"I don't want to believe my analysis, but the fact is... Madam may have been contaminated."
Under the dim light, the girl told the two Shadow Lion agents the analysis she had made not long ago step by step.
"I saw her account of her daughter in that manuscript. Anna-Gree was not sold to the slums at all. The baby you tracked down at the time might have been her misleading."
"Ivan-Gree's corpse was transformed into a nightmare man. This incident is also related to her."
"Taking all the evidence together, I have reason to believe that the lady has some connection with the Eclipse Church that you are investigating."
"So your concern about the Eclipse Cult obtaining information about the curse from 12 Flo Street is completely meaningless."
"You keep thinking they will act in the next Eternal Night. This is sheer hubris."
"If Madam is one of them, then they would have obtained the relevant information long ago."
"All current actions against 12 Flo Street are misleading you."
"Their real target is only the Xieyang Stone Carving. They chose to take action tonight instead of the Eternal Night. They hope to use this misleading method to force you to mobilize the defense forces of the Cathedral to come here."
"This way they can mobilize superior forces to attack the Cathedral."
"...destroy the Xie Yang stone carving on the bell tower!"
"..."
"..."
“It’s very scary.”
After a brief silence, Ethan made his comment with a wooden face.
Yes... this makes sense... because if the organization knew that Anna was also in the group at that time, it would be a big deal.
Lilith-Gree had already killed her husband with her own hands, and she didn't want to repeat it to her children anyway.
"She is betting..." Xia Yibing's face was very cold, "She is betting that the young baby has no memory at all, and will completely forget all information related to the curse as he grows up."
Maybe it was just as the lady thought at the beginning. She kept it a secret and brought Anna-Gree up safely.
But no one can guarantee that the girl has completely forgotten the memory of that time.
For many people, when they grow up, some kind of stimulation may cause a long-forgotten memory from childhood to emerge.
No one can guarantee that Anna won't be like this.
Even Xia Yibing is now certain that this must have happened to Anna-Glie, which means that when Shadow Lion discovered her talent and absorbed her into the organization, she had already been polluted!
"I'm going to send a message now." Xia Yibing stood up suddenly and paused when she pulled the door handle.
"Don't be afraid of alarming her."
Hitzfeld added.
"If everything is as I suppose, then the lady should not be in the house now."
Xia Yibing looked at her deeply, then ran downstairs. Soon, she saw a bunch of brilliant fireworks bursting out outside.
At the same time, dozens of jeeps were driving on Denver Avenue leading to the Bridge Street area.
"what is that?"
The driver at the front raised his eyebrows as he stared at the fireworks in the night sky.
"The red rose flare."
The man next to him frowned slightly.
"Pink... it means 'stand back, there is danger'."
"What kind of danger can there be in Flo Street?" The driver said with a smile, "Those guys with their eyes almost growing on their heads look down on us every day. We should be careful not to miss the opportunity to make meritorious deeds."
"Turn around."
"…Captain Frick?"
"You must trust the judgment of your allies. The place in danger may not be Flo Street, but may also be the Cathedral."
The man's face was very serious.
"Notify everyone, let's go back!"
……
"The message has been sent."
Three minutes later, the woman returned to the room.
"I searched the whole house and she wasn't there."
"…What do you want to do next?"
The tone showed full respect to the girl, because the surprises the other party gave her were too many and too big.
Before she was awakened, she was like a baby animal, cute yet confused, and alert, making people want to stroke her head when they saw her.
After being awakened, he quickly grew to this level.
The reason why she made "sending a signal" a condition was because she was afraid of being gossiped about by others, right?
She was afraid that Ethan and I would not trust her judgment, which would lead to delay and allow the Eclipse Church's conspiracy to succeed.
At that time, we hadn't examined the mechanical golem yet, and she was just suspicious, lacking the most crucial evidence to prove her judgment.
She dared to say those words.
How confident is this...
"Now I want to prove my reasoning thoroughly."
Hitzfeld held the bottle of red ink in his hand and a pile of books and notes in his arms.
Those were the manuscripts and documents she brought back that were related to the curse.
"No matter where the lady went, she couldn't have taken so many items in such a short time."
"I want you to escort me to the cellar."
"It's about whether we can quickly unravel all the mysteries."
Chapter 51: Sacrifice
Hitzfeld felt like he was entering a magical state.
In this state, she was very calm and could think about problems as rationally as possible.
