When they heard that there was a mission, Zheng Wen and Wu Shanna's eyes lit up.
Seeing the two people looking very motivated, Xu Le smiled, being motivated is a good thing.
Joining the Night Watch is not just playing tricks. The work of the Night Watch is very dangerous, and you have to face strange things all the time.
I hope their next performance can be as strong as their motivation.
Armed with guns, uniforms, and knives, when everything was ready, Wang Shu suddenly walked out.
"Xu Le, we have been assigned a car from above, can you drive it?"
"Uh..." Xu Le was speechless for a moment.
Both he and the original owner are essentially poor people, and things like driving basically have nothing to do with him.
But fortunately, no one would do it. Wu Shana said at this time:
"I will, let me do it."
Xu Le nodded. Fortunately, a brother came forward to protect his dignity as the team leader.
"Very good, we need this kind of effective companion."
After saying that, Xu Le also glanced at Zheng Wen.
"Some girls know how to drive and take the initiative to ask for help, but you don't know how to drive and don't say anything. This is a big problem. You should learn more in the future."
Zheng Wen scratched his head. It was normal for him not to be able to drive.
And I don’t know if you can.
However, he did not dare to refute Xu Le and could only nod.
"I see."
Taking the case report, the three people got on the classic steam car equipped by the branch.
On the way, Xu Le briefly looked at the situation in the report. Cases in Shangcheng District were basically handled by the headquarters.
So this incident, not surprisingly, was a case in Xiacheng District.
However, being able to get the night watchman to come forward also shows that this matter is unusual.
Suddenly, an eyeball appeared on the glass behind Xu Le.
It also appeared in Xu Le's perception.
With this sense of peeping, Xu Le knew that Gu Jianuo was observing him again.
"Does this woman have voyeurism?"
Although he complained in his heart, Xu Le immediately picked up the file and began to explain the case to the two newcomers.
The first is to truly explain, and the second is to show talent and value in front of Gu Jianuo.
"Although we have not yet gone to the site to investigate, we can already know some of the conditions from the reports submitted by the guards.
The crime took place in the villa area next to the river, which is already an area with a very good environment.
People in Xiacheng District are generally not very expensive, so the owner of this case should be a wealthy family."
Listening to Xu Le's analysis, the two newcomers nodded.
Zheng Wen continued to look at the information on the report.
"Four servants died? Their blood was drained? No clues were found? What else can be seen from these?"
"The family is very wealthy."
"ah?"
"Four servants... If you are not a top-notch rich family, how can you have four servants that are so outrageous?"
"so."
When a group of three people arrived at the scene of the crime, Xu Le finally understood what the guard meant when he said the case was not that simple.
The whole villa is eerie. It is morning and the sun is shining brightly.
There was a strong contrast between the gloominess of the villa in front of me and the sunshine, which was very abnormal.
After ringing the doorbell a few times, a woman wearing a maid's outfit soon came out.
She was wearing pink and white clothes, with short hair with hairpins, and she wore white stockings that were one-piece. She was very cute, but also had a hint of hidden temptation.
Xu Le had seen many maid costumes in his previous life, with different styles, which made Xu Le yearn for them.
But those maids are just the fantasy of TV and anime, they are not realistic enough, but the maid in front of me is real.
A real maid may look like this.
The life of the rich is so simple and unpretentious!
Xu Le moved his eyes away from the maid's thigh and began to look at her:
"Hello, we are members of the Night Watch Team 6 in Area B. We are here to investigate the murder case here."
"Master Night Watch, you are finally here. If you don't come, this family will no longer be able to stay."
Home? This name...
It seems that it shouldn't be done by a servant, right?
Xu Le looked at the maid again.
Well, maybe he was overthinking it.
While Xu Le nodded, Gu Yinduo glanced at the beautiful maid in front of him.
Is your heart capable?
There is some fear anima, but not much, at least not as panicked as she appears to be.
A maid was able to maintain a stable state of her mental energy after facing the death of four people in her master's house, all of whom were maids. This can no longer be described as having a big heart.
