The doorbell of 121A Cork Street rang once again. Mrs. Van Rudd opened the door, hesitating slightly as she looked at the smiling man before her, then asked.
"Lorenzo?"
Joey nodded, and Mrs. Van Rudd stepped aside, watching the man's back as he walked up the stairs. She couldn't help but think that after all these years, Lorenzo had finally expanded his social circle.
Yesterday's pursuit caused some disturbance, but under the control of Purification Mechanism's public opinion, it was turned into a chase for a fugitive.
The demon was driven into a steam vent by Lancelot, and then the pipes burst due to Lancelot's strikes. Hot steam gushed out, and everyone thought it must have died from the high temperature. However, in the cleaners' subsequent sweep, they couldn't find the body. They delved into the interior of the steam vent but found nothing.
This was yet another mystery. Judging from the reform index, the demon was indeed dead, but no one found its body.