I am physically weak.
Limited combat effectiveness.
No matter what happens in the cathedral - or even outside, I don't need to care too much.
Everything will naturally be handled by the Shadow Lions and the Jiyang Cult. If all else fails, there is also the Uzumaki Slanting Mirror Cutting Lai Mu Yin.
What I should really do is...
While I don't have to face my wife now, I will do my best to help Shadow Lion uncover the truth.
"Is this the cellar you were talking about?"
Entering the yard, pushing aside the bushes and coming to the front of the shed, Xia Yibing sniffed her nose hard.
"I seem to smell some nostalgia..."
Hitzfeld was walking behind, supporting Ethan, and frowned slightly when he heard this.
Just as she was about to say something, she saw a huge shadow trembling on the top of the shed.
"Whoosh!" A shadow swooped down.
"Beware!"
"Zheng——"
The whistles, screams, and the sounds of metal clashing rang out almost simultaneously.
Hitzfeld only felt a flash before his eyes, and the huge shadow was split into two by a white light, and two corpses gushing pus and blood suddenly appeared, falling to the ground with a "clatter".
Looking closely, it was actually a gigantic insect monster. Its body, which was split into two parts, was covered with black, yellow and green stripes, which looked dazzling and deadly.
"Dream-eating spider."
Feeling the girl's body trembling slightly, Ethan reluctantly led her forward and tried to introduce her in a normal, casual tone.
"If you become overly attached to certain items and have nightmares about them being taken away, there is a chance that such a monster will be born from that nightmare."
"Don't be afraid... Hitzfeld, this is a very common nightmare."
"Dream-eating spiders are nightmares born out of 'concern.'" Xia Yibing looked at the two insect corpses still twitching in the grass, "So they have a strong sense of territory. After they are born, they will stay next to the objects they are concerned about and are unwilling to leave."
"Seeing this thing basically proves that your reasoning is accurate."
"The cellar is indeed important, so important that she would split off such a nightmare to guard it."
"Split……?"
Hitzfeld suppressed his nausea and forced himself to look away from the insect corpse.
"What do you mean...Wouldn't the descendants of the Corruption Birth Nightmare die?"
"That's for ordinary people." The woman shook her head. "When extraordinary people learn to control their own power, the growth of their souls will lead to a rapid increase in their life essence. When this increase reaches a certain level, they don't need to sacrifice their lives. Just having nightmares can split nightmares."
"Normally this won't happen, because after learning how to control spirits, extraordinary people can control themselves from having nightmares. Only those evil extraordinary people will consciously indulge themselves in splitting nightmares."
"That white light just now...?"
Hitzfeld's eyes fell on Xia Yibing's hand.
Now, her hands hang naturally at her sides.
But just now, Hitzfeld vaguely caught that she made a movement similar to drawing a sword, and then the white light appeared.
What's the situation?
She was 100% sure that she had nothing in her hands at the time.
"Hitzfeld..." Ethan coughed, "Don't worry about it for now, we will explain it to you later..."
"Ah."
With a simple "hmm", the girl raised her eyes to look at Xia Yibing.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the woman at this moment seemed to be surrounded by a bleak and sad atmosphere.
After killing the Nightmare guarding the cellar, the three of them went down the stairs to the underground.
Everything was arranged no differently than what Hitzfeld had seen before.
There was only one difference - the petite body on the third bed was gone.
"I now doubt her motive for picking you up, Hitzfeld..."
Standing by the table, flipping through the "funeral book" that the girl had read a few pages of, Xia Yibing's expression became more and more solemn.
"What's the motive?"
Hitzfeld was buried in the bookshelf, and it was Ethan who asked this question.
The girl breathed a sigh of relief.
She told them almost all her reasoning.
The only thing he didn't tell was that she was dug out of the grave by the lady...
"Anna Gure's death - I will assume it was death - took place on November 11, the last day of Ramadan."
"She lost her beloved on that day, and then on November 11 of this year, she got Hitzfeld back."
"Plus, they are the same age, the same gender, and very similar in height and build."
"Don't you think this is all too coincidental?"
"What you mean is," Ethan sat down against the wall with difficulty, "she is not dead at all. The so-called 'Amnesiac Esuen Hitzfeld' is Anna Grey who disappeared that year?"
No way……
In the back, Hitzfeld's eyes widened as he listened.
