"There is only one truth! The real murderer of Jack is you! His new wife Rose!"
I loudly pointed at the little woman who was sobbing in the aunt's arms. The other villagers in the room were all shocked and disbelieving. In their minds, this young couple had just been married, and they were inseparable all day long, and their relationship was extremely good.
When Jack was suddenly killed, Rose was the most heartbroken. She had fainted from crying several times. How could it be that she was the one who did it?
"The evidence is the cause of Jack's death. The knife wound on his neck was not a real fatal injury, nor was the black and blue handprint on his neck. The livid complexion was the key. He died of poisoning! The handprint on his neck was just
He was desperate to breathe. The open doors and windows and the missing necklace were just fakes pretending to be a robber's entry. "
"Evidence?! Ross, do you dare to show me your tableware? Don't tell me that all the plates were smashed!"
Obviously, the logic of this reasoning is not strict, but Rose is not a rich girl with an elite education. She is just a little village girl who has never seen the world. I suddenly yelled and shook the medicine bottle in front of her.
Shake, I suddenly panicked and lost my temper.
"...I didn't mean it, I just scared him. Who told him to take my dowry to gamble, the family can no longer open the door... Wuwuwu, who knew that Poisonous Rat Qiang would actually kill him.
"
Well, poor Mr. Jack's final cause of death was also found out, and it turned out to be rat poison necessary for killing people.
"Even if he lost all my dowry, he...he actually cheated on me with little Carl from the jewelry store next door. Hehe. Jack actually had an affair with Carl for three years. He only married me for
To cover it up, I told him never to see him again."
Well, Carl seems to be a male name. It seems that Jack's taste is quite special, but looking at Rose who was crying and laughing at the same time, he gritted his teeth and smiled angrily after saying it. That smile was obviously hysterical and neurotic.
.While sighing that this amount of information is too much, I also have some other sighs.
"It seems that for Comrade Jack, same-sex love is true love, heterosexuality is just instinct, how can you fall in love if you have different genders... No, the heterosexual relationship just ended in less than three months.
"
But for us who are just outsiders, it is enough to achieve this level. After that, we will teach the locals to solve it. But I am still very proud of being able to complete the task of finding the murderer so quickly.
"The case was magically solved in two hours. From today on, please call me Detective Luo Luo!"
"...It doesn't matter what you say, who doesn't know that this woman is the murderer? You are the only one wasting time, looking for evidence everywhere, and having so much fun."
Okay, on the wooden table over there, the smaller cat thief is playing with the cat ears on his head with an unhappy face, and the brown cat tail is hanging down weakly. It seems that the new cat woman thief Hailoy
Si is still unhappy with her new identity and equipment.
"Nonsense! I've watched more than three hundred episodes of Conan and Kindaichi's methods, and I know at least two thousand murder methods and motives. That's something you guys can easily see through. Hmm, the wisdom of mortals."
"...You seem to have forgotten that I taught you the magic of necromancy. The resentment of the deceased is all wrapped up in that woman. Even without the use of spiritualism, his remnant soul is still screaming in the room, which is clearly visible at a glance.
Remember to perform an exorcism ritual later, otherwise there may be ghosts appearing."
Can you still play like this? I was so surprised that I had forgotten this trick. It seems that the detective profession in the magical world is really difficult. When a necromancer is a policeman investigating murder cases, he will definitely find an accurate one. It is a real job grab.
Fierce, but others also continued to undermine my confidence as a famous detective.
"...There is still the smell of drug on the lips of the deceased, and it was also on the woman's hands. The smell is very fresh, probably more than two hours ago."
The archdruid with a wry smile touched his nose, but I could see the pride hidden under his seemingly calm face. As a druid specializing in transformation, he has the power of a bear, the speed of a leopard, and the speed of a dog.
His nose was like a child's play in front of him. What they were playing with was the power of the dragon, the speed of the griffon, and the sense of smell of the shadow wolf. This level of poisoning can be clearly understood with just a little sniff.
And when I cast my eyes on Coros, who was eager to try...I turned my head without saying anything. How could I not know that as a judge who specializes in judgment and a high-ranking priest of the God of Law, Sin...
There is nothing to hide in front of her. She probably doesn't even need magical techniques like lie detection. A conviction technique can solve all problems.
"Your Highness, Xiaoyu told me that she saw the woman drugging her. He and his wives seriously condemn this abominable behavior."
