Chapter 530 Hidden

"Benson!"
Melissa couldn't help but take two steps forward. The usually mature and quiet girl showed extremely rare nervousness. She looked at her eldest brother's back, recalling what she had just heard, and temporarily lost the ability to speak.
No matter what she has experienced, she is always a young adult who has encountered this kind of thing for the first time.
The punisher looked at Benson who was silent, and then waved to Melissa:
"Miss Moretti, please come here. As one of the relevant parties, you must also come with us."
After seeing Melissa's age, he naturally changed the title.
Benson braced himself and stood between Melissa and the two police inspectors outside the door. At this time, he suddenly thought of something. Looking at the dark blue hair of the two police inspectors, Benson doubted, no, said firmly:
"We are believers of the goddess, but you two should be believers of the God of Thunder and Truth, right? Why don't you hand us over to the priests of the Church of the Night? Could it be because of what Klein... is involved in or is planning? Is it related to Thunder Church?”
The two punishers looked at each other, and Gale, who had a bad tone towards heretics, spoke first:
"This matter involves much more than you think. We are only responsible for taking you away, and we have no right to know more about the inside story."
"What on earth happened? I didn't get any information at all."
In an instant, many sensational events appeared in the mind of the eldest brother of the Moretti family, including but not limited to terrorist attacks. The murderer of the assassination of Emperor George Augustus III has not yet been caught. The Southern Continent’s attack on the Northern Continent. Revenge attacks, frequent murders and robberies in Backlund, and crimes committed by some well-known cult organizations in various places... Just when Benson's face became more and more ugly, his speaking style was softer and more organized. The punisher added:
"Mr. Benson, although you are the deputy minister of the Ministry of Finance, the confidentiality involved in this matter is too high. All investigations into Klein Moretti are conducted in secret. It is normal that you did not feel anything unusual. Yes. Specialized personnel will explain these matters to you later, and even we are not qualified to obtain further information."
Benson nodded thoughtfully, but his eyebrows wrinkled slightly:
"So, you have actually been investigating us for a long time?"
The observation of you indeed started a long time ago, at least a month ago, but the people responsible for monitoring you are another group of people. They often appear around you, including classmates, colleagues from other departments, and businessmen on the street. identity appears. So now we have two unfamiliar faces to take you away... The punisher smiled, and of course he would not tell Benson that the Ministry of Finance and the Technical University where Melissa studied have a lot of Thunder Church piety. Believers, they can all serve as the eyes and ears the church needs when necessary.
"Of course, it will take some time for us to make sure that you two have no contact with Klein Moretti."
The punishment agent blurred out the specific time and monitoring method.
Benson also knew that this reason was absolutely legitimate. He smiled bitterly and felt depressed:
"There has been no contact with us since his death."
This sentence sounds very strange now. How can a dead person contact his family after death? But this weird and terrifying thing really happened, and Klein was "resurrected" at some point. Then their brother left his grave, left them, and did something dangerous that would get his family arrested for him.
Benson couldn't help but start thinking about a question now - if resurrection is unreasonable, then is Klein really dead?
The punisher saw his uneasiness and loss and tried to comfort him with a few words:
"Mr. Benson, there are many unknown mysterious powers in our world."
"We also investigated Klein Moretti and found that he was an ordinary student in school, loved his major, and had never shown any talent for detectives. But after he arrived at Backlund, he became A great detective who is well-known in social circles, more than one gentleman and lady have expressed their affirmation of his character and skills, and most importantly, his belief in the God of Steam and Machinery.”
"you mean……"
Benson was a little confused: "But haven't you already confirmed that my brother left his grave?"
"Cline Moretti's temperament changed drastically and he showed a talent that he didn't have before. Mr. Benson, you should know that since ancient times, there has never been a shortage of stories about a dead person being blessed by the gods and coming back to life. Among them, Some of them are things that really happened.”
Before Benson could digest this information, the Punisher looked into his eyes and said meaningfully:
"But, what if the blessing is from an evil god?"
