A simple manpower search then started in advance when the new day was about to begin, and soon spread to the entire Imperial team, and the small search team led by Duan Qing then walked through every corner of the Imperial camp with the surprised eyes of countless players, checking the identity of every player in the investigation team with Cangyun Barrier and others. With the prestige and banner of Lanshan, there was no discooperation and disharmony in the process of this inspection, even a few of the thorns who were resistant to this inspection finally answered Duan Qing's question honestly under the threat of the cloud barrier.

Of course, in the end, the result of nothing was also very helpless for several people present.

"I don't seem to have seen a single word."

Reunited, the mixed team composed of the Qingling Adventure Group and the Arashiyama Team was also standing near the central square of the Fars Fortress at this time, looking at each other helplessly: "What's the matter?" There are so many teams in our dignified Imperial Adventure Group, can't we even find a guy with a loss in his name? ”

"It's not to find the murderer for the sake of the murderer, don't get the wrong direction." Sighing helplessly, Cangyun Barrier, as the leader of Lanshan, looked at Duan Qing's face with a funny gaze: "And I also said it at the beginning, I have never seen a guy with such an unlucky name in my memory." ”

"Have we gone through all the player teams?" Pushing Duan Qing's still unwilling face aside, Xue Ling Phantom Bing asked in a low voice, "Will there be any omissions or something?" ”

"Even if there is an omission, it is probably not a guy on our statistical list." Shaking a magic record stone in his hand, Cangyun Barrier replied nonchalantly, "This is the list of investigations given to us by Her Royal Highness Princess Rena, there is nothing more authoritative than this list." ”

"Anyway...... Where is Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess now? Gedmayne pinched his chin and said, "Does she know about this?" ”

"How can you not know, without explaining the reason, you think that people will give us this stone easily?" Cangyun Barrier raised her eyebrows and replied, "She's just busy meeting with the big bosses of the Duchy, so she doesn't have time to worry about this matter." ”

"So, we're still acting fairly, right?" Asahi Dongsheng smiled and pinched his nose: "Do you want to go somewhere else to rummage through the cabinets?" ”

"Don't make a fuss, we're still on someone else's territory." Zhao Liu'an of Lanshan hurriedly pressed the topic: "Even if we suspect that someone over there did it, we can't find out on someone else's head." ”

"I think it's the people of the Duchy who did it."

Saying this sentence in a heart-wrenching manner, the giant axe warrior named Asahi Dongsheng then jumped in front of everyone: "If we can't find the result here, then only this one is possible in the other camp!" That guy with a loss word is definitely a person from the principality! ”

"Don't say such unfounded things." Pressing his brows, Duan Qing, who had already recovered his mood, then said in a low voice: "Standing on the other party's standpoint, the people of the principality should have similar suspicions, not to mention that something like that happened last night, they should first thoroughly investigate the situation of their own camp like us......"

"Broken Mountain will probably do this too." Nodding his head, the Cangyun barrier on the side agreed and said, "As long as they are not too stupid, they should first find a way to eliminate their own suspicions......

"Do they know what we're after?" Xue Lingphantom Ice suddenly raised his head: "That hint of a loss word-"

"Did anyone tell them?"

Following her gaze, several people focused their eyes on the body of the thousand-fingered crane who had not spoken next to him, and it seemed that the latter, who was preoccupied, only noticed the gaze of the others after a while, and waved his hand with a surprised and panicked expression: "I, me, me, me, me...... I haven't had time to tell them yet. ”

"Forget it, there's a benefit to not telling them." Flattening his mouth, Duan Qing then withdrew his questioning eyes: "At least they will investigate this matter from a different angle, but they will not be bound by any hands and feet like us." ”

"You mean to say...... The clue we have now is not credible? Cangyun Barrier turned to look at Duan Qing's face: "Could it be that this Miss Thousand Fingered Crane is wrong?" ”

