At 8 o'clock on Saturday morning, the total martial law in Tobesk City has been lifted, which makes this supposedly ordinary Saturday of Thunder Moon extremely lively.
People who had been stuck at home all day came out of their homes one after another, and the cries of hawkers in the city and the cries of newsboys promoting big news were louder than ever.
The horseshoes and wheels of the rented carriage made a pleasant sound on the street, and the hurried and mixed footsteps made the city full of vitality.
The rising mist enveloped the city, and the chimneys on the outskirts of the city in the distance spewed black smoke into the sky. But none of this can affect people's good mood. Yesterday's actions by the city hall and the church have terrified the citizens who don't know the truth. The news that thousands of people died overnight has also cast a haze on everyone's heart.
Fortunately, everything has returned to normal, and Tobesk is shrouded in mist and sunshine again. Although the weather is not good today, people are in a particularly good mood.
On the bustling Queen Mary Street in the west of the city, the early morning twilight shines on the street, and the pedestrians coming and going do not disturb the tranquility of the single-family three-story building facing the street at all. Perhaps this family is still using peaceful sleep to get through this different Ordinary Saturday.
Wearing black coats and black hats, Dr. Xia De and Dr. Schneider appeared at the street intersection. The two men hurried along, carrying black suitcases in their hands, but in the bustling crowd, they did not attract the attention of others. Notice.
Passing by pedestrians, the carriage also slowly drove past them. The doctor and the detective stopped at the door of No. 17 Queen Mary Street one after the other. Dr. Schneider walked up the steps under the rain eaves, and Xia De stood behind him, with his back to the door and looking around the street.
With a click, the keyhole covered by the blue-eyed doctor turned, and the door opened.
The doctor pushed the door open a crack, and walked in with the suitcase first. Xia De, who was on guard, was carrying a suitcase in his right hand and his left hand in his coat pocket. He looked around, then turned around and walked up the steps, and entered the door close to the crack of the door.

The door was locked from the inside, and the morning sun slanted on the steps of the door. The pedestrians on Queen Mary Street did not notice what happened at this moment.
The two men who entered the interior of No. 17 did not communicate with each other. They quietly put on shoe covers, gloves, and masks in the hallway, and then entered the living room one after the other.
Facing them, a fat maid wearing an apron came over with a plate, and looked at the two strangers in surprise:
"you......"
"Go to sleep."
The doctor said softly, Xia De quickly took the plates from the maid and put them on the table beside him, the doctor carried the sleeping maid to the window and threw it directly into the alley beside the house.
Then they found the remaining two servants on the first floor, put them to sleep, and threw them all into the alley through the side window.
Without staying on the first floor, the men with suitcases walked up the stairs to the second floor.
There are six rooms on both sides of the corridor on the second floor. The doctor walked to the second room on the left, and pushed the room away after confirming that Xia De followed.
The young man who was sitting at the desk packing his luggage looked at the door in astonishment:
"who are you?"
"Her divination is indeed correct, and the information my father sold to me is also correct. He hired a ring magician to protect himself."
The doctor's dull, monotonous voice came from behind the mask.
"What are you trying to do to my employer?"
"Leave here. Your employer is related to the [Lord of the Blood Feast] sect. The correspondence ring warlock of the Zarath School of Magic, if you don't want to cause trouble, leave here immediately."
"How do you know... Forget it, it doesn't matter, everything here has nothing to do with me. It's really unlucky to encounter such a thing. I said why the employment fee is so high. Damn it, I won't be summoned by the academy for questioning Bar."
The young man hastily closed the suitcase, passed by the two masked men, and left without looking back.
Xia De and the doctor still did not continue to communicate, nor did they search the second floor, but went directly to the third floor. Shad used the silence spell he got from Iluna, and then kicked open the door next to the stairs.
After opening the door, Xia De and the doctor raised their guns and shot inside. The three men in the room were beaten into a sieve without saying a word.
"He hired desperadoes to protect him, and death is not a pity."
The doctor lowered the muzzle of the gun, and the gunpowder smoke rose up, and the voices of the men seemed dull behind the masks.
Exit the door with Shad, and they came to the door of the master bedroom on the third floor.
After knocking on the door, the doctor kicked the door open after a rude man cursed inside the door, and walked in with Xia De:
"Whoever moves will kill him."
Two men pointed their guns at the four-poster bed.
The curtains in the room were closed, and it was extremely dark. The air was filled with incense and a strange smell that could be smelled even with a mask on. The floor was covered with a thick carpet, and the men's and women's clothes were tangled on the carpet, the belt of the police uniform and the woman's garter.
