Chapter 11: Murder in the Street

In the afternoon of the same day, the staff of the Duke of Windsor Jr. came to the branch office of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce in Doral City, and asked the Lord in person about the Duke's need for a magic monitoring system.

The Crescent Chamber of Commerce attaches great importance to this, and immediately said that it will design a magic monitoring system that meets the requirements of the Duke of Little Windsor as soon as possible, and said that because this is the demand put forward by the Duke, the Crescent Chamber of Commerce can give special treatment to the Duke of Little Windsor and implement the first set of free trial discounts for the magic monitoring system, which is equivalent to giving a set of systems to the Duke of Little Windsor for free.

The staff was very satisfied with this, and expressed their gratitude on behalf of the Duke of Windsor, and then euphemistically mentioned that his wife liked the new magic illusion series released by the Crescent Chamber of Commerce, and immediately received a complete set of illusion modules for storing magic illusion series from the Crescent Chamber of Commerce for free, as well as a latest-type small home magic projector, and then Shi Shiran left.

He went out on the front foot, and the person in charge of the Doral City branch of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce on the back foot got in touch with the headquarters of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce, which was about 2,300 kilometers away.

With the magical communication network that is now almost all the countries and the two empires in the southwest corner of the continent, although the two sides are separated by more than 2,300 kilometers, they can carry out instant communication that they would never have imagined before, and even through the new magical communication device with magic illusions, they can communicate almost face-to-face, which is naturally extremely convenient and fast.

The head of the Doral City branch clearly relayed the request from the Governor's Mansion in the southern province of the Candela Empire, and the headquarters of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce immediately took action.

The next day, an order for a magic illusion projector for the magic monitoring system with detailed requirements came to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and the magic illusion research department of the Magic Research Institute of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce immediately began to conduct targeted research.

At the same time. The staff of the Doral City Branch of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce has come to a place in Doral City designated by the Governor's Palace to experiment with the magic monitoring system to begin an on-site inspection.

Two days later. The detailed data was transmitted to the headquarters of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce and the Magic Research Institute of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

Four days later. The Magic Illusion Research Department of the Magic Research Institute of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has completed a study of the matching changes.

A week later, the first matching product left the Magic Illusion Projector production line of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.

At the special request of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce, this set of finished products did not go through the land transportation channel like other commodities, but was directly installed on the special air pipeline of the magic airship leading from Xinfei City to Doral City, and arrived at the special base of the magic airship outside Doral City in the evening of the same day, and joined the engineers of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce headquarters who also arrived here in the afternoon by magic airship.

One night passed, that is, on the morning of the eighth day of the Duke of Little Windsor's request, the staff of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce had already installed and debugged this set of equipment at the designated location in Doral City.

It's just past noon. After receiving the news, the Duke of Windsor Jr. was invited to the monitoring room to prepare for the final examination.

"Lord Duke, look, this is the current real-time image near the west gate of Doral City. The engineer in charge of the project of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce pointed to the illusion in front of him and explained it to the little Duke of Windsor. "With these real-time images, we can see everything that's going on in the area at any time. Even if you miss it for a while, there is still this thing......"

He pointed to a black box next to him.

"It's going to store magical illusions that you've been monitoring all day. If you don't know what happened here the day before, you can play the surveillance footage stored in the illusion module through any magic illusion projector, so you can clearly grasp anything that happened the day before. ”

"So amazing?" the little Duke of Windsor looked at the black and inconspicuous rectangular box in surprise, and touched his chin in thought. "Hmm...... That's a really nice feature. Even if I've been sending people to guard here. It is also impossible for him to maintain a high level of mental concentration at all times, and there will always be mistakes and omissions. With this video recording feature. That's a lot more convenient. But I have a question......"

"Your Excellency, Duke, excuse me. ”

"Isn't this thing a little too short if I want to go into what happened two days ago, or even many days ago?" asked the Little Duke of Windsor.

"This ......," the Crescent Chamber of Commerce's engineer gave a look of embarrassment. "Lord Duke, due to the current technical limitations, it is not possible to store more than thirty hours of magical illusion data in a standard fantasy module for the time being, so for the sake of safety, we have set it to a full day, that is, twenty-four hours. ”

"That's right...... Does that mean it can't be any longer?"

"It's not that it can't be longer. A person next to him suddenly said.

This person is an engineer in charge of technical support sent by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and the issue under discussion now has already involved the technical problem of magic illusion storage, so naturally it is time for him to go out.

