Chapter 43: Clues
When darkness rises, a horde of non-human and non-animal creatures crawls out of forests, sewers, and perennially closed basements to slaughter humans. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info they were surrounded by an aura of despair, following the footsteps of the demons with revenge and hatred.
This is a group of people with the upper body and a snake-tailed spider fish and horse wolf with the lower body...... of synths. Players are tasked with finding its origins, and after a series of investigations, it is revealed that they were once young maidens who were taken captive to the forest and created into monsters by an alchemist named Anies. Some scholars have suggested that his purpose may have been to pursue eternal life, but many more have rejected his view that the animals he chose were not long-lived animals. Lin Yanxiao felt that this alchemist was a pervert, otherwise he wouldn't choose so many people in the world, he would have to choose a girl, or a girl with common characteristics. Do perverts need a reason to do things? Perverts are reasons!
"What are the characteristics of these disappeared girls?" Lin Yanxiao wanted to remind the prosecutor from the side, and he wrote on the paper.
The prosecutor frowned and thought as the clerk next to him, who was taking notes, opened his notebook and said, "The eldest of these three girls is fifteen years old, and the youngest is ten years old......;
Lin Yan smiled at him and didn't say anything about the point, and simply wrote directly, "What do they have in common?"
The clerk didn't think about it, flipped through the notebook, and after confirming it, he was surprised and said, "Found it...... These girls are red-haired and green-eyed!"
The prosecutor's eyes lit up and he said, "Did the initiator commit the crime according to this standard?" Your Excellency, you are so witty, why didn't I think of this. ”
"One or two are special events, and the appearance of the third victim is not accidental. I just thought that an experienced prosecutor like you, even if I hadn't reminded him, would have found out about this sooner or later. Lin Yan smiled and wrote, and also complimented the prosecutor. His point is only one part of the quest, and it is traced back to the alchemist who has a red-haired and blue-eyed daughter, but the poor girl has also been made a synth by her cruel father. Of course not, but his first success was his daughter, and he felt that using this type of material would increase the success rate.
The superstitions of alchemists.
Lin Yanxiao's help made the prosecutor very satisfied with him, although this young man has been hiding in his cloak and does not want to see people, but geniuses always have some quirks, he once saw a C-level alchemist who was only seventeen years old, and he had to be fed by someone himself, and he had never worn clothes when he was so old, but who dared to say that he was an alchemist, a human being with strong thinking ability and hands-on ability.
"What do you think we're going to do next?" asked the prosecutor with a pleasant face, he really wanted to get advice from Lin Yanxiao.
Lin Yanxiao pointed his finger at the forest, and the prosecutor raised his eyebrows, "Do you think we are going to search the forest?"
Lin Yan smiled and nodded, and the fat dudu who had been a pillar behind him was shocked, "My lord, don't you know how big this forest is? It straddles Lip County and borders Rongz County and Letz County, and the area of a forest is as big as a county! That's it, even people like me know how dangerous the forest is, except for powerful warriors, ordinary people will never dare to enter and leave the forest at will!"
Lin Yan patted his stomach with a smile and said dissatisfiedly, "Am I an ordinary person!"
"You are so insistent on finding clues in the forest?" the prosecutor asked, seeing Lin Yan smile and nodding, he said, "I believe you won't lie to me, so it seems that I don't have enough manpower at all." Clerk, go to the City Lord's Mansion to explain the situation to him, see if you can send the Knights over, and if you can, issue a D-class mission to the Mercenary Guild, who can find the clue and provide a reward of ten gold coins!"
Fat Dudu suddenly didn't care about anything when he heard the ten gold coins, and the ten round cuties flew around in his eyes, and Lin Yanxiao raised his hand and slapped him on the back. "You are not allowed to go. ”
I finally found someone to summon, and if I die, I have to look for it again, trouble.
Fat Dudu's eyes rolled, he lowered his head and agreed, Lin Yanxiao didn't care if he really promised or not, if he was the kind of person who violated yin and yang, he didn't want to use it even if it was troublesome.
"While I'm waiting, I'll go into the forest first. Lin Yan wrote with a smile.
The prosecutor said worriedly, "You're a mage, don't you need a guard to keep you safe?"
Lin Yanxiao rejected his kindness, he was not the mage with thin skin and tender flesh that people had in their impression, if he really let the twenty or so people under him follow, he didn't know who would protect whom.
Without further ado, Lin Yanxiao made a little preparation, and went to the forest after taking the food prepared by the "kind" hostess of the manor. The prosecutor ordered the girl's room to be closed and no one was allowed to enter, but after he left, a man opened the window, took the paper on the table where Lin Yanxiao had written something, and looked at it a few times, and then ran towards the center of the manor.
"What's the characteristic?Dolly, do you remember what the girl looked like?" said the baroness, leaning gracefully on the bench, and asked her son, who was sitting at the bottom.
"It looks okay, but people are very boring, and they can't say a word for a long time, and they are really mud legs from the countryside, and they don't know how to take advantage of the opportunity. Dolly gestured as the two sweet-looking maids behind him covered their mouths and smiled.
"You, do you know how to converge, anyone can enter your eyes. The baroness seemed to rebuke him helplessly.
"By the way, I remember, isn't she red-haired? I heard two days ago that there is a red-haired girl in the city who disappeared, isn't that a trait?" said Donna suddenly.
The Baroness was pleasantly surprised: "Good Donna, it seems that you are still useful." ”
"Mother asks what is this for?" said Dona, confused.
"Hmph, that mage has embarrassed us so much today, how could I let him be appreciated by the prosecutor so easily. The housekeeper went to tell the prosecutor, and the manor was left to him to handle the case, and the subordinate was for him to call. Our family went to stay in town for a few days. "I see that the procurator intends to send men into the forest, and that there are a few people who can go in and out with him." Mrs. Emi is holding a ball tonight, her son is a D-class knight, and her daughter is just red-haired, I want to see who is more important than the family and the mission. ”
Lin Yanxiao and the others didn't know that the baroness planned to trap them behind their backs, and when they heard that the baroness lent them the manor so generously, the prosecutor thanked her well, and before getting into the carriage, Dolly, who was about to become an alchemist, clapped his hands, as if he suddenly thought of something and said: "Dear prosecutor, I remember that the missing maid happened to be red-haired, and so was the girl who disappeared in front of me." I think this is interesting, and I hope you'll notice. ”
The prosecutor didn't expect him to really bring up what Lin Yanxiao thought of, but he affirmed him a little more. This young man has many aristocratic shortcomings, but he was able to inherit the status of a baron safely, but he still chose to study in the Alchemist Guild, which seems to be quite progressive.
Seeing the prosecutor's admiring gaze, Dolly was complacent and had a shy smile on his face. He stepped into the carriage, and the baroness patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction, and said, "It is worthy of a child who can become an alchemist, and his brain is spinning fast." ”
Dona pouted uncomfortably on the side, obviously she said it, and my brother knew that he had robbed others of the credit, which was really hateful!
Bidding farewell to the Baroness, the prosecutor, who had finally found the clues, was ready to make a big move, when a fat shout came from the room: "What? They didn't take my father away? What is he doing here as a patient?"
The prosecutor's face darkened, and the good feelings that had just risen in the Baroness's family were swept away. Fat Dudu hid behind the door, patting his stomach and looking at the prosecutor's face, "Let you be embarrassed, I won't be as good as you want!"
