Age of Mysticism Chapter 210

  Chapter 210 Killing

   While Tone and Clear Sky were discussing the history of ancient civilizations, Luke was wandering around the Oulu Academy. He randomly asked someone about the recent situation of the academy, and revealed his identity without any taboo.

  It doesn't matter whether the other party is a student or a faculty member of the college.

   Soon the entire Oulu Academy knew that Chief Detective Meteor, the star figure of Raging Waves City, was coming.

  He seems to be investigating something.

   In it, Luke "runs into" Francis and asks a few questions about his whereabouts last night.

  The panic shown by Francis did not escape Luke's eyes, so he felt that Francis would definitely do something at night.

  Luke put on a night suit specially made by the Imperial Secret Service. It looks like a dark windbreaker. In an environment with poor lighting, it will automatically change the color tone to a certain extent to make people blend into the environment. At the same time, night clothes can also offset part of the detection of perception and magic power, and are very valuable alchemy items.

   Knowing that Yin was going with him, Luke took out another night suit and handed it to her, as well as a top hat made of the same material.

  Put on the hat, lower the brim of the hat, and the two leave the dormitory together and enter the wild campus.

  Because of yesterday's incident, the Academy has once again strengthened its defense at night. Abyss leopards cross patrol, and battle mages hide in the dark to monitor every move in the campus.

   But Oulu Academy is really too big, no matter how strict the defense is, there will always be omissions. Luke knew the terrain of the college well, and with the effect of night clothes, they quickly arrived outside Francis' residence.

  This is an apartment building for the faculty and staff of the college. There are four households on two floors with independent courtyards. It is about 30 meters away from other apartment buildings for faculty and staff. Francis lives alone in the east room on the second floor. Through the window, he can be seen walking back and forth in the room, looking very anxious.

  Luke Heyin stood on the branch of a nearby tree, hiding his figure through the dense branches and leaves.

  Yin took out a handful of candy from somewhere: "This is the mint candy I made."

  Luke put the sugar in his pocket, took out another sugar wrapper and put it in his mouth. The sweetness was refreshing: "It tastes great..."

   "If you like it, I'll make you some more. In the future, you can eat one whenever you want to smoke. It's good for your body."

  Luke couldn't help looking at Yin.

  She stood on a tree branch and stood tall, her hair was pulled up and stuffed in a top hat, making her neck look long and fair. The moonlight sprinkled on her body through the gaps in the leaves, revealing a suffocating beauty.

  When his eyes met Yin's eager eyes, Luke immediately withdrew his somewhat turbulent mind.

   "Okay, I'll ask you for it after eating..."

  The two of them did not speak again, and the atmosphere was a little awkward and ambiguous.

   Fortunately, Francis didn't keep the two of them waiting too long. He took out his pocket watch to check the time, then turned off the lights in the room, and then hid behind the window to observe the situation outside carefully.

   After thinking that there was no one watching him outside, he opened the window and floated out. Cast the floating technique and land on the ground, and finally walk in one direction quickly.

  Luke took out a wooden box the size of a medicine bottle, opened the lid and flew out a beetle. As Luke chanted a spell, the beetle flapped its wings and flew in the direction Francis had left.

   "This is a tracking scarab domesticated by the Secret Service. I have marked it with magic, and it will keep up with Francis. Let's not chase too closely, lest the other party detect it."

  The secret agent's pursuit made Yin feel very exciting and exciting, and Francis' sneaking out of the apartment like this showed that there was definitely something wrong with him.

   "Just now I told Miss Qingkong that you will soon find out the truth. I didn't expect that I still underestimated you. You found the criminal in only half a day. Tomorrow we can let the truth be presented to everyone."

  Luke is not as optimistic as the sound: "Let's see what Francis is going to do first. Remember, you must not disturb him without my instructions."

   "Of course, Chief Inspector." Sound saluted Luke like an imperial agent.

  Luke smiled helplessly: "Let's go, Francis won't find us at this distance."

  Luke jumped down from the tree, chanted a spell and received feedback from tracking the scarab, and followed it all the way with the sound.

