Act 36: Zavro's House (Part II)
Rosen glanced back at the living room, ignoring the part contaminated by Xia Nai's vomit, there was no trace of dirt in the entire room, including the kitchen, if it wasn't for the perpetrator who repaired it later, then it can be seen that the process of the battle was very fast, and the opponent subdued Zavro almost instantly.
"The blood of these corpses has been drained. ”
Aine said, her perception scanning over the three corpses, and continued.
The smell that permeated the air was supposed to be a faint smell of decay, and since the room was relatively well sealed, the corpses did not appear to decompose at a high intensity.
"The handiwork of the cultists. ”
Rosen concluded, then looked at Xia Nai, who was wiping the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief.
"You haven't seen a corpse?"
"If that's a corpse......
Xia Nai shook her head, although she had seen colleagues and enemies who died in battle in the past, but it was the first time she had seen such a crazy desecration of corpses, so she had an overreaction.
"Is this really Zavro?"
It was confirmed that Rosen pointed to the head of one of the corpses, where a man's face could be seen, but his eyes and nose had been gouged out, which looked extremely terrifying.
"Yes. ”
Nodding, Xia Nai just glanced at it and turned her face away, as if she would vomit again if she looked at it a little longer.
It's not easy to see the corpses of familiar people, especially caring about good colleagues.
"It seems that he has been killed. ”
Lawson said naturally, causing a wave of surprise from Xia Nai.
"Why? You mean Zavro is a cultist?"
She clearly did not believe that Zavro could be someone who helped the cultists.
"He wasn't necessarily a cultist, but at least he was sure that he had been commissioned by a cultist, and of course, maybe Zavro didn't even know the identity of the other party at that time. ”
Rosen explained that he had seen this routine countless times in Earth movies, so it was easy to think of it.
He left the kitchen and went straight upstairs, bypassing the living room and into the study.
The books are all swept away, and the whole room is clean and tidy, without any furniture, as if it were brand new.
Sure enough, as it was unclear whether Zavro had left a record, he took the entire study with him, and it seemed that someone had indeed made a deal with him. ”
Rosen muttered to himself, it was clear that the killer thought that taking all these things away would cut off Zavro's clue, but that just proved that there was something wrong with the case record that day.
"In this way, the person who disappeared from the report seems to be the crux of the incident. ”
The idea was simple, why only one of the original four cultists was missing, and the other three were killed, and the bodies were quickly disposed of, the reason that Rosen could imagine was that the cultist was not dead.
As for why he didn't die, where he is now, and who he is, Rosen has no way of knowing.
"Did you find anything?"
Rosen walked downstairs and asked when he saw Al Yin and Xia Nai investigating in the living room.
"I didn't find anything out of the ordinary, the furnishings here were exactly the same as when I came to his house before. ”
Xia Nai shook her head, indicating that she couldn't see any clues.
"There were no paper materials either, and Zavro's mobile terminal was destroyed. ”
Aine pointed to a charred mark in the ashtray on the table.
The carrier used by the mobile terminal is an ordinary magic crystal, so it is not difficult to destroy it.
"Looks like there's no way to find any useful information from here......
Xia Nai muttered to herself.
"Wait. ”
Lawson suddenly spoke, much to the surprise of Xia Nai.
"What's wrong?"
"What did you just say?"
Rosen asked, the question leaving Xia Nai at a loss.
"I said there's no way to find any useful information from here, uh, what's wrong with that?"
Xia Nai didn't understand what Rosen meant, and asked rhetorically.
"The previous sentence. ”
Rosen had already grasped the point, reminding Xia Nai.
"I didn't find anything special, the furnishings here are exactly the same as when I came to Zavro's house before...... Wait?"
Xia Nai felt a sudden sense of light, but soon a chill welled up her spine, and she said hesitantly.
"Normally, over the course of a year, the furnishings of a room don't stay the same?"
"Correct. ”
Rosen looked around, the room was set up in a normal way at first glance, but in fact, he noticed several subtle places, such as the teapot and teacups on the coffee table, the number of teacups was obviously larger than the number of their family of three, and since the food was already on the table, it meant that they were ready to eat, so the teacups placed here were a little abrupt.
There are also several other places where the owner of the house appears to be entertaining guests.
"The Reincarnation spell can restore the scene to its original appearance, but it must be based on the user's memory, and it is clear that the opponent should have caused great damage the moment he struck, which was later restored with the Regeneration spell. ”
Rosen expressed his conjecture, and only in this way could he explain why the room was unusually tidy, and why the blood of the three corpses had been drained, and even why the corpses became the way they were, Rosen guessed that it was possible that the bodies of the three people were destroyed during the battle, and the prisoners could have put them together to cover up the truth.
The reason for the visit was exactly the same as when Xia Nai came a year ago, because the prisoner had also come to Zavro's house at that time, so he had to restore the scene as he was at that time.
In other words, it is very likely that the prisoner was a member of the Magic Association that came together at that time.
And the way of death of the corpse, that is, the result of the spell that the prisoner is best at, in order to confuse the public, is disguised as a perverted act that can be spliced together in this way.
"Why is this happening?"
Xia Nai listened to the explanation on the road and became even more puzzled.
"If you want to prevent the body from being discovered, it would be nice to destroy it directly, wouldn't it be superfluous to do so?"
Since the other party has time to deal with the scene, why not just incinerate the body or move it somewhere else, this is where Xia Nai is confused.
"Because the other party is very confident. ”
Rosen said, gesturing to the three bodies next to the table.
"Confidence?"
"That's right, if there is no body left, then the person who came to investigate will not stay for long, and then the arrangement he left behind will not be realized. ”
Lawson replied, then asked Channa.
"Don't you think there's something strange about the smell you smell from the moment you enter this room?"
As soon as Rosen's words fell, he heard the three corpses at the dining table suddenly burst into dazzling flashes, and the shock wave of the explosion followed!
