Mystery: Big Alarm Clock Ghroth Path

Chapter 124 Iron Blood Cross

Although Williams had been dead for some time and spiritual communication was no longer possible, fortunately, there were still some of his uncleaned body tissues left at the scene, giving Klein the opportunity to perform dream divination.

"who are you?"

Upon seeing Klein enter, the Sivellas Field police officer who was finishing up evidence collection at the scene immediately stopped him.

"My name is Moriarty, and I'm a friend of Detective Eisinger Stanton."

Klein answered very freely.

In fact, after he figured out that Detective Isengard was the old man "Eye of Wisdom" who organized underground Beyonders' gatherings, he immediately thought of using the other party's identity to enter the scene of some crimes.

Since Eisinger directly served at Sivellas Field and often operated at the grassroots level, Klein believed that many police officers should know him.

As for whether Eisinger would prompt the police to list him as a "suspicious person" out of dissatisfaction afterwards, Klein was not worried at all.

After all, as a Beyonder skilled in reasoning, Isengard could easily establish an inadequate connection between Klein's activities using his name and the latter's knowledge of his true nature as a Beyonder.

This will only hinder the other party and make them wonder how much Moriarty knows.

In this way, Isengard is likely to further contact Klein privately rather than comment on the latter's behavior in public.

As expected, the officer opposite was slightly taken aback when he heard Klein say he was a friend of Isengard Stanton, but he didn't try to stop him.
"Don't disrupt the scene and don't cause trouble." He instructed.

"Thank you."

Klein nodded gratefully, put on a mask and a pair of white gloves professionally, and then entered the scene.

"Williams' blood, Williams' blood..."

Soon, relying on his intuition, Klein found a half-dried but not yet completely solidified bloodstain on the metal bracket at the bottom of the wooden box.

"This is it."

He had an idea and immediately used gloves to collect the bloodstains as evidence, and then put them into a pre-prepared evidence bag.

Considering that blood is one of the things on a person's body that is most strongly associated with mysticism, just this little bit of blood is enough for Klein to perform "dream divination"!

Klein put away the evidence and thanked the police officers at the scene again. Then he entered a small restaurant nearby and temporarily used the bathroom. He then walked four steps backwards and arrived above the gray fog.

"The scene the deceased saw before his death..."

Seeing that Klein had entered the restaurant, Roger stopped hiding himself and walked out quickly.

Because he had heard Klein announce the initiation mission for Fors and Xio to Miss Justice at the Tarot Club last time, he had guessed that this mission was likely related to Ince Zangwill.

This was also the reason why he ignored Klein's dissuasion and insisted on following behind.

Although the current Ince Zangwill no longer has 0-08, he is still the object of manipulation and play by all parties, just like in the original novel, so many clues can be found through his behavior.

"There are signs of burning and explosions... Is this an arsonist?"

Roger, who was familiar with the characteristics of the twenty-two pathways, saw through the scene at a glance.

The Arsonist is a Sequence 7 on the Hunter pathway, and there aren't many Beyonders in the civilian world who can advance to Sequence 7... unless there's an organization that masters this pathway.

Roger first thought of the Intis group related to Bakerland, including the Zmanger Party.

Based on the information currently available, many of them are Beyonders of the Hunter Path. Even the First-Class Military Attaché who was killed by Roger in the Intis Embassy and was about to replace Bakeran as the new head of intelligence was a Sequence 8 "Provocateur" of the Hunter Path.

The second is the Iron-Blooded Cross, which, like the Aurora Society, believes in the "True Creator" and masters the "Hunter" path.

Because Roger had found the "Blood Cross Brooch" from Bakeran's safe, a magical item that clearly corresponded to the "Hunter" Path Sequence 5 "Reaper", Roger had reason to believe that Bakeran... and even Intis's overseas offices in Loen, had some unclear connection with the "Iron Cross".

Roger took out a coin and muttered to himself:

"This bombing and murder case is related to the Iron Cross."

After silently repeating the divination target seven times, Roger tossed the coin.

What appeared in his hand was the "King's Head".

"really……"

Roger nodded secretly. He did not try to use the power of "Oneness of All Things" to obtain more information.

First, it was not cost-effective, and second, he saw Klein had already walked out of the small restaurant next door, obviously having completed the "dream divination."

Roger could try to get some detailed information from Klein after he returned to 15 Minsk Street, but since he had already confirmed that the mastermind behind the scenes was the Iron Cross, it would not matter even if Klein didn't say it.

