Mystery: The Stars Returner

Outside Trier.

"Get out of the car, we're here." Hastur said calmly, indicating to Ulrich in the carriage that he could slip away.

"Thank you."

Ulrich thanked him before getting out of the carriage. He looked at the suburbs without high walls and felt very comfortable.

When Hastur was about to drive away in the carriage, he said with hesitation and hesitation: "Can you tell me the name of the lady who saved me before?"

Hasta said with a smile on his face: "No, I will not reveal a lady's name without authorization. It is very impolite."

"If you want to know, you can return to Trier City and ask her yourself."

Hearing this, Ulrich shook his head decisively. He didn't have any bargaining chips with him now. If he returned to the city, he would definitely be caught and tied to the stake and burned alive.

"It's a pity that you don't have the courage to risk your life for a relationship."

After speaking, Hastur drove away in the carriage, leaving Ulrich with a complicated look on his face.

"Even if I really have the courage, it's impossible for others to like me."

Ulrich sighed, looked at Trier, who had lived for more than ten years, and turned to embark on his new journey.

Hastur, who was driving the carriage, did not drive the carriage directly back to the city. Instead, he placed it on the sidewalk in the suburbs and returned to Trier in an open and honest manner.

Back at the hotel, Cattleya and Sharon had already returned and were exchanging words in a low voice.

"People sent him away?"

"Well, the deal is done."

Hastur nodded, sat at the tea table, poured himself a cup of tea, and then asked Cattleya what happened after he left.

Everything went as expected, Eternal Sun's eyes were eaten by dogs, and then they were sent back to the Eternal Sun Church.

If anything changes, it will happen tonight.

But before they could hear the news of the Rose School and Eternal Sun Church taking action, they first heard a kid selling newspapers outside shouting that a big shot in the Sauron family had suddenly been assassinated.

"The Queen has taken action." Cattleya said with excitement, then went downstairs and bought three newspapers.

Hastur took one of the newspapers and read it. This was the newspaper that was urgently printed today. On the front page was the news that a certain figure in the Sauron family had been assassinated.

After reading this news, Hasta looked at the name of the newspaper again, "Intis Herald Evening News".

It was indeed a pioneer. Before other newspapers could react, they had already published this major event, without any concern that it would damage the reputation of the Sauron family.

Maybe the person behind this newspaper is Bernadette.

Cattleya, who had read the front-page news two or three times, although she did not speak, her bright eyes clearly said: "The Queen is so handsome!"

Even Sharon read it once, then pointed to a small line of text on the news content and said: "She may be in trouble."

"trouble?"

Cattleya immediately came over and looked at where Sharon's finger was pointing. It read: "The assassin is a mysterious lady."

Cattleya just thought about it for a moment and understood the meaning of what Sharon said.

With the queen's strength, if you want to assassinate someone, you don't need to show up in person, let alone be seen in person.

She might have been in some trouble, so she left such crucial information.

"You can't help much." Hastur countered Cattleya's urge to help.

Cattleya was silent for a while, then smiled slightly and said, "I believe in the queen."

Hoshi-chan, your eyes have betrayed your true thoughts.

Hastur glanced at Cattleya and smiled: "I also believe that no one in Trier can keep her."

He believed that nothing happened to Bernadette. If she really encountered an invincible enemy, Bernadette would definitely seek help from the stars.

The fact that she didn't speak proved that the situation was not that dangerous.

It is estimated that someone recognized her identity during the assassination, so this newspaper specifically mentioned the title "Mysterious Lady".

At night, the temple of the Eternal Sun Church suddenly became commotion. A group of church personnel who had just fallen asleep held torches and began to search everywhere.

Tonight, just now, the temple suddenly encountered a thief. The god's eye that was just returned today was stolen in just one night.

This made Bishop Mok, who was responsible for guarding the temple, so angry that his hair almost burned. In the end, he could only suppress his anger and anxiety and ordered people to start looking for suspicious traces.

"Where is His Majesty the Pope?"

"As of this afternoon, His Holiness the Pope is no longer in the church."

Bishop Mock thought of what happened today and secretly cursed Bernadette as to why she had to make trouble today, causing His Holiness the Pope to have to deal with the matter personally.

