MTL - My Summons Are Weird-Chapter 90 If you say you're suspect, you're suspect
"name."
"Lu Yu, next to me is my servant Sigrid."
"What about this black fog and white fog?"
"Oh, this is our travel companion, mist demon. This is the summoning thing on my shoulder."
"Summon, then you are a magician, right?"
The guards who recorded half of it raised their heads and looked at Lu Yu for a long time, and then asked, "What are you doing here in the capital?"
Lu Yu told the truth: "On the way to travel, take a break and prepare to collect some materials here."
The guard continued to record, and nodded to Lu Yu after checking with his companions.
"Seeing that you are an outsider, I will remind you that there have been murderers committing crimes in the capital recently, and it's not too peaceful, so try not to run out of the city at night. It's not a big problem to be misunderstood by us, but it's a big problem to be targeted by murderers. already."
The same scene also happened in the pub where Lu Yu stayed. I don't know how many people were quarreled just after washing up and laying down to rest.
After the guards left, the proprietor of the tavern brought fruit bowls to the troubled travelers who were checked three times a day.
Many guests arrived at the capital of the Grand Empire after a long day of exhaustion. Everyone wanted to rest for a while, but the three waves of surprise inspections made everyone sleepless.
The guests eating the fruit plate simply sat in the tavern and complained about the bad things they encountered today.
"The detailed registration of entering the city gave me a headache. I'm just a small businessman. They had to tell me about the recent trajectory of my actions, and they asked me if there was a way to prove it... How can I prove this?"
"I'm pretty much the same. At first, I thought it was these guards who wanted to seek benefits, but they didn't accept them at all. They even invited the magician in the town to ask me for a while... Fortunately, the magician finally let me go, otherwise I would Go to jail tonight."
"I heard that there are knights stationed in Nancheng and Dongcheng, so the guards will not move in a mess. It seems that you are all unlucky who have walked through the remaining two doors."
"Okay, so what if you come in? After three waves of inspections after the evening, you will be picked up to answer questions after taking a shower... Aren't they doing useless work by screening like this?"
Lu Yu and Sigrid ate the fruit plate and looked at the two notices in their hands.
One is the murderer that Lu Yu had heard about in Keys City. The Imperial Knights, one of the three major knights of the Grand Empire, offered a reward for clues about the murderer. According to the authenticity of the clues, they provided generous rewards. .
Through the information collection after arriving in the capital, Lu Yu also basically had some understanding of this murderer.
The first time the murderer committed the crime was about last spring. The people didn't know much about the first victim. They only knew that it was a teenager. The death condition was extremely tragic. When the body was found, a village woman was frightened.
Because this young man is a homeless person and his identity information is unknown, the relevant personnel of the Grand Empire handling the case simply reported a gangster vendetta to fool him.
Perhaps those who dealt with the case at the time would not have thought that this was just the beginning.
Since the first victim, the murderer has killed 16 people in a row since then, and some details that have been concealed by the official have finally leaked out.
The bodies of each victim were mutilated, and the missing parts could not be found from the scene, and it was suspected that they were taken away by a murderer.
According to reports, the only thing the victims had in common was that they were all under the age of 20.
Victims were of different races, and no one ethnic group was killed.
Putting down the murderer's reward notice, another notice in Lu Yu's hand should be the reason why the capital of King Gelang is heavily guarded.
The Elf Kingdom and the Grand Empire will stop the state of war that has lasted for nearly twenty years. In order to release their sincerity, the kings of both sides will visit the other's capital.
The Elf King will arrive in the Grand Royal Capital in a few days, and the murderer in the capital last committed a crime half a month ago. If a vicious crime happened at the time of the meeting between the King and the King, and the whole party of the Elf Kingdom heard about it. , that loses the face of the country.
Lulutis can understand the logic of what they did, but the problem is... the murderer is rumored all over the street, don't people from the Elf country come here to ask a little about it?
Lu Yu didn't want to explain too much, he had seen this kind of operation a lot.
When the people of the Elf Country travel, they are afraid that they will not see a few normal people. The streets are full of support, and there is peace, so they will naturally have face.
Whether it is the murderer or the restoration of normal relations between the two countries and the opening of the border, it has nothing to do with Lu Yu, a passer-by.
After eating the fruit plate, Lu Yu stretched and yawned and was about to go back to his room to sleep, but there was movement outside the tavern.
The guard, who had just left, came to the tavern again, and the guest who had not returned to his room sighed, ready to be questioned again.
