447 The Secret (2)

Everyone present immediately became energetic and looked at Old Green. The fallen angel incident was like a headless injustice, which made their small team unable to start and did not know how to go or where to go.

Quinn Adams appeared in time and pointed out a way, and they followed this way to rescue Old Green. What Old Green said next may be the core of the entire incident.

Only by figuring out the whole thing can they know how to go.

Old Green turned a deaf ear and continued to eat barbecue and drink beer. Everyone was not in a hurry and just wasted it.

After a few minutes, Old Green burped comfortably, sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at the cement on the ceiling, "To put it, this happened 48 years ago..."

......

Stormy nights, the Holy See Archives.

It was three in the morning, and some parts of the Holy See were lit all night long.

The archive is one of them. There are people on shifts on duty on 24 hours a day. Sometimes, people come to search for information in the middle of the night.

The Dragon Knight wore the silver armor of the Order of the Order and walked through the quiet corridor with a blank expression. The dim lights reflected his cold face, making him look more and more inhumane.

The knights of the Knights of the Order of the Tribulation are inhumane in the eyes of the Holy See members. They will stare at you with cold eyes, and then secretly investigate your interpersonal relationships, finances and other privacy.

Once they find out that you are neglecting your duties and use your power for personal gain, the blade of justice will fall.

As the leader of the Order of the Order, the Dragon Knight is abominable person and hates ghosts. Everyone is afraid of him. There are not many people who are honest these days.

But at the same time, everyone trusted him because this guy was just a stubborn man and didn't understand what a private relationship was. He always handled things impartially.

The archives department of the Holy See is as big as a library of ordinary universities. It does not contain miscellaneous books and stores biography of the Popes, Knights, Archbishops of the Cardinals and other figures; chronicles of the Holy See; major events that have happened in previous years, etc.

"Dragon Knight!" The administrator in charge of the door guard stood up and bowed.

The Dragon Knight nodded and walked straight in.

The boots stomped on the smooth marble floor, and the crisp sound echoed in the silent archives.

The Dragon Knight aims to plunge into the chronicle bookshelf, looking for the timetable year after year.

Walking in the timetable is like opening the door to history, experiencing the glory and weakness of the Holy See, making people sincerely feel awe of time.

History books are the greatest creations of mankind, no doubt about them.

“1972….”

Found.

The bookshelf is written directly above the year 1972. In addition to the Holy See chronicles, there are also some corresponding deeds. The chronicles record them, which are mostly about the civil affairs such as personnel appointments and other civilized events within the Holy See.

During the whole year, the biggest personnel change in the Holy See was the death of the Knights Templar. The Dragon Knight remembered that it was about ten years later, in 1982 that Peace officially became the Chief of the Knights Templar and removed the title of Acting Commander.

That year he was still a very young man, and went to watch the ceremony as a knight apprentice, and the Pope personally held a coronation ceremony for Perth.

The Dragon Knight is a spiritual awakened person, and he turns pages very quickly. He quickly finishes the 72-year personnel appointment and other content.

"Quinn probably didn't let me read these, well, let's look at the mission records." The Dragon Knight stuffed the book back and took out another book, which was a book that recorded the external missions and events of the Holy See.

For example, in 1972, the president of the Superpower Society came to visit and the Pope met with each other cordially, and had an in-depth exchange of opinions on the relationship between the Holy See and the Superpower Society and major international and regional issues of common concern.

The Pope pointed out...

The president said...

Things like this will not be recorded in the chronicles, but will be recorded separately.

The Dragon Knight carefully read it. In 1972, nothing happened much except for Green Adolf's sacrifice.

As he flipped over, the Dragon Knight suddenly became stunned.

He opened the book to the maximum and saw shallow, jagged-like tearing marks.

This means that one page or several pages of paper was torn, and the technique was very meticulous. If the Dragon Knight had not been careful and opened the book to the maximum, he would not have found the few disappearing pages.

If nothing unexpected happens, what Quinn Adams asked him to find will be recorded on the disappearing sheets of paper.

Obviously, something must have happened in 1972. The people behind the scenes wanted to hide it, so they tore off the papers that recorded the content.

"The clue is broken." The Dragon Knight frowned.

Quinn Adams must have not expected this.

"He asked me to find the information from 1972 by myself, which shows that I should have found the answer here, but now the clues have been cut off can only show that the people behind me have noticed this."

The paper was torn off recently.

The dragon knight turned and walked to the reception desk, the young administrator lay on the table and napped, making a slight snoring.

The Dragon Knight knocked on the table and woke him up. The administrator stood up in panic, straightening his waist, his eyes still drowsy: "What are you asking for?"

