Although Lin Jiu did not act with the same appearance that he used to look for trouble before, the pretentious and perfunctory search by the guards was really insulting. However, Lin Jiu was not bored enough to go out of his way to provoke him.
These kingdoms in Oz should not be underestimated. Lin Jiu judged that the characters in Oz now basically have the final say in the stories. But don’t forget that the royal family and nobles often have some identity in these stories, whether they are positive characters or
Villain characters. Especially characters like princes can also play the role of male protagonists.
Because of this, these kingdoms on the continent of Oz can still exist stably, but they do not have the absolute power as before.
"It is rumored that the current prince's madness is related to Princess Cindy. Then the murder of the witch in Metz Town is rumored to be done by Cindy, so the kingdom's power should investigate." Lin Jiu did not plan to work hard on his own.
Go collect information, maybe someone has already collected it for him.
Dui and the triggered mission told Lin Jiu that the Ice Witch had nothing to do with Cindy. Witnesses could only prove that she imitated Cindy's appearance. It is very likely that after the people sent by the kingdom investigated this, they immediately gave up the investigation.
Here in the small town of Metz.
As for why the Dussel Kingdom didn't directly deal with the Ice Witch when they had almost found out the truth. It was because they had to find a way to solve the prince incident first.
Lin Jiu could imagine that if the male protagonist of the "Cinderella" story was in a state of madness, the damage he would cause to the entire Duce Kingdom would not be comparable to that of a small ice witch who only kills people in a small town.
There is no need to compare whether it is lighter or heavier.
Then Lin Jiu's next action... no, it should be said that Honglian's action plan is very obvious. He sneaked into the camp where the guards in Metz Town were located to see if he could find any intelligence information about the murderous witch.
.
And Lin Jiu didn't just wait around, he had to find out about the rumored "evil witch" Figas. Dumb said that Sophie revealed that her stepmother did know magic, but she wasn't sure if it was black or not.
It is also unknown whether the mage and murderous witch has anything to do with her.
Lin Jiu naturally cannot ignore the existence of this kind of guy. If it is an unstable factor, then he should try to "stabilize" her first. However, Lin Jiu has a hunch that this Figas is probably not as simple as a third-rate mage character.
.
But this is better, but don’t forget his side mission, looking for the magic doll. The origin of this magic doll is related to the mage, and the Magic Guild is a direct participant in the event. If this Figas is still a powerful mage
, maybe we can also get information about the golem from her.
Compared to the hustle and bustle during the day, the town of Metz is extremely quiet at night. Every time the Ice Witch causes death, it is at night and never during the day. This is why there is no panic in the town of Metz during the day.
There are also many foreign migrants in the scene.
But it's different at night. The residents of the small town of Metz don't dare to leave their homes at all. And the spooky atmosphere makes ordinary migrants afraid to go out.
However, two figures were on the move that night, with red lotuses passing through the streets like ghosts, quietly approaching the location of the Guards' camp.
The Guard's camp is not remote, and is close to the most upscale-looking building in the town of Metz. It seems that because of the trouble during the day, the Guard is much more vigilant than before. But vigilance cannot erase the gap in strength. These small towns
The guards are enough to control ordinary people, but they are far from enough to touch the traces of Honglian.
Honglian quickly sneaked into it and hid in the darkness. The next step was to find the case room. You don’t need to think about it to know that the case room in this small town is definitely not very professional, and all kinds of cases are handled hastily.
.
After all, the general environment is like this, and no one even cares about areas far away from the royal capital. Honglian quickly found the document room by observing the flow of soldiers in the room. This place is relatively easy to find, and other rooms can be found more or less.
Some people come in and out.
There are basically no people coming or going in this room, not even the soldiers guarding it. The information in the case room is only needed to investigate the truth. But in this era, there is no one who is serious about pursuing the truth. What is placed here is
Information about some local cases, which are not kingdom secrets, has been stolen. At most, it will bring disgrace to the guards.
Hong Lian took advantage of the darkness and quietly slipped into the case room. He didn't even care whether he would leave any traces. In this era, it would be a daydream to use scientific methods to track down him. Magical means would be almost the same.
If he really used magical means, it doesn't matter whether he left any traces or not.
"Let me see what's recorded on it." Honglian entered the filing room and found that there weren't many files inside, which made it much easier for him to find the files he needed. He also understood that these files were made of sheepskin, and the cost
It's still not low, and naturally the number is not large.
Hong Lian could still easily achieve the ability of night vision at close range. There was no need to light a light source. Hong Lian checked the information recorded in this file in the desk room.
[The Ice Witch was rumored to be the same person as Cindy Witch. After investigation, it was found that her appearance was exactly the same as Cindy Witch. However, after further investigation, it was discovered that the Ice Witch was not a normal life, but was formed by a magic prop. The investigation was immediately abandoned.
This result is no surprise, how could that scary guy Cindy Witch do such a boring thing...]
There are only a few records of this incident in the files, but Honglian can feel the fear of the real Cindy recorded in the words. She also doesn’t know what Cindy did in the Duce Kingdom at that time.
Although the record was brief, this step of the plan was correct, and they directly obtained many key clues. First of all, it can be known that the Ice Witch looks exactly like Cindy, so as long as Lin Jiu and the others solve the Ice Witch incident, they will know that Xin
Di, that is, what Sophie looks like. You won’t miss any clues in the future.
Secondly, it is recorded in the file that the Ice Witch is not anyone but the product of a magic prop. Guren has every reason to suspect that this magic prop may be a fragment of the magic mirror.
Honglian didn't just look at this file. There wasn't much of it anyway, so he looked through the remaining sheepskin files. It can be found that after a certain point in time, they were more or less related to supernatural forces.
, and did not continue the investigation.
"Is this the deterrent power of Cindy!" Honglian also sighed. There is a high probability that this time point will be the Cinderella incident. After that, the Dussel Kingdom will not be able to spare any extra power to manage such incidents. Thanks to other countries, more or less
They all have similar problems. Before the change in Oz, the Kingdom of Dussel would have been annexed by neighboring countries long ago if this was the case.
Suddenly I understood why the vendor had such a big reaction when he heard them asking Cindy. This is the influence of "national conditions"!
