Chapter 165: Another Case of Murder and Disappearance (2nd Update)

"How many cases this month? It's cruel. ”

"What a good girl, she died like this. It's terrible, what are the guards doing? ”

"Who knows?"

Lotta pricked up her ears and listened carefully, as if something had happened in the city during this time, a serial murder case and a missing family. The original inhabitants of this area were brutally killed. And the people who died were all fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls.

Just listening to other people's conversations, there is too little information.

"Maybe we can go to the local mercenary guild and see if there are any suitable tasks."

"Do you want to inquire about the murder?"

"Hmm."

Lotta swallowed the snack in her hand.

Generally speaking, in the city, the guy who dares to kill people is either very strong or not human. For him means experience and evolutionary components. So he still wanted to investigate the matter.

At his request, the team went to the Mercenary Guild and searched for a quest about the city in the quest bar.

Sure enough, some information was found here.

It turned out to be a C-level mission, but the content of this mission is detective-type, and the murderer must be found, not a fight to kill. For those mercenaries who are three big and five coarse, they are completely laymen. There is no such profession as a detective in the world, and mercenaries are good at fighting, rather than logical reasoning to find the murderer.

Although the quest was at the top of the list, and the reward for the quest was as high as 1500 gold coins, no one picked him up.

The use of force and the cost of mental power are not the same thing.

Many mercenaries who are not magicians are illiterate, let alone make some logical inferences, and they cannot be injured by mistake in such a big city. For ordinary mercenaries, they would rather go to the earth dragon to fight alone than do such a troublesome task.

"We'll take on this task."

"Lotta, can we accomplish such a mission?"

"It's really underestimated my reasoning ability, don't forget Hughira's identity, how I guessed it."

Lotta pulled out her sunglasses and put them on her face, this time taking out a pipe and dropping it in her mouth. He stumbled upon it on the street and bought it. As soon as he bit into his mouth, he was snatched away by Dinelle.

"No smoking."

"There's not even a shredded tobacco in there, I'm just pretending."

Lotta snatched back her pipe and bit it back into her mouth. The thin man put his sunglasses on his face and crouched next to Lotta. It looks like the underworld in Animal City in the cartoon.

Well......

There is still a gold necklace and a black dress, and a Thomson is perfect.

Ellie wanted to join in when she saw the two of them posing, but she was too big to stand anywhere. I had no choice but to go back.

"Butterfly, it's time for you to go on the field next, go to the nearby thieves' union to inquire about some news, you should be good at this, right?"

"Leave it to me."

Butterfly took a few people and walked down the street. casually grabbed a person, handed over a few gold coins, and asked in a low voice. Then he led the people to a rather dilapidated alley, and knocked on the door of a dark and narrow tavern.

There are a lot of people inside, but the environment is very oppressive, and the small amount of sunlight through the narrow windows is not enough to illuminate the entire hotel. Most of the people in the room were still masked, drinking in a muffled voice. Some were talking in low voices, and the rest of the team said they weren't comfortable with the environment.

Lotta thinks this is normal.

In line with the setting of thieves and assassins in his mind, it is normal for some professions that cannot be seen to be hidden in such dark corners. The appearance of the squad attracted the attention of almost everyone, after all, there were so many beautiful girls in the team. These people all saluted, but no one came forward to talk to them.

Butterfly walked over to the counter, pulled out a few gold coins and placed them on the table, asking the hook-nosed boss about the matter.

It didn't take long to get the news that Lotta wanted.

Since last month, there has been a series of killings in Philadelphia, and the deceased are a group of young and beautiful girls who are in the mood for love, but are brutally killed. They died in a tragic way, and the blood was all drawn from their bodies and turned into a dried corpse. The dead all had their eyes closed, as if they had been killed without knowing it, and they were all residents of the city.

Along with the killings, there are also disappearances.

According to official estimates, it's just that the body can't be found, and compared to those girls, it's already more auspicious.

People in the city are panicking, and those who have girls in the family are ordered not to go out.

It was suspected that some black magicians, or magicians who wanted to follow crooked paths, were studying blood magic, and the Church of Light teamed up with local aristocratic forces to cast a net on a large scale.

But the results were not satisfactory.

After several joint searches to no avail, they put this matter in the mercenary union in the form of a mercenary mission, hoping that the mercenaries who came and went could help solve this matter if they had strange things.

It's just that Philadelphia doesn't have any good Warcraft resource points, so the flow of mercenaries here is low.

Some powerful people and mercenaries in the city have also begun to investigate these matters. The other party is very cunning, only to see the dead but not find any evidence, all kinds of magic guides and magic tracking are completely ineffective, and it is impossible to send creatures to search along the smell.

When someone failed to challenge, the task was put on the shelf.

Commissions keep rising, but no one takes over.

"If you want to meddle in this matter, then go directly to the City Lord's Mansion."

Before leaving, under a few gold coins of Butterfly, the hotel owner reminded.

"You are the third batch of mercenaries who have come to inquire about this matter today."

Leaving the dilapidated alley, the group returned to the hotel where they were staying.

After some deliberation, it was decided to intervene.

It's just that it's a little late now, and everyone is resting.

"Let's go take a bath~"

"Good~"

Lotta, who was really lying on the table and teasing Nadona, was picked up by Ellie. He turned his head and noticed that the girls were all holding bathing utensils. The little eyes suddenly widened.

"Do you mean ......?"

"Let's go, go take a shower~"

Finally...... Can you go into the women's bathroom in the open?

It was as if Lotta had seen that the light was about to come. But...... He was thrown directly into Hughilla's arms by Daniel. He said very resolutely:

"Can't let this little pervert into the bathroom!"

Naturally, Lotta held up a sign in protest.

What a great opportunity this is, how can you just let it go?

"Hey, I'm just a raccoon, we're not a species!"

"You think I don't know what you're thinking, it's like that in the shower. Hum! ”

Denier glanced at him, her pretty eyes narrowed, and she felt unusually resolute, no matter what the other girls said. In the end, Lotta had no choice but to follow Hughira to the bath.

Merely.

Hughira went to the bathroom for this question.

Well......

You know, he's wearing a leather armor skirt now, the feminine kind, plus his face and hairstyle.

"I think, for the sake of your ass, let's book a private room."

"I ...... I also think ......"

Standing at the door of the bathroom, looking into the eyes of the male mercenaries. Hughira shrunk her neck in fear, and finally chose to book a private room.

This is after entering the bathroom, Lotta regrets it.

"Curved...... No, I'm straight, I can't bend, I'm straight. ”

"Lotta, don't move, I promised Denier to wash it for you...... Hey, what's this red thing? ”
