"Professional killer?"

The ability is outstanding, clean and neat, and the follow-up treatment is even above the professional level of the security team. Issa gave one of the most reliable and reasonable guesses.

Hodden pursed the corners of his lips, a smile appeared in his eyes, "This is a possibility, of course, we need to know whose cheese Mr. Lenoll touched to force the other party to hire a professional killer, and there is another possibility......"

Issa shook her head slightly, she seemed to already know about Hoden's speculation, "No, you don't have evidence, we didn't find any direct evidence at the scene, so we can't complete the inference. ”

But is that really the case?

With a shallow smile in his eyes, Hoden's lazy and casual expression was not moved at all, and Isa's originally determined tone and eyes couldn't help but become hesitant.

The most interesting part of the whole case is that it has nothing to do with psionics. At least on the surface, everything is disguised as a murder case between ordinary enlighteners, but there are always traces of psionic energy that tell a different story.

That's what Hoden was curious about.

Having spent a lot of time immersed in the Iwabyss Library recently, Hodden didn't expect to find the hidden mysterious information immediately, otherwise the truth would not be so simple, and he spent more time learning about the Norsnes continent step by step:

About the Umani Church, about the Sykpeth Academy, about the transcendent path of psionic energy, about the development of science and technology in the age of steam...... And so on, systematically and comprehensively opening the door to a new world, combined with the memories of the predecessors, the occurrence of common-sense errors may be decreasing.

Among them, the cleaner is included.

Hodden lazily raised his eyebrows at Issa, "You just mentioned the sweeper, as far as I know, the sweeper is still a high-end luxury item, and it is still in the first stage of promotion and testing for the time being, and it is rarely used by ordinary residents, and it is not convenient for professional killers to enter and carry it, only large factories are trying to use it, and the other is ......"

There was no need to continue to complete it, Issa automatically continued, "...... Security Corps. ”

The cleaner is an invention similar to a vacuum cleaner, developed and manufactured by Iwabuchi University of Science and Technology, and is currently in the stage of preliminary testing and use.

Although the vacuuming and cleaning effect is excellent, there are still many shortcomings and problems, in addition to the large and bulky size, the need to use psionic operation is also a problem.

The cleaner does not need to be a psyker to be able to use it, but the enlightener must be familiar with the use of the wind element, otherwise the machine is prone to malfunction, and the operation may be wrong or deviated, and the scene may become a mess: the garbage that has been cleaned up may be sprayed in the opposite direction.

Therefore, the promotion effect is temporarily mediocre, there are not many users, and there is a bit of thunder and rain.

Of course, this is a good thing for the case they are facing now, as long as the cleaner is identified, the suspicion can be narrowed down in an instant.

The rich elemental smell that Hoden captured at the crime scene came from the cleaner - although there was still an elemental smell, through the processing and mixing of the machine, all those flavors were mixed and intertwined, which formed the pungent smell that Hoden felt at that time.

It's not yet possible to determine the cause of that "wind elemental scent", but there is no doubt that the sweeper plays an important role.

Issa clearly understood this, and thoughts flooded through her mind.

However, Holden still maintains an objective attitude, and does not mean to gloat and fall into the ground, "You should reconfirm the other evidence so far." ”

“...... I've confirmed it. Issa's ability to serve as a squadron leader in the murder squad naturally has her strengths, "The conductor who sold tickets for the cabaret tour has died and suffered a cardiac arrest, but we can't find any information about him, and there's no way to confirm whether Lenoll actually watched the show. ”

The clues are cut off, and the physical evidence becomes circumstantial evidence.

Issa's temples ached, but she stopped hesitating and frustrated, adjusted her breathing, and continued.

"In addition, there are also doubts about the occupancy records of the hotel in the 12th arrondissement. The check-in records at the front desk proved to be of no reference value, because they themselves did not record them carefully, and they could be tampered with or forged at any time. Neither the receptionist nor the doorman remembered that Lenoll had ever appeared, and neither had Joya. ”

In all directions, all the clues are converging towards Horden's previous conjecture-

Of course, they can continue to track down those dead clues on the road of "Lenore is the murderer", and track them down without hitting the south wall and not looking back.

But Issa knew it was time to look forward.

She adjusted her sitting position, straightened her waist, leaned her upper body slightly in the direction of Hodden, and lowered her voice, "So, where are we now?"

"The professional misled the detectives, and he used his expertise and intuition to skillfully lay out the evidence and concoct a story:

Married to his wife, he became obsessed with Joya and killed his family and committed suicide out of a mixture of extreme shame and anger. ”

"In other words, he's already paved the way for the vigilantes, all the frameworks have been set, you just have to walk up and go, and the killer doesn't seem to have much doubt at all. The announcement of the closure of the case by the security forces is actually a natural result from the perspective of evidence and motive. ”

Looking at Howlen, Issa tilted her head, "But he met you." ”

"No, he met you. Hodden said subtly.

Issa was slightly stunned.

Holden continued without a pause, "Judging from the current clues, soldiers, mercenaries, professional killers, in fact, there are more possibilities, and the evidence we have so far is all indirect inference, and after being linked, it points to such a person, and it is difficult for us to be 100% sure who the suspect is." ”

"But the possibility of the security team has undoubtedly risen to the first place, whether it is ability or wisdom, or conditions, this is the greatest possibility, and everywhere one step ahead of the security team, completing the layout in advance, guiding you into the trap. Hodden gave his own judgment and speculation.

Things have developed now, and the situation has become awkward.

Because there seem to be people in the security team who don't want anyone to investigate, as a result, Isa's unrelenting investigation really stepped on the thunder, which also means that the follow-up investigation may encounter more obstacles, and even accidentally pull out a large number of things, and now no one can predict how things will develop next.

Issa wasn't even sure if he would be able to continue his investigation, and perhaps the truth would be buried forever.

Holden didn't rush Isa, he didn't understand the situation in the vigilantes, so there was no way to speak for Isa, not to mention that he was just a guest advisor.

The air fell silent, and the sounds of the rustling around her became more pronounced, and Issa frowned, her shoulders drooping a little weakly.
