Chapter 1 Robbery(1/2)
Xiangye City Law and Political Department.
Chaklay hurried into Rasher's office: "I found several important messages."
"explain."
"First, some people now have a black boy drinking in the tavern in front of his Lord's Mansion before his death. It is the place where the guards of the Lord's Mansion drink. People often accidentally reveal some situations in the Lord's Mansion when they are drunk. After Lord Ablit's treasure room was stolen, the black boy never came again."
"Very good, simple and convenient source channels, and I was surprised by the wisdom of this teenager. What else?"
"We got a message from Clarice that the boy had sold three bottles of potions to the shop here. We had found the shop and confirmed the news. The boy deceived everyone with a nearly perfect lie and got the funds he needed."
“It’s so unimaginable.”
"In addition, someone in the Kamel family took the initiative to report it to us. Some time ago, there was a young man who suspected that Sue Glair had been to the Kamel family and seemed to have made some big deals with them."
Raschel was surprised: "Why did the people of the Kamel family take the initiative to betray their family?"
"I don't know, maybe there are reasons for it. There has never been a lack of people with problems in this world who are dismantling their own people's feet. Are there still fewer people and things like this in history? It is easy to hide from the enemy camp, and it is hard to defend the hidden arrows behind them."
"It is true." Raschel agreed: "Adam Bader, four hundred years ago, made a frustration with his poems for slavery, but the person who betrayed him was a slave; orc warriors three hundred years ago stood up to fight against humans in order to defend the dignity of the orcs, and humans bribed his younger brother with only fifty Jinweits; when the leader of the Holy Spirit religious was crucified, he was also betrayed by his students, selling only two barrels of ale. Some people were betrayed by their alliances, even when they were betrayed by their own alliances. Although they were defending the interests of the weak, they were always stabbed by the weak behind them. The world is never short of despicable and shameless people."
"If there were such messes around me, I would definitely be the first to kill him with one knife." Chaklay said meaningfully.
Rasher looked at him and laughed at himself, "The villain can't be killed, right? Forget it, don't mention those people, tell me what deals the Kamel family and Shuiglair have made."
"I went to check the information of the Kammer family. It is a commercial family that mainly produces and sells potions, and has no prominent background. However, their potions have suddenly improved significantly recently, and they have launched a good new variety of potions. I compared the potions produced on Purgatory Island, and it has found that the new variety is very similar to some of the potions on Purgatory Island."
Raschel chuckled strangely: "I guess you must have visited that family."
"Their patriarch was very stubborn, but after I cut off one of his hands, he finally surrendered." Chaklay said as if nothing had happened.
"So what benefits did the Kamel family give that kid?"
Chaklay placed a piece of paper and a vow agreement in front of Raschel: "This is the list of goods given to the Kamel family by Shuiglair and the agreement signed between them. The Kamel family exchanged materials for three modified formulas of potions and a new formula. It is hard to imagine that he actually obtained these materials by selling potions not by selling potions in large quantities, but by selling formulas. The Kamel family was completely deceived by him. Shuiglair used the leakability of the formula to trick the other party into signing the pledge, and it was because of this vow that the Kamel family willingly kept the secret of the transaction for Shuiglair. They were completely used by him, and this kid's human ability was simply terrible."
"I didn't surprise me at all. Behind a very good-looking deal is a dangerous and deceitful... Hehe, isn't that his best?"
Chaklay's face turned red and he glared at the old hound with a fierce look.
Raschel picked up the list and asked casually: "Did they have to hand over the recipe?"
Chaklay said coldly: "The patriarch is reluctant to let it go, so I dug another eye."
Raschel didn't care about Chaklay's handling methods at all. For them, this torture was simply commonplace. In fact, he quickly devoted himself to the list that Shuiglair gave to the Kamel family.
"Did you see anything?" Chaklay asked.
