Chapter 180: The Dead End of the City

Finding someone is also a technical job, and Uriel didn't discover it until today. He didn't know how accurate Xia Zuo's memory was, and how many were modified by Wittke. In short, the sheriff is now more untrustworthy than the map in his hand. The apprentice followed him through the entire Third Ring Road City, but did not find any clues about the murderer.

"Can't you sense them?" Uriel couldn't help asking. They stopped in a grayish-white building. The sheriff changed his previous attitude, his expression showing absolute innocence.

"Oh, Uriel." He asked in surprise, "You are saying that the word "sensation" is magic, or magic, you think I'll have a little special little toy to find out the damn murderer, right?"

"Sorry, I said the wrong thing." Uriel immediately realized that Shazo did not have the memory of being a demon. It seemed that Wittke was the real complete part. I could not count on him. Perhaps this was why Wittke asked me to help. "Come with me."

The gray-white stone bricks were far away from Yeyu River, and were dry and cracked in the sun, shattered. The white air was evaporated from the soil and dust. In this dead haze, Ulier felt more than one mysterious ripples. "This is the entrance to the Dead-Near Alley." As they passed by a desolate alley, Xia Zuo suddenly spoke.

Uriel has never heard of this place. "Dangling Alley"

"The Whistle Gang's territory. The guy hanging in the church is a regular here." The sheriff is quite familiar with this. "Only mice can burrow the dead corners of the city, and most people don't even know that there are such places in Bloomnot. Stolen goods, black money, female slaves and poisons are circulating here. Underground bounties and tobacco smuggling are even more big-headed businesses, but there are often some good things here."

"It must have a headache for you."

"It's true, but not only criminals can get the convenience here. We're also asking about fugitives here, and we'll also regularly sweep some overdrafted idiots. I'm sure Hobson isn't in the alley."

Obviously, he came to search alone in the morning. This is really not surprising. "There is a brother hidden inside." Ulier whispered. "He is constantly using magic, and the disturbance is particularly obvious. Fortunately, there is no color of magic around him."

Xia Zuo's face turned right. "We have to find him."

"He has nothing to do with the murder."

"Yes, but I have a responsibility to contact them. You don't want to see the Knights kill a person on the street every day."

The reason why Uriel still has a map is that the route it navigates away from the market and the execution grounds in front of the market every time. "It's up to you."

On the way deep into the alley, the sheriff frequently turned his head to check his reaction, as if he was trying to figure out his thoughts. It seemed that I had left him with a good impression of stubbornness before, Uriel thought.

He was also observing the sheriff. Xia Zuo said that he had the responsibility to contact those unknown people, which made him overturn the original conclusion. No demon liked the patrol officer, but he thought he would be an exception. In short, even if he temporarily forgot his relevant abilities, Xia Zuo would instinctively urge me to get closer when he encountered the demon. The apprentice didn't know whether this was a hint that acted on the soul.

The dead corner alley is long and narrow, and is cut off by branches of Yeyu River in the middle. A wooden bridge is shaking on the river surface, and it is filled with people from the bridge head to the end of the bridge. The river water under people is dark green, and the boat hides dirt and is neither dodging nor traveling far. I don’t know what it is for. A dead tree is nailed with a Yeyu sign. Before that, Uriel completely did not believe that this was actually a tributary of Yeyu River.

The alley was crowded, and there were many eye-opening things on the street. Ulier saw a cockroach swelling after drinking the potion, turning himself into as big as a lizard. This was probably some kind of malicious alchemy potion. He saw the magic of pain and disorder in the dense insect eyes. Two men dragged the beast half-skinned to the market. Xia Zuo told the apprentice that it was a mysterious creature, and he could rely on his skin to change the camouflage on his body, so he was in trouble. Ulier felt a tumbling in his stomach.

A bat was hidden under the eaves, and his body emitted a bloody stench. A tall and thin man with a pipe in his arms passed by deliberately hitting him, and the apprentice thought that the other party had no eyes. As a result, he heard a slap from behind him, and when he turned around, he saw the man holding the bat's claws into his mouth. He sneered and chewed, then grinned at them, showing the mixed internal organs on his tongue.

Ulier quickly looked away and tried to forget this scene. He stared at the dirt that was overflowing from the cracks in the walls, and opened a thief's fingers that were exploring his pockets. Various smoke was floating on the street, and the broken water pipes kept emitting green water. Ulier had seen the market in Venice, and only then did he appreciate the benefits of dry and cold weather. To be honest, even standing in the air in the dead corner alley, he felt that he was not breathing smoothly. The rushing of pedestrians was even more difficult to move forward.