"Of course, there is a possibility of misreading, but there are other possibilities." Looking up at the clouds and impending wind and rain that were constantly covering the sky in the distance, Duan Qing replied slowly, "For example...... There are players who are not on the list, who have been lurking in our ranks or something. ”

"You mean Fallen Dreams?" Widening his eyes in surprise, Thousand-Fingered Crane exclaimed in surprise, "How is that possible? He doesn't look like he's associated with the Restoration, and there's nothing wrong with his name—"

"That's the second possibility I'd like to say." Interrupting the other party's words mercilessly, Duan Qing then smiled in a low voice: "Maybe you are wrong." ”

“…… Yes? ”

"Like reading a wrong word or something."

Facing the puzzled looks of the rest of the people, Duan Qing smiled and stretched out one of his fingers: "It's still the same sentence that the president of Lanshan said before, it's too strange to use the word 'loss' as your name, so ...... Is it possible that Xiaoqian saw other words and mistook them for a loss word? ”

There was a moment of silence in the complex team, accompanied by the thoughtful expressions of several people at the same time, and the Cangyun barrier that had been written in the air for a long time with his fingers and then slowly lowered his head, and looked back and forth on the magic stone in his hand with a suspicious gaze: "Loss...... Lose...... Well, in the state of affairs at that time, it was indeed understandable to be wrong, so-"

"What other word is similar to the word loss?"

In the eyes of several people who came together, his gaze kept scanning back and forth on the detailed list presented by the philosopher's stone: "Could it be the cloud word?" One turns left and one right, and it looks more like ......"

"How many players are there with cloud words?"

"There should be one or two, one is called Yun Tianhe, I remember it is a warrior of Luoyun Nine Heavens, and the other is called Bai Yun Duo Kai, who is a female player, but there is no guild to which he belongs......"

"Look, there are still a lot of clues...... Hmm, wait a minute, the word 'loss' you saw before is the first few words in his name? ”

"I, I remember about the last word, right? Of course, I'm not sure ......."

"The last word? Then the two people I found just now are not eligible...... Are there any other words that resemble the word loss? Preferably the last word or something......"

"The cloud word is no longer suitable, but you can also find a lot of other words with a loss word, such as this dirty word...... Hmm, what about this man called Bloodstain? ”

"Impossible, I know that guy, he's just a craftsman-type player who is good at gem setting, and his combat power is not worth mentioning at all."

"That's him."

Countless noisy voices continued to sound in the scene around this clearing, and it was still Duan Qing's voice that fell in front of the constantly rolling magic light curtain with his fingers: "We haven't checked this guy before, right?" Let's start with this person. ”

"This one is called the Nine-Fingered Beggar."

*****************************

As the name suggests, the nine-fingered beggar does only have nine fingers on his hands, and it is said that this player also has nine fingers in the real world, so they were brought together to the character setting in the virtual world. There was no time to explore what the reason for this person to give up reshaping his fingers was, and the figures belonging to Duan Qing and several people were five big and three thick and then quickly surrounded this player in the corner of the camp of the Imperial Investigation Group, so this guy, who looked quite innocent, shouted in a particularly pitiful and helpless voice: "Who are you?" What do you want to do? I've been quitting gambling for a long time! I don't have anything on me now! ”

"So that's why you got a finger cut off?"

Sighing helplessly, Duan Qing, who was sitting at the edge of this camp, looked helplessly at the ragged man who was put in front of him: "It's really pitiful, it's so miserable in the virtual world." ”

"You, you care so much about me." With a panicked expression on his face, the player named Nine-Fingered Beggars looked at each other with his eyes pulled and squinted: "What are you guys doing?" Do you dare to report your name first? ”

"I'm Linyuan Broken Water, and my name is displayed above my head." Duan Qing, who was squatting in front of him, pointed to the top of his head: "As for what for...... I'm now guarding the door for the Qingling Office, and I'm just an uncle who watches. ”

"The janitor's ...... Uncle? ”

"That's right."

