On Purgatory Island, the newcomer of the space system black-robed ** master Adoris was carefully observing the teleportation circle.

"Perfect, just perfect. ”

"Yes, I see that. From the very beginning, this little guy has been working on making a magic circle that can teleport in one direction. Mr. Raschel is right when he says that these scales are for positioning. Although there is no corresponding teleportation array to act as his docking interface, the little guy uses distance, height, etc. to make a fuzzy designation of target positioning. This allows him to land in a general area. ”

"Can you determine where he landed?"

"There are some difficulties, but what I can see at the moment is that he has set the target distance at a distance of 1,200 miles, and the height is about 50 meters above the water level of this island. Adoris replied, "To the southeast, that's all." ”

Raschel, the police dog of the Legal Administration next to him, left to spread out a map, pointed to the map and said, "Look, I'm not wrong at all, he didn't leave the Reims Empire. This little guy, he's so bold. ”

With that, he took out a ruler from his body and began to measure.

He drew a long arc on the map 1,200 miles southeast from Purgatory Island, and said, "This line is where he stays." ”

Chakle said coldly: "Yes, Mr. Raschel, the problem is that this line of yours crosses the entire Reims Empire. ”

"Oh, there's no need to rush. The characteristics of solving cases have always been smooth. We don't care how difficult it is, it's about whether our opponents leave us clues. As long as there is a little clue, then a good agent can follow the thread to find more clues. Raschel said with great confidence.

This time, it was Doris's turn to be curious: "Then Mr. Detective, how do you plan to further determine the specific location of Huyglare?"

Raschel asked Odoris, "I would like to ask the Master, why did that little guy raise the height to fifty meters above the level of Purgatory Island?"

Adoris replied, "Spatial teleportation has always been incalculably risky in terms of distance. You must know that the spatial barrier is omnipresent, and without accurate positioning, it is possible for him to appear anywhere, including underground. Therefore, even space magicians like us cannot teleport themselves to places that they cannot see without spatial positioning. Not only because the magic is limited, but also because we can't determine where we are, there is no guarantee of what the consequences will be. In contrast, on the contrary, it is the mages of the earth system who take advantage of this, they all come out of the soil anyway, as long as they do not transmit themselves to the water or to places with metal, they can transmit, but they are limited by other aspects, in addition to distance and magic, there are also problems with degree, time, etc. The reason why he wanted to increase the distance was because he didn't want to send himself underground. ”

"Good. Raschel smiled slightly: "Then I still have a question, is it necessarily safe in the sky?"

"That guy has learned fighting spirit from Lancelot, and he can also do a little magic, and he can't be defeated at a height of tens of meters. Chakra replied.

Raschel shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, I didn't mean that, I already know all about him." I mean, isn't it possible for him to enter any danger zone in the air?"

Chakle and Adoris were at the same time. Adoris exclaimed, "You mean the mountains?"

"And the tall buildings. Raschel said coldly: "Although this probability is not very large, you cannot deny the existence of this possibility. ”

Adoris exclaimed, "Yes, I see what Mr. Raschel means. If Huigler didn't want to send himself into the mountains, he would have to pick a plain that was open enough to be hilly. ”

Raschel's finger drew a line on the map: "Then on this line, the emptiest plain is the Versaila group in the middle of the empire." I think we found that point. ”

Adoris exclaimed, "Mr. Raschel, you are indeed a shrewd and capable man. Huey Gler will definitely choose to teleport himself to this place, which is the safest for him. If he settles here, he doesn't have to worry about passing himself to the mountains...... There may still be dangers, but at least they have been minimized. ”

Chakra couldn't help but say, "The Versaila group is located in the middle of the empire, and from here he can travel anywhere in the empire. I think I'd like to remind you both that it's been almost a month since this happened, and I don't think he's going to stay around here waiting for us to get him. Even if he stops there, this point still represents a large expanse of land. It will still be difficult to find him. ”

The Liberty made two round trips to and from the Sea of Death, which resulted in a serious delay in the investigation.

