Colin covered his nose and walked into the underground area of the ruined castle - although he didn't order his troops and horses to kill all the way last night, the Church of the Gods had already regarded the ruined castle as a thorn in the flesh, and the previous few whistleblowers who reported the problem had problems, and the church's agent confirmed them overnight, and found that they had either had their memories altered or received money and made malicious accusations.

The former was immediately thrown into the treatment center - memory modification is a more dangerous procedure, if it is a well-intentioned modification, more attention will be paid to the safety of the modified person when modifying, and if it is a malicious modification, the modifier will input some special memories into the head of the modified person, in addition to being used as a deception, these modifications can also be used to kill the modified person - the deceased usually does not speak.

And the one who received the money is quite easy to do - just hang yourself.

With this layer of information, early this morning, a team of technology hunters specially transferred by the substitute punishers of various churches and liaison guilds had already entered the abandoned castle area.

Then, of course, he came into contact with the xenos that Marin had said before.

Because of his reminder, Colin shared this information with the punishers of the Church of the Gods, and the most fearful thing about fighting xenos is not understanding, and as long as they understand the advantages and disadvantages of xenos, for punishers and technology hunters, it is really like an outing, and along the way, except for a few unlucky people who twisted their feet when they went up the mountain into the forest, there were no other injuries.

"Colin, bad news, someone was there before we came in."

The Substitute Punisher Commander of the Church of the God of Justice standing at the entrance flipped over the corpse leaning against the wall and said to Colin without looking back.

"The death did not last more than ten hours, and the greatest possibility is that he died at ten o'clock yesterday." Colin looked at his old friend and sighed - he had dissected so many corpses with old Ferrero, and just one glance made him think that the time of his death should have been around twelve o'clock last night.

I took out my pocket watch, opened the lid, well, nine o'clock in the morning.

At this time, a middle-aged man wearing the robes of the Church of the God of Justice walked over, he took over the place of the Substitute Commander to confirm the condition of the body, first examined the limbs of the deceased, then bulldozed him, cut the clothes on his buttocks, and glanced at the purple-red corpse spots on his skin: "Commander Camilla, the time of this person's death should be from eleven o'clock last night to one o'clock this morning." ”

"I don't want to admit how much you kid is at stake, but seriously, you're more reliable than the coroner." Camilla chose to believe what Colin said.

"I have seen a lot with Lord Ferrero, his corpse spots are concentrated under his buttocks and legs, proving that this is the first scene of death, he has a hole in his forehead that has been penetrated by an unknown object, the murderer should be a guy with a lot of strength, and the weapon in his hand is also very sharp, after killing him with one blow, the deceased slid against the wall and sat down." Looking at the somewhat puzzled Acting Agent of the God of Justice, Colin explained with a smile.

"Yes, Your Excellency is right, but why did you confirm the time of death before you confirmed the corpse spot?"

"I can feel a noticeable chill when I walk down, it's hotter here than outside, the deceased is not obese, so the temperature of the corpse will drop faster than the obese after death, and the temperature of the deceased will also fall faster after death, and the zombie has spread all over his body, when I just saw Camilla check his fingers, it was so hard that he needed to move to make his palm open, even if the temperature here is colder than outside, it will take time to become like this." Colin walked to the corpse and squatted down, he turned over the corpse's hand: "The most important thing is that in my spiritual vision, the temperature of the corpse has completely dissipated, and in such an underground area, it also takes time, and Marin They confirmed that there was something wrong with the ruined castle and began to run away when the sun set, it was about 7:30 at night, that is, at 7:30 last night, these people must have been alive." ”

The coroner still has some questions, and Colin will of course answer them: "The most important thing is that Marlin told us that the xenos used outflanking tactics against them last night, and that the first time we made contact with them this morning was two hours ago, and since then the xenos have been fighting us in a separate state.

So I think it's very likely that they'll be dead before seven-ten-hour. With that, Colin lit a cigarette for himself.

Camilla on the side smiled and clapped her hands: "It's quite an interesting reasoning, Colin, it's really a pity that you don't come to the Church of Justice God, you have the potential to become a detective." ”

"But I never wanted to be a detective." Colin waved his hand, then gave another cigarette to the coroner: "You are already very profitable, that is, you have lost in intelligence. ”

"Alright, let's move on."

Accepting Camilla's invitation, Colin smiled and followed him inside.

Along the way, there are dead bodies everywhere, and the cultists interpret the last end of the poem that belongs to each other's fate with all kinds of embarrassing and uninhibited deaths, and at the end of the underground area, Colin meets five cultists who have died on the ground.

