Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

At dinner, Miss Diviner returned to 59 Egram Street.

In the past two days, she spent most of her time outside, with the purpose of investigating Walter's traces and joining Backlund's Beyonder circle by the way.

After returning, she found that the atmosphere at home was not quite right, the air seemed to freeze, not only many servants were absent-minded, but even Sophia became stern.

"Miss has something to do with you." The maid said with a serious expression.

Catherine followed and asked curiously, "What happened?"

She still has a little bit of fear for Louise, but she gets along very well with Sophia, there is not much estrangement, and it seems that they are about to become good sisters...

"Edita is dead."

The maid said briefly and opened the living room door.

Edita... Katrin quickly recalled in her mind that thin, ordinary-looking young girl who was a maid she personally selected.

…………

Louise was reading a book... um, she was reading "Stormwind Heights" written by Fors.

Her thoughts lingered a little about the sudden death of an unfamiliar maid.

On the one hand, from the employer's point of view, Louise urged the police to investigate the truth of the case and paid some compensation, which was considered to be quite benevolent... What's more, Edita only worked for her for less than two weeks. There is no emotion, almost equivalent to a stranger.

On the other hand, she was a little angry at the perfunctory attitude of Inspector Wald who came to visit this afternoon. It seemed that if Louise didn't pursue it, they would suppress the matter...

Seeing Miss Diviner coming in, Louise closed the book in her hand... In fact, she hadn't turned the page for several minutes.

"Come back, sit down first, is there anything today?"

Catherine sat obediently on the sofa opposite, straightened her back, and answered truthfully:

"I still haven't heard from Walter, but I have found a clue to an extraordinary party, and I may be able to join it in two days."

Louise didn't make any more comments, she was silent for two seconds, and then continued to ask:

"I guess you've heard of it, so describe Edita."

Catherine has already prepared the draft, and has carefully described all her impressions of Edita in an orderly manner, including the other party's self-recommendation, the details of the interview, and her performance after becoming a maid. She clearly describes a person living in the East District. The image of a young girl in a difficult family but struggling to live.

"That is to say, Edita is not a girl who likes to provoke trouble..." Louise concluded, and then she muttered to herself: "Then why was she brutally murdered?"

I wouldn't hire a servant who likes to cause trouble... Katrin defended herself in her heart, she tried to guess:

"Maybe it was just an accident?"

"After two days of observation, I found that Backlund's eastern district is not much better than Bayam's dock district... Gangs are rampant, people's lives are miserable, chaos and killing are not uncommon..."

Having said that, why does this kind of thing happen to me... The source of Louise's confusion is mainly focused on this issue. She is very aware of her own speciality, and she always keeps a close eye on the events that happen around her. A cautious and speculative.

"Okay, there's nothing else to do, you go to rest."

She instructed Miss Diviner, who got up after hearing the words and exited the living room.

…………

That night, the crimson moon hung high in the air, not covered by clouds, but covered the whole city with a light veil, a time-tested, but enduring haze.

Louise opened her eyes in the darkness, rolled over and got out of bed.

Unexpectedly, she has been promoted to become a "witch", but she still can't escape the fate of the midnight action... But this time she traveled not to kill people, but to do good deeds.

She was going to the eastern district of Backlund, Edita's home, which was the scene of her death... Louise was a little worried about this matter. Whether it was out of guilt or caution, she decided to investigate it herself.

…………

In the era of no electricity, no matter how prosperous a city is, it will show its quietest side every night.

The homeless wandering on the side of the road was so quiet that they didn't want to make any noise.

They have men and women, and they live in the most prosperous city in the Northern Continent. They have no home, no job, and dare not sleep at night, because they are very likely to stay awake because of hunger and cold... This is the Wald Inspectorate The reason for such disregard for Edita's death.

On the Eastside, death may be a good thing.

However, no matter how humble life is, they have the right to pursue freedom and light, even if they have been buried in the soil forever.

Louise walked past these corpse-like people with a blank face, and was not found by any one. In the end, she found Edita's home.

Yes, Edita has a family, she still has parents, and she had a younger brother who was 10 years younger than her before, but he fell ill and died some time ago~www.wuxiamtl.com~ If in the future, this kind of The huts included in the urban development range may live without worries due to demolition, but in this era, they are reluctant to turn on the gas lamps.

The people in the hut haven't slept yet, and there is a faint sound of intermittent sobbing, accompanied by a faint smell of blood.

"Why did Edita die like this? She just found a good job, and she told me that she made a friend two days ago. She finally got a smile on her face. Why was she killed?"

It was a woman's cry, her voice was hoarse, and it sounded like she had been crying for a long time.

Another vicissitudes of life male voice kept comforting.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew open the old window, the middle-aged couple glanced at it, and then the husband got up, walked to the window, and closed it.

In the living room of the hut, several yellow warning lines surrounded an unrecognizable female corpse.

Naturally, this middle-aged couple were Edita's parents. They were in their 40s and had been tortured by life to the point of being old and sad.

The corpse was surrounded by the police to protect the scene, but the couple still lived here, because if they were forced to leave, the two could only be reduced to Backlund late at night like those homeless people outside. the lonely ghost.

The fatal wound was on the neck, and it seemed that he was stabbed to death by a sharp object. The limbs and body were covered with dark red bloodstains, and it was obvious that he was severely tortured after death.

The abdomen was ripped open and all the internal organs were hollowed out...

All, internal organs, were hollowed out...
