Chapter 345 Chapter 403 Mental Attack

The cold wind was biting. Anna patted her stiff face and looked into the distance. She saw the city of Creighton covered in silver. Looking at the unevenly layered houses, she looked like a dwarf standing there quietly.

"The 33rd is up." Anna looked at the list in her hand with a heavy heart. 33 families had lost their children in just a few days. The Bureau even offered a huge reward internally, with potions from Stages 3 and 4 as rewards. Among them, exactly There is a recipe for Sequence Nine, which is exactly what Anna needs urgently.

"It turns out that the third stage of the ninth stage of the sequence is called 'The Punisher'. I have found some clues, but my ability is not enough to deal with him. The follower is worse than me, so I can't count on him." After complaining, Anna turned around Walking towards the Bureau of Investigation headquarters, she only hoped that they would take her inference seriously.

After returning to a place with a splendid building complex, Anna greeted people and walked in. The person in charge was an old blond man with a pipe in his hand. Even in his old age, his hair was meticulously taken care of. When he saw When Anna came in, the old man quickly put down the book in his hand and looked at Anna seriously.

"What's wrong? Aren't you going to investigate that messy thing? Is there any result?"

"Mr. TOEFL, it's not a good habit to look at female models during working hours. With your conditions, there should be no shortage of girls. How about sneaking around every day?" Anna complained silently when she saw a magazine called "Coast Time" on the table. The magazine exclusively published by 'District 9' does have its own merits. It is said that it was taken by a new creation called 'camera'. This is an item recently developed by District 9, which can capture a person instantly. Drawn on a piece of paper, it became a hit in the Drav Republic as soon as it was released. Its inventor is still an acquaintance, Master Casca, a new genius from the ninth district. He has the ability to remember photographs and keen mechanical construction skills. Compared with In the past, he used oil paintings and sculptures to record portraits, and he was indeed unique.

"It's fun to be sneaky. Besides, I'm old and my body is not like you young people. What's wrong? Your follower didn't follow you today?" The old man picked up his pipe and took a puff, then leaned back to find some comfort. Lying down in a comfortable position, he looked at Anna with a comfortable expression.

"No, he has been busy selecting team members since he was promoted. At present, it seems that the Investigation Bureau wants him to lead a team, but I don't know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing." Anna pulled up a stool and sat down. Mr. Tofu was pretty good to the team members. He had announced early on that there was no need to stand to report the situation to him.

"It's a pity that you were originally the best candidate, but you refused. I am very optimistic about you, but since you pursue freedom, I won't force you. Everyone will grow up, and that little follower should also realize the importance of responsibility. Sex." Old Tofu said while puffing, and he even took a few sugar cubes from the drawer and handed them to Anna, having already put one in his mouth.

"Thank you. I don't need it. I don't think you should eat that much sugar at your young age. It is said that you have a sweet tooth disease now, which is very painful."

Old Tofu said with a look of enjoyment, "If you don't eat, you won't have to eat anymore. My life was picked up. I just hope that we live until retirement. Well... there is about a month left. By the way, you want What are you reporting to me?"

Anna's eyes drooped when she heard this. There is no tomorrow for extraordinary people. Every extraordinary person doesn't know what tomorrow will be like. Maybe someone who is good today will be gone tomorrow. She immediately remembered the person who always had a smile. Mr. Camus, he is sometimes cold, sometimes calm, and sometimes always smiling. He is caring and cruel. In her opinion, he is a completely changeable and complex person.

"What? You won't tell me? Is it very secretive?" Seeing Anna thinking deeply, Old Tofu reminded her after taking a sip of coffee.

"No, I thought of a person. Combining my previous and current conclusions, I inferred that the other person should be a sealed object, a sealed object with a similar ability to Sequence 11, at least level two or above."

"Are you talking about resuscitation?" Old Tofu became more energetic when he heard this. Not only were they looking, the Adventurers Guild, the Church of the Sun, and the Society for the Protection of Magical Creatures were all looking for traces of the other party, but they couldn't find him at all with extraordinary means. So much so that they suspected that the other party was a makeup artist, but Anna's reminder suddenly made him think of a possibility. The "completely revived sealed object" had autonomous consciousness. They previously ruled out this possibility because a sealed object with autonomous consciousness at least It is a top-level second-level or even first-level sealed object, but there is no record of that sealed object being lost or revived.

"Yes... no matter it is a 'male bloody witch', she can still avoid the prying eyes of makeup artists. This kind of thing that does not conform to the sequence characteristics can only happen to sealed objects, so I infer that the other party is a newly revived sealed object. Compare His previous killing methods, his current methods are more violent. I used my 'soul-inducing lamp' to find some traces before. He climbed up and walked on the ceiling. This is not in line with normal people's behavioral norms. That is, from that time on, Crichton experienced a mass disappearance, and I concluded that he completed his recovery at that time.”

After hearing this, the old man Toofu took a sip from his pipe. The missing people so far are all children, and there are no extraordinary people involved. If the other party is really a first-level sealed object, is there such a covert murder?

