Section 1483 Murder in Gusttown

To say that Alex is interesting is not to refer to his character. Instead, Angel discovered that this Alex had a very peculiar aura. If the aura is compared to an aura, then everyone else is shrouded in a layer of gray, but Alex is as bright and dazzling as daylight.

Because the only power Angel could use now was illusion, he didn't see why Alex had such an aura that was so different from the others.

Angels simply began to observe this Alex.

In the process of observing, Angel also noticed that this Alex seemed to be able to see himself, and when the other people's eyes swept over him, they were all unaware because of their blind illusions. But when Alex's eyes swept over him, although he hid it well, the slight reaction of his pupils betrayed him.

Could this Alex be a transcendent being?

Angel thought that Alex would keep pretending not to see him, but he didn't expect that when all the people in the church left, he took the initiative to talk to him.

"Are you a ghost?" Alex asked again.

Angel looked at Alex, a white-haired boy who looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old, and when he faced himself, he had no other emotions, no fear, no surprise, just curiosity.

If this is a four- or five-year-old child, naΓ―ve and ignorant, that's it. But Alex is obviously very thoughtful, but his mind is not on others, but on himself.

There is an attitude of "indifferent to what is there and what is not" when dealing with foreign objects and even outsiders.

The appearance of Angel can make him show a trace of curiosity, which is not easy.

"Have you ever seen a ghost?" asked Ingres.

"It seems that you are not a ghost. Alex said very firmly.

"You're observant. Ingres nodded noncommittally.

Alex continued to answer Ingres' previous question: "I don't know if I've ever seen a ghost, maybe I did, that's what my heart told me. ”

"Is it because of amnesia?" Ingres remembers that the priest, Chamberlain Lang, seemed to have mentioned that Alex had lost his memory.

"Eavesdropping is not a polite act. Alex whispered, without delving into it and criticizing, and continued: "It's true that it's a loss of memory, I don't remember what I've experienced, but I tell me in my heart that I may have seen a ghost in the past. ”

Alexton paused: "Mr. Napat, have you ever seen a ghost?"

"Yes. ”

Ingres asserted without hesitation, which made Alex a little distracted, and muttered in a low voice: "It turns out that there are really ghosts in the world?"

Ingres thought that Alex would ask about the ghost, but he quickly collected his mind and didn't ask anything, but said, "Then Mr. Pat is not a ghost, and what is it, why can't anyone else see you?"

Angels: "It's normal for other people to see me, and I think you should ask: Why can you see me?"

Without any hindrance, Alex followed Angel's words and asked, "Why can I see you?"

"I don't know. Angel replied with a smile.

Alex was taken aback by this malicious answer, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.

Ingres didn't know, but he thought it might have something to do with Alex's lost memories, maybe he was once a transcendent. After all, the inspiration of the transcendent is very strong, and the blinding illusion he casts is actually very low-level, and the simple use of illusion energy does not involve the level of "law". Ordinary gifted people can detect that something is wrong, but it is not difficult for a wizard apprentice who enters the door to see himself.

Angel: "I'm curious, don't you feel scared when you see someone who no one else can't see?"

Alex: "If you're going to kill me, you have a lot of chances, and if you don't, why am I afraid?"

After Alex finished speaking, he didn't even pay attention to Angel, but sat down and took out a piece of paper to record some words.

"What is the cause of Knight Raven's death?" Ingres muttered softly, muttering to himself, "It turns out that the current clergy have even started to solve cases as part-time detectives?"

Alex continued to hold the pen, rustling on the paper.

However, the content is very brief, just listing the name of Riven Knight, and then on the other side of his name, Fasi's name is written, and the bottom is marked "Fasi's Birthday Present".

Alex pondered for a moment, then crossed out all the characters and wrote a place name: Holy City.

"Where is the Holy City?" Seeing that Alex was starting to focus on what he was doing, Angel planned to walk around the church and leave, but he didn't expect Alex to write a place name at the end.

What Angel was looking for was location information, so he asked directly.

Alex put down his pen and looked at Angel suspiciously, as if he was a little surprised that Angel didn't know about the Holy City.

Alex was silent for a long time, and instead of asking about Angle's origin, he asked, "...... Why are you following me?"

