familiar call

"Mr. Sugar, are you feeling unwell? Why are you sweating so much?" Reese asked.

Su Ge quickly recovered from the shock, waved his hands, deliberately made a painful expression, and said:

"I've just never experienced such a unique taste."

"I'm very sorry, I was a little distracted just now, and accidentally..." Reese felt very guilty.

"No, it doesn't matter at all, but if possible, I'd like to change it to a normal drink."

Su Ge left Reese and walked to a corner where no one was around.

The small incident of adding ink to a drink just now made Su Ge alert. If that was considered a small-probability unfortunate incident, it proved one thing.

The result of divination is correct.

Suddenly, Su Ge felt that the air around him was starting to radiate a chill, as if a pair of eyes hidden in the darkness were watching his every move.

The cold hairs on Su Ge's arms all stood up, feeling the slight flow of air and trembling at the same time.

Still at the Faure Mansion, who could it be?

Without considering the purpose, Sugar found after analysis that there are two possibilities.

The first type is that the killer is a person who has never appeared before. After successfully killing Ramos, he hides in the Foel Mansion and prepares to find a suitable opportunity to escape.

If this is the case, the police cannot be allowed to retreat. They only need to maintain this state until dawn, and they can easily find it when there is sufficient light.

The second is that the killer is someone in the Foel Mansion, and it is very likely that he is one of the guests who came. Because there is a rift between him and Ramos, he will find a suitable opportunity to kill Ramos.

Moss killed him and used his identity as a "guest" to evade police arrest.

If it is the second case, then you only need to wait for the police investigation.

Su Ge knew that killing must have a purpose. Even the serial killer would not just walk on the street and kill people casually. Since there is a purpose, there are clues. As long as he can follow the clues, no matter how hard the other party hides, they will be exposed.

.

Of the two situations, Su Ge actually preferred the second one. After all, the second one was more reasonable. If it was really a hired murder, the difficulty of the investigation would skyrocket.

Thinking of this, Su Ge planned to question the previous police officer later, but only with Neo's permission.

At this time, Su Ge saw Sid, a somewhat reserved and reserved boy sitting in front of the card table, his hands crossed and trembling slightly.

Su Ge suddenly remembered that just a few minutes before Ramos was killed, something unpleasant happened between Sid and Ramos. Because of Reese's worries, when he chased after him, it happened to be

Came across the scene where Ramos committed violence against Sid.

If we talk about motive, Sid has a sufficient motive to kill.

On the one hand, because both of them like Reese, Sid seems less strong in front of Ramos. No one knows what kind of consequences this mentality will have.

On the other hand, because Sid had just been violently treated by Ramos, he might have been angry in his heart, so he did something he regretted in anger.

Su Ge thought about it and felt that something was wrong.

When Ramos was killed, Sid was changing clothes in a nearby room. If he wanted to kill Ramos, he had to pass by the card table, and in that case he would be seen by everyone.

That's not right, even that devil believer has an invisible hat, maybe Sid... Thinking of this, Su Ge was amused by his own thinking. This kind of stubbornness that seems to be the tip of a bull's horn is completely undesirable in reasoning.

In essence, this is a concept of "I think he is guilty, so even if it is made up, I have to make up a reason to pin it on his head." It is a subjective conjecture without sufficient reasons to support it, so the analysis of the case is

Say, it's completely useless.

Moreover, invisibility only hides the body, not erasing the existence. If you open the door, you will still hear it... Su Ge still tried to convince himself in his heart.

"What's wrong? Have you got an idea? Ahem." Noli saw Su Ge's silly smile and came over to ask.

Su Ge looked at Noli, "I think that since you have been away from York City for so long, you probably don't know much about what happened around Reese, right?"

"It also depends on the specific situation."

"For example, someone likes her."

"Is that you? I can introduce you to each other."

"It's not me," Su Ge refused ruthlessly, "and we already know each other."

????????????

The questioning continued long into the night.

Among the guests who came, there were inevitably some ladies who were very concerned about their health. It was these people who protested against Neo's behavior.

Perhaps considering the importance they attached to sleep, or perhaps fearing their status, Neo didn't think much about it, and after leaving a simple inquiry message, he sent everyone back.

Neo's move made Sugar very angry, but Sugar had nothing to do.

In fact, even he himself didn't quite believe in the divination results of the coin, but he originally thought that he could at least wait until dawn, so that he could at least search to see if there was really a killer hiding in the Foel Mansion.

After dawn, the Foer Mansion returned to its usual calm, as if the experience last night was a dream.

Su Ge sat in the prayer room of the Leinu Church, completely recounted what happened last night to other association members, and then waited quietly for everyone to express their opinions.

"According to your statement, the coin that Angdu gave you gave you a hint?" Selin asked.