"What's the possibility if it's a first-level sealed object?"

"There are three levels of first-level sealed objects, and seven levels of possibilities for second-level sealed items. If it were a first-level sealed item, he wouldn't be able to kill people so covertly, so I infer that his abilities have limitations. Compared to the first-level sealed items, The description of the resuscitation, Level 2 is more in line with his characteristics, and the other party's target is children, we can start from this aspect and set a trap." Anna told her plan, which is also the reason why she came back, the Level 2 seal. Things are still too far away for her. Only major organizations can handle this kind of thing, and even the investigation team has to form a church to some extent.

"How confident are you that the other party is a sealed object?"

"Nine floors..." Anna spoke immediately, and Toofu put down his pipe. After a while, he spoke in a low voice.

"I will report it. As for whether it will attract attention or not, it is not something I can interfere with. After all, there are only thirty-three people missing."

"Mr. Toef, there are now thirty-five people. The police station has received another report and two more cases have disappeared." A middle-aged lady dressed exquisitely in a black uniform walked in. She interrupted Toef and said The information was handed over to TOEFL.

"Children again? What on earth is the other party going to do?" TOEFL didn't care about the lady's interruption. He frowned when he saw two more missing children.

"Please think carefully, I'm leaving first." Seeing TOEFL's thoughts swirling, Anna stood up to leave. She had already said what she needed to say. If what she said was true, it would be a great achievement, at least enough for her to remove the Punisher's demon. The medicine was changed.

As soon as Anna went out, she saw the follower, whose face was red from the cold in the heavy snow. He was standing at the door of the investigation team. After seeing her come out, he trotted over.

"Hi...Ms. Anna, I heard from my team members that you are here. Are you interested in having lunch together?"

Anna was a little helpless when she saw him. She had seen this guy's clinginess and haunting ability during this period. She thought that he would have no time after becoming the squad leader, but it seemed that she was overthinking it.

"Okay, let me ask you, I just want to tell you something." After thinking about it, Anna decided to tell the follower what she had discovered. After all, it was a second-level sealed object, so it was better to stay away.

"my pleasure."

The follower smiled and said, and the two of them rushed to a nearby restaurant. Although there were a large number of missing children, compared with the population base of Creighton City, this disappearance would not cause panic. Anna found a roadside I casually ordered something near the window.

"Have you found the information I asked you to check?" After sitting down, Anna looked at the follower Ogli, and looked over hopefully.

The follower Ogli's face fell, and he spoke with a dark face.

"Due to the Catic City incident, there was a lot of chaos there, and most of the people in the sequence were well hidden, so it was as if they had not been investigated. Therefore, the person who stole your friend's body cannot be found by conventional means. You need to The help of the makeup artist, but the price of the makeup artist..." At this point, Ogli fell silent. The scarcity of makeup artists in the kingdom also led to the high price required for them to predict certain things.

"I know." Anna, who was prepared to leave after hearing this, withdrew her gaze. After he said this, she turned her gaze to the window. At this moment, she found a little boy making a snowman on the road, and she immediately swept the After a few glances, suddenly a pair of bony white claws stretched out from the open sewer and dragged the little boy in instantly. Even the little boy didn't have time to scream. The people around him didn't seem to notice anything. They were looking after themselves. While walking, Anna stood up immediately after witnessing all this.

As if feeling her gaze, in the dark open sewer, a man with red hair, burns on the corners of his mouth, and black eyeshadow around his eyes looked over, and the two looked at each other across the distance.

"Yeah..." Anna suddenly heard harsh laughter coming from her ears. She felt like her head was exploding. Her head was hit by an invisible force, and the soul-inducing lamp hidden beside her suddenly appeared. , instantly pulling Anna into the darkness.

Ogli, the follower who had just finished drinking coffee, just raised his head and found that Anna, who was there just now, was gone. He immediately frowned and looked to the side, but the people around him were talking to themselves, and there was nothing strange at all.

"Uh... I just took a sip of coffee, why is he missing?"

"Bang..." As soon as Ogli finished complaining, Anna, bleeding from all her orifices, suddenly appeared on the stool out of thin air. Her face was extremely pale and she looked very scary. Ogli immediately stood up and looked around cautiously.

"No need to look, he has left. My guess is correct, it is indeed a sealed object." Seeing his behavior, Anna put away her lace handkerchief and wiped her face and spoke in a low voice. She just suffered a mental attack, although It looks miserable, but the problem is not serious. Fortunately, the soul-inducing lamp came out to protect him, otherwise he would be disabled today even if he didn't die.

"What's going on?" Ogli, who felt cold all over after hearing Anna's words, looked at Anna in shock. What happened to Anna just a few seconds ago? What sealed item?

"The disappearance case... was caused by a sealed object, and I can confirm that the other party is fully recovered. This is what I am going to tell you. Stay away from him. This is not a battle we should be involved in." Anna looked at the dyed Hong's handkerchief opened his mouth, and even when he was ready to hide for a while, the red-haired man gave him the ultimate sense of danger.
