The Villain Saint is my secondary account

Sophia got into the carriage, and seeing that Lucas wasn't getting on, she asked suspiciously, "What, aren't you going back to the sanctuary?"

"Sir, please go back first. I just remembered that I have some things to take care of elsewhere."

Lucas bowed slightly.

"Whatever you want, but you'll have to come back and write today's investigation report for me."

"No problem, no problem."

Chapter 122 Rebellious Couple

Watching the carriage disappear into the distance, Lucas straightened his collar and turned to walk into a nearby alley.

Before entering the alley, he made sure to look around to make sure no one was watching before he stepped inside with peace of mind.

Deep in the alley, a short figure stood there with his arms crossed, seemingly having been waiting for him for a long time.

"Have you finished on your end?"

As Lucas approached, a slightly disgruntled voice rang out, and the person in the shadows of the wall revealed themselves to be a young girl wearing a black gauze dress and with long, light blonde hair.

The girl held a small cloth bag in her arms. She was beautiful, but her pale face revealed a fragile beauty, like a pearl hidden in the night.

A pair of blood-red eyes appeared somewhat eerie, and the slightly upturned pink nose below seemed to be expressing a complaint against the newcomer.

This is a vampire girl, and she is one of the vampires that Ella met in the Fog City prison that morning.

However, when Lucas, a believer of the Holy Church, saw the vampire girl, he simply scratched his head and smiled as if they had known each other for a long time, saying, "Sorry, sorry. It's a rare weekend, I didn't expect it to take so long. You've been waiting here for a while, haven't you? You must be tired."

"I just arrived, I'm not going to wait for you that long."

The vampire girl raised her head and twitched her little nose. "How's your investigation going?"

"They discovered that it was likely a member of the Samuel Order, who had been transformed from a holy relic with vampire abilities into a blood servant."

Lucas informed the other party of the investigation results.

"Hmph, I already said it wasn't us."

The girl pouted slightly, "Those old fogies in your Holy Temple insist that we did it."

"Ahem, we can't say that about the elders, after all, who would have thought that blood servants could be created by people outside the vampire clan?"

Lucas gave a wry smile. "Of course, I know it wasn't you who did it."

"Really? I think you're just saying that because you're afraid I'll get angry, right?"

The girl stands with her hands on her hips.

"How could that be? I had no doubt at all."

"Not at all?"

"Not at all!"

"Nonsense, all men are liars."

The girl stuck out her tongue, but despite saying that, the blush on her fair cheeks showed that she was clearly pleased with what Lucas had said.

"Ugh, let's not talk about these upsetting things. The sun should be setting soon, I'll go change my clothes."

Lucas patted the girl's head affectionately. "Wearing a priest's robe to the opera is a bit inappropriate."

"promise."

The girl wasn't angry at being patted on the head; instead, she obediently handed the cloth bag to Lucas, saying, "It's unbelievable that we've known each other for a year already."

"If my mother knew that I was dating a priest every week, she would probably want to kill me."

"Oh, they're all pretty much the same."

Lucas took the clothes and, without any hesitation, lifted the priest's robe off his body, revealing his well-defined abs. "A year ago, with my unwavering faith, I wouldn't have even dared to think about something like this."

The girl blushed deeply when she saw Lucas's upper body. "You're so sure of yourself! If you hadn't confessed to me back then, I wouldn't have gotten on your pirate ship."

"I would only confess my feelings if I could tell you liked me."

Unlike his polite demeanor in front of Ella, Lucas was quite dashing after taking off his priest's robes. He tossed his neatly combed short hair into a messy mess. "Speaking of which, did you actually fall for me the first time you challenged me to a private duel, and deliberately use this method to get closer to me?"

"Bullshit! I was going to kill you back then!"

Enraged, the vampire girl raised her foot to kick Lucas, who dodged the attack. "You keep calling me a 'big winged rat,' how annoying!"

"Oh well, that's all in the past."

Lucas quickly laughed it off, then shook out the clothes from the cloth bag, pausing slightly in surprise, "A tuxedo?"

"This belongs to my brother, so please make do with it."

The girl crossed her arms and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you embarrass yourself in the theater."

"No, I mean this kind of clothing is quite luxurious for me..."

Lucas shrugged. "All my possessions combined probably aren't worth as much as this dress. How am I supposed to pay for it if it gets damaged?"

"What's there to compensate? He doesn't even need to return them. He has a whole bunch of these kinds of clothes in his closet; he wouldn't even notice if a couple were missing."

The girl waved her hand, "Even if he finds out, I'm still here. What can he do to me?"

"Well, as expected of Miss Evelina."

Lucas changed into a shirt and tuxedo, his handsome face and well-tailored clothes making him look every bit the upper-class gentleman. "Seriously, a young lady also came to the investigation team today."

"Is that the silver-haired girl with the veil this morning? Really? She went to investigate that shantytown too?"

The girl called Evelina looked astonished. "That place is so chaotic, I don't want to step into it at all. Doesn't she feel uncomfortable?"

