Chapter 154 Showdown
"..."

After a moment of silence, Ye Ming asked seriously: "Are you sure she's only here to watch the ceremony?"

Leaving aside whether the so-called coronation ceremony could be held smoothly, he couldn't believe that Aretha came here just to watch the coronation ceremony.

Unless there's something wrong with Alessa's head.

"You'll know this when the time comes, I won't say much!" Isa laughed.

"Hehe, is Mr. Lance okay?"

Ye Ming asked.

Although Yisha didn't answer directly, her words already admitted that Alessa came to Aurora not simply to watch the ceremony.

Just don't know what the purpose is.

"He! It's fine now!" Isa said.

"That's good."

After the two chatted a few more words, Ye Ming ended the communication.

The next day, Ye Ming received the captain's assembly message early in the morning.

There is no surprise, Xia Lun said yesterday that they will have to work overtime in the next few days.

"Need to gather in the activity room?"

Ye Ming asked.

"Oh, I almost forgot, you don't need to gather there, just come outside the city and I'll send you the location." Xia Lun added after oh.

"..."

Ye Ming couldn't help but be thankful that he asked one more question, otherwise he would have made a waste of a trip, and the reason why he asked this question was because he heard the captain's voice was very noisy, obviously not in the activity room of the law enforcement building.

"I'll be right there."

Ye Ming hung up the communication, and the location sent by the captain was also displayed on the terminal.

After seeing the address, Ye Ming couldn't help being stunned.

He is no stranger to this address, isn't this the place he followed No. [-] yesterday?

Has it been exposed?
However, no matter what, he should not be found. After all, not only has part of the memory of No. [-] been deleted by him, but he is also dead.

Last night, that black shadow was done very cleanly, not even the soul residue of No. [-] was left, and even a Necromancer Arcanist from God's Domain was helpless.

Ye Ming felt that it was time for him to buy a car of his own.

Otherwise, it is usually troublesome enough.

After taking a taxi to the scene, Ye Ming really remembered correctly, this is exactly the place he visited last night.

Of course, the place is still the same place, but the scene is completely different.

The most obvious of these was the disappearance of the house last night, replaced by a huge pit.

Deep at the bottom of the pit lay the remains of the house.

Well, it feels like being pressed down by someone's hand, the building is completely broken, and then sinks into a deep pit.

"How is this going?"

Ye Ming took a deep breath. For him, he may be more shocked than others when he saw this scene.

After all, the others just heard that there used to be a building here, and now it has sunk into the ground, but he has seen it with his own eyes.

And the two pictures were only separated by one night.

It is natural to compare the two pictures before and after in my mind uncontrollably.

Xia Lun and others are already here, besides, a group of imperial police officers blocked the scene.

Ye Ming was invited in after revealing his identity.

So a question was raised.

Xia Lun turned his head to look over, shrugged and said, "From what I can see now, this building was slapped into the soil with a slap, and we are currently searching for any casualties."

Ye Ming followed Xia Lun's gaze, and saw many people in the deep pit searching the scene.

Then he was also very curious. The two of them were not ordinary people, so they shouldn't have died inside.

But looking at the huge pit, Ye Ming couldn't believe his own judgment.

"I knew it wouldn't be peaceful these few days, but I didn't expect such a big commotion to happen." Xia Lun sighed.

"Captain Sharon, our people found a corpse below!"

A police officer came over at this moment and said.

"Let's go and see."

Xia Lun greeted several people and walked into the deep pit.

The entire deep pit is filled with a bright atmosphere, and it is obvious that the person who made the shot is a high-level light arcanist.

And he didn't even try to cover it up, as if he wanted to tell everyone.

But these don't affect anything.

The police officers below dug out a corpse from the ruins. The corpse was so dilapidated that it was no longer possible to identify it by appearance.

Just based on his clothes, Ye Ming can be sure that this corpse is exactly the middle-aged man he saw last night.

But where did the other one go?
Compared with the middle-aged man, Ye Ming was more impressed by the black figure who killed No. [-].

