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

It turns out that this situation has existed long before the metal clone incident, but the perpetrators are limited to a small number of elves, and these elves are well aware of how powerful the private magic projects that their ancestors have studied, so they only explore the magic relics that have collapsed and have little energy left.

Among them, there is even an official, that is, a team of personnel organized by the Royal Academy of Magic, who are carefully searching for some relatively safe relics, and the works left by ancient elven mages are still very helpful for the elves who have now declined in all aspects.

All in all, that day, exploring magical ruins was still a relatively safe and harmless job, but with two important changes, this kind of ruin exploration slowly became dangerous.

First of all, the replica metal body I just mentioned, although it did not cause a heavy impact on the elves, but it made the magic relics on the border, known to a small number of people, into the eyes of the public, not to mention anything else, let's just say that the tomb robber pseudo-mother Finnie, when she first knew the news of the magic relics, her eyes were about to become a hundred and twenty watt light bulbs.

In fact, it can be traced back to the previous Black Dragon Elias incident, which is also related. The Black Dragon Elias incident can be said to be the biggest disaster suffered by the elves in the past thousand years, and dozens of towns on the border were destroyed in this incident.

As a result, these two events gradually gave people, especially to human beings who are [curious], a little hint, seemingly. The elves who have declined. Hundred-legged insects die but do not stiffen, emaciated camels are larger than horses, and their borders are ...... It hides a lot of secrets.

Although there are good and bad people in every race, they cannot be killed with a single rod. But even if it's me, a human. There's no way to deny it. If you count which race is uneven, the most desired, the least able to restrain your bohemian curiosity. In comparison, it must be human.

Therefore, after the fermentation of the first two events, and then, there was a direct reason - the elven border began to be drastically transformed into a training area, which led to a large number of people pouring into these places, and when there were many people, some secrets were not secrets, and some magic relics of people who were not for people were slowly discovered.

So, the profession of treasure thieves appeared, their purpose is to explore the ruins, to find treasures, but these people are different from the previous explorers who have a good experience, and even the danger of the ruins, the treasure thieves can not care whether the ruins are dangerous or not, the items inside are taken out, will it cause chaos like metal replicas, they just look for it, don't look for it.

And among these treasure thieves, most of them are humans, so when Xiao Hei Carbon and I were interrogated at the beginning that we were human and had suspicious appearances, it would arouse the great vigilance of the elf soldiers.

"I see, so Grandpa Somako, is there a serious incident now because of these treasure thieves?" Knowing the general situation, and after pondering for a moment, I continued to ask.

"For the time being, there has not been a chaotic situation like a metal replica, but there are more than a dozen incidents that are not big or small, and the soldiers on our border are anxious and busy to deal with it." Somako stood up, took out more than a dozen reports from a locked cabinet, and handed them to me.

"I'm afraid, if I continue to leave these treasure thieves alone, sooner or later there will be an incident like a metal replica, or even an incident like the black dragon Elias, it's not impossible, so after informing the royal city, I got approval, and then joined forces with the mayors of more than a dozen other towns on the border to start strict custody of the treasure thieves, and even arrest and expel them, but I didn't expect that this operation had only been launched for a few days, and the first person caught was Your Highness, I, ...... I'm ashamed......"

Speaking of the sore spots, Somako, who had managed to muster up some spirits, fell into endless depression and self-blame again.

"No, Grandpa Somako, you're not wrong to do this, if you let these treasure thieves go, you will definitely find out about those strict things sooner or later, as you just said, please don't give up this plan because I'm alone." Carefully looking at the more than a dozen copies of the text in my hand, I said with a solemn expression.

Having personally experienced and dealt with the incident of replicating metal bodies, I knew better than Somako and others about the dangers of wanton exploration of magical relics, so after hearing how they handled it, I felt that it was not enough, and I should be more severe.

"Moreover, we can't just blindly guard against and expel them, this is a palliative act, with the gradual improvement of the elven border training area, there will be more civilians and adventurers pouring into the border, which means that more treasure thieves are pouring in, we have to start from the root."

"What is there to do for His Royal Highness?" Seeing my stern look, as if facing the Black Dragon incident back then, Somako's heart was also anxious.

