Chapter 674, Deacon is dead


    Stealing the body, the name sounds full of stealing.


    It doesn''t look like a serious ability.


    After reading the introduction again, I can possess the dead body.


    This... seems to be of little use.


    The possession is not permanent and will speed up the decay of the body.


    In other words, it won''t last long before the possessed corpse will break down and cannot be used forever.


    I really can''t think of any specific effect.


    Check it out then!


    Not necessarily where it can be used.


    Not long after, Penny also flew back.


    "The battle is over."


    Wu Heng looked up at the battlefield. Almost all the zombies had been killed, and the skeleton army was doing some finishing work.


    "Clean the battlefield." Wu Heng ordered.


    The skeletons began to clean up the battlefield.


    Wu Heng put away the corpse cores, and then began to release the [Dead Corpse Field] along the way, turning all the corpses into skeletons.


    Wait until the battlefield is all sorted out.


    Wu Heng asked the convoy to come over, got in the car and returned to the base.


    …


    Return to Treasure Island.


    It’s also time to have breakfast at the island owner’s mansion.


    Wu Heng washed himself briefly and sat down at the dining table.


    Minnie said: "Master, Deacon Shilagui came over yesterday. It seems that someone died on the island. He asked the Skeleton Prophet to help investigate the murderer."


    Another death on the island?


    "Do you know the identity of the deceased?" Wu Heng asked.


    "I heard her talking to the Skeleton Prophet. She seemed to be a member of the association. I couldn''t hear her clearly." Minnie said, and then added, "The deacon also said that if you come back, tell her that she has something to do with you."


    "Okay." Wu Heng nodded.


    Breakfast will be over soon.


    Anderweil went out to the city hall, and the three maids also started doing their own business.


    Wu Heng picked up the phone and dialed the landline in the association''s deacon''s study. After two rings, Shi Yali''s voice came.


    "This is the association."


    "Shi Yali, I am Wu Heng, Xila Gui asked to find me? Is she in the association?" Wu Heng asked.


    "Here, come directly." Shi Yali said.


    "I''ll go over now."


    Hang up the phone and put on some clothes.


    He also took the skeleton out of the island owner''s mansion and headed to the association.


    …


    Deacon''s study.


    Wu Heng walked into the study, where the two elf sisters were sitting in their respective places.


    Seeing Wu Heng come in, they all smiled.


    Wu Heng looked at Xila Gui, "I heard that someone died on the island?"


    "A corpse was found in the alley behind the Beacon Street Tavern. He had the emblem of the Secret Whisperer of the Association in his hand. The identity of the other party has not been found yet. He should not be the Secret Whisperer of Treasure Island." Sheila Gei said directly.


    Wu Heng frowned, reacted and said, "He went to the island to deliver information? And then he was killed?"


    Sheila Gui nodded immediately, "That''s what I guessed, otherwise it would be unreasonable for a foreign Whisperer to die as soon as he arrived on Treasure Island."


    "Has the murderer been caught?"


    "Through the information provided by the Skeleton Prophet, we have determined who the murderer is, but we arrived a step too late. We have already left Treasure Island by boat. We have now drawn up a wanted poster and will send it to various associations."


    Wu Heng nodded, "Do you need my cooperation?"


    Sheila Gui asked him to come over, there must be some arrangement.


    "Go to the morgue and ask about the corpse. Shi Yali is going to call the investigators to find out what happened to the Whisperer on the island." Sheila Gui stood up and walked out, saying casually.


    Wu Heng and Shi Yali also stood up and walked outside together.


    Go down the stairs and arrive at the morgue.


    Two coroners came out to salute and handed over the autopsy report.


    Xila Gui glanced at it and said to Wu Heng: "There is nothing special. The cause of death was two fatal injuries."


    Wu Heng nodded.


    Soon, Shi Yali came down with two investigators.


    Sheila Gui said directly: "Let''s start."


    Wu Heng walked into the morgue, faced the corpse on the iron bed, and released [Conversation with the Dead].


    The next second, the corpse suddenly sat up and looked here with empty eyes.


    Wu Heng indicated that it was time to ask questions.


    Sheila Gui asked directly: "What are you doing here at Treasure Island?"


    The corpse replied, "I brought important information to be handed over to Treasure Island."


    Several people looked at each other.


    As expected, he brought some information.


    Sheela then asked, "Tell me the information you brought."


    The corpse replied, "In Netale City, the deacon of the association was assassinated and members of the association were also killed one after another. The sea near the city was filled with corpses, and the blood stained the sea. The kingdom also blocked the news and did not allow any news to be spread or Come in." After the corpse finished speaking, the entire morgue seemed to be at a standstill.


