Dawn April 21, 1740 at 17:00 Matila Manor

Maria: "Honey, are you in the warehouse?" It's dinner time, why haven't you ...... yet? Yes!! ”

At 7:30 a.m. on April 22, the 'shield' base was ......

Max: "Sir, what's the matter with calling us to D3 so early?" ”

Faliammo: "Your chance to test the results of your training. ”

Chris: "So, there's an outing?" ”

Farianmo: "Yes. ”

Finnick: "Yay! Great, I can finally get my assignment out of the house. ”

Hitberts: "Wait a minute, listen to the tone of the chief, it seems that this is a big deal. ”

Farianmo: "That's right. In the Zelmandrak Empire, Mattila Manor!! The four of you, immediately pack up your equipment and set off, and carry out the first mission of the Dark Shield Bureau!! ”

Four: "Yes, sir!!" ”

Hitbels and the others went to 'A2', got the necessary weapons and outfits, and put on the 'Hawkeye' pinhole camera, and then walked out of the 'Shield' base

The exit of the 'shield' base on the ground is linked to a clothing store, which is to hide people's eyes, after all, if a few strange people walk out of an empty room during the day, passers-by will feel very strange, and rumors will immediately spread to the crowd, and naturally to the Dawning Building.

Therefore, at the behest of Sadou Oken, the Dark Shield Bureau set up a clothing store near the exit, after all, in the clothing store, it is not surprising that customers go out wearing the clothes they have just bought, and it just so happens that all the Dark Shield Hunters who go out on missions are peddling the clothes they are wearing, and no one will notice that something is wrong under normal circumstances

And the staff in the clothing store are Sadou Oken's own people. After saying goodbye to the staff in the clothing store, Hitbels and the others immediately went to Matilla Manor in the Zelmandrak Empire. Although this is an ordinary murder case, the empire where it happened has attracted the attention of Sadou Okun, who immediately sent the news to Tiandao's office, and Tiandao also understood the seriousness of this matter, because a coup d'état broke out in the Zelmandrak Empire a few years ago, although with the joint cooperation of the Imperial Army and the Diac Alliance, the coup crisis was resolved

This is what Sadou Oken is worried about, he is worried that the remnants of those rebels are planning to make a comeback, in order to gradually destroy the reputation of the current lord of the Zelmandrak Empire, in order to force the lord to step down, in order not to cause panic, so the Dawning Council did not directly send someone to investigate, but let the local police solve it. And, of course, the Dark Shield hunters who hide their identities

Constable 1: "Stop! In front of it is the scene of the crime, and it is forbidden for idle people to enter! ”

Chris: "We're investigators at the World Bureau of Investigation, and we're very concerned about this, so let's investigate. ”

Constable 2: "The World Bureau of Investigation? How come I've never heard of it? ”

Max: "This is the new investigative unit established by the Parliament of Dawning. There are some matters that are unclear and urgent, and we will investigate them first, and after solving the case, the Dawning Council will choose not to issue an announcement depending on the severity of the situation. ”

Finnick: "We're only here to help with the investigation, and the credit for solving the case is all up to you, but after the case is solved, don't mention our names, because something might cause panic." ”

Constable 1: "Got it, let's take them to the scene first." ”

Chris Max and others showed their 'World Bureau of Investigation' identity documents, which were indeed engraved with the 'Dawning Building' logo, so these police officers did not dare to continue to question. Moreover, anyway, they don't have a clue about this case now, and it would be great if these people could help, so the officer let Chris and the others enter the scene

In the barn of Matilla Manor, four or five police officers were investigating the scene, and Chris and others also found the victim. The victim had some traces of bleeding near his head, and was hung by a rope from the beam above the barn, but no large amount of blood was found on the ground

Hitbels: "How's the investigation going?" ”

Policeman: "The victim's name is Telida, 34 years old, and he and his wife Maria have been running the estate for 7 years. The cause of death was suffocation by the throat with a rope, but before he was strangled he had been hit in the head, and we concluded that the weapon that struck him in the head was a stone brick behind the barn. There are some blood stains on the stone bricks, and monitoring and analysis are now underway, but in order not to damage the scene, we have not moved anything, and even the victim's body has been hanging like this. ”

Max: "Did anyone pass by at the time of the crime?" Or rather, what people come to visit often? ”

Sheriff: "There are no cameras installed in the manor, and since it's far from the city, there are no witnesses, and we don't know if anyone was passing by at the time of the crime. However, although only the victim and the victim's wife usually live here, according to the victim's wife, they often invite some friends to the manor. ”

Finnick: "This time, the range of suspects is larger......"