Rasher nodded: "Yes. This list and this agreement tell me that the deal with the Kamel family allowed Shuiglair to obtain a large amount of materials in the safest way, so that those deadly magic circles could be made in the Lanya Theater. But this is not important. What is important is that it tells me that Shuiglair cannot truly exert the power of alchemy just by relying on the materials he owns, and he still needs to be supplemented from the outside world. Just as Purgatory Island also needs the transmission of the Freedom, Shuiglair cannot be completely self-sufficient."
Speaking of this, a hint of hope rose in Rasher's eyes: "Chaklay, do you understand what this means?"
Chaklay thought for a while and shouted, "Oh, yes, I understand. What is really powerful about Shuiglair is not his magic and martial arts, but his alchemy. But alchemy cannot get rid of the material level. His storage box may have the most rare and rare materials in the world, but that does not mean that he can make anything. It seems that you have the most important and most important ingredients for making delicious food, but you lack the necessary seasonings, and there are many materials that may not be valuable but indispensable that you still need to buy in the market. And Shuiglair's dosage is unusual."
"That's right." Rasher smiled proudly: "Look, I said, as long as our goal is in action, he will always be exposed. There is no perfect crime in this world, just to see if you can find clues."
"Then what we have to do now is..."
"Although we cannot investigate all the material markets in the country, it should be fine to investigate a few areas. Winlington has sent the information about the map of Ablitt's theft. I checked three places in the Vanisha Centre where Electra's laboratories may exist, in the Villas Mountains, the Lentland Heights and the Yinma River on the other side. We only need to focus on the material markets in Villas and the Lentland Heights, and pay attention to whether anyone has purchased large amounts of alchemy materials in the near future to know where Soiglare is."
"Why not Yinmahe?"
"Because the Villas and the Lentland Heights are in the same direction, if I were Shuiglare, I would definitely strive to go the most places in the shortest time to increase the chance of finding the Electra Laboratory. And by moving forward, you can reach the Franck Empire. Now it is no longer the advantage of time than when he just escaped, so he can complete his lurking, reconnaissance and preparation. Now we are getting closer and closer to him, Shuiglare must consider a way out for himself."
"I understand, I'll send someone to focus on the material market in that area." Chaklay said.
Before leaving Rasher's office, Chaklay suddenly said: "Rashher."
"What's up?"
"Are you sure we can catch him as long as we find him?"
Raschel paused slightly, then shook her head: "No, I'm not sure. This kid has successfully proved that he can kill people stronger than himself. As long as he is given time, he will become even more terrible. But Chaklay, that's not the issue I need to consider. I'm only responsible for finding him and how to deal with him...that's your problem."
Chaklay's face turned pale.
The carriage was galloping on the avenue, and the pastoral view outside the car window flew backwards.
Sitting in the carriage, Xiuyi carefully admired the view outside the window.
The vast fields make the view wide, and you can see the lush forest in the distance from the car, which is the famous fragrant wood forest in Xiangye City. Xiangye is a rare evergreen plant with straight branches and long treetops extending straight to the sky. Unlike the huge foggy forest on Purgatory Island, they do not block the sun, but allow the sun to sprinkle through needle-like leaves, bringing light to the earth.
There were sounds of cutting wood in the distance, and the thud sound was extremely crisp and pleasant.
After passing the Xiangmu Forest, there is a large hilly area. The sunny side of the hills is covered with bushes of short shrubs, dotted with small blue and white flowers and irregular snow.
The last snow of this winter is melting, winter is passing, and everything is greening.
After experiencing the bloody battle at Lanya Theater, Xiuyi returned to her gentle boy appearance.
He dyed his head again and then changed into ordinary civilian costumes.
Now he looks like a young man working in the city, after finally saving some money, he goes home to visit his relatives.
The public carriages in the Versa group can take a total of eighteen people, with only one extended carriage. Benches made of pine wood spread along the edge of the carriage, leaving a wide aisle in the middle.
Fortunately, the person who pulled the cart was not an ordinary horse, but a wildebeest known for its strength and endurance. This creature can carry enough weight.
There were only twelve people in this public carriage. There were few people traveling in winter, so Xiu Yi was able to avoid the trouble of huddling with a large group of people.