"The only question now is why Ince is colluding with the Iron Cross..."

As Roger thought about this, he used the "Life-Gambling Revolver" and "Traveler's Dice" to return to 15 Minsk Street before Klein.

However, he waited for a long time, but Klein did not come back. Roger finally reacted and found the previous day's "Backlund Daily" on the dining table.

"Ernst Trading Company's goods purchase notice..."

Roger laughed dumbly:

"This guy didn't even remind me that there was a Beyonder gathering today... Looks like he was planning to secretly buy something.

"It's most likely the extraordinary weapon given to Little Sun..."

After figuring out the reason, Roger cooked dinner for himself and also made a cat meal for Bandit, who had just woken up. It was around 10 pm when Klein returned home, looking lost.

"Klein didn't look like this when he came out of the restaurant earlier..."

Although Roger was aware that Klein's bad mood was affected by Williams' death, there was probably another important reason: Klein spent too many gold pounds when purchasing weapons for "Sun", causing his deposit to drop significantly for a while.

"The 'God of Poverty' is indeed worthy of its reputation..."

He placed a plate of lamb stewed with peas on the table and called Klein to eat.

"How about it?"

Roger took a sip of his soup and then spoke.

He was asking about the "informant".

"Not very good... By the way, Roger, is there any way to release the flaming crows and cause an explosion?"

At this moment, Klein suddenly remembered the encyclopedia of mysticism in front of him and asked hurriedly.

"Flame Crow?"

Roger frowned and pretended to think for a while before saying:

"If it's just an explosion, then there are at least two ways to do it... but if it's a flaming crow, then there's only one way.

"That's the Hunter Path. Their potion at Sequence 7 is called Arsonist. Arsonist can launch attacks using various means, including fireballs, flaming spears, and fire crows."

Roger explained in detail to Klein the Arsonist abilities he possessed, and then asked again:

"Why, did you meet the 'arsonist'?"

"Well, it should be."

Klein nodded and thought for a while before continuing:

"Is there any organization...that has mastered the 'Hunter' path?"

Roger thought for a moment before answering:

"If you want me to give you an accurate list... I can't, because as far as I know, there are several families that have been passed down from the Fourth Epoch who have mastered this path.

"But if you ask me about the organization that has been relatively active since the beginning of the Fifth Epoch and that has mastered this path, I will tell you it is the Iron Cross.

"It's worth mentioning that they believe in the 'True Creator'."

"The True Creator? Isn't that the same as the 'Aurora Society'?"

Klein was stunned for a moment and blurted out.

"Yes... In fact, because of the Aurora Society, I am also looking for clues about the Iron Cross." Roger gave an affirmative answer and added.

He said this just to provide himself with sufficient reasons for the subsequent investigation of the Iron Cross. As for the reason for the investigation, he casually passed it on to the Aurora Society, which shared the same beliefs as the Iron Cross.

"Thank you, Roger, this information is very useful to me."

Klein exhaled, finished the rice in his bowl, and then went to get another one.

"By the way, Summer's maid invited us to a party at her house. Are you interested?"

Klein suddenly asked.

"I'm not going... I don't want to hear Mrs. Summer talk about her middle-class standards of income and behavior."

Roger smiled cunningly, meaning that you can't get me to share the firepower with you.

"You guy..."

Klein sighed and said nothing more.

After dinner, he passed the information he had investigated about the murderer of Williams to Audrey Hall, who had previously sent a prayer, through the "gray fog".

At this moment, Audrey was with her friend Viscount Greylint, and also with them happened to be two extraordinary people, Hugh Dilcha and Fors Wall.

Audrey deliberately walked around and chatted with the servants before returning to the room where her friends were.

"Xiu, come here for a moment. I have something to tell you."

Xio was slightly stunned, then she immediately realized that Audrey had gotten a new clue, and immediately stood up and followed.

Five minutes later, Xio savored the news he had just received and muttered to himself:

"The Iron Cross... arsonists..."

This put her in a difficult position. As a Sequence 9, she had not anticipated that her opponent would be a Sequence 7 Beyonder. Even if she and Fors were to join forces, they would certainly not be able to defeat him.

"You don't have to do it yourself. You just need to find out where the Iron Cross is based in Backlund. Someone here will help you take out the guy who killed your friend... I emphasize again, don't get in close contact with them. It's really dangerous."

Seeing this, Audrey told Mr. Fool's instructions.
