Wizard Brown's room was equally spacious, fully furnished, with spotless surfaces and afternoon sunlight shining through the windows, making the room bright and warm.

But this is only a façade, and no matter how beautiful it is, it cannot hide the fact that Brown is a powerful magician.

In this world, it is quite dangerous to search the mage's residence without permission.

This is true even when the magician is not present.

Rosen stood at the door of the room and asked, "The room looks clean, how often does the servant clean it?" ”

"Cleaning every morning, what's the matter, is there a problem?" Pétain did not understand the danger of the matter, he seriously underestimated the power of the magician, or rather, he knew nothing about the power of the magician.

However, his answer also made Rosen breathe a sigh of relief: "I have to clean it every day, and that guy is just living in the Black Thorn Villa." In order to avoid accidental injury, even if that guy has set up some magic traps, they must be non-lethal. Or perhaps, to avoid trouble, he may have only set up some detection magic. ’

According to Ciel's explanation, when a mage does not want people to touch his personal belongings, he sets up detection spells near them. This type of magic is usually very secretive and difficult to detect by anyone other than the magician himself.

Now, the door to Wizard Brown's room has been accidentally opened, and perhaps the detection magic placed in the room has been triggered.

"Forget it, no matter how many it is, it's a rare opportunity, so let's search it first." ’

Thinking of this, Lawson took the meat grinder musket and cautiously walked into the magician's room.

There is a lot of furniture in the room, including furniture, beds, desks, wardrobes, etc., and the spacious room also uses several isolation wooden screens to divide the room into three areas, which are the office area where the desk is located, the bedroom where the bed is located, and the bathroom where the bath is located.

For the owner of the room, this is naturally a good way to improve the comfort of life, but for Rosen, an outside investigator, the view of the room is very poor, and there are people everywhere.

Unfortunately, judging by the hoof prints on the wooden floor, there's a good chance that Shadow Fiend is hiding in this room.

Rosen became more and more vigilant and highly focused.

Veronica's words rang in his head, 'Shadow Fiend is very fast. Morbius is very fast, but the adult Shadow Fiend is even faster than him, and what is even more terrifying is that they can skillfully use the change of light and shadow to interfere with the enemy's line of sight. ’

Anne also told Rosen, 'Remember, don't give Shadow Fiend any time to use his natural abilities, and if something unfortunate happens, make sure to strike first, master the rhythm of the battle, and catch your opponent off guard!' ’

If he encounters Shadow Demon today, it will be the first time since he came to another world that he has faced a monster independently, and it is a very powerful monster.

Rao is Rosen is fully prepared, but when it comes to the end, he still feels that his heart is beating faster, and dense cold sweat is oozing from his forehead, and every step he takes, he feels as if he is walking on the edge of a cliff, as long as he is not careful, he may fall off the cliff and fall to pieces.

Moving forward little by little, moving to an area, Lawson's first step was to activate the power of alchemy, carefully inspecting the items and various traces in an area.

He checked until the alchemy magic was at its limit, and then he moved forward again.

During the inspection, Lawson paid particular attention to the direction of the hoof prints left by the Shadow Fiend on the wooden floor.

As the investigation deepened, Rosen gradually moved to the wizard's bedroom.

The bedroom is the most private place for a person, and if a person has any secrets, the most likely hiding place is the bedroom, and because of this, the bedroom is also the most likely to set up magical defenses.

Rosen mentions the spirit of the twelve, and continues to explore.

"There aren't many hoof prints on the floor, and judging from the hoof prints found before, the number of times this shadow demon has entered the mage's room must be three times. The first time I only stopped near the doorway. The second time I went to the office area. The third time, Shadow Fiend arrives in the bedroom area. In terms of the freshness of the hoof prints, the last hoof prints appeared in the most recent period, perhaps a day ago or an hour or two ago. ”

"There's a good chance that the Shadow Fiend is hiding somewhere in the bedroom!"

Rosen felt cold sweat oozing from his back, and goosebumps appeared on his skin.

He walked in the bedroom step by step, step by step approaching the large bed in the middle of the bedroom, and at the same time, his alchemical power filled the space around his body for 2 meters, probing all the physical existence in the nearby space.

When Rosen was less than one meter five away from the big bed, his alchemy magic was as good as the bedside wooden cabinet on the right hand side of the big bed, and his thoughts spread over, and the objects in the wooden cabinet entered his mind one by one.

'Flakes, neatly stacked together, should be a book. ’

It was very dense, very heavy, round, with a finger-sized hole in the middle, and it was supposed to be a gold ring. ’

'Long, the shell is dense, hollow, and there is a very active energy in the space, why is it so familiar...... Wait, isn't this the glitter wand I built?! ’

The glittering wand, Miss Adele's moon wand, is in Brown's bedside table, and according to Anne's investigation, the wand was stolen by a shadow fiend.

At this point, the truth of this homicide seems to be on the horizon.

So far, there's a good chance that Brown the Wizard knows the Shadow Fiend. Shadow Fiend has lived in the Black Thorn Villa for a short time, and it can be inferred from the hoof prints that Shadow Fiend has lived in the villa for at least three months. So when did the magician arrive at the villa? ’

Rosen asked the insider directly: "Young Master Petain, how long has Mr. Magician lived in the villa?" ”

"About four months ago, he was originally a magic instructor at the academy and a disciple of my aunt. So my aunt sent him to protect me. Petain knew everything.

Lawson listened to it with a pang in his heart, from the perspective of time, there was not much difference between the time when the Shadow Demon and the Wizard Brown arrived at the villa, that is, the relationship between the front and rear feet.

He could feel that the truth was right in front of him, but at the same time, he also knew that in a homicide case, the closer he got to the truth, the closer he got to the murderer, and the more dangerous he became!

Rosen wiped the fine beads of sweat from his forehead, activated the power of alchemy again, and then took a step closer to the position of the big bed.

The magic of alchemy spread past, enveloping most of the wooden beds, and the outlines of various objects on the bed and under the bed were reflected in Rosen's brain one by one

In the sea.

Half a second later, Rosen found that the wooden bed was hollow, and there was a large cabinet under the bed.

After another half second, Rosen's attention was drawn to the object in the cabinet, and he gently controlled the air around the object, gently scraping around the 'object'.

Thus, the shape of this 'object' came to Rosen's mind.

"A completely undetectable object, no sound at all, no heartbeat, no breathing, exactly the same temperature as the environment. From the curve, it looks like a human body....... Oh no, it's the Shadow Demon hiding under the bed! Rosen's heart exploded.

Veronica said, 'Shadow Fiend is good at lurking, and can go into hibernation-like hibernation. In this state, Shadow Fiend is almost completely integrated into the environment! ’
