Login with GoogleChapter 51 Lock each other, the second round!
Roger was thinking.
The officers of the City Defense Force are very capable. If I delay a few minutes to visit the injured friend, it will not affect the investigation of the case, right?
We are working for Her Majesty, not slaving for her. As long as we only waste a few minutes and don't truly delay the investigation, who can fault us?
Someone in the ward responded, "Come in," and Roger pushed open the door.
On the white hospital bed, little Joey was reading "Long Live the Queen".
After the Eternal Night Queen expelled the divine power erosion, the healing techniques could restore those traumatic injuries.
Leaving the officers in the sanatorium here is for observation and recuperation, and it is also a kind of surveillance, in case there are disguised believers among them.
Little Joey read the newspaper and learned that there was more than one attack in the mysterious capital last night.
It turned out that not only did she lose her comrades in the explosion, but there were also countless big people and ordinary people who lost their relatives in the explosion...
She is very much a pure combat soldier, not good at intrigue and analysis of the overall situation.
Seeing the fire's of war burning into the core of the empire, she felt exceptionally ashamed.
"When the true murderer is found, I will go to the front line to take revenge!" She clenched her fists tightly.
"I won't make you wait too long."
A clear voice resounded from the door.
Roger dressed in the uniform of the commander-in-chief of the city defense station, his medal shining brightly, suddenly appeared in front of little Joey.
The already handsome man now has the halo of a high-ranking official, which is simply dazzling.
"Master Dio, are you all right?" Little Joey didn't even bother to wear her shoes, she rushed from the bed to him barefoot.
But when she got a step ahead of Roger, she stood still abruptly.
Although they have experienced fatal danger together, this is not her comrade-in-arms.
Hugs when we meet, isn't it very ladylike? Will you be despised?
Roger noticed her embarrassment, looked at the bravery that was about to die out on the girl's face, and sighed.
He opened his arms and embraced her.
"Thank you for saving me yesterday."
"I, I did what I should do!"
Little Joey felt that her face was so hot that it could fry an egg.
So happy!
Even if it was a courtesy hug from Lord Roger, it could be considered a staged victory!
Roger patted her on the back, let her go, and asked her to lie back on the bed to rest and speak slowly.
He asked about her physical condition, and how she felt here, and she asked what he was doing now...
Suddenly there was no topic.
The two had limited understanding of each other, and they had little communication in their past lives, so they couldn't find a topic for awkward chats.
It displays that there is no reason to be greedy...
Roger bid them farewell.
"Are you looking for the real murderer of blood night? I want to follow you!" Little Joey was a little reluctant.
"Didn't you just say you were going to kill the enemy on the front line? The city defense army didn't have this chance."
Her face turned red again.
She scolded herself in her heart, little Joey, you can't do this!
But when the words came to her mouth, it turned into: "I... I just want to follow you anyway!"
Roger pondered for a while, then tentatively said: "You want to follow me, then don't come to the city defense army, go to the Charles Mansion to find a guard commander?"
Dio's identity should "die for the country" soon. If he wants to be a playful young master, a beautiful lady guard is also very suitable, isn't it?
"Okay, okay, thank you sir for taking it in!"
Little Joey nodded in agreement.
Roger took a long time before he asked suspiciously, "Aren't you afraid that I will sell you if you are so simple?"
Little Joey answered confidently: "If you want to follow, you must believe in the character of adults!"
He was a little beaten, and waved his hand and left the ward.
Maybe, this is the so-called fate, right?
From the perspective of God, Roger's arrangement just happened to avoid the Queen's blockade of little Joey...
This is a big enough fate.
…
…
The background checks on the officers involved in the bombings were quickly concluded.
After retrieving their operational memorandum from the military, Roger successfully pinpointed the real culprit behind the capital's bloody night.
Church of the Goddess of War.
The lieutenant colonel who repaired the knife to Prize, as well as the officer who blew himself up at the celebration banquet, all asked for supplies from the Church of the Goddess of War.
And most of their action memos mentioned a war priest named "Joestar".
The priest, at least the head of a parish, started as a magus and is likely to have reached the strength of a legendary priest.
