I am Anna-Glee? Ah, the road never imagined... "Fool!" Then she heard Xia Yibing scolding Ethan. "Think about Pete's mummy! Even if she was still alive and was found, she couldn't still be this age and look this way!" Call ~ Hitzfeld breathed a sigh of relief. "I mean, it's very much like some kind of exchange ritual." "Have you forgotten? There was indeed a similar case before. In order to get their loved ones back, they were willing to surrender to the evil god and prepare sacrifices that were similar in gender, age, appearance, and body shape to their loved ones..." "Are you sure?"
Turning suddenly, Hitzfeld stared at her. Even though she had unravelled the truth about the lady's behaviour. Even though she was sure she had made an unforgivable mistake. But she still didn't dare to think about it. Those were the days. Those scenes of getting along and teaching. All just for... a sacrifice? "The general steps of the sacrifice are written here." Xia Yibing turned the big book over so that it was facing her. "This is ancient Sarai. I happened to have taken a course on this subject in college, so I can understand it a little bit." "The content includes golem making." "The process of the living sacrifice." "Awakening ceremony." "There is also a way to communicate with the evil god." "So we have to be inseparable, Hitzfeld." Seeing the color quickly draining from the girl's face, Xia Yibing just shook her head slightly. "Suppose—I mean suppose—" "If she really achieves her goal, which is to assist the Eclipse Church in restarting the curse and resummoning the Golem God." "Then she will definitely come back to find you."

Thanks for the support! ps: I mixed up the two days' list and posted it together. When I checked the backend, I found that the list on the 5th was not counted as yesterday! It took me half a day to copy the list from the 7th day, so it's a bit late and it's not very clear~ Chapter 52: District Head The fireworks released by Xia Yibing did not just have the effect of "dissuading people from going away". The three of them had been in the cellar for less than ten minutes when Hitzfeld heard rustling noises coming from above. "Don't be nervous." The black-haired female detective stretched out her hand to her, motioning her to stay calm. "It's most likely one of ours." In fact, it was true. When two men in black uniforms and peaked caps emerged from the corridor with pistols in hand, the three people in the cellar breathed a sigh of relief. "Captain!" One of them immediately came over after seeing Xia Yibing. This was a young man with brown curly hair, about twenty-five years old. His height of over meters forced him to bend down slightly to stand steadily after entering the cellar. Hitzfeld studied his attire, noting that the all-black uniform was identical to the one she had seen in the photograph—the one Ivan had worn. Black clothes, peaked cap, long leather boots, shoulder belt, and of course the indispensable holster at the waist, a very standard police look. "do not come!" But Xia Yibing was much more cautious than she thought. "Mu Ke...you need to tell us something that only we know to prove that you are Mu Ke." "Ethan likes to collect Candy Earl stamps." The young man answered without hesitation, "Every denomination, every pose, even the most eye-catching bunny girl uniforms, he has them—" "Enough!" Ethan stopped him with a grim look on his face, and then started coughing again because of the rupture of his wound. "Ahem... that's because they have extremely high collection value... ahem... I'm not interested in Earl Candy himself!" The two young policemen who came in later suddenly burst into laughter. The other one wearing glasses deliberately bent down and ran to Ethan's side, poking his bandage from time to time. “When you find that an area is likely to be associated with words like pollution, evil, and curse, you should be wary of those who have separated from you.” While the girl was in a daze, Xia Yibing reached out and touched her head twice. Soft hair, with a little bit of her body temperature. It feels really good. "Even if you know them and know they are your friends, anything can happen in the corrupted area." After a brief interlude, the two new detectives introduced themselves to Hitzfeld very formally.