    The deacon of the association died, and the members were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, unable to leave the city and unable to send out news.


    There are also a large number of corpses that can dye the sea red, and it is feared that civilians have been involved.


    It''s even a little unbelievable that something like this would happen in the Kingdom of Yeko.


    But corpses don''t lie, not to mention the Whisperer who risked his life to go to the island to deliver the message.


    Sheela frowned, looked back at the investigator who was stunned by shock, and reminded: "Record it truthfully, and don''t change a word."


    The investigator immediately came to his senses and began recording quickly.


    Shiragui also took a deep breath and asked the third question, "Who killed the deacon of Netale City?"


    "Not sure."


    "Why did Netale City become what you said?"


    "There is a civil war going on in the city, and both the military and high-level professionals are involved."


    One last question.


    Sheila Gui pondered for a while, but decided to confirm again, "What is your status in the association?"


    "Netala City, the deacon''s spy."


    After the five questions were over, the body lay back on the iron bed with a thud.


    After asking the last question, you can confirm the authenticity of the message sent by the other party.


    The deacon''s spy is also the secret whisperer of the association.


    Sheila Gui looked at the body and waited for a long time before she said: "The body is embalmed and ready to be transported to the association headquarters. The coroner will compile the autopsy report, and the investigator will summarize the records and hand them over to me before the afternoon."


    "Yes." Several people nodded in unison.


    "Let''s go back!"


    Xila Gui led the way, followed by several people walking out.


    …


    Return to the office study.


    Xila Gui''s face was extremely ugly, and Wu Heng''s expression was also very solemn.


    There was a depressing atmosphere throughout the room.


    A resident deacon was killed and the Whisperer who reported the news died on the island. This is no small matter.


    To put it bluntly, it is challenging the authority of the association.


    If the association handles this matter lightly, it means that deacons from other places will be threatened.


    The same is true for Sheila Gui. There is no way she can let this matter go by easily.


    On the Wuheng side, Netalei City belongs to the Kingdom of Yeko, but within the scope of the association, it belongs to the Emerald Sea Surrounding Residents Association.


    He is the flag bearer and is responsible for conveying the association''s important ideas and development direction, but a deacon died inexplicably.


    Don''t appear too aloof.


    To put it more seriously, the surrounding associations are within the scope of their own flag-bearing work. If the deacon dies, he will also be affected.


    Furthermore, Wu Heng did not want this kind of thing to happen to his colleagues in the association.


    "What should I do?" Sheila Gui suddenly raised her head.


    Wu Heng said: "The matter was reported truthfully. The kingdom also blocked the border on the grounds of internal affairs. We had no choice. The association''s deacon died during this period and the news was not allowed to be released. There is reason to suspect that it is related to Netale City and requested Go directly to the island to investigate this matter."


    "Okay, I will report it normally." Sheila Gui said, and then asked: "Should you also write a report to the association? After all, you are the flag bearer."


    Wu Heng thought for a moment and said, "I can write it, but I have to think about it. I can''t just write it and send it over."


    The report sent by Xila Gui, Uncle Chen only needs the facts.


    Wu Heng needs to write down some relevant matters, preferably also the follow-up direction.


    At least it seems like they are paying more attention to this matter.


    Sheila Gui nodded in agreement.


    "When will you send the report?" Wu Heng asked next.


    "The sooner it gets done before dark, the better."


    "Then I can''t catch up on my report. I''ll send it up alone."


    "Alright."


    The two briefly discussed it, and Wu Heng got up and left.


    When he walked out of the door, he saw a team captain opening the door and walking in.


    Then came Sheila Rose''s voice.


    "Go and bring over the fifth princess of Yeke Kingdom."


    …


    Return to the island owner''s mansion.


    Wu Heng said hello to the maid and went directly upstairs into the study.


    I originally planned to catch up on some sleep after returning from the association.


    Now that this matter is happening, I have no sleep at all, and my mind is full of association matters.


    Glenda flew over and asked: "What''s wrong, the one sitting there with a sad face?"


    "A secret whisperer of the association died on the island. When we were talking to the deceased, we got the news that the deacon of Netale City was killed. It was within the scope of my flag bearer''s responsibility." Wu Heng gave a rough summary of the news he got. Again.


    Glenda listened carefully.


    After thinking for a while, he said, "It has no impact on you? It seems to be a good thing."


    "Why is this a good thing? Over at the association, I don''t know how many people are waiting to catch me."


    Glenda smiled and said, "Is the handle important? If this happened, wouldn''t it give you the opportunity to interfere with the Kingdom of Yeko?"
