It seems like a choice.
In fact.
Because of the final star rating of this game.
Su Wen could not miss any opportunity to clean up the 'Tide' sect.
so.
Just the opposite of the Runaway Party.
He wanted to take advantage of the approaching storm and reverse the layout.
Kill the cultists on the ship.
As for the half-hour time limit.
Even a little too long.
He calmly said to the security captain beside him:
"Mr. Paul, take me to the crime scene."
In the banquet hall.
The deceased fell near the edge of the main stage. There was a slight strangulation mark on his neck. At the same time, there were blunt force wounds on his head and back.
Nielsen analysis said:
"It looks like he was attacked by surprise."
at this time.
The originally clear summer sky outside the cabin window was gradually shrouded in clouds.
There are no signs of a storm approaching without warning.
Everyone on the boat felt the rising bumps.
Su Wen, on the other hand, entered the scene calmly.
It is not affected by environmental factors.
He clicked on the trial ability of this game:
[Epic Relic: 'Branlit's Lantern']
A faint shimmer of light expanded from inside the room, forming an undetectable circular psychic field.
A simple lantern with elegant appearance and brown-black Baroque style that could soothe the soul also appeared in Su Wen's hand.
A silent oath followed:
[I mourn the dead, just like Helena swears an oath for the living]
[Only silence gives birth to words; only darkness becomes light; only death gives rise to new life; fireflies fall into the void, shining brightly. 】
[I am the extraditer of the forgotten people - 'The afterglow of the light' - Branlett]
moment.
Su Wen's computer screen changed to split-screen mode.
One end.
The picture of the upcoming storm on the "Collin" cruise ship is still.
And the other end.
In the deep banquet hall where all the background lights are turned off.
Just a backdrop of warm dim light from a lantern was lit.
then.
A hazy figure stood opposite Su Wen.
【Lights shrouded】
[Because the dead Bourne is in the 'deep abyss'￥%& border pull, the power of consciousness gradually dissipates]
[Branlit Lantern Projection (First Level) cannot resist the pull of the abyss]
[So you can only ask two questions and cannot communicate to gain the power of the mourner]
It seems there are many restrictions.
He thought for a moment.
Then I found the question that needed to be asked most at the moment.
Under the dim light.
Facing the victim's remnant soul, Su Wen calmly asked the first question:
"Bourne, do you remember the characteristics of the murderer?"
Bourne replied dully:
"He has a strange smell, like a mixture of Sicilian citrus, black currants and some kind of floral scent that I can't name.
Before I died, I heard an inexplicable suppressed excitement in his voice, which made people shudder. "
Su Wen wrote down the answer to this question.
Then he asked:
"If you were to analyze it, what was his motive for killing you?"
“I am a businessman who makes a living by shipping goods.
This time I took a luxury cruise to the Samoa Islands not because I was too rich and wanted to enjoy it, but because among the guests on this trip were shipping magnates I wanted to make friends with.
To this end, I also brought a border relic that was said to have 'extraordinary properties' to give to him.
But I don't know if the death was caused by that relic. "
After the soul of the dead, who was gradually losing his self-consciousness due to the pull of the abyss, answered.
[Branlett's lantern loses its effectiveness]
[Because you completed the projection for 10 seconds, you consumed 100 points of psychic energy]
【You feel an inexplicable dizziness】
As a transcendent who has just advanced to the first level.
It is still difficult for Su Wen to use the epic relic that has been reduced in energy level.
But he already got the answers he needed.
That's right.
These two questions pointed directly at the two key points of his game.
The first is to obtain the murderer's information and infer all the cultists who belong to the 'Tide Sect'.
The second is to analyze the characteristics and reasons of the victim, infer the identity of the 'sacrifice', and find the object that needs protection.
The main perspective of the game begins to flow.
Su Wen silently recalled the cruise roster he had just obtained.
He's already got a target.
at the same time.
Looking at the swaying lights outside the cruise ship window
There is still some time.
Layout is about to begin.
He whispered a few words in a low voice to the security captain and the traveler beside him.
then.
Not like everyone else's panic.
Su Wen said calmly:
"Mr. Paul, I heard that there are several marine biologists on this trip. Can you take me to their lounge?"
"no problem."
Although he didn't quite understand the arrangement just made by Detective Kevin.
But at least it’s clear where the guests on this cruise ship are.
The security captain took him to the entrance of the large lounge on the third floor.
Then he knocked on the door:
"Please cooperate with us in emergency investigation."
Three seconds later.
The door of the room was opened, and a man with messy hair wearing a white research coat opened the door.
Then he said to the others in the room:
"Stop what you are doing first, and quickly complete the investigation before conducting ocean current data analysis."
Several more researchers walked out of the room.
[Identification: Sidney Mullen, Lorenz Riel College of the Pacific - Senior teacher of the Department of Oceanography, Academy of Natural Sciences, second-level transcendent, extraordinary characteristics: orbit determination]
[Identification: Max Longfellow, Intermediate Teacher at the Department of Oceanography, Pacific Lawrence Riel College-Natural Science Park, First-Order Extraordinary Person, Extraordinary Characteristics: High-speed Thinking]
....
The subsequent identification results were not beyond Su Wen’s expectation.
But he still asked according to the expected process:
"Where were you when the murder occurred in the banquet hall?"
"There was no possibility of an 'undercurrent' erupting at that time. Sidney was sleeping. He stayed up late last night."
"Don't talk so much."
Sidney stopped one of his companions from saying "tell the truth" in embarrassment, and then replied:
“In order to study the subsequent effects of the end of the storm season, we applied for project funding.
The first three months were spent on inspection in the Baltic Sea, and now it happens that Vladivostok (Vladivostok) followed the route to the Samoa Islands.
We have just been conducting research, so it is naturally impossible to be the murderer. This is a letter stamped by the college. If you don’t believe me, you can read it. "
Nelson is a world-renowned traveler and photographer.
He took the off-white letter with a complicated pattern and a seagull seal:
"Lauren Zrail is a research institution for extraordinary beings comparable to All Souls College in Oxford, Westminster Clock Tower, and Albany College in New York State."
"How real is it?"
"At least in my opinion, it's believable."
Nelson replied.
Su Wen nodded.
"Since it is credible."
He closed the door, sat on the sofa in the luxurious cabin, and then said to the researchers in a narrative tone:
"Then have you ever heard of the 'Tide' sect?"
"Cultist?"
Sidney looked a little heavy.
He did not expect that after investigation by the night watchman, there would be an anti-human lunatic on the ferry to the Samoa Islands:
"Now that we have Captain Adrian's guarantee, what do you want us to do?"
Su Wen really appreciates smart people, and there is no need to explain too much.
not to mention.
It seems that the two of them have a lot in common in terms of proper rest.
But now is not the time for small talk.
He said calmly:
"I have found the murderer of the deceased, but I need someone to come out and correct this. This candidate cannot be myself."
"Aren't you a detective?"
Nelson asked slightly surprised:
"Isn't fame and prestige what you are after? Why do you want to give the credit to others."
Hear the question.
Su Wen smiled, and then said very rationally:
“Of course I need fame and prestige.
But please listen clearly.
I'm talking about the murderer of 'the deceased'.
Could it be.
Do you think that only one lunatic came to the Tide Sect this time?
As for the process,
When it's all over, others will understand. "
from this sentence.
Everyone felt the shocking meaning of Su Wen's words.
