“I am the sponsor of the Saint Maiden float and I am also a spectator, why can’t I enter?”
“If you can’t go in, you can’t go in. It’s not opening time yet!”
Mr. Assassis knew that there would be no result in arguing.
Besides, he was just talking about it, and he really couldn’t provide any evidence to prove that he was a sponsor.
He had no choice but to give up and leave the watchman's sight, intending to find another way to enter the venue.
Several cars with the logo of the Sheriff's Department were parked aside... Mr. Azashes turned his eyes and already had an idea in his mind.
Soon, among the investigators from the Public Security Department who got off the car, the one walking at the back who was smoking a cigarette with his head down was instantly dragged behind the car.
…
…
Tick, tick.
Boss Luo is looking at the time on the pocket watch in his hand.
Miss Isabel poked her head over curiously, "You seem to care about time."
“I used to care about it,” Boss Luo said casually.
“You don’t care now?” Isabel narrowed her eyes and smiled.
“I care about it now.” Boss Luo said: “I care about it as I walk, and then it suddenly disappears.”
Miss Isabel smiled and said: "The time that disappears is the past. The past disappears from time, but it will remain in the memory. You are actually counting the time, and only the most boring people will count the passage of time."
Boss Luo thought for a while and said, "Maybe you are right."
Miss Isabel held up her chin, and they sat together, looking intimate at this time. Miss Isabel seemed more and more like she was admiring a treasure, her eyes became more and more intense.
“I’ve never been very interested in grown-up guys, do you know why?” she suddenly asked.
Boss Luo shook his head. He was more inclined to listen to the speaker's self-narration... although the guess could be accurate.
"Because I think the adult world is dirty." Isabel gently rubbed her forehead and said, "Maybe it comes from the distrust of adults, maybe it's because boys and girls always have something that adults don't have... In general
Generally speaking, it can probably be summed up as [because they are teenagers]? But now I think that there may be some prejudice in this, and it turns out that there are also adults like you."
Boss Luo said: "In the Kingdom of Holy Light, you should be able to find many role models. They are friendly, kind, and pious."
"It's because of piety." Isabel shook her head and said: "Everything is based on the foundation of piety. Trying to become a model is also because only by becoming a model can you be recognized by the public... After being recognized by the public, [model], also
It becomes a sharp knife hanging above your head."
Boss Luo shook his head and said, "I can't define myself as kind."
"But you look similar," Isabel said with a chuckle: "And aside from all the inner things, I am the type who follows the facial features first."
Boss Luo said: "Aren't you afraid that there is a devil's smile under my mask?"
Isabel smiled and said: "This is the kingdom of holy light. Devils cannot laugh. If there is one, I want to see it."
At this moment, the sound of opening the door signaled the communication between the two.
At the side door of the video recording hall, Angel Grabe walked directly in, and behind her was an ordinary-looking man.
…
It’s really a very ordinary, popular face.
The judges themselves also had small conversations among themselves. At this time, seeing Angel Grabe appearing again, they all fell silent.
The managers of the Seven Capitals were about to stand up, but Angel Grabei waved his hand, indicating that they did not need to be polite. After Angel Grabei approached, they came directly to Angel Langdu.
As for the ordinary man who followed him, he silently walked to the corner and sat down.
“Has the murderer been found?” Angel Langdu asked directly at this time.
"Not yet." Angel Grabe shook his head: "But the ceremony is about to officially begin. No matter what the murderer's ultimate goal is, if he wants to do it again, this time he can only do it under our noses."
Angel Langdu nodded: "Yes, if the murderer appears again, he will definitely not be able to escape this time. If he does not appear, at least the ceremony can be completed smoothly... So, who is the guy who followed you in?"
Angel Grabel didn’t say anything, but shook his head gently.
Angel Langdu frowned slightly, and at the same time, the irritability in his heart became more and more intense. Subconsciously, he picked up the juice and took a sip.
At this time, Angel Grabei stood up directly, looked at everyone and said: "The ceremony is ready to begin. This ceremony will not be open to the audience... The reason is that I believe that you, the managers of the Seven Capitals, will be very happy."
