Operation Red Book

The place was filled with noise and everyone was questioning Mrs. Emerson. Joshua and Moriarty looked at the chaos with wide eyes. Even Dorian looked at Mrs. Emerson with innocent eyes, but there was doubt in his eyes.

"Fifteen years ago, my Cecilia died from the evil sword of the evil spirits of hell. In grief, Lucas chose to sign a contract with the evil spirits of hell, using his own soul as a guarantee to protect the safety of Her Majesty the Queen and the entire United Kingdom."

"However, he unfortunately passed away three years ago, and the evil spirits of hell devoured his soul and launched an attack on the McMillan Manor today to appease the anger of being dominated by him for fifteen years."

“Lucas and I swore to the respected queen that we must protect this evil secret and look for opportunities to eradicate the evil spirit.

But due to my inaction and negligence, the evil spirits from hell have been locked up in the ground of the manor for three years, until today when they came out to do evil. "

Mrs. Emerson's voice was powerful and carried the dignity and weight of a duchess.

“My Edward and the servants of the manor paid the price of their lives to seal the Dullahan in the manor again.

I hereby promise that all the ladies and gentlemen will return home safely today, and I will take the initiative to apologize to Her Majesty the Queen in the future. "

Mrs. Emerson and Dorian bowed to the crowd, silencing the whispering crowd.

"Prepare the carriage, clean up the scene, and notify the relevant departments. Please go in and take your seats temporarily. I will ensure that all the ladies and knights get home safely."

Mrs. Emerson gave orders to the servants, and the crowd gradually dispersed.

Joshua saw it all and felt a surge of bitterness and pain in his heart. After all, what the Duke did had to be kept secret from the public. This not only concerned the reputation of the royal family, but also the stability of British society.

This is the law of social operation and the usual rhetoric of the upper class, but Joshua still felt aggrieved. He felt disappointed and sad for the death of Cecilia and the servants.

Joshua continued to scan the crowd, eager to find Ivy and Mrs. Hudson in the chaos.

He turned his head and saw a blurry figure by the pool. The sneaky figure really caught Joshua's attention, and an ominous premonition floated in his heart again.

Dorian and Mrs. Emerson were standing behind the guests, smiling and bowing, not noticing anything was wrong behind them.

"Ah! Ah! Him! The pool! He has drawn his sword!" Joshua pointed at the fountain and shouted loudly. The premonition in his heart knocked on his heart again and again, causing a dull pain.

Moriarty was awakened, and Joshua got up and ran, but he tripped because of the severe pain in his foot after taking only two steps and fell to the ground.

Holmes was pushed by Moriarty, and he used the force to pull out the pistol from his belt, but it was too late.

There was a loud rumbling noise and the Headless Horseman jumped out of the fountain's mud on his horse.

The instigator turned around with a smile, gave Joshua and Holmes an exaggerated smile, threw the sword in his hand to the ground casually, and then disappeared from people's sight.

The headless knight didn't hesitate at all. He quickly picked up the bronze sword on the ground and swung it towards Dorian who was closest to him, heading straight for Dorian's back.

Dorian noticed something was wrong behind him and just as he turned around, the huge figure of the headless knight in front of him was completely blocked by Mrs. Emerson's tearful eyes.

Mrs. Emerson threw herself upon him and held Dorian tightly in her arms.

"Puff——"

The sword scratched Mrs. Emerson's back, her gorgeous dark green skirt was cut, blood spurted out, and the wound was burned black.

"I can't lose my child again..."

Mrs. Emerson spoke weakly in Dorian's ear, and fainted in Dorian's arms before she finished her sentence.

Dorian looked up at the headless knight who raised his sword again. His eyes turned red and his face became increasingly hideous, revealing rows of jagged teeth.

"roll!"

Dorian let out a beast-like growl from his throat, and the sound waves completely dissipated the orange-red flames in the undead horse's eyes.

The head supported by his left hand shook violently, and fear and astonishment appeared in his black eyes.

The headless knight gave his undead horse a push, turned around and galloped out of McMillan Manor. Soon, only a black dot was left.

"What should I do! Mother! Someone come quickly!"

Dorian returned to his tearful human form, and shouted to Holmes and the servants who had come.

Holmes frowned and looked at him in confusion, then he and the servants lifted Mrs. Emerson up.

"Go back to the mansion first. SCO will handle it. They will be here soon." Holmes frowned and said in a low voice.
