Skretil's Ignorance Walker

Chapter 155: Lost in vain

Faced with the other party's fierce desire for survival, Bleich was confused again. Could it be that he was the same?

In front of the onlookers at the scene, Bleich had to let go of the other party and began to ask his own questions.

"Why do you want to acquire these crystallized conifers?"

"...I, do you care if I buy these? Is it illegal?"

Seeing that the other party still wanted to resist, Bleich was also rude. She took out the token again and said to him seriously: "You'd better tell me honestly. You have to know that there have been several murders recently. The case is all related to this thing, and if you don’t tell me, then I will have no choice but to identify you as a suspect on behalf of the royal family.”

"This...I..."

It was obvious that this move was very effective, and the other party was immediately frightened. Originally, he planned to use his relationship with the nearby guards to get through, but when he heard that the other party could represent the royal family, any resistance he had had was swallowed back.

"I said, don't arrest me! I was also entrusted by someone else. He asked me to buy these things and then give them to him."

As expected, even the person in front of her was a chess piece of the other party. Blaish lost her patience a little at this time, and she asked again about the transaction location, voice and appearance of the other party.

"He just wants me to put the things in the place designated by him, and then I get the money from there. After a while, the things placed there disappear. As for his appearance, I have never seen him. He always looks at me. He used magic to transmit the voice to me from places where he could not reach, and the voice was also disguised. I didn’t know anything else. I just ran a small business to make a living. There are seniors and juniors, so don’t arrest me... "

"This...then take me to your trading place."

"Okay, okay, come with me..."

For a while, they didn't get any useful clues, so everyone had to follow the man in front of them to the place where they were trading. As they left, the people who were watching just now dispersed. However, Presumably they will also use this matter as a conversation piece after dinner when they get home.

"No, this is..."

Walking to a deserted street, the fat man pointed at a tree stump that looked to be some time old.

"Every time I put the goods on top, and then take the money from the gap below."

After listening to the man's words, Bleich went up and inspected the tree stump carefully, and found that except for a gap, there seemed to be nothing strange about it.

"This……"

"Um...can I go?"

While Bleich was still thinking, the man was restless at this moment. He just begged Bleich to let him go quickly.

"Don't worry, wait until we finish checking."

Maybe this man was lying to them, but Lu Ren had already checked this man, and there was no sign of magic. Like the woman just now, he was just a pawn of the other party.

"Let me see."

Seeing that Blaix was puzzled, Lu Ren volunteered to check it out. Although she could not see with her eyes, she might be able to find some clues with her keen magic perception.

"Um……"

As magic seeped into every crack around him, Lu Ren concentrated more and more, carefully searching for all the discordant places around him.

"Ok?"

Sure enough, after Lu Ren's full search, she found a hole underground. Judging from the outline coming from it, it was filled with a lot of things.

"There is an artificially created hole down here, and that guy must be hiding here."

After getting accurate information, everyone also began to look for mechanisms around them. Since it is underground, there must be an entrance. You can't just dig a hole and go down, right?

"Here."

Through perception, Lu Ren found an mechanism faster than others. It was located in an abandoned house nearby. There was an inconspicuous button on the wall. Although it might be ignored with the eyes, Lu Ren My perception just captured this extremely subtle bulge.

As the button was pressed, a tunnel appeared from the wall, and everyone followed this tunnel into the underground.

"Well... you have already found it, why can't I leave?"

The man following them was tortured by fear every moment. He just hoped that everyone would let him go quickly.

"Don't worry, we will let you go once we are sure it has nothing to do with you."

Bleich said don't worry, what if this is a smoke bomb he released to confuse you? Place him next to you first. If you have any problems, you can settle the matter with him as soon as possible.

As everyone went deeper, a hole came into view, but there were a lot of mutated beasts waiting for them.

"Yeah!"

The man was frightened, but the other girls drew their weapons and prepared to fight.

But with Blaixi and Lu Ren here, it's not Fa Fuwei's turn to fight. Lu Ren waved his hand and used various magics to strike accurately at the mutated beasts. There was almost no aftermath that would affect the stability of this space.

And Bryxi also took action and destroyed all the mutant beasts approaching at a speed that no one present could catch. In a short while, they had cleared all the threats here.

"Well... there's no one around. Could he have run away?"

Looking at the mess here, all kinds of information and some instruments, Bleich checked every place in detail, and finally concluded that the person ran away.

"This should be that guy's base camp. He researched and produced those mutated beasts here. Maybe he got the news from somewhere. He has run away long ago."

They had already discovered the other party's base camp, but they still let the other party run away. This made Bryxi feel discouraged and made her sigh.

"...Um, can I go?"

The man who was still following them was still asking what Bleich meant. Although he was not restrained, he also knew that if he escaped without permission, they might attack him. His small body could not withstand this. The crowd gave a gentle click.

Just when everyone was feeling sorry for the mastermind escaping, they were in the academy. Norma was alone on the wall beside the college looking at a man caught by her trap.

"...Long time no see, Norma."

Looking at the man who was hanging on the tree unable to move, Norma glared at him seriously, and then said helplessly: "You guys, haven't you given up on your research yet?"
