Wrong Ground, Spiral Twins

"The minority obeys the majority, right?"
Hestia clapped her hands and then looked at Bell with a smile, "So, Bell, what do you want to do?"
"Me? I don't know either. Since the captain..."
"Bell, right now you may be deciding the fate of another person~!"
Under Hestia's meaningful gaze, Bell opened and closed his mouth, but the words he wanted to say could no longer be uttered.
For a moment, the hall fell into a long silence.
Su Mo was eating snacks, Hestia was drinking tea, and only Bell was sitting there with a changing expression.
"Can I save her?"
Finally, the long silence was broken by a soft question.
After asking this question, Bell's eyes gradually became firm, and his voice unconsciously began to rise, "If possible, I want to save her, just like the Lord God and the captain saved me."
"Even if she's not a supporter, but a thief who makes a living by deceiving people?"
"Yes."
Bell nodded heavily, but he seemed to feel that this was not convincing enough, and quickly continued to add: "I can feel that she is not a bad person. I was able to break through the encirclement of the monsters yesterday, and I also relied on her help."
"If you are just expressing your gratitude, you can't convince me. If you really want to save a child like that, you can't just take him away from the Soma clan."
"She is a very good supporter. With her around yesterday, we gained a lot more... although we lost it all in the end."
"If I heard correctly, this means that you are willing to be responsible for her in the future, right?"
"Yes! I'm willing to help her."
"But what if she still continues to do evil even with your help?"
"She won't."
Bell said this in a firm tone.
Su Mo was somewhat surprised by this answer, "Why not?"
"Because if she continues to do evil, I will no longer help her, and then the guild will definitely punish her."
Hearing this, Su Mo couldn't help but snap his fingers.
"I didn't realize that you, Bell, have also learned the trick of threatening."
"No, this is not a threat... My grandfather once told me that if a person truly repents, then there is no need for others to do anything. Just giving him a chance is enough."
At this moment, Bell's expression was extremely solemn, "The only help I can give her is this opportunity."
After hearing these words and seeing Bell like this, Su Mo finally stopped talking and just turned his gaze to Hestia.
"Since Bell has expressed his opinion, I will definitely vote for Bell."
Hestia raised her index finger, and finally slowly pointed it at Bell, "But if she can't pass my test, I won't let her into the family."
"That's enough."
Bell stood up excitedly, "Thank you, Lord God!"
Two to one!
Seeing this, Su Mo wiped his hands and said, "In this case, I will go to bed first. I will probably go out in the second half of the night, so you don't have to worry."
"Captain, where are you going?"
"Suspicion is just suspicion after all, and we always need to confirm it in the end."
Furthermore, if one wants to rob money and people from the Soma clan, one must always make some preparations.
Looking at his leader's back as he walked up the stairs, Bell suddenly realized, "Leader, have you been prepared for this?"
Hestia smiled brightly, "If it's Su, then you probably think that child is perfect to make up for your shortcomings!"
One is simple and innocent, sincere and enthusiastic towards others, while the other has suffered from bullying since childhood, has been struggling to grow up in the dark quagmire, and dares not show his true face to others. The two sides of the same coin in the sun probably refers to this situation.
"Captain...did he say this on purpose just for me?"
"No! Bell, if you can't show your determination, Su will definitely do what he chooses."
A child who is bullied, exploited, abandoned, helpless, and struggling alone in a dark corner, growing up little by little, if she still retains kindness and light deep in her heart, then she is indeed worth saving.
but……
"…She's not the only one who needs to be saved!"
"Ah? Lord God, what are you talking about?"
The last murmur was so faint that even Bell, who was sitting at a table away, couldn't hear it clearly.
"Bell, can you hear me..."
"what?"
"That silent wail!"

Chapter 87: The moon is dark and the wind is strong.
When it comes to finding people, Su Mo is naturally not an expert.
Fortunately, he knew an angel investor who was quite professional in this area.
"The Ganesha clan found out that Dylan wandered around the North District Guild's residential area for a long time last night and caused a riot."
It was already past midnight, around one or two o'clock. Su Mo got up and got dressed while listening to the news coming from the communication bead.
As for who is 'Dylan'?
Of course it was last night... No, it was the one who was committing violence the night before and was killed yesterday morning.
"Based on the clues you gave me, I checked the area nearby and found that an elf from outside had checked into the Elf Hotel that night. However, I checked the entry and exit records from yesterday and found no such elf."
"The Elf Hotel?"
"It's a hotel that specializes in receiving elves. It's a well-known welcoming place for elves. The environment is comfortable, the price is cheap, and you can get help from your fellow elves. For elves who have just arrived in Orario, it's the best place to stay temporarily."
"It's amazing that you can find this kind of blind spot so quickly."