It is obviously unreasonable to find only one body.

"Are there other things around the body?"

Ye Ming couldn't help asking.

Ye Ming's heart skipped a beat as the man didn't have that ledger.

If the person who made the shot was Luvia's, would his actions last night also be under Luvia's surveillance?

These questions sent chills down Ye Ming's back.

"Nothing else."

A police officer replied.

"What do you know?" Xia Lun looked over meaningfully, with a smile on his face.

"I don't know, it's just a guess."

Ye Ming shook his head and said.

Although he could trust Xia Lun, he was not sure about the others.

Xia Lun didn't ask any more questions after hearing the words, but said to the police officer beside him, "Check the identity of the corpse as soon as possible, the sooner the better."

"Yes!"

After that, the few people turned around in the deep pit again, but they didn't find any clues.

They have no clue either about the shooter or the dead.

The person who made the attack was very decisive and simple, just one blow turned this place into this, and he was also very confident.

Confidence that no one can survive such an attack.

That blow crushed the soul of the deceased, not even giving him a chance to summon the soul.

"Captain, our investigation mission was arranged by the eldest princess, right?"

Ye Ming asked suddenly.

Hearing this, Ji Ge asked strangely: "How do you know?"

Ye Ming smiled: "Guess, after all, the captain and the eldest princess have a good relationship."

"It is indeed the commission of the eldest princess." Xia Lun nodded, and said: "Of course, in a few days, I will not be able to be called the eldest princess."

These words made several people laugh.

The police officers next to them didn't dare to speak out when they heard these words. These topics were not something they could comment on at will, so they all pretended not to hear them.

Soon, the identification results of the corpse came out.

The man was a member of the Philos family.

Because the information of everyone in the empire is bound to their own genes, it is very simple to adjust the genes and determine a person's identity.

The Philos family is also a noble of Aurora.

Its status is only one level lower than the families of Grand Duke Lavelle and Grand Duke Snow.

After hearing the news, Xia Lun just smiled, and there was no surprise on his face: "It turns out that they are members of the Philos family. It seems that we have to ask them to claim the body."

So, not long after, the Ferros family's estate was heavily surrounded.

The members of the Ferros family were all stunned, looking at the surrounded manor inside and out, they had no idea what happened.

When Ye Ming and others walked into the Ferros Manor, all the members of the Philos family gathered in the yard.

One of the majestic old men saw the crowd coming in and asked coldly:

"Do you mean to represent the Senate?"

Because the Ministry of Law Enforcement was under the jurisdiction of the Senate, he directly moved the Senate out.

It's a pity that the Ghost Squad doesn't accept this kind of behavior of slapping a big hat as soon as it comes up.

"Mr. Philos, this is just what I mean." Sharon smiled at the old man and waved to the people outside.

Immediately two people walked in carrying a stretcher.

The two carried the stretcher in and lifted the white cloth covering it, revealing the broken corpse underneath.

This scene caused many members of the Philos family to cover their eyes, and some people with lower tolerance directly vomited.

Several women screamed.

The old man frowned and asked, "What does this mean?"

Sharon explained:
"This is the deceased from the incident outside the city last night. According to the results of our genetic comparison, he is a member of your Philos family. We just came to you to confirm."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expression changed, and they subconsciously looked at the corpse.

At first they thought it was just a corpse, but after hearing that the corpse belonged to their family, everyone's attitude changed.

"A member of our family?"

"Could it be the second uncle? He has disappeared for a while."

"Impossible, the second uncle is very strong, it is impossible to die like this!"

Everyone, you are discussing with each other.

The old man's face was not very good-looking, but he didn't stop it. After a moment of silence, he said:
"Since you already know that he is a member of our Philos family, tell us his identity!"

Although I feel that this situation is obviously not as simple as claiming the corpse.

But the problem is that they have no meaning to deny this situation.

To put it bluntly, the other party's visit was just a formality.

"Sera Ferros, you should be familiar with this name, right?"

Xia Lun heard this and pointed at the corpse.

"It's really the second uncle?!"

