"Those who were killed were all mages. There were several young descendants of the Sun family who had not awakened the talent of mages and were still ordinary people. However, they escaped death and survived. They were the ones who described the situation to the execution department." Yan Ni Shuang said: "The flames burn from people's throats, pour out from their mouths, and then their eyes and ears..."
"The survivors were all children. After obtaining the necessary information, the executive department erased their memories and sent them to the orphanage..." Yan Nishuang said unbearably.
"Is she the girl from the Yan family?" Suddenly, an old voice sounded from behind the rows of corpse racks, which really startled Bai Lin. He didn't even feel that there was a living person here.
"Grandpa Zong, it's me!" Yan Nishuang agreed.
While he was talking, a rickety old man walked out of the dim light. He was haggard, with a sallow face and no beard. He was at least seventy or eighty years old. He had a slight hunchback and one leg was still lame, but Bai Lin came out of him. Feeling the powerful magic power, he calmly scanned the summoning illustrated book. Yan Nishuang's magic power was 83, and the inconspicuous Grandpa Zong's was as high as 92. This was Bai Lin's first sight except Dumbledore and himself. The one with the highest magic power ever.
The old man glanced at Bai Lin, and suddenly his eyes widened in surprise. He didn't say anything for a long time, but Yan Nishuang called out: "Grandpa Zong, I will bring someone to take a look. It may be helpful to solve the case."
Bai Lin guessed that this old man must be a senior in the execution department. Such a big case has been reported to the Si Tianjian Daily. I am afraid it has shocked the entire Eastern magic circle. For the old magic family, it should be a person for a while. People are in danger, no matter how powerful Yan Nishuang is, the Spell Management Committee will definitely send the most capable mage to help investigate the matter.
Bai Lin nodded to the old man and said politely, "Hello, Grandpa Zong!"
Grandpa Zong's face relaxed, and he even seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said: "I am too blind to see the depth of this little brother's magic power."
Yan Nishuang briefly introduced each other, and Bai Lin guessed well. Grandpa Zong has been fighting evil wizards abroad for many years. He is an old minister of the execution department. He has been retired for more than 20 years. If not for this big event, he would not have Ask him to come out.
Without any courtesy, Grandpa Zong opened a body bag on the autopsy table, revealing a horrific and miserable corpse.
A young man's entire head was burned into a pitch-black skeleton. The skin, flesh, and brain were almost completely burned away, leaving only a skull that looked as if it had been splashed with asphalt. It was normal from the neck down, but from the chest cavity A large Y-shaped cut had been made on the abdomen, which must have been closed after forensic dissection. Under normal circumstances, the internal organs would be taken out and stored separately after dissection, so the abdomen was deeply concave.
Bai Lin felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach just looking at it. The dark eye sockets seemed to be staring at him, which made people feel frightened.
However, Bai Lin had also seen the world. He steeled himself, moved closer, and carefully observed the details of the skeleton.
"This fire is indeed burning from the inside out... It's not a fierce fire spell... This kind of spell is unheard of... If it can also track targets and do group damage, then this spell is too powerful!" Bai Lin looked at it while looking at it. road.
Grandpa Zong said: "It is indeed very strange... I have lived in vain for more than ninety years, and this is the first time I have seen this kind of evil magic. I also read through the classics, and then I guessed from a few words that this was more than two hundred years ago. The art of hating victory that was popular in Southeast Asia."
Grandpa Zong continued to introduce: "The art of hating victory, simply put, is to turn resentment into substance. The stronger the resentment, the stronger the power of this evil spell."
Bai Lin murmured: "It doesn't sound like it's from Nanyang, but it sounds like it's from the East... There is a movie called Grudge, which seems to be about turning resentment into a murderous magic... But the caster in the movie is Abilities gained after death..."
Grandpa Zong raised his eyebrows and said: "Are you talking about the Neon Kingdom? During the war years, the Eastern mages fought many times with the Neon mages... Their evil spells are indeed endless, making it difficult for people to guard against, but they have never been seen with such lethality. Although the Sun family is not a powerful mage family, it has over a hundred mage members, which is a powerful force in the world. To be wiped out with just one move is simply tragic!"
Bai Lin pondered, and Yan Nishuang asked: "Grandpa Zong, have you discovered anything? You might as well tell us and let's put it together."
