The Secret Code of Monsters

Chapter 510 Ch.509 Case

It takes a while for Randolph to help Roland find land for sale - not everyone is selling land all the time, especially in the pearl of London, especially in the best "rich" avenue in the West End of the pearl of London.

This takes a while, waiting for the unlucky guy to lose his family, or to develop some noble but addictive hobbies.

For example, gambling, investment, taking those fashionable "medical supplements", being keen on adventure or finding yourself a dozen lovers who will never be satisfied - according to Randolph, gambling addicts are usually the easiest to let go, but there are many troubles later.

Investment and "explorers" are the best choices, and the families of these people are very easy to satisfy.

As for finding yourself a dozen, or twenty or thirty lovers, it's best not to touch it.

If you don't want a few women with babies to appear at your doorstep one day.

Roland said that this behavior of picking "family-breaking" targets really opened his eyes, and Randolph said of course, because they pay. Regardless of the era, the person who pays should take the initiative.

Roland said that in this case, can we find someone who was killed by a dragon's kiss while going out on an adventure?

Randolph told him to get out.

Anyway, there was no rush for the house, so it was just time for old Collins to say goodbye to his neighbors - it was called farewell, but it should be called showing off.

‘Good day... What? You actually saw that I was moving away? ’

‘A rose petal, please cherish it - no no, I mean, we will meet again in the West District, ma'am. ’

‘Give me four potatoes, yes, thank you. I really hope that potatoes in the West District are so affordable. ’

‘Oh! Of course, of course! I am really haggard recently, am I not? I guess my face is definitely full of farewell, right? ’

Then it goes back to the first sentence.

According to Yam, Pushu Collins has been very annoying recently.

No matter what he talked about, he could accurately and without leaving any trace (or shamelessly) get around to the issue of "moving away", and at the same time, the sad and complicated look he put on seemed to imply a tragedy that should receive countless "apologies" and "I'm sorry".

But when people asked him about it, he immediately changed his face and told the other party happily that he was going to the West End, and emphasized his "reluctance", "reluctant to leave the neighbors who had been with him for many years", and "hated to be with social rhetoric all day long" - such good things are difficult to make the audience "satisfied".

In short, it's disgusting.

Roland thought he had the qualifications to be a politician, and discussed with Yam whether he should stay here for another half a year, and told old Collins that his business was not good and he had no money to buy a big house - he really wanted to see the end of the big talker.

Yam said that if you do this, it will easily anger your uncle to death.

Roland said that you should not love me much if you defend a strange man like this.

Yam was so angry that he asked him to get out.

However

Mr. Collins, the idle man who was kicked out twice, will soon be busy.

Captain Fernandez, who was ‘finally cured’, came to the door.

A case.

His temporary ‘imprisonment’ was lifted.

“It’s not a big case.”

The captain said.

“But you also know that recently…”

Fernandez was referring to a major event that happened some time ago: before the fall of the Elephant Gang, many babies were lost in London.

This has a very bad impact.

“Cultists?” Roland asked.

“Maybe not.”

Fernandez said that this time was not as crazy as the last time. Compared with cultists or other organizations, he thought it was more like a ‘little hobby’ of a lone madman.

“Before, there were hundreds of missing people in half a month.” The captain told Roland that this time there were only a few, and the first discovery was the Ring of Eternal Silence—they received a report that the cemetery in the suburbs was dug up and the bodies of babies were lost.

"Gravedigger?"

"It doesn't make sense." Fernandez shook his head: "There are only two purposes for desecrating the dead. Either to covet the burial objects, or to steal the corpse and perform a ritual - one side is for mortals, the other side is for ritualists."

Here is a problem.     The ritual that requires a "corpse" is completely different from the ritual that requires a "baby corpse".

Whether it is the science of the mortal world or the mysticism of the ritualist world, the two are very different.

- For the ritualist, if you dare to fool with the materials, the ritual will also dare to fool you with the effect.

And as far as Fernandez knows, there are very few rituals that use "baby corpses", most of which belong to the "great rituals" of the Ring of Eternal Silence - that is, the power that can only be bathed in "Elegy" and "Dry Bones".

So.

Is it possible that the baby thief is a ritualist who has walked on these two paths...?

Not necessarily.

Because after the cemetery was dug up and the dead baby was lost, a couple in the South District called the police, claiming that an eight-month-old baby boy was missing from their home.

Alive.

This is very strange.

Because in the city of London, you can buy ritual materials such as dead babies (Father of All Things, forgive him for saying so), without going through the Ring of Eternal Silence.

This does not violate the laws of ritualists, nor the laws of mortals - living babies are illegal.

Only members of the Ring of Eternal Silence have the right to "legally" (the laws of mortals and ritualists) purchase "living baby materials".

"So, if the grave robber is a "dry bone" or "elegy", he should start with legal and less noticeable aspects, such as..."

"First, legally purchase some dead babies, and finally, steal illegal live babies - if he is really a ritualist on these two paths and has not joined the Eternal Silence Circle, this is the simplest, most logical, and least troublesome way to do it."

Fernandez said.

"I don't think he would touch the bottom line of the Eternal Silence Circle again and again just to save a little money."

You know, all the dead belong to the Lord of the White Crown of the Wasteland.

The souls of those who believe in Him go to the Land of the Dead.

And the pagans, their flesh and blood left in the world, which rots over time, will also be taken over by the followers of the Lord of the White Crown of the Wasteland - of course, this refers to a certain group.

A group that can't even hold a decent funeral, can't afford a good tomb, and can't be buried in those "special" and "protected by Him" ​​cemeteries.

Mins Chloe is an exception.

His body left in the world should have been properly kept until the end of the world - just like the other dead in that cemetery.

His father paid, and the followers of the Ring of Eternal Silence would never touch the body, or even look at it.

They were trustworthy and followed the doctrine.

It was just a regrettable little accident.

A small accident about street lights and carrots.

Fernandez said that the murderer's behavior was equivalent to pinching the balls of those dirty guys who played with the corpse, and he planned to continue pinching.

"Just like you don't allow thieves to visit your house, they don't allow non-believers to touch 'their' property."

Roland heard the irony in the words and couldn't help sighing:

"It's hard for me to imagine that my body will be placed on a stone platform for these people to watch, skinned, refined into oil, or swallowed in some strange way after I die..."

Fernandez shrugged: "Have you paid the membership fee for the funeral club?"

"No. What's the matter?"

"I guess you haven't asked," he told Roland: "You can buy the highest level, our salary is enough. In this way, not only will you have a decent funeral after death, a tomb protected by bone white doves, but your body will also enjoy 'silence' forever."

Fernandez paused: "It means that those dirty guys won't touch your body."

Roland said that he would rather use the money to raise rats than give those people a penny.

"What will happen when you die?"

"You should think about this problem before me, Captain Devinson."
