The owner of the boat looked at Richard Weston in confusion, and then followed his gaze towards the bow of the boat.

I don't know when a stranger appeared on the bow of the ship, and the sailors who were cleaning the deck and sorting out the cargo didn't even notice that there was an outsider beside them.

The owner of the boat was shocked. His life of traveling around the world had made him well-informed, and he had also developed a vision and judgment that could help him seek good fortune and avoid evil. But now this stranger suddenly appeared on his boat.

His feeling is that it is extremely dangerous, and it is a danger that must not be provoked.

At this moment, the ship owner made an instant decision and said to Richard Weston with a smile: "Sir, it seems that you have private matters to deal with, so I won't disturb you."

After saying that, he decisively greeted his men, turned around and walked off his ship.

The behavior of the ship owner was somewhat beyond Richard Weston's expectation. In his view, the ship owner was asking for something from him. Now that he was in trouble, the ship owner should stand by his side and help him no matter what.

, to get closer to each other through performance, so as to get his help to meet his father, who is the Minister of Finance.

But he never expected that the owner of the boat didn't even make any move to help, but just threw him away and left without any hesitation. This made him prepare to use the owner of the boat to block the intruder in order to give him time to escape.

It also failed.

Although things have changed, Richard Weston still looked calm and said very relaxedly: "I didn't expect people from the Holy Blood Society to come here so quickly. It seems that the strength of the Holy Blood Society is somewhat

Beyond my expectations.”

"I am not from the Holy Blood Society." Leo, who deliberately gave the child a hint and followed him all the way, slowly walked towards Richard Weston and said, "The thing you stole is exactly what I want to buy."

Richard Weston smiled bitterly. Before he took action, he had already thought about what forces would find him, and had prepared countermeasures in advance. He was confident that whether the person who found him was the Holy Blood Society or the Church of Elegant Lady

Other sects, or the one from the Governor's Mansion, he can handle it and leave here safely.

But just like the decisive decision made by the boat owner just now, the stranger who appeared in front of him was also an unexpected variable, which made all his preparations ineffective. This made him who likes to make decisions and then act a little uncomfortable.

"I'm sorry, I didn't think of that thing as you wanted." Richard Weston tried his best to maintain the confident posture he should have, and said to Leo, who came up to him: "I am willing to make a decision on this matter.

Compensation, I believe the amount of compensation should satisfy you. The other things are not with me now, but I can tell you where they are."

"No need! I know where the things are." Leo gave an answer that surprised Richard Weston.

At the moment when Richard Weston was stunned, Leo suddenly took action and hit Richard Weston on the neck at a speed that was so fast that it was invisible.

Today is definitely an unexpected day for Richard Weston. Just like the decisive decision of the ship owner just now, Leo's sudden action was also beyond Richard Weston's expectation, because everyone he met before

, even if it is the kind of life-and-death enemy, he will definitely say a few words before taking action, and there will be some signs when he takes action.

But Leo's attack was very sudden. Richard Weston was hit so suddenly that he fainted, and he still didn't understand what happened.

Richard Weston's fainting immediately triggered the black cat's attack mechanism. The black cat instantly expanded to the size of a black panther, flew towards Leo, and scratched Leo's neck with its sharp claws.

.

Leo, who was well prepared, made the gesture of Alder's Seal with his hand when the black cat flew towards him, and instantly displayed the power of the seal, forming an invisible shock wave in front of him, knocking the black cat in the air away.

The cat flew straight out and landed in the water outside the boat.

After taking care of the black cat, Leo immediately picked up Richard Weston from the ground, held him against his body, turned around and got off the ship, heading towards the city.

Although the appearance of carrying a person is a bit too eye-catching, the security police will definitely come to investigate later, but because of the person, the shadow jump cannot be used, leaving Leo with no other better way, Richard

Weston is sent to the Order of the Holy Blood.

