The Evil God of Hogwarts - Chapter 374
c364 clues surfacing
Before sending the Black Knight to the police station, he confessed a lot of things. It can only be said that hatred can indeed change a person’s state of mind. However, because he lost the support of the spell, his weak body needed emergency treatment.
Ellie sat in Rayburn’s office in a daze, people came and went outside the window, and Harris’s rough roar could be heard from time to time. Obviously, he was quite satisfied with the result this time. Not only did he capture a leader of the Knights Gang, but he also asked him a lot of things about the Old Records Gang and the Knights Gang.
These clues will play an important role in the future and can help them better eliminate the gangs in Liverpool. But Ellie was not concerned about this. She let her brain relax temporarily. She received a lot of information along the way, and she needed to sort it out.
The door of the office was pushed open, and Rayburn walked in. When he saw Ellie in a trance, he whispered, “Is it not the right time to come?”
The eldest lady retracted her empty consciousness, took a breath and replied, “Just thinking about something.”
“Well, maybe I shouldn’t ask, but I’m still curious, what did Bill tell you? Is there any information I need to know?”
“A lot, give me some time to sort it out. In addition, let Worm come in.”
A trace of uncertainty flashed across Rayburn’s face, and he asked, “Are you sure you want him to join? To be honest, I’m planning to discuss with the director to punish that guy, put him on the blacklist, and then let him go.”
“No, don’t worry. He is very familiar with Liverpool, and I need a guide, he is very suitable.”
“If you think so, then I’ll ask someone to bring him here.”
Ellie nodded, then picked up the paper and pen at hand and began to sort out the clues in her mind. From what I learned from the Black Knight, the top leaders of the Old Record Gang have been cooperating with the Snake Man.
They provided the snake people with necessary experimental subjects and experimental materials, while the snake people gave them new drugs and some biotechnology. With the help of these technologies, the senior members of the Old Record Gang were already different from ordinary people. This is why they were able to fight against the Knights.
As for why the Sabbat Cult cooperated with the Knights, it was because the snake people and the Cult had been fighting for control of the Liverpool underground world. The two sides changed from fierce confrontations to the current model – using the hands of local gangs to compete with each other.
As for the reason, the Black Knight said he didn’t know, but he occasionally heard some words from the war. He guessed that the focus of the Sabbat Cult was not here, and their goal was to resurrect the archbishop, that is, Edward Mendes.
Only the archbishop could lead the Cult to the new world after destruction, so the Sabbat Cult put more energy on that side, so the fight with the snake people could also be stalemate.
However, recently, Edward Mendes finally got reborn. He no longer appeared as a dying old man, but returned to the Cult as a young man.
The fanatical believers were of course extremely excited, especially the war. She thought it was time to blow the horn of counterattack, but unexpectedly, the bishop said that his body was not perfect yet. After a brief appearance, he disappeared from the sight of the believers again.
The news of Mendes’ resurrection also spread to the snake people. According to the clues investigated in recent years, the Black Knight believed that the snake people accelerated the speed of collecting the lost holy objects of their tribe after Mendes’ resurrection.
Legend has it that as long as they can collect all the holy objects, they can regain the favor of the Father God and lift the curse – the curse of the snake god Yig, which is also an important reason for the decline of the snake civilization.
The curse has caused the snake people to degenerate all the time, from a high-level civilized species to a beast that only demands blood and killing. In desperation, these snake people took a deep sleep to ensure that their tribe can be saved by the outside world.
When it comes to holy objects, the first thing that Ellie thinks of is “Snake’s Tooth”. Flack accepted the commission to find the whereabouts of “Snake’s Tooth”, but he didn’t expect that this book is a holy object of the snake people.
During the investigation, they must have come into contact with those terrible creatures, which led to their death. As for where Frank himself went, the Black Knight didn’t know.
Because all the secret sentries they sent were solved, the only one who came back alive became a madman, scribbling a lot of words and symbols that no one could understand in the ward of the mental hospital all day long. Fortunately, they still have Frank’s whereabouts before he disappeared.
Similar to what Ellie guessed, Frank was also tracking down the nursing home and the homeless rescue center, but other people in his team had recently visited an old house located at the assembly dock frequently.
Regarding the old house, the Black Knight has not had time to do a further investigation. Their current focus is more on finding a way to treat the Archbishop’s body. The snake man is just one of the many threats they face, and it can’t be called a big threat.
Ellie stopped writing and pondered. The snake man felt pressured by Mendes’ rebirth, so he began to desperately look for holy relics to deal with the upcoming war. “Snake’s Tooth” has not been found yet, so what about the other holy relics? Where did those holy relics go?
At this moment, an idea flashed through Ellie’s mind. The family from the Great Swamp used the snake as their family emblem. It was rumored that they were blessed by the gods.
Slytherin family! The eldest lady almost blurted out, she finally connected some things. The ancestors of the Slytherin family may have discovered the sacred objects of the snake people, which made them make rapid progress in magic attainments and rise to the top family in a short time.
“If this is true.” The eldest lady said to herself, “No wonder Edwin and Reko hit a wall in the Slater family. It also explains why A would find a squib detective to investigate this matter. The Slater family does not want people in the magic world to know the secrets of their family.”
“What Slytherin? What family?” Worm asked when he pushed the door open. Reiben, who was standing behind him, frowned and warned: “Shut up and sit there quietly.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Reiben said again: “No, not there, a little further away.”
Worm, who had just sat down, had to move his butt and sit on the edge of the sofa. He complained dissatisfiedly: “I helped you catch the Black Knight. Damn, that’s the Black Knight.”
“In my opinion, he is just a disabled person who is terminally ill.”
“So, you policemen couldn’t even catch a disabled person before?”
Worm’s sarcasm made the superintendent speechless. The latter’s face sank and he was about to explode, but Ellie interrupted: “Okay, stop arguing, it’s meaningless. Let’s listen to the clues I sorted out.”
“For God’s sake, I have done everything I should do. You can’t do this to me.” Worm couldn’t believe his ears. If the police can discuss the case and clues in front of you, it means that you have not yet gotten rid of this matter, which means that he still has to cooperate with the police.