Normally, after four people die in a row, her fear power should reach a very high level even if she doesn't run away.
Is there something wrong with this woman?
Everyone walked into the villa. The owners were a couple, about 40 years old.
After meeting Xu Le and the others, the house owner's wife quickly thanked them.
"Masters of the Night Watch, you are finally here."
"Don't be impatient. We will handle your situation here. Please trust our ability."
After Xu Le said these words, the hostess's expression became a little calmer, and her anima gradually declined.
From this point of view, the anima level of the mistress in front of me is more realistic.
"Tell me briefly about the situation in your family. When did the first death occur?"
"It was 12 days ago."
"Did you delay it from 12 days ago to now?"
“We reported the crime that day, but there has been no progress in the guard’s investigation, so it was postponed until this point.
During this period, one person would die at noon every three days, and by the ninth day, four people had died.
Today is already the 12th day, and the guards really can’t find any clues to solve the case, so that’s why I’m troubling you.”
"Okay, we get it, ma'am, don't get too excited."
The hostess was a little excited, and Xu Le quickly made a downward gesture to signal her to calm down.
"Sorry, it's my problem."
At this time, Xu Le looked at the male host who had never spoken and asked proactively:
"Sir, you are the landlord here, do you have anything to add to us?"
"I...No, I just hope you can solve the case as soon as possible."
The performance of the homeowner is also a bit mediocre, but there are some ups and downs in the mood, but not too much.
Xu Le glanced at the landlord and his wife, and then at the beautiful maid. He had already begun to figure out the plot between these three people.
"The Landlord and the Beautiful Maid", "Trying to Drive the Mistress Off", "The Story of the Beautiful Maid's Rise", "The Maid Murder Case"
The plot that Xu Le imagined was probably that the maid became the new mistress in order to drive away the heroine...
But will the real case be as simple as he imagined?
Xu Le felt that the sense of voyeurism had not disappeared.
Gu Jianuo is still peeping! Haha.
"Every crime happens at noon every three days, right? Is there no other time?"
"Yes, this happens every 3 days, every time at 12 o'clock noon, no other time.
Lord Night Watchman, it’s already past 11 o’clock, can you solve the case before 12 o’clock?”
"No one can guarantee this. After all, I just came here."
"Then...I'm sorry to trouble you."
"Okay, I understand. I can look around. We will be back before 12 o'clock."
"sure."
Xu Le nodded and waved to his two subordinates, and Zheng Wen and Wu Shana followed immediately.
"Tou, what do you say?"
"Head? That's a good title. Tell us what you think."
Both of them heard the conversation between Xu Le and several members of the other party's family. In this case, the newcomers should be given some opportunities to make some judgments on their own.
Xu Le remembered that Bai Jing often let him do things.
Zheng Wen and Wu Shana looked at each other, and finally Zheng Wen made a "please come first" gesture, and Wu Shana followed suit and spoke.
"I think there is a big problem with that maid. Although she said she was scared, her attitude was too calm.
Under normal circumstances, when someone dies in the employer's family, she should have some emotional fluctuations, and the hostess's behavior is considered normal.
Another detail is that after we arrived here, the maid and the male host always communicated with each other in a subtle way.
I think there is a big problem between them, and it is very likely that the landlord cheated on the maid."
Xu Le nodded, then looked at Zheng Wen aside.
"I think so too, but I didn't notice the communication between the maid and the man."
"I didn't notice either, I was always looking at the hostess." Xu Le spread his hands.
In terms of carefulness, Wu Shana seems to be better than him and Zheng Wen.
"Actually, my thoughts are similar to yours."
"Since you think so too, Chief, why don't you arrest that maid?"
"If the case is really that simple, do you think the guards will be unable to solve it?
The report stated that they were unable to find out the cause of the servant's death, so they submitted it to us.
How could an ordinary human maid resist against warrior-level guards? One of the maids died in front of the guards. The matter was not that simple.
The faint sense of abnormality shown by the maid may be the inducement brought by the real murderer."
Xu Le's words stunned the two of them.
