Klein and unexpectedly outside nodded: „He has several magical item, perhaps by these things detected, I even suspected, his back has an organization.” 果然……克莱恩并不意外地点了下头:“他有好几件神奇物品,或许是靠这些东西才察觉的,我甚至怀疑,他的背后有个组织。” Otherwise light/only depends on Eye of Wisdom strength, even spent more than 30 years of time, is still unlikely to collect several relative powerful magical item, beforehand Vice Admiral Hurricane Klingus, as one of the seven great pirate admirals, only Hunger's Squirming, naturally, the latter may be the vision be high, cannot have a liking for general magical item, after all can achieve comprehensively by Hunger's Squirming, and no weakness. 否则光靠“智慧之眼”本身的力量,即使花费了三十多年的时光,也不太可能搜集到好几件相对强力的神奇物品,之前的“飓风中将”齐林格斯,作为七大海盗将军之一,也仅有一件“蠕动的饥饿”,当然,后者更有可能是眼光高,看不上一般的神奇物品,毕竟靠“蠕动的饥饿”就可以做到全面且没什么弱点。 Un, Eye of Wisdom very richly is also the reasonable explanation, organizes so many meetings, discovered that appropriate magical item does not count the price to take, more than 30 years pass by, several collection not too unthinkable things...... yeah, this is in the family/home has the ore, or opened the rhythm of bank......

Sequence Seven, 'Serial Killer', grasped many knowledge and ceremonies that worships Devil, like trying to please Devil with the special series murder case...... 序列9,“罪犯”,有着强壮的身体,敏锐的直觉和各种犯罪能力,但良知还未泯灭……序列8,古称“冷血者”,现代名称是“折翼天使”,意思是从此失去良知,与恶欲同流,身体更加非人,并能得到些恶魔的类法术能力……序列7,“连环杀手”,掌握了崇拜恶魔的诸多知识和仪式,喜欢用特殊的连环杀人案取悦恶魔…… In the future sequence, I do not know that was anything...... 再往后的序列,我就不知道是什么了…… About Blood Worshiping Cult, the knowledge about Devil path flashes through in Klein mind one by one, outside drizzle seemed big a point, the rainwater in glass gathered is falling downward, the whole world therefore became peaceful, became insufficiently clear. 关于拜血教,关于恶魔途径的知识在克莱恩脑海一一闪过,外面的细雨似乎大了一点,车窗上的雨水汇聚着往下滑落,整个世界都因此变得安静,变得不够清晰。 „I think that so many make anything, this matter will definitely have the Extraordinary squad to take over, perhaps is Justice Enforcer, perhaps is Night Watcher, does not need me to be worried.” Klein shakes the head to laugh in spite of trying not, was muttering one at heart. “我想这么多做什么,这种事情肯定会有非凡者小队接手,也许是代罚者,也许是值夜者,不需要我担心。”克莱恩摇头失笑,在心里咕哝了一句。 When returns to 15 Minsk Street, after he already that case threw into the brain a moment ago, first to the next door knocked the front door of Sammer, asking Mrs. Starling to forward to Mary, making her take the evidence tomorrow afternoon, then washing read a newspaper, understood the current situation and Beckland various news. 回到明斯克街15号时,他已经把刚才那起案子抛到了脑后,先是到隔壁敲了萨默尔家的大门,请斯塔琳太太转给玛丽,让她明天下午来拿证据,接着洗漱看报,了解当前的局势和贝克兰德的各种新闻。 Next day, is Saturday in the morning, Klein has used the breakfast slowly, goes out picture that took just to develop, chose one most to see clearly Dracu Geyl and Erica Taylor face, most can manifest them to resemble the fire to be warm. 第二天,也就是周六上午,克莱恩慢悠悠用过早餐,出门取了刚洗出来的照片,挑选了一张最能看清楚多拉古.盖尔和艾丽卡.泰勒脸庞,最能体现他们似火热情的。 Puts away the picture, he snatches before Mrs. Mary visits, went to the Rice station house, wanted that 10 pounds bail smoothly. 放好照片,他抢在玛丽太太上门前,又去了趟莱斯警察分局,顺利要回了那十镑的保释金。 In this process, he still saw true Sheriff Fasin there, is a little not quite comfortable. 这个过程中,他还在那里看见了真正的法辛警长,颇有点不自在。 After taking out in the account the remaining 500 pounds cash, bustled about entire morning Klein finally nothing. 取出账户里剩下的500镑现金后,忙碌了整整一个上午的克莱恩终于没什么事情了。 Before preparing the lunch, he gave the bodyguard the young lady the remaining 600 pounds expenses, oneself body amounts to also remains 146 pounds 8 shilling 5 pennies, this is the entire fortune that he can use. 准备午餐前,他一口气将剩下的600镑费用给了保镖小姐,自己身上总计还剩146镑八苏勒五便士,这是他可以动用的全部财产。 Except that Miss Justice there, no debt...... Klein relaxed fried the beef steak of belt/bring bone to oneself, and in pouring black pepper juice. 除了“正义”小姐那里,没什么债务了……克莱恩放松地给自己煎了块带骨的牛排,并浇上了黑胡椒汁。 When he tastes seven points of ripe taste happy, the doorbell was sounded suddenly, sound of continuous reverberation ding dong. 正当他心情不错地品尝七分熟的口感时,门铃突然被人拉响,叮叮当当之声连绵回荡。 „Mrs. Mary?

Klein to sweep such a, then had roughly drawn the conclusion. 这位老绅士的身体还算健康,左腿关节的气场颜色有点问题,大概是关节炎……情绪以冷静思考的蓝色为主,带着点焦虑……克莱恩只是扫了那么一眼,便已大致得出了结论。 Mill Carter carries the pure white porcelain cup, strokes gently the outer layer saying: 米勒.卡特端起洁白的瓷杯,摩挲着外层道: „Matter is this, I bought a house in Williams Street , I come from Midsea County, because of the reason of business, later will settle down in Beckland.” “事情是这样的,我在威廉姆斯街买了栋房屋,呵,我来自间海郡,因为生意的缘故,以后将定居于贝克兰德。” Williams Street...... where?
