Lord of the Mysteries
Chapter 280
In a corner of East Borough.
A drunken Zeon faced the wall, pulled off his pants, and began watering the moss in comfort.
When he was done, someone suddenly patted his shoulder.
Zeon couldn’t help but shiver a few times. He picked up his pants and half turned to see a short boy in a canvas jacket and cap.
The “boy” raised his head, revealing a mild and delicate face despite looking dirty.
“Xio?Why are you dressed like that?” Zeon blurted out in surprise.
Xio put her index finger to her lips to indicate the need for silence.
Then, she suppressed her voice and said, “I’ll ask and you answer. Keep your voice down.”
Astonished by her awe-inspiring presence, Zeon could only nod.
“Which of the guys, that Williams knew, have died within the past two days?” Xio asked in a low voice.
Zeon used his alcohol-paralyzed brain to carefully think for a while and said, “Gavin! Gavin was found to have drowned in the Tussock River this morning!
“He probably fell into the river last night. The poor sod doesn’t know how to swim and likes to enjoy the wind by the river when he’s drunk.”
Xio’s gaze suddenly became sharp. Without any hesitation, she asked, “Did Gavin accept Williams’s request to look for the wanted criminal, Lanevus?”
“Of course, we all got this commission from Williams. Anyway, it’s not like it’s a big deal. All we have to do is show the portrait to everyone we know and keep an eye out for someone who looks like him. Oh, Williams, he said that if there’s a clue, he’ll treat me to three days of booze and meat! The poor fellow actually died in a gas explosion. That’s why I refuse to have my landlord install a gas pipe! Uh… That was months ago. I can only afford a cheap motel now,” Gene droned on.
“What region is Gavin in charge of? Did he mention anything to you?” Xio looked sideways, pursed her lips, and stared straight at Zeon.
“H-he usually goes to the dock area near the East Balam Dock. He even met me yesterday evening and said that he went to the Workers Alliance Tavern there to spread the news of his search for Lanevus, and he also showed the portrait of Lanevus to everyone present.” Gene hiccuped.
There were many docks in Backlund, most of which were considered as the dock area and designated as “shipyards.”
“And after that? Did Gavin say what he was going to do?” Xio asked again, frowning doubtfully.
“Of course, drinking! He planned to have a good drink and then find a place to sleep! Oh, the poor sod must’ve felt hot from drinking and wanted to take a bath in the river, but he forgot he couldn’t swim, and it’s almost winter!” Zeon sighed again.
This… Gavin didn’t discover anything. He had gone to the Workers Alliance Tavern in East Balam Dock and distributed “leaflets” to search for Lanevus, but ended up meeting his demise. It even implicated Williams… The murderer’s reaction can no longer be described as extreme anymore. He’s simply a lunatic…
If I were Lanevus, the easiest option would be to immediately move somewhere else and avoid being found. Unless—unless he’s embroiled in something and cannot leave anytime soon… But I wasn’t the only one looking for him. There are also many bounty hunters. He may kill Williams, but can he kill that many people? If he had the ability, he would kill off everyone who spread wanted posters in Sivellaus Yard!
Xio was completely befuddled by the entire matter, just like how she found Williams’s death was impossible.
