When he walked out of Wushuang's house, Wei Ling suddenly felt like he didn't know where he was going.
In the small courtyard on Ginkgo Street, there are no more Nanxing, Phytolacca and Jinu. It seems that it is no longer home.
Trying to suppress this mentality, he took Shou Gong and Wantong back to No. 36 Ginkgo Street.
Sitting on a chair in the living room of the small courtyard, Wei Ling fell into thought.
Shou Gong made a cup of green tea for both Wantong and Wei Ling.
The tea is fragrant and the water vapor is lingering,
Wei Ling gradually relaxed and was no longer eager for success.
"Captain, we can investigate all the flying vehicles leaving Iasi County these days... I don't have permission, you can apply."
Wantong couldn't hold his breath.
"I thought about this direction, but rejected it..."
Wei Ling threw an information packet to Shou Gong and Wantong, explaining why he did not consider breaking through from the direction of flying vehicles.
After Wantong and Shou Gong received the message, they thought for a moment and felt that the captain (young master) had actually thought about it very carefully, while both of them were a little shallow in their thinking.
At this moment, a message came from the Willing Sea of Consciousness:
"Wei Ling, I'm Qinghui. In the past few hours since I came back, I've checked in many directions, but I haven't found anything suspicious yet.
Do you have any good ideas? "
Wei Ling pondered for a moment, then packaged his thoughts and findings in Xiaorong Square, as well as the derivation process, and sent a reply to Qinghui.
A few minutes later, Qinghui received a message:
"Very good. Your discovery is very important and in line with common sense and logic. It has given me direction. Wait for my news."
Welling added a few requirements:
"Sir, please help me customize two cold weapons. The cost will be paid from my future merit or other methods. The specific requirements are as follows..."
The special knife requirements for "guards with swords" mentioned by General Wei Ling on the day he guarded the palace were sent to Qinghui along with the sword he planned to make in the same way, replacing it with a stronger and heavier material.
He had a hunch that if he and Shou Gong set out to find the three children, they would need at least one handy weapon.
"It's a small thing. With your contribution, for safety, and it's not a particularly rare metal, this can be free."
Lord Qinghui gave a straightforward reply:
"I'll give the factory a task right away. You can get it tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."
…
It was late at night, and Wantong was sent back to his home by Wei Ling to rest.
Wei Ling stood alone on the patio of the small courtyard.
Looking up at the starry sky simulated by the dome, the stars are dotted, deep and beautiful.
The fragrance of flowers in the night breeze is refreshing.
But Wei Ling felt a little irritated by all this, couldn't find a breakthrough point, and felt like a trapped animal inside.
At this time, Qinghui appeared outside the door.
Wei Ling welcomed Qinghui into the small courtyard:
"Sir, you should rest early."
Qinghui shook his head slightly, looking very tired:
"Welling, your idea is actually very close to mine. I have always suspected that this incident is an unfinished follow-up to the slave trade case, but I didn't expect that the other party would launch it at such a clever time.
I sorted through all the vehicle traffic between Yaxi County, Maiji County, and Bohu County in the past month, and I found no doubts at all.
The entry and exit of each vehicle and the information of personnel are clear and checkable. "
Wei Ling nodded in approval:
"Well, yes, sir, this situation is considered normal. If the other party can't even do this step, then they don't have the mental capacity to plan this robbery plan."
Qinghui frowned. He seemed to be cheering himself up:
"Yes, the other party's plan is perfect, but no matter what, we must find the three children, and I value them very much!
Also, I don’t believe in plans without any flaws. "
Welling nodded and changed his thoughts to the second direction he had been considering for a long time:
"Sir, how many people have left Iasi County and gone to the northwest recently?"
"Huh? You mean? Let me check..."
Qingfu frowned slightly, closed his eyes and concentrated. With his system authority and computing power, he got the result in a moment.
"From the beginning of the war to today, a total of 654 people have left Iasi County and returned to Bohu and Maiji counties."
