Lord of the Mysteries

Chapter 207 Demon Family

West End, Edward Street, 6.

Ikanser Bernard pressed his black top hat, pointed to the gate of the house behind the fountain pool, and said to Klein, Essinger and Kaslana:

"We checked in reverse the various channels through which the news and data were leaked, combined with the profile of the drawn profile, and, with the additional help of the magic mirror, initially locked down a suspect."

When you mentioned the magic mirror, you obviously paused, and you didn't know what price to pay to get the answer you wanted... Klein sensed the problem with Ikanser's tone, and somehow sympathized with him.

"The owner of this house?" Kaslana asked with almost certainty.

Essinger Stanton looked around, as if thinking:

"Choose to notify us directly because you have found additional evidence?"

"Yes, the portrait of the owner of this house can prove some things, heh, he never takes pictures." Ikanser replied frankly, "In addition, the surrounding residents have seen a big black dog nearby, many times. "

"This basically proves that the target is the 'Apostle of Desire'." At this point, Essinger suddenly laughed, "Sorry, we were too impatient, so you didn't even have a chance to introduce the suspect."

Ikanser walked around the fountain pool and walked towards the main entrance of the house, and said quickly:

"The owner of this house is Patrick Jason, the main shareholder of a small bank. According to his neighbors, he is a cheerful, enthusiastic, and optimistic middle-aged man. He has never been married, but he should have mistresses. .

"In his class, the number of servants he employs is seriously insufficient. Every time a dinner or dance is held, it is necessary to invite a batch of temporary waiters from the 'Metropolitan Helping Household Servants Association'. His explanation for this is that his Trouble sleeping, and too many servants disrupting the peace he needs."

"It can be seen that he has many secrets to hide, so he dare not hire too many servants." Essinger said half-jokingly.

Klein, who didn't hire a single servant, said with a little guilt:

"Maybe it's just that his financial situation isn't as good as everyone thinks it is."

"Yes, this is a factor that cannot be ruled out." Essinger stepped up the steps and came to the main entrance.

Ikanser glanced at Klein and said in a daze:

"You don't hire servants, you only let the landlord's maid do temporary cleaning twice a week, just to cover up the secret that you are a Extraordinary?"

Among all my secrets, this is the smallest one... Klein smiled wryly on purpose:

"Yes."

While speaking, Ikanser stretched out his hand and pushed open the main door, and an indescribable stench came out from inside.

"The smell of rot..." Essinger made an instant judgment.

Ikanser called over a member of the "Mechanical Heart" team:

"Carlson, what do you know?"

The Extraordinary named Carlson wore a pair of glasses with thick lenses, and said with a complicated expression on his face:

"We found a lot of bodies here.

"In the cement of the basement, in the thick walls, and in the overgrown weeds of the garden, there are corpses hidden one after another. The earliest may be traced back to more than ten years ago, and the latest is still alive a few days ago. the servants.

"Some of them have only bones left, and some have rotted a little. Deacon, this place is like a human slaughterhouse!"

While he was speaking, there were members of "Mechanical Heart" and carefully selected police officers carrying out corpses one after another.

Some of those corpses were completely dismembered, with tongues, fingers, stomach bags, eyes, etc. placed in a mess, while others were just a pile of bones.

"It seems that many disappearance cases of Backlund will be solved because of this." Essinger pinched his nose and sighed.

Klein saw a intestine that was almost dragged to the ground, he exhaled, and turned his head to inspect the situation in the house.

"Mechanical Heart" member Carlson murmured a few more words:

"Jason paid the servants a lot of salary and gave them a lot of holidays,

The servants of the surrounding residents are very envious...Jason's chef also promised his child that he will go home once this week and take him to the circus to watch a performance..."

"What a devil..." Kaslana was slightly moved.

Looking around, Klein restrained his emotions and asked solemnly:

"Why is the house furnished so poorly?

"As a banker, even if he owns a small bank, Jason should have expensive porcelain, excellent oil paintings, extravagant wall clocks, and various items made of fine silk. Why can't we see these on the spot? Hmm , The wood he uses for his furniture is still very good."

Carlson glanced at Deacon Ikanser, and nodded in agreement before saying:

"It can be clearly seen that Jason has been planning for this revenge for a long time. He has successively sold valuable and inconspicuous items in the room, and even agreed to the acquisition of his own property by Bavat Bank.