Next to Xiuyi was a couple, holding a child in his hand. Opposite him were two men who looked like samurai, with long swords on their waists. Between the two warriors was a middle-aged man dressed by three merchants. It seemed that the warrior was a bodyguard hired by merchants. In the place closer to the coachman, he was a small clerk. Like Xiuyi, he was also a single-handed road. Near the car door, there were two big men with thick waists and round arms, but they couldn't tell where they came from. They looked like miners.
In the entire carriage, except for the child she was holding, Xiu Yi was the youngest.
Perhaps it was because the carriage had been rushing for a long time, and most people were a little drowsy at the moment. Only Xiu Yi and the lady holding the child were in high spirits because the child was always making noises.
The little guy is probably over one year old. Maybe he doesn't like the weather, or maybe he is not used to the bumps, and he cries loudly every time he makes his mother have to coax the little guy again and again, but the father is content.
"Oh my god, he's peed again, Joegi, help me quickly, I'm going to change him a diaper," the lady complained.
Being a husband is a little dissatisfied: "This is not what a man should do, you should be able to solve these problems yourself."
The lady holding the child was helpless and had to deal with it herself.
Shuyi said: "If you need it, I can help you hold the baby."
"Oh, thank you so much." The lady shouted happily.
She put the child in Xiuyi's palm.
Xiuyi looked at the little baby carefully and smiled, "He has blue eyes, which are very beautiful."
"Yes, he is very cute, but he is too naughty. He always eats without listening, urinates constantly, and then goes to bed. But he is always restless when he sleeps." The lady smiled while changing her diapers.
"What's his name?" Xiu Yi asked.
“Pardy.”
“Pardy?”
"Yes, it means happiness." The lady replied sweetly. She changed the child into a diaper and took the child back to her. "Thank you so much for your help."
"You're welcome."
"Nancy."
"What?" Xiu Yi didn't understand.
The lady smiled and said, "I said my name is Nancy Nancy Blair Blair Blair is my husband's last name."
Xiuyi lowered his head and thought, "My name is Siser."
Nancy's husband was a little dissatisfied: "I don't think you need to tell others about your boudoir name just because he helped you a little busy that is not worthy of attention."
Nancy looked at her husband with annoyance: "Oh, is that so irrelevant? It's such a good thing. Even if it's such a little bit of fun, my husband refused to help me. Because he is not what a man should do to me!"
The husband was a little angry, and Xiuyi hurriedly said, "If my kindness is exchanged for the quarrel between you and your wife, it will make me uneasy."
The couple glared at each other at the same time, the husband continued to sleep with his eyes closed, while the wife turned around and gave Xiu Yi a sweet smile: "No matter what, I have to thank you."
"When you go out, you should always help each other." Xiu Yi said lightly.
"Oh, speaking of this, I rarely see a child as old as you traveling alone. You shouldn't leave your parents' care too early." Nancy said casually: "You should know that the road is not peaceful, and no one can tell when you will encounter trouble or even danger. People who are traveling far away should be with each other and take care of each other."
"Tossey Iglare's blessing, the chance of being robbed while traveling has been greatly reduced recently." The husband, who was sleeping with his eyes closed, muttered.
Nancy almost jumped up as if she had heard some terrible name: "Oh, don't mention that demon. Oh my god, you always do this."
"Maybe the one next to you is." The husband said casually.
"Go to you, do you think the person who can kill Ablitt will sit beside us to change the diapers for me?" Nancy glared at her husband and said, "I don't think I have such a big face to invite such a person. I can't even invite you."
"At least you can seduce him."
Nancy glared at her husband angrily and looked at Xiuyi embarrassedly: "You don't have to pay attention to him, this is what he is."
"It's okay, I won't mind." Xiu Yi smiled.
"I'm going to my parents' home in Royo. After the child was born, his grandparents hadn't seen him yet. Where are you?"
“Villas Mountains.”
"What are you doing there?"
Xiuyi thought for a while and then replied: "Look for lost treasure."
