Primordial Sequence

Chapter 23 The first mission

The sky at night was a little intoxicating. The orange-red sunset enveloped the city. People dragged their tired bodies and went home happily, ready to enjoy the rare night. Camus was wearing a black suit and holding a He was toasting bread and eating while rushing to the Adventurer's Guild.

"In the blink of an eye, there are only a dozen copper coins left. I can't survive without making money. I hope I can gain something tonight."

Camus followed the rays of the sun and stepped onto the second floor, pushing open the door of the Investigation Department.

"Squeak..."

"Oh...is this Camus? I feel like a different person after changing my clothes. Do you need black tea or coffee?"

When Camus entered the door, he saw Kashu making coffee and black tea. The aroma of coffee filled the whole room. When he saw Camus, he pointed to the teapot and asked what he wanted.

"Oh, thank you so much. I'd like a cup of black tea, please."

"Don't you need coffee? It's a long night tonight, and I make good coffee."

Camus shrugged, put the hat on the shelf next to the door, and looked at Kashu with a smile.

"Then let's have a drink. Thank you Ka Xiu. Where are the captain and the others?"

"It's in the war room. You go first and I'll be right back after I've made the coffee."

"Um...Okay" Camus took a few steps, saw "Operation Department" on the door number, opened the door and walked in.

After entering the door, Camus was choked by a burst of second-hand smoke and almost coughed. He squinted his eyes and looked around and found that the entire investigation department was there, and he felt a little embarrassed.

"Oh...Sorry, I'm late. Did I miss something?"

Munro raised the tobacco in his hand, "Would you like a root of Camus? It tastes quite good. This is the tobacco grown by the Yodel people in the Duoyin River. Their tobacco is famous far and wide. As for your question, I think you You missed our afternoon tea, but you won’t miss our evening tea.”

At this time, Ka Xiu came in with six cups of coffee, distributed them to several people, and closed the door.

Kamiao pulled up the chair and sat down, looking at the few people with a smile, "I just finished eating, just have something to drink. As for tobacco, well... Captain, you can enjoy it slowly."

Munro took a long puff of tobacco, spit it out intoxicatedly, and took another cup of coffee.

"The coffee is indeed good. The people Susie is looking for have some special characteristics. This is the information collected by the Adventurer's Guild. Take a look. The impact of this incident is very huge, and the citizens are very panicked."

Seeing the white paper being pushed over, Camus picked it up with a solemn expression and observed it carefully.

"Decedent: Claudius Shiliu, Occupation: Tavern Waiter, Age: 23, Race: Bunnyman, Time of Death: Between 12 and 1pm, Cause of Death: Abdomen was opened, internal organs were damaged, excessive blood loss , no clear enemy, no trace of the crime.

Seeing this Camouflage reminded me of the man in the hospital. After thinking about it, I turned to the second page.

"Deceased: Macuine Dorsey, Occupation: Student of Caldecott College of History, Age: 24, Race: White Werewolf, Time of Death: Between 12 and 1, Cause of Death: Abdomen was opened and internal organs were damaged , excessive blood loss, no clear enemy, and no traces of the crime.

Looking at the pages of autopsy reports, Camus narrowed his eyes and put down the information in his hand.

Seeing several people reading the information, Munro put out his cigarette and tapped the table with two fingers.

"What did you find?"

Susie took a sip of coffee and said, "The deceased all died around 12 o'clock. They were all in their 20s and there were no traces. Which sequence could it be?"

Akali stroked the sword on her body and said calmly, "You answer these questions, and I will do the killing."

Casca clapped the pen in his hand and said, "I'm sorry, my mind is full of "mechanical drawings" and I can't spare any time. Please think about it slowly."

As for the cat man Ka Xiu, he was intoxicated and drinking coffee, and it seemed that there was no hope.

Kamiao immediately knew at the first glance why Susie was looking for him. He was a ruthless person, the type who could do anything but never use his brain.

"Ahem... In fact, everyone has a certain purpose in doing things. In addition to the problem Miss Susie mentioned, I also discovered another problem."

"All the dead were aliens, not a single human being, and the perpetrators killed without any purpose. We must find their motives before we can find the murderer. So who hates aliens the most?"

"After hearing this question, several people in the room fell silent. There is too much hatred between races, and it is impossible to explain it clearly."

Seeing that several people were silent, Camus pushed forward the information and said, "Captain, I would like to ask which group is keen on disemboweling? Or what do they want from the dead?"

"Stomaching?"

Susie stood up when she heard this, "Evil rituals require internal organs, but their body organs are not lost, so they can only be illusory things, such as "extreme emotions" or "strong desires."

"Then there are only two sequences that need this kind of thing, "Sequence Seven Dreamer" and "Sequence Nine Lawyer". Of course, the evil existence of Sequence One is not ruled out."

The captain shook his head, "All sequences are evil." If you want to doubt, just doubt all sequences. As you know, "the price of sequences" is high, "no one is sound after paying the price." It is possible for any sequence to do this. "

"Seeing this Camus sitting on the table, thinking hard, thinking about the details I had seen, I suddenly thought of what the police said, "Congressman," since only a few people died, why did the congressman go to the police station? Thinking of this Camus, he looked up With Susie.

"Miss Susie, do you know how many people die and go missing every day in Cadde City?"

When Susie heard this, she thought for a while and came up with a number.

"More than ten"

Hearing this, Kamius was sure that there was someone behind him who was adding fuel to the fire and causing the citizens to panic.

"Captain, I don't think we can participate in this matter. We should choose another mission."

Munro shook his head when he heard this, "This is our first mission, and we must complete it no matter the cost. Did you find anything?"

Kamiao looked around the team members and slowly uttered two words.

"coup"

"As you have seen in Caldecott City during this period, our mayor is having a hard time. I saw a large-scale demonstration a few days ago, and the citizens knew about this murder too quickly and too much."

Susie took a sip of coffee, "You mean, someone committed a murder and wanted to blame the mayor, and was behind it to add fuel to the fire?"

"No, they don't need to frame the blame. They need an outlet for anger. The government's oppression and incompetence will cause people to mutiny. As far as I know, Caddick City's policies are "very unfriendly" to foreigners.

Munro lit another cigarette, "You mean, these people were killed just to make the citizens angry?"

"The alien race is holding a fire and is about to explode. Captain, are you still going to complete this mission? This is just a little guess on my part. And maybe things will develop in a good direction?"

Munro knocked on the table, "No, this may be a direction. It is true that we cannot participate in the coup, but since we know this possibility, we must find the murderer."

Upon hearing this, Kamiao picked up a pen and wrote two words on the table, "Member of Parliament", and knocked.

"Let's start with the members. If the mayor falls this time, who is most likely to come to power?"

Upon hearing this, Susie spit out a name, Councilor "Dam Yangxi", a sheep person, president of the Caddick City Charity Society, president of the Foreign Workers Guild, leader of the Sheep Tribe of Caddick City, and a strong candidate for the next mayor.

"Okay, let's track him down and see if there is anything wrong with Camus' guess. I have a hunch that this will be a thrilling mission."