Grandpa Zong pointed at the corpse and said: "This is the tenth corpse. I haven't found out how the fire started. How can I find anything? Where are you? Have you ever found out what the Sun family has?" Enemies or something like that? Or maybe someone can benefit from the destruction of the Sun family?"
Yan Nishuang shook her head helplessly and said: "Three teams of people have been sent to visit these days, and all those with the slightest suspicion have been controlled. After two days and two nights of interrogation, there are a few who have some old and new grudges, but To deal with such a big case, those people have neither the ability nor the courage. The most important thing is that the national economy has been booming in recent years, but the Sun family's industrial development has been declining in recent years, and they still owe a lot of money to others. With less debt, if we talk about the benefits, outsiders will not be able to gain anything at all."
Grandpa Zong spread his hands and said, "Come on, you're working in vain, there's no way out."
At this time, Yan Nishuang saw Bai Lin's thoughtful look and couldn't help asking: "Xiao Lin, what do you think?"
She didn't expect Bai Lin to really help her solve the case. The reason why Bai Lin was asked to participate in the investigation was to exchange information with him. On the other hand, it was to explain her feelings. If she refused If Bai Lin is killed, it is very likely that she will never have a chance to get along with him again. Of course, she will not tell anyone about her little daughter's thoughts.
Bai Lin held his chin and said: "Three doubts. First, I have fought with many dark wizards in Europe. They all need to stare at the target with their eyes and then cast spells, such as the Havada Kedavra and the Cruciatus Curse. Even simple petrification spells and stun spells. I can also do some simple group black magic, but I still need to lock the rough target with my eyes. If it is a long-distance curse, how did the murderer lock so many targets? "
Grandpa Zong’s eyes flashed and he said, “Continue talking.”
Bai Lin said: "Second, why are the deceased all mages, but ordinary descendants of the Sun family are fine? How does the murderer's spell distinguish whether the other person is a wizard or an ordinary person?"
"Thirdly, why commit a crime at a wedding? Does it require so many people to gather together to cast the spell, or is there some other reason? I saw in the movie that even if the cursed person ran to the end of the world, he would be chased and killed by resentment. .”
Yan Nishuang said: "You mean, the reason why the murderer wanted to attack the wedding was to keep all the targets within his sight? So he should have been at the scene at the time!"

Bai Lin nodded and said: "It's most likely like this, otherwise we can't explain his spell-casting logic. There's another problem. We know that the more powerful the magic, the more difficult it is to control it accurately. If the murderer can return such a powerful magic to Being able to control it so accurately must be at the level of a spell master. He cannot be unknown and come and go without a trace. I think he must have used something to assist him in casting spells..."
Under the surprised gazes of Grandpa Zong and Yan Nishuang, Bai Lin summoned the red-eyed Xiu Xiu. Xiu Xiu landed on the dissecting table and began to smell around.
"Is this... Nifu Lei?" Yan Nishuang asked.
"This is a rare mutant that can smell objects containing black magic." Bai Lin explained.
The red-eyed Sniff seemed to dislike the smell of corpses, but because of his loyalty to Bai Lin, he still endured the bad smell and searched for something with the smell of black magic on the corpse.
However, the head of this corpse had been burned to the point of being reduced to a bone shell, and the body had been dissected to nothing. After sniffing and returning in vain, Grandpa Zong waved his hand, sealed the body bag, and flew to the side with the corpse. On the shelf, another corpse that had not been dissected flew over and landed on the dissecting table.
Red-eyed Xiuxiu worked again for five or six minutes, but still had no results.
Bai Lin held his chin and fell into deep thought. At this time, Yan Nishuang said: "Maybe the things left behind are not in the body. Let's go to the physical evidence department to look for it!"
Bai Lin nodded and reached out to grab Xiuxiu. Yan Nishuang naturally stepped forward to hold his other hand and activated the teleportation talisman.
To be fair, Yan Nishuang's teleportation talisman should be more advanced than the ordinary Apparition, because there is no weight loss, overweight, or stomach discomfort after casting the spell, and Bai Lin held her somewhat cold hand. My heart couldn't help but move.
