As mentioned earlier, the hotel was built on the mountain, and the original gem mine was not far from the hotel, or the location of the hotel was exactly where the mine was stockpiled with waste, no more than a kilometer away in a straight line.

Since the hotel is already on the outskirts of the town, there is no one behind it, with only a dirt road leading to the mine and no security cameras.

In other words, it is highly likely that the murderer will hide the murder weapon in the mine after killing someone, and wait for the limelight to dispose of it.

I have to say that this murderer has a sense of youth and innocence from the method of murder to the location of the murder weapon, such as borrowing the legend of the town to prove that he is righteous, which is the reason that the murderer found in order to alleviate the guilt of the crime.

- That's a bit of a criminal psychology category.

The process of finding the murder weapon is neither complicated nor dangerous, and Ann pointed out that they found a plastic bag containing the murder weapon in a dilapidated small kiosk that used to belong to the janitor not far from the mine. There is a bloodstained bowling ball inside, as Ann Yizhi guessed, and judging by the newness of the bowling ball, I am afraid that it is still a new product that was purchased recently.

There is also a roll of fishing line and a 'line' tool used to pull the bowling ball up, which, while unlikely to have fingerprints remaining, is still very important evidence.

Don't underestimate the police's ability to investigate, they can find the seller from a fruit knife used to commit murder, and find the buyer from the seller.

That's right, it's that excessive.

The contents of the bag, whether it is a bowling ball or a fishing line, are new, and the next step is to find out who has recently purchased a bowling ball and fishing line to locate the murderer.

Of course, such a perverted tracking ability is still in the police to break their legs, in fact, this is the standard operation of most police to solve cases, like in movies and TV series, a clue directly arresting people is just artistic processing, and it is not so easy to really solve the case.

Jimmy's mood seems to be good, obviously the murderer already has eyebrows, which makes him happy, and the smile on his face on the return trip looks like Erha.

Although An Yizhi felt a little aggrieved that he didn't come to a reasoning show by catching the murderer, in addition to believing in the police's investigation ability, there really wasn't any clue left by the murderer.

However, he also knew that although this commission was nearing the end, it was not over, because if the rest of the work was just a simple and boring investigation, he should have sat in the swivel chair of the 'Ann Yizhi Detective Agency' by now, and in this dungeon, the system will skip the tedious plot that doesn't make any sense, and conversely, if you don't do it, it means that something will happen.

And Yumeko Mizushima.......

She tugged at Ann's sleeve and said:

"I'm hungry."

“……”

This girl is indeed not an ordinary person, although everyone did not have time to eat in the morning because of the discovery of the corpse, but it is already incredible that she still has an appetite.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

Back at the hotel, Jimmy calls his colleagues and asks them to contact the city police station to investigate the bowling incident, while Ann Ichichi wonders what will happen next, and Yumeko Mizushima can't help but want to run to the kitchen to get something to eat.

It was at this moment that a loud bang came from the other end of the hallway.

- Bang!

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then realized what the voice represented.

It's gunshots!

Jimmy and another policeman quickly pulled out their pistols and rushed in the direction of the source of the sound, Ann hesitated for a moment and followed, but he always remembered to shrink his body behind the policeman, after all, he was unarmed, and what danger was to be beaten.

"That's where the gunshots came from this room."

Jimmy judged for a moment, and then shouted loudly:

"Listen inside, we're the police, lay down your arms!"

Ann glanced up at the house number, which was Svedi's room.

At the other end of the hallway, the proprietress and her daughter, Tracey and Erin, were seen, and another policeman quickly raised his hand to signal them not to come.

At the same time, a low moan was heard by everyone outside the door, and Jimmy realized that someone might be injured inside, and he raised his foot and kicked it directly on the door.

No matter how useless it is, he is also a professionally trained policeman, don't look at Jimmy's face that is weak and bullied, this physical fitness is very strong, and he kicked the door lock directly.

The two policemen rushed into the room with their pistols raised, and Ann poked his head through the crack, and he saw that the windows of the room were wide open, and Swedi was lying on the side of the bed clutching his lower abdomen, and a lot of blood was oozing out, and the carpet was stained red.

