Red Hair clenched his fingers, "I... I understand. ¢小^税!C`M`S_ .蕪′错¨content-"
"Go ahead."
Watching Red Hair call a pirate to walk into the bottom of the ship, Edward suddenly muttered: "Why do I feel... that I am not acting like a good person now?"
Lilith immediately said, "You should be the bad guy!"
"Why?"
"Because good people will be bullied by bad people."
"Well, what you said makes sense."
"Yes!"
"But that's not a reason for you to be a bad cat!"
"Oh, all right."
Christine always told Miss Lilith not to be a good person, but Edward didn't let me be a bad person.
So should we be a good guy or a bad guy?
Oh!
Life is not easy for a cat, Lilith sighed again and again.
...
No name.
Early the next morning,
Klein was awakened by a woman's sharp scream.
Something happened.
But he was not surprised at all.
This feels like those detective novels I read in the past. When a group of people get together or embark on a journey, it would be abnormal if everything goes smoothly.
Klein put on his clothes and hat, wrapped himself in a fluffy scarf, and flicked out the coin before going out.
Numbers facing up indicate no danger.
As soon as he went out, he saw three or four bodyguards gathered at the door of six or seven rooms. They were looking into the room with shocked expressions.
Klein became more alert and walked over slowly. Several bodyguards immediately made way for him.
"What's wrong?"
He asked casually.
A bodyguard said solemnly: "Miss Adelaide who lived in Room 6... died. She was found by Miss Olivia who came to call her for breakfast."
"What was the cause of death?"
The bodyguard hesitated and said, "It's hard to say."
Klein walked in and found Aldridge bending over the bed to examine the body. He took a few steps closer and the moment he saw the body, he finally understood why the bodyguards had that expression and why they said, "It's hard to say what the cause of death was."
The corpse lying on the bed had skin that was pale and rotten. The young skin that should have been plump and smooth was now as dry as bark, wrapped around the bones. It was a complete mummy - the fear before death still remained on the bony face.
Aldridge stood up straight now. "She's been drained of all the blood."
"Drain?"
"Well, look here."
Aldridge stepped aside a little and pointed to the obvious bite wound on the body's neck.
Klein raised an eyebrow: "Was it a vampire?"
Klein had heard of vampires before, and later met Emlyn at the Harvest Church, who always emphasized that he was a "vampire."
After several contacts, Klein also learned from Emlyn that the vampires living in Backlund had reached a consensus with the church and the country long ago - they could suck blood, but they must not hurt people.
Unexpectedly, this time when going out to sea, I encountered a suspected vampire murder case.
Aldridge shook his head, his face solemn: "I am worried now. If it is really a vampire, then he is probably still hiding among us... and will attack the next person at any time."
"Who do you think he could be?"
Aldridge smiled bitterly, "I don't know."
Klein thought for a moment and said, "Based on my understanding of vampires, even if they are hungry and want to suck blood, there is no need for them to suck someone's blood dry and kill someone.
"Please go out and help keep watch. I'll try to find more clues."
"good!"
Aldridge was decisive. He walked out quickly and closed the door.
Klein clicked his teeth lightly and activated his spiritual vision. "Sure enough, her spirit has long dissipated."
Fortunately, this is not a real detective novel, and I don't have to collect clues like a detective to find out the truth.
Klein took two steps back and took out the relevant materials. After a spell, he silently recited the divination phrase in the quiet and distant fragrance and the cold wind surrounding him:
"The cause of Miss Adelaide's death."
"The cause of Miss Adelaide's death."
…
Klein muttered to himself as he sat down on the sofa.
Then his eyes turned black, he leaned back, and quickly fell into a deep sleep.
In the unreal, blurred and hazy world, he suddenly saw Miss Adelaide lying quietly on the bed. Perhaps because the room was stuffy, she lifted the quilt aside, revealing her thin pajamas, and a large area of snow-white skin was clearly visible.