If we don’t mention that Little Feather is a sparrow, even sparrows can shoot from behind these days. Beifeng’s honest smile is really deceiving, but for me, the only ones in the team in front of me are Yawen and
Cohen didn't know the whole story. After all, they were cannon fodder with useless intelligence... melee combat profession.
"...Do you think lies are effective in front of a real dragon?" This is Xiao Hong who casually touched up the wound.
"Your Highness, our daily training also includes this simple detective investigation. We dark elves also have some research on drugs. From the moment we saw the corpse, we probably knew it clearly."
Seeing that I seemed depressed, Yawen, who was always honest, seemed a little embarrassed, but she would not lie to fool me.
The young apprentice Cohen did not speak, but kept nodding in agreement with my reasoning. However, as a poor boy born in a peasant family, and as a strange knight whose intelligence value is more than twice his strength value, he discovered that there was only half a bottle left as soon as he entered the door.
of pesticides and saw these clues.
But Master’s face must be given, and for me, this lame fake exclamation expression and over-exerted nodding of approval are the most powerful last-ditch attacks. It makes me even more embarrassed.
"Magic or something. It's so annoying! Just turn to the back pages and spoilers of the detective novel to see that the real murderer is evil. A famous detective never needs any magic! All we need is keen observation and imagination. Can't you just
Did Diandian make logical deductions based on the testimonies and clues, and push the prisoner into a blind corner step by step?"
Everyone's faces were full of surprise, "Why bother with so much trouble if you don't have magic anymore?" This made me even more embarrassed. It turned out that my reasoning from beginning to end was unnecessary, so the urge to burst into tears turned into practical actions.
"...I hate this unscientific world the most! How can famous detectives behave like this? Those of you who play detective games and just look at the guides are heresy!"
Seeing Ross being taken away by the villagers, the town elder Bob finally felt relieved. But no matter how chaotic the scene was, it was gratifying that a rare murder case in Buga Town had been solved. As for the man in the corner who was painting
The mage captain in the circle... Well, the mage profession has always been quite special. This was probably some kind of strange celebration ceremony. Bob very wisely pretended not to see it.
"Goose Rice Tofu, a poor monk came from the Tang Dynasty in the Middle Kingdom to the West to pray to Buddha and seek scriptures. These are my three apprentices and their mounts. The leading one is the black dragon horse. He has just learned to walk on his own. During the rebellious period, he will not be ridden by others. Black
The elf with the skin is the third apprentice Sha Monk. The one with the hooked nose is the strong man. He is Pig Wuneng who can transform into a pig. The eldest apprentice... Heloise, can you transform into a monkey? I x, actually bite
I!"
From the moment they introduced themselves to each other, the old village chief felt that this distinguished master mage seemed to have been hit by a meteorite on the head and had a very big brain.
He didn't understand anything he said, and he didn't seem to listen at all to what he said, but it seems that people can't be judged by their appearance, and the rumors that the mage gets crazier and more powerful are actually true. It was clear that he had just commissioned the commission not long ago, and in less than two hours,
The case was solved.
It was very strange for a murder to occur in the usually peaceful town. Entrusting the new adventurer to investigate the murder, he also suffered a lot of pressure and attention, especially since the members of this adventure team were very strange, including orcs, half-dragons, and elves.
, Druids, humans all have them, they are weird and seem very unreliable.
But now the facts have proven his choice. The witnesses and material evidence are all in place, and the prisoner has confessed honestly. Naturally, it has become a solid case that can be explained to the villagers. He is also very pleased with his vision and can't help but think about the adventurous team.
members expressed their thanks,
By the time Roland recovered from his depression, the fifteen silver coins earned from solving the case had turned into today's sumptuous dinner and two weeks of hotel accommodation. Although it was still not much, this was already the largest amount in a month.
A fortune was made.
Different from the epic and legendary novels, this is what a real adventure team is like, especially ordinary adventurers in the relatively peaceful Central Plains region. They spend most of their time helping Charlie's family find dogs and running errands for Little Ridley to deliver love letters.
Repeatedly in the mission, it is better to say that they are adventurers than a group of hourly paid temporary workers.
Some people become adventurers just for the exciting adventure career, but in fact, the task of slaying dragons and slaying demons is very rare, and the requirements for strength are also very high. A top adventure group that is capable of doing such tasks, even if it happens by chance
When encountering this ultra-difficult task, you must also consider whether the investment and reward are worthwhile.
