Chapter 62: Case Analysis
The fax function is also included with this clockwork mechanism.
You just need to take paper and paint.
After a while, all the relevant information has been transmitted.
Han Dong turned on the speed reading mode, memorized the core content of the content in his mind in a few minutes, and returned to the car.

γOld Sewersγ
Lecturer Pasha held a reward order received by Han Dong and the others in his hand.
Staring at the enchanted sigil and ghost drawing at the lower end.
"This kid has only been in school for a week, and he actually went to perform such a difficult task...... The situation must be reported to Mr. Black and White, in case this kid is really dead, it will be trouble"
In fact, Pasha generally doesn't care about the life or death of students.
It's just that Han Dong's positioning is too special...... And, when it comes to Mr. Black & White, Pasha takes it seriously.
Who knows, Pasha had just finished editing a message full of honorifics and sent it to Mr. Black and White, and immediately received a reply.
"You don't have to worry about this, let Nicholas do it himself."
With this reply, Pasha stopped worrying about anything and continued to start her own experiments.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Boom boom!
Inside a private train room.
Cass, Han Dong and the other four are discussing this matter.
Rightfully talked about the 'ghost'...... In the team, who was prejudiced against Han Dong, Sophia also immediately asked:
"I heard that the Occult Department has a unique research and understanding of the creatures involved in 'pollution'.
Friend Andwa, do you have any unique insights into ghosts? β
"I don't think the probability of this event correspondingly to a 'real ghost' is too high......"
Han Dong's statement immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the carriage.
Although this kind of reward order directly given according to the investigation of local ordinary security personnel is 'restrictive', it will only be written on the reward order after a certain degree of professional review.
As soon as Han Dong came, he said that the 'ghost incident' that was written did not correspond to a ghost.
"Nonsense......"
"Fia, let Andwa say what he thinks."
Sophia's words were interrupted by Cass, who was so angry that her face turned red and she muttered...... It seems that Cass is more partial to Han Dong.
Han Dong explained carefully: "Everyone knows the characteristics of ghosts, right? Nearly invisible humanoid spirits, through a layer of cloth, usually white, to establish a connection with reality, usually at night. β
Cass nodded: "That's right...... These traits are consistent with the apparitions depicted on the bounty order.
Friend Andwar, how did you deduce that the target wasn't a ghost? β
"According to our mystical research, most ghosts are 'friendly', and their formation is not related to creatures outside the walls, but rather to nostalgia for real life...... Only a very small number of ghosts that have died unnaturally may have a Demonic Transformation.
Moreover, there is no description of the bounty in the accounts or images of the apparitions.
Even if the tentacles grow from outside the city walls, they are converging in the ghost's body, not as large as in the portrait. β
"Is it possible that there are special circumstances?"
"Possibly...... But this 'curse' makes me care a lot. After thinking about it for a long time, I seem to have seen this kind of evil spell in a medieval book.
The origin of the curse, plus the detailed characteristics of these non-ghosts.
I suspect that the probability that the target belongs to a ghost is small, and the high probability may be related to [Witch]...... Even, both are possible. β
When Han Dong gave the word witch, everyone in the carriage fell into deep thought, including Sophia, who had been targeting Han Dong.
Han Dong's explanation is undeniable.
It is not possible to draw a target as a 'ghost' based on the residents' description.
This curse mark is also crucial evidence.
Cass was silent for a moment and said, "If [Witch] is involved, the difficulty of the event may increase...... But we don't have conclusive evidence to report it to the Church or the Adventurers' Guild to increase the difficulty and bounty.
So be it!
At about one o'clock in the afternoon, we were on the streets of London.
Before the sun sets, complete the relevant investigations, and report to the Order as soon as there is sufficient evidence of the existence of the Witch. β
"Good!"
After this discussion.
The 'smaller' Koslin, who was adjusting the accuracy of the sniper rifle, added another point to his impression of Han Dong.
As a mysterious apprentice, Han Dong is fully qualified in the field of knowledge, and the next thing is to look at the actual combat ability.
"Anderwa! Yours ...... If we can't get the information of the 'witch' layer in advance, it may be dangerous for our team to break into the scene of the incident. β
Cass laughed heartily and wrapped one arm tightly around Han Dong, looking intimate.
The rest of the time, in order to relax, he chatted about some interesting things inside the academy, most of which revolved around Han Dong...... I want to know what the daily life of this top student of the mysterious department is like.
When Han Dong explained some of the situations in the [Old Sewer], especially when talking about the "plague physique", Sophia on the side had goosebumps all over her body.
After all, in order to establish a 'suitable' fungal environment in the body, even Cass is uncomfortable with the thought of the organs and the surface of the inner cavity being overgrown with fungi.
Everyone is very glad that they didn't choose the mystery department back then.
London streets, arrival.
"Gentlemen, do you want to buy newspapers? Today, the eldest son of the Roman family, won the place of "excellent file" in the [Library] major of the Knight Academy, we have an exclusive interview, and we have also collected some books that Roman probationary knights read on weekdays...... A newspaper costs only one penny. β
Pennies are a type of currency in the Holy City.
After all, the value of copper coins is extremely high, and when trading ordinary commodities, it needs to be supported by this small amount of auxiliary currency.
One hundred pence is equivalent to one copper coin.
"Is there any news about 37 London Street?" Cass asked.
When the newsboy heard this, his face became not very good-looking, and he seemed to know some inside information, and asked in a low voice: "You are a probationary knight?" β
Cass is experienced and slightly shows off a moment of gold cards in the waist pocket.
The newsboy was startled and gestured five fingers, "I know some, but the newspaper won't let me ...... Give me fivepence, and I will tell you what I know. β
Cass handed over five pennies and commanded:
"Take us straight there, talk as you go...... If you can say information that I think is valuable, it will also give you additional spending. β
"Thank you, Knight, for coming with me! 37th Street is not very far, and we only walked there for half an hour. β
