Mage Joan

Chapter 424: Mentor's death

"Thomas! You can't change your brain, can you change it?" Edward scowled, "Even if Walter Lee has a bad character, it doesn't mean he deserves to be murdered!"

"Look at the tone of your speech, really treat yourself as a policeman? I like to say whatever I like in private, it's up to you to take care of it? What do you count!"

"Edward, to tell you the truth, I'm in a bad mood now, very bad, don't make trouble!"

Thomas's face didn't smile, and his grumpy eyes showed that he didn't mind a fight to vent his depressed emotions.

"Okay, okay, you two don't quarrel."

Joan had to appease the two classmates who were both impulsive and try to get the topic back on track.

"I saw a patrol officer on campus when I came back. Presumably, the police has intervened in the investigation. Is there any news about the murderer?"

"The case is still in the investigation stage, but there are some clues. Master Rolls and Master Li were killed on the same night, and the same marks are left on the wall of the murder scene, which looks like a split into eight segments. Golden Snake."

"The golden snake divided into eight segments..." Joan thought about it and suddenly changed his face. "It sounds like the emblem of the'Son of Freedom' Association!"

Edward nodded gently: "The police think so, so the day after the incident, the police raided the Leiden Post and took away the editor-in-chief, Miranda Fisher."

"You probably also know that the Leiden Post and the'Son of Freedom' have always had an ambiguous relationship. People say that smugglers will secretly squeeze money into the newspaper, and reporters and editors who buy the newspaper say good things for them. Miranda Fisher I am a senior officer of the organization."

"Of course, these are rumors, and there is no real evidence that Miranda Fisher is the murderer or behind-the-scenes mastermind of the murder of the two masters."

"Since there is no conclusive evidence, why is it necessary to publicly arrest Ms. Miranda?"

Joan was deeply puzzled by the police's actions.

"Leave the'Son of Freedom' logo at the crime scene, it does not prove that the two murders should be the responsibility of the'Son of Freedom', otherwise, if there is a piece of bread at the murder site, would you have to catch all the toasters in the city? stand up?"

"The police's actions are indeed brutal. At first glance it seems illogical, but in fact it makes sense."

Thomas smiled sarcastically.

"The Chief of Police of Port Leiden is also served by the Director of Customs, and our Customs Director, Mr. Andrew Snow, had formed a beam with the Association of "Freedom Sons" at the beginning of his tenure. Mr. issued a bill to crack down on smuggling. He sent him more than one threatening letter and threatened to kidnap his family. Do you think Mr. Snow can take that breath?"

"Now there is a chance to clean up the'Children of Freedom' association, Mr. Snow will certainly not miss it, even if he knows in his heart that Ms. Miranda, a newspaper leader who is quite prestigious in the cultural and upper-class society, is unlikely to be a murderer. The murderer, there is no reason to murder two university professors who have no grudges against her and even the'Son of Freedom' association. She still wants to drag her into this scandal. The real purpose is not to solve the case, but to take the opportunity to beat Miranda The'Son of Freedom' Association behind the lady."

"What is your father's attitude towards this case?" Joan asked Edward.

"The police and the military belong to different systems. My dad was inconvenienced to intervene in criminal cases. Moreover, the police took Ms. Miranda in the name of "assisted investigation" and could not pick out the fault in the procedure." Edward shrugged.

Joan nodded noisily, and couldn't help recalling the fact that he accompanied Rebecca to the Snow Manor to get rid of spirits.

In the haunted manor of the Snow family, he unexpectedly met Sister Miao. After her introduction, she met two senior members of the "Son of Freedom" association-"Mr. Fox" Joseph Adams and "Ms. Wolf".

Although "Ms. Wolf" never took off her mask that night, the attitude she showed during her conversation with Xiao Miao was not difficult to see. This person may be the editor-in-chief of the newspaper, Ms. Miranda Fisher, the chief supervisor of Xiao Miao.

The "Haunted Incident" at Snow Manor was completely created by the "Son of Freedom" association, with the purpose of intimidating the customs chief Andrew Snow and his family.

Mr. Snow, who is also the police chief of Port Leiden, wanted to find out the truth behind the incident. It was not unreasonable to take revenge on Ms. Miranda while taking advantage of the serial murder.

Joan didn't want to take care of these idle things, but he couldn't tolerate Andrew Snow's negligence in tracing the real murderer for the sake of the private vengeance, which led to the impunity of the real murderer who murdered Rolls.

"Thomas, where is the tutor's coffin? I want to see his old man again." Joan looked lonely.

Compared with the death of my grandfather, the spiritual impact of the teacher's death on him is even stronger.

Grandpa's health has always been bad, and his illness is an expected thing, and the tutor Rawls is in his prime, and his death has no signs at all.

In addition to lamenting the cruelty and impermanence of fate, Joan didn't know how to express his grief to near numbness.

"The case is still under investigation. The mentor's coffin is now inconveniently buried and temporarily parked in the church of the seminary. I will go with you." Edward stood up.

"I'm going too." Thomas followed downstairs.

I don't know when it started to rain. The damp air and gloomy sky made me feel depressed.

Joan opened an umbrella and hurried through the muddy campus accompanied by Edward and Thomas to the campus of the seminary, facing the most prominent milky white dome building is the "Queen of Karma" Timus church.

Joan put away the umbrella and went into the church.

When I saw the statue of the goddess displayed in the center of the sermon, I couldn't help but wonder:

In the doctrine of this goddess in charge of destiny, everything in the world is connected by countless causal chains, and there must be a cause for everything. Given this theological idea, what is the root cause of the death of Tutor Rawls?

A good old man with a simple personality and a kind heart like Robert Rawls, a happy bachelor who has spent most of his life on an "ivory tower"-like campus, almost never offended anyone. The murderer's eyes are so nailed that he has to venture into Leiden College to kill him cruelly?

Joan thought about it, and he couldn't see any inevitable causality between the murder.

He prefers to believe that the Rolls mentor is the hand of a lunatic who died of a mental disorder. Rather, he believes that the mentor's murder was an accident rather than something that caused him to die.

At least this will make him feel better.
