Chapter 20: The Real Purpose (Please Collect and Recommend)
Feeling that Wenger's mood was almost stable, Kai immediately asked: "Can you tell me who Morgana has had conflicts with recently?"
This is the most common sentence during investigation and questioning, because in many cases, the murderer did not commit the crime after planning for a long time, but more impulsively. This situation is generally called a crime of passion.
This refers to a crime in which the perpetrator instantly loses his reason, becomes psychologically unbalanced, and occurs due to a change of thought under a specific time, space, environment, and condition. Most of these crimes have no premeditation and planning process, but they are often reckless and have the characteristics of suddenness, extreme recklessness, high harm, and great regret after the crime is committed. More than 90% of these criminal suspects have no criminal record. In other words, they are ordinary people.
Of course, the situation with Morgana in front of him should not be like this. Kai asked just in case. What if the man had a conflict with Morgana and got excited? If this kind of thing is not known in advance, it will be easy to ignore it.
Wenger didn't even think about it and answered directly: "No! Everyone likes the princess. The princess is also very nice and will never conflict with others."
It was an expected answer, and Kai knew it. I'm just asking just in case. Kai has been fully aware of Morgana's reputation in Camelot City this month. This girl is liked by everyone, even the aunt who sells vegetables is full of praise for her. Morgana knows how to be polite and is polite to everyone. She never bullies others and often helps some disadvantaged people in the city. She is definitely an angel on earth.
"Then do you know what you want to hurt Morgana? Anyone, even a wrong look. Don't rush to answer me. Remember it carefully before talking." Kai said word by word, his speaking speed Displeased, even whispering. Just to avoid Wenger being nervous.
After Wenger heard this, he immediately recalled it seriously, but after thinking about it for a long time, he still shook his head. As mentioned above, Morgana is almost an angel. Who would harm her?
Seeing Wenger's response, Kai immediately looked at King Uther and others.
"Where is your Majesty? Do you know? And Arthur, think about it carefully. →"
King Uther was a little impatient, but for the sake of his daughter, he still thought about it, and then said: "Morgana is an angel, no one will hurt her. To put it bluntly, everyone in this city wants me dead. There are many people, but no one would harm an angel!"
Arthur also shook his head, he could not imagine that anyone would hurt Morgana.
Kai nodded and said: "Then the motive is unclear. Morgana came to the palace when she was a few years old and has not had much contact with the outside world, so she can basically rule out revenge. Moreover, Morgana has no financial dealings with the outside world. It can't be because of money. But the murderer's actions were obviously premeditated, and his target was Morgana from the beginning! So why was it? "
Kai didn't care about other people's reactions, but said to himself: "What is the purpose of hurting Morgana? If you really want to attack Camelot, there is no need to hurt Morgana. Her death will not affect kingdom."
This is not to disparage Morgana, it is fact. The king of this kingdom is King Uther and his successor is Arthur. Morgana's significance to the entire kingdom is very limited. She is only King Uther's adopted daughter. Even Kai's succession order is higher than Morgana. To put it bluntly, Morgana's death will at most make King Uther and Kay and Arthur were sad for a while, nothing more. The murderer did so many things, so naturally he didn't just want to make them sad for a while.
"Is it possible that it's because of emotional problems?" Kai turned to look at King Uther and the others.
Faced with Kai's question, King Uther felt extremely uncomfortable, because Kai was so calm, so calm that he was a bit cold-blooded, as if what they were talking about was not Morgana, but someone else. They couldn't understand how Kai could be so calm, not even a little excited, and even talk to them without changing his face about why others wanted to hurt Morgana.
But fortunately, Kai had this kind of virtue from a long time ago and was extremely calm at all times, so although they felt a little uncomfortable, they still thought about it along with Kai's question. →
Then everyone shook their heads firmly.
"Impossible! Morgana has been waiting for you all this time and has never been too close to anyone. It can't be a relationship issue!" King Uther said with an ugly face. He now doubts his previous thoughts. Will Morgana really be happy if she follows Kai? Kai was just too calm. This is not the advantage of being a sweetheart!
Of course Kai knew what they were thinking, but he didn't care. Because now he must stay calm. Panic and anger are never the way to solve problems. Only reason is the way to solve all problems.
And things are not so bad that Kai will lose his cool. Others may not know it, but Kai can see it clearly. There is a force in Morgana's body that resists the erosion of the curse. Kai doesn't know what this force is. , but he can feel that this power is very powerful and harmless to Morgana!
Besides, even if the worst happens in the end, Kai will have a way to deal with it. Don't think that Kai has really just been traveling for the past ten years!
