Mystery: From Meeting Amon

Chapter 51 Criminals
Lewis could vaguely see the facial features of the figure, the other's expression was dull and his eyes were empty.

"Why did you kill me?" Lewis asked, he must hurry up, because the psychic effect will weaken as the death time increases.

The transparent, illusory figure made a voice and said, "Because you took away the opportunity that belonged to Barry, Miss Tifana is his favorite lady. Barry pays me one hundred pounds to deal with you. Besides, I also want Gather some offerings."

Lewis immediately remembered the billiard player he met at the Eros Center. Just because of a chance to meet a woman, the other party actually asked someone to assassinate him.

Lewis was vaguely angry, and Mr. Barry was not too forgiving. If he had the chance to see him again, he must find a way to avoid future troubles.

"Are you a transcendent? What kind of transcendent?" Lewis heard the key point from Necromancer's answer, and hurriedly asked.

"I am a 'criminal'." The transparent, illusory figure spoke, and it seemed to feel pain every time it said a word.

"The criminal should be Sequence Nine of the Abyss Pathway. I hardly know the potion formula of this path, but I can do a divination."

Lewis smiled, the 'criminal' potion formula was a surprise.

He touched the illusory figure with his right hand, and then silently recited the divination sentence "Criminal's Potion Formula".

Lewis fell asleep standing up. In his sleep, he saw a hand carefully opening a piece of parchment. On the parchment was written the criminal's potion formula: extraordinary materials include one horn of a devil fish, five ghost dust Auxiliary materials include 5 grams of holy night powder, gastric juice of black goat and one part of croissant of black goat.

After waking up, Lewis recited the formula in his mind several times in succession, which he remembered.

"You said before to collect sacrifices, what do those sacrifices do?" Lewis straightened his hat, and the other party's answer reminded him of evil rituals.

"Sacrifice... want..." Just as he opened his mouth, a painful expression suddenly appeared on the face of the undead, and it became more illusory and even began to crack.

Lewis, who realized that the situation was not good, hastily withdrew from the psychic ritual, so there were no serious consequences.

As the spiritual wall was lifted, a brisk wind blew, and Lewis' eyes returned to normal again, with the whites and pupils becoming distinct.

Discovering that a powerful force interfered with the psychic communication, Lewis did not dare to continue. He looked down at the corpse, and a stone similar to black agate had already been separated from the chest of the corpse, which was the extraordinary characteristic of the "criminal".

After the other party's Extraordinary characteristics were completely separated from the body, Lewis used a cigarette case to collect the stone-like item the size of half a fist.

Although he doesn't need the Extraordinary characteristics of "criminal", this Extraordinary characteristic can be configured into potions and can also be used to make magical items.

It can be said that the price of this small piece can reach more than three hundred pounds, if it meets the right buyer.

"The spirituality has dissipated. I can't judge the true identity of this extraordinary person, but I can probably guess that he should be related to the 'Blood Worship Cult'."

Lewis pondered, the so-called 'Blood Cult' is actually a relatively loose supernatural organization, the organization controls the "Abyss" pathway, and the abyss pathway is also a demon pathway.

Based on this, Lewis started divination in order to confirm the next move.

"I should destroy the corpse."

Lewis recited the divination statement silently, and the pendant turned smoothly clockwise, which meant that he should indeed destroy the corpse.

"Whether it's handing over the body to the police, or absconding, it's not an option.

If the body is handed over to the police, it will likely attract the investigation of the extraordinary. Once the police leak the news, it may attract the demons of the "Blood Worship Cult". Who knows if they will take revenge.

If I abscond and leave, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of the people around me. At that time, I may be wanted, and I may even be forced to leave Backlund. Then I will have no chance to get the Sealed Artifact 0-08. "

After figuring this out, Lewis waited until late at night before going out. He used dream divination to briefly confirm the location suitable for dumping the corpse, and then went.

Boom!
Accompanied by some indistinct sounds, the corpse sank into the sewer.

In Backlund, an unknown number of corpses of unknown origin sink into the sewer every day, and most of these corpses will not be discovered by the police. They just rot in the sewer or are eaten by creatures until all the truth is revealed. was buried.

"I hope this 'criminal' does not have an accomplice who planned the case together, otherwise I will have a headache." Lewis sighed, and now the only hidden danger is the Mr. Barry who bought the crime.

Thinking of this, Lewis still decided to wait until the party, at that time, he could hire a Transcendent to deal with the villain, completely ignoring himself from the incident.

Back at the detective agency, Lewis borrowed the characteristics of the "machine" to calm himself down. After all, it was the first time he had committed murder and dumped corpses, so he was somewhat uncomfortable psychologically.

After lighting the gas lamp, Lewis carefully searched for various traces in the detective agency. He did not return to the attic to rest until he confirmed that the traces of the fight had been dealt with.

By this time, the sky had begun to turn white.

As soon as he lay down, Lewis was struck by inspiration. After he opened his vision, he saw a huge bone messenger coming out from under the floor. The bone messenger looked at him with empty eyes burning with flames, and then threw a letter on his face.

"I have to complain to Mr. Azik!" Seeing the Bone Messenger disappear as phantom bones, Lewis felt a surge of anger and blood.

No matter how sensible he is, it would be unbearable to be humiliated by the messenger again and again.

Opening the letter, Lewis confirmed the contents.

"Miss Serra has already obtained the contract made by the notary, and she asked me to fulfill my promise and help her complete the promotion ceremony." After confirming the content, Lewis burned the letter.

He took out a pen and paper, made an appointment with Miss Sierra on the time and place on the letter paper, and asked about the messenger by the way, and then blew the Azik copper whistle.

Almost at the same time as the copper whistle blew, a huge bone courier emerged from under the floor. The courier stretched out its bone claws, waiting for Lewis to deliver the letter.

"I really hope that you are the one who delivers letters every time." Seeing this polite courier, Lewis suddenly felt better. He delivered the letter to the bone courier and watched the courier disappear.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Lewis opened the door of the detective agency as usual. He made a cup of black tea and read today's news.

After the incident last night, he had to hide his "abnormality".
