Chapter 2198 'A ray of light'

Soul agreed with Shade's point of view and nodded without thinking:

"Yes, I can tell you who the murderer is. I can even sense the murderer's location now. This is a kind of..."

Shade finished this sentence for him:

"Instinct and the soul are so magical."

"Then let me describe to you the location of the murderer. Do you know the Gray Street in the city? That is"

Shade stopped him:

"Stop, you come with us. Like I said, it's getting late, and I don't want to waste my dinner time because I found the wrong person again."

As he spoke, he put his hand into his pocket. Soul wanted to express his dilemma, that is, he could not leave his body too far, but Shade had already found the crow skull among the toys he carried with him:

"I've learned a lot of skills recently, and this one allows you to temporarily store your soul. Don't resist now, don't resist the suction. It seems to be successful. My skills are still very good."

Carrying that soul with him, the detective holding the cat and the mysterious blue-eyed girl returned to the city in a carriage. Although Shade thought in his heart that this was another troublesome matter, in fact, according to the guidance of Mr. Gilot, the group of people

Five minutes after getting off the carriage, he had already found the underground casino in Xiacheng District where the murderer "worked".

It is not far from Herring Street and Spider Alley, and you can see the Taton River across three alleys to the northwest. The concept of weekends has appeared in this era but has not yet been fully popularized, but on Friday afternoons, even people in underground casinos

He is not as capable and dedicated as before.

But Shade didn't rush in with a gun and massacre an entire building for a trivial matter. He just activated the illusion, and walked through the casinos on the first and second floors with Miss Eleser, and entered the third floor.

Areas of the building that are not open to the public.

After knocking out several unrelated people, Shade saw his target. Although the bald thirty-year-old man didn't know what Shade was going to do, he still chose to escape immediately. He ran quickly

After leaving the room, Shade stood in front of the wall and counted down three numbers, then punched out——

With a bang, the fist passed through the thin wall and stopped just in front of the bald man's face. The latter looked at the fist in shock, his left eye looking to the right, his right eye looking to the left, and his eyes gradually became like a fighting cock.

eyes, and then collapsed to the ground.

"My strength is really good."

Miss Eleser on the side commented. Shade went to pull down the curtains in the room again. After tearing off a piece of cloth, he stuffed the cloth into the mouth of the bald man who had runny nose and tears due to fear. He removed the remaining cloth from the curtains.

Turning it into a toy and putting it away, he carried the man like a wild boar and left the casino.

After finding the carriage, they went to the city cemetery again, and the carriage driver turned a blind eye to the person in Shade's hand due to illusion. At the end of the trip, the guy whose name Shade didn't bother to ask was heavily thrown away.

When we stood in front of Mr. Gilot's tombstone, the dusk glow appeared on the horizon.

The cat, who had taken a full nap all afternoon, was now in a state of excitement - because it was almost time for dinner, and Shade's afternoon was not wasted. On the way back and forth, Miss Eleser told him a lot

Interesting stories and legends related to the ocean, the girl didn't mind at all that Shade was testing her identity in another way.

But whenever Shade wanted to delve into the real core of the topic, she would avoid Shade's topic with a pursed lips and a smile.

The soul that was one-way trapped in the crow's skull was released by Shade again. After the soul appeared, he looked gloomily at the person who killed him, and saw the person who should have died, the man whose mouth was still stuffed with cloth.

Liquid oozed out immediately.

Miss Elise stood behind Shade without leaving a trace, while little Gilot continued to look at his enemy with a cold expression:

"I was actually killed by such a coward."

"You don't seem to resent him at all?"

Shade asked with great interest, and Soul replied:

"He killed me, how could I not hate him? But I also know that they just wanted to take away my money and did not intend to kill me. My death was unexpected by no one. I resent him,

But I resent this fact even more. This way of dying makes my life so meaningless."

As the sun set, even his soul was dyed with a halo of yellow. He just looked at the person who killed him, but in the end he did not take action, but said to Shade:

"Sir, are you going to bring him to my father?"

"It depends on whether you are willing to follow me to see your father."

The soul that had always cooperated with Sha De's actions finally hesitated this time, and Sha De also sighed softly, standing under the big poplar tree and looking at the dusk sun that seemed to be shining under the treetops.

