Since he still had to hire a rental carriage, Klein didn't linger on the gray fog for too long, and returned to reality after glancing at the "tower" briefly.

After returning to the company in the carriage with a group of Nighthawks, Klein took the opportunity to go to the bathroom several times in the afternoon and finally finished reading the notes.

"Mr. 'Tower' speculates that the Ramud family is related to the 'Reaper' of the Fourth Epoch, while the other Baron 'Kerg' is related to the royal family of Solomon, and was used by Loen's high-ranking officials to seek a high position in the 'Lawyer' route." High-level items... It wasn't until the emperor reached the top of the 'Lawyer' pathway that he was forced to give up...

"It turns out that Solomon's royal family started with 'lawyers', but the emperors of this dynasty are collectively referred to as 'black emperors'. Is this implying that 'lawyers' are good at playing with the rules? That's not right. There was a high probability that there were no 'lawyers' in that era. 'This profession... I don't know what its ancient name is.

"But isn't the Great Emperor an Extraordinary in the 'Generalist' path? Could it be that 'Generalist' and 'Lawyer' can be interchanged in high ranks? The Emperor switched to the 'Lawyer' path in the later stage? Hey, I hope the future Roselle diary will mention this.

"Well, although Mr. 'Ta' is just hypothesizing, he has to be said to be worthy of being a famous detective with such a great reputation! Not to mention Korg, Baron Ramud, or Mr. Ards may really have a relationship with ' Grim Reaper's about!

"I tried divination on the source of the haunting incident created by Mr. Azik in the town of Morse on Tuesday, and I saw an upside-down pyramid mausoleum extending underground. This is undoubtedly a symbol of the god of death. It is His The glory that only descendants can get."

Squatting on the toilet in the bathroom, Klein murmured silently to himself while thinking about the conclusion of Mr. "Tower"'s reasoning.

until there was a knock on the bathroom door.

"Klein, I'm off work!" At this moment, Roseanne's voice came from outside, "I know you are very sad about what happened to Old Neil, but don't be too sad..."

What's the meaning? Did she think I was secretly hiding in the bathroom crying? Klein was speechless for a while, so he packed up his clothes, opened the door and walked out, looked at Luo Shan who was showing a worried expression, and squeezed out a smile, "I'm fine... It's just that I ate badly yesterday..."

"Klein, I understand everything... Actually, I do too." Rosen said with a hoarse voice, as if both nostrils were blocked.

She was clearly still depressed.

...

After leaving Blackthorn Security Company,

Klein went home first and told his sister to remember to save dinner for him, and then took the trackless public carriage to Teacher Azik's home.

Jingle, jingle.

Azik, who was wearing a white shirt and black vest, opened the door amidst the crisp bell.

There is a golden watch chain at the button of his vest, hanging there obliquely, connected to the pocket watch.

Entering the hall, Klein put away his cane, took off his hat, and followed Azik all the way to his living room.

The living room is furnished with a fireplace, rocking chair, sofa, and coffee table, and Klein sat in the usual seat with familiarity.

Azik lit the fire on his own, picked up a cigar to warm up, and asked casually at the same time:

"Is the matter in Morse town settled?"

"I have to thank you." Klein said sincerely.

Taking advantage of the opportunity that the other party was concentrating on fiddling with cigars, he took the initiative to say:

"Mr. Ards, I asked a friend to find a piece of information about 'Baron Ramud', um, and that friend's speculation about some of the information."

"You're bothering me. I have to thank you for your kindness, and thank you for always remembering about me." Azik raised his head, looked at Klein for a while, and then nodded.

"It's my friend who is very concerned about this matter." Klein didn't take credit for it, and handed over the materials he had transcribed and related conjectures to Mr. Ards.

As for the original copy, it was naturally still above the gray fog. No matter how much he trusted Mr. Azik's character, he would not give him the things of his own Tarot Society members.

Mr. Ards didn't speak, he took the information solemnly, and then read it sentence by sentence with a serious expression.

The living room was so quiet that the atmosphere was almost frozen, and the time passed by.

About half an hour later, Mr. Ards put down the materials and closed his eyes, as if squeezing his memory.

After a few more seconds, he opened his eyes and said in an emotionless tone:

"Seeing this, I recalled some things... I remember that in the later stages of my life after Baron Ramud's life, I once investigated Tana's death...