"We have to take the initiative to find the senior people in the treasure thief organization, start from this person, arrest all the important people with mud, teach them how to behave in the prison, and release them after they are honest, I think, if we can crack down on it once, at least in three or five years, we can calm down this trend of treasure thieves, and there is no way to resurface."

"What Your Highness said is reasonable, I will go to prepare, and report to the royal city, so that the entire border will take action, I believe that it will not be long before one or two useful people can be caught." Somako kept nodding his head, stood up, and was ready to act.

"Grandpa Somako, don't be so troublesome." I pressed my hand down on him and motioned to sit down, not in a hurry.

"Does Your Highness already have a clue?"

"That's right, speaking of the veteran of the Treasure Thieves......" I snapped my fingers and whispered to the elven soldiers beside me.

Less than ten minutes. A familiar voice came from outside the door.

"Meow...... What are you going to do, why do you want to catch me for no reason, I didn't casually break into your important places, and I didn't steal anything from your prison meow~~~"

Having an indissoluble bond with the royal family, the voice of Fei Ni's children's shoes, who has several experiences in entering the palace, reached her ears, and after a while, her figure appeared at the door, and two spears behind her pointed her directly in.

"What a rude and violent fellow, I always thought you were a personable and elegant race. I didn't expect to see the wrong person. ”

Indignantly, he shook his little fist in protest at the elven soldiers behind him. Finney turned her head and saw me sitting calmly drinking tea.

"Cousin, it turns out that you meow here too, just right. Look at these elven soldiers. Caught me meowing for no reason. As His Royal Highness, don't you think you should say something to these rough soldiers? ”

As soon as Finney saw me, she was like seeing her master's puppy. Hurriedly ran up, meowed and complained to me, and pretended to squeeze out a few tears of grievance.

"Who do you think let the soldiers capture you?" The green tendons on my forehead kept stirring, this tomb robber pseudo-mother, is she really stupid or is she pretending to be stupid?

"Who is it...... Could it be that it's your cousin? Why did you catch meow, if you just want to see me, it's enough to pass a word, I really didn't do anything bad this time, I swear meow. Finney felt even more aggrieved and swore to God.

"Are you sure you really haven't done anything bad?"

"No meow." Finney's answer was sonorous, as if she had really suffered a great grievance.

"Let's take a look at the reports first." I directly handed the report of the events caused by the magical relics caused by Somako to Somako during this time, and handed it to Fini.

Looking at them one by one, Fini's originally righteous and awe-inspiring, mighty and unyielding eyes weakened a little, and fine sweat slowly broke out on her forehead.

Table ...... Cousin meow, these events really have nothing to do with me. She no longer had the same sense of righteousness as before, lowered her head, and muttered a low voice of justification.

"It really doesn't matter at all?" I accentuated my tone, my eyes were majestic, and I conveyed to Finney the meaning of confession and leniency, and resistance to strictness.

"I didn't ...... I didn't say meow, I just investigated, but I didn't explore meow. ”

"The six points on that map are all you know, and you didn't organize other colleagues to do something together?" I slammed the table and startled Finney.

"Really...... There is really no meow, cousin, think about it, a veteran like me has always been alone, and one person can do it, how can I share these good places with others. Turning her eyes a few times, Finney became more and more poised again, looking remarkable.

"It's true that you're not the kind of person who can share good places with others, but like to be alone." I nodded, Finney was a loner before she was a pseudo-mother, and I had never heard of her having any partners in the tomb robber industry.

"It's worthy of being a cousin, and he knows my character very well." As if she saw the hope of innocence, Finney's eyes lit up, and she nodded as if a chicken was pecking rice.

"So, how many copies of those tasteless spots have been sold?" I suddenly asked coldly.

"Seven or eight samples...... No, cousin, what are you talking about, I don't understand meow at all, meow hahaha~~~" Finney blurted out, and then quickly covered her mouth, pretending to be stupid with teary eyes.

"Finney." I got up from my chair, took a few steps forward to Finney, bowed my head, and looked at and caressed her face, which was in no way inferior to that of any woman.

"I ...... How about you? ”

Table ...... Cousin...... You...... You ......" Because of my sudden action, I was suddenly stunned, and then my eyes became confused, and her face gradually turned red.

