Today, Halma has shown the sun for the first time in a long time, as if to announce that the cold winter that has lasted for months is about to be far away, and the season of recovery is coming.

Andu took the information in his hand and found a café alone, this case will be tried for the first time on Wednesday, and he still has two days to study the case well.

He ordered a casual cup of Syabohea espresso and began to read the report on the case, frowning every time a new victim's name appeared.

This is a strange murderer, the victims range from eight-year-old children to hard labor on the docks, and most importantly, the murderer seems to be just trying to kill people, because Andu has not found any motive or common ground.

Except for the deceased's belongings will be looted, the location and target of the murderer are all unpredictable, and when he was arrested by the police, he was already in a near-death state, hiding in an abandoned warehouse.

According to the report, the murderer, Edward, had not eaten for two days when he was found, and even so, the police still paid the price of two serious injuries before they reluctantly arrested him.

Such a murderous, cold-blooded, and inhuman guy is an out-and-out ordinary person, whether it is the church or the summoners association, after conducting an inspection, the judgment given is the same, he has not awakened spirituality, and there is no existence of the card ring.

An ordinary person, in a small city, killed nineteen innocent citizens in a row, escaped for more than half a year before being arrested in a thrilling way, such a case should not be handled by him as a newcomer anyway.

Moreover, the current trend of the case is that the murderer is not guilty? If he is unable to give a reasonable trial with the judge, he has 10,000 reasons to believe that the dear bishop will definitely talk to him about his ideals in life.

"It's really powerful, Lord Bishop, such a case can be found......" Andu pressed his forehead, his heart was irritated, and the coffee on the table became unfragrant.

"Anyway, let's go to the Inquisition first. Andu thought about it, packed up the materials, and prepared to go to the trial court first.

Who allowed Edward to be kept in the insulator's cell after his arrest?

......

Southern District, suburbs.

The scenery in the suburbs became much more lively with the sunny weather, and the flowers and plants that struggled to grow were scattered on both sides of the road, so that the two girls in the carriage saw it, and laughed and played.

"By the way, what about Andu?" Yaniksia pretended to mention it unintentionally, and her eyes deliberately swept out the window, as if this would help her better hide her inner thoughts.

Elizabeth said casually: "He went to church, today is Monday, and he seems to be going to take on a new case." ”

Yanichya suddenly said, "Is it a case like Darcy's?"

Elizabeth shook her head: "I don't know, but it should be about the same!"

Yaniksia exclaimed: "You don't know how popular the case your brother is now, I heard that many young ladies are inquiring about him!"

Elizabeth was delighted to hear such a statement for the first time.

"Really? I haven't heard anyone say it! But it's a good thing, if it really solves his marriage problems, it really makes me worry!"

Yanikcia echoed and laughed, "yes, I don't know if he has a crush on a young lady?"

"Impossible!" Elizabeth immediately rushed to say: "That guy has been mysterious lately, and he doesn't know what he's doing, and he doesn't mean to fall in love at all, if he wasn't like this, how could I be so anxious about him?"

Yanichya felt relieved for a while, but on the surface it didn't matter,

"He's still young, and he'll definitely have something to achieve in Halma in the future!"

Elizabeth smiled: "He doesn't want to stay in Halma, he told me a long time ago that after this year's big exam, he will go to the provincial capital to study and see the outside world." ”

Yanichya's right hand suddenly tightened when he pressed the curtain, looked at Elizabeth and smiled,

"Then I congratulate him in advance on his ability to achieve a good graduation in the provincial capital!"

"Thank you, but I've heard that it's going to be at least three years away, so I'm reluctant to think about it......," Elizabeth sighed.

The two maidens went one after the other, and fell into silence until there was a noise outside the carriage.

"What's wrong?" Elizabeth asked, frowning, looking at the stopped carriage.

"It's okay, a caravan has run into us, and the road is too narrow for one team to pass first. Robert explained.

Elizabeth couldn't help but look at the carriages on the other road, and with him was Robert, the thief.

The merchant's carriages were piled up with a large amount of things covered by canvas, and Robert could tell from the depth of the wheels that the contents were so heavy that the horses pulling the carts were exhausted at this time.

Robert only glanced at it a few times before retracting his gaze and said to the two girls, "Let's get in the car first, we'll go when they leave." ”

Elizabeth glanced at him, and without saying much, she was about to get into the car, but her eyes caught a black shadow leaping quickly.

