Heroic Spirit: I, Shinji, have tried my best.
Chapter 338: Snake-like Woman
"...boom...boom!"
Gray clouds filled the sky, pouring heavy rain on the wilderness.
In this uninhabited place, there stands a large mansion, which is the destination of Weber and his party, the Marbury Workshop.
"Squeak~"
Pushing open the old wooden door, several people hurried over here quickly. Fortunately, they arrived before being drenched by the storm, but the price was a lot of physical strength wasted.
Although this is not a problem for most people present, even ordinary people would at most feel a little tired...except for a certain weak scholar.
“Ha…ha…huh!”
"Are you alright, my Lord?"
"...I'm fine...I just didn't expect to have to walk such a long way."
Weber was so tired that he was gasping for breath. He didn't expect that he would have to go through a long run before handling the case.
"Really, you're still the same little master as always."
"...Who do you say is the young master?"
"Indeed, Waver, you are still too weak. This is not a good thing... How about learning some Taijutsu from me?"
"I'm weak there!"
Weber's face turned pale and blue as he looked at the two guys who kept poking his spine from behind...
They were arguing fiercely just now and looked like they were about to fight at any time, but how come they suddenly united as a team when everyone was complaining about him?
Wells, who was standing next to him, watched Weber being mercilessly criticized with a helpless smile on his face...suddenly!
A white snake suddenly jumped out from the stairs in front of everyone, and before they could react, it came directly to Wells' feet, coiled around his body in a blink of an eye, and bound him tightly into a ball.
This sudden change immediately made everyone alert. Weber looked at Wells again and saw that the white snake on the other's body was gone, replaced by a long white belt, which tied him up like a snake.
"This magic..."
"You're finally back."
"who!"
A soft female voice came from upstairs. As soon as the voice fell, Lanis's mercury maid immediately switched her arms to attack mode and aimed upwards. Gray's hand under the cloak also grasped Yade, ready to rush up at any time...
"and many more!"
At this moment, Weber suddenly raised his hand to stop everyone, walked forward slowly, and said to the people upstairs:
"I didn't expect you to have arrived first, Miss Huaye."
"...Long time no see, Lord El-Melloi II."
An intellectual beauty wearing glasses walked out slowly from the darkness, looking at Weber as if he were an old friend whom he had not seen for many years.
Seeing that the other party was someone her master knew, the innocent Gray breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed her vigilance a little, but Lanis still did not let her maid withdraw her fighting stance...
"Since we have received the complaint, we must immediately conduct an investigation. This is the responsibility of the Legal Affairs Division... and based on the results of the investigation..."
"You mean, is it?"
"That's right...Mr. Wells, you are suspected of murdering Lord Trevor, so you are under arrest now."
"Wow...Wait! Why is this happening!?"
Wells used word magic to break the cloth that sealed his mouth and shouted in panic. At this moment, the woman called Miss Huaye by Weber came down the stairs, followed by a dark-skinned woman.
"Shut up! You murderer of your father!"
"Val...Valletta?"
"...Ms. Huaye, who is this?"
"Valletta Codrington...is a witness sent by the Codrington family, a necromancer."
"Yes, I immediately started to summon Lord Trevor after I arrived here, and wanted to find out the truth... but the trace was erased by someone."
"Oh my, there is such a thing!"
Lanis chuckled and looked at Wells who was lying on the ground, looking like she was watching a show with great interest.
After hearing this, Weber was at a loss for words.
"The necromancy of necromancy can summon the spirits of the dead and communicate with them, but not all dead people can be summoned... Once
But if the process is affected, the necromancy will be ineffective."
"It's like the fingerprints weren't wiped off during the crime, and only a necromancer can do that!"
Valletta pointed at Wells with a bad look on his face and insisted that he was the murderer.
"Wait a minute, this can only be used as a clue. We can't directly conclude that he is the murderer..."
"No! Not only Lord Trevor... All those who died from lightning strikes cannot be recalled through necromancy, and every time a dead person appears, Wells will appear in this mansion!"
"what?"
"No, you misunderstood, Valletta! I also tried to call back my father's soul, but I failed in the end..."
"Then do you have any way to prove it?"
"..."
Seeing that the other party was speechless for a moment, Miss Huaye chuckled:
"Humph, these evidences are enough..."
Having said that, he was ready to take Wells away directly.
"...I say, are all your legal and political department's work so sloppy?"
"Ok?"
A strange voice suddenly came, causing her eyes behind the lenses to stare at the person who was speaking.
Is that... an unknown boy?
"Every time I show up, someone dies. You actually believed this thing that clearly showed me as the murderer? Don't you even consider framing me?"
Shinji complained to everyone speechlessly.
I thought it would be a brain-burning suspense and mystery solving game, but the other party just found an excuse and wanted to close the case. Anyone who has read a little detective novel can feel that something is wrong, right?
And that woman...
She looks very gentle and beautiful, with long black hair reaching her ankles, and she looks like an oriental beauty in a kimono.
But Shinji felt a venomous thorn in the other person's eyes. This woman, who looked like a scheming and dark person, would end the case so hastily, making him look more like the murderer.
"...Your Excellency, who is this?"
"My disciple, I'm sorry, he always speaks his mind like this, but I have the same idea."
Waver turned his head and glanced at Shinji calmly. Although he was a little surprised by his sudden interruption, he didn't say anything.
But since Shinji suddenly intervened in this matter, he must have used some method to confirm that Wells was not the murderer...
