Chapter 364 The Murderer Faceless
If Duke Negan could still speak at this time, he would probably be very confused and even curse:
"If you don't shout for help when I'm alive, what's the point of shouting for help after I'm dead? To save ghosts?"
In addition, Louise also had the same idea. After she heard the maid lady's scream for help, she felt a little downtime in her head for the first time. She looked at the maid lady with a dull look, or maybe
Adam, just asked:
"Who are you from?"
However, she had no chance to ask, because with the help of the maid, the door to the living room was slammed open from the outside.
The blond secretary rushed to the front, and the panicked "Louise" was reflected in the child's eyes, as well as Duke Negan, whose eyes were protruding and his face was pale and bloodless, lying on the ground like a puddle of mud.
"Mr. Duke is dead!"
This was the common thought of all the Beyonder guards who broke in. It was difficult to accept this fact for a while.
The blond secretary was about to ask something, but suddenly turned his head and glanced fiercely at a corner of the living room. At the same time, he raised his right hand and said majestically:
"Show up."
As soon as she finished speaking, Louise's careful thoughts of escaping fell short. Although her invisibility state still existed, her figure was unexpectedly exposed to everyone's sight.
"Another 'Louise'!" The low-sequence Beyonders crowded at the door were a little confused. Their eyes glanced back and forth between the two "Louise" in different states.
Naturally, the blond secretary would not be so superficial. He asked loudly:
"'Faceless Man'! Why did you want to assassinate Mr. Duke?"
How could he be sure that I was a "faceless man"... Louise was even stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought of something, she couldn't help but curled her lips in her heart, and said secretly:
"Your acting experience is a bit poor!"
Then, she opened her mouth and made a voice that was not her own at all. She deliberately laughed twice and glanced at everyone in the room with a sinister look, causing everyone to shiver down their backs and even step back.
Half step.
The real Louise licked her lips exaggeratedly, and finally withdrew her gaze from the "Louise" pretended by the maid. Without hesitation, she immediately turned around and rushed to the floor-to-ceiling window in an attempt to escape.
Naturally, the blond secretary could not let the murderer of Mr. Duke go so easily. He immediately clasped his hands together and said:
"Closed."
At the same time, the "Windwinder" guard sent by the "Church of Storms" to protect Duke Negan sat down and confirmed that Mr. Duke had completely lost his life breath. He reluctantly took off the conch necklace from his neck.
Sounded loudly.
"The Archbishop will be here soon." He said, stood up and stood in line with the blond secretary, looking sternly at Louise, who had a gloomy expression on her face.
"Are you sure you want to stop me?" Louise said in a hoarse voice, her gloomy eyes showing a strange light.
The blond secretary and the "Windwinder" guard looked like they were facing a powerful enemy and were ready for battle. As a result, Louise, who had just shown an unruly attitude, suddenly turned around, punched the glass on the window, and jumped without hesitation.
Go down.
The guard of "Windwinder" looked a little dull. He turned his head stiffly and asked:
"How did she escape?"
The blond secretary looked solemn and replied:
"The power of 'twisting'."
The two of them did not continue chasing because there was no need and they could not catch up with a "faceless man" in a big city like Backlund.
The blond secretary silently turned his gaze behind him and looked at "Louise" who was hiding behind the guards and looked obviously panicked.
…………
A longer time passed than expected, and Ace Snake, the "Singer of God", finally arrived at the villa where the incident occurred, carrying a gust of wind.
However, what everyone did not expect was that following the Archbishop of the "Church of Storms" were two other demigod Archbishops.
First, a demigod from the "Rose School" was brutally hunted, and then Duke Negan was assassinated at about the same time. It seemed a bit too coincidental... And coincidences in the extraordinary world can sometimes have many meanings. , so the three archbishops chose to rush to the villa together.
After understanding the whole process of the incident, Ace Snake's face was gloomy, as if a violent storm was brewing, and he faintly felt a breeze appearing in the room, even accompanied by the fluctuation of the waves.
Saint Anthony of the "Church of the Night" raised his head and pressed it gently, facing Duke Negan's blond secretary, and asked aloud:
"Are you sure that the murderer who successfully assassinated Mr. Duke was a 'faceless man'?"
The blond secretary nodded slightly and replied seriously:
"The murderer turned into Miss Louise and used the 'Spirit Thread' to completely turn Mr. Duke into a marionette. Only then did the real Miss Louise notice the abnormality, and the latter shouted for help. We are Only in this way can the identity of the murderer be confirmed."
Archbishop Anthony did not refute. He had already inspected Duke Negan's body and found that it was indeed the method of a "divineer" through the extraordinary. He said thoughtfully:
"I remember that Duke Negan was hunting down two members of the 'Secret Order' recently. It is said that they stole something belonging to Mr. Duke. Is this true?"
The blond secretary answered truthfully: "Yes, Mr. Duke has been worried about this matter recently, so he suddenly changed his schedule today and ordered me to invite Miss Louise to have dinner here, but I didn't expect..."
He glanced at Duke Negan's body and did not continue.
Archbishop Horamik Haydon of the "Church of the God of Steam and Machinery" took a step forward, called Louise, who was still a little scared, to come over, and asked calmly:
"Tell me, how did Duke Negan die?"
"Louise" thought about it for two seconds and said hesitantly: "I'm not sure either."
"We were chatting at the time, and the atmosphere was relaxed and harmonious, but suddenly Duke Negan fell into silence... I thought I had said something wrong, so I asked out loud, but I still didn't get a reply from Mr. Duke, and then I lightly I pushed him lightly, and Mr. Duke suddenly collapsed to the ground!"
The story is complete and normal, with nothing to fault...it's obviously the method of the "Secret Puppet Master", and Duke Negan is old and only a Sequence Six, so the chance of resistance is very small.
Horamik Haydn did not continue to ask, but instead sighed and said:
Chapter completed!