For the Kingdom of Largos, which has been at peace for so many years, the country is already very peaceful. Even if a group of goblins appears on the border, it is considered a major threat. Even the Royal Knights will rush to gain some honor and military merit. Domestic adventurers
It’s even more unbelievable that mercenaries and adventurers with a little ambition will consider making a living in other countries.
Of course, if you are in a war-torn area, the adventurers and mercenaries there are even stronger than the army. They grow up fighting monsters every day and dare to take on war missions. There are several from mercenary kings to real kings.
, that’s completely two different things.
Relying on commissions alone is obviously not enough. Most of the income still relies on the spoils of missions. There are not a few people who steal sheep or eat enemies and employers. Therefore, the reputation of adventurers and mercenaries is not good, especially for newcomers who have a low reputation.
If they have no credibility, they are an example of being untrustworthy.
Therefore, most adventure groups will accumulate their own fame and reputation. A slightly higher-level mission will also have requirements for the adventure group's level and reputation, and not everyone can take it.
Old Bob chose the silver coin adventure group, which has no reputation at all, just because this kind of murder among farmers is destined to have little profit, and the commission that the town can offer is pitifully small. The big mercenary group and senior adventurers
I didn't like it at all, so I let these young people try it. Unexpectedly, they solved the case all at once, which was an unexpected surprise.
For me, choosing this border town close to the Bayer Empire is also the result of careful selection.
On one side of the place is the Elohim Mountains, which stretches for thousands of kilometers. Every week, mountain people come out of the mountains to explore the world. Being an adventurer who can support himself through hard work is obviously a good transitional occupation, so the adventurers here
Identity verification is relatively easy, and it is impossible for inspectors to go into the mountains to verify household registrations. It is also common for fellow villagers to form groups, but there are not many adventurers who choose to go to peaceful towns without oil and water.
For the Silver Coin Adventure Team, the large flow of new population means that fake identities are easy to create, the permanent population is small, and management is not strict, but it can save a lot of trouble. The Silver Coin Team can get used to it in the small town and adjust to imitate the local area.
A person's accent also makes it easier to do things in the surrounding countries.
For me, the epic mission is to be triggered in the Cloud Tower in the Kingdom of Mage, which is obviously an important mission node, but I have no idea of going directly. I don’t want to go to the Bayer Empire to see the legendary gate to the plane of the undead.
I feel a little uneasy. In order to make a more accurate judgment, it is very necessary to sneak in and see with my own eyes.
I originally planned to sneak into the Bayer Empire directly, but the extremely strict official management mechanism for adventurers and the registration mechanism for mages were obviously a big trouble. It would be great fun to be surrounded by the Undead Emperor and Bayer officials, so I decided
He chose the route of saving the country through curves.
The Kingdom of Largos is not a powerful country, but due to the kinship relationship between the royal families of the two countries, it has a good relationship with its neighboring country Bayer. Citizens of the two countries have a lot of exchanges. Although this town is not prosperous, it is not far away from the Bayer Empire.
The main road is not far away, and the official tolls and hotels are too expensive, so there are many senior businessmen who want to rest in private houses and small shops a little further away for cheap.
My idea is very simple. Since we are doing business, we naturally have the opportunity to recruit guards. When we meet a wealthy Bayer businessman with a strong identity, we can find a suitable opportunity, show enough strength, and sneak in.
The more powerful the plane gate is, the bigger it will be. Once it is activated, the elemental fluctuations it will cause will be more obvious, which cannot be concealed from others. Maybe I will be able to achieve my expected investigation goal by following the merchant around.
"But waiting is so boring. I have already found a kitten for Catherine next door six times. How about making a cat meat hot pot, or sending Heloise over to appease this cat who feeds her bones and eats every day?"
Silly boy with a lollipop."
Now that the situation in the North is improving and my time is not in a hurry, I am enjoying a happy life like a vacation.
Of course, because the racial composition of this adventure group was too patchy and they spent more money than they earned, the villagers finally regarded the adventure group as a second-rate mage born into a rich family, with a bodyguard (a strong man named Storm Eagle) and a concubine (
Elves) and pets (a certain catwoman is still biting her) are completely understandable.
And a few weeks have passed. After Xiaohong has finished the last drink in this town and all the tasks in the town have been cleared again and again, the right opportunity and merchants still have not been encountered, but another
The person we agreed to find came to him on his own.
"Lilith? Why are you here so soon, Amyra?" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
