Chapter 215: The Blame Blame

West District, No. 9 Hope Street, Prime Minister's Residence.

Agassid Negan stood behind the large table, looking solemnly at Earl Hall opposite him:

"Your Excellency, my secretary should have told you what happened. You are the first nobleman I think of at this moment."

The Conservative Party leader, the current Prime Minister of the Cabinet, suddenly aged several years. His tall and thin figure seemed to be unable to bear the bad news and leaned forward slightly, so that he had to support the table with his hands.

But his eyes are still sharp, and his attitude is still calm.

Earl Hall with two beautiful mustaches sighed:

"I'm sorry to hear this news. It shocked me very much. I was planning to visit His Excellency the Duke in the past few days to discuss the several bills that we are all concerned about. Who knows, he was attacked..."

His youthful handsome appearance was ruined by deep nasolabial folds and a fat state. He first expressed his condolences, grief and sympathy, and then restrained his emotions and said:

"Your Excellency the Duke has died. Instead of crying and anger, we need to be more cautious and calm. Only in this way can we deal with the follow-up matters and prevent the heavy steam train of the kingdom from rushing off the track."

"That's why I came to you in the first place. The other nobles would only call out to the gods, trembling with fear, and expressed that they could not accept it. They demanded that the murderer be punished immediately and find the mastermind behind the scenes. In their view, the duke under heavy protection They will all be assassinated, let alone them?" Prime Minister Agucide said in a deep voice, "This is a normal, natural and understandable reaction, but it is not the reaction we need."

Earl Hall nodded, then asked:

"Who is the murderer? What is the motive?"

"A demon who pretended to be a banker for more than ten years, a real demon, by the way, your Bavat Bank just acquired his property." Aguhid stated without any change in tone.

"Patrick Jason?" Earl Hall immediately remembered the other person's name.

It was he who approved the acquisition involving the bank.

Prime Minister Aguhid did not blame the other party, thinking about it and said:

"He has a Sequence 5, but he suddenly sold his property, discarded his identity that he had been in business for more than ten years, and took great risks to assassinate my brother. Based on this, we can make a strong guess that he was influenced by someone or someone. It is a pity that he was killed by someone on the way to escape, and even his spirit body was taken away, according to the report of the Nighthawks, it was the thief 'Dark Emperor' who did it."

"An extremely secretive organization is involved, and we can't figure it out in a short time?" Earl Hall asked.

"Yes, the so-called rogue didn't leave any traces. We can only start with those who have contacted Jason in the past few months. This will take a lot of time and may not be fruitful." Agusid gave Yes.

Earl Hall took two steps and said:

"What is His Majesty's attitude?"

"Sad, but no specific thoughts." Aguhid replied.

Earl Hall frowned and thought about it:

"Since this is the case, the important thing is no longer who is behind the scenes, but what purpose we want to achieve through this matter. If we want war and restart the colonial struggle, then tell the people and instruct Patrick Jason It is the Feysac Empire, and we will make up a detailed process for them, and show some evidence that seems to be the case. In the past hundreds of thousands of years, our neighbor in the north has always played a similar role. I think everyone They should be used to it and won't question it, it's very, very, very normal for barbarians to do this kind of thing."

"And the people are afraid of them." Prime Minister Agucide twitched the corners of his mouth without a smile, "However, we are making a series of changes, and we will not be able to stabilize until the second half of next year at the earliest, and have the ability to wage war."

Earl Hall pondered and said:

"Then find someone that everyone can accept. The grand thief 'Dark Emperor' is too mysterious, and the secret organization behind him is even more so. If it is announced like this,

It will certainly cause great panic, people are always afraid of the unknown and not well understood.

"Well, what about the 'Aurora Society'? They only assassinated Intis, that sensualist a few months ago, and it wouldn't be surprising if they did anything else.

"Their reputation is bad enough. Their situation has been repeatedly told by newspapers and magazines, and they have even become horror elements and classic villains in many novels. Moreover, this can effectively dispel other people's suspicion of us. There are always people who think that the previous assassination The event was commissioned by us from the 'Aurora Society'.

"Also, take advantage of the opportunity to crack down on terrorist organizations and illegal organizations, and clean up Backlund. There are too many dangerous guys hiding here."

Agushid said "hmm":

"'Aurora Club' is a good candidate...

"Target them first, wait until next year, when we are ready, and then announce the results of the investigation, accusing the Feysac Empire of driving the 'Aurora Society', I don't think anyone will care about the justifications of terrorist organizations and northern barbarians."

Earl Hall was stunned for a moment and said:

"It's a step further than I thought."

Aguhid said no more, stood up straight and said:

"I'm going to meet His Majesty the King now."

