"One of my biggest concerns. Catherine's eyes flashed, and she said in a deep voice, "This is a very important question. ”

They shared the honey water and drank it. Pannis stretched out his hands and said sadly, "I haven't even drunk it myself." ”

"Okay, then I'm fine. Catherine covered her face sadly and said disappointedly: "I drank it once when I was a child, I have to admit it, that one is really great, and, do you collect money?"

"I really wanted to take it, but they boycotted it. Pannis sighed helplessly, "I knew you would be sad." ”

"It seems that you are recovering well, eldest sister. Seeing that Catherine instinctively grasped the point of a bottle of water with one hundred and eighty silver coins, Lina finally said with reassurance: "In this case, it is better to tell you about the situation on your side, such as why you are here." ”

"What is her state?" Catherine frowned, and whispered to Pannis, "Why do you look like a big lady? I've never seen her like this before." ”

"A new one I found on the road. Pannis shrugged: "And then it's like this, today is the second day, I guess it should be changed tomorrow." During the previous period, she changed her image every day, and everyone was used to her problem, and they would not be angry because of these small problems in attitude. ”

"That's fine. Catherine breathed a sigh of relief and said to Lina: "Let's finish your experience first, and then I'll talk about ours, our side is actually quite ordinary, and there is not much to say." ”

"Well, it's actually easier later. Lina said: "The key was to find a breakthrough before, but now that there is a Ricela father and son honey water shop as a breakthrough, it is easy to do." ”

"No, it's not that easy. The priest of the gods preemptively said: "Let me tell you, you or Pannis, you always like to say some things very plainly, but the things that you downplay are actually what we admire about you and Mr. Pannis." ”

"Once we found the breakthrough, we rushed back to Dilsalen as soon as we finished the rest of the finishing work. First thing when I go back. It is to ask the lord for an executive order asking the Richella father and son to cooperate with our investigation. It was also very simple for him to do it, because their honey water only had a shelf life of thirty days, so they asked him to provide these thirty days. Information on all customers. ”

"For other stores, it may be difficult to do it, but Ricella & Sons is the opposite, they want to provide it easily. Because they basically only take one order a day, and they are all big customers and regular customers, and most of them know which family bought the drinks."

"Thirty days, he gave us the names of thirty-one of the big customers, because the servants of two of them lined up together and bought the day's drink together. After getting that list, I would have liked to ask the lord to intervene and temporarily control the thirty-one rich people, and then search their mansions. But the lord thinks that if three or four people are okay to say, thirty-one. They are all families with status, and the influence of all control is too great, so I hope we can narrow it down. ”

"After that, we plan to go to the thieves of the Shadow Hand and infiltrate each of these families to find clues, but the Shadow Hand doesn't have chapters in every city, and Dilsaren just doesn't. And it is not entirely possible to believe that there is no collusion between the Shadow Hand and the murderer. Just when we couldn't find a way, we found that Mr. Pannis was missing. ”

"You're not going to sneak into someone's house to spy on the maid again, are you?" Catherine suddenly turned her head and glared at Pannis, "I think it's very likely." ”

"You've broken me so much, Catherine. Pannis said aggrievedly: "I am obviously working hard to find out the truth, but you actually suspect me of peeping, am I that kind of person? When did I really peep. ”

Catherine was stunned, bowed her head wordlessly, and began to count the number of times, once, twice, three times...... When all ten fingers have been used up. When he started to use it a second time, Pannis exclaimed, "Hey, have you counted so many times?"

"Haha, but when we found Mr. Pennis, he was indeed being chased by the family's guards, saying to catch voyeurs. Teresa chuckled and said, "We were all surprised." ”

"Hey. Just after eating the dinner I cooked, you said bad things about me, and you changed your mind too quickly. Pannis's eyes widened, and he rolled his eyes as if he was dying, and said, "Accept my love dinner, but treat me like this, you ......"

"Isn't this a loving dinner for Marcia?" the holy priest tilted his head, feigned a puzzled expression, and blinked his eyes, "Whose is it?"

