Qin Zhibo looked through all the postcards and found no writing on other postcards.
Then combined with the address sent by the postcard, the only option is to return to Hawaii quickly.
The sender not only knows his current specific address, but also this person has been in Hawaii for a long time.
In this case, it can basically be concluded that it is someone who is relatively close to the "original owner".
Because the purpose of the "original owner" coming to Japan was to follow in the footsteps of CIA agent Ethan Hondo to investigate the organization, and he also used a pseudonym in order to hide his identity.
If you are not a very close relationship, you will definitely not expose your whereabouts to the other person.
Could it be his parents, or even his wife?
Qin Zhibo thought for a while and felt that this was impossible.
If the "original owner" had been married and had a wife, James and Yasuharu Haneda, who were old friends during this period, would at least ask about their family's current situation.
And this strange way of communication doesn't feel like the way a family communicates.
It seems that for the sake of confidentiality, I chose to send postcards.
Moreover, I have sent postcards more than once, and it has even become a regular habit.
But why is this the only time the sender asks for a "quick reply"?
On the way to Haneda Airport, Qin Zhibo kept thinking in his mind and made many assumptions.
But in the end I still had no clue.
The only way now is to go back to Hawaii to meet with the sender in person.
Of course, this must wait until he meets up with Kudo Yusaku and others.
…
Fifteen hours later, the plane landed at General Edwards Airport in Boston, Massachusetts.
Qin Zhibo came to the Marriott Hotel near Boston's Inner Bay based on the address provided by Kudo Yusaku.
Here, he met the Kudo couple and the Kuroba couple.
"Thank you for your hard work, please sit down."
In the luxurious presidential suite, Kudo Yusaku arranged for Qin Zhibo to sit on the sofa, while Yukiko was responsible for preparing drinks for several people.
As soon as Qin Zhibo took his seat, he looked at Black Feather Pirates and asked impatiently.
"Mr. Kuroba, what did you investigate in Innsmouth?"
"Mr. Qin, please don't worry. We still need to wait for a guest to come before our meeting can begin."
Kuroba Bandit responded politely, with such a gentlemanly demeanor that the eyes of Kuroba Qiankage next to him were drawn.
I believe that during this period of investigation, the couple who had been separated for several years must have spent one unforgettable night after another.
This is also the reason why I didn’t bring Kuroba Kaito with me to America in the first place.
Seeing what Black Feather Bandit said, Qin Zhibo temporarily restrained his eagerness, took the coffee from Yukiko, and took a sip to refresh himself.
At this moment, the sound of the doorbell came from the guest room door.
bite--
"The last guest has arrived."
Kudo Yusaku put down the coffee cup in his hand, stood up and went to open the door.
Even though Qin Zhibo was sitting on the sofa, he looked over curiously.
When the door opened, a familiar figure stood outside the door.
This person is none other than the top executive of Nine Angels, Luc Villiers.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Kudo."
"Welcome, Mr. Villiers, please come in."
Luc Villiers took off his hat and nodded to Kudo Yusaku, then entered the suite with a slender black crutch in his right hand.
Seeing Qin Zhibo and Heiyu Tuoyi sitting on the sofa, he nodded and greeted them.
"Mr. Qin, Mr. Heiyu, good afternoon."
The two nodded in response.
Yukiko stepped forward and took the windbreaker and hat that Luc Villiers had taken off. Just as he was about to take his crutches, Luc Villiers smiled slightly and declined.
"Sorry, Mrs. Kudo, I'm still used to it being in my hand."
"It doesn't matter."
Yukiko smiled politely and hung Luc's clothes on the coat rack in the corner.
Qin Zhibo looked at Luc Villiers who was seated, and then at the other people present.
The last time we had this lineup was at the Stonehenge ceremony in London.
It seems that Kuroba Toichi did investigate something remarkable this time.
When everyone sat down on the sofa, the Black Feather Thief glanced at everyone and said solemnly: "Then I will start to tell about my investigation in Innsmouth."
"First of all, my investigation concluded that someone is currently trying some means to resurrect 'Cthulhu'."
"And this person's purpose may be close to being achieved..."
