The Bloody Hand Society, a killer organization hidden in the shadows of the city.
More than one-third of the headless homicides in this city are related to this organization.
And the remaining two-thirds
It will also be more or less involved in this organization.
But even so, no one could catch any clues of this organization.
Neither the former Chief Patrick nor the current Sheriff John did it.
The members of this organization seem to be invisible, and they come and go without a trace every time.
Not to mention being the leader of this organization.
According to the most detailed records, there is no information about whether the other party is a man or a woman.
Simply put, there is no information about the other party at all.
For this, Helles is very proud.
Because, no one would have thought that the boss of a killer organization like the Bloody Hands would be a night watchman.
Every evening, he would push a cart equipped with kerosene and ladders, appear in the streets and alleys, inject kerosene into the street lamps, and light the wicks.
And the next morning, he would go to put out the wick again.
Everyone who saw him at night would not be suspicious.
More than half of the city's people know him as a night watchman.
After all, he's been doing it for twenty years.
And tonight is his last 'night watch'.
After tonight, he'll have enough gold for retirement.
He will find a place with beautiful scenery, and spend the rest of his life in abundance.
Thinking of the beautiful life that is coming soon, the pouring rain in front of me becomes even more lovely.
Helles is a person who likes rainy days very much,
Not only because rainy days affect people's sight and hearing, but also because rainy days can cover up the smell of blood, giving a killer like him enough time to make the scene more perfect.
Just like tonight!
No one would have thought that the entire St. Paul's school would be attacked.
It's like no one would have thought that some of the treasures of the Church of Dawn were hidden in St. Paul's School.
Even Helles, the killer leader who thought he was in charge of the city at night, got this information by accident from a member of the organization.
After a little investigation, this information was confirmed.
However, some things discovered during the investigation prevented the killer leader from acting rashly.
It's a more tactful method to deal with St. Paul's School.
The effect is very good!
Although a considerable part of the gold will be lost, the rest is enough for the killer leader.
At least, he didn't have to fight that terrifying old man who didn't look like a normal person at all... no, he didn't look like a normal person.
Thinking of the strength of that abnormal guy, the self-esteemed Heles couldn't help but tremble.
But when he thought that the other party had already left here in order to deliver part of the gold, Heles let out a sigh of relief.
That's right!
The other party will come back!
But when the other party came back, he had already disappeared with the gold. At that time, no matter how powerful the other party was, it was useless.
Thinking of the brilliance of his plan, the killer leader couldn't help showing a smile.
But at this moment, the sound of explosions in the distance and the sky illuminated by fire made the killer leader's heart skip a beat, and his inexplicable anxiety made him send out an action signal in advance.
The street lamp next to the killer leader was lit.
The raised wick and sufficient kerosene make this street lamp extraordinarily bright in rainy nights.
The killer leader standing on the ladder looked in the direction of St. Paul's School.
He was expecting a perfect sneak attack.
only…
Nothing happened.
St. Paul's School in the rainy night did not change anything.
The killer leader stared at the brightly lit chapel next to the school playground, hoping to see his subordinates, but there was no one.
The uneasiness in my heart became more and more intense.
At the same time, a faint smell of blood that ordinary people would subconsciously ignore penetrated into his nose.
Without hesitation, Heles quickly jumped off the ladder, turned around and rushed towards the pre-arranged escape route.
Helles, who has not been caught with any clues for so many years, is not only because of his concealed identity and extraordinary strength, but also because he has a cautiousness that ordinary people do not have.
No matter how great the odds are, Helles will think about what to do if he fails.
A carriage had already stopped at the end of the street.
It contains enough food, water and indispensable currency.
But before Helles got close to the carriage, the assassin leader stopped with an ugly expression.
The closer to the carriage, the stronger the smell of blood.
What this represents is naturally self-evident.
"who?"
"come out!"
Helles drank in a low voice, looking desperate.
But as soon as the words came out, the killer quickly retreated, not turning around and running, but keeping his whole body forward, and retreating with his toes pointing to the ground.
Despite the awkward posture, the speed is not slow.
In particular, the double guns in Helles' hands are even more deterrent.
Then…
A huge force appeared behind Heles.
The killer leader kept retreating, as if he had hit a speeding truck, flew straight for more than ten meters, fell in front of the carriage, and couldn't get up again.
Of course, Kieran, who was in control, didn't really kick the opponent to death.
From the mouth of the Wayne tribesman, Qin Ran clearly understood that Heles in front of him knew more inside information. The investigation of the Wien tribe did not participate in it.
Even the plan for tonight, the Wein tribe didn't know until dark.
According to the account of the Wayne tribesman, the other party was only one of the peripheral members in the Blood Hand Society at the beginning. It was a coincidence that he was given the news after hearing the news from a certain direct heir of Earl Wayne. Promoted to the core members of the organization.
Qin Ran was noncommittal about this.
He believed that the other party was promoted exceptionally, and also believed that the other party got the news from the mouth of a certain direct heir of Earl Wien.
None of this matters.
Even if it's a cover-up, it doesn't matter to Qin Ran.
However, Kieran didn't believe that the direct heir died unexpectedly not long after Earl Wien disappeared, and as a result, let an idiot inherit the earl's position.
Therefore, he planned to ask for more information from the mouth of Helles in front of him.
Qin Ran walked up to Heles and raised his hand to pick him up.
Helles, whose spine was kicked off, was weakly held by Kieran like a puppet that had come off its strings.
"Let me go!"
"I… "
boom!
Subtle gunshots interrupted Heles' words, and under Qin Ran's intentional control, the bullet almost passed Heles and hit the carriage beside him.
Seeing the bullet marks on the carriage, Helles, who had no power to resist, yelled in panic.
"Go!"
"Take me away!"
"Whatever you want to know, I will tell you! Whatever you want, I will give you!"
In the sound of prayers, Helles did not look like a cold killer leader at all, but an ordinary night watchman at all.
Not deduction, but reality.
It may have been just a disguise at first.
But after a long time, it becomes real.
Human habits are the same as human desires.
It's all so scary.
Facing Heles' prayer, Kieran turned a deaf ear to it and looked towards the direction of the gunshots.
