When the mages arrived to help, they quickly began to extinguish the fire from above with water magic, and when the fire was a little smaller, the door to the warehouse was opened, and the guards and security teams in the warehouse area were finally able to play their role and began to extinguish some of the dark fires that could have been resurrected. However, nearly an hour had passed, and the person in charge of the warehouse area finally arrived when the fire was completely paved, but looking at the scene in front of him, the person in charge who was still wearing pajamas almost fainted to death on the spot.

Several warehouses of Sir Phillips, one of the three giants of the Free City, have been completely burned down, all the goods worth at least hundreds of millions of lien have been burned, and even some precious metals and minerals stored in the heat have been melted into molten iron, and the whole fire scene can be described as terrible. The thought of the anger of the great slave trader Sir Philipus, and the thought that he would go bankrupt in an instant and even his family would become slaves, the person in charge woke up with an almost uncontrollable howl.

There has been a fire in the warehouse area for decades, and it has caused unimaginable damage, and the most important thing is that the warehouses that passed the fire actually belonged to Philipus, and conspiracy theories spread all over the streets of the free city almost the moment the sun rose the next day, whether it was the gangsters in the dark street or the nobles and merchants in the upper district, the fire in the warehouse area instantly replaced the previous slave riot and became everyone's after-dinner chatter.

When the news reached Sir Philippus's ears, the triumvirate of the Free City was strangely calm, and only gave an order to strengthen the guard of his mansion and quickly find out the situation.

As for why such an order was issued, it is actually very simple, as a slave trader, Philip does not know how many people's blood has on his hands, and the people on the entire continent who want to take his life are estimated to be able to form a legion, and the several warehouses that caught fire this time are precisely the property of Philipes, if it is an accident, it doesn't make sense. There has not been a fire in the warehouse area for decades, how could it be that this time it was all Philips's industry, and it was obvious that this was a targeted sabotage.

The other party can infiltrate the free city and set fire to the heavily guarded warehouse area, so will the other party directly find his head next time, Philip has to consider his own life safety! At the same time, the intelligence network belonging to Phillips is also operating in an instant, and this kind of behavior that challenges his majesty must be suppressed immediately, otherwise his face will be knocked there!

Just as spies and spies began to populate the entire Free City. The investigation report of the fire house area is also gradually coming out.

First of all, the investigators found some suspicious residues in the burned warehouse, and after analysis, it was determined that there were magic crystals in them, and they were magic crystals infused with fire power, obviously this fire has been determined to be not an accident, but someone deliberately set it on fire. At the same time, an empty box was found from several valuable safes with fireproof effects, and the very precious magical materials inside were taken by the prisoners, and the city security team is tracking down according to this clue. The protective magic circle that was supposed to be activated to extinguish the fire did not play a corresponding role, and now the mage union responsible for maintaining the operation of the circle has sent personnel to investigate, and has determined whether the circle itself has a problem or has been damaged by the prisoners.

While the investigators were conducting a detailed investigation of the fire scene, the guards on duty that night had all been detained by the city security team, especially the first patrol team that discovered the fire. From the time of the fire, the time of discovery, the situation of the fire, the surrounding environment, and not a single detail was let go by the security team. After all, the person who suffered this time was one of the Big Three, and if he didn't deal with it well, it was estimated that everyone's head would be difficult to protect.

At the headquarters of the security team, the office in charge of investigating the fire in the warehouse area was filled with tension, because the fire was caused by Philipus, and the security team did not dare to slack off and immediately invited a legend in the Free City, Ragwen Lukes, an investigator who had repeatedly solved strange cases and was famous in the Free City.

Investigator Lagervin, who has a Chinese face and a mustache, is sitting in his office, looking at the record screen of the protective circle on the day of the fire over and over again, there are six roads into the warehouse area, and the picture of the six recording points has been seen dozens of times, but still has not found any clues, and the picture shows that the situation is normal. No suspicious outsiders had entered the warehouse area, and by 10 p.m. there had been no outsiders except for a few chamber of commerce staff who had picked up the goods temporarily. After the investigation, none of the staff members were suspected of committing the crime.

"Mr. Ragwen, please take a break, you've been watching for more than fourteen hours. A handmaiden walked in with a handmaiden and laid her handsome on the table.

Neither Ragwen nor the captain of the security team sitting next to him had no intention of resting, and the two of them still stared at the monitoring screen of the magic circle without blinking, until the black tea finally withdrew their gaze after the black tea was completely cold.

