Chapter 309 The Legend Reappears?

"The Red Queen?"

Standing in front of the study window, Nafar was deep in thought.

On the other hand, Yago, who left the manor and returned to the residence of Phoenix Road, also heaved a sigh of relief.

Although it is not possible to determine who the "murderer of the fog city" is, it is certain that it has something to do with the Diroud family and Ashes Manor.

However, Mr. "The Ripper" who appeared in the appearance of "Roya" still has a good taste in naming.

But here comes the problem again.

Is that Mr. "The Ripper" Viscount Nafar?

Shaking his head, Yago, who was not sure of the answer, brushed the dust off his windbreaker.

Speaking of which, Mr. "The Ripper" was quite a troublesome person. Before he left, he also said:

"By the way, when you send me a message, don't just call me 'The Ripper', just use 'Red Rose' instead."

Wouldn't it be good to just use "Red Rose" directly? Why use two titles?

However, speaking of it, two titles are not impossible.

After all, one directly refers to the identity of the dressage ball, and the other is an unrelated title.

Such as "Phantom Thief" and "Magician".

"Strange Thief" is also very nice, although it will be associated with the corresponding sequence as a code name, but it will not remind people of a costume party.

But I don't worry about it.

He has many identities.

"Knight" Longfellow, "Reaper" the gatekeeper, "Red Queen" Moxis, "Magician", and "Crow" Erdance.

And in a normal capacity—Diago.

This identity is also no one.

It's just that Erdance's "crow" has nothing to do with the masquerade party, but just a nickname for the corpse collector.

"If this continues, one day I will suffer from schizophrenia." Yago couldn't help muttering.

Shaking his head, he opened the message he got from Mister "The Ripper".

a letter.

Information about the officiant of the ceremony.

Looking at it, his face became more and more dignified.

Sure enough, it is related to the Lantern Brotherhood.

Extraordinary in the middle sequence. If I want to fight, I can't deal with it without using the gatekeeper mask. But the question is, even if I use the gatekeeper mask, can I beat the opponent.

Looking all the way down, Yago's line of sight paused:

".The ceremony that the other party wants to hold may be 'Legend Reappearance'."

"'Legend' will replace reality."

"The weaker the strength and the weaker the reputation, the easier it is to be replaced and replaced."

"To expand one's own influence and strengthen the 'legend' referring to one's own, the greater the spread of influence, the better."

Is it to increase influence?

Ms. "Tower" is asking him to build an organization and expand his influence.

And the method that Mr. "The Ripper" mentioned to deal with this "reappearance of the legend" is also to increase its influence.

Could it be that Ms. "Tower"'s "demand" to him at the beginning was not actually a request, but a means of defense?

After reading this paragraph and the following paragraph about the possible actions of the black hand behind the scenes, he read it several times, and after confirming that he wrote it down, he followed Mr. "Ripper"'s instructions and threw the letter paper and envelope into the Fireplace burns.

Increase influence. Increase influence.

Have!

Incidentally, rituals can also be performed.

At night, in a dilapidated apartment in the southern district of Diroud City.

Two men in tweed suits and newsboy caps were carving some symbols on the ground with quick movements.

In contrast, there are six or seven corpses.

The tenant and sub-tenant, who belonged to both families, have died.

The blood oozing from the corpse with frightened face was being used as ink by the two indifferent faces, using the dagger as a pen to paint on the ground.

After the engraving was completed, the symbol began to fade until it disappeared in place.

After doing this, one of them swept out some soot from the fireplace to cover up the area just painted.

At the same time, another person walked up to the bodies of the two dead women and tore the women's clothes coldly.

After tossing the torn corset aside, he exchanged glances with the other person in the dark, and was about to leave.

However, when he twisted the handle, in the dimly lit room, there was a little bit of moonlight, and there was also a breeze.

And sight!

Both of them turned their gazes to the window.

The window was opened.

On the edge of the window, a fog crow was standing quietly on the window sill, staring at the two of them.

The source of sight is this fog crow.

The two looked at each other, and one of them took out a dagger and shot it out. The sharp dagger pierced the air and flew straight towards the fog crow.

But at this moment, the fog crow suddenly opened its beak, and a shrill and hoarse crow sounded.

The shrill cry that shook the soul shook the bodies of the two of them, and the dagger that had just been released was also moved sideways by the fog crow to avoid it.

Although they were shaken by the sound and their consciousness was a little hazy, the two of them did not lose their ability to move.

When the sound sounded, they had already rushed to the side to avoid the expected successive attacks.

boom!

Sure enough, with a gunshot, a bullet tore through the air and passed where the person on the left of the two was just now.

The two people who had come to their senses also turned their heads to look back following the induction of their abilities.

Opposite the window, at the door of the room, a figure stood there quietly, hidden in the shadows.

The ability to see things in the dark allowed the two to see the "appearance" of that person clearly.

She was wearing a silver-gray tuxedo, with a silver-gray top hat on her head, and a pure white, non-porous mask on her face.

And the gunshot just now came from the revolver in the opponent's hand.

Without hesitation, the two took off the newsboy hats, flung them out vigorously, and flung them towards the man.

The two hats were like two frisbees, flying towards the man's neck and eyes with a precise trajectory and the blade at the tip of the hat.

The moment he pulled out his hat, one of them pulled out a razor from his back waist, and with a forward pounce, he rolled to the window sill, and the razor in his hand pierced the body of the mist crow.

A hat is an attack, but also a cover!

And the other person also took out a wooden handle revolver from his waist when the hat flew towards the opponent's eyes. When the right hand raised the revolver, the left hand took out the bullet nest and buckled it to the revolver.

When the revolver finished aiming, the cylinder was also buckled into the revolver.

boom! ! !

As the smell of gunpowder smoke began to permeate, the bullet shot out of the gun chamber, cut through the air, and shot at the opponent's mask.

However, the other party did not dodge, but tilted his head sideways, and at the same time stretched out his hand, turned over the hat he had just grabbed, blocked it in front of the mask, turned it around and buckled it down, and buckled it to the side, his companion who was about to attack Misty Crow on the head.

Suddenly, his companion's body shook, as if he had lost all strength, and his face hit the window sill directly.

Then fell to the ground.