A month is enough time for one person to travel through half an empire.

"I don't think so. Raschel laughed, "I want to remind everyone that any crime is traceable. Our opponent is indeed a clever and cunning fellow, but a cunning fugitive does not mean that he is the most difficult fugitive to deal with. On the contrary, there are many criminals who are often planted on their cunning. ”

"Mr. Raschel, I don't think you have any sense in that. ”

"That's because you don't understand. You must know that the fugitives who are really difficult to catch are those who do not know where they are going or what they want to do, and some fugitives who are aimless. As long as they're not too stupid to leave any clues, then we simply can't predict where they're headed. But the cunning and fierce opponent is the opposite. They always have a plan in their heads, they always have a purpose, and they never do meaningless things. They will always set a goal for themselves, and then work towards that goal. In this way, their whereabouts can be traced. ”

At this point, Raschel said meaningfully: "Obviously, our little guy's opponent is such a fugitive. He's smart and cunning, but he's not a professional fugitive, and I'm a professional. I'm sure he must have had a plan for what he was going to do before he left the island. As long as we can know what he wants, we can know his destination, then we will easily catch him. ”

Chakra was a little skeptical, "Do you think you can know where he wants to go?"

"Thank you for the information you provided. Raschel replied, "While waiting for the arrival of Master Adoris, I have been studying the situation of the person of Huygliel. There are many interesting things about this man in me, such as the good relationship between him and the little princess...... There are some that I don't want to say at the moment, but I want to say ...... If I remember correctly, he's from Southville?"

He stared at Chakra, "You bought him from there, right?"

Chakle nodded quickly: "Yes, that's right." I bought him from Southwil, Nozz. ”

Raschel sent the map to Chakle: "Why don't you see where Will Town is?"

Don't look at it, Chakra knows it. The town of Southwell is on the line that Raschel had drawn earlier, and is in the Noz group, a neighboring province of the Versaila group.

He sighed softly, "Mr. Raschel, do you think he will go back to his home?"

This time, he used your name.

"Yes, and he will definitely go. Of course I'm not sure when he'll go or how long he'll stay there, but I'm sure he'll go. For him, it was the place where he was born and raised, and there were too many memories. When a person has experienced so much pain, he always wants to go home and see it. ”

"I know what to do. Chakle said coldly: "Mr. Raschel, you have helped us a lot in this case, and I am very grateful for your help. However, I guess at this time, Winrington should have sent a capable agent from the Department of Justice to deal with it. I don't think you need to ask about the rest of the matter. ”

Raschel sneered, "Are you going to abandon me?"

"No, I just don't need you anymore. If it weren't for the urgency, we wouldn't have come to you. Remember, it's the Empire's top secret, and it's enough to keep your mouth shut, Mr. Raschel. ”

Chakra turned to leave.

Erdoris was a little puzzled by Chakle's back, and couldn't figure out why Chakle didn't want such a useful agent, so he had to ask for help from the Winrington Law Administration. It was Raschel, on the other hand, who smiled even more proudly.

He walked to Bailey, who was not far away, "Lord Bailey, can I talk to you alone?"

In the once bustling castle, there is no one else except for the crew of the Liberty and some samurai who escort the ship.

Walking on the ruins, Raschel saw that there was no one nearby, and beckoned Bailey to sit down.

"Lord Bailey, I don't think you know me very well. So I felt it was necessary for me to reintroduce myself before we talked. Raschel politely said to Bailey: "Speaking of which, I am just an ordinary agent, and I am only a sheriff in Shenzhen and Hong Kong. I have no ambition, no interest in becoming a nobleman, and I lack the proper upbringing of a nobleman, so I often speak straightforwardly and easily offend people. In addition, I don't have the talent to become a magician, and I'm not even diligent, so I haven't broken through to the third-level samurai until now. It can be said that I am very useless. ”

Bailey looked at him coldly and didn't say a word.

