This time when I returned to the grove, the order of priority changed.
Ronald and Patricia followed, while three investigators in regular uniforms walked in front.
After another ten minutes or so, they returned to the road beside the woods.
The driver of the taxi was still hiding in his car, not daring to say a word.
He knows exactly what to do to survive.
On the other side, three investigators, including Ronald, quickly arrived in front of the woods.
The person who reported this matter in the afternoon is right in front of me.
They naturally asked Ronald:
"Ronald, when you returned to Burrenwich in the afternoon, where did you see Larmer?"
"Right here."
Having just checked here with Patricia, Ronald naturally accurately pointed out the location of Lamer when he appeared. At the same time, he did not forget to add:
"I checked with Patricia before and found no trace."
"Then just stand there."
Spencer waved his hand and whispered to Ronald.
The investigator from Springs simply walked to the woods and softly recited a curse in a voice that only he could hear.
"..."
At first, the woods were quiet and silent.
Except for Ronald and the other five who could hear each other's movements, there was almost no sound here.
However, as time passed, especially after Spencer recited the spell.
In the open space in front of him, some strange sounds began to appear every few seconds.
Some sound like the wind blowing by, and some sound like the sound of passing small animals.
But very uniformly, these movements can only be heard but not seen.
There were constant sounds in front of nothing, as if sounds from the past were being transmitted to the present.
Almost two minutes later, there was a sound of birds flying.
A voice that cheered everyone up appeared.
——That's a man talking.
"Run away and stay——"
"..."
Although it can be distinguished that it is a human voice, the content and intonation of the voice are very awkward.
Immediately, Spencer immediately started operating his own spells.
By inverting this weird sound, it became normally distinguishable:
"You are so cowardly that you actually ran away..."
"..."
Although it had been more than a month, Ronald could still recognize that this was Lamer's voice!
Moreover, the other party's voice was quietly lamenting Ronald's escape in the afternoon.
Totally in line with the scene this afternoon.
Although it is just a sound, there is no doubt that this is a reappearance of the scene in the afternoon!
At the same time, Spencer did not interrupt his spell.
After hearing this sentence, he continued to rewind the time of the sound.
Next, the spell produced the sound of feet landing and the crow flapping its wings again.
But that’s where it ends.
Spencer's ability can indeed perfectly reproduce the sounds that have appeared in this position.
But apart from these things, there is no new gain after that.
Faced with this result, Spencer shook his head regretfully and generously admitted his shortcomings:
"No, that's all the sound left in the air."
"Other things such as magic reactions and traces of spells have been completely eliminated by the opponent and cannot be traced anymore."
This is actually powerful enough...
Looking at the investigator who even blamed himself, Ronald couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Just tell me the simplest one.
What if Spencer used his abilities for some spy work.
For example, someone had discussed something during the day or held a confidential meeting. After everything was over and everyone left, he pretended to be a cleaner and went in to clean up, and then he could listen to the entire meeting in full.
What does this equal?
This is equivalent to putting on a tape recorder while the other party is having a meeting, and then recording the entire content.
When used in the right place, it is definitely an incredible ability!
Let’s not talk about Ronald’s divergent thinking here.
After Spencer admitted that he was helpless, Nicole took the initiative to stand up.
"I can actually try this."
Walking over here with a confident look on her face, the investigator girl looked at Ronald first:
"Ronald, are you sure he looked like a crow before?"
Ronald nodded and said:
"That's right."
"That's fine."
Seeing Ronald nodding, Nicole put her hand directly on the nearby tree. Then she closed her eyes tightly. While pressing her palm on the tree trunk, she also carefully made gentle gestures on it.
Even if he couldn't see the specific movements clearly, Ronald could guess them.
What Nicole is painting with her fingers now should be the kind of runes she has always used.
The four of them watched Nicole quietly.
Also after a few minutes, the investigator girl's palms left the tree trunk and her eyes opened again.
To the four people around him, especially Spencer who admitted that he was powerless.
Nicole held her head high and spoke with great arrogance:
"I've confirmed the general situation!"
"That Larmer is the crow Ronald saw at the beginning."
"He flew here by changing into a crow, then landed on the ground and transformed into a human form. After Ronald gave up fighting him, he turned into a crow again and left."
"That's all there is to it."
"Flying as a crow, and then leaving as a crow?"
At this time, a strange investigator who had been silent until now stood up.
"Nicole, he shouldn't be from your side, right?"
"Of course it's impossible!" Nicole immediately shook her head, "Although there are people in our school who can transform into animals, they have all been recorded, and there is absolutely no one named Lamer among them."
"..."
"In this case, this guy should be a pretty powerful Salamander."
After thinking for a few seconds, the investigator continued:
"According to the records of the military confrontation and Nicole's information, only the person from the Demon Summoning School is the most suspicious. However, since the traces here have been almost wiped out by him, we have to track down its possibility.
There’s basically zero sex.”
Upon hearing this, Spencer, who had been silent, suggested:
"Then go find someone from the church. They have special inspection methods to deal with demons."
"I'll go and invite you right away. Just stay here and guard the scene."
Nicole nodded, and when she was about to leave, her eyes slipped to the taxi nearby.
Immediately, the investigator girl chuckled:
"Patricia, is it okay to borrow your cab?"
"Of course, please do."
With Patricia's consent, Nicole immediately jogged back to the suburban road.
From a distance, Ronald saw Nicole exchanging a few words with the coachman.
Then the coachman got out of the car, Nicole jumped on the carriage, and drove quickly to Burrenwich.
Immediately, four people were left in silence on this side of the woods.
There shouldn't be much for them to do until Nicole brings the church personnel.