There are no dark clouds covering the sky outside the city, and the brilliant sunset shines on people and ghosts. And when the long shadows of people mix with the shadows of the many tombstones, it seems that although this place is quiet, it is not lethargic at all.

Feeling lonely.

The warm light made little Mia meow very comfortably. After seeing that the soul didn't speak for a long time, Xia De said:

"It seems that I guessed it right. Your soul has not left, not because you resent your own death. You stay here because you feel sorry for your father, right?"

The expression on Mr. Gilot's face became more complicated, and Miss Elisa suddenly asked behind Shade:

"How did you guess it in advance?"

Shade continued to look at the sun:

"Isn't it obvious? The tobacco merchant was willing to act impulsively like that after his son's death, so he must have loved his son very much while the gentleman before us was still alive.

I know that young people always ignore their parents' concern for them, but a boy whose mother died early and was raised by his father, really won't say sorry to his father in his heart before he dies?"

The soul trembled violently at this moment, and then a milky white luster emerged from the translucent spirit body. Little Gilot's soul seemed to have been drained of time, flickering at a frequency of once a second, but it stabilized

From now on, it will only solidify the soul.

He lowered his head and looked at the man on the ground who was so frightened that he almost fainted. It took him a long time before he said:

"I didn't have the face to see my father. I didn't listen to my father's words and indulged in Rhodes Casino. Now not only am I dead, but my father also died because of me. I can imagine how sad my father will be when he knows the news of my death. My father is

An honest and conscientious man raised me in a tobacco shop. I can't imagine how an honest man like him could sell the shop, buy such expensive Rhodes cards, and then purchase firearms and steam bombs. He is a

A very courageous person.”

The light of dusk shines on the face of a foreigner. He is an orphan both in his hometown and here. He does not know the meaning of these words. Everything he said is just to deal with the problem from a "human" perspective.

So he did not try to persuade little Gilot to see the soul in the underground tomb, but asked:

"I will only ask once. If you refuse, I will crush this crow skull and restore everything to its original state. I need to remind you that I don't have another bone in my body that can temporarily let your soul leave the grave."

He placed the crow skull on the tombstone, and the dusk sun also dyed it yellow:

"Are you really not going to see your father?"

The soul looked at the entrance to the underground tomb, then at the frightened man in front of its own grave, and finally at its own tombstone:

"thank you."

The soul reached out and picked up the crow skull. After a pause, he smiled and asked Shade. This was the first time the soul smiled:

"Sir, you see, I can now touch the physical body. Before I leave, do you want to play a game of Rhodes with me? Putting [Holy Sword·Dragon Slayer's Sword] into the deck can be regarded as letting me

Fulfill your last wish."

Shade's gaze turned from the sun to him:

"You are a scumbag who killed your father because of playing cards. I will not play cards with someone like you."

He looked at the young soul with sharp eyes. The smile on the latter's face disappeared. After bowing to Shade and Miss Elise, he walked along the grass illuminated by the setting sun towards the entrance of the underground tomb area.

and quickly disappeared from their sight.

The two did not talk immediately, but waited together under the setting sun. After a long time, Miss Eleser reminded:

"Feel it? They've all left."

"So how did I do?"

Shade asked, but the blue-eyed girl smiled and asked:

"You should evaluate yourself first."

"I did a good job, because you don't care about revenge at all. What you care about is whether the dead boy has the courage to express his apology to his father in person."

Her blue eyes seemed to be shining in the sunset. She suddenly reached out and tucked the strand of hair that was swaying in the evening wind behind her ears, then looked at Shade and asked:

"You know, sometimes your gentleness and intelligence are actually like some kind of crime."

"I don't really like people using 'gentle' to describe me."

The outsider took a deep breath:

"It's not very difficult to guess your intention. After all, you also said that I gave the black cat a ray of light, so that it did not turn into a terrible evil spirit in the end. So this time you appeared in front of me, it was probably

I hope I can give this boy and his father a ray of light so that they can continue on in their confusion."

"Then how will you judge him, O Master of Light?"

Miss Eleser asked again, pointing to the man on the ground who had completely passed out due to excessive panic.
