Chapter 303: Stealing From the Inside

Herag picked up the wooden rose and looked at it in his hand.

This rose was carved very delicately, and it can be seen that the carver has extremely exquisite craftsmanship. This flower can be called a work of art.

If there was no purple worm wriggling inside, then this wooden rose would indeed be a good work of art.

In fact, Herag knew that Muse was an Abyss Cultist the first time he saw him.

The strong aura of the Abyss plane on Muse was too obvious in Herag's eyes.

But he couldn't say it, because he couldn't say that Muse was an Abyss Cultist without any basis.

Herag thought again that someone gave Max's wood carving to Amisha, but Amisha did not become an Abyss Cultist, but the servant in her family became an Abyss Cultist.

He quickly guessed whether this servant stole Amisha's birthday gift and was accidentally seduced by the monster in the wood carving and became an Abyss Cultist.

When Herag thought of this, he still did not show any abnormality. Instead, after checking that there was no wood carving in the birthday gift, he basically determined how the incident happened.

In the subsequent questions to Muse, Herag observed Muse's breathing, heartbeat, and eyes, and saw that he was lying, which was almost certain.

Now that this wood-carved rose was found in Muse's house, there was solid evidence that Muse was indeed a cultist of the Abyss.

Herag took the wood-carved rose and turned around and asked: "Muse, how do you explain this wood-carved rose?"

Muse looked at the rose, and her breathing became a little rapid. She stammered and defended: "I... I don't know... Maybe it was... left in there by someone before, and it has nothing to do with me."

"Miss, please step back." Blank immediately protected Amisha to prevent Muse from jumping over the wall and hurting Amisha.

Although Amisha is a formal wizard, and Muse is just an ordinary person

But this was still Blank's subconscious behavior. After confirming that Muse was indeed problematic, the first thing he thought of was to protect the safety of his young lady.

"Muse! I didn't expect you to actually dare to touch my things!" Amisha scolded angrily.

"No... I... I didn't..." Muse was completely panicked at this moment.

His head was like being hit by a heavy hammer, and it had become blank.

Muse knew too well what was going on. Last year, he secretly stole two birthday gifts from Amisha and planned to sell them on the black market to make some money.

He didn't dare to steal more, but only took two small gift boxes.

He didn't dare to take the big box either, because it would be too obvious to take it away, and it was not convenient to take it away.

This wooden rose was in a slender little box. Muse put it in her clothes and stole it without being noticed by anyone.

This was not the first time Muse had done this. She knew that the young lady would not care about the gifts in the warehouse, and she would not be discovered even if she stole some.

But she never expected that she would be discovered this time.

When Blank called him to the warehouse, Muse had not yet realized the seriousness of the problem and thought he was just taking some things.

When he heard that it was last year's birthday gift, Muse's heart skipped a beat and he had a bad feeling.

At this time, he still had a fluke mentality and thought that it might not be for the two things he stole.

But when Herag used his magic to sense and mentioned the word wood carving.

Muse felt as if the sky had fallen in his heart. Since the man in front of him had pointed out that he was looking for the wood carving, he was probably looking for things related to the Abyss Cultists.

Muse knew that through the wood carving, he could communicate with the great beings in the Abyss plane and gain some power from the great beings.

He also knew that such people were called Abyss Cultists and that once they were discovered, they would be dead.

Muse kept praying in his heart, praying that the great gods would bless him and let him escape this disaster.

Until Herag broke the wooden board under the wardrobe and took out the wooden rose, Muse's hope was completely shattered.

Everything was over.

Muse's mind was blank and it took a long time for him to come back to his senses.

When he came to his senses, he found Blank looking at him warily, and Amisha stood behind Blank with her hands on her hips and glared at him.

The young man opposite named Herag was holding a rose in his hand and looking at him with a smile.

Run!

When Muse saw this scene, the first thing he thought of was to run.

If he didn't run, he would die. If he was caught, he would die.

Muse had only this thought in his mind, and he didn't think about how an ordinary person like him could escape from the wizard.

The moment he turned around, he felt his whole body stiff and unable to move.

"Dark Imprisonment." Herag gathered magic power in his hands and directly imprisoned Muse who wanted to escape.

He was very happy now. He didn't expect to catch an Abyss Cultist in the Mori family. This is all contribution points.

Herag took out a test tube, broke the wooden rose in half, clamped the purple worm inside with tweezers, and put the little monster into the test tube.

This monster is ironclad evidence and contribution points.

Amisha saw the purple worm, her face turned pale, and she took a step back involuntarily.

She was somewhat thankful that she had never opened the gift box.

She never expected that such a beautiful rose would contain such a terrible bug.

Amisha was scared when she thought about it.

Herag put the test tube into the space ring, took out the rune stone and sent a message to Prius: "When I was investigating the Mori family, I found that a servant was very likely to be a cultist of the Abyss. I found a monster bug in a wooden rose."

Prius quickly replied: "Very good! Bring the people and things back. I am too busy now to come here in person. How strong is that person? Can he be controlled?"

If the opponent is too strong, Prius will send some reinforcements.

If Herag can solve it himself, he will bring it back by himself, which can also save some manpower.

"It's just an ordinary person, no problem, I'll be back soon." Herag replied.

"Okay, be more careful on the road." Prius instructed.

Herag put down the rune stone and said to Blank: "Ms. Amisha, Mr. Blank, I now suspect that this Muse is a cultist of the Abyss, so I need to take him to the city hall for interrogation."

Because the person is from the Mori family, I still have to say it.

Of course, this was just a notification, not a discussion with them.

Blanc nodded and said, "Understood, I'll drive you right away."

This was about the Abyss Cultists, so Blank didn't dare to delay, let alone stop them.

The Abyss Cultists appeared in the Mori family, and the follow-up would not be so simple. The family would conduct a strict investigation.