"After killing the servant, he accelerated the speed of cash withdrawal and sold oil paintings and other things. It seemed that he knew that he would be found, and he didn't take chances."

"Before the operation, all he had left was his house, furniture and an identity, and a large amount of cash, precious metals and jewelry were transferred to no one knew where he was."

After listening to Carlson's description, several adjectives popped up in Klein's mind:

Calm, sensible, crazy!

"A real demon." Essinger commented, and immediately reasoned, "He is very clear-headed and calm in doing things, but he also has a strong tendency towards madness and an adventurous spirit, which is in line with the characteristics of the previous two actions. "

"So, we have to beware of his adventures?" Klein keenly grasped the key points in Detective Stanton's words.

"Yes." Essinger nodded intently.

Next, several detectives searched the house and found a lot of evidence that could prove that Patrick Jason had problems. They also saw the portrait hanging in the living room.

On the top is a middle-aged man with high cheekbones, grayish blue eyes, ordinary facial features, and neatly combed back hair, without any special features.

At this moment, Ikanser came in and said to Klein and the others:

"We found some items in a secret room, confirming that Patrick Jason had tried to summon a more powerful demon, but failed for some reason, and those items also confirmed his identity. He is a member of the Belial demon family. member, his real name should be Jason Beria."

Beria family? Klein nodded unsurprised.

"In the ancient Quaternary, demon-worshiping human forces formed a loose alliance called 'Blood Worship Cult'. The internal divisions of this organization were very serious. The three major demons North, Andrerad, and Beria The family stands on top of each other, and their ancestors have all received gifts from the abyss. They worship an evil god called "the dark side of the universe", and believe that he is the master of the abyss, and that he is bound to erode and corrupt the entire real world and the entire vast universe. who." Essinger introduced a few words to the wild Extraordinary Klein and Kaslana.

Ikanser shook his head and added:

"If a deeply divided organization does not eventually split, integration and unification are inevitable. Various situations and rumors show that the Beria and Andrerad families have gradually weakened since at least a thousand years ago. Recently, For decades, it has become a vassal of the North family, well, the symbol of the Beria family is a combination of the five-pointed star and the abstract symbol of the horn."

In any case, Beria is still an extremely old family with profound accumulation. It is no wonder that Jason can raise an extra demon dog. Hey, this is one reason, and the other reason is that he opened a bank, even if Not much... In the Second Epoch, the ancient god corresponding to the "dark side of the universe" was the demon king Farbouti. Is there any connection between the two? Klein sighed and became curious.

After repeated searches, the three detectives and members of "Mechanical Heart" could only confirm that Patrick Jason was the "Apostle of Desire", but could not find the other party's current location.

Klein took away a handkerchief Jason had used in the demon summoning ceremony under the pretext of asking for help, planning to have a chance to divination above the gray mist - Jason handled those things he often came into contact with very well.

Not long after, Ikanser found them and said solemnly:

"The Nighthawks are coming with that sealed item, let's leave first."

"Okay." Essinger and Kaslana replied at the same time.

As for Klein, he had already raised his hands and feet in his heart to agree.

After leaving Jason's large villa-style house, Klein glanced back, his expression gradually becoming serious.

He said with a little doubt:

"I think there's a question wrong."

"What's the problem?" Kaslana asked hastily.

Klein thought about it and said: "Sold the bank ahead of time, sold the property, and sold a lot of valuables, which shows that Jason was ready to give up his current identity and life in advance. support such behavior."

"Maybe he has a very deep relationship with that devil dog? Sherlock, maybe you don't think so, but I have really seen people who treat their pets as family members." Kaslana said disapprovingly.

Essinger next to him solemnly said:

"No, Sherlock is quite right.

"Kaslana, do you know what the ancient name of Sequence 8 of the 'Devil' pathway is?"

Kaslana showed a thoughtful expression, she seemed to have heard it but couldn't remember it immediately.

At this moment, Klein answered her in a deep voice:

"Cold-blooded."

Cold-blooded... Kaslana chewed on this name, and suddenly understood why the two big detectives Moriarty and Stanton said that just now.

Seeing her reaction, Klein pointed in another direction and said:

“We split up and started with our own channels.”

After getting affirmative answers from Essinger and Kaslana, he left in a hurry, but he was not in a hurry to find Emlyn White in the south area of ​​the bridge.

He had to go to the Hisak Police Station first to get back the £50 bail.

He has been proven to have no problems, and both Isengard Stanton and the official Extraordinary have given corresponding testimony.
