"What's going on?" Dinah from the inspection hall lifted the curtain of the carriage, revealing her beautiful face: "Didn't you bring the person out?"

"I ran into Baron Karl." Ham bowed his head. "With the Baron guaranteeing him and the fact that he was not a big suspect, I did not force him to be taken away. I found a place inside and asked him casually."

"Karl?"

Dina looked puzzled.

"A friend of the Baron's was admitted to the Barrow Singing Company, and he was invited to the party," Ham explained.

"Um."

Dina nodded and did not continue to ask, but instead asked: "Did you find out anything?"

"No." Hamm looked regretful. "The people in the choir didn't even know that one of their companions had died. The girl named Chino was not taken seriously in the choir."

"Hmm..." Dinah stroked her smooth chin, "What did the Night Watch say?"

"They said it wasn't done by vampires. Vampires suck blood, and the dead lose their vitality." Ham's eyes flickered, and he asked curiously:

"Sir, are there really vampires?"

"I don't know either." Dinah was also unclear about this. She leaned back and sighed, "So there are still no clues!"

“No.”

Ham shook his head slightly:

"The deceased were all women, and all of them were virgins. The key point is... their identities were very special."

"Not from an aristocratic or wealthy family, but qualified to attend banquets of the upper class, such as members of a singing group, senior gardeners..."

Dinah slowly sat up straight, her face solemn.

"I doubt it," Ham continued.

"The perpetrator has a certain social status, at least he often attends high-end banquets, and has a special fetish for virgins, and it is not limited to beauty or ugliness."

One of the deceased was very ugly when he was alive.

"good."

Dinah smiled:

"Ham, you are indeed the best police officer in South City. It seems that I made the right choice to choose you to investigate."

"Sir." Ham looked up: "I heard that Earl Rekton is going to host a dinner party. I wonder if I am qualified to attend."

"Dinner..." Dinah frowned: "Ham, you are very talented, but it takes more than just talent to attend the Earl's dinner."

You need to have a certain identity and status.

"Yes." Ham said:

"I just doubt the perpetrators would have participated."

"Yeah?"

Dina hesitated for a moment, then said:

"I'll find you an invitation."

"Thank you, sir!" Ham looked happy.

Dinah shook her head slightly.

She knew very well that Ham had always wanted to join the so-called upper class, but his humble background limited his development.

They have average looks, humble backgrounds, and have not practiced breathing techniques. Even if they are extremely talented in some areas, they are just high-level workers and can never truly join the upper class.

Some things are born with you, and if you don’t have them, you don’t have them. Hard work is just a joke in the eyes of others.

Like Carl.

Although he has no talent and is inferior to Ham in every aspect, he is a nobleman.

The status of a baron surpasses all acquired efforts.

* * * “Thank you, Baron Karl.”

Percy looked grateful.

If Karl hadn't spoken up, she would have been forcibly taken away by the police, and the consequences would have been unpredictable.

Even if nothing happened, there would be more rumors in the concert group.

Now,

She was just called into a room alone and asked a few questions, which would not have any impact on her reputation.

“It should be.”

Carl shook his head:

"You don't have to be so polite."

The other party's enthusiasm made him unable to control himself.

Percy's dress was tight at the waist and had a very bold slit on the top. When she bent down, she could clearly see two bulges.

Carl is tall and some positions cannot be avoided by the public. The key is that Percy does not hide his strengths and even deliberately shows them off.

"I can't believe that Chino is dead."

"yes!"

"It's really scary. I heard that he died after a vampire sucked all his blood out of him. I wonder if it's true."

“…”

The whispers of the crowd brought Karl back to his senses. After staying for a while, he found an excuse to leave.

There's no point in staying any longer.

night.

Jenny, with a rosy face, sat in front of the dressing mirror, and her excitement took a long time to recover.

The experience at the banquet was something she had never had before, and Percy and other seniors treated her very warmly because of Carl.

She was even promised that she would be able to perform on stage officially soon, which is a treatment that a newcomer would dream of.

The apprenticeship that I thought was going to be difficult suddenly became easy.

“Karl…”

Touching her cheek, Jenny's eyes showed shyness, then she bit her thin lips and stood up.

At this time, apart from her underwear, she was only wearing a layer of gauze pajamas, showing her young and energetic figure.

Slowly pushing open the door, she quietly came to Karl's door under the dim moonlight shining through the window.

Taking a deep breath, as if she had made a major decision, Jenny raised her hand and knocked on the door.

“Da da…”

"clatter!"

There was no response from the room.

Jenny frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted her teeth and reached out to push the door.

“Sizzle…”

The door shook.

After a moment, the strong bolt made her lower her head helplessly.

"snort!"

Stamping her feet shyly, Jenny turned back to her room and slammed the door shut.

In the darkness, the landlady Mary saw the whole scene through the crack in the door and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

There was relaxation and a hint of regret in his eyes.

No one knows a girl better than her mother.

Jenny came back with an excited look on her face, and she talked nonstop about what happened at the party with her eyes shining.

When mentioning Carl, his expression was even more special.

As someone who has experienced this, how could Mary not see it?

She was obviously moved! But facing Jenny's bold move, she didn't know what to do. Should she stop her? Or should she ignore it? If her daughter could marry a noble, Mary would be very happy, but would the other party be willing to marry her? Would it be just for fun? If not...

Jenny had finally been admitted into the Barrow Singing Group. If she had a man, she would no longer be able to sing.

I'm afraid my life will be ruined because of this!

Fortunately, Carl was sleeping very soundly and should not have heard the noise outside, otherwise it would have been a big trouble.

Mysterious place.

Carl, who was practicing breathing techniques, had no idea what was happening outside. Even if he knew, he would not be moved. What happened at the banquet was insignificant to him, and he would forget about it after he left.

Besides, in his opinion, Jenny was too young and he couldn't do it.

Percy is pretty good.

"call……"

"suck!"

With orderly breathing, the power of the secret medicine seeped into his bone marrow and blood. The growth of his vitality also slowly improved his physical condition.

'The training process of a knight's squire is to condense the life seed. Once the life seed is formed, it can be promoted to a knight.'

'In the process of condensing the seeds of life, your vitality will increase, and your physical condition will naturally improve.'

"I did some research today and found out that some breathing techniques can indeed give people extraordinary abilities. The poisonous wolf breathing technique should be the one that gave me the ability to sense danger."

Women were killed one after another in the city, and their deaths were very strange. This made Carl realize that Signo City was not as safe as he had imagined.

and.

Exploring the Black City also requires strength, so you must not relax in your training.
