Kieran was like a tourist visiting Eiders for the first time.
He spent the whole day touring the whole of Eiders.
Of course, he also took the time to read the note that the young man had given him.
The contents of the note were as follows:
Missing 1: Carlo Derl, Kellot Derl (The two nephews of Mayor Sloo Derl. To Derl, who had no children, the two nephews were the only candidates to inherit everything he owned in Eiders. However, both of them went missing in the evening)
Missing 2: Annie Penny Lyn (The only daughter of Parliament Speaker Hardy Lyn, went missing a day before the mutation)
Death 1: Quaker Wilberst (One of the sons of the wealthy merchant Wilberst, was found dead in his own house three days before the mutation)
Death 2: Aimor Morr (The only son of Parliament Speaker Morr, was found dead in a hotel four days before the mutation)
Two missing and two dead.
It was insignificant in a world filled with monsters, but the identities of the missing and the dead, just like what the young man had said, were not simple at all.
The mayor, the speaker of the Parliament, the councilmen, and the wealthy merchant.
It almost included all the upper echelons of Eiders.
Based on common sense, once such a thing happened, it would surely cause an uproar, but the strange thing was, it was quiet.
The imagination that defied common sense made Kieran squint his eyes.
"Are these people related to the mutation in Eiders?"
Kieran thought of it instinctively.
At the moment, Eiders would only behave strangely if it was related to the mutation.
Of course!
There was another possibility!
When the thought popped up in his mind, Kieran's squinted eyes glimmered with an unusual brilliance.
However, he didn't make his move right away. Instead, he went back to Stove-grilled Fish according to his original plan.
There was still a show that required his cooperation.
He didn't mind taking the initiative to attack, nor did he mind luring out all the enemies hiding in the dark.
Regardless of which method he used, Kieran's ultimate goal was to achieve victory.
Based on that, in order to achieve a better victory, Kieran gave a new order to Hyacinth.
…
Inside the Stove-grilled Fish, Will and Mier were sitting opposite each other. Around them was a group of Special Operation Division members, and behind the counter, Lagren was frowning.
Smith and the children had already returned to their room.
No one spoke in the lobby of the inn. As they stared at each other, the atmosphere unconsciously became oppressive.
"Will, do you think it's possible?"
The young female consultant couldn't stand such an atmosphere and couldn't help but say.
She did not call Will grandpa.
It was a habit she had developed since she was a child, and Will had never corrected it.
Or in other words, Wier informed the young female consultant of the name.
That was because of the warning from that big shot.
Although that great figure was not omniscient and omnipotent, every time he spoke, his words would always come true. Thus, Will knew what to choose.
However, it was different this time.
This time, there was no need for that big shot to say anything.
More than five people saw the culprit.
"I know what you want to say."
"I don't understand either."
So, I want to hear D's explanation. Why did he attack the mayor of Eiders? "
Wier glanced at the angry Mier and signaled his granddaughter to calm down.
"Why?"
"Of course, someone is trying to frame D!"
"Just because they look alike means they are the same person?"
"Then those shapeshifters can represent everyone!"
Mier said quickly.
The young consultant couldn't calm down at all. When she knew D tried to assassinate the mayor, she became anxious. She was a hundred percent sure this was all a conspiracy.
A conspiracy against D.
Although she wasn't sure who the mastermind of the conspiracy was, she was sure the conspiracy was ill-intentioned.
When they left for Eiders, the Senate was already in a mess.
As for the topic of the argument?
It revolved around whether or not to expel the Demon Hunter.
Given the mutated Eiders, how irrational was it to expel a powerful Demon Hunter? However, the Demon Hunter disobeyed the rules and attacked the mayor, which was also worrisome.
Mier could very well imagine how both sides argued in the Senate.
She felt disgusted by it.
She knew it was just a bunch of shameless politicians trying to gain merits for themselves.
They didn't even care what Eiders would become.
Even if they supported the Demon Hunter staying, it was just an instinctive opposition between the politicians.
There was no good or evil.
What they had was shamelessness that could change in an instant.
"The shapeshifters don't have that kind of strength."
Wier shook his head.
Huuhaa, Huuhaa.
Mier couldn't help but breathe heavily when she heard her grandfather's emphasis.
"Are you suspecting D as well?"
Mier widened her eyes.
"It's not that I'm suspecting him.
I believe in the evidence. "
Wier continued.
His words were destined to infuriate Mier even more. Almost instinctively, Mier wanted to flip the table in front of her.
However, clear footsteps could be heard at this moment.
Mier stopped her movements.
Wier, on the other hand, looked even more serious.
The Spec Ops members around him straightened their bodies, their faces showing a sense of helplessness.
They also didn't believe D would assassinate someone unrelated to them.
However, they couldn't disobey orders.
Dak Dak Dak.
Tssk Gak!
The footsteps were getting closer, and when the wooden door opened, Kieran came in.
After glancing over everyone in the hall, Kieran pretended to be expressionless and prepared to go upstairs.
"Wait."
Wier stopped him.
However, Kieran didn't care, as if he didn't hear Wier. Kieran continued up the stairs.
"Wait.
I'm not here to continue the conversation we had this morning.
I'm here because of the mayor's assassination.
We have enough evidence to prove that you are related to this case, so please help us with the investigation. "
Wier hastened his speech, acting like he was doing his job.
This time around, Kieran didn't leave.
He turned around and asked with his unique cold tone, "Assassination?"
"Yes.
Although the rescue was in time and the mayor's life wasn't in danger, he is still unconscious.
So … "
"Do you think if I wanted to kill someone, he would still be alive?"
Kieran interrupted Wier right away.
Wier was stunned, he had to take a deep breath.
"That's why I said you are related to this case and not the one who tried to assassinate the mayor."
Wier then walked closer to Kieran and said softly, "D, I need your cooperation — you don't want the bastard who impersonated you to get away with it, right?"
"Cooperate with me, I'm 100% confident in catching him!"
Kieran looked at Wier, his expressionless face suddenly showing a smile.
"I refuse."