Jimmy moved over and examined Sweedy's wound and said:

"The bullet is still in his body, call the medical personnel and let them come by helicopter."

Sveidy struggled to let go of his hand, still clutching a revolver that seemed to have been snatched from his attacker. Then he took Jimmy's hand and said:

"Yes...... It's Mike ......."

After saying that, he fainted, probably because of excessive blood loss.

Ann took two quick steps to the open window, just in time to see a figure running down the path behind the hotel.

"He ran away, looking at the direction to go to the mine!"

When Jimmy heard this, he quickly said to his colleague:

"You stay and hold the wound to help him stop the bleeding, and I'll chase him."

After speaking, without waiting for an answer, he rushed out of the room, and his colleague took off the walkie-talkie on his shoulder and notified the police who were collecting evidence at a nearby hotel.

Ann knew that the final plot had begun when she saw this, and ran out with Jimmy. Of course, he didn't go to arrest people, it was almost the same as being arrested with his physique, he just went to see how it ended up.

The policemen who had been scattered all over the hotel street received the news and ran out to meet Jimmy, adding up to seven or eight people, plus the other party did not have weapons in his hands, An Yizhi felt that it should be okay to run to see.

- It's a flag.

Because of the late start, by the time the police chased him, the proprietress had already drilled into the entrance of the mine.

They had no choice but to follow him into the mine.

"Stop! Or I'll shoot! ”

The leader, Jimmy, shouted a warning, but the other party did not listen, rolled on the spot, took something out of the shadow behind the rock, and lit a kerosene lighter.

Jimmy was about to shoot, but Ann pointed his finger and quickly stopped it.

"Look what's in his hand!"

Only then did the group realize that Mike was holding a piece of explosives for opening the mountain, and he then kicked half a box out of the shadows behind the rocks.

Therefore, don't set up a flag casually, otherwise it is likely to play a god.

"Stand back! You're all going to give me back! ”

Mike yelled loudly with the explosives, looking a little mentally ill, with tears in the corners of his eyes.

In order not to irritate him, the main reason was that the police did not dare to act rashly for fear of irritating the explosives in his hands.

"I'll tell you to step back! Otherwise, I'll ignite the explosives! ”

"You can't run away, surrender honestly."

Considering the possibility that the other party might be impulsive, the police could only take a few steps back, after all, they were all in the mine now, and if the box of explosives exploded, the mine was likely to collapse.

Dynamite, the man who betrayed his co-workers twenty years ago and intended to take the gem alone, the homicide, the inexplicable Svidi who was shot.

These keywords went around in An Yizhi's mind, and finally arranged into a coherent clue......

So that's what happened......

"I don't believe anything you say! Everyone is lying to me! Lie to me! ”

Mike's emotions seem to be getting more and more agitated, and both Ann and the police realize that this guy could ignite explosives at any moment.

"I've had enough of this shit town!"

- Bang!

The lighter moves towards the fuse, and Jimmy quickly raises the muzzle of the gun and shoots Mike in the right hand holding the explosives, causing him to fall in response.

I don't know how high the marksmanship is by Bian, but unfortunately, this shot was a little late.

The fuse of the explosive had been lit, and with a popping sound slipped out of Mike's hand, rolling quickly towards the tunnel behind him.

"Get out of here!"

Needless to say, Jimmy said, everyone knows that this place can't just stay.

Fortunately, the area of the tunnel is not small, and there is no problem for everyone to run together.

An Yizhi now feels a little regretful running to join in the fun, he originally thought that there was a chance to pretend to be forced to tell the ins and outs of the matter, but before he could speak, Mike directly ignited the explosives.

- According to the routine, shouldn't the protagonist be allowed to convince the enemy with a mouth cannon here?!

Escaping was not a big problem, it was only a dozen meters away from the entrance of the cave, but before they could run a few steps, they heard a loud bang from inside the tunnel.

The ground beneath his feet shook as if it were tumbling, and it was difficult to even stand, and fine stones and dust fell from the roof of the cave.

An pointed at one of them and didn't stand firmly, and he fell on his head with a pop, and his chin hit the ground directly, and he had gold stars in his eyes.

I could vaguely feel that someone was tugging at his clothes, and when I looked up, I saw that it was Yumeko Mizushima.

