Chapter 119 Dwayne Dantès' New Business
Leonard stared intently at the portrait of Sherlock Moriarty on the table, and what he recalled in his mind was the appearance of the other person without glasses and beard.
Although there may be a certain gap between this and the real situation, and it is a product of guesswork and imagination, but Leonard felt that Sherlock Moriarty looked very familiar, very similar to a person he once knew.
"How is it possible? He was already dead! I buried him myself!" Leonard couldn't help but shook his head, and whispered with a smile.
Before he finished speaking, his expression suddenly froze, because the person in his memory was not simple, and he hid a big secret:
This person can miraculously get rid of the influence of "2-049", without the help of others!
This person took advantage of the special features of "2-049" to kill a Sequence 7 Extraordinary, and he was just a "Seer" who was not good at fighting!
This person summed up the "acting method" in a very short time, and was promoted to Sequence 8 at an extraordinary speed!
This person possessed a high-sequence Sun Domain spell, and cooperated with Captain Dunn Smith, who used holy ashes, to actually kill Megose, who was pregnant with the heir of the evil god!
This person's Sequence 8 extraordinary characteristic was taken away by Ince Zangwill, while Captain Dunn Smith's Sequence 7 extraordinary characteristic remained in place!
Perhaps, it wasn't that Ince Zangwill casually took away a copy of the Extraordinary characteristics that had just been precipitated, causing the scene to be missing, but that there was no corresponding thing formed at all! Leonard Mitchell snapped back to his senses, and looked at the portrait of Sherlock Moriarty again.
Ten seconds later, he spat out a name through his teeth:
"Klein Moretti..."
The more he looked at it, the more he felt that the mysterious detective Sherlock Moriarty was very much like his former teammate, the hero who saved Tingen, Klein Moretti!
This is when both sides have glasses and beards as two distinct differences!
Leonard's ten fingers of both hands had been clenched at some point, and each joint turned white. After a while, he let out an obvious gasp, and picked up Sherlock Moriarty's file again.
This time, with an unusually clear purpose, he directly flipped to the approximate time when the opponent first arrived in Backlund:
Early September!
And it wasn't long before Klein Moretti was buried!
Leonard Mitchell's green eyes became darker, and he instinctively continued to flip through the documents.
Then, he saw a name:
Lanrus!
This is one of the planners of the evil god's descending event in Tingen City, and is the main murderer who caused the deaths of Dunn Smith, Klein Moretti and other "Nighthawks".
And the second thing that Sherlock Moriarty was recorded in Backlund was that he went to the dock area to investigate the serial murder incident, and happened to come into contact with Lanwusi who was hiding his identity!
After that, the attempt of the "True Creator" to descend was destroyed, and Lanwusi died in the sewer, covered with tarot cards, which is similar to the style of the subsequent "Grand Thief" Black Emperor.
Still haven't forgotten the harm caused by this scammer... Leonard murmured silently, his expression softened a lot.
He quickly flipped through the materials again, sat on the chair, did not move for a long time, as if he had fallen asleep in the shadow brought by the light.
After several minutes, Leonard finally changed his posture. He leaned back on the back of the chair and said in a low voice:
"Old man, do you think the detective Sherlock Moriarty is similar to my teammate Klein Moretti in Tingen City?"
In his mind, the slightly old voice spoke hesitantly:
"The one who joined the 'Nighthawks' because of the Antigonus family notes?"
"Yes..." Leonard responded in a deep voice.
The parasite in his body said after two seconds:
"Something like it."
After getting the answer, Leonard became silent again. After a long time, he took out his gold pocket watch, snapped it open, and checked to confirm that it was only morning.
Leonard immediately closed the cover of the watch, stood up suddenly, and almost turned over the stack of documents on the table.
He hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold the document, and then left a note, saying that he had found a clue and planned to investigate, and he might not be able to return until very late.
Let me see, is someone pretending to be the hero of Tingen City, or you have been wearing a mask all the time, and you are a member of a secret organization who infiltrated the "Nighthawks". Your real purpose is no nobler than Ince Zangwill, and you are also fighting The idea of those items behind Chanis Gate... Leonard no longer had his usual casual expression, narrowed his eyes slightly, and quickly left the underground of St. Samuel's Church.

Hillston District, outside a very distinctive building.
Dwayne Dantès got out of the carriage and saw the house mainly in the style of the late Quaternary Epoch.
Huge stones are widely used in this house, which has four floors, and every window on each floor is like a door, corresponding to a small balcony.
Due to the years of polishing, it has a sandy yellow color, and the stone pillars and arches together support an elegant porch, which looks quite dignified.
This is where the "East Balam Veterans Club" is located.
Klein raised his cane, pointed at the building in front of him, and said with a smile:
"It's very historic."