  Francis obviously had no professional thieves training. Although he frequently looked back to see if anyone was following him, he found nothing. Just like that...he walked out of Oulu Academy with Luke and Yin, and entered the forest outside the academy.

   After walking for another half an hour, I came to a wooden house in the forest.

  This kind of forest cabin is a temporary camp for the rangers of the college, and most of the time it is uninhabited.

  Francis did not enter the cabin. He walked to the back of the cabin, where there was a grill, and a man in black stood beside the grill.

  Francis immediately walked over angrily when he saw the man in black: "You promised me that no one would be injured. But... more than a dozen students almost died last night."

   "What happened?" The man in black was very puzzled: "We didn't do anything?"

"Did nothing?" Seeing that the other party dared to shirk, Francis was even more furious. He wanted to yell, but he suppressed his voice and said, "Why did Marcus and the others know the ruins of the Magic Plant Museum? Is there a black eclipse?

  I dare not go deep into that ghostly place. You actually lured students into it, which is equivalent to letting them all die in it.

   You want to drive away Qingkong, there is no need to kill people!

  You will kill me! "

  The man in black waited for Francis to calm down a little before saying: "Mr. Francis, I swear that we did not do what you said.

   Killing the students of the Oulu Academy, the speaker does not have the guts.

   Is there some misunderstanding? Those students just happened to find the ruins of the Magic Plant Museum..."

  Francico's eyes were already red with anger, he stared at the man in black, trying to judge from his expression whether he was lying or not.

   But he didn't see anything.

   "I don't care, I want to quit! The money you gave me...I will return it all to you. Meteor from the Bureau of Secrets is investigating the ruins of the Magic Plant Museum. He will definitely find me and will..."

  Francis became more and more frightened as he spoke. He took out his magic wand and threw magic at random into the woods to vent his nervousness.

  In comparison, the man in black is much calmer.

"Meteor is in Oulu Academy!" Seeing that Francis' mood was very unstable, the man in black took out his magic wand and cast a calming spell on him: "Mr. Francis, what you need most now is calmness. I once treated you As I said, you can quit at any time, and we will never involve you.

but…

  According to the situation you mentioned, it is not that we let you quit, you can quit.

  Talk to me about what exactly happened, and we will solve it together. The speaker will not abandon any ally. "

  The words of magic and the man in black finally stabilized Francis.

  He told the man in black what he knew about what happened yesterday at the ruins of the Magic Plant Museum.

"Fortunately, the students were all rescued by Lennon, and the college committee suspected that it was done by Qingkong. But the arrival of the meteorite made this matter uncertain. The trap in the ruins of the Magic Plant Museum was really not arranged by you of?"

  Faced with Francis' question, the man in black replied firmly: "No...

  Lord Yomington, when he came to Raging City, learned that Clear Sky had the ambition to replace Willred as the head of the Oulu Academy, and later you confirmed that Willred had the idea of ​​passing the position of head to Clear Sky.

  Speaker Glover just doesn't want Oulu Academy to fall into the hands of the Reform Society gang, and won't take the risk of pushing Oulu Academy into the arms of opponents in advance. "

   "Who would that be?"

   "No matter who it is, he has used us." The tone of the man in black became cold: "Francis...you have been exposed. He is very likely to be nearby..."

  Francico heard the judgment of the man in black, and the hairs all over his body stood up in shock. He grabbed the magic wand and looked around. The dense forest at night was extremely quiet.

   "Who's there, come out... I, I see you!"

  Francis yelled into the darkness, trying to trick the person hiding inside. But he felt a chill behind his back, a blade protruded from his chest, and blood sprayed forward along the blood groove.

  Francis turned his head and saw the man in black standing behind him. He must have made the knife.

"why?"

   "Prevent you from being used by others. Francis, I'm sorry...you will not involve us if you are dead."

  The man in black pulled out his knife, and Francis, who lost his breath, fell to the ground.

   Then the man in black continuously cast detection spells on the surrounding dense forest, but they all fell silent without any response.

   I don't know if Francis was being followed, but my professional instinct told the man in black that someone must be hiding nearby.

   "Sir... I have to admit that you have made us stumble. If those students died in the ruins of the Magic Botanical Museum, it will definitely trigger the wrath of Oulu College, and the entire Raging City will be caught in this earthquake.