Jimmy also spotted the fallen Ann Finger, covered his head with his hand, and quickly rushed over to pick up An Yizhi and run out.

But before Jimmy could feel it, Ann felt the emptiness under him with a finger, and a sense of fall enveloped him, and a large hole appeared under him.

Mizushima Yumeko's girl didn't let go, and the result was that she fell into the hole with An's finger.

And then? An Yi's finger is not very clear, it may have been hit on the head by a falling stone, anyway, his eyes are now dark, and the system prompts that he is in a temporary coma.

After all, it's just a normal difficulty dungeon, and the system can't make a plot that makes players die without warning, which An Yizhi is still very relieved.

Less than a minute later, and although it was still pitch black, An Yizhi felt like he had regained control of his body.

He was lying on his stomach, with a hard rock underneath him, and he was probably uninjured except for some pain.

Due to the darkness nearby, Ann Yizhi had no ability to cast spells, and happened to be groping in the dark to measure his environment with his hands.

However, this time, I touched a cold metal object, and when I got it in my hand, I realized that it was the kerosene lighter that Mike used to light explosives before.

Gently turning the pulley, the flint ignites the kerosene on the tampon, allowing the darkness to see.

It was a very cramped environment, and Ann had to hunch over here.

He looked up and saw a whole stone slab above his head, which should have been blocked, but luckily it didn't fall too deep into the ground, because if you put the fire close to the crack in the stone slab above, you could see air and wind pouring in.

He then checked around with a lighter and found Yumeko Mizushima not far away.

Her chest was still heaving, and she reached out to test her pulse and breathing, making sure she had just fainted and passed out.

Relieved, Ann raised the lighter to the other side, only to startle him.

A skeleton that had been reduced to white bones was leaning there, looking to have been dead for a short time, and its clothes were almost rotten, except for a few strips of rags.

"Huh? What is that? ”

In the light of the fire, An Yizhi saw that there seemed to be something reflective in front of the skeleton, and when he got closer, he found that it was a white crystalline particle, which looked the size of a peanut.

"Raw ore for diamonds?"

It looked right, and then he noticed that the pocket on the skeleton's upper body was a little bulging, and after enduring the nausea, Ann reached out and took it with one finger.

It was a very old broken tin box, and it looked more like the metal pencil case that was popular with schoolchildren in the seventies and eighties.

When I opened it, it was filled with diamond ore of different sizes, almost filling the box more than ten centimeters long.

"That's too damn too!"

No wonder the system said that this commission may make a lot of money when receiving the commission, An Yizhi was still a little puzzled, after all, from the perspective of the process, it doesn't look like it can make a lot of money, and the so-called money-making is estimated to refer to these raw ores.

- This way of doing this is really bad.

Having said that, he didn't hesitate to put the box in the pocket of his down jacket.

A slight moan entered his ears, and when he turned his head, he saw that the groan came from a pile of rubble not far away, which must have been formed by the collapse before.

Flipping aside a few pieces of rubble, I saw the person crushed underneath.

It's Mike.

His leg was crushed under the stone and appeared to be not lightly injured.

At the same time, An Yizhi also heard the sound of shouting from above, it should be rescue.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

"Please use tea."

Yumeko Mizushima, who had a bandage on her head, put the tea bowl in front of Yasuchichi, and this time there was finally tea instead of plain water.

The picture suddenly turned back to the detective agency, which was somewhat confusing, and An Yizhi was used to the system suddenly jumping directly, after all, he had experienced it several times.

This also means that the previous event has been completed, An Yizhi quietly opened the task list, and the side quests on it are also in a state of completion, and the task notes say that the murderer is Mike, which is basically the same as An Yizhi's final guess.

"In the end, didn't you find out who commissioned the investigation twenty years ago?"

"It doesn't matter, I can guess it anyway, it's Mike."

An Yizhi picked up the tea bowl and replied casually:

"The whole thing started with a mining accident 20 years ago, when Mike's father secretly bought a batch of explosives out of nowhere and planned to take the gems hidden by his co-workers for himself, but instead of doing so, he was buried in the mine. And in order to prevent the boss lady from being forced to leave the town, those workers made up a lie that it was an unfortunate accident and hid the truth. ”

Yumeko Mizushima nodded, she knew these too.

