The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

"I'm in Oklahoma now" Qin Zhibo chose to tell the truth.

Mr. Clock: “As far as I know, Oklahoma is not the destination of this trip.”

"because."

Before Qin Zhibo could finish speaking, Mr. Clock continued, "You and I are going to meet an important person tonight. You'd better arrive at Arkham before evening."

"Buzz——"

After saying that, Mr. Clock hung up the phone.

Mr. Clock still didn't have any emotional ups and downs in his words, but judging from the speed of his speech, this was an urgent matter.

Qin Zhibo looked at the police around him and found Billy Childress who was being taken into the police car.

He is the father of the scar-faced man, and he lives with the scar-faced man. Logically speaking, he should also be a member of the Yellow Seal Brotherhood.

But after Qin Zhibo found an opportunity to contact him, he found that the system did not provide any feedback.

During the police interrogation, Billy Childress confessed that he believed in voodoo and had nothing to do with the Scarface Man's beliefs.

But it was he and his son who kidnapped and murdered the missing, because not only the scar-faced man's advent ceremony required sacrifices, but his voodoo also required some sacrifices when performing important rituals.

"Oh my God, what a mess this family has!" Detective Martin exclaimed.

Qin Zhibo figured out the reason why Ratio Childress was not a member of the Yellow Seal Brotherhood, and immediately set off for Arkham Town.

Although the Kudo couple also want to go to Massachusetts, they have to take at least one day off today and start again tomorrow.

At the airport, Kudo and his wife bid farewell to Qin Zhibo.

"Take care"

"The same to you."

Qin Zhibo and Kudo Yusaku's hands were tightly held together, and they let go after a long time.

It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived at Arkham Airport by plane.

Excluding the time spent on the case of the scar-faced man, most of today was either on the road or on the road. In short, I was very tired.

Qin Zhibo took a nap on the plane and temporarily restored his will point to 75 points.

Maybe because this experience was a bit intense, the recovery speed of willpower is not too fast, but it is enough.

Unfortunately, he only investigated one member of the Yellow Seal Brotherhood and did not complete the main task of investigating the heretic organization.

The main area of ​​activity of the Yellow Seal Brotherhood is Oklahoma. It is almost impossible to find members of the organization if you leave that state.

Although it is a bit regretful, Mr. Clock's side is a clue related to the biggest main task. Qin Zhibo can still figure out which one is more important and which one is less important.

After taking a taxi to Arkham, Qin Zhibo was shocked by the town in front of him.

Completely different from the modern cities of Los Angeles and Oklahoma City, this is an old town with lots of mansard roofs.

Experiencing two completely different cities in just one day gave Qin Zhibo an exaggerated feeling of traveling from one world to another.

The taxi passed by old and gloomy houses with stucco walls, and finally stopped at the destination designated by Qin Zhibo and also the destination designated by Mr. Clock - the White Devil Bar.

After getting off the car and arriving at the bar, Qin Zhibo raised his head and glanced at the vine roof on the bar. The gloomy wall-creeper hung on the brown-red brick wall, which was quite stylish.

It's just that the term "honky" is a term used by black people, which connotes discrimination and ridicule.

This shows that this bar is supposed to be a black bar, where the theory of Black Lives Matter is put into practice.

When he first arrived, Qin Zhibo didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble, so he decided to call Mr. Clock out on the phone.

As soon as the call was dialed, Qin Zhibo heard the phone ringing from behind the wooden door of the bar in front of him.

The wooden door opened, and a familiar figure walked out, it was Mr. Clock.

Mr. Clock still uses the same human skin identity he had when he left Japan, Peter Evans, a book salesman.

"You are finally here. You are very welcome."

Seeing Qin Zhibo, Mr. Clock smiled on his face, opened his arms and hugged Qin Zhibo.

Qin Zhibo rarely felt "enthusiasm" from Mr. Clock, but this "enthusiasm" was a bit weird.

After the hug, Qin Zhibo looked up at the bar sign and then at Mr. Clock's skin color. Just as he was about to ask, Mr. Clock answered first.

"The owner of the bar is a white man and the name of the bar was just based on his nickname."

Qin Zhibo nodded, feeling as if his inner thoughts had been seen through.

No way.

Mr. Clock continued: "I will take you to the Silver Twilight Church when night falls. You still have one hour to prepare."

This sentence caught Qin Zhibo off guard, and he quickly asked: "Why should I go to that church? Can't I just do some foreign aid?"

Mr. Clock shook his head, "It's different now. They need someone who can perform a certain task, and my identity has been fixed. One more person must be needed to meet their requirements."

"As long as you can do this task well, I can become one of the core members of the Silver Gaze Church, and then I can get closer to the Panest fragment."

The unknown uncertainty made Qin Zhibo want to give up, but Mr. Clock patted Qin Zhibo on the shoulder and said firmly: "Other than me, this task belongs to you."

An hour later, Qin Zhibo arrived for the appointment on time, but with a new look, blond and blue-eyed.

When Qin Zhibo came to the United States this time, he considered that his current social credit of 6320 was still relatively well-known. If he really wanted to do something "dirty" by then, he would have to ensure that he would not be recognized.

So before leaving, Qin Zhibo brought over the "Michael Bay" human skin mask that he used last time at the Cupido Hotel.

Now, this mask comes in handy.

Meeting Mr. Clock at a street intersection, Mr. Clock said nothing about Qin Zhibo's change of face.

The two walked together on the streets of Arkham at night. Apart from some drunkards who were drunk at the entrance of the alley and the patrolmen who drove them deep into the alley, there were also some young people with bronze badges on their chests.

Qin Zhibo took a closer look and saw that it was exactly the same as the medal in his wallet.

Miskatonic University is right here.

Qin Zhibo has never specifically looked up his university information. Today is the first time he knows the university where he once studied.

But now Qin Zhibo has no intention of going back to his alma mater. The current things are the most important thing.

Silently speaking all the way, the two arrived in front of a single-family villa that was almost on the outskirts of Arkham.

Night crows circle and crow on the mansard roof, and an ominous and gloomy atmosphere surrounds the place.

Next to the white wooden railing door, a golden metal plate marks the name of the building.

Arkham Achievers Club

Thanks for the tip from Vinegar Spilled Feather Pillow!

I had finished writing it a long time ago, but the first chapter needs to be reviewed. Maybe it’s because “sacrifice” is not allowed in the chapter title, and I’m paralyzed...