"How far is it?" asked Xia Zuo.

"Just ahead." The apprentice had enough of it. He thought he would never have despised the bad environment, but now he could imagine how Danlfin felt when he walked in the secret passage of Kamaria werewolf.

When he stopped, two drunks sang on the barrel. No one knew what they were singing. Uriel stood for a while before he understood from the action that one wanted to shoot the rock and the other decided to roll dice. They quarreled over this in some rhythmic exotic language, which sounded like a singer who left the tune after losing his piano.

"Which guy is that guy?" Xia Zuo followed them, as if he was hesitating about how to wake people up next.

"No, that man was just here." He also stole the wallet of the man on the left. Ulier was not going to tell the sheriff about these trivial matters. "But he left before we came. I think he was still nearby."

Sensing is not omnipotent. Whether it is a general mysterious creature or an unknown person, as long as he does not use the magic of fire communication, it will be no different in his eyes.

Just then, Ulier suddenly noticed a surge of people. "Someone fell into the water" the prostitute on the boat screamed.

Not far from the river, a head was undulating. A man who was beside the prostitute, who was not sure whether it was a sailor or a client, stepped back, cursed and walked to the deck to support the oars. Uriel quickly ran to the river, almost forgot about Xia Zuo. As a result, before he turned around, he saw the sheriff's conditioning reflex, and he ran faster than him at this time.

The bridge was more crowded than usual, countless people were talking, and countless heads looked down. The red skirt of the fallen man floated on the water, and she struggled to get rid of the decoration above and floated towards the middle of the river. She definitely couldn't swim. Suddenly, a thump on the shore, and a man jumped out of the dirty green water and grabbed her from behind.

The rescuer swam very quickly, and they arrived at the shore with the boat. The client jumped off the boat and disappeared without looking back. The prostitute pulled her companion onto the boat, and Uriel also grabbed the man's arm covered with green algae and pulled him to the river bank. "You are so brave, sir." The sheriff worked together.

"Thank you." The warrior who went into the water to save the man replied. He looked around, as if he wanted to find the bastard who left the woman in red skirt. Everyone saw the client just caring about docking the boat. "Someone should stop him." Finally, the man said.

"He's gone. You know, people who have a genitals are good at this." Xia Zuo let go of his hand, but Uriel didn't. "You need to be dry. Come here." The apprentice signaled the confused sheriff to follow.

Warrior Gunther told them his name and claimed that he was from San Carlos. Ulier had no idea about San Carlos, but his accent seemed familiar. He just couldn't remember where he had heard it.

"Thank you for your help." Gunther was fucked, "The magic always works great in some important aspects. You are a member of the church."

"No, but my profession is given by the goddess."

"Gaia is above." He said obediently. He also seemed to be a pan-believers. Ulier knew what he was thinking, but he wouldn't lose his head anyway.

He pretended not to hear Gunther's perfunctory. "This gentleman is the sheriff, Wittkeshazo."

Gunther paused, "I'm glad to know you, Lord Patrol." His voice could not be heard, but hesitated on his face.

"Your righteous deed is admirable."

"This is so different from the patrolmen who maintain Bloomnott's stability, sir."

"You seem to have something to say"

"No, no, a small misunderstanding has been solved."

"Where have you heard my name?" Xia Zuo said affirmatively. His face turned gloomy in an instant.

"In the newspaper." Gunther admitted.

"I didn't do that." The sheriff defended anxiously, so he didn't notice that Gunther's expression suddenly became strange, but Ulier saw it. "There were two bandits who killed Father Fielding and wanted my life. It was Hobson. You must know him, and everyone who came to Dead Alley knew him. He was Mrs. Bertha Ferner's younger brother."

Gunther believed him. "I also think that the officer who is so happy to lend a helping hand to others will not murder others. I remember Father Fielding had a close relationship with you." He stared into the sheriff's eyes and spoke very enthusiastically. "The Public Security Bureau made a mistake. Detective Poirot will definitely correct you. She will never wrongly accuse a good person. The newspaper said that she will solve the case tomorrow night. Sir, by tomorrow night, everything will return to normal."

"You are such a kind-hearted person. Since the night before yesterday, everyone wants to break off relations with me. Only you are willing to believe me." Xia Zuo met a soulmate.

Gaia is on, how did this guy become the sheriff Uriel have to interrupt them "Business blows me to pause. Especially you, Wittschazo, quieting for a while is good for you." He turned to Gunther, "Mr. Nameless, you stole the alcoholic money and then went to save the girl who fell into the water. Now it's time to see if your pocket is still intact."