The four-poster bed was hung with curtains, and as Xia De, who was walking behind, turned on the gas lamp on the wall, a fat middle-aged man and a woman with a graceful figure loomed behind the curtain.
"Mr Anthony Wargrave, Chief Constable of Redwich Field?"
With gloved hands, the doctor first took out Shade's ID and shook it, then took out a black and white photo from his pocket, glanced at it, and threw it on the bed. Black and white photos.
"MI6? The money is in the safe next door, don't shoot, I'm..."
"You don't have to answer."
The doctor's muzzle trembled, and regardless of the screaming police chief's lover on the bed, he said to Xia De behind him:
"Go and search next door."
"OK."
Xia De turned and walked out of the door. A few tens of seconds later, there was a sound like tearing down the wall from the next room.
Boots tapped the floor, and Shad came back quickly. He holds a cloth bag full of banknotes in his left hand, and holds a plaster statue with ruby eyes in his right hand.
"Found it, in the safe."
"Woman, I'll give you three minutes to get dressed and leave this house, otherwise I can't guarantee what will happen."
The doctor's dull voice came from behind the mask, and the woman who was paralyzed from fright got up, grabbed the clothes on the carpet and left the room. The sound of panicked footsteps disappeared at the stairs.
The doctor's hand holding the gun was very steady. The middle-aged man with his bare upper body was pointed at the top of his head by his gun. He raised his hands high and dared not move. His brown eyes kept looking at the two masked strangers:
"Listen, gentlemen, I can give you money, I can give you..."
"Shut up! Kill you, first because you deserve to die."
The doctor's thumb slowly moved the ram, and the middle-aged man shook his head in despair, but when he opened his mouth, he found that he could no longer make a sound. Working with [Blood of Mercury], he fully understood who was in front of him.
"Second, because you killed my client."
Xia De was talking, walked to the window, drew the curtains and opened the bedroom window.
The sunlight entered the room, making the abnormally white skin of the obese middle-aged man with his upper body bare seemed to reflect light. The warm summer breeze followed, but it did not reassure Anthony Wargrave, who was pointed at.
"Third, do you know how much time and energy we spent looking for this thing?"
The doctor viciously hit the chief of police in the face with the **** of his gun, and dragged him to the window while the middle-aged man lay on the bed moaning in pain.
"You guy who brought me bad luck, lie down here!"
Putting the middle-aged man's head on the window sill, the doctor took one of the statue's eyes from Xia De's hand. After confirming that he was wearing three layers of special protective gloves borrowed from Priest Augustus, he slammed the ruby-shaped glass against the window sill. Immediately, something bright red seeped out of the broken glass.
The whole is like jelly, but there are some liquid components.
Shad opened the suitcase and used the empty bottles prepared in advance to hold the liquids. The doctor observed the color of the blood-red liquid in the sunlight, then dipped some in his glove, and roughly rubbed it into the middle-aged man's mouth.
The Chief of Police at Ridwich Field in Tobesk immediately twitched, and an abnormal blue color spread from his mouth to his whole body.
"It's the [Forged Philosopher's Stone], and the poisoning status is the same as the characteristics given by the academy."
The doctor is relieved.
"There was still some liquid on the ledge and it couldn't all be collected."
Shade reminded with a half-filled vial, and the doctor glanced at the red gum and liquid droplets on the windowsill:
"There is no need to collect all of them. We have to tell the Orthodox Church that we have nothing to do with a cult, but only for this relic."
Let go of the police chief who was poisoned and convulsed ~www.mtlnovel.com~ The doctor opened his suitcase and took out a small bottle of brown liquid. This is the potion "Heart of Fire" taken from the August priest. It is said to be a potion, but it is actually a strong kerosene.
Shade squatted on the ground, and put the other "ruby" eye of the plaster statue, together with the broken liquid, into his suitcase.
With a click~the box was fastened tightly at the same time, and the two men stood up facing the sunlight outside the window.
Xia De lifted the middle-aged man who was still alive to the windowsill with one hand, canceled the silencing spell, and shot him in the head.
Boom~
While terrified shouts sounded one after another on the street, he grabbed the banknotes in the cloth bag and threw them out one by one. The pieces of paper fluttering in the wind carried them farther away, and the banknotes that fell profusely made the shouts on the street even louder.
The doctor smashed the kerosene in his hand to the ground, and the two walked out of the room with their suitcases. At the same time as the door was slammed shut, the doctor stretched out his hand and pointed backward from his shoulder. The violent fire exploded with a bang, black smoke billowed from the window to the sky, and the chaos quickly spread to the entire block.
