In the early morning, St. Clair's restaurant had almost become a meeting place for the three of them.
Arthur looked at Irene's dazed look and couldn't help but remind her again: "The Mirror Demon uses vanity to seduce you. If this continues, you may really become its puppet."
Arthur read Fraga's description and already knew that it was not the kind of demon that only relied on possession, so it mainly depended on Irena's self-control.
If she was willing to fall, it would be difficult for Arthur to help her. Fortunately, the person who summoned Fraga in the first place cast a magic circle on the ancient mirror so that it could not switch to other mirrors at will.
Scheer on the side quickly asked: "Can't we exorcise demons?"
Arthur sighed, "Miss Irene, she is not possessed."
Arthur knew that as long as the ancient mirror was taken away, Irene's problem would be solved, but where to put the mirror became another problem.
And now there are three demons imprisoned inside. To be honest, Arthur doesn't feel at ease no matter where they are placed.
Yirenai did not lie again this time and nodded silently. Xieer looked at her face and said with concern: "Don't take it too seriously, we are still here!"
Arthur was speechless and simply picked up the newspaper. The biggest headline today was: Jabi Fraser, Scotland's youngest heir.
Arthur couldn't help but smile when he saw it. There would probably be more people on blind dates this time!
It also reads below: Our young heir will go to Buckingham Palace in person at the beginning of next month to accept the canonization of the Queen.
"Jabby is about to inherit the title of the Fraser family!"
Arthur happily handed the newspaper to Schell.
Although Sher pretended to look down on Jabi on the surface, in fact, after the last incident, the three of them had become friends through thick and thin. Sher was also very happy to see Jabi successfully inherit the inheritance and title. .
However, he still pretended on his face and curled his lips with disdain, "I hope he won't get carried away and have his title revoked by the Queen."
Arthur smiled. In fact, this was impossible. Even if Jabi was not allowed to inherit, he would have to find someone else in the Fraser family to inherit. However, Jabi was already the only child of the Fraser family.
Jabi's good news immediately improved his bad mood due to the case in the past few days. After dinner, he came to the church.
The church was the same as last night, as if Father Claus had not come back. Arthur picked up the white cloth and covered it on the mirror again.
Two old nuns came in and started their daily cleaning. Arthur suddenly asked: "Isn't Sister Pamela here?"
One of the old nuns replied to Arthur: "She has been sick since Father Ove's death. This poor child doesn't know when she will recover."
The old nun obviously knew what was on Pamela's mind, and Arthur also wondered why he hadn't seen her in the past few days. It seemed that Father Ovie's murder had hit her hard!
Arthur was thinking about going to check on Pamela, when Schell ran in from outside.
"No, Father Claus is dead!"
At the seaside, Father Claus's body was lying on the beach, and several birds were hovering around him.
Arthur turned over the body, and the uniform on the chest had been torn. He roughly counted, and there were exactly fourteen wounds. He looked at the neck again, but the precision instrument was gone.
Arthur checked his nostrils and mouth again, and there was no sediment in them. It was basically confirmed that Father Claus was killed by a sharp weapon, and then dumped his body into the sea, but was washed ashore by the high tide.
Arthur remembered that it was around twenty-three o'clock when Father Klaus ran out of the church last night. Father Klaus had run out of the church twice before.
At that time, he thought he was hiding from the devil, but now it seems that there may be some reasons why Father Klaus ran outside that he didn't know.
Arthur couldn't help feeling depressed. If he could get out of the church, he would also discover the secret of Father Klass.
He and Sher moved the body to the church. This was the second priest to die at Roslyn Church, and they were both murdered.
Soon, not only did the church send Father Belmont, but Police Chief Colin also came to the town of Roslyn again.
There is no way, many people have died in Roslyn Town recently. Although Colin has been suppressing the news, this time involving the church has touched the nerves of those in power.
Sher told his father Colin about the case over the past few days, and Arthur accompanied Father Belmont to the body.
The fourteen wounds were clearly visible, which frightened Father Belmont, who was not used to this kind of corpse.
"Why are there fourteen more wounds? Arthur, do you think this is an assassination specifically targeting the church?"
Arthur shook his head, "Not necessarily, although they were all stabbed fourteen times. But every stab on Father Ovie's body was very fatal. But the wounds on Father Klaus's body were shallow and deep."
"Does it make any difference?"
Father Belmont was a little confused.
"It is indeed very different. Father Ovie should have been killed by the murderer when he had no power to fight back. Father Klaus should have had a fight with the gangster, so not only was he stabbed, but also There are scratches."
Although Arthur seemed to be right, it didn't seem to mean much.
Arthur hesitated for a moment, and finally said to Father Belmont: "I once saw a silver necklace pendant on Father Claus's neck."
With that said, Arthur carefully explained the precision instrument to Father Belmont.
Unexpectedly, Father Belmont showed an extremely surprised expression after hearing this.
Arthur knew that it seemed that Father Claus indeed had a big secret.
He couldn't help but ask: "Do you know that pendant?"
Father Belmont suddenly became serious, "This case will be taken over entirely by the church. Please stop interfering."
Maybe he found that his tone was too harsh, Father Belmont softened it, and then said: "My child, I am doing this for your own good. It is best not to tell anyone about what you see!"
Arthur nodded, but he felt very helpless. Guarding himself was like guarding against thieves, which made him unable to investigate the case.
Director Colin had finished listening to Sher's story, but his face became more solemn.
Firstly, he was worried about Shel's safety, but at the same time, he also felt that if things continued like this, more people might die in Roslyn Town.
Father Belmont also expressed the church's attitude to Colin at this time. At the same time, the church would also help hide this case.
The church has now become a temporary venue. After a compromise between the two parties, Colin finally got another week for Arthur and Sher to handle the case.
In a week's time, the entire Roslyn Town case will be made public. By then, the environment will have become even worse, and it is possible that Scotland Yard will take over.