Chris: "Have you all taken pictures of the scene?" ”

Sheriff: "It's already been filmed." ”

Chris: "Let's put the body down, we have to confirm the exact time of the crime now." ”

Sheriff: "Understood, put the body down!" ”

The two officers worked together to lower the body from the lanyard, and Hitbels and Chris immediately stepped forward to investigate the specific condition of the body, while Finnick and Max were around the barn, investigating the environment and where it could be.

Hitbels: "Is the barn door always open?" ”

Sheriff: "According to the victim's wife, they usually go to the barn at 4:30 p.m. and go inside the barn for a final security check before locking the door. Because they were preparing to have dinner at the time, and the victim's wife did not see the victim in the house, and saw that the door of the barn was open, she thought that the victim was still in the barn and went to check, but the lights in the barn were turned off at that time. ”

Max: "There was no blood in the barn, but there was some clutter in the haystack here, and it looked like someone had hidden it. ”

Chris: "Based on the stiffness of the body, the time of death should have been around 4:30 p.m., when the victim came to the barn for a final examination. ”

Hitbels: "It's not a temporary murder, it's a deliberate murder, and the killer is sure that the victim will be in an empty barn at this point in time." ”

Chris: "In other words, the murderer is very familiar with the victim!" ”

Sheriff: "I see. Bring that book of connections! ”

Officer: "Yes! ”

After listening to Chris and Hitbels' analysis, the sheriff immediately asked the police to bring the list of people related to the victim and the phone book, while Chris and the others went to the house to find the victim's wife who was sitting on the sofa and trembling

Finnick: "Officer, we need to confirm something with the victim's family. ”

Officer: "Understood, but she's overly frightened right now and hasn't revealed anything to us." ”

Chris: "Let's try... Ms. Maria, I am sorry for the loss of your spouse. But now we need to get the hell out of your husband's killer and get justice to him. ”

Maria: "You... Can you really help me find the murderer of my husband? ”

Hitbels: "We'll do everything we can, we're going to find the murderer!" ”

Maria: "That's... Oh well......"

Chris: "By the way, Lady Maria, is there anyone who has anything to do with your husband?" ”

Maria: "My husband is very friendly in the world, and he is always very hospitable to the friends who come to the manor, and when they have any problems, my husband will lend a helping hand. ”

Max: "Did he offend anyone out there?" Or, who did you have trouble with? ”

Maria: "Absolutely not. During the day, my husband would take some crops and fruits from the farm to the city to sell them to make ends meet. However, not to mention offending anyone, even if the customer complains about the problem of the product, he will apologize to that person in a very humble tone. ”

Policeman: "We have been to the stalls where the victim often goes to the city, and we have investigated the customers who have done business with the victim, and they have a good reputation for the victim's reputation, and if there is a problem in the sale, the victim will immediately compensate the buyer 4 times, and many people feel sorry for the victim, because he is obviously buying and selling at a loss." However, most of the regular customers will not pursue it, and the problems with those goods have been repeatedly reduced, and occasionally there will be some people who deliberately cause trouble, but the victim is unilaterally bullied, and he has never fought back. ”

Hitbels: "Honest and dutiful, not very good at forming bonds, hospitable......"

Chris: "Madame Maria, do you know that some of the people who come to the winery regularly and have made some requests to your husband?" ”

Maria: "Well, I want to think about it...... Many people don't usually have much time, almost once a month, or even two months. Frequent visitors and requested, including Shivat, Wicks, Hodgton, and Irina. ”

Max: "Sheriff, please. ”

Sheriff: "Understood, I'll contact them right away and get them over." ”

Hitbels: "Madame Maria, can you tell us what occupations these men are in, and what requests they have made to your husband?" ”

Maria: "This is recorded in my husband's notebook, and he is afraid of forgetting, so he writes down all the requests they make." ”

Chris: "We will investigate now and try to give you the truth as soon as possible and avenge your husband as soon as possible." ”

Maria: "Then please." ”