I figured it out quickly."
Not open to the audience, the reason...can you think of it quickly?
The manager of Qidu looked strange for a moment.
It’s not that I can’t think of a reason... Actually, I can use any reason. But at this time, it is too difficult to break in and ban the audience who are ready from entering the seats!
“Everyone, do you have any good suggestions?”
But it must be implemented in the end. After all, this is an instruction from the angel.
…
While the managers of the Seven Capitals were thinking hard, there were also people in the backstage of the stage who were frowning.
【Free City】Investigators of the Public Security Department.
They were called to the scene immediately, and they were all experienced investigators from the Sheriff’s Department.
But what they were facing was the murder case of a Saint Maiden candidate, which was not comparable to the cases they had investigated before.
“Anyway, please do your best, the city lord is very concerned about this matter.” The male assistant of the city lord Durand was also here at this time, and it was actually the male assistant who brought the investigators in.
"Even if you say so, we still..." The investigator's representative smiled bitterly at this time, "Anyway, let us see the body first, right?"
They had already seen some simple information on the way.
The victim’s name is Hua Ying, she is a graduate of [Free City Academy]. This is her last time to participate in the Holy Maiden Ceremony and she is also the niece of the Lord of the City.
Then, everyone in the venue at that time was suspected.
The male assistant quickly led a group of investigators to the place where Hua Ying's body was laid.
Hua Ying's body was placed in a small room at the backstage. The murder scene was not supposed to be destroyed, but Angel Langdu came up and put the body down. But in the end, the murderer was not found. who is it.
As for the ceremony, it still had to continue. After having no choice but to do so, Hua Ying’s body could only be temporarily moved away.
A group of investigators walked into the room.
But there was an investigator with his back to everyone at this time, walking in the opposite direction.
“Hey, what are you doing over there?”
The investigator, who was carrying everyone on his back, was suddenly holding on to the wall, covering his stomach, crossing his legs and starting to tremble. He even squeezed his voice and said: "I, I... I have a stomachache, it hurts so much" Awesome…I can’t do it anymore!”
As he spoke, the miserable-looking investigator even covered his buttocks and quickly rushed to the other side of the corridor.
At this time, all the investigators couldn't help but look at each other.
"Forget it, don't worry about this guy, business matters." The boss of the investigator shook his head. He really wanted to get paid to shit!
This kind of fatal case may really be fatal if investigated.
…
In the room, the girl was wearing a pink and white ballet costume... The compact dance costume perfectly showed off the girl's figure.
She doesn’t seem to be dead, but seems to be asleep... as if she is a princess in a fairy tale who is waiting for the prince to kiss her awake. If, if you can ignore the dagger stuck in her chest at this time.
The investigators gathered around the girl's body and began to discuss it.
At this time, they also began to use equipment to access all the information about Hua Ying. The information here is naturally not as detailed as the destiny diary, but at least it records the general trajectory of Hua Ying from childhood to adulthood.
Be excellent in both character and academics, have a distinguished family background, and in the eyes of the family, children of other families have no stains and should not be enemies.
“Based on the motive for committing the crime, the candidates for the Holy Maiden of this year are more likely to be suspected. Hua Ying’s voice in this year is quite high.”
“High is high, but it is far inferior to the most popular Yulia. If it is just to eliminate competitors, wouldn’t the most popular Yulia be a better choice?”
“This is just a very ordinary dagger. It can be found everywhere. If we want to trace the source, I’m afraid it won’t be solved in a short time.”
“The point is, we obviously don’t have much time.”
“Do you feel like there’s something wrong with this body?”
“What’s wrong?”
"How should I put it..." The investigator who spoke frowned at this time and said thoughtfully: "Compared with when I entered the door just now, it seems that... it has moved a little bit?"
“Move? How can a corpse move?”
"That's right..." Shaking his head, the investigator decided not to think about such absurd questions, but at this moment, he frowned again: "Did you hear any sounds?"
Everyone frowned, but still listened subconsciously.