What about my cousin...... Why did you suddenly become so bold and ...... in front of everyone? Such......

"Although...... Although he always bullied me, he always ...... They always play with me like a toy...... But...... But you're still the most ...... for Finney The most important cousin meow ......" said, and the little pseudo-girl lowered her head shyly.

"So, you're not going to lie to me, are you?" I smiled softly.

"Hmm...... Hmmm......"

"How many copies are sold?"

"Eight...... Eight parts, a total of twelve dot meows. Finney subconsciously told the truth, and then covered her mouth tightly. Tears welled up in my eyes again, and I felt pity.

"I see, I get ......"

"I ...... I was wrong, cousin...... Huh? Suddenly, Finney noticed that her gentle cousin was gone.

Instead, strong arms wrapped their arms around her waist with both hands from behind.

"Wu's Family Heirloom Cheats - German-style Arch Bridge Falling !!"

With an angry shout, the next moment, Finney's world spun, followed by a sharp pain in the back of her head, and she was unconscious. The eyes were spinning.

"The truth is revealed. Grandpa Somako, let's start investigating this guy. I clapped my hands, pointed to the little puppet girl lying on the ground in a large shape, and said to Somako.

"Yes...... Yes......" was thrown by this earth-shattering German-style arch bridge. Frightened, his mouth opened wide. I couldn't speak for a long time. Somako had a word in his mind - His Royal Highness the Prince was mighty and domineering, and it took a while for him to nod with difficulty.

Squat on the ground. Somako cautiously interrogated: "Lord Finney, can you tell me, who did you sell those ruins to?" Of course, it would be nice to tell me all the information you know about the treasure thieves. ”

"It's not if, it's a must." I said coldly on the side, Somako is because of my relationship after all, and I can't say anything serious to Finney.

"Woo~~~Woo~~~Woo Woo~~~ Cousin bullies people Meow, it's impossible, I can't say it, although I'm a loner of great tomb robbers, I have no partner, but I will never betray my peers."

Finney stood up, sobbing and looking at me with resentment, holding the back of her head that was still hurting, and making a gesture of preferring to die.

"Oh? Do you really refuse to say anything about it? "I'm going to squint.

"Yes...... Yes, even my cousin can't pry my mouth open, it's a work ethic meow. Finney was startled by my squint, shivering like a rain-drenched animal, but still stiff-mouthed.

"Work ethic...... Very good, I'm here to see your work ethic, how many pounds can you weigh...... Ah, it looks like I don't have to do it. I was about to use all the tricks in my mind to force Finney to speak, but suddenly, I stopped moving, looked out the door, and laughed.

"Work ethic...... Is it? Behind Finney, at the gate, there was a pleasant voice like ninefold ice.

Immediately like a mouse meeting a cat, Finney's hair stood on end, and she turned her head stiffly and looked at Ouna who was standing in the doorway, smiling and with black air on her back.

"European ...... Ona ...... I...... I ......"

"How many times have you said that, Fini, you can't trouble the Elders, you naughty child, why are you disobedient?" The smile on Ou Naqiao's face became even brighter, and then she ignored Finney's wail and her eyes fell on me.

"Elder, can you hand over Finny to me? Don't worry, I'll let her spit out everything she knows to you - in five minutes. ”

"Then I'm bothering you." I smiled wryly as I watched as Ona dragged Finney away.

"I'm sorry, Elder, for causing you another trouble." Bis, who rushed to the scene with the news, stepped forward with a blushing cheek and kept apologizing to me.

"It's not your fault, Bess, come, let's take a few sips and wait for news."

Before the third glass of wine was served, Erna returned, followed by a haggard Finney.

"Grandpa Somako, I'll leave it to you next."

"Yes, Your Highness, please rest assured." I've done my part, if I have to continue to command the next thing, Somako, the mayor of the town, it's really in vain, he immediately nodded, called a few elf clerks, and recorded Fini's confession, 1510, I don't know, I was shocked when I asked, Fini is not only a veteran, she is simply the hidden boss in the entire Culast Harbor Regional Treasure Hoarder Organization, with her clues, I am afraid that it will not be difficult to uproot the Culast Regional Treasure Stealer Organization.

Very good, and a successful resolution of the incident, before the problem occurred, it was unbelievable to me.