The girl who was a little surprised in her heart didn't say anything, there were not many similar wild animals in the suburbs, and she didn't see it too clearly, so she didn't care about it anymore after thinking about it after getting into the car.

And Robert behind her naturally noticed the black shadow, and when the two of them got into the car, they went around to the other side of the car, and the black shadow had already climbed the tree at this time, and was looking at the carriage and Robert not far away with an indifferent face.

When Robert saw the creatures in the trees, he was stunned for a moment, and then showed a strange expression.

"How can a monkey be so ugly?" thought the thief in disgust, and was about to turn his head and walk away, when a somewhat familiar voice sounded not far away.

"Mr. Robert!" Peder looked at the thief with a happy face, and walked over quickly,

"Sir, it's really you, why are you in the suburbs?"

Robert looked at the young man in front of him, thought for a long time before finally remembering the other party, and said with a smile: "What about you? What are you busy with after the Darcy incident?"

Peder smiled and said, "I didn't do anything, I just rejoined a stone factory, and I am currently doing the work of an accountant, and I am here to accompany the delivery of goods today." ”

As he spoke, Peder also pointed to the caravan in the distance: "Thank you very much for you and Mr. Andu, otherwise that bastard of Darcy doesn't know how long he will be arrogant, but fortunately he is dead!"

Neither the young Pedder nor Robert noticed that when Peder said this, the strange monkey in the tree also pricked up his ears and showed a very human expression.

It was a look of sarcasm and greed, its two thick eyebrows raised high, frivolous and disdainful, and the red pupils of its eyes seemed to have a flame growing stronger.

It even licked its somewhat parched lips gently, and its face was cloudy and ghostly through the shade of the trees.

Under the tree, Robert chuckled, "Yes, but thanks to your testimony in court at the time, otherwise this result would not have happened." ”

Pedder said happily: "I also thought that I might only have this one chance in my life, so I was a little excited at the time. ”

The thief patted him on the shoulder and encouraged: "Men must have the courage to face everything at any time, and I believe that after Darcy's case, you will get better and better!"

Peder lowered his head a little embarrassed and laughed, the boy under the sun was completely devoid of his previous pungence and tyranny, just like the big boy next door.

......

"Excuse me, in which room is Edward locked up?" Andu asked politely to the doorman.

"May I ask who you are?" said the doorman, who was wearing a helmet and couldn't see his face clearly.

"I'm Andu, the judge in charge of Howard's case, and here's the paperwork, you can check it. Andu took out the document in his hand, chose one with the logo of the church, and handed it to the doorman.

"Hello, Mr. Andu!" After the doorman confirmed the document, his attitude changed for a while, and he said enthusiastically: "He is in room 2-7 inside, but adults better be careful, that person is very dangerous!"

Andu smiled and packed up the papers: "Thank you, you have also worked hard." ”

"It's not hard, it's all supposed to be done!" the doorman's voice was very high, and although Andu couldn't see his expression clearly through the helmet, he could also feel the excited face under the mask.

After making a priestly salutation to the conscientious doorman, Andu stepped alone into one of the most special areas of the courtroom, the prison cell.

This is the place where the Inquisition Court is used to detain temporary prisoners, and it is also the most vicious and dark place in all of Halma.

The hard whole body is made of marble and the walls built by professional rune array masters, with a large number of inscription rune seals, making this Halma's strongest cage a desperate place for all criminals, in Andu's opinion, without the strength of the Five Rings, it is impossible to break through the cumbersome rune defense circle.

It is for this reason that many people who are considered too dangerous by the police are held here instead of in a police cell before they are tried.

"Tick, tick!"

A drop of water exploded from time to time on the damp ground, and in the prison room, where no sunlight was seen all year round, the cold air made Andu uncomfortable.

"If this person with a bad joint is here, it will take less than half a day to estimate that he will want to die!"

An Du muttered in his heart, using the low-level magic circle effect of the priest's robe on his body, barely resisting the cold brought by the prison cell, if he changed to ordinary clothes, it is estimated that he would be able to squeeze out the water in his clothes for a while!

It took two minutes for Andu to finally reach the innermost area of the prison cell, and under the dim light, a line of words was quietly carved above the door in front of him.

"Numbers 2-7!"