Raschel smiled, "But I have at least one strength, which is to read words and looks. A lot of the time, I can tell how a person is feeling by how they look, how they speak, and how they move......"

Bailey's face changed slightly.

Raschel continued: "I became a hound because of my ability and I love my job. There's nothing more rewarding for me than catching those cunning criminals. ”

At this point, Raschel sighed: "It's a pity, it looks like I finally ran into a criminal who may be the most cunning criminal in the history of the Reims Empire, but I didn't have the opportunity to catch him myself, I think it will be my lifelong regret." ”

"I also regret that. Bailey finally spoke: "But there is no way to do it. ”

"I don't think so. Raschel said suddenly, "I've noticed that you and your companion and Master Chaklee have behaved a little erratically during this time. ”

Bailey was shocked.

Raschel continued: "I've been wondering about things since I came to the island. Why did Lord Chakle and you samurai begin to behave very abnormally after discovering that Huy Glair was the murderer? I sense a fear in your hearts...... What are you afraid of? I'm surprised. I even found that a dignified earth warrior would not be in the slightest interest in the pursuit of a fugitive from such a grave case on Purgatory Island, but on the contrary, he had repeatedly stated the difficulty of apprehending the prisoner, trying to discourage the idea of a nationwide wanted arrest of Siegler. ”

Bailey couldn't help but take a few steps back, and Raschel followed closely, staring at Bailey and saying, "Lord Bailey, can you tell me why?"

Bailey forced himself to compose, "I don't know what you're talking about, Mr. Raschel. ”

"Oh, yes? So how do you explain an interesting piece of information I found on this mutilated record......" Raschel showed a book of records that had been burned to pieces, "and the record on it shows that he has been present at every delivery for nearly four years, from the third month after his arrival on the island. Formerly a servant, then a chief servant, then an apprentice, an assistant. It stands to reason that with the continuous improvement of his status and status, there is no need for him to personally go out every time he makes deliveries, but he never stops. This was true even at the most critical time of his research work. Oh, by the way, I also asked some of the sailors on the Liberty, and they told me that every time Siegler came on board to make a delivery, you always had to invite him to your cabin for a drink......"

Raschel's speech was swift and urgent, like a gunshot fire, and Bailey was covered in wounds.

Bailey roared, "What does that mean?"

Raschel laughed, "yes, what does that mean? I'm thinking about that...... But one day, when I walked on this ruin, regretting the heavy losses here, I suddenly realized that everything that came out of the alchemy island was a good thing of great value......

Bailey's body trembled.

Raschel grinned, "Considering your strange reactions, and considering that there is absolutely no reason for someone like Huygliel to do something that is not good for him, an answer came to my head involuntarily...... Oh my God, this answer was so horrible that it scared me out of the way at the time, I thought I was crazy, how could I have thought of such a possibility, but admittedly, this answer is very close to the truth. Then I realized that it was because of this possibility that Huigler could be like a fish in water on this island, and that he could secretly do things that no one else could think of. Because he has a special access to resources......"

Bailey took a long breath and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Raschel, I once heard that the people of the Legal Administration always regarded everyone as a criminal, and at that time I thought it was just nonsense, but now it seems to be true. Do you know what you mean by that now?"

"Oh, no, no, Lord Bailey, don't get me wrong. I have never wronged any good person. So the last time we went back to invite Master Adoris, I asked a friend from the Judiciary and Political Affairs to help me investigate and learn some information. In fact, this information is not very rare, just to look up the recent life of Lord Bailey, you and your friends, and Lord Chaclair. ”

"You dare to investigate me!" Bailey was so angry that he wanted to kill the bastard in front of him.

