Lord of the Silver Crow

Chapter 279: Manor Dinner

North of Di Lude City.

Inside Greenton Manor.

In the manor of this wealthy businessman Glinton, the lights are brightly lit, and the fragrances of men and women and the mellow wine are accompanied by melodious melody, lingering in the manor buildings.

A banquet and a dance are being held here.

Just like Mr. Greenton did before, there will still be banquets and dances held here every once in a while, inviting big factory owners in Di Lud City, other wealthy people, and other people who can squeeze into the margins of upper society.

Only this time, Yago appeared as a participant.

But...

"assistant".

Of course, this is a nice statement.

It's easier to understand it as a follower.

The "tuition-free" condition is better than nothing.

Yago didn't care too much about these, because he had nothing to do, so he agreed.

and.....

banquet? prom?

Is it possible for "Guai Thief" to appear on the stage?

Yago has never had a very good idea about how to imitate and act as a thief.

The thief must "steal" it.

In the image of a strange thief, you must steal something special.

You can't do three hands at pedestrians on the road like ordinary thieves.

What gems, crowns and the like should be more in line with the image.

With this idea in mind, Yago agreed to this part-time job.

just......

It was not quite the same job he had anticipated at the beginning.

In order to make himself look more decent, Yago got the job——

Come with Renshade, talk to him as an assistant in front of the door guard, and leave at his orders.

At the end of the banquet, when Renshad left, Yago called the hired carriage to pick him up and showed his face in front of the guard and other guests.

"You can't give up things like face, vanity, no matter which class you are."

After complaining about what Renshade had done in his heart, Yago shook his head, turned and left the manor.

However, he didn't plan to actually leave, instead he was going to change his costume before mixing into the manor.

and......

Yago's upward perspective skipped a few passers-by and a coachman, slightly puzzled.

He has seen these people.

What seems to be the situation on the manor side?

Then I have to go in and take a look!

Yago's curiosity was aroused.

.......

but in the meanwhile.

Inside the manor, in the rotunda.

Claire and his wife were standing side by side, communicating without squinting:

"Is there anything unusual?"

"No."

After answering, Gaogen's index finger and ring finger holder raised the bottom of the cup, took a symbolic sip, and then said:

"There is nothing wrong with the wine."

Jia Lid was speechless, but her sight was still fixed in the position of the wealthy businessmen, lawyers, factory owners and other groups such as Glinton.

Even she can feel it's wrong.

Because Viscount Di Lude did not appear at all.

The viscount, who had a rather "neutral" attitude toward the church and other hidden organizations, did not attend the banquet, which originally represented a signal.

.......

Outside the manor, in a house far from Greenton Manor, a group of people are discussing intensively.

Thomas, the captain of the Extraordinary squad "Morning Shepherd" under the Church of Dawn, looked at the map on the table with a solemn expression.

"I have doubts."

"Recently, the Gray Pigeon has received various kinds of information. In Di Lude, various situations and vicious cases have appeared. These cases seem to be messy, large and small, but I found that some of them strange."

"The criminal murderer found is not consistent with what the witnesses saw."

"And there are quite a few."

"And after the **** ritual case of the Dawrs Chamber of Commerce on the Phoenix Road, although the guess is not clear, it is very likely that there will be a middle-sequence Extraordinary here."

"Furthermore, it may be the ‘screenwriter’ of Sequence 5."

"As evidence, the Temple in the Mist, the Knight in the Mist's action to return to Di Lud City."

"The return of the Knights in the Mist team and the appearance of the Brotherhood of Lanterns are by no means unrelated."

"It's just that there is no tangible and accurate evidence."

"Before, before leaving, before heading to the west forest to track Matthew Payne, the bishop reminded me that the condition of the spirit mist in Di Lud city is a little abnormal, so let me pay attention to it when the spirit wave comes."

"Combined with the case of the Dawles Chamber of Commerce, it seems that there are traces of a suspected large-scale ceremony."

"The suspicion was interrupted, but it did not end."

"That's just part of the ceremony, and it's likely to be part of the ceremony's initiation."

"That'magician', the message sent to us and to other churches on purpose, also shows one thing, this may have a large-scale impact."

Hearing this, a young man next to Thomas quickly raised his hand.

After the captain Thomas nodded, he asked: "Is the identity of the'magician' confirmed?"

"Not sure, but we found that Viscount Di Lude did something."

"The characters who can make him move are undoubtedly, at least the Extraordinary in the mid-sequence."

"Why did that ‘magician’ guide the assembly of several churches in Di Lud City and let us live?"

"I don't think it's as simple as letting us go and clean up the scene."

Thomas said solemnly:

"Although there is no solid evidence, there are too many'coincidences'."

"One coincidence is a coincidence, and two coincidences are worthy of serious doubt. Three, four, and five coincidences are accidental. How many do you think there are?"

When the players looked at each other, Thomas continued:

"Before, in the case of Greenton Manor, I told you that there were many doubts. The Greenton Manor case caused by the puppet master Dennis overlapped with this matter."

"Greenton Manor is a key surveillance zone."

As he said, he looked at everyone seriously:

"The death of a pregnant woman in the past few days, and the suspected cult blood sacrifices involved, have not yet found the source. It is very likely that they are related."

"Other churches have also gradually realized the situation. A large number of Extraordinary people have gathered. In this case, the other party may give up the action."

"But you can't just think about the good."

"If there are still problems when so many extraordinary people gather, then the scale..."

At this point, Thomas stopped.

However, the other people's faces were slightly pale, and they were obviously aware of the scale of the situation.

A situation that the Extraordinary forces in the entire Di Lude City cannot cope with...

The tense atmosphere gradually spread.

......

At this moment, Yago, who became Longfellow, rubbed his shoulders and walked out of the room in the corner of the manor.

At this time, his face was a little strange.

The number of Extraordinaries seems to be a bit...a lot?