"...Mr. Benson, maybe your brother Klein Moretti was indeed an upright and brave man. He had fought against the thugs to the point of death to protect your city. Then, in his grave, He was inspired by a certain evil god, and the evil god tainted his soul and reawakened him... This will explain his drastic change in temperament and his discontinuation of dealings with you."
Benson's eyes widened, and the names of several well-known evil gods flashed through his mind.
——It is really difficult for him, a person who has never been exposed to extraordinary things in his life of more than 20 years, to suddenly realize that "gods" and "evil gods" have substantial interference in reality, and Klein The speculation that he might have been brainwashed by an evil god made him tremble all over, worrying that his younger brother had turned into one of those cruel and crazy cultists recorded in the holy scriptures as negative teaching materials.
"Of course, this is just my guess."
The Punisher promptly interrupted the topic: "I have never met Klein Moretti, and I don't know if he has been found. Perhaps, this is our purpose of finding and protecting you."
Benson nodded silently.
While talking, Melissa also put on her coat and walked out, and the punisher made a "please" gesture: "Come with us, Mr. Benson and Miss Melissa, the carriage is parked here. Downstairs in the apartment.”
"Do you know where else Klein has appeared?" Benson asked again before closing the door.
"I don't know. I only know so much information." The punisher replied truthfully, "Let's go, Mr. Benson."
Benson had no choice but to stop talking. He held Melissa's hand tightly and helped his sister gather her shawl. They followed two police inspectors down the stairs, a police officer following behind them. Afterwards, the two cuddled together and got into the carriage downstairs.
The wooden door was closed, and the dark carriage curtains fell, completely blocking out the light from the outside world.
…
"Did the people from Thunder Church make any move just now?"
In another neighborhood, there were people watching the carriage from a distance. When they saw the carriage heading towards the Holy Wind Cathedral, they smiled and breathed a sigh of relief:
"It turns out that the target was not us. I was shocked when I saw the two punishers suddenly acting. I thought those guys' little moves had been discovered."
A warm fireplace burns wood and spices, making the interior cozy and cozy.
After these words fell, another person sitting by the fireplace immediately stopped him from talking: "Don't always think about things related to the God of Thunder in your mind. Don't you really think that existence has completely discovered It's not our behavior, right? It's just because we gave away enough shares and money, and our attitude was low enough! Even if we are blessed by the 'Abyss', we should try to be careful."
The man standing by the window curled his lips, but stopped talking.
After a moment, he couldn't help but chuckle:
"I was just thinking...the guys in MI9 are really crazy. It seems that other nobles and the military have chosen to surrender or give up. Otherwise, why would they come to us to cooperate and want to gain access to the emperor's tomb? The method...according to the information received from God, the emperor should just be sleeping there, are they planning to send him some blood sacrifice?"
"They can't even get close to that mausoleum, and blood sacrifices are not qualified."
The man sitting by the fireplace was flipping through the newspaper and said nonchalantly:
"The 'Lawyer' path is just like the 'Storm', with extreme top-down control. Now that god's prestige is increasing day by day. Almost all the people have accepted that 'the Pope is the emperor' and 'this country belongs to the God of Thunder.'" ’ thinking, of course the only believers that the emperor can control are those in his way. It’s not surprising that these guys are getting more and more crazy because of the emperor’s existence.”
"These are not things you need to worry about now. You should focus on your promotion. The Sequence Six potion materials in the family inventory are almost insufficient. You have to collect materials through your own connections."
"I'm just curious."
"Cold-blooded" said: "Do you think they will succeed? I heard that the head of the family was a little interested in their conditions before, but later refused. It seemed because there were not enough benefits and dangers - he didn't want to become like these. Like a fanatic 'lawyer'."
"What does success have to do with us?"
The devil by the fireplace was already a little impatient. He put away the newspaper, a hint of displeasure flashed in his light purple eyes:
"Remember, your surname is North. Don't be like those reckless and arrogant Belials who think they have the ability to intervene in the battle of the great existence. Although we only follow our interests, before the 'abyss' abandons us , we have and can only have this one God.”