What happened after that was exactly as he expected. Before leaving the dock, four or five French Empire military police responsible for security in the dock area came forward to investigate. However, these people were all under the influence of Yakxi's seal, thinking that Lei

What Ou was carrying was just an ordinary piece of cargo, and he quickly let Leo leave.

After entering the city, Leo directly boarded a cross-region steam rail car heading to the city controlled by the United Kingdom, placing Richard Weston on the empty seat beside him.

Compared with the steam railcars going to the Embarcadero Terminal which are always full of people, the steam railcars leaving seem empty. For example, the two railcars now have only seven people in total including the driver and them.

The four passengers are now sitting on the second floor, using the height of the rail car to watch the night view of Vinaya.

The driver was also nervously staring outside the boat, controlling the speed of the steam locomotive in a small way, with one hand always on the brake pad. From his nervous expression, it was easy to see that he was still a novice.

Just after the rail car drove out for a distance, the black cat that Leo had knocked into the water changed back to its original cat shape, jumped onto the car dripping wet, and jumped onto the luggage rack, about two meters away from Leo.

He stopped at a certain place and looked down at Leo, seemingly waiting for an opportunity to rescue his owner.

Leo looked at the black cat with great interest. He found that this black cat was a very strange life form. The body was obviously a combination of parts, but its eyes had the spirituality that only intelligent life can have, just like where the Earth Federation is.

It is the same as the mechanical life forms in the universe, the only difference is that the black cat possesses psychic powers that the mechanical life forms cannot possess.

At this time, Leo suddenly thought of something. He concentrated his spiritual energy on his forehead and activated the mark of the elegant lady on his forehead.

Although the mark is hidden, the special spiritual energy fluctuations possessed by the mark are radiated outwards under the stimulation of Leo's spiritual energy.

The black cat obviously felt the mark of the elegant lady. It was stunned, tilted its head, and looked at Leo in surprise, as if it was looking at something rare. Then, it made a move that was both surprising and surprising.

In a surprising move, he jumped down from the luggage rack, walked carefully to Leo's side, jumped onto the chair, and then like a house cat, climbed onto Leo's lap and curled up on it.

On Leo's lap, he let out a lazy cry and lay motionless.

"Interesting little guy!" After seeing the docility of the black cat because of the mark of the elegant lady, Leo smiled, and an image of a kitten emerged in his mind. This should be the childhood of his predecessor.

As a pet, he did not suppress his affection and reached out to touch the black cat.

Although the speed of the rail car is not very fast, half an hour is enough for the rail car to travel to urban areas under the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom.

Leo estimated the position and felt it was about right, so he picked up the black cat on his lap and placed it on the ground. Then he picked up the unconscious Richard Weston and jumped off the slowly moving rail car.

, before anyone noticed, he walked into an alley and quickly walked towards the entrance of the underground city he knew.

There were no accidents along the way. This may be because Fernando did not expect Leo to find someone so quickly and did not have time to deploy manpower around the underground city to intercept Leo, which made Leo arrive at the underground city smoothly.

Arriving outside the Holy Blood Society's headquarters.

"I am Leo Dodd, and I have found the person who robbed the antique store." Leo followed Brown's method and used the microphone outside the door to inform the people inside the Holy Blood Society.

After he finished speaking into the microphone, not long after, he saw the door of the Holy Blood Society slowly opening. Brown led these people out of it, and looked at Leo and the Richard Vesper he was carrying with some surprise.

ston.

"Is he the robber?" Because of the location, Brown did not see the appearance of Charlie Weston, but asked with some suspicion.

Leo ignored Brown's suspicion and asked in a deep voice: "Fernando Delo should be here, right?"

Brown did not feel angry about Leo's disregard. Instead, after Leo asked, he nodded honestly and said: "Mr. Deloitte just arrived here, because this matter involves the Church of Elegance Lady, so as Elegance

He, a lady believer, took the initiative to assist us in investigating this matter."

"Take me to see him." Leo ordered.

