Chapter 240 Wanted in the whole city

Lucy Thorne, who had been tit for tat with Evie and was also looking for the Holy Shroud, died like this.

He died without warning, and even Evie felt a little unreal when she saw the other party's body.

However, to Lu Qi, Lucy Thorne was no different from other Templars.

The enemy is the enemy, but one is an ordinary soldier and the other is a named mini-boss.

Although Lu Qi did not take this seriously, for the Templar camp, the death of Lucy Thorne caused waves...

...

The next day.

When Starry received the bad news, he was sitting in his study room, consulting various ancient books and documents about the Knights Templar.

The report from his subordinates left him speechless for a long time.

He sat quietly on the seat and pondered for a long time with an expressionless face before he said to himself:

"This is heartbreaking news. Her spirit and passion are still vivid in my mind. May the Father of Understanding lead her soul to the paradise on the other side..."

After a pause, Starry asked the most critical question:

"Who killed her?"

"All the Templars who followed her died without any witnesses. However, judging from the special fatal wounds, it should be the work of an assassin."

Hearing this, Starry couldn't help but have a flash of killing intent in his eyes.

Previously, he had not taken the Frye siblings, Lu Qi and others seriously, thinking that they would soon be eradicated by his men.

However, he didn't expect that the first ones to be eradicated were his own subordinates...

Lucy Thorne is one of Starry's most trusted confidants and his only candidate for the Holy Shroud.

Originally, with Thorne's research, they were already very close to the Holy Shroud.

But now, with Thorn's death, all that remains of the clues to the Holy Shroud are piles of obscure documents.

What made him even more angry was that the assassin had obtained the key to the treasure house where the Holy Shroud was stored!

The assassin got the Holy Shroud first, which was something Starry couldn't accept.

And he would never allow it to happen!

"The holy shroud will definitely be mine. Even if I use all means, I will get it!"

While muttering, Starry suddenly raised his head and shouted to his subordinates:

"Have Lord Cardigan come to see me immediately!"

"yes!"

Soon, Lord Cardigan, an important senior official of the British branch of the Templars, hurried over.

Lord Cardigan, formerly known as James Brudenell,

This retired army general, who served in the Crimean War, is now a member of the Conservative Party in the House of Commons and is the spokesperson of the Templars in Congress.

"Sir Starry, are you looking for me?"

"Yes, I need you to do something. Go to Scotland Yard, meet with the Assistant Commissioner, and ask him to issue an arrest warrant immediately."

"Wanted? [New www.xxbiquge.xyz] What's going on?"

"Thawn is dead, it was an assassin who did it."

Hearing this, Lord Cardigan's British-style beard twitched slightly and then said:

"Your Excellency, Tupenny and I have already said that those damn assassins should have been sent to the gallows long ago, but you don't think so..."

Before the other party could finish speaking, Starry's eyes sharpened and he interrupted:

"I will correct the mistakes I make myself. I don't need you to teach me what to do!"

Intimidated by Starry's momentum, Cardigan stopped immediately and asked:

"Then...who is the wanted target? Jacob Frye? Or Evie Frye?"

"No! It's the Asian named Mars!"

Starry's purpose is very clear, which is to find the assassin lurking in London!

Considering that the Frye siblings were elusive and had no portraits, making it difficult to track them, Starry targeted Lu Qi, an Asian with special appearance characteristics.

There are definitely no more than 10,000 Asians in London as a whole.

This number is pitifully small compared to London's population of more than three million.

It is precisely because of this that the search scope has been greatly reduced, and the possibility of finding Lu Qi has also been greatly increased.

Anyway, when I saw an Asian face on the street, I would rather kill the wrong person than let him go, so I pulled him into the police station and interrogated him.

Even if you can't catch the other party, you can still cause great trouble to the other party.

...

Scotland Yard's efficiency is not very high.

Since its establishment in 1829, Scotland Yard has always been understaffed and cannot truly cover every street in London.

This is also one of the important reasons why gangs are rampant and crime occurs frequently in London.

However, even so, under the personal order of the Assistant Minister, the London patrol police posted the wanted notice on the notice boards on various streets in London within a few days!

The Assassin's ally at Scotland Yard, Officer Ebelin, recognized the person on the wanted notice and immediately ran to the train station to inform the Assassins:

"...That's the thing. Mars, if I were you, I'd better not go out casually during this period of time."

After saying that, Ai Berlin handed a wanted warrant to Lu Qi.

Looking at the portrait on the wanted poster that looked somewhat similar to his own, Lu Qi couldn't help but frown.

Obviously, this is Starry's revenge.

However, I have to say that Starry's trick is very effective despite being disgusting.

Once the wanted order is issued, his Asian face will become a striking target.

In this way, he not only had to reduce the frequency of going out during the day, but also tried to avoid the patrol officers as much as possible.

Moreover, considering the safety of themselves, Connor, and Alice, they cannot continue to stay in the "House of Bells" hotel.

After all, there are too many people coming in and out of the hotel every day, and the possibility of being recognized is very high.

Looks like I'm moving...

Putting down the random thoughts in his heart, Lu Qi bowed slightly to Ai Berlin, "Thank you very much for your information, Officer Ai Berlin, I will pay attention to it."

"If you need my help if you need anything, please let me know..."

"OK."

When Lu Qi said goodbye to Ai Berlin and returned to the train, Ewei couldn't wait to express her opinion:

"Alex, how about you move to the train with Connor and Alice?"

Evie's suggestion sounds good.

The train station is the headquarters of the Nighthawk Gang and has always been managed by the Nighthawk Gang. The patrolmen dare not even step foot inside.

However, Lu Qi could accept sleeping on the train and listening to loud noises every day.

But brother and sister Connor and Alice are in a bit of a dilemma.

Just when Lu Qi was distressed, Jacob, who was sitting on the seat, said casually:
Chapter completed!
