Avina has been a little irritable lately, and she feels irritable from the bottom of her heart.

Because of Lu Xi and her student, she is probably the one who cares most about the strange things now, and she is the closest to the news in the weekly magazine.

Even in private, Avina had already figured out how to extract a confession from Lu Xi.

I tried to take advantage of the fact that as the editor-in-chief of "Cloud Weekly", I didn't know the latest news yet, so I took the lead in pocketing the latest gossip.

However, contrary to her wishes, since the news shook the entire city of Skyward, Avina has not seen Lu Xi again.

On the day when the news spread, it was said that Lu Xi also went to the princess's mansion, and Avina naturally did not succeed in catching Lu Xi.

Since the second day after that day, Lu Xi has been going back and forth between the college conference and the dean's office for more than ten consecutive days in order to prepare for this year's freshman education reform, and Avina is of course embarrassed to disturb herself.

As for the new semester finally started at the college, and the attempt at educational reform was also approved, Lu Xi finally seemed to have to stop running around for this, and the college suddenly started a week-long freshman training.

Avina, who couldn't suppress the fire of gossip for a long time, was almost driven crazy by this interruption again and again.

So much so that in recent days, Avina has even been compiling this work as the editor of "Frontiers of Magic", in the eyes of others, she is extremely irritable, and no one dares to anger her at all.

"The editors in the group were asked to review the manuscript for me, and the manuscript that was falsified last time was the one they decided to accept. As for the second and third groups, don't be complacent, one group will be able to search for some ideas worth seeing. If you look at what you're advocating for, it's simply lowering the quality of the publication. ”

With the bombardment of Avina's Taoist language, the entire editorial office of "Frontiers of Magic" has long been in a silent silence.

After all, reasoning with an angry tigress is undoubtedly a self-defeating act.

However, others can keep their heads silent, but it is impossible for a new editor who has just been given a new task not to report his follow-up in a timely manner.

So a weak voice sounded from the corner with a slight panic:

"The murder you brought me to attention to, after the investigation of the remnants of Qi energy that we conducted on the ground, we can already determine that it was indeed a killing caused by magic. ”

"So...... Do you really want to break with tradition and put this event on the frontier of magic?"

......

Having a friend like Lu Xi, or being able to be the best friend with Lu Xi, there is no doubt that Avina is actually in her bones...... He is also a person who is as eager for reform as Lu Xi.

And compared to Lu Xi's restrictions in the academy, Avina, who has a background in a magical family, naturally has an advantage that no one can match in terms of initiating reforms.

Therefore, when the newly recruited editor took the initiative to mention that Avina was making this change.

Even Avina, who was unhappy in her heart, finally became serious:

"Now come with me to the site and submit to me all the information you have collected about the traces of magic, and then submit to me in the form of a written manuscript. ”

As soon as Avina finished speaking, she walked out without question.

As for the budding editor behind him, he naturally had to quickly pack up and follow.

The killing took place on top of an old clock tower in the Yunshang District.

And compared with the most prosperous business districts in the Yunshang District, in fact, it is this slightly lonely clock tower that is the real geometric center of the entire Yunshang District.

When Avina arrived with Xiao Mengxin from the editorial department, the garrisons of the Hanging Mountain Corps in the garrison were handing over the matter to the security office of Yunshang District.

Although the bodies were first found by the corps garrison who carried out routine city defense inspections to climb the bell tower.

But the murder that happened in the city should actually be investigated by the Sheriff's Department.

Seeing Avina's arrival, whether it was the chief of the police department who had already recognized Avina's identity, or the centurion of the Hanging Mountain Corps, who had great respect for the mage, they all bowed politely to Avina.

Seeing this, Avina was not polite, and directly expressed to the two in front of her:

"After an investigation by a mage in the editorial department, we have determined that this case is related to magic, and if you need the cooperation of a mage, I think I can help you!"

However, no matter how clever Avina's words were, the sheriff after hearing the words still saw through Avina's true thoughts at a glance.

Undoubtedly, the main purpose of Avina's trip was certainly not to help.

Instead, I need to know more details of the case from the two people in front of me.

However, the sheriff who guessed Avina's thoughts did not immediately introduce the case to Avina, but turned his head to look at the clock tower where the real case occurred.

Then he pointed to a figure standing high above the bell tower and continued:

"I think that the only person who has put all the information together and knows the whole thing best is probably the one who is recording the scene on the bell tower...... Editor-in-chief of the journal next door, Whale Fall!"

......

This bell tower in the geometric center of the Yunshang District is actually the earliest batch of buildings in the entire Yunshang District.

And with the prevalence of the ingenuity technology brought about by alchemy, things like pocket watches and vertical clocks have long become essential things in every household, and the practical value of the clock tower has become weaker and weaker.

So much so that the bell tower, which is still preserved, seems to be only used as a symbol more often, but in fact it does not have much important timing.

"But all of us underestimate the true value of the bell tower. ”

As Avina also climbed the bell tower, the editor-in-chief of the weekly magazine who came to record the scene in person had already noticed Avina's arrival and was the first to speak.

Seeing this, Avina immediately threw away a questioning look.

At this moment, the whale fell, but still unhurriedly, made an inviting gesture to Avina and let her come to the lookout on the top of the bell tower.

Then he pointed to the roads leading to the bell tower and asked Avina:

"From your mage's point of view, if there is a huge magical structure buried below the ground in the entire cloud area, then the core of the formation is ...... Where the hell will it be?"

As soon as Whalefall's words fell, Avina understood what he was trying to say.

There was no doubt that if there really was such a thing in the Upper City Cloud District of Skevo, then its most critical core array could only be located where the bell tower was located.

And the whale drop didn't stop there after saying this.

Instead, he invited Avina, who was becoming more and more confused, to look back at the inside of the bell tower.

The overall structure of the bell tower is actually a hollow tower-like structure, so from the opposite side of the highest view, you can directly see the ground on the ground of the bell tower from a high vantage point.

But with such a few glances, Avina was already extremely stunned to discover that behind this murder was ...... Its true hidden secrets.

I saw that on the inner wall of the bell tower, many corners that were extremely difficult to detect, but now under the traces of some kind of liquid drying up, they showed the original carved patterns.

And the lines themselves...... It is also the magic text that I am most familiar with as a mage!

Even at this moment, Whale Fall added again:

"The Hanging Mountain Corps, which is in charge of guarding the Yunshang District, is probably because of what you see now. And the victim who was killed, his body was found by the Hanging Mountain Corps, and it was also hung inside the bell tower. ”

"Someone used the blood of the dead to reactivate these words in the corners of the inner wall, thus achieving some unknown purpose. So the real question now is, what is the purpose of these magical words carved into the walls of the bell tower?"

"Only by confirming the murderer's purpose can we truly understand the murderer's most fundamental motive!"