"And some of the results of my investigation at that time can just be used as evidence for your friend's speculation."

Having said that, Azik lit the previous cigar again, pointed to the cigarette case on the coffee table and said:

"Would you like one?"

"No." Klein shook his head resolutely.

At the same time, he silently complained in his heart:

Mr. Azik, before you lost your memory, you must have left yourself a lot of wealth. Otherwise, how can a faculty member who is not even an associate professor enjoy cigars often?

Mr. Ards took a puff of his cigar and continued:

"Only one thing, the last message Tana left was not for the church, but for me... He never thought of betraying the kingdom he was loyal to... But the royal family of Loen obviously didn't believe it, thinking that the church had received something news, that’s why those unnecessary things were done!”

When Klein heard this, combined with Mr. "Tower"'s speculation, he felt extremely cold in his heart, and his favor towards William I, who was printed on the 10 gold coins, suddenly dropped a lot.

"Tana didn't know at the time that I could really see his message, so I didn't make things very clear... But there are still two main points that can support your friend's speculation.

"First, before the 'secret mission' mentioned in the information, that little fellow Kilgor had actually explored another ruin with a member of the Augustus family named Gru...

"The specific process is unknown, but since then, Tana accidentally discovered that Kilgor is no longer Kilgor... and the Kilgor family was given a '1' sealed item 'Concerto of Light and Shadow' after that mission .”

This is...Because the original Baron Kilgor found an item that was temporarily unavailable, he was replaced by Killer? After all, the royal family only needs to keep Kilgor's blood in their hands. Naturally, the baron who knows some truths cannot keep it, otherwise the risk of leaking secrets will increase.

As for the sealed item "Concerto of Light and Shadow", could it be formed from the extraordinary characteristics of the real "Baron Kilgor"?

Klein just thought of this when he heard Mr. Azik continue:

"Secondly, the location of Tana's last mission should be somewhere dangerous in the underworld, and according to his guess, the target should be a relic of 'Reaper'.

"Hehe, it was in such an environment that Tana was able to leave some 'messages' to me... Unfortunately, Augustus, who was monitoring him, misunderstood him.

"The child actually completed the last mission with the determination to return to the underworld."

After finishing speaking, Mr. Ards stood up, waited for Klein to digest his words, and said:

"By the way, I will be leaving Tingen soon."

"Why?" Klein asked in amazement.

Didn't you agree to find out who is behind my fate and stole your child's skull?

Ards took the cigar, sighed and explained:

"The target may have noticed my attention and pursuit. There has been no movement during this period of time, leaving me with no clues. Therefore, I plan to leave Tingen temporarily and go to Backlund. On the one hand, the information just now has given me a lot of clues." Less touching, maybe I should use this clue to find the traces left before I lost my memory, and on the other hand, let the target relax his vigilance."

That’s right, Mr. Azik’s most recent amnesia was near Backlund University... Unfortunately, you have no way to investigate houses with red chimneys instead of me... Klein nodded solemnly:

"I will pay close attention to this matter. Once the target takes action and is exposed, I will notify you immediately."

"Well, Mr. Ards, how should I inform you in time?"

In Klein's mind, if Azik is a descendant of the god of death, or has some connection with the god of death, then his power type should be close to the "corpse collector" sequence. "Things.

In other words, this can prove from the side whether Azik is related to the god of death and whether he belongs to his descendants.

Ards took a puff on his cigar, thought for a dozen seconds, and took off an accessory from his left cuff.

This is a delicate, old copper whistle, with many strange patterns on it that make it full of mysterious charm.

"This is an item that I carried with me when I woke up in Backlund. As long as you blow it, you can summon a messenger that belongs to me."

...

The Tussock River runs through Backlund, leaving many docks here.

Jane Grant, or now Jane Miranda, wearing a black hooded gown, walked slowly off the river liner.

She saw people coming and going on the pier, countless porters were sweating, and the scene was lively and noisy.

She was about to say something, but she heard a deep sigh from behind, expressing her heart:

"It's been a long time, Backlund."

Jane couldn't help but look back, it was a man with a blue seaweed head and wearing the robes of the Bishop of the Church of Storms.