"Sara Kingdom Secret Police Force, Squad 17, Autopsy Officer Muko." "Information Agent Zafira." "We are one of the few official members recognized by the captain. It's a pleasure to actually meet you, Miss Hitzfeld." "Oh...I am...very happy..." After shaking hands with the two men, Hitzfeld heard the noise above becoming increasingly noisy. "They should all be here." Zafira had silver hair, and when he turned around the girl saw that he had a long braid at the back of his head. He liked to push his glasses up every once in a while while he spoke, as he was repeating now. "We knew the captain would need backup when we saw the pink flare." "But it just so happened that soon after the flare appeared, all the mobs fell down." "Fallen?" Xia Yibing asked. "Yes... It's like a scene in a play. Someone uncovers the puppeteer's trick and all the puppets on the stage fall down." This shows that the enemy did not list 12 Flo Street as a target. After looking at the girl again, Xia Yibing began to ask for more details. "The Cathedral was attacked..." "Kangana Frick led the Flint Knights back to provide assistance." "The 19th, 38th, and 39th squads are also heading over there. With the Cult and the city defense troops stationed there, it shouldn't be a problem for them to hold on." "Also, Captain...we have another surprise for you." In order to see this "surprise", Hitzfeld followed these people out of the cellar. It wasn't that she didn't want to stay, after all, there were still many books and notes on those bookshelves. She also wanted to take a closer look at the spinning wheel and the lathe-like machine to try to find out the secret of ink. But apparently that's no longer allowed. When she came up, she saw the yard was full of police officers. They were not the gray-clad policemen under Sheriff Rand. Instead, each of them wore a pure black uniform similar to Mu Ke and Zafira, holding guns and pulling fierce dogs. "Aw! Aww!" "You go over there... and over here!" "Ooooooooo!" "Send some cardboard and cinders, we need to get rid of the body, God, it stinks..."
Cold face. The barking of police dogs. There was also the light of a flashlight sweeping back and forth in the darkness. Hitzfeld had never felt that the combination of these elements could be so reassuring. Under the gaze of a group of people, Zafira returned to the house and the living room. He asked a few people to sit on the sofa and wait, and then he ran out alone. After a while, he walked in holding the hand of a boy, and the sharp-eyed Hitzfeld immediately recognized that it was Joey. Joey looked miserable. His hair was stuck together by sweat, and when it dried it became wisps, like it had been waxed. His elbows, knees, and clothes on one side of his body were covered in dust and dirt, and he was desperately biting a biscuit with his other hand. "He has been missing since the last Eternal Night." Zafira said, pointing at the boy. "His parents left home that night and looked for him everywhere but couldn't find him. We found him in the drugstore across the street tonight." "pharmacy?" Hitzfeld glared at Joey. Eternal Night has been missing since last time. That was the night she and Ethan killed the Nightmare Man, and also the night she questioned the boy in the temple? Didn’t he promise not to run around? ...No wonder she didn’t find anyone at their house at that time! "Sister Hitzfeld..." When Joey saw her, tears immediately fell. "Come." Zafira poked him in the head. "Repeat what you just said." "It's just... I wanted to go home immediately." Joey kept staring at the girl as he spoke. "Then... I remembered that my father's hand was scratched by the rope during the day, so I wanted to go to Dr. Griman to get some medicine." "Then... I went to the store, but no one was inside." "Then I thought Dr. Grimman was out for something, so I wanted to get the medicine first and then pay him back later." "As a result, he heard some noise outside not long after he entered. He thought it was Griman who came back, but he found out it was a complete stranger."
Zafira couldn't stand his efficiency and finished what he said in one breath. "He was smart enough to roll over and hide under the bed. He then watched the man enter the bedroom, turn a vase, and open a secret door behind a bookshelf. He then walked in." "He tried to escape immediately, but the bedroom door was locked. He was trapped there and survived until today with very little food and water." "After that, we searched the pharmacy and forced our way in after finding the secret door. We discovered a large number of beddings and traces of human habitation in the underground secret room. We can basically conclude that this is a base of the Sunflower Rebels. The doctor named Grimman is a major suspect." "About what time did that person go in?" Ethan asked quietly interjecting.
