Kevin had long said that orc students were a hidden danger in school. Not to mention anything else, the burly size of the orc student alone has a huge visual impact in itself. For an ordinary person, in front of them, I can't help but wonder if such a thick arm can kill me in one fell swoop, not to mention their culture shock and their irascible personality.

If someone wants to create some chaos, this is undoubtedly the perfect opportunity. From the bard Pennet's remarks, it can be seen that these plans have been laid out and built up in advance. This is an organized and disciplined gang that is likely to have serious consequences if the time arises.

Now that these bards and thugs have been suddenly killed, and only Pennet has escaped, what does this mean? It is the other party's plan that is going on normally, and that he is going to "sacrifice" some of his own people. Or is it that the other party has infighting and cannibalism? is it more likely that the other party is aware of Kevin's identity and is worried that the matter will be exposed and he will act in advance and get rid of the insider?

In any case, when the other party needs to use the means of killing, it means that the matter is very serious. But Kevin also didn't understand how much of a use it would be if they tangled up a bunch of tavern drinkers and dragged them all to the school gate to protest?

Drinkers don't necessarily have a high sense of "justice", and they usually scold and scold in the tavern. If you really want to have a hot brain, rush to the school gate to do something, most people don't have the courage, let alone have nothing to do with their own interests. The leading party itself needs a high degree of demagoguery, or financial resources, to impress them.

And even if they are called, they are only rushing to the number of people at most. In terms of shouting, it really wants to provoke the school, and after a ban on words, everyone obediently shut up. In terms of force, even if the strongest Saint-level master in the empire personally came to lead the rhythm, in front of the principal with full authority, he would be completely abused. Within the scope of one's own authority, in the same situation, it is impossible for anyone to be the opponent of the authority dog.

And the harm caused by the protests is only limited to the social impact, which may be a little bad for the reputation of the school. The final solution is nothing more than clarifying the truth of the matter, finding out the real culprit of the murder, and sentencing it according to law. Then send a few bards to pacify the people. As for the minotaurs, at most add some guards, build a higher wall, and circle a little tighter, and it is unlikely that they will all be returned.

This is the worst outcome that Kevin can envision, although it brings a lot of trouble to the school and society, slowing down the progress of school research, disrupting the normal rhythm of life, ruining the reputation, etc., but nothing more. Is it worth risking exposing one's own organization, even at the cost of seven of its own lives, for such an ultimate goal?

Kevin himself is a man who has worked in the shadows, and in his experience, there is absolutely no reason to do so. Even if it is a pawn that can be sacrificed at will at the outermost level of the organization, it can't be so casual, and it's still peacetime. Unless they're planning to assassinate a school leader or steal some confidential information, no one will want to be a peripheral pawn next time they die.

With so many questions, Kevin was released from the sheriff's building. At the door, he met Sain and Little Spoon, who had been waiting for him for a long time, and the two of them were released earlier.

"How's that? they didn't embarrass you, did they?" asked Sain.

"No, it's just that I said a few more words. Kevin replied casually.

"Isn't this serious?" the little spoon had already become serious, and even revealed a little excitement in his tone. It is true that the days of calm have passed for too long.

"This matter doesn't have much to do with us, and even if it's time to do it, it won't be our turn," Kevin had to extinguish her illusions, "and the affairs of the country will be left to the sheriff, and we will pay attention to it at most." ”

"Well?" the little spoon was a little unconvinced, "Why do you think I'm a man who only uses force? ”

Kevin nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I said it wrong." ”

Sain interjected on the side: "I want the autopsy report of the deceased, I don't know if they are willing to give it." ”

"The autopsy report is of little significance," Kevin replied, "and at the moment it is certain that the deceased were all killed by fists, and the murderer's force is good, but such strength is a lot in the capital." The key is how they will act next. ”

"Do they have any next move?" Sain was a little surprised, "The sheriffs here are all alert, how can it be so easy to find something else?"

"I don't know," Kevin replied, "maybe they've infiltrated the sheriff?"

"Hey, hey, hey!" the sheriffs in the building couldn't take it anymore, "You've been infiltrated! ”

"Oh, I'm sorry. Kevin apologized again and again, and the three of them stayed away.

Walking to the far corner, Kevin directly ordered: "This way, you two go back to school first." Last night, I heard that a minotaur jumped over the wall and went out, and witnesses said it was the 13th. That is, the smartest and most practical one, you go back and find out, this is also the responsibility of the two of you temporary workers. ”

"Really?" both of them were stunned, "Okay, we'll go back right away." ”

"Well, I'll just look around and see if there are any clues," Kevin casually took out a few pieces of manuscript paper, "By the way, there are still a few drafts of mine here, you can send them when the time comes." ”

The little spoon took the manuscript paper suspiciously: "It can be, but ......"

