The Grey Keep, Winterless.

Everyone in the police department was in a hurry, conveying orders and reporting the case in an endless stream, and the appearance of the red moon has become the hottest topic in the past few days, and it has also made the entire organization busy.

As the new royal capital of the Gray Castle, the residence of His Majesty Roland, even if there is a little turmoil in the city, the police department must find out the cause and record it, not to mention the major incident of fire and explosion at the same time.

Carter Lannis, who had not closed his eyes for almost two days and two nights, had calmed down his frightened wife that day, and he threw himself into his work—the safety of His Majesty was always the first duty of the Chief Knight, and he would not tolerate any disturbances here. According to past experience, if an accident occurs at multiple locations at the same time, it must be a gang, so he immediately invited the Neverwinter Detective Team to assist the police department in the investigation. Carter believed that if he pursued the plots carefully, he would soon be able to bring the plotters to justice.

However, after a large number of reports were handed in, a joint investigation team consisting of the Witch Alliance, the Kingdom Security Service, and the Police Department of the Executive Office was formed, focusing not on the accidents or crimes that occurred in the city, but on the new Shadow as the main part of the investigation.

"My lord, the witnesses have been brought," said one of the knights, "are you going to start questioning?"

Carter put aside his distractions, drank the strong tea in his cup, nodded, and said, "Let's get started, and invite the others in by the way." ”

"Yes. ”

Since he was not an interrogator, the interrogation was conducted in a temporarily vacated office in order to accommodate the emotions of the other party. In addition to him, the main members of the joint investigation team were Ms. Agatha and Deputy Chief of Security Vader.

The first witness brought into the house was a hostess at a hotel, 21 years old, an informal resident with no criminal record.

She looked nervous and sat in her chair rubbing her hands together.

Carter glanced at the information in his hand and asked in a deep voice, "Miss Linglong, right? I'm curious, the ticket price for the premiere of "Annihilation Dust" is as high as fifty gold dragons, where did you get such a huge sum of money?"

"My lord, this is definitely not what I stole or robbed!" the other party hurriedly defended, "The guest I took care of, Mr. Victor, was worth a lot of money, and he paid for me, and many people in the executive hall noticed it on the day I bought the ticket, and I swore that I didn't lie!"

In fact, he had already sent someone to find out the bottom of these preliminary investigations, and the first question was just to increase the invisible pressure, so that the other party would not dare to talk nonsense easily, after all, Miss Nightingale was not here. "Victor, is that right? We'll check with him later. Now let's talk about what you saw at the end of the Shadow. ”

"Yes......" the maid's voice trembled slightly, "I didn't quite understand what was going on at the time, as if those hallucinations had become real......

After a quarter of an hour, she stopped, "It's good that the pursuers were repelled by the police, otherwise I wouldn't have imagined the fate of those two." ”

Carter frowned, he had also seen the Shadow of the Devil, although "Wolf's Heart" was thrilling, but it was not exaggerated to this extent.

"Are you sure the pursuer's weapon hurt the spectators?"

"I ...... Not sure, but Mr. Victor's face was bleeding, and the screams of the other wounded didn't look like they were disguised......"

"Do you remember when this happened?"

"About 10 minutes before the end?" or more...... Sorry, I was so scared that I hid in Mr. Victor's arms almost all the time. ”

"Do you have any questions?" Carter looked at the other two.

Agatha pondered for a moment, "If I understand correctly, the characters in the Shadow have spoken to you, right?" she picked up a picture, "Is that this the person?"

The photo shows the actor of the Star Flower Troupe, playing the role of the witch guardian in the play.

"That's right, it's him, I remember very well, he thanked us at the time!"

Carter couldn't help but get goosebumps when he heard this, he naturally knew that once the filming of the Shadow was completed, it would not be possible to change its contents, and it would be impossible for him to talk to himself.

Seeing that the two of them were no longer talking, he waved his hand to his subordinates, "Let's replace the next person." ”

The subsequent witness statements were also similar, in short, everything in the shadow seemed to come to life, and although it was later proved to be a false alarm, it did happen at the time, and the mutual application of the testimonies meant that it was not the result of a personal hallucination.

Since Carter had been so focused on the fires and explosions the other day, he hadn't paid much attention to the reports of the panic in the theater, and now he vaguely understood why the above were more concerned about it.

The next witness was the policeman who was standing in the courtyard at the time and was responsible for maintaining order, the squad leader of the second team. ”

"Let him in. ”

The captain was obviously much calmer, and quickly explained the course of the matter, "I first heard the cries and cries for help from outside, and when I was about to go out to find out, I noticed that there was an extra red moon in the sky at some point. To be honest, I was a little hesitant to be stationed at my post or to help those who were in distress. Just then, a witch ran out of the back door of the viewing room, and she asked me to enter the room immediately with my men to protect all the spectators. ”

"And you shot off the pursuers in the shadows?"

"It may sound strange, but that's exactly what it is – they may just be actors, but they are a real threat to the audience at the time. Plus I always thought that these were just hallucinations, so I didn't hesitate. ”

The penultimate one to be questioned was none other than the witch who was playing the shadow at the time, Sunset.

"What can I do, I'm also desperate, originally activating the time sigil is the job of whoever has more magic than whom, who knew that this kind of problem would arise?" she complained as soon as she entered the door, "I put it in a good place, and suddenly the sigil squeezed me out of sight." I should have stopped the mana input immediately, but it didn't stop at all. I tried to wake up the audience, but there was no response to the push, it was like falling into the seed of sleep. Anyway, I've tried my best, and I can only ask the guards for help. ”

Agatha twitched the corners of her mouth, "It's a sigil...... Squeezing you out?"

"Probably, I did feel a repulsion from it, as if the magic had been poured in enough and began to overflow, and then the vision returned to normal. ”

"Okay, next. ”

When the last person walked into the office, Carter couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and the other person was actually the writer of the play, Cajun Fez.

As soon as he sat down, he clenched his fists excitedly.

"God above, this is definitely the best drama I've ever seen in my career!"

"You were in the theater at the time?" Carter frowned. Because the other party had an argument with his wife, he has always been quite resistant to the theater master, "I checked the list of the first viewers, and you were not on it. ”

"He was backstage at the time, and he was specially arranged to sit - in fact, the members of the Starflower Troupe don't need to buy tickets to see their own performance of the Shadow, didn't your wife mention it to you?" replied to the Ice Witch for Kakin, "In fact, it was his report that made His Majesty take the matter seriously and send the Witch Alliance to investigate." ”

"I'm sorry, it's my personal habit," Kajin said apologetically, "as long as it's a script written by myself, I always like to watch it with everyone without revealing my identity, so as to feel the most direct reaction from each audience." Ms. Maye probably knew this and didn't reveal it to you in advance. "I must say that this Shadow is an absolute miracle in the history of theatre – because the audience rewrote its ending!"

"What did you say?" said Carter, surprised.

"You heard it right, Your Excellency, that's not how my script is written!" said Cajun Fez, waving his hands, "In the original story, this was a sad ending, and in order to cover his sweetheart, the Guardian attracted the attention of all his pursuers, and finally fell off the cliff, leaving the witch alone. But I didn't expect that the two of them would be rescued by the audience, so that both of them survived, is there anything better than this?"

The chief knight was dumbfounded.

"Those lines are not from my pen, but they have made up this memorable passage by themselves, just like the people in the play say, the audience not only saved them, but also changed their fate!" Kakin couldn't help but exclaim, "This is the ultimate drama I've been looking for, if you can find the reason, please tell me!"
