"Hehe, you must know that you will suffer the consequences if you anger me, so you don't dare to do it again!"

"You are such a cunning murderer! Even if you want to stop, I, Funina, will personally bring you to justice!"

Seeing that Funina seemed to have regained her spirits, Clorinde was worried about her mental state. After all, if she really came face to face with that vicious murderer, who knew how scared Funina would be.

"Lady Fininna, I have something to discuss with you."

"Although those nobles have been punished, the injured workers still need to be comforted, so I would like to leave for a while to deal with this matter. I will come back as soon as possible to protect Lady Funina's safety."

After hearing what Clorinde said, the expression on Funina's face froze, and then she subconsciously wanted to act coquettishly and cutely to ask Clorinde to stay, but when she thought that the other party did have important things to do, she forcibly suppressed her willful request.

"Well, go ahead, Clorinde."

"But you must come back soon!"

Furninna hugged her arms tightly. Knowing that Clorinde was going to leave, she suddenly felt insecure.

"I will be back as soon as possible, Lady Furninna."

Clorinde once again told the others to protect Funina, then left in a hurry.

Chapter 52: Key Clues

When Linny and Linnet discovered that the people from the [Court of Enforcement] who were chasing them had completely disappeared, and that they could even walk on the streets openly without any problems, they originally thought that it was the [Servant] Alechino who helped them solve the problem. However, after they re-established contact with the intelligence of the Fatui, they found out that it was the [Court of Enforcement] itself that had encountered problems that were difficult to solve.

The fire at Fontaine burned a little too fiercely.

However, Linny and Linnet also clearly noticed that the nobles suffered losses this time. It was probably the same as before, and this time the incident was caused by the murderer of the serial suicide case.

It’s not that the nobles would not do such inhumane things as massacring the elderly, but they would not do it so obviously, as if they were afraid that others would not know.

There were more than just these few innocent lives that died at the hands of the nobles. Countless bones had already covered every inch of Fontaine's land. But why had there never been an outbreak of public indignation as uncontrollable as it is today? The main reason was that the nobles were very smart and would not let their ugly deeds be exposed to the sun.

Even though a massacre was carried out in Baisong Town more than 500 years ago, because of the control of public opinion, it only gave Navilette an excuse to place Meluse in the [Shadow Chaser Court] to curb the nobles' all-powerful power. Those nobles still had nothing to worry about and lived a carefree life with good food and drink every day.

In order to satisfy their own special hobbies, they even artificially created unsolved cases where the murderer could not be found, and then left the orphans...

There was incredible anger in Linny's eyes. If Alechino had not arrived in time, his sister would have become a plaything of the nobles.

Linni did not think that those nobles deserved sympathy. Even though he knew that the murderer in this incident should have nothing to do with the nobles, he was not prepared to clarify the truth for those nobles.

Linny and Linnet return to the Buffalo Mansion and make contact with Charlotte who is hiding there.

After Charlotte left the Steambird newspaper, she didn't want to be implicated with Navia, so she went to Linnie, who readily arranged a hiding place for her.

"You are finally back, Mr. Linnie and Miss Linnet!"

When Charlotte saw Linny and Linnet, an extremely anxious expression appeared on her face.

"Have you investigated the cause of Mr. Baker's death?"

Because Charlotte has been hiding in the Buffati Mansion for some time, Linny and Linnet have also been avoiding the pursuit of the [Law Court] and collecting clues, so they haven't remembered to update Charlotte on the information.

Then Linnie briefly described to Charlotte what had happened recently in Fontaine. After hearing this, Charlotte's face showed an expression of extreme shock.

One reason is that the number of dead people is hundreds of times greater than Charlotte had imagined, but the most important thing is that Linnie speculates that the murderer of the serial suicides should be helping the Gray River forces.

Soon, uncontrollable anger appeared in Charlotte's eyes again.

"You said they were helping the people who live in the Grey River?"

"Is this the method? Sacrificing the lives of innocent people in the Gray River one after another."

"Why do they think they can decide whether these people live or die? Who do they think they are?"

"No one cares about a victory built on countless corpses!"

"They are pure devils, murderers, and no decoration can cover up the crimes they have committed!"

"Miss Charlotte, please calm down. Now we need to speculate on the next purpose of the mysterious organization and its possible current location."

"This will ensure that there are no new victims."

Compared to the excited Charlotte, Linny and Linnet's expressions were much calmer. What they had experienced was far beyond what Charlotte had experienced.

Of course, this is also the reason why Charlotte has been unable to fully trust the two of them, because she cannot see through Linnie and Linnet, and the image they both present seems like a disguise to Charlotte.

But at this moment, they are partners on the same path.

Charlotte took a deep breath and then spoke slowly.

"Mr. Linney, you are right. I am indeed too impatient."

"It's okay Miss Charlotte, I understand. After all, that happened before."

"Here's some candy."

Linnet stuffed the candy in her hand into Charlotte's hand expressionlessly.

"You'll feel better if you eat something sweet."

"Oh, okay, thank you."

Charlotte was stunned for a moment, then she opened the candy and put it in her mouth. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but the uncomfortable feeling that was about to suffocate her was much lessened.

"Linette, when did you secretly buy the candy? Be careful not to exceed the calorie limit!"

Seeing this, Linnie put one hand on his waist and showed a helpless smile on his face.

"Humph, no."

Linnet simply turned her head away, trying to escape from reality.