When they opened their eyes, the three of them had already appeared in another building. It was just that the light was dim and the temperature was very low. However, there were many people hurriedly walking back and forth in the corridor. When they saw them, many people They all nodded and shouted: "Mr. Zong, Captain Yan!" and then quickly gave way.
Yan Nishuang took the lead and strode into an office. The sign in front of the office door read "Spell Forensics Department". When Bai Lin walked in and took a look, it was an eye-opener.
From the outside, it looks like an inconspicuous office of more than a dozen square meters, but inside it is surprisingly big. A row of counters runs across the middle of the room. There are many benches near the door for people to queue up and rest. On the other side of the counter, there is a huge A folding space like a book, with dozens of staff working inside.
When he saw Yan Nishuang, a staff member immediately came forward to say hello. After Yan Nishuang reported the case number, he took out a very short magic wand and waved it. The space behind the counter was like a huge book being opened and flipped through. When he arrived at the target page, he opened it, and suddenly a picture composed of countless objects was displayed in front of Bai Lin.
Bai Lin took a look and realized why the Sun family's yard was so clean, as if nothing had happened. Only then did he see that the Physical Evidence Department had moved all the removable things in the yard here. , and all the items remained in their original positions. They were all suspended in mid-air, as if sealed by an invisible piece of ice, just like when the execution department arrived at the Sun family compound.
The ground and background were also projected into photos from that time. However, the pixels of this era were not very high, but the murder scene could be completely restored. The positions of the deceased were replaced by red humanoid models, and there were also several blue models. It is the survivors who should be represented.
Bai Lin walked closer and looked at it. Most of the items were tableware, wine utensils, dishes, garbage from the wedding banquet, as well as some personal belongings of the guests, even two eldest brothers. After being magically sealed by the Physical Evidence Department, the scene can be restored at any time to look for physical evidence. This is much easier to use than ordinary people's forensic work.
Yan Nishuang nodded to the staff, who immediately came over and waved the wand at the three of them. Bai Lin felt his hands tighten. When he lowered his head, he saw that a layer of rubber covers was automatically put on his hands, feet and head. They also wore masks on their faces to prevent them from contaminating the evidence.
The three of them walked in carefully. Bai Lin held the red-eyed Xiu Xiu to prevent it from touching those items, but Xiu Xiu had already entered working mode and began to smell left and right.
Sealed items will be like being frozen or time has stopped. It is difficult to volatilize substances to the outside, so the smell is very weak and it is difficult to smell it.
But just when Bai Lin was about to give up, Xiu Xiu suddenly became excited. When Bai Lin saw it, Xiu Xiu shouted at a pile of empty wine jars placed in the corner. Bai Lin was startled and quickly took Xiu Xiu with him. Walking over, Xiu Xiu twisted his whole body against the pile of wine jars. If Bai Lin let go, he would definitely pounce on him.
Bai Lin touched Xiu Xiu's head, took out a Galleung from his pocket, then mixed some magic power into it, and handed it to Xiu Xiu as a reward. Xiu Xiu grabbed the gold coin and took it back to the illustrated book with satisfaction.
"There's something wrong with these wines!" Bai Lin said.
At this time, the staff on the side said: "The wine has been tested and it is not poisonous!"
Yan Nishuang said: "Maybe it's not poison, but a magic mark. People who drank these wines naturally became targets. At the wedding banquet, except for a few teenagers and children, most people drank wine, so they all became The target of sorcery."
Mr. Zong immediately directed the staff to re-test all the wine jars, wine utensils, and remaining wine collected at the scene, but soon the staff came to report: "These wines are brewed by the Sun family's magic." It has a lot of magic flavor in it, so you can’t tell if it has been tampered with, but it has been tested and is harmless.”
At this moment, a ringing sound came from Yan Nishuang's small leather bag. Yan Nishuang took out a smaller mobile phone from it. As soon as the phone was connected, Huang Chenghua's voice came from the other end: "Captain Yan, something happened!"
Bai Lin was shocked, maybe something happened to Yu Qian and the others. He was not worried about Yu Qian. Of course she would not take the initiative to get into trouble because of her gentle personality. But Qiqi was different. If she encountered any unexpected situation, she would She just "does it if she doesn't accept it".
But Huang Chenghua on the other end of the phone said: "There is a heavy fog on Yun Lake, and there is thunder in the fog. It seems that someone is casting a large spell."
