Chapter 571 An exciting
call came.
The back alley guy who visited me last night and showed me a good taste sent me a letter saying that he had gathered the information he wanted.
‘It’s already time to move my residence.’
I was hoping to hold out for a few more days though. I had to assume that others knew where I was, even the common gang in the back alley.
This is where they were born and raised, so it may be quicker, but money, power, and power are more effective in digging up information than personal connections, so it won’t be like that.
Well, no matter how big the Bant Castle is, it is a castle. Not everyone is like that, but it’s not easy to settle down just because you’re going to a foreign country, and it’s a fairly advanced place because of a recent accident.
So you don’t have to leave anymore. The fact that there are many people staying in one place for a long time means that there are quite a lot of people. Wherever you go, you will find a room in no time.
“I knew that, so I reserved several rooms.”
When I had time, I stopped at another inn and got a room. Both long-term and short-term.
There will be no particular pattern as the location, facility level, etc. are randomly selected.
In the future, I plan to stay at one of these places at random.
That’s it.
“Is today the day? They come all at once.”
Coincidentally, the seagull also delivered the documents. nice I’ll have to look through them all at once.
It took about 4 days to enter Bant Castle. I tried wandering around wondering if another vampire would come out, but nothing special happened.
“Let’s go.”
“Can I look at this a little more?”
“Take it in your bag and see you later.”
“What about a bag?”
“uh. I will change my accommodation. take a look there Don’t come out today.”
“great!”
After taking a pile of magazines from Bant Castle, Miya takes her bag. I didn’t have much luggage like when I came in.
Living as a human means that even if you stay for a short time, the burden will increase, but this guy wasn’t very greedy either. Should I say it’s simple, or should I say I don’t know how to use it yet?
Heck, I don’t know much about leisure life or anything like that.
I went outside and wandered around looking for a place to stay. It was to avoid possible tailing, and there was also a sneak peek to see if anyone would approach Miya.
I should say I’m lucky, but I didn’t see anything special.
-I
put on the hoodie I got from the mall and entered the inn located on the corner of the mall.
Unlike other places, the bookstore is on the first floor, so all you have to do is use the stairs attached to the side. advantages and disadvantages.
You can enter the dorm without worrying about running into people on the first floor if you pay the bill, but on the other hand, people who are targeting us can do the same.
Well, I’m going to pay attention to this one too.
“Deokchun is here today.”
“To that?”
I gave a special snack set to Deokchun, who suddenly looked at me with a questioning expression.
“The two of you are eating snacks while reading a book.”
“and! you are pretty! Can I really eat it?”
“If you can eat it.”
“yes? What!”
As expected, Deokchun eats the snack while ignoring the wrapping paper of various colors and the decor that shows the craftsmanship.
Miya also stretches out her hand.
-Snap
“Ouch.”
“Eyyy, it’s a bit of a hit. There are more, so share.”
Amman, but that’s how it is. I knew that, but I prepared another one.
The snacks seem to suit my taste, so I’ll leave this to Deokchun and go to the back alley.
* * *
The alley scenery is nothing new.
I slapped the back of the heads of those who were still grumbling and entered the building with cool steps.
-bang!
“I am here.”
“…Does it really need to kick the door?”
“It must have rusted. It didn’t open well.”
A single hinge was barely attached, and it made the tilting door lie flat.
I was about to open it, but I didn’t want to touch it because the handle was covered with strange filth, probably because they lacked the concept of hygiene.
People in downtown seem to be trying to keep clean, but they are young.
“Move.”
“I left a seat in front of you, so why are you here…”
“It’s comfortable here.”
I pulled out the boss who was sitting first and sat in the seat of honor.
well this one is good too There is a wall behind you and a door in front of you, so it’s great for preparing for an unexpected attack.
If it was a monster or an enemy, it would easily break through the wall, but that’s what happened then.
There were materials on the table that seemed to have been prepared by him, but the amount didn’t seem too large.
Does that mean there isn’t that much information about the Corpse Sculptor Caliber? I don’t think it’s a waste of time since you called me.
“It was a fortnight ago that he showed up recently. Found folded in half. 42 year old male. He must have been a drunkard.”
“Hmm. Are you a real corpse sculptor?”
I read the page while listening to the explanation of the guy sitting across from me.
The act of folding in half is similar to Caliber’s, but he takes part of his body. On the other hand, this guy is fine.
Photos taken with a film camera showed the body crumpled inside the box.
“It often happens like this. That doesn’t always cut it.”
I think I said something similar before.
That’s why I checked the information on the victims, wondering if there might be something in common with the people he was targeting.
Gender and age were not in common. Among them were commoners and some from the slums.
If it was clear what he was aiming for, he could have dug a trap, but I don’t know the criteria.
On the other hand, the characteristics of the simply killed target were clear.
‘An ugly or dirty person.’
Most of them have large scars, stink, and filth. The sick are also targeted.
This is the basic material prepared by him.
“I think you said there was information that only you know.”
“The personality is also impatient. It’s right behind you. I had a hard time making it talk.”
Raising the corner of his mouth, I wanted to give him a slap for nothing, but he shifted his gaze to the papers.
There were many rumors about Caliber, but no one actually saw it, so no one has seen the name, pseudonym, face, or body.
