After leaving the park, Halls returned to the detention center again.
"Hey, sir, didn't you say you wanted to go back to rest? Why are you back again?" the interrogator in the detention center wondered.
"I'm here to urge you to continue interrogating the criminals. Every one of these people must be interrogated."
The interrogator said: "Don't worry, sir, our people will interrogate them 24 hours a day and use sleepless interrogation methods on them. As long as three to five days pass, they will say anything."
"Very good." Halls looked at the prisoner on the chair expressionlessly, and then at the two officials from the Ministry of Justice.
After about ten minutes of interrogation, outside the interrogation room, a police officer from the police station came from the police station.
"What's the matter?" Halls saw that he was in a hurry, so something must have happened.
The Sheriff said: "Sir, over in Beicheng, several officials who came to the royal capital from other provinces were killed."
Halls' brows jumped and he immediately asked: "What's going on?"
The Sheriff said: "More than forty minutes ago, two civilians discovered the bodies of these officials in a small alley in Beicheng District. They died in a very miserable state, as if they had been dismembered with a machete."
"Are there any witnesses?"
The sheriff shook his head: "Because it happened around two o'clock in the morning, no witnesses have been found yet, but nearby residents said they heard the sound of fighting, but it lasted only a short time."
The killing of an official is a big deal, Halls said: "Assemble people to conduct a detailed investigation. Every nearby resident must be questioned to find useful clues. In addition, these people are officials from other provinces, and the place where they live is likely to be a reception area."
It’s a foreign official’s hotel, so I also want to check a few hotels in Beicheng, there may be some valuable information.”
"I understand, sir, why don't you go with us?" the Sheriff asked.
Halls thought for a moment and said, "I'll go there soon."
"Yes." As soon as the security officer left, another security officer hurried over two minutes later.
"What else happened?"
The security officer said: "Sir, after receiving a report from the west city branch, two night patrols discovered the body of Mr. Raymond near Xiaoshan Apartment."
"What!" Halls was shocked: "Raymond?"
"yes."
Rails said: "How is this possible? He just left the public security headquarters about an hour ago. How could he be dead? Is there a mistake?"
The security officer said: "I confirmed with the branch chief. He said that Mr. Raymond had participated in the manhunt in the western suburbs in the evening. He had met him, so there is absolutely no mistake."
Halls still didn't quite believe it: "With Raymond's ability, who can easily kill him? No, I have to go and see for myself. You go with me."
Half an hour later, numerous security guards and various spar-illuminated lights in Xiaoshan Apartment had woken up the nearby residents. Halls squatted next to the body and lifted up the white sheet covering the body.
It was confirmed with his own eyes that the deceased was Raymond who passed away not long ago.
Halls turned his head and couldn't bear to look at Raymond's death. He waved his hand and asked his men to cover the dead man again.
The chief of security of the branch reported to Halls: "According to the preliminary investigation at the scene, the deceased died in a fierce battle with more than one murderer. Judging from the situation at the scene, there were only signs of fighting near the body. The surrounding residents
I did not hear or see any fighting. Judging from these signs and the strength of the deceased, it is very likely that the deceased was isolated by a magic barrier during the fight."
Halls nodded. Although such a situation is not common in the royal capital, it is not uncommon either.
The head of the branch added: "Based on what you said before, we suspect that it is most likely Smith Merlin, the criminal you attempted to arrest. She is likely to follow you when you return to the capital until the deceased is alone.
She just took action. As for how she sneaked back to the royal capital, it is still unclear. Of course, this is only a preliminary determination, and the actual situation requires in-depth investigation."
Halls said: "No doubt, it must be her. Raymond has been in the provinces before and rarely came to the royal capital. This time he arrived in the royal capital not long ago, except... except for Zalberg and this person
, I’m afraid no one will want to kill him.”
"this……"
Halls added: "Raymond's guardian monster is the Holy Golden War Lion, and the old woman has the Demon of Ze, Nusimir. When these two monsters fight, it will be difficult to isolate them with ordinary magic.
The most likely thing is the space magic barrier. But Raymond and I just fought against the criminal not long ago. From my observation, although the criminal has many puppets stored in different spaces, most of them are treasures on her body, and she herself does not
She is not very good at space magic. But to set up a strong and effective space barrier, it is difficult for an unprofessional space magician to do it. Obviously she has helpers beside her to help."
