On Sunday morning, after Klein got up, he found that the map of Backlund on the coffee table in the living room had several places circled, and they were not too far apart. This must be the clue left by Sharon, preparation for the upcoming battle.

The venue. So, he followed the prompts and spent the whole morning getting familiar with the surrounding environment carefully, figuring out what buildings there were and where the nearest church was.

In the afternoon, when he became free again, he went to the Cragg Club again. As soon as he entered the lobby, he saw Alan Kress, a surgeon with a cane who had been having bad luck recently, slowly coming out of the cafeteria.

"Alan, how are you doing lately? Has your luck gotten better?"

"At least it's not so unlucky!" A heartfelt smile appeared on Allen's face, which was naturally cold-looking. "I followed your suggestion, went to the church, and told the bishop what happened. While praying, I actually fell asleep.

But I seemed to feel that the goddess had given me a state of peace and tranquility. Since then, my fortune has been normal! Praise the goddess!"

He drew a crimson moon on his chest.

According to my experience, it should be a certain Sequence 7 "nightmare" that put you into a deep sleep, and then the Nighthawks who are good at rituals quickly set up the altar and prayed to the goddess to neutralize your bad luck... Klein raised an eyebrow

The corner of his mouth said: "This is really great!"

At this time, Allen glanced at him and said: "Sherlock, I have always felt that your belief in the God of Steam and Machinery is not pious enough. Why don't you convert? Look, there is an example of me here, believe in the goddess!"

"

Isn't this making things difficult for me? Hearing Allen's request, Klein almost drew a crimson moon on his chest, but in the end he resisted the urge and responded to the other party very seriously:

"Perhaps some of my performance caused you to misunderstand."

"But I must tell you that faith is something that cannot be changed once it is decided."

Allen immediately raised his arms and made an apologetic gesture: "I'm sorry, I misunderstood your piety. I shouldn't have made fun of your faith."

"Okay, differences in beliefs do not prevent us from being friends."

Klein put away the expression he had just faked and smiled:

"This sentence is not true in Fusac and Feneport. They can only accept one belief."

At this moment, Klein saw another person slowly walking out of the restaurant. The person's hair seemed to be a little longer, and the dark brown hair had already touched his shoulders. The angel should be able to control his body, but he could actually do it.

Will you let your hair grow as it pleases?

His lips seemed to be moving slightly, as if he was talking to himself.

Klein greeted: "Mr. Edward."

Edward turned his head after hearing this, with a smile on his face. Dr. Allen was not familiar with him, but they were both from the same club, and they had met him several times, so they nodded to each other to show goodwill.

Thinking that he still had something he was curious about, and it wasn't a secret, Klein changed the subject casually: "Did you see Will Auceptin later? He was the one who had one of his legs amputated, and said you

Children who will have bad luck."

Edward did not join their conversation. In Klein's opinion, High Sequence was not interested in such ordinary extraordinary events.

"No, I haven't seen him since he was discharged from the hospital." Allen shook his head affirmatively, feeling a chill for no reason.

Edward glanced at him silently, then looked away.

What a pity. Nighthawks can find the place according to the address registered in the hospital, but I can't intervene rashly... Of course, the child might have moved away long ago... But it has nothing to do with me... Klein chatted with Allen

After a few words, the other party left first because he had something to do. Edward then turned his head (he had been staring at the corner in a daze just now) and asked curiously: "Did something happen to Mr. Chris?"

"After Mr. Allen performed an operation on a child, his luck strangely worsened." Klein briefly summarized the cause, process, and results of the incident, and also tried to obtain some high-sequence reasoning from his fellow villagers, "I suggest

He went to the goddess's church to pray."

Edward nodded and said to him pleasantly: "This method of handling is the most orthodox and simplest. His luck has been affected. It may have nothing to do with the child. It is most likely due to the negative effects of the extraordinary items in the destiny pathway.

.After all, it’s normal for children to have high levels of inspiration, just because that sentence created some psychological implications.”

Klein felt it made sense and put it behind him.

At this time, two more acquaintances came in at the door, one was Mrs. Mary, a member of the Kingdom's Air Pollution Investigation Committee and a shareholder of Coim Company, and the other was Mrs. Summer, Klein's landlord. They were all wearing relatively light skirts,

Looks much younger.

They saw Edward from a distance, and also saw the great detective Mr. Sherlock, who was chatting happily with Edward.

Edward acted as if he hadn't seen the two ladies, and passed by them without looking away. Mrs. Mary, who hurriedly covered her face with a feather fan and was about to step forward to talk, hesitated to speak, and felt embarrassed by the other party's simple and rude disregard.

, and quickly pulled Mrs. Summer into the hall. Klein smiled and went to say hello to them.

"It's the snake of mercury." said the King of Decay, "Will."

"I know that He will not change his name. This name is an important part of His humanity. When it appears together with luck, there is a high probability that it is because of Him." No one saw that Edward Vaughan had just left the club.

