Chapter 0499 - Detective


Chapter 439: Detective On August 17, 3048, in the territory of the former Duke of Fourier in the Northern Territories, a Magic Crystal-powered sidecar motorcycle was driving on a somewhat bumpy dirt road.

A brown-haired young man in an army green canvas jacket and sunglasses was driving a motorcycle while talking intently to a button-sized communication crystal hanging from his collar.

"Okay, I know, I'll take care of my body, by the way, Aunt Erica, do you have any news of the lord's eldest brother?"

After listening to a long list of nagging, the young man with a still immature face tried to divert the topic with some headaches.

"Hey~ There is still no news from that guy, but the Sky Fortress contacted Xincheng once last month, and it is said that the guy is doing a big thing, and he may not be able to come back in a short time."

Erica's voice came from the communication crystal, and the voice of the woman, who is now almost thirty years old, is full of the special charm of a mature woman, and when it comes to Zhao Yannian, the woman's inadvertently resentful young man almost drove the car into the field on the side of the road with a shake of his hands.

"By the way, I heard that Ayton is going to be promoted to major, and it just so happens that I can get a vacation after completing this mission, so I will definitely come back and celebrate with you then."

The young man knew that the topic he had just changed seemed to have hit a minefield, so he hurriedly changed the topic again in a bit of a panic.

"Well, Jasmine happened to have recently picked out a few blind dates for you and Adam, you have been an adult for more than two years now, and it is time to start a family, and it is time to come back this time to settle the family affairs, so that a few of us will have peace of mind."

Although the tone of the woman opposite was unusually flat, this topic was extremely lethal to the young man.

This time, the young man finally couldn't grasp the direction of the speeding motorcycle, and the out-of-control motorcycle plunged headlong into the lush weeds on the side of the road.

"Ah!!

h An insidious rock was hidden in the grass, and when the motorcycle crashed into the rock, the young man screamed and flew up, and then rolled out of the hillside covered with soft grass.

"Jamie, you're not too young, don't pretend to ......be in a car accident to escape every time I mention to your Aunt Jasmine about a blind date" Erica's voice was still so calm, this Jamie, who is now eighteen years old and has grown into a tall young man, turned off the communication crystal in a bit of anger, and then looked helplessly at the blue sky.

Since Jamie and a large number of others were found to have been under mind control during that battle to conquer the orcs, these personnel were directly removed from the army by the military department at the request of the Supreme Council.

It is impossible for the Empire to allow potentially dangerous personnel to approach the Empire's most important forces and secrets, and Jamie has no complaints about this.

But Jamie still can't help but resent the monster who once unknowingly controlled him, if it weren't for that guy, Jamie might have become the tactical commander of a certain warband in the empire now, although Jamie doesn't think much of that glorious status, but he still hopes to add a little luster to the woman who raised him by acquiring those positions that can be looked up to by everyone.

However, after that incident, Jamie had no chance with the army, and he was unable to re-enter the army, and after he was depressed for a while, he was arranged by Zhao Yannian for a period of special training, and then Jamie entered a special institution belonging to Xincheng and became an ordinary government employee.

Known as the Cult Investigation Bureau, the mission was to investigate dangerous species that hide among humans.

This agency was established after Zhao Yannian realized that the remnants of the vanished Dark Elves and the Mutant Moon Elves did not seem to intend to be silent.

The predecessor of this department was a part of the intelligence department owned by the Rodnik Lord, and after Zhao Yannian made this part of the force public, he converted them into the official power of the empire, and Sherlock, the former intelligence peddler, finally did not have to live as a bartender in a tavern nested in the lower part of the imperial capital, and as the director of the heresy investigation bureau, he began to track down those alien races that were dangerous to humans like a hound.

In the more than a year since Jamie joined the Inquisition, the boy has won everyone's appreciation and recognition with his amazing wisdom and analytical skills, and Jamie, who has the idea of finding the monster who controlled him at the beginning to complete revenge, has solved several major cases involving aliens in a row, and the boy unexpectedly rejected the promotion award, and is still like a lowest-level investigator of the Investigation Bureau running around the Dragon Sleep Continent, looking for those ghosts hidden in the shadows for the empire and himself.

