Chapter 142: Inquisition [Four Watches, Asking for Recommendations, Collections, Rewards]

Now that the commission has been accepted, the first thing to go to is naturally Erien's garrison, how can you first look at the victim's body, and find a way to find some traces left by the murderer on it, Watson's residence is not far from the garrison, this is also what he and Viola learned after they got into the taxi and asked the driver, it only took 10 minutes to see the iconic white dome and the two flags of the Supreme Government and the Flanders family appeared in Watson's field of vision.

The garrison of the higher cities does not continue to be called the garrison like the middle and lower cities or towns, and on the periphery of the building stands a stone tablet with the inscription of the Erion Inquisition, which is the new name of the higher garrison.

Don't get me wrong, it's not just to sound more majestic, it's partly because of this, but it's more of a symbol of the new power of this department in the higher cities! The Inquisition will no longer be limited to the arrest and execution of murderers, who were given the right to judge by Erion and the Supreme Government at the beginning of its establishment, and all the judges are qualified to arrest and judge any nobles in the region, except for the local ruling families!

This kind of right is completely unthinkable in the middle and low city garrisons, because most of the annual funds for the garrisons in those cities are made up by the local nobles, and most of the high-ranking positions are also the children of some nobles, so the meaning of their existence itself is more to protect their own interests.

And Erien's inquisition was built entirely by the Flender family and the high-level was entirely held by people from their family, which means that the inquisition was only guaranteed by the interests of the Flender family from the beginning of its establishment, and other nobles were not even qualified to send money to sponsor and intervene in this law enforcement department!

A large number of civilians were enabled in the inquisition, although they could not get close to the real high-level decision-making core of the inquisition, but they had more or less power in their hands, and the Flender family even deliberately selected some people who did not have a good impression of the nobility when recruiting these people, and it was no surprise that these people had power after they took the position, and they directly became the best supervisory body of the Flender family.

They stared at the nobles in Arynn, except for the Flanders, like a vicious dog staring at fat, as long as those nobles were caught in any way out of the ordinary, they would be "bitten".

Over the years, the Inquisition has become the last place for the other nobles in Erion to provoke, because if they hate other organizations or individuals, they can spend money on the Mercenary Guild and the Assassin Guild to reward them, but behind the Inquisition stands the family at the top of the city, the Flanders are the rulers of this land recognized by the supreme government, and the other nobles who live here have no possibility of resisting at all, so all they can do is restrain themselves.

Getting back to the point, Watson walked to the door of the inquisition and showed the mission voucher to the doorman, thinking that someone should have explained, and soon someone welcomed him and Viola into the inquisition, because he came this time mainly to inspect the victim's body, as long as he saw the person in charge of this mission, he needed to get some investigation rights from them, as for those high-level officials in the court, to be honest, Watson had no idea of intersecting with them.

The doorman led Watson to a corner on the second floor of the Inquisition, and Watson was wondering who would put his office in such a corner, and when the doorman respectfully pushed open the door, the person sitting inside answered his doubts.

"Maggie, it turns out that it was your special department that issued the mission, I said why the mission leader's office would be placed in such a remote place, and now that I think about it, it is indeed only your department that cannot be easily exposed. ”

Sitting in the room waiting for Watson was Maggie, who had met on the train, and next to her, of course, there was the somewhat arrogant man from before.

"So you guys took on this task, allow me to reintroduce myself, I'm Maggie, one of the captains of the Ariann Hidden Knife Division, and this is Raiko, my deputy. It's a pleasure to see you here, I have no doubts about the strength of the two of you, and I believe that we will work together smoothly. ”

"Watson, Demon Hunter, this is my assistant Viola, though I'm not very happy...... But it's better to act with someone you know than with a stranger. ”

Stretched out his hand and shook Maggie's hand, Watson still recognized the strength of this Maggie, the other party's qualities in all aspects do have the strength to become a captain, but her deputy Lecco does not look like a qualified deputy in terms of strength or response.

Could it be that Maggie used her power to raise a little white face? Watson was full of malicious suspicions, but his face naturally communicated with her quietly.

The victim's body was still stored in the morgue of the Inquisition, and under Maggie's leadership, Watson and Viola finally met the target of the trip.

Maybe it was frozen in the freezer for a long time, or maybe it was because the soul had been drained, the whole body of the corpse was grayish-white, note, it was gray-white like the color of those cement walls in the countryside, and there were not many wounds on the body, this was the result of Watson after carefully looking through the corpse, and finally found a narrow wound between the corpse's hair, which looked like a wound caused by some kind of curved blade.

"This is a common weapon used by members of the Demon Alliance, the Scythe, which they use to pierce the back of their target's head and extract their souls at a time...... The target will not die until the soul is extracted, and all that can be felt is emptiness and numbness, and the feeling of the soul being extracted from the body is more devastating than any pain. ”

Maggie walked over to the head of the corpse, held the head in her hand and pointed to the wound above.

"Understood...... I'm done, and I'd like to ask you what you did with this body? I mean some identification or something. ”

Picking up the dumpling that had been standing next to the corpse and searching for something, Watson rubbed its fur as he listened to the message from it, and before long turned to Maggie and Leko to ask.

"We only investigated the wounds of the corpse and some suspicious traces of energy on the body, as for the results, I have a copy here, but there is not much useful information, it can only be said that some negative energy residues have been detected, which are not enough to help us find the murderer. ”

Holding a form in her arms, Maggie had probably looked at it no less than ten times, but still hadn't found any information from it that could be used as a clue.

"In that case, let's go to the victim's place of work, I think her colleagues will know a lot of information. ”

There are too few clues that can be obtained from the corpse now, and the dumplings only provide Watson with some mixed breath, and if you want to get clues, you have to go to the place where the incident happened. (To be continued.) )
