no other exits except the door they entered and the door leading to the hall.
The only possibility is...
The policeman leading the way glanced at the two inspectors before carefully pushing open the copper-clad double wooden doors leading to the hall.
The smell of blood that was ten times stronger hit his face, and the substance-like smell made Angel tilt his head back involuntarily.
Even though Leonard, who had learned about the case in advance and was partially mentally prepared, took a deep breath, but his whole face wrinkled together as he inhaled more bloody smell.
The policeman who pushed open the door and faced the scene had a lump in his throat and almost felt sick. He took a few steps back until he reached the door on the other side of the cloakroom and stood still.
Behind the double Door Opening is a "murder scene" like a slaughterhouse.