"Although it is well-intentioned, excessive concealment leads to misunderstandings."

He sighed with emotion and continued:

Because he didn't know the truth at all, Michael probably thought that his father's death was related to those people, after all, everyone except his father was fine when he went to dig for gems secretly, and the most suspicious of them was the mayor. Not only does he have a history of enriching his own pockets, but he also has a lot of intentions against the boss lady, and he was killed by Mike Design. ”

"If he's going to kill someone, why do you want to entrust us?"

"He probably didn't intend to kill people at first, maybe he was very entangled in whether he should do it at the time, I think Mike's mind was a little confused at that time, on the one hand, the 'truth' he found out made him think that his father died because of the mayor's calculations, and on the other hand, his conscience as a normal person made him feel that he couldn't kill people, I guess he was the one who sent the threatening letter to the boss's wife, probably to keep the boss's wife and his sister away from the town, after all, he had already had the idea of killing at that time, and he didn't want them to get involved."

This was pure speculation, and it was speculation without any evidence, and the truth was unknown, and his speculation was based only on the notes after the mission was completed.

"It shouldn't have happened, if he hadn't been so self-righteous and went to the police to investigate the information of the year, it wouldn't have been like this."

"Yes, the concealment based on good intentions ended up being killed. Mike used explosives that his father had left behind twenty years ago, and he suddenly overheard our conversation with Svedi as if he had a nervous breakdown, and the bus driver was miserable enough, and he was forced to question him at gunpoint, because the truth he got was different from what he thought was true, and he was finally shot. ”

That's pretty much how the whole process goes, and honestly, it's not a story that's too rosy or too exciting.

Yumeko Mizushima said regretfully:

"The hot springs at that inn are really good, and I would like to have a chance to visit them again in the future."

An Yizhi, who was looking at the computer to see if there was any new commission, suddenly remembered something when he heard it.

"Where's the down jacket I was wearing?"

"It's on the hanger, I'm going to take it for dry cleaning tomorrow."

"There should be an iron box in your pocket, you can take it out and take a look."

Mizushima Yumeko didn't know what medicine was sold in the gourd, but she was quite obedient, and she came back with a dilapidated iron box not long after.

"What's in there?"

She looked at the diamond ore inside and wondered:

"What kind of stone? It looks a bit like rock candy. ”

“……”

This girl, why do you still want to eat?

Just as he was about to complain, An Yizhi found that he had lost control of his body, and at the same time, the system also sent a prompt.

[After the main quest is completed, you can choose to teleport immediately or automatically after 180 seconds]

It turns out that the main quest was not completed because the box of gems was not taken out?

After all, An Yi pointed out that the main quest this time can be summed up in two words: 'make money', and the value of that box of diamond ore is enough to complete the main quest.

And the end of this dungeon is not as simple as every time the player is directly teleported away.

From Ann's point of view, he could see that his own body was moving away from itself, like a soul running out of his body.

He also saw that as the perspective gradually zoomed out, 'An Yizhi' talked and laughed with Mizushima Yumeko, until the perspective was pulled to the mid-air outside the office, and he could clearly see the signboard of the 'An Yizhi Detective Agency' that he wanted to complain about every time.

Looking at this scene, An Yizhi suddenly felt that if it was really in a parallel world, it didn't seem to be a bad thing to have such a 'An Yizhi Detective Agency'.

Whether it's for Yasuchichi, or for Yumeko Mizushima.

She is not a side branch of the Mizushima family, nor is she a lady of the underworld who avenges her father and brother, nor is she a liaison officer who assists the overlord, and she is not a loyal subordinate of someone.

Mizushima Yumeko, as the assistant of 'An Yizhi', followed him to solve the case and live a peaceful life together, maybe it was a very good ending for this girl who had appeared too many times in the temporary copy.

Before being completely teleported away by the system, such a thought suddenly popped into An Yizhi's heart, and then he laughed dumbly.

Mizushima Yumeko in the office looked out the window as if she had a feeling, and then said to 'An Yizhi':

"At noon, I want to eat a plucked apple."

“……”

Seeing the results of the diamond ore can be associated with the drawing of apples, this girl is still the same as always......