Waving his hand towards the angry expression on Xue Ling Phantom Bing's face on the side, Duan Qing then put away the smile on his face: "Now-"

"I hope you can answer my next question truthfully, it's important to us."

He snapped his fingers and motioned for a few people present to pull him closer: "Do you know this Miss Thousand-Fingered Crane next to me?" ”

"No, I don't know." Sneakily glancing in the direction where the red-haired girl was, the nine-fingered beggar shrunk his neck: "Who is she?" Do I owe her money? ”

"Looks like you owe a lot of money." With a helpless sigh, Duan Qing covered his face and gestured to his side: "Next question - between ten and twelve o'clock last night, where were you?" ”

“……”

Without immediately answering the other party's question, the nine-fingered beggar's expression became even more unnatural: "You, what are you asking this for?" Why am I telling you? ”

"Looks like there's a real problem."

The hand that grabbed the other party's shoulder became a little harder, and the Cangyun barrier on the side grinned a few fierce laughs: "You'd better tell the truth, otherwise...... Your fate may be worse than that of the traitor in Arashiyama. ”

"Wait, wait!" So more cold sweat broke out on the ragged player's face: "I, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but I, I don't dare to say it." ”

"What is there to dare to say?" Duan Qing continued to threaten in a hoisting voice: "Or...... You can't say it at all? ”

"What, what do you mean?"

"In my past time, I have seen a technique of the Restorationists that can manipulate spirits."

Glancing at Xue Ling Phantom Ice again, Duan Qing then lowered his voice and leaned in front of the other party: "People who fall for this kind of spell will lose their consciousness and become the puppets of those guys......

"You can't tell the answer to this question, it's already an answer in itself." He retracted his body and looked at the player's face in a cold sweat with a playful look: "We are not a court of trial either, and we don't need hard evidence to convict you. ”

"Wait, wait, I really don't know what you're talking about!" The nine-fingered beggar struggled again and pressed his shoulders to the ground, and there was a desperate expression in his eyes: "What kind of secret technique you said, I've never heard of it-"

"Sorry, your explanation didn't pass." Waving his hand, Duan Qing, who stood up, gradually condensed a shining fireball in his hand: "Your resurrection point should also be here, right?" We've had countless more opportunities to make you feel the pain of death, and this kind of torture is a bit inhumane, but it's all your own doing—"

"I say! I said no! ”

The firelight illuminated the player's cold sweaty face, and at the same time distorted his shouting, interrupting Duan Qing's voice, he then put away his gong-like voice, and at the same time lowered his head deeply: "I ...... last night I went drinking last night. ”

"Drinking? It's as simple as that? ”

"When, of course it's not that simple."

Looking at the scene of several people staring at him in unison, the Nine-Fingered God Beggars hurriedly raised his head and explained: "The drinking in our gambler's mouth is the meaning of the opening, and the location is in the Waste Four Tavern, and several friends of the principality have already received the news of the gathering, and they have been waiting for me there for a long time. ”

“…… What is there not to say about this? It's not a big deal to open a market, right? ”

"Me, I drank a little too much last night."

He lowered his head deeply again, and the voice of the nine-fingered beggar then returned to the feeling of remorse: "Originally, I wanted to take this opportunity to take their words, but I didn't expect them to collude secretly, and then ...... Then I became unconscious, and they took the envelope from me......"

"Envelopes?" In the scene where several people looked at each other, it was Duan Qing who took the lead in setting his eyes on the Cangyun Barrier: "I forgot to ask you - what is this guy doing in the Imperial Investigation Group?" ”

"On the list, he is one of the members of the Eloth family, and he is also a relatively famous nobleman in the empire, they are very close to the Susas family, and they are usually in charge of some intelligence work...... Well? ”

"I see."

Several people moved their gazes back to the face of the nine-fingered beggar, and there was a little more understanding in their eyes when they looked at him: "No wonder you are so scared." ”

"It turns out that I lost the information I brought with me."