"Look at the surveillance for the past two days." said the Dragon Knight.

Surveillance cameras are everywhere in the archives room, and the surveillance content is saved for 72 hours. If someone secretly tear off the information, the surveillance can reveal his true colors.

But the Dragon Knight was disappointed and was facing the surveillance camera on the 1972 bookshelf, which was deleted.

"Huh, why is there no more?" The young administrator was also confused and scratched his head.

"Who was on duty that day?" The Dragon Knight's face did not change.

It is normal for the surveillance to be removed. As the leader of the precepts, he can circle the earth with the cases he has investigated. He is used to strong winds and waves, and he has seen them even more shrewd people.

Anything, as long as you do, will leave traces and clean up the unclean things.

You think you have no clues about one thing, it is because you didn't find clues.

No big problem.

"Joseph Charlotte." The administrator replied.

The Dragon Knight nodded, "Help me find the backup information for 1972."

Behind the administrator is a storage cabinet that is as high as the ceiling, similar to the medicine cabinet in ancient Chinese medicine shops. Each small cabinet has a year written on it, and there is a USB flash drive in it. The USB flash drive is backed up the data of the relevant year.

After finding the USB flash drive, the administrator said: "You can't take the backup information away, do you want to read it now?"

The Dragon Knight nodded, walked in, sat in front of the computer to browse the backup information.

As he expected, the backup information was the same as in the book, which meant that a small part was missing.

The Dragon Knight asked casually: "How long have you been managing the archive?"

"Six years."

"Have you seen the information from 1972?"

A smart detective must learn to take the initiative to find clues instead of staring at the clues in front of him and looking down. Such a detective has no soul.

"No." The administrator shook his head.

A smart detective must be aware of useless work.

The young administrator carefully looked at the handsome and beautiful side face of the Dragon Knight. He frowned, his eyes full of disappointment. The boss acted strangely today, making people confused, and asked with courage: "If you want to find more backups, there should be more for this year."

The Dragon Knight suddenly raised his head and looked bright: "What did you say?"

"From 1970 to 2008, my teacher participated in the writing of all the materials. The teacher has a habit of retaining failed or flawed materials in the printing process." The administrator said.

"Where?" The Dragon Knight suddenly cheered up.

"It should be kept in the basement."

"take me!"

The administrator was frightened by the dragon knight's sharp gaze and nodded repeatedly.

There is a door at the end of the archive, and behind it is a spiral staircase. Following the staircase, they come to the basement.

No one has visited here for many years. After years of fermentation, there is a strong musty smell in the air.

The young administrator found the light switch, and the white incandescent lights made a sizzling sound, flickering and dark. These bulbs have not been replaced for too long and the voltage is not very stable.

There are many books stored in the basement, piled up on rusty steel bookshelf, with dust on the writings.

The administrator covered his nose and frowned: "There are too many books, and I can't tell which one is, maybe there is, maybe there is, maybe there isn't."

The Dragon Knight nodded: "You go back to your post, just stay here alone."

The administrator left, and brought the iron door, both light and heavy, making a crisp and not loud "clang" sound in the darkness.

The Dragon Knight searched slowly, without any haste. He had a lot of time. The books in the basement were all defective products left when printing. Some were not well-formed, and some were paper problems during printing. They should have been destroyed, but because of the habits of a certain administrator, they were unexpectedly retained here.

Half an hour later, I found it.

The books in the hand of the Dragon Knight are exactly the same as the one above, but there was a problem with the ink during printing, so they are classified as defective products.

Holding the book in his hand, he didn't read it at the first time, but hesitated for a moment.

What Quinn Adams wants to tell him is in this book, which recalls the recent incident of the fallen angel and the betrayal of the Blood Knight, which is likely to be related to both of them.

Take a deep breath and turn it open.

Based on his feelings, he directly read the same place. Sure enough, the content above was something he had never seen before.

"On February 11, 1972, information about the activities of cultists came from the outskirts of Carus. They used human blood as paint to draw magic circles, suspected of offering sacrifices to evil gods, and imprisoned the souls of innocent people, and refined them into resentful spirits..."

Cultists are crazy, inhuman blood-born forces collectively called "their superstitions, bloodthirsty, and their values ​​do not match the normal blood-borns. While terrorists are pure bad people, either anti-human, or enjoy killing and destroying. The definitions of the two are different.

There have been many cultists in Europe throughout the ages, but in fact they are somewhat related to the Holy See. In some small countries with strong materialist ideas, there are usually no cultists, and some are also foreign. Because there is no soil for cults to breed there.

"The Holy See has successively sent three Knight teams to deal with them, all of which died at the hands of cultists, including the elite team led by Deputy Commander Carla Thomas."
