"Stop! You can't pass here! "
"I'm the sponsor of the Holy Maiden's float and a live audience. Why can't I go in?"
"You can't go in because it's not time for the opening yet!"
Mr. Assaches knew that there was no point in arguing.
Moreover, he was just saying. He really couldn't prove that he was the sponsor.
He had to give up and leave the watchman's sight. He planned to find another way to enter the venue.
Several cars with the logo of the Public Security Department were parked at the side … Mr. Assaches's eyes turned and he had an idea.
Soon, among the investigators from the Public Security Department who got out of the car, an investigator who was walking at the back with a cigarette in his mouth was instantly dragged to the back of the car.
…
…
Tick tock, tick tock.
Boss Luo was looking at the time on the pocket watch in his hand.
Miss Isabelle looked over curiously, "You seem to care about the time very much."
"I used to care about it," Boss Luo said casually.
"You don't care now?" Isabelle narrowed her eyes and smiled.
"I care about it now," Boss Luo said, "I care that it suddenly disappears as it walks."
Miss Isabelle smiled, "The disappearing time is the past. The past disappears from time but remains in the memory. You are actually counting the time. Only the most bored people count the passing of time. "
Boss Luo thought for a while and said, "Maybe you are right."
Miss Isabelle rested her chin on her hand. They sat together and looked intimate. Miss Isabelle looked more and more like she was looking at a treasure. Her eyes became more and more passionate.
"I've never had much interest in adult guys. Do you know why?" She suddenly asked.
Boss Luo shook his head. He was more inclined to listen to the speaker's narration … even though his guess was not far from the truth.
"Because I think the adult world is dirty." Isabelle gently rubbed her forehead and said, "Maybe it's because they don't trust adults, or maybe it's because young boys and girls always have something that adults don't … In short, it can probably be summed up as' because they're teenagers'. But now that I think about it, there might be some prejudice. So there are people like you. "
However, Boss Luo said, "In the Holy Light Kingdom, you should be able to find many role models. They are friendly, kind, and devout. "
"It's precisely because of piety." Isabelle shook her head. "Everything is based on piety. Working hard to become a role model is also because only by becoming a role model can you be recognized by the public … After being recognized by the public, 'role model' will become a sharp blade hanging over your head. "
Boss Luo shook his head and said, "I can't define myself as kind."
"But you look like one." Isabelle chuckled. "And putting aside all those inner things, I'm the type whose values follow my facial features."
Boss Luo said, "Aren't you afraid that under my mask is the smiling face of the devil?"
Isabel smiled. "This is the kingdom of holy light. Demons can't laugh. If there is, I'd like to meet them. "
At this moment, the sound of the door opening interrupted the conversation between the two.
At the side door of the recording hall, Angel Gerabelle walked in directly, and behind her was an ordinary-looking man.
…
It was really a very ordinary face.
The judges were also whispering among themselves. At this moment, seeing Angel Gerabelle appear again, they all quieted down.
The managers of the Seven Capitals were about to get up, but Angel Gerabelle waved her hand, indicating that they did not need to be so polite. After Angel Gerabelle came in, she went directly to Angel Londo.
As for the ordinary-looking man who followed her, he silently walked to a corner and sat down.
"Have you found the murderer?" Angel Londo asked directly.
"Not yet." Angel Gerabelle shook her head. "But the ceremony is about to officially start. No matter what the murderer's ultimate goal is, if it wants to make a move again, it can only do it under our noses this time."
Angel Londo nodded. "That's right. If the murderer appears again, it won't be able to escape this time. If it doesn't appear, at least the ceremony can be completed smoothly … So, who is the guy who followed you in? "
Angel Gerabelle didn't say anything and just gently shook her head.
Angel Londo frowned slightly, and at the same time, the feeling of irritation in his heart grew stronger. Subconsciously, he picked up the juice and took a sip.
At this moment, Angel Gerabelle stood up and looked at the crowd. "Let's start the ceremony. This ceremony is not open to the audience … As for the reason, I believe the managers of the Seven Capitals will quickly think of it. "
Not open to the audience, the reason … will be quickly thought of?
The managers of the Seven Capitals had strange expressions.
It wasn't that they couldn't think of a reason … In fact, they could use any reason — but at this moment, it was too difficult to prevent the audience from entering the hall!
"Everyone, do you have any good suggestions?"
However, he still had to carry it out. After all, this was an order from the Lord Angel.
…
While the managers of the Seven Capitals were racking their brains, someone was also frowning backstage.
They were the investigators of the [City of Freedom] Public Security Department.
They were called to the scene at the first moment, and they were all experienced investigators in the Public Security Department.
However, they were faced with a murder case of a Holy Maiden candidate, which was incomparable to the previous cases they had investigated.
"Anyway, everyone, do your best. The Mayor is very concerned about this matter." The male assistant of the Mayor of Durand City was also here. In fact, it was the assistant who brought the investigators in.
"Even if you say so, we …" The representative of the investigators smiled bitterly. "Anyway, let us take a look at the body first."
They had read some simple information on the way here.
The victim was called Hua Ying, a graduate of the [City of Freedom] Academy. This was the last time she participated in the Holy Maiden Ceremony — and she was the Mayor's niece.
Then, everyone in the venue at that time was a suspect.
The male assistant quickly led a group of investigators to the place where Hua Ying's body was placed.
Hua Ying's body was placed in a small room backstage. They weren't supposed to destroy the crime scene, but Angel Londo came up and put the body down. In the end, they still couldn't find the murderer.
The ceremony had to continue, so Hua Ying's body had to be moved away temporarily.
A group of investigators walked into the room.
However, one of the investigators walked in the opposite direction with his back facing them.
"Hey, why are you walking over there?"