"Second uncle, why is he in Aurora? Didn't he leave long ago?"

"..."

The Phiros family became excited,
"Quiet!"

At this time, the old man of Philos' family turned around and scolded everyone, the scene quieted down, and then looked at Xia Lun again:
"I don't know what your purpose is, but what I can tell you is that no matter what mistakes Sera made, he has nothing to do with our Philos family. He was expelled from Philos a few years ago family."

The old man glanced at the corpse, his tone indifferent.

"So you don't know who he has been with recently?" Xia Lun was not surprised by this answer.

In fact, they had investigated the information before they came here, and the old man Philos did not lie.

It's just that they don't know why Serra was expelled from the family.

Hearing the words, the old man seemed to understand the intentions of Xia Lun and others, and said coldly: "Of course we don't know, it's just that he was with those people from the Revival Society, and I expelled him from the family after repeated admonitions."

"In that case, don't bother."

Xia Lun smiled when he heard the words, and after getting the answer he wanted, he left here with people.

After leaving the Philos family, Jiu Ge asked in confusion:
"Cesar, what kind of organization is the Revival?"

Ye Ming froze for a moment, thought for a while, and replied:
"The so-called Revival Society is a reactionary organization established by a group of people who tried to restore the Missouri Empire. They usually act in secret, and in recent years, they have rarely heard of their legends. It is not surprising that they have come out at this juncture. .”

The reason why Ye Ming knew about this organization was because he learned about it when he was learning Missouri.

It's just that, as he said, this organization has rarely acted openly in the past few years.

It's normal that you haven't heard of the song.

"Sizell is right, but the investigation of this matter has nothing to do with us, and then let others arrest the revivalists!" Xia Lun said on the side.

They were only responsible for the investigation, and now they have completed the task.

As for whether the person can be caught, that is other people's business.

Afterwards, they returned to the law enforcement building, and Sharon reported the results of the investigation.

Soon the Senate and the Royal Council sent their own men to hunt down the members of the Revival Society.

When everyone else left, only Ye Ming and Xia Lun were left in the activity room.

Ye Ming hesitated for a moment, then asked:

"Captain, did you kill the man?"

Xia Lun was writing something with his head down, and asked without raising his head, "How did you find out?"

Although he was asking rhetorically, Ye Ming did not hear surprise from his voice.

Instead, he simply wondered how Ye Ming guessed it.

Seeing this, Ye Ming knew he had guessed right, and he said:

"Those bright breaths are mixed with a trace of undead breath."

It was just a trace of undead breath, and he might not have been able to detect it before, but now he is very sensitive to the breath of various arcane energies.

When this happens, only people with the power of light and undead can do it, and only Xia Lun meets these conditions.

And Xia Lun has an unusual relationship with Luvia.

The combination is not so surprising.

"So that's it. Has your perception of arcane energy reached this level?" Xia Lun was obviously a little surprised.

Because even he himself can't clearly perceive this, but he is also aware of the situation Ye Ming said.

But usually it is impossible for anyone to perceive it, so he doesn't care too much.

I just didn't expect Ye Ming to be such a freak.

After finishing speaking, he generously admitted:

"Yes, I did it."

"why?"

Ye Ming was puzzled.

Xia Lun raised her head when she heard this, and said seriously: "She must become the new queen. There can be no mistakes in this. As for the reason, you will know later."

Saying that, Xia Lun said strangely again:

"It's you, what are you doing in the princess's study in the middle of the night?"

"..."

Ye Ming was taken aback, Xia Lun was indeed there at that time!

Of course, this is not surprising, if it wasn't for Sharon, then Sera should not be the only one who died last night.

He may be affected by some.

"I'm going to find something."

Ye Ming thought for a while and said.

Xia Lun directly exposed him: "The experimental data of the Rebellion Project? What do you want that thing for?"

"Because I was one of the original experimental subjects."

After thinking about it, Ye Ming still revealed the secret.

"..."

The expression on Xia Lun's face gradually froze, looking at Ye Ming, he was in a daze for a while.
