Arriving at the designated address, Roman held the "Travel Stick" in his left hand and knocked on the door in the agreed manner with his right hand.
The door of the wooden house opened with a creak, revealing Kaspers' familiar scarred face and familiar big nose inside.
"Roman, you're here."
As he spoke, he turned sideways, allowing Roman to see the scene inside the room.
There were many "people" inside, either standing around or playing cards together. After Roman opened the door, they all turned their heads and stared at Roman at the door.
In the middle is a pale young man, who is the "living corpse" Maric that Roman has seen.
After looking around for a week, Roman closed the door, walked straight to Maric, pulled up a chair opposite him and sat down, looked into his malicious eyes, and asked:
"What do you want from me?"
The living corpses around him slowly started doing their own thing, and Roman saw a figure flashing out from behind Maric, wearing a complex black palace dress and a small soft hat of the same color. It was the figure with light blond hair and blue eyes.
Miss Sharon.
This is probably to show their sincerity, right? Roman thought with some uncertainty... Only Klein can interpret Miss Sharon's behavior and actions very well...
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Maric on the opposite side say in a slightly hoarse and low voice:
"Jason, the 'Living Corpse', appeared in Backlund, and we want to ask you to cooperate."
"Living Corpse" Jason... Roman was chewing on this name secretly in his heart, and then heard Maric say in a slightly lower tone:
"You have a grudge against him, and we heard about your deeds from Kaspars and learned about your credibility and character. This is the basis for us to seek cooperation."
"How to cooperate? What is the specific situation?" Roman found that his voice was not calm.
Roman knew that Detective Sherlock had cooperated several times with Miss Sharon in Backlund against the Rose School of Orgies, but the specific details had been somewhat forgotten.
After Malic glanced at Miss Sharon beside him, he said:
"Be our assistant and surround and kill a Sequence 5 Beyonder."
"Your mission is to hold back Jason the Living Corpse and buy us time."
"I also have an expected helper, and there is something very special about him."
"The Sequence 5 Extraordinary has a sealed artifact in his hand that is very capable of restraining us. On the contrary, with the blessing of this sealed artifact, their strength will be strengthened."
"The person responsible for this matter is a high-sequence expert, but he was led to another place by the clues we deliberately left behind."
"We have other strongholds in Backlund. If we can kill the Sequence 5 strongman in charge of this area and take away the sealed artifact in his hand, we will immediately pretend to leave Backlund, and we will no longer be afraid.
It’s a normal pursuit.”
"That Sequence 5 and Sharon are both 'revengeful souls', and I am the 'Living Corpse' of Sequence 6." Maric added.
In order to show his sincerity, Maric introduced their situation in relatively detail.
Roman looked like he was thinking and said:
"Is the expected helper you mentioned reliable?"
"Reliable." Miss Sharon next to her said in her unique tone.
Roman nodded, "I have no problem anymore, and I would like to thank you for giving me a chance to take revenge with my own hands."
Mariic shook his head, "Since we are cooperating, we must clearly explain the situation of the spoils in advance to avoid any unpleasantness."
"If it succeeds, everything about the 'living corpse' Jason will belong to you, including his extraordinary characteristics and the magical items he may carry."
Roman was very satisfied with Maric's predetermined behavior, but he shook his head:
"Out of hatred, I have done some research on the Rose School. The extraordinary properties of those members of the Indulgence School often have some evil negative effects when made into magical items. I don't need the properties of a 'living corpse'.
Plus, I’m already a ‘Rider of the Dawn’.”
Roman did not explain what the order of "Dawn Knight" was. He believed that they should all be aware of it. Telling his order was also an expression of his sincerity.
"Then what reward do you want?"
"I want Miss Sharon to do me a favor." Roman looked at Miss Sharon next to Maric.
Some illusory voice sounded:
"What's the rush?"
"Because I am investigating the disappearance of a girl in the East District, I am about to deal with a senior executive of the Backlund Police Department. There is a high probability that he is a Sequence 6 'Judge', and a small probability is that he is a Sequence 5 'Punishment Knight'."
Roman said, paused briefly, and saw that Miss Sharon had no reaction to her wanting to deal with an official, and then said:
"It's not difficult for me to kill him myself, but considering his identity, I can't make too much noise. This requires your help." Roman said seriously as he looked at Miss Sharon's exquisite expressionless face.
:
"I will try my best to gather good information before inviting you to take action. If you are in danger, you can evacuate on your own. It does not count as a breach of contract. If his strength is much higher than expected, I will give you an additional compensation after success."
Miss Sharon's eyes moved, and her face as delicate as a doll seemed to come to life:
"Yes, you need to sign a contract and seek the consent of the helper."
Huh? Roman can understand the signing of the contract, why does Crane need to agree?
Roman thought for a while and then roughly understood that Miss Sharon meant that it was a matter of cooperation between several parties, and that Detective Sherlock needed to agree. It did not mean that he needed to agree to the subsequent transaction content.
"So now we are going to find that helper?" Roman asked a little tiredly.
"We." Miss Sharon said concisely.
?
Roman looked at Maric next to him.
"Sharon means that we go find the helper. You wait here in case there is an attack here, and help us protect Caspars by the way."
Roman's mouth twitched slightly... Good guy, how did you read so much content from these two words?
But on the surface Roman nodded and approved the decision.
After all, my sudden appearance in front of the great detective would scare him half to death, so it would be better to let Miss Sharon go over and let him decide whether to see me or not, and let him make his own divination before making the decision.
However, the main reason why Miss Sharon wanted Crane's help was because of the "Total Black Eye", which could use its ability to see the thread of the spirit body to help her find the location of the enemy's "revengeful soul".
The "puppet head" in his hand can actually achieve similar effects. If not for the purpose of not destroying the cooperation between Klein and Miss Sharon, Roman would have directly suggested that he had a similar item in his hand.
It depends on the situation. If the result of Klein's divination is that he will not participate in this operation, then Roman will bring out the "puppet head".
Roman thought, watching Miss Sharon disappear into the air, and Maric took his living corpse and boarded a brown carriage. This chapter has been completed!