"You can add one or more standard illusion modules to the magic illusion storage box to form a small module group, which can increase the capacity of the magic illusion storage and thus extend the recording time. ”

"Can that be extended to ten...... No, I'm afraid ten days is a bit too long, a week, how about a week?" asked the little Duke of Windsor.

"From a technical point of view, there is no problem. The engineer of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce nodded in response. "But Lord Duke, every time you add one more standard illusion module to form a module group, the technical requirements will increase exponentially, and the natural cost will also increase, so ......"

The Duke of Windsor looked back at the staff in charge of the matter

"How much does this set of equipment cost?"

"The Crescent Chamber of Commerce is currently quoting a set of two thousand four hundred gold coins. ”

Little Duke Windsor frowned: "It's really not cheap." And what if you increase the recording time to a week, how much more will it cost?"

All eyes were on the engineer of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.

The engineer of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce glanced at the person in charge of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce, thought for a while, and replied: "I have not done this kind of test before, but it is expected that the cost will increase by at least forty percent." ”

"Then it's more than three thousand gold coins for a set?" Little Duke of Windsor took a breath and asked, "If this thing can be monitored throughout the whole process, how many sets will it take?"

"There are no accurate statistics for the time being, but from the area of Doral City, it is estimated that it will take about 100 to 150 sets. ”

"In other words, it will cost a total of 300,000 or even 400,000 gold coins?" Little Duke of Windsor couldn't help but show a hint of pain this time, and turned his head to look at Count Apra, the city lord of Doral City, who was accompanying him.

Count Apra's heart was dripping with blood, but there was a righteous and awe-inspiring expression on his face.

"Lord Duke, in order to improve the security of Doral City and ensure the prosperity and stability of Doral City, these expenses are completely worth it!"

"Really?" asked the little Duke of Windsor, narrowing his eyes.

Count Apra did not immediately turn back this time, but turned his head to look at the magical illusion that clearly showed the scene near the western gate of the entire city of Doral, and hesitated in his heart.

Of course, he knew that if this thing could be successfully arranged, it would be of great help to Doral City.

But asking him to take out hundreds of thousands of gold coins from the financial income of Doral City in one go to spend on it, he couldn't help but feel a lot of pain.

After hesitating for a moment, he looked at the head of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce again.

"This ...... The price can we still talk about ......"

"Look!"

An official from the City Lord's Mansion of Doral City, who was present, suddenly shouted and interrupted Count Apra's words.

Count Apra glared at him dissatisfiedly, and was about to reprimand him, but saw that everyone's eyes were focused on the magic illusion, and quickly looked away.

As soon as he saw the magic illusion, his eyes immediately widened, revealing an extremely surprised expression.

The magical illusion was clearly showing that in a remote corner to the left of the West Gate, a young man of medium height was slowly drawing a short knife from the waist of another man.

This is obviously an extremely serious case of wounding!

When Count Apra was still in a daze, the little Duke of Windsor had already reacted and glared at Earl Apra angrily.

"What are you looking for? Why don't you go and get that guy up for me!"

Count Apra's body shook, and then he reacted, and hurriedly ordered the two personal guards behind him.

"Go ahead, get that guy here, and if you see his face and let him run, you two won't come to see me in the future!"

The two personal guards ran out as fast as they could.

Everyone's eyes were once again focused on the magical illusion, on the young man who had hurt someone.

The young man obviously did not hurt someone for the first time, and there was no panic on his face at all, and after wiping the knife on the clothes of the person he had stabbed, he casually stuffed it into his arms, and walked out.

However, before he could take a few steps, the two personal guards who had just gone out surrounded him with a group of city guards near the west gate.

Under the siege of so many people, he naturally could not have any ability to resist, and he was quickly captured.

Seeing that the young man had been controlled, Count Apra breathed a sigh of relief, and then couldn't help but snort coldly: "What a bold man! In broad daylight, he dares to kill people in the street! Look at me for a while if I don't treat him well!"

Today, under the noses of the Governor and a group of representatives of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Crescent Chamber of Commerce, such a bad incident actually happened in Doral City, which really made his face disgraced.

It is conceivable that the young man who committed the murder will end up very miserably.

"City Lord, what did you want to say before?" the person in charge of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce suddenly asked with a smile on his face.

Earl Apra glanced cautiously at the little Duke of Windsor, and once again put on a righteous and awe-inspiring appearance.

"Nothing, I just wanted to ask, how long will it take to set up such a magic monitoring system in the whole of Doral City?" (To be continued......)