The boss of the investigator couldn't help but said a little annoyed: "Do you also want to take a paid shit? When that guy comes back, I will expel him from the investigation team! Definitely!"
"Boss, I really..." The investigator's subordinate had a bitter look on his face. He was about to analyze something when his face suddenly changed. "It's moving... it's moving! It's really moving this time! Look!"
Speaking, the investigator’s subordinate immediately raised his finger!
When all the investigators looked at it, they all took a breath of cold air.
I saw that the girl's body, which was originally placed on a sofa, was actually sitting up at this time. Her face was obviously pale, her chest was obviously stained with large amounts of blood, and she was obviously no longer breathing!
The girl's neck was turning like a rusty gear at this time!
Suddenly, Hua Ying opened her eyes, and her lips curved in a strange arc. The body of the girl who opened her eyes showed a strange smile to the investigators!
“You...you’re not dead?”
【Hua Ying】 still maintained a weird smile, and her opened pupils were even changing crazily at this time. What’s more, the marks of a cross star actually appeared in the pupils!
At the same time, the space in the room began to distort!
Twisted vortices as tall as one person after another began to fill all parts of the room... I saw bald guys with terrifying cerebral cortexes poking their heads out of these twisted vortices!
In an instant, the investigators felt chills on their backs!
They didn't even have time to panic. They instinctively took out their pistols and pointed them at the many guys who appeared from the twisted vortex. But soon, a twisted vortex appeared under their feet, and their black arms were like shadows, extremely fast.
The ground crawled up their bodies!
Finally, the investigator was directly tightened by the shadow-like arms, covering his mouth and nose, and then dragged into the whirlpool little by little!
The people here even include the assistant of Lord Durand!
Until, with fearful eyes, they were finally dragged into the whirlpool and disappeared.
The weird smile on [Hua Ying]'s face suddenly faded. She slowly stood up, reached out and pulled out the dagger from her chest, and threw it on the ground.
“I can’t wait any longer...”
One...weird frog-like guys quickly walked out from her side.
At this time, the whirlpool began to gather together and gradually expanded... The whirlpool first swallowed the room, then the door of the room, and then the corridor.
It continues to expand!
…
…
He sat in an inconspicuous place in the corner with his eyes closed, as if no one paid special attention to his existence. Even the fact that he followed Angel Grabe into the video hall began to be forgotten.
.
But at this moment, the ordinary-looking man slowly opened his eyes.
"The feeling of hatred has appeared again...and it's right here." The man frowned, "But it's okay, since it shows up on its own initiative..."
…
Behind the stage.
The staff clapped their hands vigorously and said, "Everyone, although a lot of things have happened, the ceremony is about to begin... Okay, now, all the participating girls come to me! The first section after the ceremony begins,
You need a collective appearance...brace yourselves!"
Despite the staff shouting very hard, the spirits of the Saint Maiden candidates were obviously not high at this time, and they even seemed to be dragging their feet when they were concentrating.
The staff didn't care about this and had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "I'm going to call the roll now! The first one is Yulia!"
Not surprisingly, as the most popular candidate this year, Yulia was the first to be named, and everyone even thought there was something wrong with it.
“First, Yulia! Yulia?”
The staff just shouted several times in succession, but there was no response.
“What’s going on? Is Yulia not here?”
A girl hesitated and said at this time: "Senior Yulia, it seems that I haven't seen anyone...at least so far, I haven't seen her. Maybe she...hasn't come?"
The voice of discussion.
Yulia was not present?
This is not okay. As the most popular player, if he cannot be present, the staff cannot imagine how angry the group of spectators outside who have become irritable because they are not allowed to enter will be.
“Yuliya!” The staff member shouted again without giving up: “Are you here or not? If you don’t show up, I’m afraid I will disqualify you!”
“Coming, coming, coming!”
At this moment, the door to the backstage rest room suddenly opened, and a girl holding a long skirt and a piece of bread in her mouth hurriedly ran in.
“I’m sorry, I’m really hungry. I found some food on the way...”
