Chapter 270 "The True Murderer"

"It's time to eat!" Klein put down the last dish of cream soup and said with a smile:

"There are still a lot of ingredients, but to prevent the dishes ahead from getting cold, let's eat these first."

"Yeah!" Fors, who had changed into a long skirt, had no objection at all. She had now completely accepted the fact that she was a cooking idiot and stopped struggling! Yeah, Xio was exactly the same! Not even as good as me!

“Okay, thank you for your hard work, Klein! Well, to repay you, I will leave Fors with you today! It’s just the two of us in our world…” Xio said generously as he picked up the bread.

"..." Klein's smile froze. Fortunately, he controlled his hand that was holding the soup in time and placed the bowl steadily in front of the two people.

"Hush!" Fors's face flushed and he said:

"Klein, you know, serial killers are rampant recently. The Aurora Society even murdered a psychiatrist at a clinic...

"Xiu is very scared. She thinks that we two weak women might not be safe, so she wants to stay with you temporarily..."

Xio curled his lips and read: "Yes, yes, I was so scared that I couldn't sleep at night."

Klein said righteously:

"Don't worry, I'm only a dozen minutes away from St. Samuel's Church, so I can definitely guarantee your safety! Come and stay here with peace of mind! I just think such a big house would be too empty for one person to live in.

"Have you moved your luggage? Tomorrow is Monday and I have a day off. Can I help you move all your stuff? Well, I recently got a very convenient sealing object that can put large items into small bags... It's like a moving artifact."

"Ah? There is such a convenient thing?" Xio was surprised for a moment, then his eyes lit up and he said:
"Can you show me how to do it?"

"Of course!" Klein took out a black coin bag and walked to the large sofa in the living room. He suddenly had an idea and bowed to the two people like a circus magician. He showed his empty left hand with an exaggerated expression, then the coin bag in his right hand. Then he snapped his fingers with his left hand, snapping! Then the sofa disappeared, leaving only four marks on the carpet to prove that there was something there just now.

"Wow!" Xio clapped his hands excitedly and asked, "How did you do that? What kind of ability is this? Did you use that coin bag to do it? Can you put a cannon in it? Can you put a person in it?"

Fors was in a daze for a moment. This thing... a traveler's bag? I have rubbed several of them with my hands! Hmm? Is that the name?
Klein smiled and put the sofa back to its original place. He returned to the dining table and said:
"I call it 'Traveler's Bag'. It can't hold living things. Maybe a cannon can be used? But I don't think I can lift that big thing..."

“It’s amazing!” Fors exclaimed, both for the ability of the pocket and for her own ability to predict the future.

"It's really amazing!" Xio hesitated and said:
"Klein, where did you buy it? Or did you make it yourself? Does the 'Fortune Teller' have this ability?"

"It looks like the ability of an 'apprentice'... Of course, the sequence must be much higher, which involves space!" Fors corrected.

Klein agreed:

"It should be the ability of the 'Apprentice' path. This is what Old Blue gave me. He said he obtained it in a certain adventure..."

"...Klein, are you and Old Blue really not related by blood?!" Xio asked with his eyes wide open.

"..." Fors nodded in surprise. They were also from Tingen, and the old man took such special care of Klein. It was hard not to make associations!
Klein paused and said with emotion:
“We are indeed not related by blood, but in my heart I have long regarded Old Blue as an elder in the family.

“Emperor Roselle once said that if you have an old man in your family, it is like having a treasure.

"Old Blue is such a person. His presence will give you a feeling that no matter what happens, as long as he is still there, the problem can be solved..." "Well, my hometown is Tingen, and Tingen is where Old Blue is. It is the safest place... This gives me a strong sense of security. I don't have to worry about the safety of my family, so I can feel at ease in Backlund..."

Fors nodded in agreement. Even though Old Blue had a fatal wound on his neck, he was still standing and chatting and laughing with everyone... If I really had to find a word to describe him, it would only be "monster"!
"The safest place?" Xio thought of his mother and brother who were hiding in another place, and whispered:
"It's true that Backlund is not very safe right now... But if father... I still want my family to return to Backlund..."

"It will definitely work!" Fors encouraged her friend and said:

"Before bringing my family here, we must catch the latest murderer! And the Aurora Society!"

Klein heard this and took over the conversation:
"Has the Mandated Punisher taken over the murder case? How is the progress?"

Xio took the initiative to say:
"I heard from other Punishers that Storm will definitely be involved in the investigation of the Aurora Society...but the focus will be on the 'psychologist' who just died, not the ordinary woman who was killed before...

"Yes, almost everyone saw that the cases were separate and the murderers were different, but everyone ignored this, as if the two previous victims were so easily forgotten..."

Klein was silent for a while and said:

"I will use my off-duty time to investigate. I promise that the victim will not be forgotten, and I promise that the real murderer will pay the price."

Xio was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said:

"Why are you trying to be cool with me? Fors is right next to you, so you can talk to her."

Fors held his forehead and said:

"Xiu, what are you talking about in such a serious occasion?"

Klein laughed and invited the two to enjoy dinner.

……

"Enjoy your dinner." "Apostle of Desire" Patrick Jason let go of the black dog, allowing it to pounce on a woman in a gorgeous long dress in the distance, tear open her abdomen and eat her internal organs.

He licked his lips unconsciously and said to himself, "What a rude dog... But it should be enough to divert the official's attention for me when the time comes. Eat, eat."

……

"How rude and inelegant... Ahfu is much better than it." Old Blue stood on a high place, looking down at the flesh and blood puppet he made being knocked down, and muttered to himself.

"Hey! Who can be as elegant as you in doing something like 'eating people'?" Xiao Fu, who was wearing a golden long skirt and elbow-length white gauze gloves, complimented.

"...Xiao Fu, there are some things you can't flatter. You're flattering the horse right now." Old Blue shook his head and continued:

"Afu misses you very much. We are sending someone to Avalon Island this time. How about you go?"