The investigator who had his back facing the investigators leaned against the wall and covered his stomach. He squeezed his legs and said in a trembling voice, "I … I have a stomachache, a terrible stomachache … I can't take it anymore!"
As he said this, he covered his butt and rushed to the other side of the corridor.
The investigators couldn't help but look at each other.
"Forget it, don't worry about this guy. Let's get down to business." The leader of the investigators shook his head — he also wanted to take a dump!
This kind of deadly case could really be deadly if it was investigated.
…
In the room, the girl was wearing a pink and white ballet costume … The tight costume perfectly showed the girl's figure.
She didn't look like she was dead, but sleeping … like a princess in a fairy tale who was waiting for the prince to kiss her awake — if, if one could ignore the dagger in her chest.
The investigators surrounded the young girl's corpse and began to discuss.
They also began to use the equipment to access all the information about Hua Ying — the information here was not as detailed as the Destiny Diary, but at least it recorded the general trajectory of Hua Ying from childhood to adulthood.
She was excellent in both moral and academic performance, and came from a prominent family. In the eyes of the family, there was no stain on her, so there shouldn't be any enemies.
"According to the motive of the crime, this year's Holy Maiden Candidate is more suspicious. Hua Ying has quite a lot of support this year. "
"Yes, it's high, but it's far from being comparable to the most popular Yulia. If she just wanted to eliminate her competitors, wouldn't Yu Liya be a better choice? "
"This is just a very common dagger, which 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."
"Don't you think there's something wrong with the body?"
"What's wrong?"
"How should I put it …" The investigator frowned and muttered, "Compared to when she entered the door, I feel like … she moved a little?"
"Moved? How can the body move? "
"You're right …" Shaking his head, the investigator decided not to think about this absurd question. But at this moment, he frowned again, "Did you hear anything?"
Everyone frowned, but they still listened subconsciously — there was nothing.
The boss of the investigators couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, "Do you want to go and take a dump? When that guy comes back, I'll expel him from the investigation team! Definitely! "
"Boss, I'm really …" The subordinate of the investigator looked miserable. When he was about to analyze something, his face suddenly changed, "It … it moved! It really moved this time! Look! "
As he said that, the subordinate of the investigator pointed at the body!
When the investigators looked over, they all sucked in a breath of cold air.
The girl's body, which was originally placed on the sofa, was now sitting up — her face was obviously pale, her chest was obviously stained with blood, and she was obviously not breathing!
The girl's neck was now like a rusty gear, slowly turning!
Suddenly, Hua Ying opened her eyes, and her lips curled into a strange arc. The young girl's corpse, with her eyes open, was now facing the investigators with a strange smile!
"You … you're not dead?"
[Hua Ying] still had that weird smile on her face. Her opened pupils were even changing crazily at this moment. What's more, there was a cross-shaped mark in her pupils!
At the same time, the space in the room began to distort!
One after another, distorted vortexes as tall as a person began to fill every corner of the room … Then, bald guys with horrifying cerebral cortex poked their heads out of these distorted vortexes!
Instantly, the investigators only felt a chill on their backs!
They did not even have the time to panic. Instinctively, they pulled out their pistols and pointed at the many people who appeared from the twisting vortexes. But soon, a twisting vortex appeared under their feet. Black arms quickly climbed up their bodies like shadows!
Finally, the investigators were directly pulled into the vortex by the shadowy arms, their mouths and noses were covered, and then slowly dragged into the vortex!
The people in the vortex included the assistant of the mayor of Durand City!
Until finally, with fear in their eyes, they were completely dragged into the vortex and disappeared.
The strange smile on [Hua Ying]'s face suddenly disappeared. She slowly stood up, reached out to pull out the dagger in front of her chest, and threw it on the ground.
"I can't wait any longer …"
One by one, strange frog-like fellows quickly walked out from her side.
At this time, the vortex began to gather together and gradually expanded … The vortex first swallowed the room, then the door, and then the corridor.
It was still expanding!
…
…
He sat in an inconspicuous corner with his eyes closed, as if no one paid special attention to his existence — even the fact that he originally followed the Angel Gerabi into the recording hall began to fade away.
But at this time, the ordinary-looking man slowly opened his eyes.
"It's here again, that feeling of hatred … and it's here …" The man frowned, "But it's fine, since it took the initiative to appear …"
…
Behind the stage.
The staff clapped his hands vigorously, "Everyone, although many things have happened, the ceremony is about to begin … Okay, now, all the girls who participated in the ceremony, come to me! After the ceremony begins, you need to make a collective appearance … Everyone, cheer up! "
Although the staff was shouting very hard, the candidates were obviously not in high spirits at this time, and even when they were concentrating, they were a little sluggish.
The staff didn't care about this, so he braced himself and said, "I'll start the roll call now! The first one, Yu Liya! "
As expected, as the most popular candidate of this year, Yu Liya was the first one to be called. Everyone even felt that there was something wrong with her.
"The first one, Yu Liya! Yu Liya? "
The staff shouted several times, but there was no response.
"What's the matter, is Yu Liya not here?"
A girl said hesitantly, "Senior Yu Liya doesn't seem to be here … At least until now, I haven't seen her. Maybe … she didn't come?"
The voices of discussion.
Yu Liya didn't come?
That was impossible. As the most popular contestant, if she didn't come, the staff didn't dare to imagine how angry the audience outside would be because they were forbidden to enter the venue.
"Yulia!" The staff shouted again, unwilling to give up. "She's here! She's here! If you don't show up, I'm afraid I'll disqualify you! "
"I'm coming, I'm coming —!"
At this moment, the door to the backstage lounge was suddenly opened, and a young girl with a long skirt and a piece of bread in her mouth hurriedly ran in.
"Sorry, I was too hungry, so I found something to eat on the way …"
