Chapter XIII: Joint Case Handling
Gtolenshire, Wada Township, Chaishu Lodge.
Captain Saraedin sat at the inn's bar. The boss repeatedly brushed the spotless countertop in one corner, not even daring to look at the mage who didn't seem to be in a good mood.
Of course, Zaredin didn't come here because he knew that Arrogant had settled here, he was here to wait.
He rushed directly from the neighboring county after receiving the communication from the magic crystal prism, and he was dealing with a mage duel death incident in the local county at that time, and the person in charge was not him, he went as a judge to evaluate the investigation ability of the three francs and high francs.
Although the Director of Legal Affairs did not give much information, Saraedin fully understood the importance of the case at hand, because as the Deputy Director of Legal Affairs, he did not need to investigate ordinary cases himself.
His relationship with the Director of Legal Regulation is not good, which is normal, and the relationship between the first leader and the deputy is generally not very good. But both of them are ministers, and no one dares to mess around when they encounter such an important case. Therefore, after talking to the director, he came directly with three quasi-francs and high francs, and more than 20 junior personnel below the apprenticeship franc were waiting for dispatch.
"Stop, the Ministry of Legal Affairs supervises the legal affairs department, and no one else stops," said the legal guard who was in charge of the guard outside the hotel.
"Oh, it's someone from the Legal Supervision Bureau, come so quickly, which house are you from?", the person who came not only ignored the warning of the legal guard, but also was very familiar with the Legal Management Department, there are many personnel in the Legal Supervision Department, and it is several supervision houses that are responsible for field investigations from the beginning.
Before the guards could react, Zaredin's voice came out first.
"I didn't expect it to be you, since you're here, let's go to the scene first. As soon as he had finished speaking, the men of Saradin came out.
The person who came didn't expect that it was this wrist who was dispatched by the Legal Supervision Bureau, and immediately reined in his demeanor, and pointed two fingers of his right hand obliquely to his left chest and saluted, "Respect the law and be safe, Captain Sareddin is on top, and he has not entered Kaya Nie Ertu to greet him." ”
Rao is an old-qualified legal management committee official like Saredin, and he is from a meticulous and elaborate legal supervision system, it is difficult to find fault with this Nie Ertu's etiquette, not only is there nothing wrong, but it is simply a little too polite - this is not a formal occasion.
Respecting the law is a greeting between mages, which is nothing, even if it is exquisite, it is generally only done on formal occasions, and it is also called the legal class of Saledin, and the people of the illegal management committee system call it so, even if it is to express respect and respect.
Of course, this polite Saredin is definitely worthy of it, but his face is also a little better, and he nodded at Nie Ertu, "When did you get the purple collar raised?"
"Grace of Mengfa, just promoted this year". Nie Ertu replied respectfully.
Nie Ertu really didn't expect the Legal Supervision Department to send Saledin, not that he didn't think the Legal Affairs Department would pay attention to it - it is normal to send a deputy director of the Legal Supervision Department to this case, but the deputy directors of the Legal Supervision Department are not all robed mages, this is not scientific, isn't there a principle of reciprocity?
As a senior advisor to the King's Spell Advisory Group, it is logical for him to come over to direct the royal family's investigation of this missing contact. He also knew that the Legal Management Department would send his own people, but everyone's tasks were different, and his original intention was just to come over to say hello and brush his face, and then go to work. Now he knew very well that this trip would be unsatisfactory.
Nie Ertu is a newly tied purple collar, while Saredin is a green robe that has accumulated years, and it seems that there is only one level of difference between them, but in fact they are one level worse. Under the suppression of this cultivation level, even if he said anything about the Dharma King, it was impossible for Nie Ertu to have the right to speak on an equal footing.
The location of the accident of the green-collar mages was found out two days ago, although the law prism mirror could not contact anyone, but the dignified legal management department, how could it be that they only had this means.
The Minister first seconded people from the Department of Instruments and the Department of Advanced Research to help, but after two days of getting it, the approximate location could not be decided. As a result, on the morning of the third day, Lord Bochma came again to "tactfully" care, and now the minister could not hold back his face, and it is said that he slapped the table, and the result came out - in the southeast of Gtolenshire. The ministry hastened to inform Zaredin of the news and also to the royal family, and it happened that the royal family had also received a report from a mouthless person that an anomalous spell activity had been discovered in the middle of the night near the town of Vata, Gtoren County. As soon as the two pieces of information were referenced, the scope was delineated at that time. This is why there is now a situation where people and horses on both sides are gathered together.
The scene is about a taeklow from the town, but the points where the objects are found everywhere are scattered within a radius of nearly ten tataeks, although Nie Ertu brought a lot of internal guards over, it is definitely not enough to fence the entire scene. So they sent a few people to watch at each point, and then divided a few people, at both ends of the road, at one stop on both ends of the road, to see that a trench car was coming, and directly asked them to take a detour, which was considered a blockade.
Most people saw that the internal guards closed the road, and left without saying a word, and there were a few who thought they were unambiguous, and the one who blocked the road showed the emblem of the royal magic advisory group, and the other party did not dare to blow up the stab. What? You say you don't even recognize the emblem, and you're still messing around? Then let you know why your uncle is your uncle -- get out of the car and kneel on the side of the road, and turn around and deal with it together.