At this moment, the door was quietly opened, and a dark shadow rushed in, then pounced on Adelaide, covered her mouth while biting the aorta in her neck, and then greedily swallowed the gushing blood.
As Adelaide lost blood, his vitality quickly disappeared, and his originally plump and elastic skin quickly shriveled up until it became what it is now.
At this moment, the dark shadow lying on her stood up, turned his head and revealed a mouth full of blood - this face was Olivia!
The picture quickly shattered, and Klein opened his eyes and woke up from his dream.
Olivia was one of the two ladies who approached Edward on the White Agate. She was also the blonde woman who walked out of the cabin when Klein sneaked into the ship the day before. She was also the first person to discover Adelaide's death.
Chapter 393 Whoever comes must be grabbed
"…Is this what they call a murderer always returning to the crime scene?"
Klein looked at Adelaide, who died with her eyes open. He hesitated for a moment, put on his gloves, and gently closed her eyes. "I'm sorry, although I couldn't prevent your death, I will definitely catch your murderer!"
As he opened the door, he saw Aldridge leaning against the opposite wall with his arms folded.
"how's it going?"
"Do I know who the murderer is?"
He was stunned: "You know?"
Klein said calmly, "Divination."
Aldridge suddenly realized, and then lowered his voice: "Who?"
"Olivia."
He was stunned, "How could it be her?"
"You seem surprised?"
Aldridge said: "...This bodyguard mission was actually commissioned by her. In other words, she is my real employer."
Klein smiled coldly: "So how do you plan to deal with your murderous and blood-sucking employer?"
"…"
He was silent for a moment. "I'm not a policeman, nor am I a member of the church, so I have no obligation to catch the murderer. I just need to control her and prevent her from committing more crimes next time."
Klein said, "Don't forget, she is most likely a vampire, and the lowest level of a vampire is Sequence 7."
After spending time together yesterday, Klein already knew that Aldridge was a Sequence 7 Weapon Master of the Warrior Path. In addition to him, there was a Sequence 8 Fighter, two Sequence 9 Hunters, and a Sailor among the bodyguards.
Aldridge thought for a moment and said, "I'll go talk to Miss Olivia first. If it doesn't work, I'll take action."
Klein touched the glove on his left hand that was so thin that it seemed to be made of human skin. He said expressionlessly, "As you wish."
...
Bang bang bang!
Three pirates turned into blood and flesh, and the remaining six or seven also quickly underwent various mutations, but were immediately engulfed by the bright red flames and burned to ashes.
The whole process was done in one go.
Edward clapped his hands and returned to the pirate ship.
As soon as he stepped out of the Traveler's Door, he saw the pirates lowering their heads one after another, no longer having the initial excitement and excitement.
This is not surprising. Anyone who witnessed their companions being taken away one after another and never returning would know that something was wrong.
During the process, some brave and powerful pirates tried to resist, but they were dealt with by Lilith without Edward having to do anything.
Now these pirates were more afraid of Lilith, the "dwarf witch" than Edward. After all, they did not see Edward kill anyone with their own eyes, but Lilith killed more than a dozen people in front of them - yes, they believed that Lilith was actually a dwarf!
"You've been spreading this news for more than a day, and you've been offering sacrifices every two hours to spread the news. Why hasn't anyone come to find you yet?"
Edward asked, looking at the red-haired man with dissatisfaction.
Red Hair whispered, "They are already on their way. We have confirmed that eight ships are on their way. They will arrive one after another this afternoon and evening."
"Are you sure?"
"Sure!"
Edward felt the progress of the potion's digestion. If seven or eight ships of pirates came every day, the potion would be completely digested in less than a month.
But even if you think about it with your knees, you will know that this is impossible.
In this way, the imparting of Outer God knowledge must also be carried out simultaneously. If every pirate is equipped with Outer God knowledge, the digestion speed should be able to be increased by at least one third!
