Secret: I can play two paths

Chapter 180 Captain Dunn took the wrong script

The Nighthawks eventually erected a monument for Klein—

Because there was no body and they didn't dare to notify Klein's family, even the funeral was kept simple.

Of course, the Nighthawks and the others didn't have the face to face Klein's family.

If Klein's brother and sister showed up at the funeral, they wouldn't know how to respond.

Everyone gathered in front of the new tombstone with a black-and-white photo of Klein that looked very bookish.

The epitaph here consists of three lines:

"The best colleague;" - This comes from Leonard.

"A trustworthy guardian;" - This comes from Old Neil and others.

"A reliable partner." - This comes from Captain Dunn.

……

After a mourning period, everyone has their own thoughts.

Old Neil couldn't believe it all. He felt that it was all more like a dream. He couldn't believe that it just happened and ended like this.

In fact, he had already thought about the possibility of casualties among the Nighthawks, but he did not expect that it would be Klein, a member who had just graduated from college and had joined the Nighthawks team less than two months ago.

Ugh……

Clearly, he could bring me hope of resolving the out-of-control pollution caused by the evil god, but when it came to him, he had to sacrifice himself like this?
Although it seems that Klein may still have some secrets, the person is dead, so why bother thinking so much?

Old Neil looked at Leonard. This normally cynical young man now had a look of regret on his face, as well as anger towards the murderer behind the scenes.

Ugh……

Then go ahead…

Now Old Neil has become a combat scholar, and due to the loss of the Holy Ashes in Tingen City, most of the dangerous seals have been moved.

Therefore, if Old Neil and the other Nighthawks members stayed here, it would be enough for the Nighthawks team in Tingen City to retain the proper configuration of a Nighthawks team after losing two members. No, with Captain Dunn who wanted to go to Backlund Parish, there should be three members.

In a sad atmosphere, the Nighthawks of the Blackthorn Security Company gradually left, and finally only Old Neil and Captain Dunn were left standing in front of Klein's tombstone.

With Klein's help, they all got a fresh start in life, but Klein, who was young and talented and should have had a bright future, ended up stagnating here forever.

Captain Dunn's heart was filled with nostalgia. If it weren't for Klein, perhaps he and Daly would not have been able to understand each other's feelings until now.

Watching everyone leave, Captain Dunn stared at Klein's tombstone in a daze.

At this time, Old Neil spoke in a hoarse and low voice:

"Alright, Dunn. Let's go."

Since being enlightened that day, Old Neil no longer found it so difficult to accept the deaths of his relatives and friends.

Perhaps only by living well with their memories in mind can we live up to the sacrifices of those around us.

Dunn just shook his head silently, standing quietly in front of Klein's tombstone, looking at the bookish face in the black and white photo.

Seeing Dunn like this, Old Neil sighed in his heart, then turned and left.

Dunn watched quietly. For some reason, his vision became blurred again. He vaguely recalled that day when he saw Klein turn his head and cast a recovery spell on him without explanation.

If it weren't for the consumption of those talismans, perhaps Klein would have survived the attack.

Klein... Dunn shouted silently.

He stood there like a statue for several minutes, then suddenly smiled and said:

"Klein, the excuse you made that day was really lame. You even told Old Neil that you needed to go to the bathroom at such an urgent moment."

"We all know you might have some secrets, but you should at least cover them up."

"But it was really hard to have time to say more at that time." "Well... you did the same thing before, taking out those talismans of unknown origin so many times. I didn't ask about it at the time. Do you really think I forgot about it..."

"But you didn't betray my trust..."

Captain Dunn paused for a moment, shook his head and sighed:
"I don't know what I'm saying now. I was clearly prepared to die, but in the end, it was you who died..."

As he was speaking, he suddenly couldn't continue, tears streaming down his face. Finally, Dunn lost his usual calmness and choked up as he shouted:

"Klein...we don't want you to die either."

Dunn suddenly closed his eyes, and his fists clenched and unclenched at some point.

He took out a piece of paper with a black and white photo and a few lines of text on it.

The black and white photo showed a middle-aged man wearing a double-breasted pure black clergy robe and a soft hat. His hair was dark gold and his pupils were so blue that they looked like dark black. He had a high nose bridge, tightly pursed lips, and his facial features were like classical sculptures without a single wrinkle. The most eye-catching feature was that he was blind in one eye.

This is the wanted poster for Ince Zangwill.

"Ince Zangwill, male, 0 years old, former archbishop, failed promotion to 'gatekeeper', seduced by the devil, degenerated into evil, and absconded with the Sealed Artifact '08-'."

He has used the church to find out who killed Klein that day and the real murderer who was behind this series of events!
The former archbishop arranged this series of events in order to obtain Saint Selina's ashes and advance across paths to become a Sequence 4 "Night Watcher".

It’s just that originally the former archbishop should have targeted him more, but somehow he ended up attacking Klein more severely.

Of course, besides Ince Zangwill, there was also Lanevus.

If he hadn't deliberately wanted to carry out the ceremony, Klein wouldn't have had to pay the price of having his body taken away by spiritual creatures after his death in order to prevent the ceremony from being successfully held.

According to the information obtained from the on-site psychic, it seems that the fraudster Lanevus was taken to Backlund's Aurora Society.

In short, these two people are the targets of Dunn's revenge now.

Coincidentally, Dunn also applied to go to the Backlund Diocese in order to become even stronger.

Dunn tore up Ince Zangwill's wanted poster bit by bit in front of Klein's tombstone.

He looked reserved, with no expression on his face anymore, and turned around to walk out of the cemetery.

Then Dunn saw someone he wasn't expecting.

Is he the one who jumped from being an informant to becoming a person favored by God?

It seems that he and Klein have also had a lot of contact...

Not sure if his sadness had been seen, Dunn greeted him, then watched him walk to the tombstone and said something comfortingly:
"Maybe you don't have to be so sad? I'm sure Klein doesn't want you to be like this either."

"No, it's my fault. I didn't even leave his body behind..." Dunn's words were vague.

The scene became quiet again for a while, and the Lord Favored by God opposite seemed to be at a loss for words for some reason.

It was not until a while later that His Excellency the God-Favored One came back:

"Feel sorry."

Why say sorry?
Dunn, feeling strange, looked at the God-favored One in confusion, and heard him explain as if to change the subject:
"But is there a possibility that Klein was only seriously injured and not completely dead?"

……

Star didn't explain too much to Dunn. It would be best if Dunn could figure it out on his own.

Anyway, everyone at that time saw Klein being taken away by that powerful spiritual creature, so any problems could be blamed on the messenger lady.

Well, taking the bodies away has its pros and cons - for example, Captain Dunn's guilty look over there makes me feel a little ashamed.

He returned home and looked at Klein, who was entering the resurrection process and was about to be resurrected.

After a while, Star saw a bronze figure, which was both unexpected and anticipated.
