Mystery: I can change things in books

Chapter 255 Follow-up ([-])

The first day after Zillinges' death, Thursday, September 9
While waiting for the public carriage, Klein bought a copy of the "Tingen Morning News" in advance. The headline of the newspaper was "The great pirate Qilingos was shot to death by the Duke's bodyguard in Backlund" in two lines, making him "hermit" last night. After the report, the death of "Hurricane Lieutenant General" was again confirmed.

He did not think that the "Hermit" killed Qilingos. Last night, the "Hermit" clearly told him that the killer was "unknown".

Now it is certain that Mr. Azik killed Qilingos, but we don’t know how badly he was injured. After all, Qilingos’s sequence is not low, and he also has a very powerful magical item...

But thinking about it this way, the "hermit" is also very strong. At least, he witnessed the battle scene and saw the death of Qilingos...

How is his strength?

With this question in mind, Klein put away the newspaper and stepped onto the carriage.

……

Backlund, Queens
On the well-maintained lawn, there is a pure white round table. In addition to tableware, there is also a copy of "Backlund Morning News" on the table.

Audrey Hall sat at the table, sipping sweet iced tea from a patterned porcelain cup.

After one night, she was still very excited.

The death of "Hurricane Lieutenant General" Qilingos was news that shocked the entire northern and southern continents, but no one knew that he was involved in his death.

The first official action of the Tarot Club was a perfect success!
Audrey put the porcelain cup gently on the table and glanced inadvertently next to her. Susie, the big golden retriever dog, was squatting at her feet, tilting her head and looking at her doubtfully.

Audrey crossed her hips angrily and amusedly, and asked:
"What did you hear just now?"

Susie wagged her tail: "Qilingus, who is it?"

……

Backlund, Joe Wood District

Hugh and Fors emerge from the Bavart Bank still reeling from the death of Zillinges.

"Do you think Qilingos's death has anything to do with Audrey's friend? He probably hasn't left Backlund yet," Forsi said casually.

After Audrey asked herself and Hugh to help her friend attend Mr. A's party, Zillinges died within two days.

Is this just a pure coincidence?

"I don't think he could kill Qilingos," Xio shook his head and continued, "but if he caused Qilingos' death, I think Mr. A was also involved."

"Yes..." Forsi nodded, thoughtfully.

Xio then gave a guess: "Did Mr. A team up with him to kill Qilingos?"

Hearing this, Forsi fell into a brief silence. If the truth was true as Xio said, then the two of them would be in a very dangerous situation now.

Hugh had been secretly investigating matters related to Chillinges, and as a famous "arbiter" in the East District, even if no one knew her goals or what she was doing, someone must be paying attention to her.

In this way, even if Forsi did not follow Xio when she was acting alone, it would be easier for anyone who wanted to find out.

Most likely, he is a die-hard follower of "Hurricane Admiral".

But how many?Forsi didn't know the answer to this question.

She immediately pulled Xio into a coffee shop on the corner and sat in the innermost seat.

"Whether Mr. A has anything to do with Zillinges' death, I don't know. What I want to know now is, are we safe now?"

"So you've been worried about this."

Xio laughed dumbly, drank the coffee in the cup in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and said, "Even if we are targeted, the person targeting us can only be an official Beyonder."

"How can you see it?" Forsi asked.

"You think, Qilingos is dead, and his fans are like what Emperor Russell said in the saying, 'A group of dragons without a leader is no different from insects.'

Even if he had die-hard loyalties, he should have died last night. His power at sea should be being divided up by other pirate generals and pirate kings at this moment. "

Fors thought deeply, nodded and said with a smile: "Sure enough, in this respect, I still don't think as much as you do, and I'm not as comprehensive as you."

Xio took the cheap dessert brought by the waiter, spread some margarine on the small cake, and said:

"After Qilingos's death, we will not be threatened by him. Pirates are guys who seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. They will only act for their own interests.

As for Mr. A and Audrey's friends, we don't need to worry too much. After all, we have helped him. According to my intuition, he is not an ungrateful person.

Then the only possibility left to target us is the 'official Beyonder', the Nighthawk, the Punisher, or the Mechanical Heart. "

Xio looked up at Forsi, who understood and chuckled:
"After dessert, we'll go to Queens."

……

Tingen suburb
After breakfast, Chris put on his suit and hat, and left the residence.

Wearing a well-fitting black suit and a white shirt underneath, paired with dark trousers and leather shoes, he looked exactly like a university professor except for his youthful face and his "professor" appearance.

A sufficient number of scrolls were stacked in his left and right pockets. In order to better digest the "Scroll Professor" potion, Chris had left all the magic powder on the Star Island and now only carried the scrolls.

He hailed a cab and headed for Zoetland Street.

About 10 minutes later, the carriage stopped steadily at the intersection of Zotland Street.

Chris jumped out of the carriage, put his hands in his pockets, and walked towards No. 36 nonchalantly.

It was not too early now, the Nighthawks had already entered the security company, and Chris was not discovered by anyone else.

But he did not go up, but wandered downstairs for more than ten minutes. During this period, his inspiration did not twitch, and he did not have any premonition of danger.

After getting such a result, Chris quickly performed a simplified dream divination downstairs of the Blackthorn Security Company. The results showed that there was no danger coming here in the future.

After getting the confirmed result, Chris breathed a sigh of relief, left here, and walked towards the Divination Club.

Although I don't know Megoose's home address, I do know that she is Cristina's niece, who is registered with the Divination Club.

So, as long as I can find Christina, I can find Megoose...

Chris wanted to personally determine Megoose's current condition, but he didn't think that this was a trap or "seeking death."

This is because he knows that in the writing of "0-08", Megaos came to the Blackthorn Security Company after "receiving an inexplicable summons".

The heir of the "true Creator" in her belly was "at a critical stage and could not stop her impulse."

Therefore, the son of the evil god wanted to be truly born, but the "inexplicable summons" interfered with his plan.

Thinking of this, Chris thought that he was safe - according to the divination results, Megoose had not yet received the "inexplicable summons".

What's more, with the help of Star Island, the descendant of the evil god in Megoose's belly couldn't even realize that he was an extraordinary person.
