Arnold sat in the corner and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.Although the demon god Aini just now was not hostile to him, he still gave him a strong sense of oppression, just like when he faced the coercion of the Morning Star Lucifer when he was exorcizing.The oppressive force of the superior made Arnold sweat, and although he had risen to the level of a tiger-level investigator, he was still powerless to resist the existence of these mysterious side peaks.The feeling of seeing through all the thoughts in his heart made Arnold feel a sense of powerlessness.Jobuterrand leads the team to explore the warehouse behind the battlefield; The food in the warehouse was scattered on the floor, giving off the smell of several food mixtures.The high temperature brought by the purple fire had roasted some of the fruits and vegetables in the warehouse, and the air was filled with sweetness and the smell of human-faced rats being burned.The two very different smells caused the team members to feel a strange olfactory stimulus, and they quickly covered their mouths and noses with handkerchiefs before going in to explore.The purple flame that remained on the ground slowly extinguished with the loss of combustibles and Arnold's support, but the torches held by the team members still lit up the space in the warehouse.Covered in the light of the torches, the view inside the warehouse was unobstructed, and a skeleton with only white bones left lay on a pile of rice bags.There was blood and hair on the sack, and the skeleton was in a state of holding its head in both hands.After a cursory comparison of heights, Jobron determined that the skeleton in front of him was Eisen.Eisen's death was extremely painful from the bones, each bone had signs of shattering, and the marrow in the bones, the tendons on the bones, and all the internal organs seemed to disappear out of thin air.Judging from the skull alone, there are at least twenty bite marks on it, so Eisen's death is naturally self-evident.Seeing this, Jobuterrand clenched his fists, and he blamed himself for letting Yudecao go; If it weren't for the momentary negligence that gave Youdecao a chance to escape, there would not have been this series of tragedies.Pipque, who sensed Jobron's mood shifts, walked up to him and pressed his head against Jobbutron's palm.This is the comfort that belongs to Pippi.Chobuterrand felt the warmth from Pipsqueak and gently rubbed his head.Jobuterron reinvigorated himself and adjusted his emotions by taking deep breaths.Jobuterrand's handling of this series of accidents has also caused him to panic these days, and when he calms down, he thinks of one thing that Pippi reminds himself of, and that is that Yudecao may not have gone too far.He hurriedly walked up to Arnold, bowed to Arnold, and then asked, "Master, I don't know if you are still free, there is a fanatic from the Yellow Cloak who is on the run, and with our current strength, we may not be able to defeat him, I hope you can help us." ”Arnold nodded, and he spoke, "I can help you with this, but I have to go back and report today's information first."
You also have to send someone to deal with the scene, otherwise it will be very troublesome to be discovered. ”"Understood, by the way, I will also prepare horses for you, and I will send a few people to block the scene in a while."
Jobuterron responded."
Well, you let your subordinates get busy first.I want to confirm one thing.You come with me. ”Arnold straightened his crutches and braced himself up.After standing up straight, he stretched his muscles, and there was a crackling sound in his body."
Ouch, old man.I'm not in good health.Let's go, let's go. ”Jobuterrand gave Tristne a look, and followed half a step behind Arnold.They returned to the main hall, and Arnold walked to the pulpit in the main hall.The ground was littered with fragments of statues and wooden frames, which had not yet had time to be disposed of.Seeing that his mentor seemed to be exploring the area, Jobbuterron took the initiative to clean up the scene.Jobuterrand rolled up his sleeves and moved the pieces of the statue on the ground piece by piece.Arnold couldn't help but laugh when he saw it, and he struck Jobtron on the head with his cane and said, "Won't you first ask me what I'm looking for?"
”Jobuterron was stunned for a moment and then put down the piece in his hand, "You have a point.I made it my own mind. ”Arnold smiled, and remembered that Chobuterrand and Tristne had been so submissive to him."
Jobuterron is a smart kid, suitable to be a detective in the future, and he will be able to take charge of himself when he grows up; And Tristne is too weak, so he is more suitable to be Jobtron's deputy and handle some chores. ”Arnold remembered the time when he brought the two children out of Arkham Welfare Home.At that time, Arnold's injuries had healed, but Arnold, who felt inadequate about his abilities, decided to travel around the world and increase his knowledge by traveling.He walked through busy towns, through auction houses, through uninhabited forests, and through snow-capped mountains; He inquired about local folklore and huahua from passers-by, he went into the library to read books on various histories and myths, and he explored the caves where the ancients lived.After some experience, Arnold realized that there are different transformations, different inheritances, and different beliefs in the world.Realizing that he is just an ordinary member of the vast sentient beings, not the superior at the top of the pyramid, even if he has the ability to do it, he will be ruthlessly eliminated by the superior.Arnold had the idea of passing on his knowledge, "Maybe it's a good attempt to take in an apprentice." ”At that time, he chose a nearby town to live in, that is, the city of Umur.When he learned that there was a welfare home in the city of Umur, Arnold went on his own to choose his successor.It was an autumn afternoon, and the dead leaves on the trees had long since fallen, and the sides of the Arkham Welfare House were particularly deserted except for the evergreen plants.Nine-year-old Tristhenie was accidentally knocked to the ground by a boy who was much taller and more muscular among his peers, and he looked at the seemingly vicious boy in front of him.He didn't quite understand what he was doing wrong, he was just playing by the sand.He didn't dare to look directly at the boy in front of him, because the name of the nine-year-old boy was Angus.Angus is an isolated person in a welfare home, he grew up in a welfare home, but his body grew like a hormone at the age of eight and became a little giant.Although the older children in the orphanage mocked him for being a freak and ostracized him, he silently endured a lot of ridicule and starback, but he did not refute anyone's accusations.Angus stood in front of Tristne, who was about to cry, staring silently at Tristne's face.Eleven-year-old Jobuterrand came running from a short distance with bright silver-gray hair, and when he saw Tristheny lying on the ground, he immediately put down his detective and rushed to him.Jobuterron stopped between Tristhene and Angus and spread his hands to the sides, trying to stop Angus from harming Tristne.In Tristne's eyes, every time he was bullied, Giobuterrand would appear in time.His back is the most important in Tristne's heart, as reassuring as a relative, but with a hint of adoration; Chobuterrand, because of his sense of justice, couldn't bear to watch the cowardly Tristhene being bullied, so he would stand up every time.
