  12th Up!

  The Demon Slayer!

  The moment he saw the body and heard the sound, Klein’s hairs stood on end, knowing that he had met something bad.

  Within his line of sight, the living room was decorated in bright yellow and bright, the coffee table, sofa and other things did not have the slightest abnormality, only the carpet was stained with bright red blood and slowly dipped away.

  Abdominal wounds in the empty female body side, squatting a large black dog, its mouth half-open, revealing a root of sharp and sharp people shivering white teeth, and above each tooth, there is also growth of rust-like dark red traces, which seems to be a long time to eat flesh and blood but not often cleaned up the results.

  At this moment, the large black dog still had blood-colored small intestines wrapped around several of its teeth, and was clustered with dots of torn raw meat.

  Its head shifted over, its lava-like eyes reflecting Klein, who was dressed as a laborer, reflecting his somewhat camouflaged face.

  ”Ho!” A demonstrative growl escaped the large black dog’s throat.

  It really was an animal! It’s a Sequence 6 “Demon”, and it’s about to be promoted to “Demon”! And none of the preparations I made today are aimed at it …… Klein’s mind instantly flashed through so many thoughts.

  In a flash, the black dog’s body rapidly expanded into a monster two to three meters tall, behind its back, a pair of huge bat wings slowly opened, and next to its ears, there were horns covered with mysterious patterns growing.

  Within its wet and shiny fur, flames of crimson and blue jumped out, and a strong smell of sulfur spread out.

  Almost at the same time, Klein stomped on the spot and swung his cane out without retreating, rushing towards the demonic giant dog like a cannonball.

  Stab!

  The black Demon Giant Dog swiftly lunged forward, its claws with sharp spikes swung out into shadows and instantly slapped onto Klein’s body.

  Without a sound, its claws penetrated the figure as if it was penetrating the air!

  Klein’s figure then dimmed and quickly became transparent.

  It was only an illusion!

  It was an illusion created by Klein!

  And by this time, he himself had rolled on the ground and approached the convex belly window, then with a press of his left hand, his entire body rose up into the air and crashed straight into that glass.

  After recognizing who the enemy was, he made up his mind to escape immediately!

  When that Demon Giant Dog saw this, its magma-like eyes instantly brightened, and there seemed to be flames blazing inside.

  It opened its mouth and diffused a foul-smelling stench as it let out a word full of filthy meaning, derived from the words of the demonic language:

  ”Death!”

  Poof!

  Klein’s body stopped instantly, as if his heart had been clutched hard by an invisible hand.

  The figure frozen in midair instantly thinned and faded, turning into a roughly cut paper figure.

  And this paper man was stained with red rust, mottled red rust!

  Clang, click, in two hard-to-separate movements, Klein’s figure reappeared, crashed through the convex belly window, and pounced on the stone cast street edge outside, while the double paper figure slowly floated down, burning up with sulfur-scented flames.

  With a low growl, the demonic hound lunged again, already leaping onto the windowsill.

  And a ball of crimson fire, permeated with blue, flew out of its mouth and blasted into the enemy’s path of escape.

  Klein just landed on the ground, and immediately took another roll, the crimson fireball with blue color smashed next to it, but it did not immediately explode, it seemed to be affected by the invisible force and retarded.

  Rumble!

  Waiting for Klein to escape some distance with a roll, that fireball only expanded and exploded, shattering the surrounding stone slabs.

  Seeing that the demonic giant dog was about to come after him, Klein opened his mouth in preparation.

  He shouted at the top of his voice:

  ”Kill!”

  ”Help!”

  ”Murder!”

  ”Help!”

  The sound seemed to have a special effect attached to it, and it swept far and wide in the quiet night, waking up the residents of the entire street and reaching the ears of the patrollers two blocks away.

  The demonic giant dog’s pouncing stance paused for a moment, and after thinking for a second, it retreated back into the room and began to clean up the scene.

  Klein’s running figure also disappeared in a flash amidst the cries of “Murder” and “Help!

  Inside a nearby house, the remaining charcoal in the fireplace, which had been extinguished a long time ago, rekindled with an exaggerated flame.

  As if performing a magic trick, Klein flashed into the flames and jumped out with his cane with a slight leap.

  Then, he utilized the “master key” to open doors and go through walls, quickly escaping in another direction.

  ”Whew, at this kind of time, the call for help without extraordinary power is much more useful than relying on the simulated pronunciation of the bang bang bang to shoot ……” Klein sighed while taking out a bottle of Amanda Pure Nectar, and dripped a few drops on his body.

  Because the original race of the “demon” is a dog, so he has to be careful that the other party’s special ability has a scent tracking item!

  After traveling to another crossroads, Klein paused and looked around.

  Seeing that it was quieter and had not yet been affected by anything, he busily walked to the street and hired a rental carriage.

  When the carriage traveled a long distance in the middle of the night, Klein was really relieved, knowing that the “devil” would not catch up.

