Chapter 428 Secret Investigation

"You don't have to apologize for this, Miss Custis. No matter from which angle you look at the Sons of Liberty Association, it can't get rid of the color of gangsters. We don't care what others think. After all, the law is not perfect. As long as there is If society exists, there will inevitably be a soil for gangsters to survive."

Mr. Benny smiled wryly and lit his pipe.

"As for Ms. Miranda, she is indeed a member of our association and the person in charge of the Yalfheim area. The police have already investigated this very clearly, and we have no intention of concealing it."

"When Joan and I were expelling spirits in Snow Manor, we had the honor to meet two senior officials of the Sons of Liberty Association. I remember that they all wore masks. If I guessed correctly, the one with the wolf head The lady in the mask is...?"

Rebecca hesitated to speak, and cast an inquiring look at Teacher Benny.

Teacher Benny nodded slightly.

Joan recalled the experience at Snow Manor that night, and couldn't help frowning.

"If Ms. Miranda is the 'Shadow Dancer' who used to serve the 'Shadow' in the Snow Manor, then with her strength, I don't think there is any prison in Layton Port that can hold her."

"With Sister Miranda's strength, it's really easy to escape from prison, but she just can't do that. If she escapes from prison before the case is clarified, the 'black pot' on her head will never be removed, and That's exactly what Andrew Snow expected."

"Even if there is evidence afterwards that Sister Miranda has nothing to do with the murder, at least she can still be wanted for jailbreak. Even if she can't be caught, her reputation can be completely ruined. Showed off."

Xiao Miao flicked the fluffy tail angrily, and continued: "Sister Miranda has seen through Andrew Snow's sinister intentions, so she has to stay in the prison and wait for the case to turn around. At the same time, A Zhi and I , Teacher Benny also had to run around to track down the real culprit, and try to help Sister Miranda clear her grievances, so that she can be released from prison as soon as possible and restore her reputation."

"Now it seems that this is the only way to go. Can I help you?" Joan asked.

"We want to go to the scene of the crime to investigate, and maybe we can find clues that were neglected by the police. However, the place where the two masters were assassinated was in the arcane laboratory of Leiden Academy. Outsiders like us are not allowed to approach at all. Please help me and try to get us into the lab."

Xiao Miao looked at Qiao An eagerly.

"That's no problem." Joan stood up, "I'll take you to the laboratory right now, and I just want to go to the scene to have a look."

"Wait a minute!" Edward stood up, "In order to avoid any trouble, it's better for Sister Meow, Ah Zhi and Mr. Benny to pretend to be students. Joan, have you prepared the 1st ring of 'Disguise' today?" ?”

"No problem, just leave it to me."

Joan actually didn't prepare the "Disguise Technique" in advance, but it didn't bother him. He directly stimulated the "Sid's mana", and a shining hexagram rose under his feet.

He drew three "Sid's mana" and converted them into three 1st-level spell slots, and blessed Xiaomao, Azhi, and Benny with "disguise" one by one, turning them into students, and the clothes on their bodies were all the same. It became the uniform of Leiden Academy's arcane profession-a robe similar to a short black trench coat.

Thomas and Edward stared straight at their eyes, unable to hold back their curiosity, and asked Joan what spell he had just cast, and why a magic circle emerged from his body, like some kind of spell formation engraved in flesh and blood .

Joan briefly introduced his experience of interacting with the mythical goblin "Sid Liyanan", and the whole story of receiving Sid's mana from Ms. Liyanan.

Edward and Thomas were deeply envious after hearing this, but Rebecca's face was a little strange, and she looked at Joan with a hint of worry that was not noticeable.

Joan, Thomas, and Edward led the way, and Rebecca and Xiao Miao, who was disguised as a student, followed them into the teaching building.

There was a uniformed patrolman standing guard in front of the "wind ladder" leading to the Rawls laboratory, holding an oak baton in his hand. Seeing Joan and the others approaching, he quickly raised his hand to stop them.

"Please stay still, traffic is temporarily prohibited here."

"Mr. Police Officer, we are all students majoring in Austrian law. Master Rawls, who was unfortunately killed a few days ago, is our tutor. Although the tutor is no longer alive, our studies cannot be delayed. We have to go to the laboratory to complete a Question, please accommodate me."

Thomas smiled and handed over his student ID.

"I'm sorry, before the murder case is solved, I must ensure that the crime scene is not damaged—"

The middle-aged police officer sternly refused to interrupt suddenly, because he found that under the student ID card handed over by Thomas, there was still a stack of small glittering coins.

"But having said that, since you are all students of this school, and you are supposed to be young people who keep their own place, I will make an exception and give you half an hour. Be sure to go and come back quickly."

The patrolman skillfully put away the gold coins, looked carefully at the documents, and then returned them to Thomas with a serious warning.

"Your name is Thomas Chap, right? I remember you. If it turns out that the scene of the crime has been damaged, you will be responsible for everything!"

"Don't worry, Mr. Inspector, I promise I won't cause you any trouble." Thomas replied, patting his chest.

The patrolman hesitated, then finally turned and walked away.

Thomas opened the door of the "Wind Elevator", turned his head and gave his companions a wink, and a group of seven people quickly entered the "Wind Elevator", driven by magic power to the top of the tower.

Directly facing the exit of the "air lift" is a corridor leading to the Rawls laboratory. The door of the laboratory room is closed and locked.

Joan took out the key he carried with him, opened the door of the laboratory and walked in.

There was a faint smell of blood in the spacious hall, and there were still blood stains on the ground.

Joan walked to the window and wanted to open the curtains, but hesitated for a moment and decided to keep it as it was so as not to attract attention.

At this moment, a slight breeze lifted the curtains, and he realized that the glass window had been broken.

Gently lifted the curtains and took a look, inadvertently found that there were a few yellow and black spots on the window sill covered with broken glass.

Joan narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at those foreign objects for a long time, turned around and walked to his operating table, opened the drawer, took out a brass tweezers and an empty glass bottle the size of a palm, went back to the window sill, and used the The tweezers picked up the yellow-black foreign matter and exposed it to the sun, then put it into the glass bottle.