Councilor Macht nodded in response:
"It's actually an antique building, but it has a history of more than a hundred years..."
While speaking, he led Dawn Dantès into the club, and said to the girl at the front desk:
"Dwayne Dantès, an informal member, I am the recommender."
After finishing speaking, he tilted his head and explained to the rich man:
"Not only have you never served in East Balam, but you haven't even participated in the battles that took place there, and you're not even a soldier, so you can't become a full member.
"However, even as an unofficial member, you can freely come and go here, use the various facilities of the club, enjoy delicious food and alcoholic beverages, and meet different friends."
"This is exactly what I expected." Klein smiled and nodded.
After the beautiful girl with Southern Continental descent completed the registration, Macht added:
"There is no entry fee, an annual fee of £60 per year."
As he spoke, he laughed and said:
"It's not expensive, especially for you. Here, you can get in touch with various weapons, there are enough shooting ranges for you to shoot, and you can also learn horsemanship..."
For a club of this level, 60 pounds is really not expensive. You must know that there are often generals here, and there are many well-known chefs... Klein didn't say much, took out his wallet, and counted 60 pounds to give. Front desk girl, got a badge with the forest, ocean and sword logo.
"This is a place full of honor, and I deeply admire your efforts in East Balam." Klein looked at Councilor Macht while wearing a badge with a number on the back, "If I want to do something for this place To contribute, who should I go to?"
Councilor Macht pointed to the front desk girl and said:
"Just give it to her.
"She'll record it and post it on the bulletin board over there."
Klein nodded lightly and said:
"OK."
He immediately turned his head and asked Richardson, the valet, to take out the prepared 500 pounds in cash.
After donating, Klein followed Congressman Macht through the ornately decorated hall, and came to a room that looked like a living room, while his personal servant Richardson was left in the lounge outside, where there were snacks, black tea and coffee.
In the small room, under the introduction of Macht, Klein met five military officers who were either retired or active. Besides a member of the House of Commons, the highest status was Calvin with the colonel on his epaulets. He is currently working in the Loen Ministry of Defense. The specific position is unknown.
And as far as Klein knows, if the military can have a colonel rank quasi-senior, there is a high probability that they will be Extraordinary, and they may belong to the middle rank!
Macht, Calvin, and the others quickly chatted. Klein didn't forcefully intervene, but listened to their exchange carefully, occasionally echoing a sentence or two.
In such a relaxed and leisurely atmosphere, Calvin suddenly turned his head, looked at Dwayne Dantès and said:
"I heard that you used to be active in West Balam?"
The colonel had a donkey's face, but it was not funny at all, and his eyes were rather deep.
Klein responded with a smile:
"Yes, it's even more chaotic than East Balam."
Calvin laughed and said:
"Of course, the Intis made too many mistakes there."
He paused and continued to ask:
"How is your relationship with the Intis people there?"
Klein didn't quite understand the other party's purpose, so he said bravely:
"It's okay, they're all greedy."
In fact, he didn't know any of them. He only heard a few names and corresponding deeds from Anderson.
Calvin nodded and asked another question:
"Are you familiar with the tribes there, the rebels there?"
"...Knowing the part." Klein responded vaguely.
He knew only one "army chief" who resisted Intis, and that was the former princess of Intis, "Queen of Mysteries" Bernadette.
Calvin smiled, picked up the red wine, and took a sip.
During this process, no one else, including Congressman Macht, spoke.
Putting down his wine glass, Calvin looked at Dawn Dantès again and said:
“It’s like this. We eliminate a lot of guns and artillery every year, and direct destruction or other processing is either too wasteful or too costly, which is not a good way.
"I don't know if you are interested in buying a batch and selling them to West Balam, to the area ruled by the Intis, to those tribes and rebels?
"Believe me, this is definitely a very profitable business. Of course, it is also very dangerous. If you are caught by the Intis in West Balam, we will not admit that you are serving us."
This... is this asking me to be an arms dealer? This is one of the most profitable businesses... Although I am not familiar with West Balam at all, and I don't have many contacts there, but I can sell it to the "Queen of Mysteries" and the rebel army in the Rorsted Islands... Klein's heart moved, Deliberately showing complex and conflicting emotions:
"I haven't done anything like it, but it's tempting enough."
Calvin laughed and said:
"There's no rush to make a decision, it's an important thing that deserves serious consideration.
"Just tell Macht your answer within this week."
Klein secretly heaved a sigh of relief, smiled and nodded:
"OK."

Tingen City, inside the Raphael Cemetery.
Although the afternoon sun is quite strong, many places here are still dark and cold.
Leonard was standing in front of a grave, quietly watching the stele.
PS: The ferry arrived at 6:00 in the morning, that is, 12:00 noon Beijing time, so let’s change it directly, sleepy.