"I think I recognize a guy." Glancing at the deceased with a short sword, Camilla kicked him in the head and looked at his face: "Isn't this the guy named Sheldon Caschiko wanted by your church?" ”

"It's also a wanted criminal in your church, someone killed him, but didn't take the loot that belonged to him, this guy can get 1,200 yuan just on the wanted list of our two churches, and counting those stinky fish and shrimp before, it's at least 2,000 yuan." Colin crossed his waist, a little puzzled: "Why didn't the people who killed them come to receive the reward?" ”

"Who knows, maybe it's because two thousand yuan is too cheap for him to deliberately bow down and cut off their heads." Camila frowned: "Detective, do you have anything to say." ”

"I'm just a singer of the Priesthood Sequence Ladder 6 of the Church of the Harvest Goddess, and I think you're embarrassing me, Camilla."

"If you don't say it, I'll forget you're a singer, Your Excellency Detective."

When the poisonous tongue between friends arrived, Colin suddenly noticed a bullet casing on the ground: "Bullet casing, maybe a very good breakthrough point." He picked up the shell, looked at it, and threw him into Karami's arms.

The latter took a look: "A shell without any production mark, we can't even confirm whether it was made by a dwarf or a human, is a completely useless clue, why did you throw it at me." ”

"That's why you're only Ladder 7 of the Church of the Just God's Church Church until now, and I'm Ladder 6." Colin skillfully tugged at the corners of his mouth: "Do you see the firing pin impact point on the tail of its projectile body?" ”

"See, what's the problem?" After Camila finished speaking, she looked at it again: "Very normal impact point, is there anything wrong?" ”

"The traces of the impact point are hexagonal, this is the new type of Romio 1418 rotary gun just launched by the Constance military factory this year, the firing pin is exactly hexagonal, the latest type of firing pin, there has been no similar design before, Constance those southerners have also specially blown for this, saying that such a firing pin can better ignite the primer, so that the dud rate can be reduced by at least 6%, I recently wanted to buy a new gun, and I have specially seen their advertising paper, but it is too expensive, A silver-stained Demon Breaker Wheel Gun costs fifteen hundred dollars, which is not as good as our church's homemade Wheel Gun, so I think we can see through their supply records who has recently purchased it at Fort Carter and in the surrounding area. ”

"Not a bad breakthrough...... No, how do you know? Camilla confirmed this, and when she looked up, his face was full of fanaticism: "I said, you are really good for being a detective!" Colin! Come to our church! Be my Watson! ”

Speaking of Watson, this is the popular detective novel that has recently become popular in Fort Carter and the surrounding area, Sherlock Holmes, a Pansian leopard man, the detective of the top step 4 of the detective sequence, and he has a half-elf good friend John Watson in the adventures of Sidney United Central Province.

There are four stories in a book, and each episode is a fascinating case to solve, and Colin heard that the first volume of 7,000 copies has been sold, and not only Sidney has a reader, but the book has even reached the eastern human kingdom, so now that the second seal has been arranged, the printing industry in Fort Carter has never faced such a challenge - a full 40,000 copies, of which 70% are stapled, which is why the bosses of the printing industry have such a headache.

And in Colin's view, the author must be a person from the central province, because he knows a lot of things about the central province, such as the cold jokes that only the central province understands, living habits, and so on.

Because of its excellent writing, it is very popular with detectives and other detectives, and even the average reader will indulge in the relationship between Mr. Sherlock and Miss Jane Moriarty - on the one hand, he is the leader of the detective world, the king of jokes, the representative of the cold aristocracy, and on the other hand, he is a genius in the criminal world, a thief who robs the rich and gives to the poor, and even a member of the common people.

From time to time, the two sides will show the interaction of love and murder in the story - because Mr. Sherlock never cared about fame, and his work would even be given to the police by himself as credit, so that the other party did not know the real situation, Miss Jane Moriarty even became Mr. Sherlock Holmes's laundry maid.

Although some people think that this identity arrangement is not good, but to be honest, Colin also likes this kind of story very much, as for why he likes it - because it resonates.

"No, I just think that if I were Mr. Sherlock, then I would never think of you as my John Watson, because you really can't do anything, and you can even do nothing." Colin rolled his eyes, then added, "You know, I'll give you this clue, I'm all for your good, you know, it's good for you." He wouldn't have confessed to Marlin - his reasoning was based on a chat with Marin, who had said that he could determine which gun fired a certain bullet by the impact of the firing pin.

This kid...... It really looks like the real son of the mentor said.