Su Ge nodded, "Yes, but I'm not sure if it's true."

"How does the juice mixed with ink taste?" Angdu asked.

"That's not the point, right? Mr. Ondu." Su Ge was speechless, "If the coin's divination result is correct, then didn't we miss an excellent opportunity to find the murderer?"

"What you said is true, but the reality is that we have no power to intervene in this matter." Ondu spread his hands, saying that he was powerless, "Do you know who the murdered Ramos was?"

Su Ge shook his head and said he didn't know.

"The only son of the Treasurer of York City, and his father, has given full authority to the police to handle this matter. Of course, there is also the Church of Order behind it."

"Although York City is not a very prosperous city, it is still one of the five major cities in Griffin. You can imagine how influential the person who controls all the finances of such a city has, and now his child has been killed.

Yes, the consequences can be imagined.”

"So, why don't you let us go investigate? Isn't now the time when we are needed?" Su Ge was a little excited.

"I guess Neo is forced to do so."

"To be able to force Neo to make such a decision, I'm afraid the chief financial officer put considerable pressure on him. They wanted the police station to give a reasonable explanation. This is almost the level of accountability. You can imagine

All of a sudden, someone was murdered at a dinner party attended by a police chief. No matter from any angle, it is unjustifiable."

Angdu continued: "Moreover, the news came this morning that the secret room murder case on Lumanluo Street was also taken over by the police. No, to be precise, it should be that the police withdrew their request for support from us.

"

"So, these two cases are now taken over by the police with full authority, and no other forces are allowed to participate, even with good intentions. I remind you not to act without authorization. Based on my understanding of Neo, his current

The situation is not very good.”

"Now this is not just an ordinary task. What it represents is the symbol of authority and determination of the royal family. In this case, if the bottom line is touched, the church will not come forward to help you."

"How could this happen..." Su Ge murmured.

At the very beginning, he heard from Angdu that the association's positioning was a delicate zone between royal management and direct control of the church.

In several previous actions, he had received support from the church, but he never expected that he would be left alone at this time.

Angdu leaned forward, leaned against the table, looked into Su Ge's eyes, and said seriously:

"Now to summarize, it seems that we are not qualified to intervene in the two secret room murder cases. If we want to do something, we can only use special methods, and we cannot attract the attention of the police, nor can we interfere with the police's actions.

"

"If you can do this, then I will support you in your investigation and can provide help when you need it. Of course, this is all on the premise that you have completed the basic course."

Hearing what Angdu said, Suge breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"Thank you, Mr. Ondu, I thought you would stop me this time."

"When the Mutual Aid Association was first established, it had only one goal, which was to help those in need. I have no reason to stop you."

"It's just that this time it involves an issue of stance, and you have never had any experience in this area, so I have to remind you in this way."

At this point, Angdu's face began to become solemn, "And judging from my previous experience, the results of divination are very convincing."

"In your opinion, how accurate can it be?" Selin asked from the side.

"One hundred percent." Angdu confirmed, "If you can be sure, it is an unfortunate event with a small probability."

????????????

Su Ge finished his training with Archbishop Oghayma and returned from the land of Verud. After a brief rest, he devoted himself to the analysis of two secret room murder cases.

Perhaps because of his personal experience, or perhaps because Reese and Kallen were his friends, Su Ge took this incident very seriously, but he also knew that Angdu's warning was not a joke.

If you fail to grasp the scale of your actions, it is likely to cause conflicts between the police and the association. At that time, I am afraid that as Angdu said, you will not be able to get any help from the church.

"Well, after all, the entire country belongs to the royal family. If you interfere in the investigation of the police department without authorization, it will be tantamount to openly defying the authority of the royal family."

Su Ge scratched his head and planned to focus on his recovery and extraordinary ability training. After all, the improvement of abilities directly affects his own strength and is also related to his own safety.

"It can't be investigated directly, but it didn't say it can't be investigated indirectly. I can also provide clues..."

Su Ge packed up his things, walked out of Leinu Church, looked at the stars in the sky, and stretched hard.

"Perhaps you can go to the library tomorrow and ask Karen. She may know some information about Ramos. Well, you can borrow two more books by the way. I just don't know if she was frightened by what happened yesterday."

Thinking of this, Su Ge raised his head, looked at the bright night, and felt the echo brought by those shining stars.

Suddenly, somewhere in the night, an invisible star issued a mysterious and ancient call to him.

Almost at the same time, a burning pain like fire came from the palm of Su Ge's left hand.

The familiar pain reminded him of something in an instant. Su Ge looked around, quickly ran to the inside of the bell tower, climbed all the way up, and after confirming that no one could see him, he turned his gaze to the star in the night.

Invisible stars.

"Hidden Star..."