Black Feather Pirates' face was serious, and his tone paused before continuing.
"And this means of resurrecting 'Cthulhu', after I disguised myself as an Innsmouth believer during this period of time and inquired about it in the secret sect, I think it is most likely to be 'Cthulhu'."
"She is the daughter of Cthulhu and the key to Cthulhu's resurrection. She is called the 'Hidden One' among believers."
"Among those believers, there is a legend that the great Cthulhu will be born from the womb of Ksheela after conception, and then rule the world again."
"While believers firmly believe in this legend, I also found out a very crucial piece of information."
"It was about 20 years ago that Ksheela did exist in the Devil's Reef waters near the Innsmouth estuary."
"But at a certain point in time, the waters of Devil's Reef were completely destroyed, and Ksheela mysteriously disappeared at that time."
As soon as Black Feather Pirates told this, Qin Zhibo suddenly remembered that he had once dived into the so-called Devil's Reef.
In that underwater city made of rocks, there was an atomic bomb that did not explode.
However, the underwater city was indeed severely damaged, as if it had suffered a major attack, but there are still a small number of deep divers operating in that area.
Qin Zhibo immediately told everyone about his discovery.
After hearing this, Kudo Yusaku didn't care about why Qin Zhibo had been to the Devil's Reef waters. Instead, he held his chin and said in a deep voice: "It seems that the organization has started the layout at least more than ten years ago..."
"It's just that since Ksheela is needed to resurrect Cthulhu, why attack him with weapons?"
At this time, Black Feather Thief opened his mouth and said: "In the Esoteric Cult, some believers claim to be able to sense the existence of Keshila."
"And the weapons can only hurt Him at most, but cannot kill Him."
"But if we can find Keshila, we will definitely have the upper hand..."
After Black Feather Pirates finished speaking, there was silence in the air for a while.
Qin Zhibo thought to himself, if Xila is the means to organize the resurrection of Cthulhu, then there should be no reason to attack him.
Moreover, is it possible to impregnate an Old One with human power?
According to common sense, if you want to conceive an old ruler, you must at least be an old ruler with equal power. Suddenly, a thought flashed in Qin Zhibo's mind.
If we talk about conception, it is nothing more than the power of giving birth to life.
When it comes to this aspect, it is none other than the Supreme Mother Goddess - Shub Nicholas.
In the Aphrodite incident some time ago, it was a summoning ceremony held around the Supreme Mother Goddess.
Although the summoning ceremony on the Aphrodite was blocked by him, it seemed that the authority and power of Shub Nicholas still came, and by the way, his wish came true.
In other words, the ceremony was actually completed.
At that time, except for the ship designer and the first officer on the Aphrodite, only the ceremony was held on the ship that might have been organized.
The ship organized by the organization had maintained a low profile over the years, but this time the incident appeared in the sea near the wreck site, was witnessed by hundreds of passengers, and even made the news.
Such a huge risk must also be in order to obtain equivalent returns.
The summoning ceremony of Shub Nicholas was probably the purpose of that ship coming to that sea area.
And there is another piece of evidence, that is, I felt a terrifying mental fluctuation at that time.
That mental wave came from the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, maybe even from the underwater city of R'lyeh.
Qin Zhibo expressed his thoughts again.
Hearing this, everyone's eyes were as serious as facing a powerful enemy.
Because if Qin Zhibo's conjecture is correct, it means that the organization has even completed the stage of impregnating Keshila.
At this moment, Yukiko asked: "But there was no 'Kshira' on the sea at that time, right?"
"If conception is completed, shouldn't the sound of... be loud?"
"A lot of people should be aware of it, right?"
"Didn't nothing else happen on the sea at that time except the sinking of the Aphrodite?"
Yukiko is trying to use anthropomorphism to understand the reproduction method of the Old Ones.
But Kudo Yusaku shook his head and denied his wife's statement.
"No."
"Perhaps the process of Ksheela's conception was not what you imagined..."
"Besides, Xila doesn't have to stay in the sea."
As soon as Kudo Yusaku finished speaking, Qin Zhibo, Kuroba Toichi, and Luc Villiers' eyes suddenly changed.