"Focus on the two days before and the day of the public memorial day, as well as the reasons for their departure."
Welling reminded him that he did not have permission to view the sergeant's schedule and tasks.
"Among these 654 people, 318 were those who supported some special ammunition materials for the Battle of Iasi, together with vehicle operators, and 132 people returned to the two counties in advance due to the end of the battle, and they were all a few days before the public memorial day. If he left in the sky, the suspicion should be relatively small."
Wei Ling frowned and continued to ask:
"The remaining 254 people are the record of the day of the memorial and one day before and after, a total of three days, right?
Then among the 254 people, how many people left on the day of the public memorial, how many people left on the next day, and their identity composition.
Also, aside from the fact that they were arranged by the county and had official duties, the main point was that they left for personal reasons. The last condition is, how many people are not born in Iasi County? "
Qingfu frowned and used all his calculation skills.
Suddenly, his expression changed and he continued to think.
After a moment, he showed an incredible look:
“With so many screening and elimination criteria, only three people meet your criteria.
There was a sergeant who asked to return to Bohu County to visit relatives because his mother was critically ill before the public memorial ceremony. This man's name was Kuma. He had also participated in the battle and was considered a senior sergeant.
The other two people, Ma Bo and Ma Lin, were brothers. They were on duty in the morning of the memorial day, but left in the afternoon for personal reasons and went to Bohu County. "
"Why did puffball and Ma Lin leave?"
"These two people have already served beyond their term of service. It is said that the battle is over. They have fulfilled their wish to serve the country and hope to retire.
They did not choose to wait in Iasi County to discuss their merits and be rewarded after the war. They said that even if they were in Bohu, their merits and bonuses would not be affected, and they could go back to their hometown to arrange their future lives. "
Qinghui threw the information here and slapped his forehead:
"Ah, I understand! Combined with your hypothesis of how to kidnap three children, these three people have major suspicions!
Kuma left the day before, actually leaving the city in advance and waiting near the woods. Because of his long service time and high level, he was qualified to retain the armed exoskeleton, so he could be the main attacker.
The two of them, Ma Bo and Ma Lin, took advantage of the opportunity of participating in public sacrifices to create an opportunity for their three children to not be seen by others! "
A look of pain appeared on Qinghui's face:
"Why bother? They are all professional sergeants of the empire, especially Kuma. I look at his resume. After this battle, he can even become a junior general!"
With his wisdom and experience, he basically approved of Welling's screening strategy from the bottom of his heart. The level of suspicion against the three people has been infinitely increased, and it is even possible to draw conclusions.
Wei Ling did not have this emotion, perhaps because he did not have the same emotion as Qinghui, and was sad that a sergeant with such qualifications had gone astray.
"Oops!"
Qinghui shouted softly and even forgot to use information, instead using words instinctively.
"What's the matter, sir?"
Qinghui's expression no longer remained calm, but became anxious:
"I have been connecting to the barrier system just now to inquire about Bohu County. The satellite communication is extremely unstable. Now the inquiry results are available.
None of these three people have returned to Bohu County, and their whereabouts are unknown! "
"Continue to inquire about the vehicle information they are riding on."
Qinghui shook his head slightly, looking very helpless:
"They all use the smallest rented civilian vehicles, not even as good as the Intellectual 'Oriole' level. You should have seen them, very crude ones."
Welling thought of the small civilian-grade vehicles that he occasionally saw in the skies over the county. The hull was basically a small flying platform, and some even had incomplete coverings.
Wei Ling couldn't help but feel a little anxious:
"Then the suspicion of these three people has grown infinitely. Have they defected?"
Qinghui also felt something bad. If these three people reunited, where would they go?
Even if Wei Ling pursues it, in which direction should he go?
Wei Ling suppressed his impatience and asked a new question:
"No, there is another problem. If there are only three sergeants, it is impossible for Nan Xing and others to be captured so easily without even a chance to call for help. There should be another person, a warlock, cooperating!"
