Chapter 61: Witnesses

Although the little brother's words were scattered and did not have a framework, they let me know that there were two people at the scene of the crime. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

I have long known that Duke Gould died at the hands of demons, and the two figures that the little brother saw were most likely a high-ranking demon and his contractor. It's just that this kind of thing only needs to be done by the devil, so why did the contractor also appear?

However, from my brother's words, I understood that something must have happened near the Duke's Palace at the time of the incident, which meant that there must have been more witnesses. I think if we gather all the witnesses, we might be able to make new discoveries.

I could see that Ellis seemed a little confused when she knew that I was concerned about this matter, but she didn't say anything.

I immediately rushed to the duke's mansion and told Alexander to gather all the people who were in the vicinity at the time, and have each of them write a report on the situation.

That night, I carefully sorted through the materials I had in hand to see if there were any useful clues.

"I am a servant in the house, and at about 3:20 p.m. that day, the demons had already dispersed, and the young master instructed us to deal with the mess in the house, so I went out through the back door to the nearby cellar to get the carpet for replacement. As a result, he had not gone far when he saw a dark cloud floating in the sky. I was so shocked that I thought it was a demon again! It turned out that it was okay, so I continued walking. When I came back, I found that something had happened in the house. It was about 3:40 when I returned. ”

"I'm a peasant woman who lives nearby. A few days ago, my son caught a lot of fish in a mountain stream outside the city! So I dried them all and planned to make salted fish and sell them for some money. As a result, something suddenly happened in the city that day, and the fish I was drying in the open space were also damaged a lot, and I was distressed...... So when the situation in the city was a little better, I went to the open space opposite the back door of the Duke's Palace to collect fish. The back door of the Duke's Palace was open, and it was about half past three, when I saw a fireball suddenly hit the window on the second floor of the Duke's Palace, and then exploded. ”

"I saw people, and there was absolutely nothing wrong with that! There are three of them! I saw them drift straight into the Duke's Palace through the window, and then there was a scream......"

"I'm a soldier, and at half past three that afternoon, I've been fighting demons for eight hours, eight hours! I couldn't take it anymore, thinking that things were almost done, so I went to the alley behind the Duke's Palace to steal a ...... No, take a break, take a break. As a result, I saw a thunderstorm in the sky, and suddenly a dark cloud appeared, and then two figures jumped to the second floor at once, and they were moving so fast, I thought it was my own illusion at first......"

"I just went all the way, that day I hid in the cellar of someone else's house for a long time, and finally came out and wanted to rush home, so I took the path and left, which is the one opposite the back door of the Duke's Palace. At that time, I didn't hear any sound, but I saw a fireball suddenly appear in the sky, and it went straight through the window on the second floor of his house and went in. I saw a dark cloud floating in the sky, and then a figure flashed, it seemed like two, right? Then it exploded, and I was so frightened that I fell to the ground. When I got up, I found that someone in the house was shouting 'Death'. ”

"Wang ...... Wangwang...... Woo ......"

……

I read all of their descriptions of the situation and found that there were no doubts on the whole. The time of the crime was around half past three, which can already be determined. There was a suspicious cloud near the ducal palace at that time, and this was no problem. It's just that in the eyewitness accounts, does that so-called "fireball" really exist? Were there two or three people on the scene?

And these two points are the most divergent.

Ignore the fireball for the time being, there are three people in some people, so who is the third person?

If one is a demon and the other is a contractor, then who is the third person? And in other people's descriptions, this third person does not yet exist...... I can't think of a possible scenario.

Sure enough, there was still no progress, and I was already exhausted.

It was late at night. Through the window of my room, I could see that the hour hand on the clock tower in the city was already pointing to 12 o'clock. And everyone else has already fallen asleep.

Three days to go.

I'm leaving Dodro in three days, and I have to make a break before I do.

During the day, bad news came: the bodies of the nobles who had been killed in the city had been stolen one after another, apparently someone was trying to cover up something. Ellis was ordered to track it down, but so far nothing has been found.

When I think about this, my feelings become complicated: on the one hand, I can't wait to leave the Duchy of Salander and start a new life, without so many intrigues and intrigues; But on the other hand, I can't rest assured that the turmoil in the city is always unsettled and wave after wave, and I am worried that he will be calculated by others to support this huge country alone......

My thoughts began to falter, and my whole body began to feel uncomfortable, and I accidentally knocked down the contents on the table, including the manifestation agent given by Wu Yao. I was in a hurry, and I quickly reached out to take it, but although I grabbed the bottle, I knocked over its lid, and as a result, some of the liquid spilled on my hands.

The sensation of the developer on the hand is not comfortable, and it is a little numb. I quickly found a nearby cloth to wipe the potion off my hand. After wiping, I accidentally glanced at Bupa and was stunned.

There was a viscous and thick texture on the cloth, which was faintly glowing green.

I know that this potion only works on demons, could it be that this Bupa has also been touched by demons? But this is clearly something new, huh?

I couldn't help but look at my hand, and it turned out that some of the potions left on my hand were also glowing green.

Why does this agent react to me? Am I ......

Thinking of this, somehow my heart began to waver.

Don't panic, don't panic!

I comforted myself, trying to calm my mind, and suddenly it occurred to me that I hadn't been in close contact with that little devil in the first place. It must be a trace left at that time, it must be. However, my own experiences these days and the strange constitution that I was born with all show that I am not an ordinary person...... So what exactly am I?

I shuddered and closed the lid of the gel, and when I looked down, I saw that the styling solution spilled on the ground was also emitting green light. This indicates that there are also traces of demonic activity in this room.

My heart sank, and I suddenly fell asleep.

I can still comfort myself with the excuse of the little devil when I appeared on my hands before, but what are the traces on the ground?

I shook my head, telling myself to stop thinking nonsense. But I can't wait to know the truth. As a result, I tossed and turned for most of the night, experimenting with everything in the house, and it was not over until dawn.

And the results of the experiment were enough to break me. I found that everything I touched detected green fluorescence, and none of the things I had used.

At that moment, I felt like I was prostrating, so tired, so tired.

I buried myself in the warm water in the bathroom, but my heart was never cold. I grew up knowing that I was different from others, but I never thought about anything else, never thought about who I was, where I came from, but now I ......

I...... Who is it?