"I don't think so either, so the question becomes, the murderer has no grudge against Morgana, and may not even have any intersection, so what is his purpose? Moreover, he deliberately hid his whereabouts and didn't want us to know that it was him. Why is he doing this?"
Kai quickly went through all the information in his mind and found that after eliminating all possibilities, there were only two possibilities left. One is that the murderer committed the crime randomly! He randomly chose a target and then committed the crime. This kind of criminal is the most hated by all investigators. They may have no motive at all, but simply want to commit a crime. Of course, correspondingly, this kind of criminal is actually very rare. At least Kai has been a policeman for seven years and has never encountered one.
Because the purpose and motivation always dominate people's behavior, this is logic. Lunatics without logic are rare everywhere. So this possibility is very low. Then there is only one possibility!
After Kai's spirit reached 40 points, his thinking speed can be said to be amazingly fast. This series of thinking was completed almost in an instant.
"I can think of only one possibility. That is, the real purpose of the murderer is not Morgana!"
No one expected that Kai suddenly said such a sentence. A group of people looked at Morgana lying on the bed, and then looked at Kai, feeling a little puzzled. Gaius seemed to know something.
Kai didn't care about their reaction, but asked Gaius very seriously: "Gaius, I hope you can answer my question honestly! Do you have any way to cure Morgana! I mean any way!"
Gaius looked at Kai, and now he understood Kai's meaning better. So he said very frankly: "No... The best I can do is to ensure that Morgana does not get worse in the next few days. As for the solution, I'm sorry, I don't have any way..."
After that, Gaius bowed slightly to King Uther to express his apology.
At this time, King Uther would not blame Gaius. After all, this was caused by witchcraft. If Gaius really wanted to be responsible, it would be a bit far-fetched. So King Uther waved his hand as a response. And as a king, King Uther seemed to have come to his senses at this time.
"That's interesting. The murderer even figured out that Gwen could bring the flowers to Morgana, so it's impossible that he didn't know about Gaius's existence. Gaius came back yesterday, but he was not low-key at all. Everyone knows that the king held a banquet for him to welcome Gaius back. Knowing that Gaius, a master of medical skills, was here, he dared to make Morgana like this. It seems that he is very confident in himself and thinks he will never reveal his flaws." Kai said, touching his chin.
Arthur seemed to be listening to a book of heaven, and didn't understand what they were talking about. So he interrupted and said, "What flaws? Witchcraft? Don't we know it?"
Kai looked at his silly brother a little speechlessly. He was still so ignorant until now. What should he do in the future?
King Uther also understood Kai's meaning at this time. The murderer's target was not Morgana at all, at least not just Morgana! Kai's analysis before was very clear that the murderer used witchcraft! In Camelot, a wizard appeared, and he came with bad intentions. So there is no need to guess the murderer's purpose. Over the years, King Uther has made many enemies outside because of magic and witchcraft. Some evil wizards want to destroy Camelot.
On the other hand, a wizard who dares to attack the royal family will really only target a princess who actually means little to the entire king? How is it possible! No matter what, among the wizards, King Uther's hatred is higher than Morgana by an unknown percentage point.
And, although Kai didn't say a word, King Uther still understood. That is, if the murderer really wanted to kill Morgana, he didn't have to wait here until they were helpless! All they see now is Morgana's corpse! Since Morgana can be unconscious without anyone noticing, is it difficult to kill Morgana directly? Anyway, judging from the current situation, it is even easier to kill Morgana directly!
His target must be King Uther and Arthur! Because if any of these two people gets into trouble, it will shake the entire kingdom. Then the murderer took so much trouble to deal with Morgana, and there was only one purpose, that is, to get close to King Uther and Arthur!
It is also because of this that Morgana's true situation must not be leaked.
So the murderer must be very confident that Gaius can't see anything strange, and Morgana must not be killed! Otherwise, King Uther will be alert, and the murderer's plan will fail. After all, after so many years of hunting down wizards, King Uther can still live well, and naturally has his own trump card.
"Learn from Kai! Arthur!" King Uther felt tired when he saw his stupid son. After all, it was so obvious that he was still ignorant and insensitive. But after all, he was his own son, so King Uther was willing to teach him more, so he told his guess again.
"...If Kai didn't find out that this was caused by witchcraft, and Gaius knew nothing about Morgana's situation, what do you think we would do?" King Uther asked after telling his guess again. This is also a test for Arthur.
At this time, Arthur also understood what Kai meant by his previous weird talk. It turned out that the murderer had been targeting King Uther or him from the beginning! Morgana was just implicated.
