Chapter 779: Threesome at Midnight
"Ready Player One in Time and Space ()"
The next day, Luo Jie, as the eldest son living abroad, officially settled in the Wagner Manor with six people from the "Oberg Killer Society" disguised as a maid group.
Subsequently, he ordered people to destroy the dark prison where countless innocent souls were found, and dismissed all the servants and guards who knew about the existence of this dark prison under various excuses, and recruited a new group of innocent servants and guards.
Those who knew about the existence of the black cell were basically the confidants of the original male owner, Baron Wagner. This approach was equivalent to a disguised denial of the rights of the Wagner family in the manor.
Baron Wagner, who had been betrayed and separated from his relatives, was completely unable to stop all this at this moment. He could only watch as Luo Jiejiu took over the wealth that once belonged to him, and the other party even inherited the connections that he had spent a lot of money to establish.
As the Wagner family's property was completely controlled by Luo Jie, the "Arya" family used to cover up others also completed their mission as tool people.
Later, on a dark and stormy night, the devil's family were neatly thrown into a river pond and fed to fish. They lied to the public that their horses were frightened and fell into the river and drowned while they were out for an outing.
Although if you look closely at this explanation, you will find many strange things, but in the imperial capital, which noble family does not have some shady and dirty things? If it were true, if one of the two nobles was randomly chosen to be hanged, there would be no unjust, false or wrongful conviction.
In this way, after the formal funeral, Luo Jie became the real owner of the Wagner Manor, and incidentally inherited a baronetcy.
The system also popped up a task progress prompt at this moment.
[Your reputation increases. By maintaining this reputation, you can obtain the title "Imperial Baron" after the mission is completed. 】
Luo Jie nodded.
Sure enough, because the resurrection of the "Oberg Assassin's Guild" is still unknown, his greatest fame at present is the baronage he picked up for free.
While Luo Jie was receiving the Wagner family's inheritance, several major events happened in the imperial capital.
The first one is that the captain of the imperial police force and the big oil businessman "Gamal", known as the "Oka of Ghosts", were mysteriously assassinated in Feng Yue Pavilion, the largest flower street, and there were signs of a night attack next to their bodies.
The second incident is that a certain lieutenant in the military spoke out and accused the minister of auxiliary affairs of causing trouble in the imperial court. He was executed by the minister of auxiliary affairs for treason. His wife and daughter were also humiliated and sold into Changguan.
The third case was that a distant relative of the auxiliary minister and his confidant was assassinated in front of his home. The scene also left the mark of a night attack.
But what really caught Luo Jie's attention were several murder cases among the endless public security cases in the imperial capital.
All the victims were decapitated with a single knife and had almost no other external injuries.
"Maillard, Taeko, come with me tonight."
"Taeko" is the most junior official member of the association. She did not expect to be called upon for this operation, so she was a little hesitant when taking the order.
"Lord Night Dire, my experience is not enough. If the goal of this mission is very important, Cassandora or Gilbert should be more suitable than me."
"No, the goal this time is very special. Strength is secondary. The most important thing is the will. Apart from Mailad, you are the only one with the strongest will in the entire association."
"Thank you, Lord Night Dire, for the compliment."
Hearing what Luo Jie said, the worry in "Taeko's" eyes disappeared, and her expression became more determined.
midnight.
The big clock in the central square struck twelve melodious tones, and the entire empire fell silent.
Only patrolling guards carrying lanterns walked through the streets from time to time.
Both the number of formations and the frequency of patrols are much stronger than before. Obviously, the frequent "night raids" and assassinations have put great pressure on the security department of the imperial capital.
"Hey, do you feel like someone is watching us? Could it be the legendary killer organizing a night attack?"
"Don't think too much and patrol carefully! Those killers only kill nobles and officials. Why did they kill you, a miserable little soldier? Or did you do something shameful?"
"The captain is right. Instead of worrying about the killer, you should worry about the decapitating murderer. Several people in our guard have died at his hands."
Several patrolling imperial guards gradually walked away, and three figures appeared one after another on the roof of a tavern.
It was Luo Jie, "Maillard" and "Taeko".
"Lord Night Dire, is our target this time the killer organization called Night Raid?"
"Night Raid" was founded after the collapse of the "Oberg Assassin's Association", so "Mailard" and "Taeko" didn't know what kind of organization it was, let alone that there were old acquaintances of the two of them in it—— "Red Eyes".
Luo Jie shook his head and corrected: "No, our target this time is the beheading murderer."
"Maillard" and "Taeko" stopped talking. They are both the best killers. They only need to know who to kill. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net do not need to know why they kill.
Although the two stopped asking, Luo Jie had to say that he would not make the stupid mistake of "night attack" in the original work.
They knew clearly that "Decapitation Zanke" was a Teigu user, but they didn't inform "Red Eyes" and "Tazmi" who were performing the mission of their Teigu abilities in advance, even if it was just to train the two of them. Aren't you afraid that "Zanke the Beheader" will suddenly become a super god and bring about an early ending?
"The target this time is called "Decapitator Zanke". This man was originally an executioner in the largest prison in the empire. After being beheaded countless times every day and unable to distinguish right from wrong, his original belief has collapsed and turned into a complete and utter murderer. A madman who only knows how to kill. "
"Since the number of death row inmates in the prison could no longer satisfy his desire to behead, he killed the warden, snatched the prisoner's imperial weapon [Five-sighted Omnipotent Observer], and escaped to the Imperial Capital with the pursuit of the punitive team, becoming A decapitating maniac who roams the streets at night looking for prey.”
"Teigu? Are they the 48 powerful weapons left behind by the First Emperor thousands of years ago?" "Mailad" and the two men obviously also knew about the existence of the Teigu.
"Yes, in addition to the "Teigu", there are also weakened versions of the "Teigu" that are imitated. The destruction of the Oberg Society was largely due to the failure of not understanding these two weapons. You should be aware of this, right, Taeko? "
Listening to Luo Jie asking himself, "Taeko" seemed to be caught up in some memories, and said with a sad expression: "If I could have discovered the special features of the weapons used by the empire's assassination troops, maybe Granny Barbara would not have died. ”
"As a killer, you must learn to look at death calmly, whether it is your partner or yourself." "Maillard" reached out and gently stroked Taeko's long hair, and asked at the same time: "Lord Nightmare, do you understand this [Five Visions Omnipotence· Observer]?”