   I don't know what your real purpose is, but it seems we have a common enemy... Clear Sky.

  If you are interested in cooperation, Chairman Grover can offer you a price that you cannot refuse. "

  The mountains and forests were still quiet, and the man in black did not receive any response to his words. Holding a dagger in one hand and a magic wand in the other, he was on full alert, with Francis' body under his feet.

   After a while, a portal opens behind the man in black, and closes as he retreats in.

   After a while, Luke came out of the woods, and he came to Francis' body. He knelt down and looked at the wound, with a helpless smile on his face.

   "Francis, you are really wronged. That guy just said that Speaker Grover will not abandon any ally, then turned around and stabbed you from behind. Straight through the heart, professional!"

  yin came to Luke with a golden sword in hand. After seeing the corpse, she lowered her head and recited the Shuojin man's eulogy, and then said: "Why did you stop me just now, we can catch that person."

   "Didn't you listen to that person? Someone used Francis to set a trap at the ruins of the Magic Plant Museum, and followed Francis to come here."

  yin asked suspiciously: "Aren't we the ones following Francis?"

   "Are you sure it's just us? If we try to capture the man in black, the guy in hiding might attack us."

  After hearing Luke's words, Yin immediately pointed his sword at the dark forest.

   "Us, what do we do now?"

  Luke turned on the thunder-shrinking fire pupil and scanned the surroundings, but there was nothing abnormal in his vision.

  He also wasn't sure if there was a third party tracking Francis. After all, there are many ways to track, and it is not necessarily necessary to come in person.

"We can't separate now, and we can't leave." Luke walked to the grill, picked up a few dry woods and threw them into the furnace, and shot a ball of fire from his eyes and hit the wood, and the fire quickly burned: "We The murder scene must be protected here to prevent the guy from turning back and destroying it.

   Wait until dawn, the Oulu Battle Mage should be able to find it here. "

   "The two of us... want to stay here together until dawn?" Yin felt a little shy at the thought of spending hours alone with Meteorite at night.

   "In this case, the enemy is unknown, and we may be attacked when we separate. I can only wrong you to sleep here..."

  Luke can summon Clear Sky to protect himself at any time, but a girl like Yin who is not vigilant is a very good target for attack. Luke sat down in front of the fire, Jianglei Huotong was always activated. He felt that he was being watched.

Yin sat down next to Luke: "Don't treat me like a spoiled girl. When Pan and I were training, we often slept in the wild. At that time, we also lit a fire and sat on the fire like this. The front of the house. Feel the warmth of the fire, no matter how tired you are, just sleep and all will be gone.”

  Yin's body is very soft, and the fragrance keeps drilling into Luke's nose, and his voice is lazy.

   When Luke didn't know what to say, Yin's head rested on his shoulder.

   "I'm tired, I'll go to bed first. You keep watch first, and I will keep watch in the middle of the night."

  The vigil in the second half of the night is the hardest.

  Luke couldn't help but sigh in his heart, a good girl, but it's a pity that she is from Jin.

   Luke, who was on guard at night, added a few dry sticks to the stove, and the fire became brighter, shining on Francis' body not far away.

   A very peaceful night.

  After dawn, the battle mages in the academy noticed the smoke rising from the forest area. The tense atmosphere made the battle mages immediately send someone to check, and then they saw Luke Harmony and Francis' body.

  A Faculty Member of the Faculty Dies...

  Finally, what everyone expected, but what they didn't want to happen, still happened.

  Professor Lennon arrived at the scene soon. He first stood beside Francis' body to mourn, then walked in front of Luke, and said with an ugly face: "What happened? Why did the Francis assistant die here?

  Also... You promised Vice President Elway that I will be the main investigator of this incident. Tell me first about any discoveries you make, but apparently you didn't.

   Chief Inspector, you're embarrassing me. "

  Luke yawned, then pushed aside a mint and put it in his mouth.

   "For things like solving a case, you must find clues and follow up immediately. I didn't have the opportunity to report to you at that time. At this time, my professionalism told me that I should search Francis' apartment immediately.

   Whatever you find is yours, no need to thank me. "