Raschel's eyes had turned cold: "The Department of Justice has the right to investigate anyone under suspicion, and we have the right to suspect anyone. Although I do not know the details of your living situation, Lord Bailey, I have here a survey of your living conditions in Shenzhen and Hong Kong. Investigation shows: Lord Bailey, your life is much more luxurious than that of ordinary nobles. But I couldn't find any other source of income other than the one I was currently earning. And your family, too, is a bottomless pit of spending money, and it will also not bring you any benefits. I think when we return to Shenzhen and Hong Kong, we may be able to further confirm this with a more specific investigation report. ”

Bailey's face was as pale as dirt at this point: "No, Raschel, I didn't collude with Huigler. ”

"I know, and I believe that. Raschel nodded: "Otherwise you wouldn't be afraid, you wouldn't be shocked, and you wouldn't be worried about anything." But that doesn't mean you're sinless, and it doesn't mean that you're not indirectly helping Huyglaire to accomplish his plan. Can you tell me what you gave him in return?"

"Some...... He specifies what is needed. Bailey's teeth chattered and he replied with a shudder.

"Which ones?"

Bailey replied in a trembling voice, and Raschel nodded as he listened: "Very good, no wonder he can easily deceive Lancelot, he has already figured out the details of everyone on this island." You also gave him the Soul Book, and even helped him kill the new apprentice so that he could stay in that position...... Oh my God, how dare you do it, you give him whatever he wants, he commands you like a pack of dogs! greed...... You are the greatest original sin. Raschel shook his head and sighed.

Bailey's face was fierce.

Raschel smiled at Bailey, "I guess you'd love to kill me." ”

Bailey froze.

"But alas, I left some information there the last time I returned to Shenzhen, and if I die, my current guess will appear in front of His Majesty's bookcase within a few days. I mean...... Whatever the reason, as long as I die, this situation is bound to happen. ”

Bailey said helplessly, "Mr. Raschel, what do you want? I can give you all my money." ”

"No, Lord Bailey, that's your money, not mine, and I'm not interested in money, I'm only interested in this fugitive. I'm going to get him, I'm going to get him, I'm going to get him, but it doesn't seem like Lord Chakle wants me to get involved, I guess he wants Hueyglare to disappear from the world. But alas, I'm going to let him down. I need you to tell Chakle that he must immediately report it to the General Administration of Law, and in his capacity as a warrior of the earth, ask me, the sheriff of Shenzhen and Hong Kong, Raschel, to personally take charge of the arrest of Siglaire. ”

"That's all?"

Raschel laughed, "I know what you're worried about. So I suggest we work together. I'm a guy who is used to using my brains, but my force is terrible, so I need some right-hand men. As far as I know, that Huy Glare is not simple, he has been taught by the big names like Lancelot, Pagett and Cross, and on the surface he is a junior samurai, but I doubt that he is hiding his strength, which is not surprising, right? besides, he is an alchemist. Although he used his mind to create the Purgatory Island case, I believe that if he wants to force it, he must have quite good strength, but people like him will not easily show their strength. But I don't underestimate him, and people who can do such great things shouldn't be underestimated, so if I find him, someone needs to deal with him. ”

He looked at Bailey: "I'm responsible for catching him and getting that space item, and you're responsible for killing him and protecting your secrets." We all know that the Empire wants to live for the person of Huegliel. So there's no one to help you but me. ”

Bailey breathed a sigh of relief: "Raschel, you know, you scared me to death just now." If you had said that, I'm sure neither Lord Chakra nor I would have disagreed. Someone has to do it anyway, and it's best to have someone of your own. ”

Raschel sneered, "I have one more condition, which is that you must absolutely obey my commands. ”

"This ......"

In terms of status and status, even Bailey is much higher than Raschel, let alone the eighth-level earth warrior Chakra.

It was difficult for them to obey Raschel's orders.

But the next moment, Bailey still nodded and said, "Okay, I'll convince Lord Chakle, I'm sure it's not difficult." Starting today, you'll be tasked with coordinating the nationwide capture of Huigler. ”

"That's exactly what I wanted. Raschel smirked.
