Mystery: Outlander Gods of Bloodborne

Chapter 28 New Neighbors

The next day, early in the morning.

There was a sound of chopping vegetables at No. 24 Backlund Hydrology Road.

Bright sunlight shines through the windows, illuminating the kitchen in this small building.Under the three or four miserable bowls in the cupboard, Jager was preparing breakfast.

Heh, what does one person need so many bowls for?

The 'budget-conscious' Yager sliced ​​tomatoes, put them on two pieces of white bread with lettuce, put luncheon meat, and added a lethal amount of peanut butter to complete today's breakfast.

He carried the plate to the dining room table in the living room.

In the main hall of the small Western-style building, which can be called magnificent, the black-haired young man opened the exquisitely carved seat and sat down. He took out the newly arrived Backlund Morning Post, and took a sip of milk.

To his surprise, the front page of the morning newspaper today was neither Viscount Clint nor the corpse at the entrance of the Holy Wind Church last night.

'The Intis ambassador in Backlund was assassinated after the banquet! '
Oh?
Yager immediately thought of Detective Sherlock Moriarty and MI[-] yesterday.Logically speaking, only these two waves of people are likely to assassinate the ambassador.

From the perspective of strength, he tends to be MI[-]. After all, Sherlock's level is really hard to describe.

But on the other hand, MI[-] had no motive to act.Because as long as the Loen Kingdom has no plans to go to war with Intis, the ambassador cannot be killed in Backlund.

An ambassador is a symbol of peaceful diplomatic relations.

So it's still Sherlock...?
Yager continued to read the full report.

He hits the point at the end of the first page: 'It is reported that the well-known cult organization Aurora has claimed responsibility for this matter.The Backlund Morning Post reminds you that this illegal sect has taken extreme actions and has caused many murders. Citizens, please be sure not to contact or ask questions...'
Omit the meaningless word-number comparison of the following words, the focus of this sentence is the Aurora Society.

It's a bit strange, Aurora will have nothing to do to trouble Ambassador Intis.

However, Yager doesn't know much about the Aurora Society. Apart from knowing that it is a well-known terrorist group in the Kingdom of Loen, he has almost no idea.

So he didn't know that the deafening roar last night was the hand of the evil god believed by the Aurora Order.

Otherwise, some scumbags should hit the door angrily.

Yager folded up the newspaper, and was about to ask Detective Moriarty on the way to work, and commissioned part of the investigation by the way.

There are a total of four unresolved items that he pushed forward yesterday.

First of all, the cases of Viscount Clint and Lenzer are basically clear, and the next step is to go to Capin's mansion.You can entrust Sherlock to investigate the intelligence, but it doesn't matter if there is no result, just go there.

Then there is the matter of Bill Rudolph. There is no progress yet, only that Bill's mother and Liv's youngest daughter next door are involved in the disappearance case in the East End.There is no extraordinary factor in it, and he can't find an entry point, so he should also entrust it to the detective.

Finally, there is the night visit to the church and the evil spirits in the suburban manor.Both of these must first prepare weapons and carefully "explore".

All in all, most of the above investigations can be entrusted to Detective Moriarty, which can be offset by the debt between them and save his investigation effort.

He only needs to be responsible for the force part.

After going through the to-do list for this week in his mind, Yager settled the sandwiches in twos and put on a black windbreaker to go out.

There are plenty of people in the morning in the Jowood area, and from time to time there are abnormally gorgeous carriages speeding through the streets, which are bought by some wealthy neighbors themselves.

Yager's small western-style building is located in the upper middle of the Jowood District, close to the Minsk office and the upper city. Therefore, except for him who rents a house, the neighbors living on the left and right are relatively wealthy.

The house on his left belongs to a family of employees of the Loen Kingdom's Tax Office. A middle-aged couple with two children, often see the difficult scene of them sending their children to school.

The one on the right is an old lady. It is said that her relatives are all in Intis, but she prefers to live in her hometown of Backlund, so she never left.

Usually, she likes to grow roses in her room. The crimson villa's outer wall is already covered with vines, and the small garden at the door is even more of a sea of ​​flowers.

However, a strange young man appeared at the door of this house today.

The young man has slightly curly hair and a thin body. He wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his face. He looks well-dressed, but he touches his left eye socket wearing glasses uncomfortably from time to time.

After seeing Yagel who appeared next door, the young man turned around and looked at him with his head tilted for a moment.

Then he said with a smile: "Hello, my name is Green."

"Hello." Yager nodded, "Yager Durest. May I ask who you are?"

"I am the son of Mrs. Mary's cousin, and I used to live in Intis. Recently, Mrs. Mary passed away, and I came to Backlund to hold her funeral."

"The rest of the family can't spare time to come over, so I can only clean the old house." Green leaned next to Jagel, reached out and shook his hand, showing a depressed expression at the right time.

"Condolences."

For some reason, Yager could vaguely feel that the young man in front of him was not sad.

But he didn't take it to heart.Who doesn't have a few distant relatives who don't know at all?It's normal to have no turmoil in your heart.

"I work in the admissions department of Central University." The depression on Green's face was fleeting, and soon he squinted and smiled again. "What about you?"

Admissions?

Yager accidentally glanced at Green's face again.Although the other party looks young, but his actions are extremely sophisticated, and all emotions are superficial.

When he looked over, the smile on Green's face deepened, which made Yager feel a subtle discomfort.

Such an admissions officer... He mourned for the students who applied to Central University.

"At the Minsk office ahead," he replied.

"That's right. The work in the firm must be very interesting." Green nodded, "Now is just the time to go to work, so I won't bother you."

He offered his farewell very socially.

"I should live here for a while, nice to meet you."

Green walked up to the porch surrounded by Mrs. Mary's roses, and took off his hat to Jagel.

Yagel nodded, and took off the top hat on his head: "Nice to meet you, goodbye."

"Goodbye."

Yagel watched Green waving to him, and seemed to disappear behind the door of No. 25 Shuiwen Road with great interest.

After the arrival of this young man, the originally beautiful exterior wall seemed to have dimmed a bit.

This should be his new neighbor.

Yager withdrew his gaze to the next door.

Although his enthusiasm is a bit weird, he is generally a polite young man.This is Green's first impression of Yager.

Green's biggest problem is that he has the temperament of an outlaw fanatic, but this doesn't matter. Anyway, in terms of intuition, Yager feels that he can hold Green's hammer.

There is little danger from new neighbors.

He didn't pay too much attention to this little episode, and after a little judgment, he turned and left, and set foot on the road to Klein's house again.