"The real murderer? Who is it?"
"Isn't this being investigated?"
Xu Le said as he came to the male master's room, the maid's room, and the female master's room.
Several rooms looked a little messy, as if someone had rummaged through something.
Xu Le stood in front of the dressing table in the hostess's room, picked up several medicine bottles placed on it, and squinted slightly.
"This is an anima neutralizer..."
"Maybe she was too scared recently, so she ate?"
Xu Le pondered for a while, and suddenly he said to his two subordinates:
"Oops, get down."
"What's wrong?"
"Killing people."
"Um?"
Xu Le jumped directly from the stairs on the second floor, and the two warriors Wu Shana and Zheng Wen naturally did the same thing.
As soon as they got up, they saw the maid covering her neck and kneeling on the ground with a pale face.
Without saying a word, Xu Le took out a handful of strange ashes and scattered them into the air in front of him.
He can actually see ghost species directly.
But for the sake of teaching and showing it to Gu Jianuo, I added this action that a normal night watchman would do.
Then he took out his cane and turned the handle in Xu Le's hand, turning it into a black double-barreled gun.
boom!
The psychic bullets were sprayed directly on the face of the ghost species. It is impossible for this level 1 ghost body to withstand such a spray from Xu Le.
He was immediately beaten to the point of being knocked out of his mind.
"No!" the hostess yelled. She took out a pistol from the drawer and was about to kill Xu Le.
Wu Shana and Zheng Wen in the distance immediately took out their guns and were ready to shoot.
But as students who had just left school, they couldn't pull off this shot no matter what.
boom!
As soon as the gunshot rang out, the bullet passed through Xu Le's body.
The electric current just flashed by, as if passing through the air.
"Why aren't you afraid of bullets? Go to hell!"
Bang bang bang!
At this time, the landlady was completely crazy. She raised her pistol and shot Xu Le several times.
Her anima has completely exceeded the warning level.
Xu Le shook his head slightly and pointed the gun in his hand at her.
boom!
Xu Le controlled the psychic strength of the black gun, so this shot only made a hole in the female housekeeper's chest.
It's not like it would be blown up with one shot and no bones left.
After Xu Le finished killing the man, he walked expressionlessly to the frightened male master and the maid who had not recovered, and briefly explained the situation of the case.
"It is written in the file that your name is Zhou Qiming, right? Mr. Zhou, judging from the current situation, the murder case in your family should have been solved.
The murderer is the ghost monster that I have already killed. Don't worry too much, it is only a level 1 monster.
It should be caused by some kind of obsession and resentment. There is not much ancient music and energy here anymore, and the environment is also very beautiful.
In addition, your wife is dead, so it should not appear again."
There was some sarcasm in Xu Le's words.
"Uh...got it."
The man lowered his head, he did not dare to offend the evil spirit Xu Le.
"Zheng Wen, notify the guards to come over and deal with the scene. We will leave after the guards arrive."
"Oh yes."
After the guards arrived at the villa, Xu Le and the others left naturally without saying much or investigating.
This mission, which the guards had not completed for a long time, was solved by Xu Le in only 20 minutes.
Sitting in the car, Zheng Wen and Wu Shana neither spoke nor drove.
Wu Shanna lit a cigarette for herself, and Xu Le could see her nervousness at this time from her trembling fingers.
Xu Le didn't say much, got out of the car, went to the small shop opposite, bought some ice water for the two of them, and handed it over.
"First time seeing a murderer?"
The two nodded.
"Drink some water. Are you feeling better?"
"Senior, I'm sorry." Wu Shana lowered her head.
"Tou, I haven't done it well either."
Xu Le knew that the two men were talking about the lack of shooting just now.
Indeed.
If it had been someone else, such as another level 1 warlock, if they had no defense, they would have been killed by the landlady just now.
But that situation is actually rare, and normal warlocks will be protected by warriors.
The configuration is all 2+1.
Moreover, warlocks rarely advance as aggressively as Xu Le. If Xu Le didn't have many defensive methods, he would go on slowly and eliminate threats bit by bit.