"Yes, I can't believe it. You know, the partner that the elder arranged for me was someone who complained about from beginning to end."

"Your partner is Sofia, right? Hmph, she looks like a woman who loves to cause trouble."

"That's not fair. She's a noble lady at home, so it's normal for her to look down on it."

Lucas straightened his clothes. "How about it? Handsome, right?"

"generally."

Evelyna brought her nose close to Lucas and sniffed. "Hmm, there's a strange smell. Could it be from those shacks?"

"what!?"

Lucas quickly raised his arm and sniffed it. "No way??"

"Just kidding, look how scared you are."

Evelyn covered her mouth and chuckled, "So handsome, so incredibly handsome!"

"Compared to your brother?"

"My brother is still more handsome."

"Tsk, tsk."

Lucas frowned slightly. "Then I declare you the second most beautiful woman in my eyes."

"Huh!?? Lucas, you're asking for it!!!"

"Hey, that's double standards! Hey, stop hitting me, I haven't finished yet! Don't you want to know who's number one?"

Who is number one?

Evelina retracted her fist.

"Let me think about it first,"

Lucas rested his hand on his chin, a mischievous grin spreading across his face. "Anyway, it's not you."

"Go to hell, Lucas!!!"

……

As the two playfully wrestled in the alley, the sun finally set.

As the curtain of night fell, the fog enveloping the city grew thicker once more.

At the entrance of the Grand Theatre in the Westminster district, Lucas, dressed in a tuxedo, led Evelyn off the carriage.

The two were dressed elegantly and appropriately, blending in with the audience who entered the theater together, making it impossible to tell their original identities.

Despite the recent decline in public security in Chongqing, the general public continues to live their lives as usual and enjoy their leisure time.

It is still a vibrant and thriving city, only temporarily shrouded in some gloom.

Therefore, tonight's large-scale opera, performed by a renowned theater company, still attracted many aristocratic guests from the foggy city.

However, no one noticed that a suspicious-looking man wearing a top hat, carrying an item that looked like a cake gift box, mingled into the crowd and walked in.

Chapter 123 Reunion with the Detective

Evening, Royal Police Station.

After contacting the Sanctuary of the Mist, Ella decided to stay temporarily at a hotel that the Septians had booked in Westminster.

Since she had stayed at the Royal Police Station the previous day, Ella took the opportunity to go there again to pack up her belongings.

There weren't actually many things, since there was a portal, so Ella didn't have to carry as many bags as other noble ladies traveling far away.

After opening a portal leading directly to the inn, the accompanying young Templar Ophelia helped Ella carry some blankets, a bathrobe, and a half-length rabbit doll to her new room.

Of course, Ella didn't keep the rabbit doll she brought from the Duke's mansion because she liked it; she just wanted to sleep more comfortably while holding it.

After quickly packing up, Ella, who was about to leave the police station, ran into Detective Sherlin Ford, who was walking out with Greg, in the corridor.

"Good evening, great detective,"

Ella gave a graceful lady's bow as always. "Looks like you've finally been released."

"Indeed, breathing the air of freedom isn't easy, hahaha,"

When Mr. Ford saw Ella, a smile appeared on his thin face. "Good evening, beautiful lady."

"Does this mean the real killer of Viscountess Tekkadi has been found?"

"It took a bit of effort to find someone to help collect evidence. There was no way around it; this detective was just too strict."

Ford patted Greg on the shoulder.

"I was just following the rules."

Greg pouted in dissatisfaction.

"So, the murderer really is Viscount Tekkadi?"

Ella asked curiously.

"Oh?"

Mr. Ford's eyes lit up. "Madam, you guessed it already?"

"Well, I'm just guessing, I have no evidence."

Ella lightly touched her lips with her index finger through the thin veil, "After all, this viscount's private life is a bit chaotic."

"Your guess was spot on, hahaha."

Mr. Ford let out a hearty laugh. “The viscount’s marriage to his wife is indeed terrible, but not only because of his little quirks, but more so because of his affair with a maid.”

"maid?"

"Yes, an orc slave maid he bought from the black market,"

Ford sighed slightly, "If they were just ordinary human maids, the kingdom wouldn't encourage it, but for nobles, keeping one or two lovers wouldn't be a big deal."

"But orc slaves are different; it's a disgrace to the family. And the truth will eventually come out. The day before yesterday evening, his wife found out about it and had a fierce argument with him."

"In a moment of impulse, he strangled his wife to death."

"The Viscountess's family background is also a well-known noble family in the city. Even as a nobleman, she would not be able to easily fool anyone in this matter."

"However, our Viscount, who committed the crime of passion, did not want to go to jail because of the national law, so he had a flash of inspiration and suddenly 'came up' a clever plan."

"First, he invited me to his mansion late at night, and had a maid pretend to be his wife to give me an investigation task, while he rushed to Coral Harbor."

"Then, the orc maid disposed of the lady's body in the manner we had previously deduced, making it look like the Ripper's crime and creating a false fatal wound to mislead the police in determining the time of death."
