Chapter 1428: Reasoning and Speculation
Saseniel smiled faintly: "I only want us to be friends, not master and servant or superior, although I wear the Dark Pheasant Suit, I don't want you to treat me as the emperor in your mouth." β
Monina's blue eyes rolled, and she immediately changed into a naughty appearance and grinned: "I don't like this either, there was no emperor in the Eagle Demon Clan before, we were all free, and I was suddenly asked to behave, and I was still uncomfortable." Feather Phoenix ...... Feather, this is the parchment map I just grabbed at your command, can you see if this is it?" Monina pulled out a parchment scroll from under the bed and handed it to Saseniel.
Saseniel took a look: "Well, judging from the map, it should be referring to a place in the Sea of Oblivion, and the mausoleum marked on it should be the ancient tomb we heard about. I've been pretending to be Sheriff Binks these days, and I've learned a little bit about it, and this map is supposed to be real. β
Monina said: "It's a pity that each demon face can only be used once, and two of the only four demon faces left in the clan have been used up, so I don't think it's cost-effective to get a sheepskin map." β
"Originally, we came here to obtain the minerals here, but we accidentally learned that Lurkaf Kopochin had clues about Dragon Zero, which led you to pretend to be me, and I secretly investigated the news of Dragon Zero," Sasenil said. If you can really find Dragon Zero for me, it won't be a loss to lose two demon faces. In fact, I found out that there were some people who were trying to manipulate it, but it also made me discover that there are more secrets in Copperchin. β
"Does Yuhuang want to continue to investigate, what do you need me to do?"
Saseniel shook his head: "I've already revealed my identity in front of them before, and tonight if I go and capture the map myself." Will definitely get them to focus on me. You're just in time to get the map, and no one has seen you, and no one knows it's mine. So in the future, you'd better not show up again, and we'll leave when the mining of minerals comes to an end. β
Monina said: "According to your orders, the matter of mining minerals has basically been decided, but I don't know how to come to the strange man who carried the coffin recently, which I just told you." He was always deliberately targeting Naviti. The tour guide zhΓ¬ went to the Huangsha Inland Sea to survey the mining area this time was delayed. β
"It's a small thing. It has nothing to do with us, but Naviti's relationship still needs to be saved, and I will find a way to solve the problem for him. Saseniel said, "I'll take you back to Naviti and continue to deal with the rest of the matter, and you can find a place to stay tomorrow." Don't let people notice. β
"Hmm. I'm going to fly far. No one will find me. β
......
In another hotel room, Alice, Jennifer, Lucas, Rourke, and Comand were in the same room, and Comand couldn't hold back his curiosity. He asked, "Alice, don't you want to hang our appetite anymore, tell us quickly, how did you know that Copperchin is the murderer?"
Alice sat on the wide mahogany chair, her long silver blue hair was pillowed under her head, she took a sip of the juice in the cup, and smiled slightly on her young face: "Actually, this thing is very simple to say, but some things distract us from our thoughts and attention, if we peel off everything and then look at it in series, we will know why." Alice said: "From the very beginning when we found Mayor Calid's body at the Huangsha crossing, I realized that there was something wrong with it. β
"What's the problem?"
Alice said, "Do you remember that when we were at the Huangsha crossing, Mr. Epsilin and I used to say why the murderer threw the body at the Huangsha crossing?"
"Of course I do. Comand said: "You said that the murderer deliberately designed to lead us to the Huangsha crossing, so that he would have a better chance to attack Copperchin." β
"That's right. Alice said: "Xisha is far away and sparsely populated, and there are not many powerful masters, let alone a sixth-order master. If the murderer can support us people to the Yellow Sand Crossing, with the ability of the remaining guards and bodyguards in the manor, the chances of the fake Nesim succeeding will be greatly improved. As a result, False Nessim's assassination attempt was unsuccessful, and Korpochin was mortally wounded but his life was spared. I have inquired and all the servants have told me that Sir SΓΉ is not very strong. But how could a sixth-order master fail to assassinate Korpochin? Although it was Cordocin's heart shield that saved his life, and the butler Ivo came in time, it was too much of a coincidence. β
"yes. β
Alice added, "And we learned from GuΓ² that the murderer must have had a way of knowing the layout of the manor and the itinerary of the mayor of Calid, and that the situation of Nissim could not have known these things, at least not in such detail. Instead, he was able to call Mayor Khalid out of the Sausage Dog Hotel and leave with him. It is obvious that Mayor Khalid trusted him, which also shows that there must be an accomplice around Fake Nissim, and this accomplice knows everything about the situation in the manor, and he also knows the situation in Xisha City in great detail. So that's another question. She paused and continued: "Later, after we returned to Xisha City, I once inquired at the city hall about anyone who might know the mayor's itinerary, but I accidentally learned another thing, that is, Mayor Khalid is actually a hidden master, he once single-handedly repelled Tiger Zhixi, which shows that his strength is extraordinary. And we know from the assassination of the fake Nesim that the fake Nesim is only a sixth-order strength at most. With the strength of the sixth order, how could he easily kill a master who could fight off the tiger lizard alone? There were only three possibilities, unless Fake Nesim was a top master, or a top killer, or he had gained the great trust of Mayor Khalid and killed him unsuspectingly. Fake Nessim is a master and a killer, but he is not good enough, so it can only be the third possibility, and the method he used to gain Khaled's trust further proves that he has the possibility of being an accomplice. β