If there had been a montage, at least the investigation would have been narrowed down.
“There were survivors.”
“No one would have known. Because I also found out by accident. As for how this happened…”
He started talking about something, but I didn’t care.
I’m not very interested in that. It doesn’t matter that there are survivors who were supposed to.
When I looked at the papers, I was attacked, but I didn’t survive. An eyewitness who saw the scene survived.
Even according to the testimonies, it was said that even though they met eyes, they did not kill them and sent them away. It’s just…
“I even crushed the old man’s tongue. can’t speak Considering what we’ve done so far, it’s an act full of mercy.”
“Hmm. First of all, I have drawing skills, but I can barely do it.”
The witness was a lowly citizen, a black-eyed man who knew how to speak but did not know how to write. It was difficult to express something with pictures because I did not have drawing skills, and above all, I was extremely afraid to talk about Caliber.
but.
I don’t know how it was cooked, but I came up with some information.
He said he couldn’t speak or write, but he somehow managed to express himself with his body and explain with non-verbal expressions such as pointing at something.
5 keywords.
“Large stature. hand gloves. mask. glasses. no sunglasses. anyway. It’s wrapped in a cloak, but it looks like it’s carrying a bag inside.”
These are strange combinations. It’s tall, but the rest are small elements, so you can change it as much as you want.
Just take off the mask or goggles and that’s it. Like the cloak, I’d rather be curious about what’s in the bag you’re carrying inside.
Are you trying to put the mutilated body in there?
Looking at this alone, it didn’t have much nutritional value, but thanks to it, I was able to know two things.
‘One is that there may be more survivors.’
I don’t know why, but there is a target that doesn’t kill even if it sees itself. I don’t know what that criterion is.
second.
He hides his appearance.
It may seem obvious in some ways, but you have to keep an eye on it.
Only one person survived seeing the corpse sculptor, and everyone else was dead.
It would be nice to camouflage it, but ok. If you kill them all, isn’t that an assassination?
What’s more, that figure is more for cover than camouflage or disguise. Because it looks suspicious to anyone.
Do you have complexes on your face or body? Or some other reason?
Anyway, if there’s a guy who’s poisonous body is wrapped around something, I’ll have to keep an eye on it.
Then I checked the replies to the letters I sent to Rilka and the Framberg Flower and Bird Bureau.
“Hmm.”
He let out a small breath.
Knock knock. I tapped the desk a few times and stood up.
The leader of the organization also stands up with a refreshing expression.
“Looks like your business is over now. I hope we don’t have to meet each other in the future.”
“No, I will come back later. Rather, do you know a place called a party?”
“party? Vega Party?”
“Speak there. okay. Have you ever heard of a gear?”
“Don’t pick and choose strange sounds.”
“You don’t know. I get it. thanks for your effort.”
-bang!
“hey!”
I put the door that had been laid on the floor back into the wall and came out.
I thought he was screaming, but I think it’s an illusion, so let’s ignore it.
“Is it already this time?”
The sun is setting little by little.
Is the day a bit short in this world? It’s night when you do something.
Maybe it’s just because I’m busy walking around.
“Miya will like it.”
How to stop the vampire progression. To be precise, I found a way to live without sucking human blood.
It was information provided by the Flower and Bird Bureau, but it was only possible while it was still mutating.
‘Drink the blood of the vampire who bit you.’
Conversely, it was to suck and absorb the blood of the being that mutated itself.
No specific method is written. It just says that doing so will free you from your thirst for blood.
They said that they were also found in old records, so they did not know what principle or exact result would come out.
Still, it’s better than Rilka’s recommendation of something like ‘SSS’, saying it’s good for training.
The following is from Framberg.
It seemed that he did not know much about the Vega Party.
Although it is a place that has a great influence on the tower, it is very closed and most of the transactions are made through the Flower and Bird Bureau, so you have no idea what is on the other floors.
Yes, I did find out one thing.
‘Items without a star are really elaborately crafted toys.’
Although it was extremely sophisticated and advanced technology, it seemed to have no use other than toys, but the items with a star were different.
“Small? principle of something?”
A prototype for making something. Since it has been miniaturized, how can you say that it is a prototype?
Anyway, some of the principles of making similar devices are included, and it looks very simple, but it is said that it is a device that can be reproduced based on realistic technology.
Literally a device. Although the appearance is a toy, the actual function and principle are said to be close to a magic engineering device.
Those in the know will recognize it, and it’s shaped like a toy, so even those who don’t know much about technology will be able to figure out what functions it has with a few touches.
It’s not just made, is it? It’s like telling people who might know that this exists. while avoiding the gaze of others.
Vega Party is also suspicious.
“Wait, I have one too.”
There are things that are loosely hung on a string like a necklace.
A blue liquid contained in a transparent tube. It was kind of like a water clock.
What should I do with this?
First of all, turn the cog at the top first and then turn it over. Still, there was no response, so I held it in my hand and shook it vigorously.
“ah.”
-Kwajik
_
Blue light spread from the broken glass tube, unable to withstand the force.
Repulsive force enough to open your hand slightly. It wasn’t that dangerous, but what is it? The strangely refreshing feeling and the heavy flow…
when I was tilting my head.
– Flinch!
I saw a guy who was toxic in the spreading blue energy.
