Chapter 296 Into the Tower (6K)(1/3)
Chapter 296 Entering the Tower(6K)
The sirens kept sounding. Because the battle affected a large area and the situation was serious, the night watchman quickly sent alchemists over.
After extracting the fragmented tissue from the corpse, the alchemist conducted a series of magic verifications.
In the end, they got information that was accurate but that they couldn't believe.
"The deceased is the wife of the district mayor of Xiacheng District, District B, Ms. Luo Juya."
At the gate of the Night Watch Monument Square in Lower City District B, their district chief's wife was killed.
And it was not long after the mission was released, which made the night watchmen present unacceptable for a while.
After all, Luo Juya takes good care of them on weekdays, and is also very helpful to the warriors, civilians, and warlocks in Xiacheng District.
Such a leader was actually killed?
"Check, check for me. No matter who it is, I have to dig three feet into the ground to find him."
One of the captains of the Night Watch began to yell, and then his team members began to take action.
As regular combat troops under normal circumstances, these night watchmen actually have other tasks, but at this time, no one will stop them.
"Captain, have you informed Mr. Xiong Zemo? If not, what will we say now?"
When the captain heard his subordinate's question, he almost slapped him in the face.
Xiong Zemo...
"The district chief must notify you and organize the language."
"Organizational language? I'll go?"
"Nonsense, who will go if you don't?"
After some discussions, the night watchman who asked the question was finally sent to inform Xiong Zemo.
Other night watchmen began to explore the scene, collect information, and find as many clues as possible left by the murderer.
Soon, they had some gains.
However, the scope of the battle is too large, so their evidence chain and information chain are also very confusing and fragmented.
Until the arrival of the tall Xiong Zemo from Wei Wu.
"Lord District Chief..." The captain of the first night watchman team lowered his head in front of Xiong Zemo.
"Where is she?"
"In front, the scene has not been damaged, but Mr. District Chief, I need to continue investigating the situation here, so..."
"I know what to do. I used to be a night watchman."
Xiong Zemo's strong body, which was over 2 meters tall, was trembling slightly, and his eyes flashed as if to hide his inner sadness.
He slowly walked towards Luo Juya, his tears could no longer be stopped.
Then, a 2-meter strong man began to sob silently in the rainy night.
There is a very beautiful love story between Xiong Zemo and Luo Juya, which is something that many people in District B of Xiacheng already know.
Therefore, no night watchman would laugh at Xiong Zemo at this time.
"My lord, my condolences."
The captain of the night watchman touched Xiong Zemo's body, as if he wanted to comfort his district chief.
However, after Xiong Zemo sobbed for a while, he slowly turned his head and asked in a deep voice:
"Do you have any clues about the murderer?"
"As for the identity of the murderer, we still have no accurate judgment..."
"I'm not talking about the identity, but the traces here, the battle traces, the scope, and the energy that may have appeared."
The captain of the night watchman frowned slightly. Xiong Zemo's question sounded a bit strange.
He looked up at the other person, and when their eyes met, the captain of the night watchman was in a trance for a moment.
Then his eyes immediately averted, as if he saw something he shouldn't have seen.
"There are very obvious traces of battle here. There are two types of physical volume damage, both are claw marks, one is larger and one is smaller, and there are also traces of flame burning.
But the last place doesn’t look like it was caused by flames, it looks like..."
This person looked at the alchemists. As warriors, their judgment of energy is still not as accurate as that of warlocks.
This alchemist has completed the extraction of energy traces from the scene.
Although the continuous rain washed away many traces, the fluctuations of the previous battle were too great, so it was difficult to truly clean the scene.
"There are three types of energy traces at the scene, one of which is shadow energy. This should be the energy left by Mrs. Luo Juya, because she is a shadow warlock.
There is also an energy called flame, which should be left by a level 3 fire disaster warlock.
Finally, there is another one, which should be thunder. This energy remnant has the aura of Gu Yinduo, so it is very likely that it is a person with fruit abilities."
The alchemist spoke clearly and logically. After receiving her report, Xiong Zemo raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at her.
The girl in front of me wears glasses and has an outstanding figure. Although she looks submissive, her eyes are full of confidence.
That is a warlock's confidence in his own power.
This made Xiong Zemo couldn't help but think of his former disciple, Gu Jianuo.
Although their bodies are very different, Xiong Zemo always feels that they are very similar.
"I once had an outstanding disciple, a young and capable alchemist like you, but you seem to be younger than her.
Oh, by the way, what’s your name?”
"My name is Duo Lei." Duo Lei smiled and bowed, neither humble nor overbearing.
Xiong Zemo nodded again. The girl named Duo Lei in front of him seemed not simple.
"Thank you, Miss Dole. Your ability has saved me a lot of things. If you have any other information, please inform me and I will express my gratitude."
"No, these are all things I should do, District Chief Bear."
Duo Lei rejected Xiong Zemo's overtures. She felt that the person in front of her was a bit complicated and gave people an indescribable feeling.
Very dangerous, far more dangerous than the teachers in the temple.
When Xiong Zemo saw that Duo Lei kept a distance from him intentionally or unintentionally, he wasn't angry, and just simply looked for a taste:
"I didn't realize before that there is an outstanding alchemist like you in the lower part of the lighthouse. When did you join the Night Watch?"
"Not long ago."
"You're not a lighthouse person, are you?"
"Yes, I am from Tianrui Lifeng, but I have already obtained the residence permit for the lighthouse. Don't worry, Mr. Xiong Zemo."
Duo Lei said with a smile. At this point, she already seemed to be ending the topic.
Xiong Zemo looked at her deeply, then turned around and said to the night watchmen again:
"When your investigation and evidence collection are over, can you hand her body over to me? I will take care of it."
Although it was a pleading tone, no one could refuse him at this time.
After all, it is reasonable for a husband to ask for the body of his dead wife.
The captain of the night watchman said quickly:
"Don't worry, Mayor Xiong, I will do my best."
"Just try your best, just try your best."
Xiong Zemo looked very tired. He held on to the wall next to him. The other night watchmen quickly stepped forward to persuade him:
"Chief Xiong, please go back quickly and have a good rest. District B can live without us, but it cannot live without you."
"Okay, then I'll leave this place to you."
After Xiong Zemo left, the on-site investigation began again.
Duo Lei watched Xiong Zemo leave and pinched her shoulders:
"Gulu, what do you think of this person?"
Gugu!~
In the air, there was a cry that sounded like a dove or an owl. The cry seemed to be talking to Duo Lei.
But soon, Duo Lei frowned.
"You said...he is not human? Impossible."
During the close observation just now, Duo Lei could clearly feel the aura on Xiong Zemo's body.
Heartbeat, pulse, blood flow, breathing, and even the trembling of pores are all common to normal humans.
If such people are not considered human beings, then I am afraid that all alchemists cannot be called human beings.