If he looked for it himself, Su Mo believed that he would never be able to find such a place in a short period of time.
Who could have thought that the pure and proud elves actually had a tribe of dwarfs hiding in their exclusive habitat.
"As long as you connect the clues together, it's not difficult to find."
It's not difficult, if it's just for you, the 'guild ghost'.
"Is she still in the hotel?"
Su Mo had no intention of hiding the murder case, and the person the guild was trying to find. Moreover, if the Somo clan wanted to make them bow down, the Hestia clan alone was not enough.
However, it would not be appropriate to make it public in advance, so after much thought, only Fels, the "Guild Ghost", is the best partner.
Look, he just gave some clues and did a favor, and now he has received "official" intelligence support, and can even do some less legal things under the witness of "semi-official".
“That’s all I found.”
"Okay, I'll go over and take a look now."
After putting on his clothes and cloak, Su Mo finally picked up his weapon. "What about you? Are you going over there?"
"I did a rough investigation on her, and as you said, the probability of her being involved in another murder is very small."
"Not going? You don't need to sleep, do you?"
You skeleton, do you still need to sleep?
"You are saying something very disrespectful."
"It's always good to be able to confirm and investigate in advance. At least it can prevent the guild from wasting unnecessary energy, right?"
"..."
"Meet you at the entrance of the Elf Hotel."
It's a dark night for murder, and a windy day for arson. It's the first time I've played this in my life, and I really don't have any experience. I feel a little nervous when I go out without a bodyguard!
"See you at the door."
Fels finally responded by taking a walk.
In fact, if he wants to confirm whether that person is a suspect or not, he can just ask someone to go to the Elf Hotel tomorrow and ask, "What time did she go out yesterday morning?" It will be very easy to confirm and there is no need for him to make another trip.
But the person opposite him obviously didn't want him to refuse.
……——……
Orario, North District.
Starting from the Central Square and arriving at the middle and back sections of the bustling commercial street, you can see clusters of high-end residential areas. Among these residential areas, one is the most special.
This specialness is not just about the superior environment, but the fact that the protection of this residential area is far stronger than other residential areas. This can be directly seen from the number of night patrol teams.
However, if you understand that most of the people living here are related to the guild, you won't be surprised.
In terms of the number of people, the Guild is undoubtedly the largest clan faction in Orario, but the guild members who have not been endowed with the "God's Grace" are also very weak, and it is inevitable that they need protection.
Su Mo withdrew his gaze from the guild members' residential area and returned his eyes to the two-story exquisite hotel in front of him.
“You really know how to pick a place!”
Although it is not included in the key protection area, it is close to the residential area of guild members and can be seen by patrol teams passing by, so its safety must be guaranteed.
Security, xenophobia, and blind spots in thinking.
If we didn't know for sure that the target would transform, it would be difficult to lock onto this place for a while.
"He is indeed a clever little fellow."
The voice came from the side, but no one was seen.
Of course, to outsiders, there was no one outside the hotel.
"How do we get in?"
After taking a closer look, Su Mo humbly asked his senior for advice.
Without saying anything, Fels took a step forward and pushed the door open.
Su Mo raised his head and looked at the silent bell behind the door.
The door opened silently, the footsteps were silent, even the bell made no sound. At this moment, Su Mo gained a further understanding of the rumors about the "Guild Ghost".
Take steps to keep up.
Although it was not completely soundless, the super-domain enhancement of "Xun Zu" could also make his footsteps almost silent when he walked.
Lily Lucaard——
Having successfully found the target, Su Mo looked at the little human who was curled up against the wall and sleeping soundly. He gently touched the magic stone lamp with his index finger and turned on the light in the room.
"Who?"
Almost at the moment when the magic stone lamp lit up, the dwarfs, who were obviously insecure, woke up.
Like the frightened cat in the picture, he woke up and subconsciously half-sat up, looking around the room anxiously.
"Lily Lucaard..."
Following the voice, the Dwarf saw a dark shadow appear under the light.
This scene undoubtedly frightened the dwarf. She subconsciously wanted to scream, but the moment she opened her mouth, a ball of compressed air poured into her throat first.
"You can shout, but if you call more people, some things can't be hidden anymore."
The moment she heard the other voice, Lililuka saw a figure with black hair and black eyes appear next to the figure in black long gown, which made her feel somewhat familiar.
Hestia's family, Su Mo... Lililuka quickly found the information about this person in her mind. This was a target she had once locked onto.
"You...you, who are you?"
Although she realized why the two people came, the little human didn't show it on the surface. She was still extremely nervous and terrified even as she was wrapped in a sheet.
"Lily Lucaard, I am here on behalf of the guild to ask you a question - where were you between four and six yesterday morning? Is there anyone who can testify?"