Now Jamie is rushing to a village in the former Dukedom of Fourier, according to the previous report of local officials, more than ten people in that village have disappeared in the past half month.

Not only that, but a large number of livestock were killed because of unknown creatures, and these killings took place after officials had increased the number of village guards.

"There were no witnesses, the killers came and went without a trace, and some of the dead livestock lost their blood and became like dried corpses......

"Jamie looked at the photo in his hand as he continued to drive the road with a slightly deformed front wheel.

This time, his mission is to find the beast that caused the disappearance of people and the death of livestock, and then call in the armed forces to clean it up.

"If the guy controlling me is a Mind Flayer from Hell, according to Big Brother Lord, then sucking the blood of livestock is clearly not the style of those picky eaters.

It looks like this time it's another crazy vampire beast.

Somewhat disappointed, Jamie stuffed the picture back into his backpack and sped up the bike.

Around noon, Jamie was led by a few flattering officials to the village that had been attacked.

Since the corpses could not be preserved for long in the summer, Jamie, led by the officials, saw only an empty farm with blackened blood stains everywhere.

"Detective, this is the scene of the crime, although we disposed of the carcasses of those livestock in order not to cause the plague, but no one has touched the bloodstains and the things at the scene."

The village chief of the village where the crime occurred was a stout middle-aged man, but when facing Jamie, who was half a head shorter than him, the big man's waist unconsciously bent down.

"Hahaha, uncle, it's okay if you don't want this, we're just the lowest level of agents, and we are not as high as the village chief according to the rank."

Jamie smiled like a sunny boy after seeing the appearance of the village chief, the boy seemed to touch the back of his head with some embarrassment, and his squinted eyes looked at the expressions of several officials present with a hint of scrutiny.

"How can that work, we are just a poor country here, you are from Xincheng, what kind of place is Xincheng, I heard that even His Majesty the Emperor is not ready to live in the imperial capital, and he wants to build the palace in Xincheng.

How can someone from that kind of place be like us mud legs?

Due to the development of information, several officials of different shapes in front of Jamie also knew that Xincheng was as important as the imperial capital, and for officials from that kind of place, these petty officials leaked fear and flattery, and Jamie did not notice anything unusual.

Later, Jamie investigates the scene of the slaughter of the livestock, and finds no special clues other than being able to surmise that the other party is moving very quickly.

Because of this, Jamie spent the following afternoon searching for information in the missing villages, but when the village names heard that Jamie wanted to ask about the missing people, they fled in fright, or refused to speak.

Even if the village officials behind Jamie threatened the villagers, the frightened villagers couldn't say anything, and the few officials who felt that their prestige had been hit still didn't get any useful information after leading Jamie on a long tour.

In the end, a few people who were helpless took Jamie to dinner at the village chief's house, and after dinner, after the others said goodbye and left, the originally humble village chief secretly called Jamie aside.

"You mean, the criminal is in the village?"

Jamie asked with some surprise after hearing the village chief's whisper.

"Shhhh Hush!

Be quiet, that monster has been in the village since half a year ago, but at the beginning, it was only a few dead livestock and no one took it seriously, but later the livestock died more and more, and it was difficult for us to pay the autumn harvest tax in the autumn, so some villagers had the audacity to report the news to the sheriff in the town.

But I didn't expect it to be ...... later," the village chief stretched out his calloused palm to cover Jamie's mouth, and then told what had happened little by little in his own voice.

It turned out that the monster was originally thought to be a wild beast roaming nearby, but no one expected that after a villager reported it to the sheriff, the next day, the villager and his family disappeared from his home inexplicably.

The incident then alarmed the villagers, and after a search for the missing person failed, a second villager tried to report the matter to the sheriff.

Still the same as last time, the entire family of the villagers reported missing, and at this time, there were already clever villagers who guessed that the monster was probably watching them among the villagers.

All the villagers were frightened by this, even if the monster then slaughtered the village's livestock, the villagers did not dare to say anything, but the first two requests for help from the sheriff had been accepted by the sheriff, and then soldiers from nearby cities came to the village and patrolled the village for a week.

But the monster's actions, not only did not restrain in the slightest, but became more arrogant.
