Extraordinary Puppet Master

‘Mrs. Wally died twelve years ago, going completely crazy after absorbing a large amount of knowledge from a ritual involving the Mother of Mothers.

The resuscitation ceremony was also arranged twelve years ago, and there must not be many people who know about this ceremony, otherwise there is no reason why so many people in the Ranger Association, the Ace family, and the Secret Service would not recognize it.

In this case, it is possible that the knowledge gained by Mrs. Wallie during the period of obsession with knowledge contained the resuscitation ritual, and was obtained by the current mastermind behind the scenes.

However, according to Elena's story, no outsider had entered Moriarty Manor in those years, whether it was an open visit or a secret intrusion.

With the level of enchantment in Moriarty Manor at that time, it was impossible for even a mentor-level person to sneak in without triggering an alarm. This made it impossible for outsiders to know what knowledge she had gained.

So the possibility of someone stealing the relevant books disappears.

As for the remaining three suspects, Mrs. Wally is dead, Charlotte now has amnesia, and Mycroft was still a rookie and could not have the ability to arrange a resuscitation ceremony.

So this must be just a coincidence. ’

Shaking his head, Carlin felt that his thoughts were directly distorted by Wally's family.

The day before yesterday, he learned that the time of Mrs. Wally's death was the same as the time of the rebirth ceremony, which made him a little suspicious.

However, when he thought in another direction, all his ideas became clear.

‘Ignore it for now at Moriarty Manor.

Having the ability to arrange such a large-scale ceremony, and not revealing any clues to alert the three giants in Wayne City for twelve years, the water here must be very deep.

Slowly sort out the known information.

Tex, a business tycoon who had the power to influence the official policies of Wayne City, was thrown out and became an outcast.

This shows that the power behind the scenes in Wayne City can be said to be overwhelming. At least a big shot like Tex can abandon it at will.

So maybe there is no such thing as a cult, it is just a fictitious thing to divert attention.

If those cultists were really so awesome, how could they behave like rats on the street and live in danger, with everyone shouting for beatings?

If you were able, wouldn't it be nice to go directly to the New World to sacrifice blood to the natives?

Go to the New World to arrange resuscitation rituals. Can the extraordinary organization of the Old World still enforce laws across regions?

The mastermind behind the scenes is likely to be one of the three giants: the Rangers, the Secret Service, and the Ace family.

These three giants are not the only ones who have the ability to secretly arrange resuscitation rituals in Wayne City without everyone knowing.

But only the Big Three in Wayne City can easily make Tykes an outcast.

Okay, now there are suspects, and we can rule them out one by one based on the existing clues.

First of all, in order to prevent the local secret service branch from losing its power, the Brent Kingdom implements a shift system for the secret service branch in each city.

Rotation occurs every two years, and the same person cannot serve in a branch again within twenty years.

Therefore, the current Secret Service Department in Wayne City and the Secret Service Department twelve years ago are not the same group of people at all, and suspicion can be ruled out.

Secondly, setting up the altar for the resurrection ceremony required a large and spacious square twenty meters underground, and a civil engineering operation of this scale has now been completed!

Therefore, the mastermind behind the scenes must mobilize enough manpower to dig holes.

In this case, either the size of the construction team should be small and the work efficiency must be high. Maybe the members of the construction team are extraordinary people.

Either the organization is very strict and some means can be used to ensure that the construction workers cannot leak secrets. Contracts, soul enslavement, memory modification, and many other means can accomplish this.

Third, although the mastermind behind the scenes is well-organized, the power that can be used in the resurrection ceremony is very limited. It can only be limited to Wayne City and cannot go to the New World or other places to cause trouble.

This can rule out the suspicion of the Ranger Club. If the Ranger Club wants to arrange a resurrection ceremony, they can go to the New World and there is no need to fight in Wayne City.

Therefore, there is only one truth, the murderer is you - the Ace family! ’

Carlin thought one by one and directly focused his suspicion on the Ace family, but his thoughts soon calmed down.

After all, it is just speculation. Whether it is the Ace family or not, we need to continue to look for evidence to confirm it.

‘There is another question. Assuming that the Ace family is really behind the scenes, and I have evidence to convince Priest Kahn that they believe in me, should we have a direct showdown? ’

Karin was thinking as he walked. When he walked into a forest in front of the alchemy laboratory building, a voice suddenly interrupted his thoughts.

"Classmate Carlin, good morning."

He saw Holden's figure walking towards him in front of him.

Looking at the other party's smile, Karin immediately became irritable.

‘What the hell do you like about me? Can’t I change it? ’

A history major 'encountered' him by chance in front of the alchemy room, and he was definitely here for him.

Carlin, who was in a bad mood, showed an apologetic smile and said, "Sorry, classmate Holden, I was too absorbed in thinking about things just now and I didn't see you."

"No, I admire classmate Carlin's hard work so much. From now on, we will be real classmates."

Carlin was suddenly confused: "What do you mean?"

"Starting from today, I will also learn alchemy knowledge from Professor Birmingham with you every day."

After hearing this, Carlin wanted to shoot him immediately. The smile on Holden's face became more and more annoying to him.

He always kept Derek's reminder in mind.

Holden has the ability to influence the fate of others. Although he doesn't know what it is, Carlin found that he didn't notice anything except the constant ill feeling in his heart.

The disgust was the feedback given to him by the virtual kingdom of God. Holden may have started to use his abilities now, but Carlin didn't feel anything, it was completely silent.

‘This kind of ability is too terrifying. Even if the extraordinary ability is powerful, unless the level is much higher than that of the subject, it is impossible to not notice it.

Holden is only a trainee, how could he have such a terrifying ability? ’

Moriarty Manor.

Charlotte had been standing in front of the mansion's door for more than an hour, and her hands finally touched the door.

"This is my home, why don't you let me in? Mycroft and others said that I was mentally stimulated and took the initiative to forget what happened here.

But I know it's not the case. No matter who you are, not even Si Chen can play with my mind. I must go in and find the forgotten memories! ! ! ! ! ! "

With a low roar, Charlotte's eyes suddenly glowed with dazzling white light, and he used all his strength to push towards the door.

Bang——

The door was finally pushed open by him.

Looking at the unfamiliar hall in front of me, a large number of dusty memories flooded into my mind. As the memory was restored, everything in the hall gradually became no longer unfamiliar.

St. Wayne's College.

Just when Carlin was in a bad mood and was arguing with Holden, he suddenly found that the other person's face turned pale and started coughing violently.

"Cough-cough-cough-cough-"