But Yukiko still looked puzzled and asked: "Yusaku, what do you mean you don't have to stay in the sea?"
"Isn't He a sea creature?"
Qin Zhibo took a deep breath and said, "The ship organized by the organization is very large, so there is another possibility..."
"Then Ksheela is on the ship of the organization."
As soon as these words came out, except for Yukiko and Kuroba Chikage, whose expressions were a little stunned, the others' expressions became more solemn.
This is the most troublesome possibility, but it is also the greatest possibility.
More than ten years ago, Xila was not expelled from that sea area, but captured.
As Yukiko said, as the daughter of Cthulhu, even though she is an old ruler, her power should still be infinitely close to that of a sea creature.
The organization used weapons to weaken K'shira and the Deep Ones, then captured K'shira and imprisoned them on the ship.
Over the years, the ship has drifted in the seas of the world, its whereabouts are uncertain.
The purpose should be to wait for the most important time node.
That's when the stars align.
When the stars return to their alignment, Cthulhu will be reborn in glory from the womb of Xira.
For a moment, everyone fell into silence.
Because if this is the organization's plan, then the organization is infinitely close to success.
Once Ksheela has been successfully conceived, the organization only needs to use that ship to move Ksheela around the world to delay time.
Although Kudo Yusaku had already formulated a method to search for the whereabouts of the ship in a previous video conference with the FBI, it will still take some time before the global cross-age identification system is officially put into use.
And even if that system is put into use, it is unlikely that the location of the ship can be found in a short time.
After all, the whereabouts of organization members are very secretive, and it is unlikely that their faces will be photographed by others or recorded by surveillance cameras.
At this moment, Luc Villiers, who had been silent until now, broke the silence.
"There is one more thing I need to tell you."
Everyone's eyes turned to him.
Luc Villiers' expression was very serious, and his slightly wrinkled eyebrows seemed to be a little tangled.
But after two seconds, he still made up his mind and spoke.
"The boss of today's organization was actually once a member of the Nine Angels."
As soon as he said this, everyone else present showed a look of astonishment on their faces.
Luc Villiers seemed to have guessed that these people would have such a reaction, so he didn't pay too much attention and kept talking.
"Strictly speaking, Renye Karasuma's father, Mr. John Spencer, is the founder of the Nine Angels organization and one of the members of the 'Nine Choir'."
"In 1877, after the death of Mr. Spencer, Renye Karasuma inherited his father's position among the Nine Angels and became one of the leaders of the Nine Angels."
"However, in the seventh year after he inherited the position of Nine Angels, he caused an incident, took the opportunity to kill eight other leaders, and took away certain important items from the organization. His whereabouts have been unknown since then."
"After that, the nine angels called this person a 'fallen angel'."
"It was only after I learned the identity and background of the organization's boss from Mr. Qin that I investigated this person's past experience from the historical records of the Nine Angels organization."
After listening to Luc Villiers' statement, everyone's expressions gradually changed from the initial shock to calmness.
Such a resume is just an understatement in Renya Karasuma's long life.
Qin Zhibo crossed his fingers, looked up at Luc Villiers and asked: "What important items did he take away from the Nine Angels back then?"
"It's a disk, called Paneste disk."
Upon hearing this familiar term, Qin Zhibo's eyes suddenly changed.
In this way, everything is correct.
After Renye Karasuma joined forces with the Xagai Zerg and killed his biological father, he inherited the title, fief, and position in the Nine Angels organization.
Using the vast network of the Nine Angels organization, he collected the Paneste Discs, which were the only tokens that allowed him to reach the Abyss of Enkai and safely meet the toad god Thathogua.
Here in Tsathogua, he most likely obtained the formula for the elixir of immortality, allowing him to live a long life.
At this moment, Kudo Yusaku asked Luc Villiers.
"And Amanda Hughes is..."
Luc Villiers solemnly said: "Ms. Amanda is the successor of the Hughes family, and her father is one of the Nine Angels leaders who was killed by Renye Karasuma."
"Ms. Amanda is a respectable person, and her lifelong wish is to avenge her father."
"It's a pity that 17 years ago, Ms. Amanda also died at the hands of the organization..."