Brown hesitated for a moment, but in the end he did not object. After giving instructions to the men beside him, he led Leo towards the Holy Blood Society.

The two quickly arrived at the previous conference room, then turned from a door on the wall of the conference room into another passage. After walking for a while, they entered a small underground attic.

At this time, many people had gathered in the attic, including senior members of the Holy Blood Society, Fernando Delo, and Doris, the chief priest of the Elegant Lady Church, etc. The atmosphere here did not seem to be very good, as if they had just had a quarrel with the Holy Blood Society.

The person looked very angry, while Doris and others looked a little depressed. Only Fernando remained calm as usual.

When everyone saw Brown leading Leo in, they were all stunned for a moment, while Fernando's eyes fell more on the man who was being resisted by Leo, with a hint of panic and surprise in his eyes.

"This is the thief you are looking for who stole the skull bowl." Leo directly threw Richard Weston on his body on the sofa in the room, then turned to Fernando and said: "I won the bet.

, bring the bet!"

"Wait, is this person that..." After Fernando recognized that the person carried by Leo was Richard Weston, he knew that he had lost, but he was unwilling to admit defeat like this.

He was already out of the game before the bet had officially started. This situation made him feel extremely aggrieved, so he instinctively wanted to quibble.

Leo raised his hand to stop Fernando from talking, and said expressionlessly: "You know very well whether he is the thief, and you also know very well whether I won. If you are not willing to fulfill the bet, I will not force you. But.

, I will naturally go get it if it is mine. I don’t know what drastic measures I will use at that time. However, I don’t think you are willing to see that happen, what do you think?”

Fernando could hear Leo's extremely obvious threats. According to his character, he would never want to be threatened, but recalling all the information about Leo, plus Leo's previous methods of entering and exiting the Governor's Palace silently

, making him feel that it was a very bad thing to offend such a dangerous person.

"You win. Just wait a moment and I'll go get the bet." Fernando didn't struggle anymore and nodded to admit that Leo had won the bet. Then he was about to leave, find a place to enter the elegant lady's dressing room, and take out the bet.

Those bets.

Although Leo knew that the ladies' dressing room was right next to Fernando, he didn't stop him and just stood there quietly.

Everyone else around them looked confused. They didn't understand what happened between Leo and Fernando. They just roughly understood that the two made a bet, and the key to victory or defeat was to see who could find the antique that had committed this crime first.

Thief in store robbery.

At this time, someone found out that the person Leo was carrying turned out to be the son of the Minister of Finance of the French Empire. They couldn't help but feel doubtful. Some people wanted to ask Leo why, but Leo dissuaded him with a look that said no strangers should enter.

Already.

On the other side, Doris, the head priest of the Elegant Lady Church, is not interested in who the thief is at all. All she needs is to free the Elegant Lady Church from these troubles, and at this moment, her eyes are not on Richard Veve.

Instead of it being placed on Stone, it was placed on the black cat following Leo.

With Doris's eyesight, she can naturally see the relationship between this black cat and the elegant lady. To a certain extent, this black cat can be said to be a sacred object of the elegant lady's church, and the temptation of the sacred object made her forget

Leo threatened, came up, squatted in front of the black cat, and used divine magic to draw a series of special patterns in the air according to the church's method.

However, facing Doris's actions, the black cat just looked at it coldly, then opened his mouth and yawned, walked up to Richard Weston, lay on his chest, and shook in boredom.

With tail.

"Is he also a believer in ladies?" Doris judged the identity of Richard Weston from the black cat's behavior, and a look of surprise immediately appeared on her face.

In fact, although Doris is the presiding priest of the Elegant Lady Church, her sect is only a branch of the church. In her eyes, the Elegant Lady Church is an underground church. Like other ancient churches on the verge of survival, they will be withdrawn from this world at any time.

disappear.

But now she discovered that things were completely different. Whether it was Fernando Delot or Richard Weston, they were both young dignitaries of the French Empire. Such people were all devout believers of the lady, which proved that
Chapter completed!
