Chapter 200 Secret Order
Chapter 200 Secret Order
When Ji Qiming followed Wu Ming like a follower and returned to the crowd, Michael and the others had already inspected the body and began to clean up the crime scene. The crowd was still chattering, but they seemed to be leaving.
Ji Qiming was sizing up the people, when he suddenly heard a shrill female voice beside him say: "A mystery drama always starts after the third person dies."
Ji Qiming followed the prestige, and saw Cassandra with a cold expression, her head up and her chest up, but she hurriedly left the crowd and turned into a room across the corridor.
Ji Qiming secretly marked Cassandra's room on the map, and planned to go back and study with Wu Ming where the room belonged.After the inspection, Fenrir's body was carried to the cellar, placed together with Crotor's body, and covered tightly with a white canvas.
Because it was the prince's nephew who died this time, even the prince followed into the cellar, looked at Fenrir's face covered by a white cloth with a solemn expression, and said in a hoarse voice: "Check it out for me! We must catch this murderer! "
"Obey!" Several members of the prince's guard replied in unison.
But other people looked at them with a bit of distrust in their eyes,
No wonder,
Who made them the ones with the best chance of committing a crime?
Even under the background of this game full of magic and fantasy, Ji Qiming still felt that the few people who wandered around the castle during the time of the crime were far more suspicious than the few girls who witnessed Fenrir hanging upside down outside the building from the broken window in the conservatory. Much bigger.
"In order to investigate the case, let's all tell us where we were when Fenrir broke out of the window, and what we saw and heard at that time." Wu Ming cleared his throat first, and said.
"Everyone is quite frightened when this kind of thing happens. Why don't you go back to your room and rest for a while, and we'll gather in the restaurant two hours later to gather everyone's testimony." Mengster looked at the girls with a gentle expression, He showed his playboy demeanor, if he hadn't been guarding the gate of the greenhouse at that time, Ji Qiming would have really suspected that he had ulterior motives to delay the time for the confession.
Wu Ming frowned. The longer the questioning of the confession was delayed, the more likely it would give the suspect a chance to think about fabricating a lie. He looked at the guards, but saw that the "colleagues" who should have supported him were all against him. Munster nodded at his proposal──Well, the suspicion of these escort members is even greater.
In the end, the prince made the decision: "It's settled like this,
Meet at the restaurant in two hours. "
Everyone left separately, Ji Qiming walked up to Wu Ming's side: "What about us?"
"Taking advantage of the opportunity for everyone to go back to their rooms,
Find out who owns that room. "
They hurry,
Still rushed to the second floor before the crowd, watching them open their own door and walk in.
"Which room?" Ji Qiming asked.
Wu Ming pointed to a room in front of which no one had entered, which happened to be the one Cassandra had entered before.
"Don't wait, that's Cassandra's room. I saw her go in just now." Ji Qiming said, but his mind turned a few times. She seemed to be someone who would hold a book like "The Call of the Devil", but she was watching Fenrir smash the glass in the greenhouse at the time, so the motive for killing Fenrir for stealing the book did not make sense.
──No, after all,
They didn't even know if the book was really Fenrir's.
The whole case is already complicated and confusing, but the clues in their hands are pitifully few, and several inferences are unreasonable. Ji Qiming thought hard for a long time, and felt that his head was getting big, "What should we do now?"
"Go and search the rooms of the two victims." Wu Ming said with a dull face.
Ji Qiming's eyes lit up, indeed,
They still don't know why Crotor and Fenrir were killed,
Maybe there's a clue in their room.
Because the location of the living room has been confirmed just now, and the remaining two rooms belonging to the dead are about to be released, Wu Ming took out from the package the things he touched from Crotor and Fenrir when he was examining the corpses. He took out the key, tried it, and sure enough, he successfully opened a door.
──It's Fenrir's room.
As a Wan!Brother, Fenrir's room is neater than Ji Qiming imagined, probably because he didn't stay in the room for a long time.There was only a large bed and a desk in the room. The sheets on the bed were a bit messy, as if someone had been lying there, and a few pieces of parchment were scattered on the desk. The quill was rolled aside, and the ink on it had dried up.
"Look at this." Wu Ming picked up the uppermost piece of parchment, and Ji Qiming saw a few words scrawled on it: "THE DEVILISCOMING..."
"The devil is coming... what do you mean?" Ji Qiming became more and more confused.
"do not know,
But obviously Fenrir was quite frightened. Wu Ming put away the parchment and walked around the room a few times. Every drawer was opened, even the pillow sheets were lifted, but they still didn't find Fenrir's magic book. "It seems that the book "The Call of the Devil" in Cassandra's room is really Fenrir's. " Wu Ming said.
"But Cassandra couldn't kill Fenrir,
Fenrir is at least twice her size,
She couldn't strangle a big man like that before throwing him out the window,
What's more, she was with us in the greenhouse when Fenrir broke out of the window. Ji Qiming pondered, "This book was in Cassandra's room before Fenrir died... Could it be that Fenrir himself gave it to her?"With Cassandra's nagging witch character, it is very possible to borrow books from Fenrir after the seance. "
Wu Ming nodded in agreement, "I'm more curious,
Why did Michael take the book from Cassandra's room, could Cassandra be the witch in the library that Michael followed last night..."
"If Michael is one of the perpetrators, Cassandra must not be the guardian," Ji Qiming said with a headache, "I don't want to protect that kind of crazy woman who talks and doesn't get along with her at all. .”
There were no more clues in Fenrir's room, so they went to Croto's room, perhaps because she died too early, Croto's luggage hadn't been unpacked at all, and Ji Qiming pried it open A scroll of parchment was found in her suitcase.
"What is this?" Ji Qiming looked at the scroll curiously. The scroll was sealed with wax according to the medieval custom, and a complicated coat of arms was branded on it.
"This is the Pope's coat of arms." Wu Ming poked his head to take a look, took the scroll, opened it, and read: "By the order of the Pope, investigate the heresy in the Principality, if you find the daughter of the Demon King Or those who make a contract with the devil can be wiped out on the spot. Those who hold this secret order to eliminate demons and defend the Tao represent the authority of the Holy See. Any believer of the Holy See who sees this secret order must provide help to the holder..."
"Fuck, Croto is a spy of the church?!" Ji Qiming widened his eyes, "It's like the murderer killed the police in the first round of a killing game!"
"In this way, things will become clear. The guardian we want to protect is probably the daughter of the Demon King."
Ding,
System Tianyin: "Player Doraemon and Wuming have successfully solved the puzzle of the game, and the next chapter [Princess's Rescue] has been successfully opened."
