Chapter 120 Straight to the Point
The sky was sunny, and the corner of the cemetery was quiet and cool. Leonard Mitchell suddenly lifted the shovel that was stuck beside him.
The two piles of soil gradually increased, and the tomb was exposed little by little. People occasionally passed by around, but they didn't notice it. It seemed that what happened here was just a dream.
Finally, Leonard gave up the shovel, bent down, stretched out his hands, and grasped the edge of the coffin lid.
With a sudden force, he lifted the heavy wooden cover, and found that the thick and long iron nails had fallen off at some point, and there was nothing in the dark coffin.
Nothing at all!
Leonard maintained the half bow of his body, quietly watching this scene, without making any extra movements for a long time, as if he had turned into a stone statue.
…………
In his hazy dream, Klein saw a stone tablet with inscriptions written on it. It stood silently among many of its kind, and was stained crimson by the moonlight.
Such a scene was immediately shattered, and Klein suddenly woke up, confirming that he was still Dwayne Dantès, and he was still in the master bedroom at 160 Boklund Street.
The dream just now seemed to indicate something... As a "Seer", Klein always attaches great importance to every dream, and this time is no exception. He restrained himself, put aside his drowsiness, and tried to interpret it:
"That should be a tombstone...
"This represents a certain dead person, or something related to resurrection...
"The crimson moonlight symbolizes the goddess, and corresponds to concepts such as the Church of the Night and the Nighthawks... If you see the moon directly, it may involve the 'primordial moon', Lilith, the ancestor of vampires, and the 'Mother Tree of Desire'...
"The tombstone was stained the color of almost blood, which shows that it was not a good thing..."
While interpreting, Klein connected the contents together, trying to get effective and meaningful conclusions.
After serious thinking, he began to believe that the revelation given by the dream was related to him and the Church of Evernight in the past.
Thinking about what happened in the past few days, Klein gradually got an answer:
"Dwayne Dantès will definitely be put on the investigation list because he frequently goes to St. Samuel Church. If Leonard hasn't left Backlund, then this will definitely attract his attention. After all, he knows Dwayne Dantès well. Dantès is not simple, his origin is mysterious...
"As an angel of the 'Thief' pathway, the grandfather in Leonard has a high probability of discovering that the gray mist is closely related to the 'Seer' pathway, and knows that the corresponding Sequence 0 is called 'The Fool'...
"In this way, they will naturally be able to associate the honorific name of 'The Fool' with this, and believe that I am a member of the secret organization that worships 'The Fool', and extending from this line, they can kill The people of Lanwusi, who also used the Tarot card 'Grand Thief' Black Emperor, were involved...
"In addition to the Gehrman Sparrow clues I left on purpose, and the fact that Leonard was investigating Sherlock Moriarty before, he went through all these situations and found out the key suspects , is not impossible.
"The early Sherlock Moriarty's disguise was not very good. As long as Leonard investigates further, it is not difficult to find that the big detective is very similar to his former colleagues... So, he went to Tingen to dig a grave to confirm gone?"
After thinking about it, Klein brought a pillow over and groped to sit up, feeling that he had found the answer to the dream just now.
He began to carefully analyze what would happen next, considering whether to give up the identity of Dwayne Dantès:
"Leonard can't tell the other 'Nighthawks' the speculation and results, because the key part can't be explained, which will reveal his own secret...
"Based on my experience and what I know about him, he will use other ways to guide, which will be more complicated and troublesome, and take more time.
Before that, finding him and giving another warning should dispel his thoughts. After all, there was no real loss to the church this time, and no one died because of it.
"Well, I have paid attention to the timing of the identity of Dwayne Dantès. I specially forged the trajectory of activities in the southern continent in the past few months, and made a certain stagger with the date when Gehrman Sparrow's appearance frequency decreased. And this involves the Intis colony, so it is quite difficult to verify...
"In other words, Leonard can at most think that Gehrman Sparrow is equal to Sherlock Moriarty is equal to Klein Moretti. The secret organization of 'The Fool'...
"Hehe, in his eyes, Dwayne Dantès should be a mysterious strong man who can directly detect the existence of the grandfather in his body, a half-god, half-human, which is significantly different from other identities."
Klein quickly came up with a countermeasure, and turned to think about what happened at the "East Balam Veterans Club" in the afternoon:
"How could this kind of arms smuggling business find me directly?
"I just established a friendship with Congressman Macht, and I haven't experienced any tests yet, so I'm not so trustworthy...
"Perhaps this is a test in itself?
