Character determines beliefs, and beliefs affect character. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The world of Io is a world with true gods, and when believers choose their beliefs, their personalities and thinking patterns will also be affected by their beliefs.

The Church of the Sea Goddess, as a deity of nature, prohibits senseless killing, but it does not prohibit lust, nor does it prohibit promiscuity and transsexuality, and certain human morals are meaningless in the eyes of the ocean. So for those who tend to be in the orderly, conservative camp, the believers in the goddess of the sea are bitch.

The housekeeper is a devotee of the god of light, Pero. Although the camp of the god of light and the camp of the goddess of the sea are not hostile, due to the huge difference in the personalities of the believers on both sides, they do not like each other.

Faced with the angry glare of the housekeeper, the female captain didn't care at all.

"Little brother, I believe in you, don't let me down." The female captain pulled out a rope and tied Green's hands behind her, then pulled Green up from the ground, "Let's go, I hope you can wash your suspicion away." ”

Locking all Mona in the room, the captain and housekeeper pressed Green to the top room on deck.

The rooms on the upper deck are much more spacious than the small rooms where Green lives, and the amenities such as the beds are slightly more luxurious, but that's about it - you can't expect a merchant ship to make the rooms look as beautiful as a luxury passenger ship.

It was a very simple room, with a bed, a desk and a cabinet, and although there were not many furniture, they were of good quality and gave a sense of sophistication.

The door had been breached, there was a visible pool of blood on the floor, and Ryan's body was lying quietly on the bed.

Green looked at the blood on the ground, and then at the corpse lying on the bed: "Have you touched the corpse?" ”

Housekeeper: "Of course. You can't let the young master's corpse lie on the floor all the time, right? ”

That is, the site has been completely destroyed? Well, the people of this world simply do not have the idea of the so-called "protection of the scene".

The corners of Green's mouth twitched: "Can I see the corpse?" ”

"Please."

Under the watchful eye of the housekeeper and the captainess, Green walked over to the bedside and examined the body.

The fatal wound was in the chest, and there were blood stains on both hands.

"Kill with a single sword?" Green turned to the female captain and asked, "Can you tell if the wound is from the front or from the back?" ”

"From the front." The female captain gestured with her hand, "Kill with a knife!" ”

"What is the murder weapon?"

Captain: "It's with a dagger." ”

Greene: "What kind of dagger?" ”

"Fariyah, show him that dagger." The captain said to the housekeeper.

"Okay."

"Huh?" Green watched in amazement as the housekeeper opened a drawer and took out a dagger from the drawer.

"This dagger was originally used by the young master for self-defense. When we found the young master, this dagger was stuck in the young master's chest. ”

Greene: "...... Can you tell me what was going on in the room when you found the body? ”

Butler: "At that time, the young master was lying there with his face facing up, and this dagger was inserted in the young master's chest. ”

Green crouched on the ground and looked at the floor where the blood was.

"No trace of struggle, a knife to death? Is it possible that it was suicide? ”

"Impossible!" The housekeeper did not hesitate to deny, "Young Master, he said that he wants to revitalize the family, and it is absolutely impossible to commit suicide at this time!" ”

"Hmm......" Green looked around, "and when you entered the room, were the doors and windows locked?" ”

Housekeeper: "Yes." ”

"A secret room?" Green glanced at the windows and doors.

The windows and doors are not locked, and the plug-in structure is used, which can only be locked from the inside.

"Little brother, you are the only mage on the ship. Aside from the young master, you are the only one who can lock the door from the outside. The captain stared at Green with a smile, "Do you have anything to say?" ”

The housekeeper stared at Green with hostile eyes.

Green looked at the two of them and couldn't help but pout: "Nonsense." With a rope, anyone can close the door from the outside. ”

Hearing Green's words, the two girls were slightly stunned.

Green looked at the broken deadbolt, "Find a door like this, and then find a rope that can pass under the crack in the door, and let's do an experiment." I'm going to prove to you that anyone can lock the door from the outside. ”

The two women stared at Grimm with flickering eyes.

"Hey, that's interesting." A smile appeared on the female captain's face, "I appreciate you more and more. Then the captain shouted out of the room, "Thurman, go find a thin thread that can pass through the crack in the door." ”

"Yes, Captain." The sailors who were guarding the door quickly left.

"Then let's go. We changed to a room with the lock still intact. I prove to you that anyone can lock a door from the outside. ”

Soon, the sailor came over with a linen string.

The gap under the door was small, but large enough for a linen string to pass through.

Under Green's guidance, the housekeeper tied the rope to the deadbolt in a specific way, and then threaded the rope through the crack in the door below.

Shut the door.

Pull the string a bit.

"Click!" Bang. The deadbolt locked.

"How? Simple, right? Anyone can easily lock the door from the outside if they want to, and there is more than one way. Green snorted twice, "Can I clear my name now?" ”

"No, I can't. This only proves that someone other than you is capable of closing the door from the outside, but it does not wash away your suspicion. The housekeeper refused without hesitation, "And if the murderer wasn't you, how did you know about it?" ”

"Don't make a fuss. I'm a 'learned' mage, do you know the strange methods of some thieves? Green was furious, "You have to be reasonable." I'm the least suspicious of all. If the death of your young master is not a suicide, then it can only be a planned murder. Judging from the fact that your young master was killed by a knife from the front, the murderer is an acquaintance that your young master will not guard against, and he is good at close combat, and he is also very clear that your young master does not have any protective props on his chest......"

As he spoke, the more Green spoke, the more he felt that something was wrong. If you think about it carefully, these two women in front of you seem to meet these conditions perfectly! If the murderers were the two of them......

Two women stared at Green.

A sense of foreboding welled up in Green's heart: "That...... Two ladies, the murderer can't be the two of you, right? You're not going to kill me and push the cauldron on me, are you? ”

There was a dead silence in the room, and the two women stared at Grimm without saying a word.