Qinghui suddenly realized:
"You mean, according to your analysis, you can use your power on three children through a wall?"
"Yes, the strength must be at least at the late elementary level, or even at the level of an intermediate warlock."
"That makes sense. I'll continue searching for warlocks."
Qinghui closed his eyes and searched for information.
Welling was not idle either. He continued to retrieve the data on the movement of auditors from his memory during the original battle and carefully analyzed the doubts in it.
Massive data flows in his sea of consciousness, changing different filtering conditions to find suspicious people.
Nothing suspicious.
After a while, the two men's investigation was in trouble again.
Finally, another thought suddenly came to Wei Ling's mind. Why not think in another person's shoes?
What if it was a warlock who arrived in Iasi long in advance with a purpose, but never had the chance to make a move?
So what will he do?
Thinking from the other side's point of view, hiding one's whereabouts is a necessary option.
Then, the other party will definitely not touch and connect to the barrier system easily.
If it weren't for the identity information needed to enter the city, the other party would even want to become an invisible person!
Just as he said, Wei Ling immediately analyzed the data of those who had the authority to investigate people entering and leaving Iasi that day, and only analyzed the data of those warlocks.
The main thing is to see who has the least connection with the enchantment system and who wants to be invisible. The top five will be ranked.
These data are much less than those of natural people, and the amount of data is also much smaller.
After a simple elimination and comparison, Welling listed five people in an instant.
They all come from different places and are not local sorcerers from Iasi County.
Another characteristic of them is that they are all mid-level warlocks.
There was even one who was still in the Western Expedition and had not returned. Of course, this person was immediately eliminated.
Reducing the connection with the system enchantment may be a common problem among mid-level and above warlocks.
When the level is high, I don't want to spend energy paying attention to other things, and I am more willing to spend energy on practicing and meditating to exercise my spiritual consciousness.
For mid-level warlocks, Wei Ling naturally has no authority to inquire.
As soon as he thought about it, Wei Ling rolled his eyes and thought of a new angle.
He then used his spiritual consciousness to analyze the dream memories of Wu Huan and his wife, Yun Zhu and Wantong.
This time, Welling no longer focused on whether Wushu and others had communicated with others, and whether the three children involved in the communication process would attend the public sacrifice at a specific time.
He focused his analysis on the people around them as they talked.
Dreamers may not pay attention to the environmental characters in the dream. Those information are just the environmental background of the dream, but these backgrounds are things that really existed.
These background things will form the underlying conscious image and provide information to Welling.
After researching and analyzing so many mental samples, I have mastered the skills of sleeping, dreaming, nightmares, and sleepwalking. Now I can say that my understanding of the conscious and subconscious aspects is at a master level.
Li Lingyou and Wang Xixin had a quarrel that day, and the loss of language information left a deep impression on Wei Ling.
Because of the language information package, people around you can hear it if they are willing to listen.
Unexpectedly, Wei Ling just checked with the idea of giving it a try, and after this check, he really found clues.
While Wushu was drinking with his family and neighbors to celebrate, Wei Ling discovered that a sorcerer was also drinking at the table next to theirs.
When Wantong and Wuyou were eating at the inn, there was a warlock at the door of the inn. He was looking carefully at the inn's signature dishes. He seemed to be confused about what to eat.
On the day of the public memorial day, when Wantong watched the three children walking towards Xiaorong Square, the warlock was not far away from the three children, but his eyes were on Wantong!
Among the 53 warlocks who uploaded their duty video information, there was that warlock.
The most important thing is that this person is among the five people who have the least number of connections to the system barrier. He ranks first, that is, he entered the identification of Yasi County about ten days before the war.
He connected to the system just once!
Welling has a conclusion!
it's him!
Murong Langgan from the Murong clan in Gusu!
Welling let out a long breath. Fortunately, he didn't stick to the system information itself and changed his mind to find the answer.
Wei Ling did not hesitate, packed up his analysis process and results and threw them to Qinghui:
"My lord, where is this warlock now?"