Having said that, he glanced at Earl Hall:

"You should also pay attention to your safety. We haven't figured out the motives of those people who assassinated my brother. Hmph, the Church of Storms has agreed to replace the Archbishop of Backlund Diocese. Snake is always late at critical moments! Believers of Storms always So irritable, irritable, stubborn, arrogant, easy to be mobilized!"

"Don't be prejudiced. For example, Lurmi is very wise." Earl Hall first gave a low laugh, and then nodded four times on his chest, "Thank you, the goddess will bless me."

"The Twilight Hermit Society... sounds very compelling..." Klein returned to the real world and got up and pressed the mechanical button of the toilet.

Amidst the sound of running water, he walked out of the bathroom, thinking about the information he had just obtained through "psychic communication".

He suspected that the "Twilight Hermit Society" was the ancient organization that possessed the second slate of blasphemy that Emperor Roselle joined.

For the sake of the so-called historical process, it sounds absurd to choose someone to assassinate Duke Negan, but it seems reasonable... Their goal is to resurrect or awaken the original creator? This is somewhat close to the concept of the City of Silver. The little "sun" never believed that the Lord who created everything had passed away, and only accepted the statement that He abandoned that area, and kept trying to get a response... Klein paced back and forth, exhaling himself thoughts.

After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly heard a knock on the door.

It wasn't a waiter or maid from the Kragg Club outside, but a member of the "Mechanical Heart" that Klein had seen before, Carlson wearing thick glasses.

"How did you get in?" Klein blurted out on purpose.

Seeing that he was indeed in the room, Carlson obviously relaxed. Seeing that there was no one around, he smiled and said:

"As an Extraordinary, there are always various ways."

He received the news from Deacon Ikanser, knowing about the death of the "Apostle of Desire", and then came to confirm my situation, and my performance was quite successful, the "Great Transformation" was not exposed, and successfully concealed the past ... Klein's heart moved slightly:

"Your expression tells me that there is good news?"

"Yes, Patrick Jason Beria has been killed. You are safe and don't need to accept our protection anymore." Carlson said truthfully.

With such feedback, Klein felt that the potion in his body seemed to speed up his digestion.

Surprised and delighted, he asked back:

"Sure?"

"Sure." Carlson gave an affirmative answer.

"This is really great!" Klein said happily.

Carlson glanced at him and sincerely praised:

"Your detective intuition and logical thinking gave us the most important help. The deacon said in the letter that he will secretly give you a reward, about 1,000 pounds."

1,000 pounds... not bad, very generous! However, even if the banknotes under Jason's suitcase are all in denominations of 5 pounds and 1 pound, even if his jewelry is not too expensive, the total is about 50,000 pounds... Mary from the Air Pollution Investigation Committee Madame, counting the value of Coim's shares, it is at most this kind of net worth...

Well, Jason's accomplice who put on human skin and was responsible for distracting the "Singer of the Gods" probably took some of them away, and the rest is estimated to be 20,000 to 30,000 pounds, but this is still incomparable with 1,000 pounds, which is really regrettable. ...I can't think of it this way, maybe Jason's accomplices took away all the belongings ahead of time... Klein was momentarily disappointed and joyful.

And the bounty given by "Mechanical Heart" further proves the success of his performance during this period, making him feel that he is only one step away from completely digesting the "magician" potion.

"This is what I should do. After all, I am the one being threatened." Klein said with a smile.

He wasn't worried that Jason's accomplices would retaliate in the future, because this retaliation was just a cover, and more importantly, he would definitely be a Sequence 6 by then.

Carlson pushed down his glasses and said after deliberation:

"Sherlock, you are also a believer in God. We hope to establish a good relationship with you. In the future, you can tell us what happens to you and what information you collect."

This is the informant who developed me to be the "Mechanical Heart"... I have another reimbursement channel... Klein solemnly drew the triangular holy emblem on his chest:

"no problem."

…………

Klein, who was no longer protected by the "Mechanical Heart", stayed in the Kragg Club until after dinner, then took a carriage and slowly returned to No. 15 Minsk Street.

He habitually opened the letter box and saw a new letter, one without a stamp.

This letter was left by Detective Isenger Stanton after his unsuccessful visit in the afternoon. He wrote:

"...I heard the advice you gave from the heart of the machine. Your sensitivity and rigor are shocking. If you hadn't become a Extraordinary, I even think that 'reader' is the most suitable path for you.

"You are the best reasoning young man I have ever seen!"

...

Klein stood in the living room, reading the letter left by Isinger by the light of the gas wall lamp.

There was nothing new about this performance, it was step by step, repeated before, and it didn't even play a big role... But the advantage was that there were enough audiences, and they were all around me, so I could get feedback directly... Klein took Reading the letter paper, I suddenly felt something.

He half closed his eyes, only felt that something in his body was rapidly disintegrating and dissipating, only felt that many illusory stars appeared around him, only felt that those bright lights were very weakly attracted to each other.

In the last month of 1349, his "magician" potion was finally digested.