The royal family is already so simple and rude, and with the title of the Spell Advisory Group, it is even more unscrupulous.
Before Nie Ertu went to the Chai Shu Hotel, he had actually seen two scenes, but he was silent and accompanied Saredin to inspect the scene.
Saradin didn't talk to him, and quietly looked at all seven points, except for the two traces of the corpse and the car, the rest of the scene was similar, even the corpse and clothes, all burned to ashes, and even the ground was broken and crystalline, fortunately there was no rain in the past two days, and the traces of the scene were well preserved.
"Nie Ertu practiced, you arrived before me, what do you think about these scenes?", after watching the scene, Sareddin asked.
"Back to the Captain, I am really not good at surveying before I enter, and I dare not talk nonsense, so I still ask the Captain for guidance. ”
Zaredin looked at him, "dishonest." But he didn't care, and looked sideways at the few francs and high francs who had been following behind him, "Tell me about it." ”
Several francs and high francs knew that this was the director of the school himself, and they glanced at each other, and one of them spoke first.
"The subordinates believe that this is ignited by a fire-based spell, and you can see that the barbecue marks of the inner and outer layers of soil are obviously different, and the boundary between the inner and outer rings is even, and I speculate that this is a fire pillar spell......"
Before he could continue, the other two were afraid that he would take up all the words, so they hurriedly grabbed the words.
"Also, there is also this inner layer of soil has been burned into crystals, it can be seen that the temperature of the flame is extremely high, and the duration is not short, I think the other party's elemental affinity is very high, if this person is not an elemental mage specializing in fire, then he may even be a robe mage. ”
"The subordinate also found that the area of the fire in several places was similar in size, and the direction of spread was also the same, and it was estimated that the time difference between the ignition and extinguishing of the fire in several places was very small, considering that the scene was more than a taekwon, I think the other party had at least seven mages of the same level. ”
"Hmph,"
After a few francs and high francs were finished one by one, Saredin saw that Nie Ertu still had no intention of speaking, snorted, and said: "Seven mages cast the fire pillar spell at the same time, just destroying the corpses and destroying the traces, do you need to do this? Not to mention seven, even five mages, it's too boring to do this, right?"
"Well, what does the Director mean, that there is only one person who will do it?", one of the high francs couldn't help but ask.
"I just wondered what the truth was, and it soon became known. ”
Although Saredin was not sure, several francs and high francs knew their own patriarchs very well, and they would never come out of his mouth without considerable certainty. However, everyone is an expert, and if it is a mage who simultaneously triggers seven pillars of fire within a radius of ten taeks, the accuracy of this spell control is too terrifying.
They didn't know that the one who had been on the side with a respectful expression was not only surprised, but also apprehensive.
Nie Ertu didn't take these francs to heart at first, after all, the secular mage and the commission master each chose different paths, and they were originally two types of people. Moreover, he is still a royal power, although he is not opposed to the mage of the commission, there is always competition. What's more, the three francs and the highest cultivation of the high francs are only green collars, if it weren't for Saredin's presence, he wouldn't be available to pee these people.
He had already seen what a few francs and high francs had analyzed, although the Legal Supervision Office was a professional magic investigation agency, but they were not much worse than secular mages with rich survival experience. But his goal is different from that of the Legal Department, which wants the truth, but it doesn't have to take people - the Legal Department hardly intervenes in private fights between mages. And he wants not only the truth, but also people, or human lives.
According to his previous analysis, to create such a scene, it would take at least four mages who were proficient in fire elemental spells. Although he was also surprised that the other party's forces could actually send four fire elemental mages at the same time, with the dignified purple-collar mages, plus a few people around him, he was still more than eighty percent sure of defeating the opponent. You say there's a bunch of internal guards to help? What can that waste do?
However, now that he heard Saradin say this, he couldn't calm down - what are you kidding, the opponent may be just one person?
Although Nie Ertu is not from the Ministry of Legal Affairs, Saredin is famous, and Nie Ertu also believes that it is impossible for him to make judgments casually. But in the remnants of the Lord Perelodo, how can there still be a figure at the level of a robed mage?
Of course, Nie Ertu knew very well that the mission goal of the green-collar mage was to capture the special teacher in charge of the Maharaja of Perelodo, who had assisted the Maharaja in escaping from the royal capital, and now the small town PhD scholar Gabobo. By the way, let's see if we can attract other remnants, and then catch them all.
The party of the Maharaja of Perelo Duo has been swept by the royal family many times over the years, and there is basically nothing left that can catch and kill, so Nie Ertu is relieved to send a green-collar mage to take charge of this matter, and he is afraid that the level is too high to scare the remnants of the party to show up, so he has only appeared as a green-sleeved mage, and even deliberately went around in a circle nearby to lead the other party to attack.
Such a despised force, you actually told me that there is a robed mage? Let's not joke, okay?
While he was struggling, a legal guard walked quickly, bowed down and said, "Report to the director, the master has arrived." ”