"The number of guns and artillery at the beginning should not be too large, nor should it involve too good products, and the goods must be paid first. If there is any problem with me, they will not have any losses. They only need to bear the influx of small batches of weapons. A little aftereffect of the area under the control of the home.
"Well... For them, I, a rich man with complicated experiences and a deep understanding of West Balam, is really a good candidate. First, I have money; second, I have courage; third, I have resources and connections. , you can sell the gun to the right person, and fourth, you have no background in the upper echelon of the kingdom, and you can be thrown as a scapegoat at any time.
"They should send someone to secretly supervise... As long as this 'business' can be successfully completed, I will be a close partner of the military... This will help investigate the truth of the Backlund smog incident...
"The problem now is that I don't have any real understanding of the rebel army and the various tribes in West Balam... Anderson doesn't know where he is, and I don't have his contact information...
"Uh, Danitz may have some knowledge of West Balam's situation... Ms. 'Hermit' is also the same, as is the Queen of Mysteries behind her... Collect information from these channels first..."
Having made up his mind, Klein's thoughts gradually receded, and drowsiness surged again, so he slid down a little bit and got into the bed.
…………
Underground of St. Samuel's Church, Leonard, who had returned from Tingen, caught up with the team's internal meeting.
Soest first reported the archbishop's conclusion and the gains of several local "Nighthawk" teams:
"His Excellency Saint Anthony, with the help of the Holy Church, confirmed that the infiltrator is Gehrman Sparrow, and concluded that this crazy criminal is still alive but not in this world.
"It's a really inconsistent statement, I don't understand what it means, and His Excellency the Archbishop didn't explain it.
"In short, our focus will completely shift to the investigation of Gehrman Sparrow.
"And according to the information provided by MI9, Gehrman Sparrow has a false identity, and he was originally from Backlund..."
After summarizing the clues, Soest asked casually:
"Do you have anything to add?"
Leonard opened his mouth, about to speak, but his eyes flickered twice before becoming silent again.
Soest glanced at him sideways, and said by name:
"Leonard, haven't you found any clues?"
Leonard was silent for a second, shrugged his shoulders and said:
"That lead has been ruled out."
Soest didn't ask any more questions, but turned to look at the other players.
After a round of supplementation and analysis, he began to arrange the tasks of his "Red Gloves" team.
After everything was properly assigned, Leonard Mitchell returned to the upper lounge with a cross-checked list of those who needed to be dreamed, and threw his body on the bed.
After sitting silently for a while, Leonard raised his hand to straighten his hair, ready to take action.
However, the first dream he came to didn't belong to any of the names on that list.
His target is Dwayne Dantès!
——After much deliberation, he decided to have a face-to-face meeting with this member of the secret organization, the undead fourth era monster, to see if he could get the corresponding information.
This may seem reckless, but it's a good idea when both parties know each other has problems and secrets.
…………
At No. 160 Boklund Street, Klein's bewildered mind suddenly came to his senses, knowing that someone had entered his dream.
He pondered for a while, sat on the easy chair, looked sideways at the balcony, and saw a man with dark hair and green eyes in a white shirt and black vest leaping in lightly. It was Leonard Mitchell.
I haven't looked for you yet, but you came to the door by yourself... The other "Nighthawks" knocked on the door very politely, and you were the only one who turned over the balcony... Klein slandered while watching the poet classmates approaching.
At this moment, in Leonard's eyes, the Dwayne Dantès in his dream was still dressed in formal attire, with gray hair, sharp edges and corners, and extremely charming.
At this moment, the corner of the rich man's mouth was slightly raised, and he was smiling. He did not hide at all that he was awake and not affected by the "Nightmare" ability.
"Didn't Pallez Zarathustra tell you what politeness is?" Klein said in a tone that fit the image in the other party's mind.
Pallez Zarathustra... He was warning me again... Leonard froze for a moment, remembering the name.
He quickly restrained his thoughts, bowed in a non-standard posture and said:
"Excuse me for interrupting, you are on our investigation list.
"You guys did this sneaking incident? Is this the purpose of your coming to Backlund?"
"No." Klein in the image of Dwayne Dantès picked up the red wine next to him, took a sip and said, "It's not us, it's him alone."
He put on a posture that he was not afraid of you knowing.
"Gehrman Sparrow?" Leonard asked in a low voice.
Klein glanced at the other party with his deep blue eyes hiding some vicissitudes of life:
"Isn't that obvious?"
"What exactly is he trying to do? He didn't take anything away." Leonard asked along the way.
Klein raised his hand and touched his gray temples, he said with a smile:
"what you think?"