There is enough strength to complete the layout last night.
"My lord, are you sure of the real murderer?"
A colonel of the city defense army took notes frantically, and at the same time said he couldn't believe it.
He doesn't know what logical reasoning is, nor what it means to rule out all the impossible, and the rest must be facts.
I just felt that it was premature to declare the case solved without completing the magic test.
Roger asked back, "Then did you arrange a prophetic spell to verify it?"
"This subordinate can't do it!"
The colonel's expression suddenly stiffened.
With the shield made directly by the gods, we are also extremely desperate.
"If you don't have a better way, you can only rely on my judgment. Start the second phase of the operation, trap the followers of the Church of the Goddess of War, find a way to catch one alive, and directly read their memory to verify. "
Roger felt that victory was at hand and immediately led the team back to the headquarters of the city defense army to arrange follow-up actions.
…
…
Mysterious City, headquarters of the City Defense Army.
Roger encountered an unexpected visitor.
Angelina Charles, his beautiful and kind sister.
"Dio, the Charles family owes you a favour." Angelina saluted him, "If you need my assistance, just speak up."
"Sister, Miss. Right Chancellor, you are too polite. I just think that this task is enough if you have a hand. If you don't take it, you will be a paratrooper. You don't consider your brother's factor."
Roger keeps his madman character.
I saved myself, and now my sister owes me a favor...
What kind of stupid account is this??
Angelina covered her mouth and chuckled: "Dio is as confident as ever. You don't have to be so polite, just call me Angie."
Roger blinked, vaguely remembering that this was the second time she made such a request, right?
Other people in the cabinet are avoiding me, but my sister still shows a good attitude?
Just because of the connection between Dio and Roger, she loves me?
Oh, my master, Roger, has a lot of face~
Roger didn't think much about it anyway, since Dio's identity would be retired immediately.
So he spoke a lot more casually: "Angie, if you want to help, then I'll ask you directly."
"As long as it remains within the scope of my duties." Angelina laughed.
She very much hopes that such an excellent and brave minister can become a friend and serve the empire together.
Roger cleared his throat: "Then please, find fifty breeding pigs with sufficient physical strength for me and send them to the city defense army headquarters!"
Angelina's face almost collapsed: "What's the use of this?"
She is in charge of allocating materials across the country. Of course, this requirement is easily accomplished.
It's just that Dio is searching for church believers and investigating the real culprit behind Bloody Night. What sort of ridiculous operation must it be that he's suddenly breeding pigs?
Roger showed a smug smile: "The gods confuse people with their beliefs, and people are also trapped in their beliefs. Imagine if some blind animals would blaspheme the Goddess of War in the street... Say that the one who has dedicated his heart to the goddess, Can Joestar, the war priest who came to the capital on a mortal mission, continue to hide?"
Angelina thought about the scene for a moment and shook her head quickly.
I was so disgusting, the smell was too strong!
There is one thing to say, but passersby can't see it. It is estimated that the true believers will directly explode when they see it, right?
She blushed with a pretty face, bit her lip, and said, "Your idea is wild. I will help you raise... a breeding pig with strong business ability."
"Thank you, Angie."
"That's it, I have to go to the National Welfare Institute to visit the newly admitted children. If they know that you’ve pinpointed the real murderer of their family in such a short time, they must be very relieved."
Angelina got up to leave, and she was relieved to know that Roger's actions were going well.
Kindness does not mean repaying grievances with virtue, mindlessly forgiving the murderer responsible for the bloody night of the capital.
Kindness just believes that human nature is inherently good, and is willing to look at the world from a better perspective, rather than condoning evil.
With the heart of a Bodhisattva, practicing Vajra means is also a way of doing good deeds.
When Roger heard about the orphanage, a flash of light suddenly appeared in his mind.
He immediately asked, "Angie, haven't you heard the name of the war priest Joestar before?"
"I don't usually ask about military intelligence, and I don't know the priest. If you want to get more information about him, you can ask Margaret."
"Oh, no, I'm just asking casually, so as not to delay your trip."
Roger waved his hands quickly.
