Fairbos Villa, study. Fairbus had been dressed and placed on the chair in front of the desk. He was climbing on the desk as Chateau saw when he arrived, holding the wooden ink pen in his hand.
After driving all the servants out, Mrs. Patty herself went to the place where Chateau had placed Fairbuss, knocked lightly, and then knocked again in other places.
The sound was no different, and there was no obvious switch on the surface. Mrs. Patty looked at Chateau again.
"Lord Xia Da——"
"Let me try it!" Shado was sure that there was a hidden compartment underneath, but he detected it through Fairbus' body at that time. It was good to know that there was something inside, so he did not carefully search for a way to open it.
To activate it now, Xia Duo needs to cast [Imaging Technique] again. This spell is a variant that combines [Communication Technique] and [Phantom Sound Technique]. It is essentially a 0-level spell.
The maximum detection range is no more than one arm, and it is also related to the material of the object. The denser the object or the fluffier the object, the greater the detection range. Those in the intermediate state can detect more.
Before casting [Imaging Technique], Sha Duo glanced at Master Kaili. Kaili snorted and turned away. In Mrs. Patty's eyes, this might mean she didn't want to pry into Sha Duo's secrets.
But in fact, the magician's identification of spells in a focused state does not completely require eyes. He can make a vague judgment based on perception alone.
The last time he let Kaili see him cast a spell, this time he didn't want to take advantage of Kaili. The spell itself was not that difficult, but what was valuable in it was the application of sound brought by Sha Duo from the earth.
Almost everyone on Earth knows about echo detection, but this is not the case in Nese. Even if someone knows, they will not tell others easily.
Buzz - Xia Duo's palm hovered less than 2 centimeters above the floor. Invisible fluctuations instantly penetrated the Lin plate, and the floor actually resonated with Xia Duo's detection sound waves, making a low buzzing sound.
This made it difficult to detect specific information. Xia Duo immediately adjusted the frequency, and a gray picture with obvious outlines and different shades was fed back.
This time he not only identified the contents, but also found the mechanism to open the secret compartment. In front of Parthiv, Shado pressed the switch - it was an eye-shaped switch hidden in the wooden texture of the floor. It was about the size of a normal thumb. If someone familiar with the wooden texture examined it carefully, it might be Can be found.
After the switch was pressed, a piece of floor slowly retracted, revealing a hidden compartment.
"Ah——" After Shado pressed the switch, Mrs. Patty suddenly exclaimed, and the voice attracted Kaili. Mrs. Patty saw that there was actually a hidden compartment on the floor, and——
"Those eyes!" Mrs. Patty had already burst into tears without checking the hidden items immediately. Facing the sudden loss of control, Shado took a step back.
But at this time, Carey stepped forward, helped Mrs. Patty up, and comforted: "Madam, do you need my help?"
"Thank you, Master Mage!" Mrs. Patty broke away from Kaili and said to Sha Duo,
"Lord Xia Da, I understand. The accident happened not before, but several years ago." Kaili looked livid and almost left the scene angrily, but he was reluctant to part with the shiny gold coins and suppressed his displeasure to stay. down, and now he is also interested in Xia Duo.
After hearing Parthivrao's explanation, Shado still didn't understand why he could tell from his eyes that something had happened to Fairbus!
"Mrs. Patty, can you give more details? If you want to find the murderer, the more information you know, the easier it will be to find out."
"I understand." Mrs. Patty wiped her tears, controlled her emotions, and said,
"Felbus has a magic item that looks like a cane, and he carries it with him almost everywhere. But five years ago, when he came back from the Chamber of Commerce, the cane was missing. It was stolen when he was checking the goods at the dock."
"Then what?"
"Then two days ago, he suddenly wanted to go upstairs to deal with some things, and then -" Mrs. Patty's eyes fell again.
But Xia Duo continued to ask,
"What does the cane have to do with these eyes?"
"The end of the cane is a metal cylinder in the shape of an eye." It didn't take much for Xia Duo to understand. Just now he pressed the button with his hand to open the mechanism, which was not difficult for him, but Ferbers was just a It is difficult for ordinary people, and they are still over 50 years old, to have much strength.
And activating it with a magic item might make an ordinary person feel more at ease.
"Madam, I need to check the things in the secret compartment!" After verifying the secret compartment, Mrs. Patty already believed Shado's judgment on the cause of Ferbers' death, but she still asked Carey to come with her when checking the secret compartment.
"Two adults, please feel free to check. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me. Now I just want to know who killed my Fairbus." Carey didn't know what was going on, but Mrs. Patty was very interested in him. He still understood the need from examining the cause of death to investigating the murderer, but if he didn't examine the cause of death, he wouldn't be able to get gold coins. In fact, he was similar to Xia Duo in that he didn't have much interest in finding the murderer.
"Mrs. Patty, do you really trust his judgment? I think it is necessary to check again."
"No, no need!" Mrs. Patty refused directly. She had already made a decision.
"Fairbus may have had an accident five years ago. There is no need to worry about the cause of death two years ago. I want to find the murderer even more!" Seemingly seeing what Carey was thinking, Mrs. Patty added,
"Sir Kaili, don't worry about the remuneration. As long as you investigate carefully, you will definitely be satisfied with the remuneration." He had to speak so straightforwardly. What else could Kaili do? He glanced at Xia Duo and began to check the secret room. Things, and Xia Duo has already received a mission voucher worth at least 400 gold coins. Now the more he does, the more he will earn. He doesn't think it's too much at all.
While the two were checking the secret compartment, Mrs. Patty ordered the servants to come in and carry Fairbus out. As for the will that stated that she would inherit all the property, she did not touch it.
"Two adults, you can look through the things in the secret room and study room as you like. There will be other people to help with the investigation later. Please forgive me."
"Got it!" Xia Duo glanced at Kaili subconsciously, and Kaili also looked at him. In his eyes, the two people who were originally a little cold and even contradictory finally unified their opinions - this woman is crazy!
The old man is dead, but I am still young. I don’t want to get the family property first, but I want to avenge the old man. Is there really such an unforgettable love?
Xia Duo has never been in love and longs for love, but he accepts the reality more. If he were Parthiv Raohua, the first thing he would do is to collect the family property and the old man's son. After that, whether he wants revenge or whatever, he can do it in detail A plan is always better than catching a person and asking him to help with the investigation.
With such a big fuss, aren't you afraid that the murderer will jump out and kill her too? But after all, Chateau was not Mrs. Patty, and he had no way of knowing what this woman was really thinking, but he had no reason to refuse this kind of job that was almost like sending money.
Maybe this trip will be able to complete the task target for promotion authority!
