After checking the surroundings with his mental strength for a few minutes, Connor retracted his mental strength with a darkened face. Connor had to admit that Paredes had once again given him a 'surprise'. To be able to escape with such injuries was completely out of Connor's expectations.
Shifting his gaze to the dim silver bowl that had fallen to the ground, Connor's eyes flickered. He beckoned at the silver bowl with his palm, and the strange silver bowl that had just turned into a barrier and trapped Connor in it landed in his hand without any resistance. After checking the silver bowl and confirming that it was no longer a threat to him, Connor stored the silver bowl in his interspatial ring and quickly left Harland Cemetery.
After walking out of the cemetery, Connor saw the dismembered corpses of the old coachman who brought him here and the workhorses that pulled the carriage. The scene looked extremely bloody. Not only that, Connor also sensed the aura of Paredes, who had escaped, and a few drops of blood that had his aura. From the looks of it, Paredes had vented his anger from being injured by Connor on the innocent passersby.
Just as Connor frowned and was about to clean up the scene, his mental strength suddenly sensed three Knights in Loen police uniforms rushing over on horseback about seven to eight hundred meters away from Harland Cemetery.
“SHIT!” The appearance of these three policemen made Connor's already gloomy mood turn even worse. He immediately blurted out a curse. Needless to say, these knights were likely attracted by the white smoke he had just released. Although these people were only ordinary knights, and it wouldn't be difficult for Connor to kill them, Connor clearly couldn't do so. These three knights represented the Loen police. If he were to kill them, it would be very difficult to deal with them!
Shaking his head, Connor decided not to do anything. He directly entered the surrounding grass and left silently. He had just checked the surroundings of Harland Cemetery. There were no witnesses. Furthermore, the bloody scene was caused by Paredes, and it had nothing to do with him. Therefore, even if the policemen really found something from the bloody scene, it had nothing to do with Connor Ferguson. He only wanted to clean up the scene because he wanted to avoid unnecessary trouble. It was just a habit. Since the policemen had arrived, it didn't matter to him if he handed the scene over to them.
Three minutes after Connor left, three policemen in Loen police trench coats with revolvers in their hands appeared in front of Harland Cemetery. They were on high alert.
Looking at the bloody ground, two of the young policemen's expressions changed. One of them seemed to have a poor tolerance. He couldn't help but turn his head and vomit.
"Boss! Judging from the scene, the perpetrator shouldn't have gone far. Should we start the search now? " The blond young man who didn't vomit asked the old policeman. Judging from his words, the old policeman should be his superior.
The old policeman slowly scanned the horrifying scene and sighed. He waved his hand and said, "Let's not do anything. We'll wait here for ten minutes!"
"Wait for ten minutes?" The young blonde policeman didn't seem to understand why his superior was doing this. He asked in confusion, "What's the matter?
"If you don't want to die, stay here quietly for ten minutes. After ten minutes, come back to the police station with me and report what happened here. This isn't something you and I can interfere with, do you understand?" The old policeman pointed at the young blond policeman and said sternly.
After he finished speaking, the old policeman glanced at the trees on both sides of the road from the corner of his eyes. It seemed like his words weren't just for the young blonde policeman.

Although Connor didn't kill Paredes as he expected, judging from the blood and smell left behind by Paredes, Paredes was seriously injured after being hit by Connor's mental attack twice. Paredes was seriously injured, so it was impossible for him to follow and spy on Connor like before. Thinking of this, Connor achieved his goal of getting rid of Paredes. Without Paredes, Connor could finally make some arrangements for Senxi Villa and Old Victor two days later. The first step of these arrangements was to go to Jennifer's Underwear Store in the Empire Department Store.
"Give this letter to Marguerite. She knows what to do!" In the inner hall of Jennifer's Underwear Store, Connor, who was wearing a very low bowler hat and a layer of artificial mask, told Leoni in a very serious tone.
"What's going on?" Leoni took the letter from Connor and put it into her space-teleportation ring. After that, she glanced at Connor and asked with a frown. She had known Connor for a long time, but this was the first time that she saw Connor being so anxious. If Connor didn't take the initiative to reveal his identity, she would never believe that this person in front of her was Connor Ferguson, the heir of the earl.
Seeing that Leoni had accepted his letter, Connor's anxiety eased a little. Facing Leoni's question, he shook his head and didn't say much. But after a while, he seemed to think of something and said to Leoni, "Tell Marguerite that what happened in Harland Cemetery today has something to do with me. Tell her to keep an eye on it for me!"
Seeing that Connor wasn't willing to tell her what had happened, although Leoni was curious, she didn't force him. She nodded at Connor, indicating that she would pass on Connor's message to Marguerite.
Seeing Leoni's nod, a smile finally appeared on Connor's face. He then nodded slightly at Leoni as a form of greeting, walked out of the inner hall, and left the Empire Department Store.
After returning to his apartment, Connor didn't stay idle. During this trip to Senxi Villa in the suburbs of Loen, although Connor believed that the possibility of Old Victor directly attacking him wasn't high, he still had to take precautions. Although he had Marguerite's help, Connor felt that he still had to prepare some things himself.
There were still two days before the meeting at Senxi Villa. This was enough time for him to make some gadgets to give Old Victor a "surprise"!