The chief of the branch said: "Then how do you think the investigation should be carried out?"
Halls recalled the scene before the battle with Mei Lin in the western suburbs, and said: "Perhaps her coming to the city was not as simple as murder and revenge."
"oh?"
Halls said: "Before I fought with her in the western suburbs, she was heading towards the royal capital. If this is the case, then she is most likely still stranded in the royal capital now."
The chief of the branch said: "I will immediately send someone to notify the city defense garrison to strictly control the entry and exit of each city gate."
"Well, let our security officers and garrison patrols conduct a careful investigation in the capital. Damn you bitch, I must not let her escape this time!"
…
Before he knew it, it was dawn. At the Prime Minister's residence on Prince Shengguang Road, Zalberg, who had gotten up early, was eating breakfast while listening to the report from the butler Ganner.
Ganner said: "In addition to the above things, several very important things happened last night. The first is that several officials from Sizela Province who maliciously slandered the prince were murdered by unknown murderers last night. Currently, the Public Security Bureau has
Send someone to investigate."
Zalberg smiled: "Oh, this Celeste Bingzhixie is quite efficient in doing things. The things I just asked him to do yesterday were completed so quickly."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "The other thing is not good news."
"explain."
Ganner said: "Raymond is dead. He was killed near Xiaoshan Apartment in the middle of the night last night."
"What!? Raymond is dead!"
Gan Na said: "The news from the security department definitely suspects that the murderer is the leader Mei Lin."
Zalberg suddenly said angrily: "What the hell is Smith Merlin doing! Isn't she...isn't she outside the city? How come she's back?"
Ganner said: "It is said that in the early hours of yesterday, Halls and Raymond had a fight with Meilin Zuosheng in the western suburbs, but in the end they were still escaped by Zuosheng. Then Meilin Zuosheng followed him into the city and took advantage of the thunder.
Kill Mond when he is alone."
Zalberg said angrily: "This Smith Merlin can't help at all, it will only cause trouble. I finally sent An Wuhou away. Now that Raymond is dead, Yanlong's character will definitely happen again."
Return to the royal capital."
Ganner said: "Prince, things have happened, and there is no use getting angry. It is better to find a way to deal with this matter."
Zarberg asked: "Has Lord Anwu left the city now?"
"I left yesterday afternoon, with the Hohenheim family."
"I hope he won't come back, but this is unlikely. The news of Raymond's death will definitely reach his ears. If it is really Smith Merlin who killed him, this matter will not be hidden for long."
Ganner said: "In order to protect himself, Merlin will definitely drag you into the water, and the King of Heaven will not leave Pisces alone if he knows about this."
Zarberg said bitterly: "When things come to a close, it seems that I will inevitably have a conflict with Lord Anwu. Although I am not afraid of him, I don't want to get into such a big trouble."
Butler Gunner said: "Since the matter is unavoidable, should we use Hohenheim to contain him?"
Zarberg thought for a while, shook his head and said: "This is not a good idea. Do you think Anwuhou will be a threatened person after he has been in the army for so many years? Doing so will anger him, and Hohenheim itself
He is also a very powerful person. Since he is leaving, don't make him an enemy. We will talk about this later. There are other things to do today. When Benota and Trossa arrive,
Let’s discuss it later.”
On the other side, the Waller's house in Feilong District 3.
Bing Zhixie drank the ice-like milk and said, "Although Raymond's surprise surprised me, it is a good thing for us."
Linda said: "I know that if this happens, Lord Anwu will not be able to leave the royal capital easily. He must at least investigate Raymond's death."
Bingzhixie said: "There will be no one else who will kill Raymond except the skinned old woman. Anwu Marquis Yanlong will definitely have a head-on conflict with Zarberg because of this."
Linda smiled and said: "Ah, it seems that the development of things is still in your plan. Isn't this the result that you tried every means to design Raymond to get involved in this matter?"
Bingzhixie said: "But Zalbog is not so easy to deal with. I'm afraid one Anwuhou is not enough."
"Do you have any idea?"
"Not yet." Bing Zhixie said: "I will visit his official residence later. The tasks he assigned yesterday have been completed. Let's see what kind of requests he has next."
Linda said: "But are you just going to let him get whatever he wants?"
"Oh, I'm very stingy and I never want to do free charity."
