Mystery: Who has seen my brother?

Chapter 149 Two Organizations
No matter how he thought about it, Alger couldn't understand why the Fool sent out two followers. It wouldn't be necessary to kill Qilingos.

Could it be... that there were other people present at that time?

Suddenly, Alger's thoughts found their direction and gradually became clear.

He found himself trapped in a misconception. Archbishop Snake's initial assessment was that there were at least two High-Sequence experts, which meant that the possibility of other High-Sequence experts existing could not be ruled out.

Although Alger didn't know the specific situation, he knew that there was a secret organization behind Qilingos.

If that's the case... Alger couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

This is a secret showdown between two secret organizations!
And Qilingos is just a victim!

In an instant, Alger's mind went blank and his breathing stopped for a moment.

Qilingos, Hurricane Vice Admiral Qilingos, a Sequence Six Beyonder, the master of a wriggling hunger, this existence that weighed down Alger's head, was nothing more than a casually tossed pawn in front of a truly powerful being.

Alger quietly clenched his hands, but quickly loosened them out of fear of being discovered.

If I betrayed Mr. Fool... Alger shuddered at the thought of Qilingos's tragic and bizarre death. He knew his fate might be even more tragic than Qilingos's.

He has already boarded this ship and there is no way to leave, so he can only offer his loyalty and value.

廷根
Klein did not receive any follow-up information on the Qilingos incident last night.

It was understandable that Miss Justice and Mr. Hanged Man, affected by the Qilingos incident and hampered their actions, did not dare to contact him rashly, but Klein was somewhat surprised that Mr. Azik and his sister had no news either.

But with Eve around, there would definitely be no problem, and Klein wasn't worried.

With this in mind, Klein boarded the trackless public carriage bound for Zouteland Street.

"Extra! Extra! 'Vice Admiral Hurricane' Qilingos was killed in Backlund!"

"Extra! Extra! Vice Admiral Hurricane Zillingos was killed in Backlund!"

The newsboy's voice came from outside the carriage. Klein was stunned for a moment, then immediately took out a one-penny coin from his pocket and handed it to the newsboy through the window, buying a copy of the Tingen Morning News.

Unfolding the newspaper, Klein immediately saw the headline:
"The Great Pirate Qilingos Was Killed by the Duke's Bodyguards in Backlund"

Is Qilingos dead? Was it Eve or Mr. Azik? Or did they both do it?
Thinking of this, Klein felt a strange feeling in his heart.

Two angels joined forces to kill, this configuration is really high, many demigods don’t have such treatment.

Although Qilingos wouldn't want such "favorable treatment"... Klein said silently in his heart.

As the boss behind this incident, I only found out about the outcome by reading the newspaper...

The news about Qilingos was short, and Klein quickly understood the general situation. However, he didn't know how much of it was true.

He put down the newspaper and looked around the carriage.

Most of those who could ride the public carriage knew words, and influenced by the newsboy's "extra edition", many of them bought the "Tingen Morning News", and some people who knew each other were talking in low voices.

"Long, long ago, pirate kings and generals were endangering shipping routes... but he is the first major pirate to be killed by the government..."

"Frankly speaking, I'm curious about what he's doing in Backlund..."

"Storm, I want to know which bodyguard of Duke Negan killed Qilingos. His bounty is 1 pounds!" pounds!

Klein's eyes suddenly widened, his thoughts becoming hazy.

With his current generous salary, it would take him more than ten years to save up ten thousand pounds even if he did not eat or drink.

As the boss behind the scenes, can I get a share? Just a little bit will do...

Klein pondered this silently, but he also knew it was impossible. He folded the newspaper in disappointment and looked out the window.

……

Backlund, inside an apartment
A black cat jumped onto the windowsill with a newspaper in its mouth and entered the house through the window.

She placed the newspaper in her mouth on the sofa, jumped off, shook her body, and meowed twice towards Xio and Fors's room.

"Ray?"

Xio opened the door and walked out, but there was no response to Fors's door. Ruirui guessed that she was still asleep. After a few days of getting along, Ruirui got to know Fors's personality.

"Look at today's newspaper." Ruirui raised her paw and pointed at the newspaper on the sofa.

Xio was stunned for a moment, then ran to the sofa and picked up the newspaper.

Opening the newspaper, the big headline caught Hugh's eye:
"The Great Pirate Qilingos Was Killed by the Duke's Bodyguards in Backlund"

Qilingos is dead!

Xio was stunned, confused and shocked. They had been on guard against the possibility of Qilingos's counterattack, but they didn't expect that the next information they received about him was the news of Qilingos's death.

"Since Qilingos has been killed, I'm leaving too." Ruirui said, then jumped out of the window and disappeared from Xio's sight in an instant.

Ruirui's voice suddenly brought Xiu back to reality. She opened her mouth to say thank you but found that Ruirui had disappeared.

……

In Backlund's Cherwood district, the always dim apartment finally saw sunlight.

After Rarity and Eve leave, Eve's clone who remains in Backlund occasionally opens the curtains to let sunlight into the house.

Eve returned to Backlund's house and enjoyed the bright sunlight in this sunny house, which was rare.

But Ruirui didn't like it. As a vampire cat, she was not afraid of the sun, but she hated it very much.

It is really unpleasant to come home and find that the sun is all over the place, which I hate.

Eve saw obvious disgust on the cat's face, whose mouth couldn't be seen clearly. He chuckled and reached out to draw the curtains.

He hadn't opened the curtains for a long time; it had become a habit. Even though Ruirui had gone to Backlund to protect the two wild Beyonders and wouldn't be back in the short term, Eve hadn't opened the curtains. She would only occasionally open the curtains of the house where her clone had lived for a long time.

After the two sought Rarity's help, Audrey told her that two of her friends were in danger and asked Eve to protect them, offering her a price. However, after the two had already contacted Rarity, she declined, saying she needed to think about it. The next time they met, Audrey reassured her that her two friends were out of danger.

Eve picked up Ruirui and rubbed her little head. The soft cat fur felt good when it rubbed against her palm.