"I've been busy lately, and I'm afraid I'll forget. Kevin replied casually.

On the side, Sain suddenly interjected: "By the way, where is your crow?"

"He was asked to spy on that group of people last night, and he's still catching up on sleep. Kevin replied.

Sain thought for a while, and still spoke: "The crow is burdened with a deep hatred, maybe I shouldn't say this, but ......"

"I know," Kevin interrupted him directly, "but the Raven is also our companion along the way, and I think he'll be able to take care of it." ”

"Since you say so, then I won't say anything. Sain nodded. After the three of them finished their discussions, they began to act separately.

Here, Sain and Little Spoon hurried back to school, had a quick lunch, and immediately found the minotaur with student number 13. However, the 13th flatly denied the escape in the middle of the night.

"I don't know what you're talking about," replied 13th, "I slept peacefully last night, and I've been sleeping. Why do you say I'm out?"

"But someone saw you out. "Little spoon interrogation.

"Who is it?" asked 13 rhetorically, "call me over and confront me." ”

The two were choked for a while, and the security guard on the side quietly replied: "We patrolled last night, and we didn't find any minotaurs going out." ”

"Are you sure? have you seen every bed?" Sain asked.

The security guard was a little embarrassed and shook his head: "That's not true, but we sampled and investigated, the bed on the 13th, we checked it at 11 o'clock, and we also checked it at 3 o'clock in the morning, and they were all there." ”

The No. 13 minotaur sneered: "Teacher, can I go?"

"Wait a minute," Little Spoon, "we have to investigate." ”

"What else are you going to investigate?" 13 was impatient, "What's the point of repeating a question dozens of times?"

Sain asked differently: "Could it be that someone else is wearing your clothes?"

"Oh, then I don't know," replied Number 13, "why don't you call all the orcs over and investigate them one by one." ”

Everyone was helpless, and they couldn't find any problems for a while, so they could only let him go back first. On the other side, Kevin went straight to Pene's residence. Kevin not only beat him, but also followed him after the beating, so the home address is known.

Knocked on the door three times, and the door was opened by a girl who looked like a woman, and it was quite beautiful. Kevin remembered that Pennet had told him that he had a wife who was said to be doing some service on the second floor of the tavern, and he was saddened. Kevin also joked that he also wanted to become a member.

I don't know if this is his wife, she looks younger, and there is no sadness on her face, as if she is fine.

"Who are you looking for?" asked the girl.

"I'm looking for Pennet. Kevin replied.

"He's not here, you can do it another day. The girl said that she was about to close the door.

Kevin hurriedly stopped: "Wait, he's not here, when will he come back?"

"How do I know. The girl wanted to close the door again, but Kevin still held on, and couldn't help but be anxious, "What do you want to do?"

"Oh, don't get me wrong. Kevin replied, then thought for a moment that might be easier to deal with the tavern servants, so Kevin pulled out the funny coin.

"You ......" The girl just glanced at it, and then reciprocated with disdain.

Kevin pulled out another stack of funny coins.

The girl fell silent.

"Forget it. Kevin put away the money and turned to leave.

"Wait," the girl hurriedly smiled, "since I'm here to find Pene, let's sit down first." ”

Kevin calmly entered the house, observed the furnishings, and found a chair to sit down. The girl got a glass of water and sat down across from Kevin.

Kevin took the cup, but didn't drink it, just took it in his hand and turned it around: "I take the liberty of asking, are you Pennet's wife?"

"Yes," the girl smiled, "did he tell you?

"He said you have a very noble profession and ...... Work hard. Kevin replied.

"Hehe," the girl sneered, "he's scolding me?"

"What's wrong, I don't know anything. Kevin pretended to be innocent.

"Forget it, let's not talk about it," the girl waved her hand, "what are you here for today?"

"There's no rush for this first, no one else is there anyway. Kevin avoided the topic, he was not familiar with it after all, so as not to reveal the purpose directly.

"Oh, why don't you just wait here for a while, and I'll go get something in the kitchen. The girl said as she walked into the kitchen.

Kevin took the opportunity to look around, and suddenly noticed that there was a pair of iron armor and glove trees on top of the cupboard. Compared to the dusty objects, the glove looks as shiny as new.