"I thought about it, I thought about all the people who might have the great trust of Mayor Khaled, and finally Bangera and Copperchin," Alice said. Bangela was the biggest beneficiary of Khaled's death. It was suspicious, but I didn't list Korpochin as a suspect at the time. It wasn't until later that I found out that Lulkaf Kopochin was not a local, he had come from the same place as Khaled, and had come to West Sands at the same time more than 20 years ago. This led me to link Khaled's death to Korpochin and find out what was suspicious. β
She continued: "I made a hypothesis about the fact that Khalid had left a note on his body that he had left 'twenty-seven years ago', and that they had come to Sisha more than twenty years ago, and that he had mentioned the events of twenty-seven years ago. Suppose twenty-seven years Korpochin and Khalid did something unspeakable. Evacuated to the remote West Sand. For more than 20 years, he thought that his life was settled down, but suddenly found that it was not so stable, and found that the events of the year might be exposed. At this time he panicked and was afraid. After much thought. He decided to bury the whole thing that had happened. When man cannot know the truth, his first goal in burying the truth should be Khaled. Suppose at this point, the problem arises. He didn't need to go to such trouble if he wanted to kill Khaled, but why would he do it? I expanded my fake cast, and it wasn't just the two of them who did it twenty-seven years ago, and after a few of them did it, they scattered and never contacted each other in their own ways. And at this time, in order to get rid of all the people who knew the truth back then, Cordocin had to use some means. He first hired a killer to pretend that he was being avenged by the enemy, so that there were a series of murders in the manor, so that the whole city knew that someone was going to kill him, and he did so, of course, to confuse his friends in the distance. After this, he waited for Khalid to go out on an assignment and secretly ordered the killer to go to Mitikas to assassinate the mayor of Khaled. With his relationship with Khaled, of course there is a way for the fake Nissim to gain Khaled's trust. After killing Khaled, Fake Nissim returned to the Sausage Dog Hotel and hijacked the officials who were searching for the mayor's whereabouts outside, luring them to the mines and killing them. As a result, the Myticas Police Station did not receive a report from the accompanying officers, and the hoof prints left by the sand thieves we saw outside the mine were probably assassins hired by Fake Nissim. β
"That fake Nesim's assassination of Kopochin......"
He also directed and acted by himself. Alice said: "After he was threatened with many 'assassinations', in order to play a more similar act, he deliberately hired all kinds of case masters, bodyguards and guards from all over the country, which had two purposes, one was to make several other people who knew the truth think that he was really threatened with death, and the other was to hide in the shadows, and people like you and me who wanted to fight him were lured out." When all the people he hired arrived at his estate, he began to plan his next move. It was not difficult for Korpochin to know the regularity of the Dune Patrol's patrol of the Huangsha Crossing, and he asked the murderer Fake Nessim to time the body at the Huangsha Crossing, leading the people from the police station and us to the Huangsha Crossing, but deliberately left the Fake Nissim with him to assassinate him. I suspect that this fake Nessim had no idea that the person who hired him was the one he was going to assassinate, and I even suspect that Nesim did not exist at all, and that he made it up by Copochin himself. And when Cordochin was alone in his room, he probably had already arranged for the butler Ivo to deliver tea, and the killer stupidly went to his room to assassinate him. Of course, the assassination will not succeed, not only did Cordocin know that he would come, but also knew that the killer would not be able to kill him, because his strength was far above the killer, and he was absolutely sure that he would save his life. So the killer Nessim tried his best to cut Kopochin into a bloody blur, but he was also unable to kill him. And this is also the bitter ploy of Kopochin to win the trust of the distant friends he wants to get rid of. β
At this point, all four of Jennifer were secretly surprised, and Lucas said: "Although this is your hypothetical speculation, it is indeed reasonable. β
"yes, that's just my guess. So I have been paying attention to Copperchin's actions for the past two days, until Copperchin, who couldn't hold back tonight, finally made a move, which also confirmed my suspicions. β
Lucas said, "But according to what you say, there are still doubts here. β
"Yes. Alice said, "I found out that there were people who wanted to kill Kopochin, and there were more than a group of people who wanted to kill him. For a long time, there have been rumors that the Lurkaf family in Xisha City has secrets about treasures, ancient tombs, and dragon zero, and you and I have heard such rumors before coming to Xisha City, which is obviously a rumor that someone deliberately released outside. And this group of people will not be Leco and the Men in Black, but Leco was rescued from the secret room in Copperchin, and apparently they are also looking for this secret, which is the parchment map. And many of the clues I had received from the tavern had come from a lacquer maker who, though he had made clear how he had known these Kopochin secrets, still made me suspicious. Thinking about it together, I think that someone deliberately revealed to me about Copochin through his mouth, and this person should be the person who released the news outside and led us to investigate Copochin. β
"Do you know who this person is?"
Alice said: "Although I am not sure yet, I already have a target of suspicion. β