The captain of the security team, a middle-aged man from a mercenary background, hugged his head in pain: "Damn! Are so many protection and detection circles just decorations!!There is not a single suspicious record!!"

The maids standing on the side didn't dare to come out, the fire in the warehouse area had made the security team that had been under pressure because of the theft case recently, and the officials of all sizes in the entire security team had been canceled from vacation, and all of them were sent out to collect clues, even a few people who stayed in the headquarters were anxiously reading the data and analyzing the case.

Looking at the white-headed captain of the security team who was almost in a hurry all night, Graven still stared at the picture very indifferently. It wasn't until after the replay that Graven finally picked up the cold black tea and took a sip: "Don't look at this thing, there are no clues." ”

"Damn it~ What should I do then, Mr. Graven, the victim this time is Sir Philipes, if we can't find the perpetrator, we'll all be finished. ”

"Don't worry. Graven still looked unfazed, stroked his beard and motioned to the maid to change a cup of tea for herself: "I just said that there are no clues in the records of the protection circle, but I didn't say that there are no clues elsewhere, at least now I can roughly deduce some situations." ”

The captain of the security team seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw: "Please say ~ Mr. Graven!"

Graven unhurriedly took a sip of the freshly poured tea from the maid, and then took out a few pieces of Wen Jiàn under the anxious eyes of the captain of the security team, and the text Jiàn was the content of the recent theft case in the Free City: "This is the content of a report by a chamber of commerce a few days ago, the chamber of commerce reported a few days ago that a few magic crystals were stolen, and some magic materials were also lost, and now these stolen items have appeared at the scene of the fire." ”

The captain of the security team was startled, and hurriedly picked up the text and browsed it carefully.

Graven continued to put the other texts on the table one by one and pointed to it, "And these are the theft cases that have occurred in the Free City in recent days, and it is no coincidence that all the thieves will have lost their protective magic arrays used for security, and none of them have recorded anything suspicious. ”

"Difficult~Do you say┉┉"

"That's right!" Graven nodded: "This time, the arsonist was also undetected by the protective magic array when he entered the warehouse area, I think it was the same person whether it was the theft case or this arson case." The other party is most likely a powerful magician and has a wealth of knowledge of magic arrays!"

Seeing that the captain of the security team finally regained his calmness, and without the interference of anxiety, the captain of the security team began to think calmly.

Obviously, the methods of the theft case and the arson case can indeed be judged to be the same person, but the other party usually did not leave any useful clues at the scene, there were no eyewitnesses, and there was no picture recorded by the protective array, and it was obviously a needle in a haystack to find such a person in the huge free city.

When the captain of the security team looked at Wen Jiàn, Graven lit his pipe and took a puff: "I know what you are thinking, but although the other party did not leave any clues at the scene, the other party still left me clues when he committed the crime." ”

Standing up and walking to the map of the city hanging on the wall, Graven took a pen and drew one small X after another on the map, each small X represented the location of the stolen chamber of commerce and the shop pù noted on the text, and finally Graven circled all the small X's in a big circle. These days, as an investigator, although Graven is no longer in the security team, because of his past achievements, if there are any difficult cases, the security team will ask Graven to come forward to assist in the analysis, and the recent serial theft cases have had a great impact, and the security team naturally sent the case news to Gravin.

"Although the other party will not commit the second theft in the same place when he commits the crime, the scope of the criminal's activities so far will also be so large, especially in the eastern district, the generation of the lower and upper district junction area bazaar, several stolen chambers of commerce are very close to each other. Obviously the prisoners should be active in this area!"

The captain of the security team suddenly felt like a treasure: "It is really Mr. Graven, I will immediately send personnel to focus on searching this place, even if I turn the ground over, I will find him." ”

"Don't worry!"

Graven stopped the captain of the security team, and after looking at the map again, Graven habitually took a few puffs of cigarette before saying slowly: "Although it can be determined that it is this generation, the range of activities of the prisoner is not small, if a large-scale search is carried out now, it may startle the snake, for the time being, stabilize it to see if the prisoner will continue to act, and there is another suspicion that I haven't figured out yet┉┉"

"But~Mr. Graven, we don't have much time, where is Sir Philips!!"

"Explain the situation to Sir, I don't think Sir is one of those unreasonable people, unless we really can't find the prisoner!" said Graven, continuing to draw a mark on the map with his pen. (To be continued......)
