Chapter 140 The Accidental Death of the Maid
Consciousness returned to his body, and Klein saw his familiar bedroom. He first used meditation to relieve his discomfort from excessive spiritual consumption. After recovering, he began to think about the many doubts that had not been answered in the "Tarot Club" just now.
Could the series of coincidences I encountered since time travel be caused by Ince Zangwill using "0-08"?
Klein wasn't sure, because this was just his guess based on a few pieces of irrelevant information. It inevitably sounded a bit far-fetched, and there was no direct evidence... However, this is also in line with the characteristics of the audience path.
The key question is, is "0-08" the "0" level sealed item of the audience path of the Church of the Evernight Goddess mentioned in Roselle's diary?
If so, then why did Ince Zangwill come to Tingen to create a coincidence, and what purpose did he want to accomplish?
Klein suddenly had the idea of telling the captain all of his guesses, but he still had a lot of hesitation in his heart, because he couldn't explain why he knew so much, which could be called high-end knowledge...
As a new member who has just joined the Nighthawks, a Beyonder who has been a Sequence Nine for less than a month, how could he be clear about angels and level "0" sealed items...
Even Captain Dunn, it is impossible to know the real information of "0-08"... Perhaps, Mr. Azik will know something, after all, in the extraordinary world, mystery basically equals power.
There is also the red chimney that I saw during the divination. I also need to speed up the investigation. It is not too late to tell the captain when I come to a further conclusion... Usually, I can ask about Ince Zangwill on the sidelines. As a Nighthawk, it is very logical to pay attention to the archbishop who defected from the church.

59 Egram Street.
Louise was reading a book in the living room with a book in her hand. She looked up at the time and thought, this "Tarot Club" should be over.
Seeing the contents of the diary he provided, how would Klein feel?
Shocked, excited, or terrified...
Although Mister Fool has not yet experienced grief and fully grown up, Klein's own intelligence and sharpness are still not to be underestimated, enough to help him draw basic guesses and judgments... Maybe it is impossible to be sure, but at least the general direction It won't go wrong, maybe it can bring some changes to the predetermined ending...
Louise sighed suddenly. Her original idea was that she would not go to Tingen even if she was killed. The reason was naturally that she did not want to expose her specialness to the gods... However, after meeting with "Snake of Destiny" Will Onsey After talking with Ting, her mentality has changed. Since she can't control it, why not make good use of this special...
If you go to Tingen at this time, you are probably paying attention to Klein's "Goddess of the Night", whether she will focus on Louise... This is much more direct than the effect of her always going to the Church of the Night to donate money ...
But the problem is that Louise is too familiar with "0-08", and that pen has the characteristic of "the more you know it, the more it knows you"... Now it's okay to separate the two cities, just I'm afraid that once Louise arrives in Tingen, "0-08" will directly write her into the story, and at that time, she won't be able to participate if she wants to...
At least so far, Louise has no plans to go to Tingen. The current life of slow promotion is considered stable, and there is no need to find stimulation for herself... Through Audrey, it is enough to give Klein some hints intermittently. And safety, there is no need to risk yourself.
With a tacit understanding, Klein also thought about it... Zhou Yu hit Huang Gai and rushed in both directions.

The knock on the door suddenly sounded.
"Come in," Louise said.
After getting permission, the maid opened the door and walked into the living room:
"Miss, there are two policemen who want to see you."
"What, the police?" Louise blurted out, frowning slightly, and asked in surprise, "What are the police looking for me for?"
Sophia replied seriously, "Because Edita died."
"Who is Edita?"
Louise had a vague impression of the name, and she didn't want to think about it, so she asked directly.
Sophia explained in detail: "Adita was a maid employed by Katrin in the 'Metropolis Helping Household Servants Association'. She was young but worked hard, but she died suddenly yesterday at her home in the East District and was found by her parents. , and then called the police.”
"The police came here when they learned that Edita was working as a maid."
If he dies at home, does this count as a "work-related injury"... Louise thought inexplicably, then got up, went to the living room, and saw two policemen... Thank you Dean from Bayam for allowing Louise to recognize List the police ranks of these two people, one inspector and one ordinary police officer.
The man with the title of inspector is slightly fat, with a round face and a sincere smile. He introduced himself:
"Dear lady, hello, I am an inspector of the Backlund East District Police Station, and my name is Howard."
"Just call me Louise, sit down."
A faint smile appeared on Louise's face, and she said calmly: "I heard that the purpose of your visit is for the death of a maid?"
Howard replied respectfully, "Yes, a young woman named Edita died yesterday afternoon in her own home, working as a maid at your residence for less than two days. week."
"What was the cause of death?" Louise asked, taking the lead in the conversation.
"We haven't investigated it yet, so we can only confirm that it was a murder." Inspector Howard said, and then showed a terrified expression: "Although I have been a policeman for more than 20 years, a scene as tragic as this one Not very often."
"The murderer in this case must be a perverted killer. After killing the victim, he hacked the body to a bloody mess. It is very cruel. Even in the East District, this kind of situation is not common."
Finally, he tentatively asked: "I wonder what Miss Louise's request is for this case?"
Request, what can I ask for, solve the case, you are professional in this area, right... Louise was secretly surprised, she looked at the two policemen who were observing her, and the eyes of the other party made people feel uncomfortable Looking forward to it, she quickly read the subtext:
"In the East District, people die every day. This time, the death is more cruel. If the victim is not a maid, but an ordinary worker or a homeless person, the police will probably let it go..."
"This inspector cares about the attitude of himself who lives in Egram Street, not whether the case is solved..."
Louise consciously understood the twists and turns, and didn't know what to say for a while... Backlund, the capital of all capitals, is actually no different from Bayam as a colony.
"I have no request, I just hope that the case will be investigated as soon as possible." She said flatly.
"Understood, this is our duty. The existence of the police is to protect the lives and property of the people of Backlund."
Inspector Howard said awe-inspiringly, and then offered his farewell:
"I still have to investigate the case. If there is any progress, I will notify you as soon as possible."
