Chapter 369: Examining the corpse
Next to the Springs train station, a horse-drawn carriage is slowly parked there.
As the carriage stopped, a young man with a serious look stepped down from it, wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and black trousers, and a metallic brooch on his chest was particularly eye-catching.
"Mr. Ronald, it's time to get there."
Looking at the coachman who was talking to him, Ronald nodded slightly:
"Well, you go back first. I'll take care of things here first, and there may be people coming over after the Chamber of Commerce. ”
The coachman replied respectfully:
"Sir, I see."
As soon as the words were spoken, the coachman drove the carriage away.
Standing alone beside the train station, Ronald, who was obviously a little thinly dressed in the crowd, reached out and tugged at his collar, and then walked towards a gray building next to the station without paying attention.
Leaving the Chamber of Commerce in a hurry, Ronald even had the extra mood to go back to the second floor to change into his coat.
However, even if the temperature of the weather could not affect Ronald, he still felt a little chilly in his heart.
I was able to use the power of [Guardian Angel] to resist the invasion of invisible spells, but what about the rest of the Chamber of Commerce?
Once the spell is not applied to a single player......
Then the railway station branch in front of me, the result may be very shocking.
With this in mind, Ronald raised his eyes to look at the gray building in front of him.
With a voice that only he could hear, he chanted the incantation of the power of 'rage' to awaken the black fog of hell, and several panicked mood swings in the building were immediately sensed by him.
There is no fear of despair when death is imminent.
"Whew-"
"It doesn't look like it's as bad as it could be......"
Whispering with emotion, Ronald took the initiative to walk into the building in front of him.
The caretaker recognized Ronald's identity, so he walked straight to the third floor of the building, the office of the office.
The layout of the interior of the building is no different from that of a typical office building of this era.
They are all made of brick and wood, and you can occasionally see decorative patterns and signs on the walls.
Ronald walked straight into an office where three men sat with uneasy expressions.
After being startled by Ronald's sudden push on the door, one of them immediately had an angry color on his face, and then he opened his mouth, and this guy saw that it was Ronald.
"Uh...... Ah.......h
"Rowe, Mr. Ronald!"
"You're finally here!"
His tone quickly shifted from worry and anger to agitation, and he almost jumped out of his chair before reaching out and walking directly to Ronald.
"We, there's a very serious situation on our side."
"Malta, has he told you all the news?"
“......”
Ronald reached out and shook the other party, and then said in a reassuring tone:
"Yes, Mr. Marr told me everything."
"I'm here now to deal with the trouble this might bring."
“......”
"That's good, that's good."
Knowing that Ronald was a canon holder, the manager's expression visibly softened.
His eyes looked behind Ronald for a moment, and then he continued:
"But what about the Mal people?"
"Go to your side and inform the news, didn't he come back with him?"
“......”
Ronald was silent in response to the man's inquiry.
Then, the man's expression gradually changed from doubt to distorted, and his steps subconsciously took a few steps back.
"Marl...... Malta ......"
Ronald said regretfully:
"I'm sorry."
"He's not here anymore."
“......”
Hearing the news that Ronald said that Marr had been killed, the man's expression stiffened completely, and his body trembled slightly, as if he had been drained of his strength, and he fell to the chair behind him.
"This ...... How so? ”
"Malta is just going to report a message, how can he die? How could he die? ”
“...... I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. ”
Ronald glanced down at the other party, and then explained in a low tone:
"Right in front of me, Malta was affected by that spell and then died of organ failure."
"But the spread of that spell should have been cut off on my side as well."
“......”
Listening to Ronald's simple and cruel narration, a sad smile appeared on the corner of the man's mouth on the chair, and his sad expression seemed to have seen the end of the world.
“......”
“..................”
"Mr. Ronald, I'll leave this matter to you......"
"We've also notified the Bureau of Investigation, and someone should come over later."
Seeing that the man looked like he had completely handed over the matter to himself, Ronald turned and walked towards the door:
"I'll take care of this."
And looking at Ronald's back when he left, another person in the office spoke:
"Mr. Ronald, the bodies of the others are in the warehouse on the first floor, and the records we made are also there."
"Please!"
“......”
Ronald shrugged his shoulders in understanding, and the next second the figure disappeared in the doorway.
With the deaths of three practitioners in a row, coupled with the direct killing of their colleagues, the clerks on the Chamber of Commerce's side were obviously frightened.
For the time being, I can only rely on my own investigation.
Following the instructions of the people in the previous office, Ronald went to the first floor alone.
The frightened guard was already emotionally unstable.
Seeing the arrival of Ronald, the person in charge, he opened the door of the warehouse almost like a plague god, and then the person flashed to the side.
“......”
Ronald did not comment on the situation.
He walked through the iron-clad door, and walked simply to the door of the warehouse, where several corpses were lying on the table in the center of the pile, with a white cloth on the surface.
"Hmmm......"
Ronald wrinkled his nose.
Probably because the first person died relatively early, it is also possible that he has a very sensitive sense of smell now.
As soon as he entered the room, he immediately smelled a faint smell of decay.
Stepping over to the table without saying a word, Ronald reached out and lifted the white cloth from the corpse.
"Tsk-"
The three bodies were exactly the same as what Ronald had heard earlier.
One was miserably decapitated, the other had a visible blow to his head, and the last man had his hands in his heart and his mouth open in pain, clearly suffering from physical pain.
For the first time, Ronald extended the magic in the way he knew.
The three corpses were examined one by one, and there were obvious traces of magic in their bodies, which belonged to the normal traces left by themselves when they used the technique.
But other than that, there is no superfluous magic left.
That kind of spell that constantly kills lives is definitely the ultimate in erasing traces!
Faced with such a situation, Ronald shifted his gaze to the notepad on the side.
"In that case......"
"Let's take a look at the record first......