"I'd like to ask you for some information. "Angels doesn't hide it either.

"What's the message?"

"Location information. Ingres pointed to Alex's inscription on the page with the word "Holy City", "I want to know where this is, where is the Holy City, and what is the name of this continent?"

Angel's three consecutive questions made Alex's eyes move slightly: "Listen to your tone, you are not from this continent?"

"I don't know. Ingres shrugged: "I'm not waiting for you to answer? ”

Alex looked at Angel quietly, always feeling that this strange person was full of mysterious unknowns.

"This is the town of Gust, which is said to be southeast of the Holy City, an acropolis of the Court of Krua, and the closest city to Gusttown. ”

Ingres: "Supposedly, haven't you been?"

Alex shook his head: "At least for as long as I can remember, I haven't been. ”

Ingres's gaze unconsciously looked at the page, on which the word "Holy City" was clearly visible, and asked casually: "You have never been to the Holy City, so what do you mean by writing about this Holy City? Or do you think that the death of this Riven Knight is related to the Holy City?"

Alex shook his head: "There's no evidence of a connection, it's just ......"

Alex said this, and suddenly fell silent.

Angel is here to find geolocation information, not to solve the case, he doesn't care about this answer, and is about to continue to ask about the geographical location, but Alex continues the unfinished topic at this time.

"It's just that I think it's not just Riven Knight, but also Miss Camelot and Uncle Makey's family before...... This series of cases seems to have one thing in common. Alex secretly researched the causes of death of these people, and although he couldn't find the killer, he did find something strange. However, for some reason, he did not tell Father Bronlong, nor did he tell anyone else.

Now that Ingres is suddenly asked, Ingres is a stranger to Alex and a stranger to Gusttown.

Therefore, he thought for a moment, and slowly revealed his long-suppressed desire to speak.

"Knight Raven has a lady he has long liked, named Fassy. He once told me that he wanted to confess to Fassi on her birthday. Later, I heard Fasi say to her friend that if she could go to the Chapel for a sacred hymn on her birthday, she would have no regrets. ”

"The Chapel of Songs is in the Holy City. I'm sure that Knight Raven must have known the news, and it would be Fasi's birthday in a few days, so he would go to the Holy City alone, only to have his head found on the pier of the bridge to the Holy City. ”

Angel didn't want to hear the analysis of the case, but Alex himself was completely immersed in the case.

"Knight Revane is not a single case, there have been many cases before him, and all the dead are reduced to a single head. The sheriff said that murderers were unbiased homicides, but I didn't think it was right, and I found a commonality, that the cause of their death was all because they were going to step out of Gusttown. ”

"Miss Camelot is going to the Holy City to visit relatives she hasn't seen in years, and Uncle Mynie's family is moving to the Holy City...... It is highly likely that the Knight of Raven was going to the Holy City to buy tickets for Fassi's Chapel of Songs. ”

"It's all like this, all the dead are going to leave Gusttown, whether intentionally or not, as long as they step out of the confines of Gusttown, they will die. ”

"The whole town of Gust is like a birdcage from which you can't escape. ”

"As long as the bird wants to fly away, it will be broken by an unknown hand. ”

Angel was not interested in the Gusttown case, but as Alex recounted, he became interested.

If Alex's inference is true, all of the people who died actually died because they were leaving Gusttown.

So this series of cases is indeed not simple.

After all, it was impossible for everyone to tell everyone else their destination, but in the end, it was no surprise that everyone died. This is obviously not something that ordinary murderers can do, in particular, Alex analyzed one of the deceased, her death was most likely due to a quarrel with her husband that night, and she was about to leave Gusttown in a fit of rage;

Which "murderer" can grasp everyone's movements without omission, even if it is just an accidental quarrel and leave, he can catch and kill someone?

Therefore, after listening to it, Angel felt that it might not be an ordinary case, maybe it was the extraordinary.

"Everybody wants to leave Gusttown, and there's going to be an accident. So, why do you think it is?"

After releasing the desire to pour out in his heart, Alex regained his composure again: "I don't know either. ”

"Then you are studying these cases because of curiosity?"

Alex shook his head without hesitation: "I'm not curious. ”