The "cold-blooded one" wanted to say something more, but finally shrugged and became quiet.
"I see."
…
"I'm going……"
Klein was just about to say something when suddenly, his spiritual intuition was touched, and a burst of starlight vaguely appeared in front of his eyes. In the starlight, he vaguely saw two familiar figures, one was his brother, One is his sister.
What emerged next was a photo and several relatively clear images.
Benson and Melissa?
Klein was stunned. He noticed the photo. There was him and Sherlock Moriarty in the photo... Dong Dong! Klein's heart suddenly shook violently, and he suddenly had some kind of enlightenment and realized what was about to happen.
"The God of Thunder told Benson and Melissa about my existence, the fact that I am still alive, and my identity!"
"Melissa is a person who almost became an extraordinary person. If those church members continue to educate them about extraordinary powers, they may think that my resurrection from the dead may be related to Mr. Azik, or they may think that I am some evil spirit. Occupied this body, it may even have been transformed by a hidden existence, becoming a divine vessel controlled by the other party..."
Klein's heart tightened. He thought that he had all the memories of "Cline Moretti", fused with the other person's memory and soul. Looking back on his previous life at home, which had some changes but not too much, he still couldn't let go. Make up your mind.
The two of them are definitely not the same person anymore, although Klein has always regarded them as a real family... But, who knows what Benson and Melissa will think?
"I……"
Klein's thoughts were suddenly disrupted. It was so chaotic that Bethel couldn't help but pay attention to his thoughts.
"I want to see them again... But if I see them, the God of Thunder will realize that they are really important to me, and will definitely take them as hostages... I will take them away now? Okay? Yes, but if I take action, the God of Thunder will immediately realize their importance, and it will be difficult for me to survive His targeted strikes with two ordinary people!"
"Although I move very fast, He can make countless mistakes, but I can only be hit once... Even if we don't talk about attacks, even those spirits and wandering in the spirit world are enough to make people who have not been strengthened by magic medicine Ordinary humans feel pain and go crazy!”
"What should I do to keep them and convince the God of Thunder that they have no value to me?"
Klein's mind was spinning. Just when Bethel was confused, he suddenly gritted his teeth, opened the door again, and set his destination at Calderon City.
"What's wrong with you?" Bethel finally couldn't help it.
"I...I'm thinking about something."
Klein looked at the door to the spirit world in front of him, feeling anguish like never before: "The God of Thunder seems to have told my family about my existence. If I am not wrong, He may do something to them next." Take action."
Bethel gathered some energy: "Your brother and sister? He actually took action now, which surprised me a little."
"If He wants to take action, nothing can be hidden from the White Tower, right? He should have known about it for a long time. It's just because I have never been back home, so He needs to confirm the status of Benson and Melissa in my heart. Let's see if they can be used as hostages and bargaining chips..."
Having said this, Klein suddenly took a deep breath and smiled.
"Well, I just thought about it. My brother and sister are ordinary people. Perhaps it is better for this brother or brother to be 'already dead' than for my brother to become a cultist or an evil god."
Bethel's heart moved slightly.

"Let's switch back, Mr. Bethel." Klein said sincerely, "You have helped me a lot. I have used your power to do a lot of things that I didn't dare to do. Now, I should go back to Klein." ·Moretti’s identity is revealed.”
"Back to this identity, what next?"
"Then..." Klein paused and said, "I hope that Klein Moretti is dead and that the person who has taken over this man's body is an evil god, one who will not make Benson and Melissa feel... A god who is sad and will not be shaken by two mortals."
"I'm going back to my body, and before that, I have one last thing to do."
"Say it."
"I want to help Antigonus defeat the God of War." Klein said, "Please bear witness for me. I want to help him because I want to obtain his sequence - extraordinary characteristics and uniqueness - I want to do my best to As the earth climbs higher during this period of time, I must use my truest divinity to dilute my current humanity, so that the God of Thunder cannot discover my sincerity.”
