The famous detective in the comic world

Chapter 64 St. Patrick's Cathedral
At this time, the chess master happens to be at home.

He would spend the summer there before leaving New York to run his criminal business in an undisclosed underground empire.

That might even be overseas.It is extremely difficult to investigate.

3: The black magic chess set of the chess master seems to be made of the children he bought from the White Swan Orphanage.One of the victims was Michelle, who had previously been briefly sheltered by St Patrick's Cathedral.

Along with these materials, there are several photos.

One is a photo of Michel, three are photos of the chess master's villa, and one is a photo of chess with one each of Reversi and one of each type of chess piece.

Obviously this is the black magic chess set.

"Is St. Patrick's Cathedral...on Fifth Avenue." He Nan took a deep breath, turned his head and asked Shirley: "Okay...it's impossible to go to his villa to investigate now, we should make a plan for the next step There are two options, go to the church and ask, or go to the White Swan Orphanage first."

"...Let's go to church first." Shirley restarted the engine, looked at the chess in the photo, with a complicated expression: "This chess master is cruel enough...to take children..."

"...After all, black magic is cruel and normal." He Nan thought of Doctor Strange, and muttered, "I don't know if the Supreme Sorcerer will take action... but probably not. It's not a black magic event that has too much influence, he will Never mind."

"So... why does this Supreme Mage feel like he has never done anything?" Shirley complained, "What is a big deal? Is the world destroyed?"

Originally, ordinary people had no chance to know the existence of the Supreme Mage.

But when the world merged, Stephen Strange had to be exposed to the public to cast spells to prevent the space from collapsing, and reached a historic meeting with Dr. Fate, the strongest mage of the DC Justice League.Only then did everyone in the V universe know that there is such a hero who protects the earth from the multiverse invasion.

...Then it was discovered that Strange was different from the heroes everyone imagined, and he didn't fight crime at all.

No matter how much noise the super criminal makes in New York, as long as he does not threaten the multiverse, the Supreme Mage cannot take action casually, otherwise it would be too much interference in mortal affairs and contrary to his own identity.The mission of the Supreme Mage is to resist the threat of the outer dimension, and it is an abuse of power to participate in the battle casually because of one's own values.

In fact, most mage heroes act in a low-key manner. The stronger the mage, the more he pays attention to the possible impact of his actions on the world order.Generally speaking, after encountering super criminals, basically you don't need to expect any help from the heroes on the magic side.

They may see it all and help you a little, but it's not convenient to do it yourself.

"Well, it's not like the Supreme Mage doesn't do nothing, it's just that we generally don't know what they do." He Nan could only say helplessly: "A small role like a chess master is probably a trick against the Supreme Mage." I can’t even make it through, it’s not at the same level at all.”

"...He Nan, when you say this, you probably want to fight against a chess master." Xue Li listened to her ears and keenly detected the voice of He Nan's words: "Let me tell you, don't even think about it." Think. The danger is too high. Ordinary superpowers are fine, black magic is not something we can deal with at all."

"I didn't say I wanted to fight him, did I?" He Nan quickly clarified: "I just thought, since there is almost no one else in his villa, the security must be relatively poor. I can sneak in and investigate, and if he doesn't find out, I will kill him." good."

"...You just took me out?"

"Uh, because of the danger..."

"You still know the danger." Shirley gave him a white look: "I firmly disagree. Call your hero friends to go together and you won't lose a piece of meat."

"I thought about looking for them, but I feel like they will stop me if I do this." He Nan felt helpless: "But after all, we are investigating the case, so let's wait on the sidelines and let these heroes help... Is this plausible? Even if I do find something, I will feel very frustrated, and someone else's name will be credited. Besides, is the chess master the kind of guy who is not afraid of anesthesia needles and bullets? Just from defense Come to think of it, the Supreme Sorcerer can easily be killed by a pistol bullet, let alone this chess master...there is no mention of how strong his body is."

"...Well, it's not that I don't understand you." Shirley was silent for a while, and finally said: "It's just that if you really want to investigate, it's best to find a way to lure this chess master away and let him leave the villa. When he doesn't Wouldn't it be much safer to go in and investigate at home?"

"I'll figure out a way later." He Nan felt extremely troubled.

After that, they arrived at St. Patrick's Cathedral.

This is the largest Gothic-style Catholic church in the United States. Three towering spiers stand on the heights of the church. A large number of exquisite patterns and stained glass windows are decorated on it, full of beauty.

There are many people here, many of whom are tourists from all over the world.They even saw The Flash taking a selfie here - with many cheering and snapping pictures.

The Flash of this world is Barry Allen.

Although he was masked, he did not hide his identity.

Central City is far away from New York, but for The Flash, it arrives in an instant.

After He Nan got off the car, he looked over curiously.

By this time the Flash was gone.Out of the corner of his eyes, he could only catch a glimpse of a red figure that had moved rapidly into the distance.

In the blink of an eye, Barry Allen might have been at the next famous spot for a photo op.

By the way, buy a hot dog or something.

The Speed ​​Force is awesome...

Looking at all this, He Nan was extremely emotional.

You can play wherever you want, without any pressure.

There is no scenery in this world that you can't see in a lifetime because you are too far away.

"Okay... why are you still staring blankly?" Shirley called him: "The Flash is so charming, it can make you so excited. If you like it so much, it's good enough to go home and watch it."

"Being able to see it with my own eyes is of course different from seeing it on the Internet." He Nan sighed and looked at the photo of Michelle in his hand: "Okay...we should talk to someone who might know this child Chatted."

"I'm afraid I need to talk to a priest or a nun." Shirley said, "Fortunately, it's not something too old."

"That's right, otherwise we can only go to the cemetery and talk to the coffin." He Nan smiled: "Let's go... I hope my luck will be better."

It is not difficult to go in and visit.

The hard part is finding someone who understands the truth.
