Witcher's Atelier

Chapter 359 Accepting the Commission in the Name of Love

"Pearl of the North" Novigrad, two knights who completed the recruitment mission, left Victor's alchemy workshop and went straight to the Kingfisher Tavern next to the Hierarch's Square.

The sound of a lute came from somewhere in the street, awakening a soft, light laughter like gurgling water - the joy of children.

The voice came from a colorful stall that looked like a storybook. The stall's signboard read - "Selling miracles, amulets and bait, Overwatch potions, and also doing hairdressing."

There is a note next to the sign.

"Apology"

Yesterday at work, I misheard the request and accidentally cut Mr. Lei O's hair into a bald head. I hereby apologize. In fact, the hairstyle he specified is a crew cut, but as a conscientious barber, I must emphasize again that a shaved head is the most suitable match for his head shape.

Return to "Victor's Atelier".

"Hi~!" Angoulan's eyes widened in surprise when he saw the claw marks on Leo's chest.

Although the claw marks were horrifying, fortunately the wounds had healed long ago. The bald witcher picked up the beer and said, "Since the mysterious prophet is so powerful, let me ask you to guess how this claw mark was caused?"

As soon as he finished speaking, "Dettlaff van der Eretin."

"Pfft!" All the beer he had just poured into his mouth spurted out. Leo stared at Victor in disbelief, his eyes as unbelievable as if he were seeing someone from heaven.

When she heard Dettlaff's name, even the fearless Angouleme shrank back. From the first time they met at Corleone Manor, this high-level vampire was classified as "untouchable" by her.

"Is it necessary to be so surprised? Relax, sit down, it's just the basic operations of a prophet." Victor still crossed his arms with his chest, looking calm and calm. The only thing missing was a folding fan that was Mr. Wolong.

"But there are still a lot of details I don't know and I need you to fill in, so now, tell me about the parts you know."

After finishing his beer, Leo slammed the glass down, "Before I start, I want to make it clear that I really don't know whether the so-called Beauclair Beast has anything to do with Dettlaff.

And everything I tell you, please don't tell it out unless you have to. If there is no other way, I don't want to tell you. "

"I understand, Dettlaff is your friend, and I don't want to embarrass you. I asked this question in front of them just now."

Leo took a deep breath, "The story begins a few months ago: After returning to Toussaint after parting with you, Dettlaff asked me for help. He once had a lover named Lena Wade. woman.

It is said that she is a strong and serious woman, and can tolerate Dettlaff's childishness. They met in the province of Naser and spent a wonderful time together.

Then one day, she suddenly disappeared without a trace.

Dettlaff searched for her crazily. He is a very simple person. If the love disappears, he can accept her departure rationally.

But the separation without an answer made him crazy, but it was a pity that Lena. Weed knew Dettlaff too well and always avoided him so that he could not find him. "

Hearing this, Victor let out a long sigh, "Dettlaff entrusted you to find this Lena Wade?"

"Yes, I owe him a debt of gratitude for Shasha's matter, and I didn't think this matter was that difficult. I personally went to Nasser Province to look for clues, spending a lot of time and energy, and finally I was surprised to find This woman's trail leads to Toussaint.

But when I returned to Beauclair, the first murder of the beast had occurred, and I was about to investigate when Dettlaff appeared in front of me.

He told me that he had received a threatening letter, and that his lover Reina had fallen into the hands of dangerous criminals. The criminals realized that I was tracking their whereabouts and asked Dettlaff to deport me, otherwise they would chop off his lover's body one by one. Fingers. "

"So these three claw marks are..." Angu muttered in a low voice.

Leo shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I wanted to give it a try. I told him forcefully that I would find Reina right away. But he was unwilling to take risks. These three claw marks were his warning to me. He could have easily taken the chance at that time. I disembowel him."

Victor picked up the chilled red wine, Pomerol Vineyard's "Brecher's Shore", and filled the glasses for Leo and himself.

"I waited for a few days at the market on the border of the principality for news of the second murder, as well as the knights who went to various places. Horace and Guillaume knew me, and after talking, I knew they were looking for you, so I Lead the way to ask for help."

The blond witcher picked up the wine glass and asked, "What is the specific content of asking for help?"

"My friend Dettlaff is being coerced to kill people for dark criminals and carry out some ulterior purposes. I hope you can rescue Lena Wade. I promise, Dettlaff and I will be forever grateful to you."

Swallow the red wine slowly.

Through the other party's explanation, Victor finally knew why the Beauclair Beast appeared several years in advance. It was only because the mastermind behind the scenes realized that someone was tracking his whereabouts and had to start in advance.

So he said in a low tone, "You know Leo, you are actually very close to the truth. There is only a thin layer of paper left before you can announce that the case has been solved..."

The bald witcher touched his bald head, puzzled.

"The dark criminal is the person you are looking for. The person who sent the threatening letter to Dettlaff is his former lover - Lena Wade. This fatal answer is also the reason why you must be expelled from the principality."

Leo's face flushed instantly, and then turned pale. He knew Dettlaff very well, and it was hard to imagine how angry he would be if he knew the truth!

"Wick...are you sure you are not mistaken?"

"Although it is the result of the prophet's future vision, the similarity of the murder case is very high, plus the ability to accurately and skillfully drive high-level vampires, it is difficult for someone else to be the mastermind behind the scenes..."

"Bang!" Leo punched the ground angrily, "Damn, that bitch Reina, if we tell Dettlaff the truth now, can he wake up?"

Victor shook his head, "Things are more complicated than you think. First of all, we have no evidence, and secondly, we can't find him. And if Dettlaff is as innocent as you say, I don't want to be the one who exposes the truth. God knows how he will react when he is furious?"

Leo looked ugly, picked up the red wine and drank it all in one gulp, and then suddenly woke up.

"Wick, since you knew that it was Dettlaff who did it, but you agreed to it, do you have a solution in mind?"

"I can't solve it," the blond witcher laughed mysteriously, "The one who can solve it is Angouleme. To deal with high-level vampires, we need another high-level vampire."

Leo didn't understand, and Angouleme looked confused. She didn't know what she could do.

Victor rubbed his earlobe, "Egghead, let me tell you first, the opponent is a high-level vampire. You know better than me how powerful he is. It is almost impossible to subdue him peacefully!

Even if you have the ability of prophecy, you can't predict emergencies, and without on-site inspection, you don't know whether many objective conditions can be matched.

In short, I know what you mean, and I will try my best to save Dettlaff's life. But if it is absolutely necessary..."

"Just your words are enough!" Leo stood up suddenly and bowed deeply at 90 degrees.