"You two really didn't do very well. Although it was your first time on a mission, your reactions and judgment were too poor.
Today's incident should be regarded as a lesson. I hope that next time I encounter a similar situation, I can shoot without hesitation.
If you cannot respond quickly, your teammates will be the ones who get hurt or even die."
"knew."
"By the way, senior, how did you know there was something wrong with the mistress."
Facing Wu Shana's question, Xu Le smiled. He could feel that Gu Jianuo was still monitoring him. It just so happened that he should show more of his strength in front of the monitor.
"You have noticed that the maid and the male master are having an affair. This is actually a correct judgment.
But you can’t just pay attention to those things. As a night watchman, you should have a broader perspective.”
Unconsciously, Xu Le used the words Bai Jing once said to him.
"Broader view?"
"Well, if you check the contents in the file, you can know that the male master is not having a tryst with this maid, but with all the maids.
The servants who died in the file were all maids, and they were all between 20 and 26 years old. One of the descriptions was that they had a beautiful face.
You only noticed the ambiguous looks between the male master and the maid, but you didn't see that the female master was also looking at the male master, but her eyes were full of hatred."
"Then what's going on with their abnormal anima? They're too calm."
"Anima neutralizer, there is anima neutralizer in the hostess's room."
"Then she might have eaten it for herself."
"If she takes anima neutralizer, her anima will not be that high. The appearance of that ghost species should be due to the mistress.
There may even be a certain relationship with the mistress, so after I killed that ghost species, she would want revenge."
"I see."
Gu Jianuo, who was spying on Xu Le, couldn't help but applaud when he heard this layer of analysis.
She may have also thought about whether it was worth spending such a high price to recruit a level 1 warlock like Xu Le.
But her thoughts now have turned into a complete yes.
This kind of talent with quick thinking and extremely high judgment is itself a very high value.
Xu Le looked at the admiration of the two newcomers in front of him, smiled and narrowed his eyes.
Was the case just now really what he said?
totally not.
As a Red Moon Warlock and possessing the power of Gu Yin's multiple visions, he actually noticed strange signs as soon as he entered the door.
Everything I did just now was to teach the two newcomers correctly.
And he just made himself look powerful in Gu Jianuo's eyes.
Only by letting Gu Jianuo recognize his own value can he have the opportunity to let Gu Jianuo fall into his own trap and turn defeat into victory.
"Okay, let's go back."
"yes."
…
After a day's work, Xu Le could still feel the sense of voyeurism when he returned home.
Xu Le wondered, doesn't this guy Gu Jianuo even have to go to work?
Are you tired after just watching him like this all day?
Xu Le began to think of ways to further induce him.
In addition to investigating the cause of Bai Jing's death, his purpose was also to use the previous medicine bottle as a prop.
But if you want to start with medicine bottles, you need a reasonable reason.
For example, push-ups.
So, under Gu Jianuo's supervision, Xu Le once again did 100 push-ups.
During this period, Gu Jianuo's surveillance was interrupted once, which lasted about 40 minutes.
Xu Le estimated that she was either going to eat or take a shower, but then she started to continue.
Just watch him complete the exercise.
At this point, Xu Le knew that his opportunity had come.
He took out the medicine bottle, poured out a tablet, put it in front of himself, and made a gesture of hesitation.
"In order to become stronger..."
Xu Le murmured, but Gu Jianuo, who was snooping, sat up directly. When she saw Xu Le taking out the pills, she even became a little nervous.
"Asshole, you can't take that medicine, stop it!"
At this time, Gu Jianuo wanted to rush directly in front of Xu Le to stop him, but fortunately Xu Le's fingers gradually dropped.
This made Gu Jianuo feel a little more relieved.
But she still became confused.
Xu Le, this guy, did 100 push-ups before, but now he wants to take medicine again.
Why does a warlock always want to improve his physical fitness?
While hesitating, Gu Jianuo had already made a decision.
"No, I have to go find Xu Le tomorrow...at least I can't let him take medicine randomly."