It was only after Angelina left that he looked confused.
He just suddenly remembered that the first time the player met Angelina in the main storyline was in a National Welfare Institute.
She, who has always had a gentle face, revealed an extremely angry expression when she learned of the whereabouts of the war priest Joestar.
That's a gaffe that Angelina rarely sees in the whole plot.
But now Angelina has never heard the name Joestar at all...
It must have happened after this point in time that Angelina hated Joestar.
Roger suddenly thumped in his heart, thinking of a possibility.
The original plot did not have the bloody night of capital, and the wounded must not be the empire that Angelina cares about most, so she has to find it in her relatives.
But Angelina's only relative...
Isn't that me?
Could it be that in the original plotline, Roger died at the hands of Joestar, so Joestar would be concerned about his sister?
This logic works in theory, but unfortunately, there is no evidence.
The relationship between Angelina and Joestar is not shown too much in the game. Perhaps it is because the relevant branch has not been dug up, and scholar has no way to verify it.
"Whether it is or not, if I kill this Joestar, I will be a lot safer."
Roger silently recited the Classic of Stable Characters.
Even if it is only possible, as long as this Joestar is still in the capital city, he must die in the cradle!
…
…
Mysterious Capital, a certain state welfare institution.
In this era of backward and frequent natural disasters and wars, there are naturally many homeless orphans.
After the establishment of the empire, Angelina felt this situation and advocated the construction of many national welfare institutions, with the state finances directly bearing the expenses.
Although it has not yet spread to the whole empire, at least in the Mysterious Capital, the food and clothing of orphans can be guaranteed.
On the playground at the back of this orphanage, a group of children is playing.
A tall, strong cook dressed in civilian clothes quietly turned to the outside of the fence.
He squatted in the shadow of the trees across the railing, silently observing those innocent children.
This is Joestar who used illusions to disguise himself as the owner of the restaurant.
With time, the death of the restaurant owner will be discovered sooner or later. This identity is no longer safe, so he left first.
Damn, a certain family and the trashy brother's breath-holding contest has not yet been decided, so it is regrettable to withdraw like this!
But at this time, the Mysterious Capital has been locked down, and he can't get out of the city, so he can only find a place to continue to hide in the city.
After some observation, Joestar took a fancy to this orphanage in a prosperous area.
The more dangerous the place is, the safer it is. Going into the sewers or something is unwise.
Subtle magical fluctuations.
A little girl about four or five years old with a pair of ponytails seemed to have found something interesting and ran in the direction of Joestar.
She obediently stood beside the fence pointing at the railing until her eyes lost focus.
Outside, Joestar's body turned into a pool of blood, climbed over the wall, drilled through the railing, and flew into the little girl's body through her nostrils.
After a while, the little girl's eyes lit up again, she touched her face and grinned.
"Jinx, I've been looking for you for a long time. Lord Right Prime Minister is coming to see us. Come and dress up!"
At this moment, a gentle middle-aged woman appeared behind Joestar and held "her" little hand, and the little girl turned her head.
Ah...!
The middle-aged woman was so frightened that the basket in her arms fell to the ground, and she shook off the little girl's hand.
Jinx's smile is so scary!
Gloomy, fanatical, bloodthirsty, revealing the excitement of someone choosing to devour.
Such a smile, appearing on a small, beautiful, and innocent face, is truly evil and creepy.
But the next second, Jinx's innocent voice sounded, and his smile was still as innocent as before:
"Mother Teresa, is the Lord Chancellor of the Right coming to see us again?"
The middle-aged woman rubbed her eyes as if the scene just now was just an illusion, and there was just a poor little girl who lost a loved one in front of her!
She said softly: "Yes, the right minister possesses kindness that is rarely seen among the upper class, and truly pities us, ordinary people."
In a corner that she couldn't see, Jinx's little tongue licked his lower lip.
Right Prime Minister?
Angelina Charles?
The hunting that had been abandoned, turned around again?
If it's his sister, it would be easy to kill that stinky brother, ha...
The Mysterious Capital, a dangerous game where both sides hunt each other, officially enters the second round.