  ”The master key” is really weird ah …… even let me get lost to the murder scene, in the future to use it, have to be cautious and cautious …… that really is an animal into the “Demon”…… Where did it get its magic potion and formula? Did it have a human companion? And how did it pick its targets for the serial killings in the first place?

  Well, it’s comforting to know that after determining this point, it will be much more difficult for it to commit another crime, and the probability of being caught will also increase greatly ……

  One thought and one doubt bubbled up in Klein’s mind, while the carriage raced down the wide, deserted road, running between a single gas streetlight.

  Suddenly, Klein’s mind moved, and a picture naturally emerged within his mind:

  A pea vine hanging down from the sky, intertwined into a dense forest road, but the coachman was unaware of it as he drove the coach and continued to drive on those green plants.

  Not good!

  Without hesitation, Klein lunged at the window of the carriage to jump onto the street.

  Bang! The carriage shook and he was bounced back.

  At the same time, the one pea vine literally drooped down!

  Klein frowned and tried to maneuver the flames to ignite the carriage, but his ringing fingers failed to make any sound.

  By this time, the surroundings had become unusually quiet, and even the sound of the horse’s hooves stomping on the greenery and the wheels speeding over it had disappeared.

  Klein did his best to calm himself down, and he looked out the window, only to see that the carriage had traveled halfway along the road interwoven with pea vines.

  This, this is not Beckland …… He squinted his eyes.

  It was at this moment that the carriage stopped, and outside the window was a hammock-like seat of pea vines connected in mid-air.

  A pair of feet in black leather boots dangled from there, and a soft but emotionless voice reached Klein’s ears:

  ”What were you doing just now?”

  It was the woman in the museum …… suspected of being a high sequence powerhouse …… She didn’t seem to recognize me, after all, I had used the Aztec copper whistle as a disguise before …… She should have come over when she heard the cries for help Viewed …… Klein s thoughts became unusually active at this moment.

  He swallowed deliberately and said:

  ”I’m a private detective, and I’m investigating a recent serial murder case, along with a lot of friends piece by piece.”

  ”I have a magical item called a ‘master key’ that can open doors and go through walls, but causes getting lost.”

  ”It was during this that I ran straight into the crime scene, and because I was no match, I could only run and scream for help.”

  Every word I said is true …… Klein added silently in his mind.

  After he finished speaking, there was briefly no response from outside, but he felt a line of sight piercing through the compartment, penetrating the obstruction, directly scrutinizing the items he was carrying.

  Luckily, I was safe and left the Aztec copper whistle and bookmark on top of the gray mist …… At this moment, Klein was so thankful.

  Prudence and caution really did work!

  After that unspeakably parted and difficult silence, the soft but emotionless female voice finally spoke:

  ”That key has a certain curse; do not use it unless you must.”

  As soon as she spoke, everything around her changed suddenly; what with the pea vines, what with the forest road, what with the pathway to mid-air, it all disappeared, and the carriage was still traveling down the street, between the elegantly styled, iron-black, gas street lamps.

  Klein kept his heart in his mouth until the carriage reached the neighborhood of the East End, where he paid the fare of eight soules.

  –Normally, a hired carriage would not enter any street in the East End, for it would be likely to be robbed.

  In that one-bedroom apartment on Black Palm Street, Klein changed his clothes and went straight to bed, making no attempt to return to Minsk Street after midnight – with the 12th murder, the situation in Berkland must have gotten even tighter, and there was bound to be all sorts of scrutiny outside.

  He also did not immediately go above the gray fog to study the secret of the “bookmark”, as he had just described to the mysterious woman, just a low sequence, some extraordinary ability of the private detective.

  ”It’s been quite an exciting night with all the surprises… I’m just going to steal something… …… Well, I have to blame the Master Key for most of the problems… …… ” Klein laughed to himself and quickly fell into a deep sleep.

  Early the next morning, breathing in the choking and throat irritating mist, he slowly made his way back to the house, stopping to pick up the newspaper and mail from the mailbox.

  Upon opening the door, he casually spread out the newspaper and found the unsurprising headline on the front page:

  ”Twelfth Case!”

  ”Demon reappears, police claim to have locked up the killer!”

  ……

  As for the theft of the Kingdom Museum’s exhibit, it was only mentioned in an inconspicuous place, and it didn’t even say what kind of items had been stolen.

  The unstamped letter that arrived along with the newspaper was a water bill, which Klein needed to pay himself, and he glanced at it before casually tossing it onto the coffee table and returning himself to the second floor, where he boiled water for a soaking bath.

  Only when the water mist filled the bathroom did he seize the opportunity to take four steps against the grain and enter the gray mist above.

  Inside the ancient palace that loomed unchanged, Klein sat down and picked up the bookmark that depicted the image of Emperor Rossel.

  ”It was hard to get you!” He gently rubbed the hard paper surface and sighed silently.