"Huh, this ......" Pannis laughed dryly, and suddenly said seriously: "It's not early, let's hurry up and tell the story, it's too late to go to bed." ”

"Alas. Catherine rubbed her forehead and sighed, "You shut up." I've found that as long as you don't interject, the story will be told quickly. ”

"It's bias. As soon as Pannis was about to continue, he saw Catherine's threatening gaze and lowered his head aggrievedly: "Okay, okay, I'll shut up, I'm so pitiful." ”

Pannis, who had his head down, didn't see a smile on the corner of Catherine's mouth. Since Pannis joined, Catherine has felt that she has been suffering from headaches every day, and massaging her forehead has become a daily routine. But in the past ten days of separation, Catherine and Vivian both found that they had only been together for a few months, but suddenly there were no daily headaches and nonsense, but there seemed to be a lot of things missing, which made people feel empty in their hearts. Now that we meet again, although it is only a little more than an hour, I suddenly feel that my life is complete again.

"There was no Mr. Pannis, and everyone was surprised. Teresa continued: "It was the Sage Helena who knew Mr. Pannis better, and she decided that Mr. Pannis had used his own methods to find out the inside of these thirty-one rich men, and she would definitely find them in the vicinity of these rich mansions. Although we didn't believe it at the time, we went to find it according to Helena. Unexpectedly, when I first found the third house, I met Mr. Pannis. ”

"When I met him, he was being chased out of the mansion by a large group of guards, and he was still shouting as he ran, saying that I really didn't peep, I was just passing by to see the scenery or something. At Helena's request, everyone pretended not to know the man at all, and watched as he was chased far away by a group of people. It was about five minutes before the chasing guards returned to the courtyard out of breath, and it was a few minutes before Mr. Pennis returned. ”

"When we returned, Mr. Pannis told us directly that the family must have something to do with the murderer. The reason was also explained to us, the owner of this family went out for winter hunting just four days ago, and he had just returned that day. After he sneaked into the courtyard, although he did not enter the house because there were too many guards inside, it was too troublesome to enter, but he carefully inspected the horses and carriages used by the master for winter hunting. In the gap between the horseshoes of seven of the horses, he found the same soil as the one near the town, and on the wheels of the carriage, he also found a small stone with a similar texture to the gravel on a gravel field near the town. ”

"With this as evidence, after we reported to the lord, the lord transferred the nobleman and his immediate family on the grounds of an outing to enjoy the snow, and also transferred most of the guards. Taking advantage of this opportunity, we infiltrated his mansion, but in his mansion, except for a few secret letters to contact the murderer, we found no trace of the murderer, which means that the murderer is not hiding in his mansion, but only has contact with him. ”

"But that's enough, these few secret letters are enough to convict him. With the secret letter in hand, we went out of the city again, secretly caught up with the lord, and handed the secret letter to him. This time there was a sufficient reason, the lord immediately arrested the nobleman, secretly escorted him back to his mansion in Dilsalen, and the lord came forward, led the army into the mansion quietly, controlled all the guards, and after the personal search was fruitless, he began to ask about the whereabouts of the murderers, and even made the condition that as long as he told the identity and whereabouts of the murderer, he would not be held responsible, but the nobleman resolutely refused to disclose the news. ”

"Time is pressing, once the news leaks, those murderers may be transferred at any time, compared to that nobleman, it is also an opportunity to delay time to create a transfer for the murderer. But knowing this, no one has a good way, even if the lord wants to torture that nobleman to extract a confession, time may not be in time. As a result, just when everyone was worried, Helena Sage stepped forward and took responsibility. ”

"I didn't know before, no matter how careful and cautious a person is, as long as he is still a living person, he will reveal a lot of details in his every move, and I never thought that someone could easily grasp these details and then use these details to deduce more real content, Helena is a kind of learning this knowledge for everyone. ”

She didn't really do anything special, except to have the soldier walk around the nobleman's house with him, and then spent two minutes in each of the three rooms that Helena had chosen individually, and then found a secret room in one of them, a burglar-proof storage compartment in the second, and finally a codebook in the remaining room. When she told the nobleman, who had told her that it was all the nobleman himself, the nobleman had almost completely collapsed. ”

"With the codebook, we easily deciphered the letters found in the secret compartment and the secret room, and found that the hideout of those murderers was in an abandoned villa mortgaged by a bankrupt merchant not far from the city, and the murderer's team was not small, at most there were four legends and ten gold professionals, but now there should only be two legends and four gold ranks. ”

"We don't have enough strength, so we want to go and check the situation before asking for reinforcements. As a result, when they got there, they found that all the people in the Legend Rank had left, and only four Gold Rank professionals were left to guard them. (To be continued.) )