……

"Why do you keep chasing me?"

High above the clouds in Trier, Bernadette stared at the Pope of the Eternal Sun Church in front of her with a cold face.

If it hadn't been for His sudden intervention, the Sauron family would never have been able to discover her assassination.

"I don't have any ill intentions towards you." Rose Hurley motioned to Bernadette to calm down. He looked down at the commotion taking place below and said calmly: "I'm just waiting."

"What are you waiting for?"

"Waiting for someone to come in."

"Is it related to me?" Bernadette frowned slightly.

"It's irrelevant. I just used your appearance to divert other people's attention and give them an excellent opportunity to take action."

"You want to fish out the blasphemer hiding in the dark?"

Ross Hurley shook his head and smiled: "This statement is not accurate. They and I just have different beliefs, and they are equally loyal to their beliefs."

"You are really an old fox." Bernadette looked at the old pope again, "You also deliberately blocked it before, and you didn't give me a chance to assassinate you until today. Oh, it's in vain that the people of the Sauron family are still here. Show you as a savior.”

"This is a necessary sacrifice." There was no extra expression on Rose Hurley's face, as if the dead Sauron family figure was just a small ant visible to his followers.

"Actually, I didn't have to go to such trouble in the first place, but someone seemed to see through this and deliberately sent the things back to me. I had no choice but to let nature take its course and change the arrangements temporarily."

Rose Hurley's cloudy-looking eyes were flashing with a light that did not belong to her age.

But He didn't seem to be angry about it. Instead, there was a hint of appreciation in his words.

"Is that round stone really the eye left behind by the Eternal Blazing Sun?" Bernadette thought of the key point.

Ross Hurley smiled and said, "Yes, those are indeed the eyes of God."

……

Tonight, Trier became noisy again because of the theft of sacred objects from the Eternal Sun Church temple.

The only people who can truly enjoy the quiet tonight are those who hide in the darkness and operate underground.

"Lord Si'a, fortunately we lived up to our mission and finally stole the Eye of God from the Temple of the Eternal Sun Church!"

"You guys did a great job."

The god Si'a took the round stone that they offered respectfully. Even if he just looked at it briefly, he could see that this round stone contained power that could burn mountains and boil seas.

These are indeed the eyes of the eternal blazing sun.

Once the new sun is nourished by this eye, it is estimated that it will soon rise into the sky and replace the original eternal blazing sun.

No wonder the Mother Goddess would specially send an oracle to tell herself to complete this matter.

After confirming the value of this eye, the god Si'a then carefully asked them about the details of their theft of this eye tonight.

Tonight's success came too suddenly. He had been failing recently. He thought he would live up to the expectations of the Mother Goddess this time, but unexpectedly he succeeded.

There is a saying that goes well, when things go wrong, there must be a monster.

It's not that he suspected there was something fishy, ​​he just didn't believe in his luck.

But He has confirmed that this round stone is indeed the eye of the Eternal Blazing Sun left in the world.

Perhaps Eternal Blazing Sun's luck is lower than mine.

"The Pope of the Eternal Sun Church is not in the church tonight. He went to round up Bernadette, who assassinated a big figure in the Sauron family. This gave us the opportunity..."

The god Si'a listened silently, with a hint of ridicule at the corner of his mouth.

Rounding up Bernadette was not an easy task, and even he failed several times.

After confirming that there was nothing suspicious, Si'a, the evil god, brought the eye of the eternal blazing sun to the big black tree.

On the tree crown, the heavily covered tree branches slowly pulled away, and wisps of light began to emit.

It has been in a deep sleep, and the golden new sun rarely wakes up at this moment.

It was like the sun's first rays shining through the entire basement, dispelling all the darkness and shadows.

Compared with the beginning, this ball of light looks more and more like a real sun.

"I have retrieved the items you need."

The god Si'a suspended the eye of the eternal blazing sun in mid-air.

Under the illumination of the new sun on the tree crown, the physical seal on the surface of the Eternal Blazing Sun's eyes began to slowly peel off.

Soon, a miniature version of the sun appeared in the sky.

The two suns, one large and one small, made the god Si'a slightly close his eyes to prevent the light from being too dazzling.