"You guys have such a good relationship."

Charlotte felt the sweetness in her mouth and spoke with some emotion after seeing the interaction between the two.

At this moment, Charlotte couldn't help but recall the unforgettable figure. Although the other party left a key message with his life, she still didn't understand it until now...

Suddenly, Charlotte was stunned for a moment, and then a light reflected in her eyes.

"Mr. Linnie, do you think it is possible that the organization is in the Gray River?"

After hearing Charlotte's speculation, Linnie raised his hand, touched his chin, and nodded repeatedly.

"It is indeed possible, and the possibility is very high."

“If you hadn’t stayed in the Gray River for a long time, it wouldn’t have been easy to make such a big noise.”

"If that's the case, then the mysterious organization would do this not to help the people living in Gray River, but to cover up their own hiding place."

"It just so happens that I know Miss Navia from the Thorn Rose Society. If that mysterious organization is really in the Gray River, I believe Miss Navia will be able to help!"

After hearing Linnie agree with her speculation, Charlotte suddenly became impatient.

But at this moment, Linnie also spoke up to wake him up.

"If that's the case, Miss Navia is indeed a good helper."

"But all this is based on the premise that Miss Navia is 'innocent'."

"Although I don't want to doubt Miss Charlotte's friend emotionally, the fact is that I don't know her very well, so I hope Miss Charlotte won't reveal too much information we know."

Linny's words gradually calmed down Charlotte, who had just begun to understand something. Although Charlotte was unwilling to doubt Navia, she could not find a reason to convince Linny, so she nodded seriously.

"Okay, I promise you."

Chapter 53 I, Luo Fan, swear to fight the murderer to the death

Looking at the ground in front of me that was painted dark red by blood, it stretched to the end of my vision, and even the walls on both sides were dyed dark red.

Even after being washed by dirty river water for several hours, pink can still be seen floating on the water.

At this moment, everyone was extremely silent, but the fire in their eyes burned more and more fiercely, and the expressions on their faces became more and more terrifying.

The atmosphere became increasingly tense, and finally someone couldn't help but explode.

"I can't stand those damn nobles any more. I'm going to fight them to the death!"

"Are you going to risk your life? You are going to die, stay here!"

Luo Fan spoke sternly, stopping the man's idiotic behavior.

"Mr. Grete, I know you have done a great service to everyone in Gray River, and I admire you deeply."

"But I beg you this time, please let me go!"

“Seeing what happened here, I feel so sad!”

"If I can't let it out right away, I'm afraid I'll go completely crazy!"

Two lines of hot tears slid down the face of the eight-foot-tall man. The emotions contained in his words moved countless people, and even Navia couldn't help herself this time.

"I told you, no one is allowed to go!"

"This matter is not as simple as you think."

"If I let you go like this, it would be irresponsible to you!"

"You must remember that everyone here may die, but it must not be a meaningless death!"

After Luo Fan said these words while gathering his emotions, he took a few steps forward and raised his hand to wipe the marks he had left earlier.

"Come and see here."

After hearing Luo Fan's words, everyone turned their eyes to the wall and saw some familiar words.

They all felt familiar with what was carved on the wall, as if they had seen it somewhere before.

...Oh, yes, it was the last message left by the victims of the serial jumping case.

Although some of the details were unfamiliar, that was because the security team did not release the details of the case later, but when everyone thought about the number of victims, they found that it corresponded exactly to the number of sentences, and expressions of horror and disbelief appeared on everyone's faces.

"Mr. Grete, does this mean..."

"Your idea should be correct. Everything here was done by the serial suicide murderer."

"And either the murderer is from the nobles, or they have reached some kind of cooperative relationship."

Luo Fan spoke without blushing or beating his heart.

After hearing Luo Fan's words, everyone felt as if a mountain was pressing down on their hearts.

If what happened here was done by the nobles sending their own private soldiers, it would only make everyone angry.

But if everything here is done by one person, everyone will just be panicking.

"Also, the number of victims this time is as high as hundreds or even thousands. If they were people in the areas we are protecting, it is impossible that they would not have noticed anything at all."

"Navia, please arrange for someone to go down and count the total population."

"is teacher."

Seeing that even after such a thing happened, Luo Fan still remained absolutely rational and calm, Navia suddenly felt a little ashamed.

Her decision now could affect many people. If she lost her mind, it was very likely that everyone would be killed.

She had to complete the transformation as soon as possible, otherwise she was worried that she would cause irreparable damage to herself.

The results came out very quickly, and no one was missing in any living area.

After hearing the news, everyone present was visibly relieved.

Although so many people died in Huihe this time, everyone felt much better after knowing that they were not people they were familiar with.

"Mr. Gretel, what should we do next?"

"Although these people who died did not accept our protection, can we just let this matter go?"

"of course not!"

Luo Fan spoke in a decisive tone, his eyes red and an expression of great anger on his face.

"Even if these victims are not the ones we protect, the murderer's inhumane behavior has completely angered me!"

"If he stays in this world, he will only harm more innocent people. Death is his best destination!"

"I, Gretel, swear that I will avenge all those who died tragically at his hands, and I will never stop until I die!"

"We will fight the murderer to the death!"

Luo Fan's powerful words completely ignited the emotions of everyone present, and then the deafening response of the crowd echoed in the Gray River for a long time.

Suddenly, Luo Fan's eyes lit up and he stared at the marks on the wall.