, the smile on his face disappeared without a trace, and turned into a kind of frightening indifference. He muttered something in his mouth, as if he was talking to someone, standing on the street, like a star separating the flow of people.

reef.

"What a surprising piece of information."

"Will was allowed to run away so easily. It seems that Ourolius has nothing to worry about now."

"The True Creator has not taken the initiative to communicate with me recently." Edward looked for the back of Alan Kress in the crowd, but he had been away for some time and had long since disappeared.

It was daytime now, and it was too strange for him to take the initiative to go to the other party's clinic to find someone. What's more, it was still unclear what role this person would play in Will Asceptin's reboot: "I didn't tell the story about Medici either.

Tell him that he has not been in a normal state of mind recently, and the pollution is gradually eroding his memory and consciousness. Oh, he also discovered it, but attributed it to misfortune and misfortune. This is also the conclusion after his judgment has been affected."

"Let's do this for now. When his judgment ability is weakened to a certain extent, I will take the initiative to exert influence."

The Decline King's tone is still as dull as dead water. Only certain things can cheer him up: "It's almost time to take action. I recently went to the East District to take a look. There is a certain point in the decline of the human race.

arrive."

“Natural disaster or man-made disaster?”

"Man-made disaster."

"Ha." Edward couldn't help laughing, "Demons have never been a race that enjoys killing each other, but humans are different..."

Before he finished speaking, an oncoming person in the deserted alley suddenly bumped into him with great force. But Edward did not move. Instead, he was staggered. Edward touched his pocket and found that his wallet was missing.

At the same time, the ragged man quickly put something into his pocket and ran deeper into the area without looking back.

"...Where are you going, sacrifice?"

Edward stood there and spoke to his back: "You sold your life to me, and your internal organs will be used for divination."

…………

After a while, Edward arrived in front of a townhouse in the eastern part of Backlund according to the divination results. The people walking around were generally neatly dressed, equipped with top hats and canes. The occasional lady who could be seen was also wearing fabrics

Expensive skirts and jewelry made of precious stones. Obviously, this should be a middle-class residential street.

After a preliminary survey of the surrounding environment and geography, Edward put on a smile again and asked the nearby residents about the residence of the Ascetin family. He looked gentle and noble, and his elegant words and deeds could easily make people like him.

After more than ten minutes of investigation, he had collected all the current impressions of the neighbors on the Ascetin family.

There are four members of the Ascetin family, including the businessman Mr. and Mrs. Ascetin and their two children, one older and one younger.

The eldest son has reached the age where he can help his parents in the business. The younger son did not go to school because of his frailty and stayed at home. After the birth of the younger son, the business of the Aucetins became better and better, and their lives were no longer tight. Therefore, they

The younger son, who is in poor health, is raised well as a lucky star and all his requirements are met. A tutor is also hired to teach him.

But for some reason, the youngest son developed a strange tumor on his leg. He had to undergo surgery and amputation, and spent a lot of money to finally cure it. The Aucetins also made enough money, and the family of four hurriedly moved to

A nicer part of town.

It took ten minutes to investigate and two hours to listen to the family members. When Edward finally sent away these enthusiastic neighbors, it was already dark.

"Do you want to catch up and have a look?" Edward said to himself, "Will Auceptin will definitely not be indifferent and gain nothing."

"He will seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Whether you go or not is a part of today's destiny. We can just wait for His next move." The Declined King replied, "His illness is cured, which should mean that he successfully escaped.

The pursuit of Ourolius. So it is unknown whether he will continue to hide with his current identity or whether he will find another home and restart."

"Anyway, it is impossible for the Destiny Path to become a true god before the end. Waiting for that "opportunity" is enough to kill them. Not to mention that there are rings of destiny and many gods outside who are eyeing their source matter. Wu

The fight between Loleuus and Will is nothing to worry about."

"Um."

"Keep an eye on Dr. Allen." Edward thought, "I remember he has a wife and children, and he is still young."

In the East District, in the principal's room of the Ernst Charity School, Maria took advantage of the evening sunshine to flip through the files she had compiled over the past few days. On them were the names of boys and girls, most of whom were under the age of 20. This section of the East District

The main group of people missing in time.

There are more and more people.

Capin was furious because of the huge losses, and began to arrest people wantonly in the East District. The scope of his targets expanded, and his revenge was almost indiscriminate. During this time, even the homeless did not dare to walk alone on the road.

Be patient, Mary, be patient, and you will save them.

After working together with Mr. Z, the Pilgrimage Sect received a share of 6,500 pounds, which is a huge amount of money. This year, the leader may not need to allocate funds, and the East District can also renovate and expand its facilities.

Taking into account the future cooperation, Mr. Z originally wanted to give more, but for some reasons (Aurora Society's best employee assessment) he tearfully accepted 3,500 pounds of funds and a huge amount of merit worth 10,000 pounds. It is said that

Mr. Z laughed so hard that his mouth burst into tears, and a serious civil war broke out in the Aurora Club the night he returned.