Unexpectedly, the guards did not ask questions this time, but took out a crystal ball and swayed it in front of each guest, and even the drinkers who came to consume.
When he came to Lu Yu, the crystal ball flickered a few times.
The captain of the guard saw the condition of the crystal ball, stepped forward and said to Lu Yu, "The magician is right, come with us."
Lu Yu was puzzled, the other party's posture was obviously aimed at the identity of the magician.
But the guard who came just now registered his identity as a magician and didn't say much, what's the trouble?
"This white fog and black fog are both your summons, right, hurry up to disperse them, and are not allowed to carry them."
In the face of the other party's request, Lu Yu didn't have a hard head. After all, it seems that the other party is also a routine, except that the tone of the law enforcement is not very good, and there is nothing serious.
Give Sigrid all the luggage and tell them what to eat and what to drink.
"You can spend whatever you want when I'm not here, it's a rare opportunity!"
Lu Yu's words made Sigrid wonder whether to laugh or cry.
Seeing that Lulutis wanted to follow him quietly, Lu Yu hurriedly gestured to her.
According to the rules, it can at least ensure that the other party will not have unnecessary misunderstandings. If it is clearly stated that the summoned objects are not allowed to accompany, and Lulutis still follows, then the other party will be able to take advantage of the situation, and things will change.
Being led out of the east gate by the guards, Lu Yu found that there were many magicians like himself who were led out of the city by the guards, and many of them were just like himself, with an unexplained appearance.
The camp appeared in the distance, the flag fluttered.
A pair of wings grew out of a sword, and this pattern was the logo of the Knights of the Wind Feather, one of the three great Knights of the Empire.
Inside the camp, Lu Yu looked left and right, and found that the people in the Fengyu Knights camp were in a hurry, and most of the knights had anxious expressions on their faces.
More and more magicians were gathered together, the number approaching thirty.
And they have been left hanging, and no one has come to explain why they were brought here.
After staying like this until the second half of the night, the sleepy Lu Yu was already a little angry after waiting.
In this case, no one dared to sleep, for fear that there would be a change and it would be too late to respond.
Finally, someone couldn't take it anymore.
A female magician wearing a pointed hat angrily found a knight and roared: "We waited from the first half of the night to the second half of the night, and it's almost dawn, what do you want to do, let us come here for what! "
Sleepy, waiting for hours, no matter how good-tempered people are, they are on the verge of breaking out.
With someone taking the lead, more than 30 magicians stepped forward and asked for an explanation.
Soldiers and knights drew their weapons one after another, archers on the tower prepared, and magicians walked out of the camp.
Just when the magician's rationality collapsed, a dozen people rode horses to the camp.
The first middle-aged man had a scar on his face that almost slanted across his entire face. As soon as he arrived, the soldiers present put away their weapons, and the members of the knights stood at attention.
"Captain Nalin, these are the people."
"Have you confirmed it?"
"It has been confirmed that they are all magicians, and they are all near the crime area."
The head of the group, Nalin, walked in front of the magicians, and his sharp eyes extinguished a lot of the anger rising from the magicians present.
"Not long ago, the murderer committed another crime, right in the capital."
Narin didn't talk nonsense, and paced among the magicians.
"Unlike before, the target of the murderer this time was the daughter of a baron. She was suddenly attacked by the murderer and resisted desperately, but at the same time she was seriously injured. Although she did not see the murderer's appearance clearly, she But the call for help was successful.”
"According to the previous murderer's modus operandi, this lunatic is a magician. Because the baron's daughter called for help in time, the soldiers in the capital quickly blocked the surrounding area, and it was impossible for anyone to escape from Dongcheng District."
Nalin's tone became more and more cold: "And now... all the magicians near the crime scene are here."
While speaking, Radna, the leader of the Imperial Knights, also led his team to the location of the Knights of the Wind Feather.
The blond-haired, monocle-wearing Radna asked the group members to move a chair for him as soon as he arrived, while he himself sat behind Narin, without saying a word, and glanced at the magician present with a livid face.
In this situation, the two knights have already determined that the crazy murderer is among the people present.
Lu Yu was so sleepy that his eyelids were fighting. Even when he heard such explosive news, he couldn't stop yawning.
Compared with the leaders of the two knights, he should be the one who hopes to find out the murderer the most.
It's been almost a night of tossing, killing demons, and going back to sleep by yourself, what could be better than this?
With a clear conscience, Lu Yu sat on the ground and quietly watched the situation change.
It is absolutely impossible for the murderer to stand up and surrender. The two knights are also aware of this, so they began to question the magicians one by one, what they were doing when the incident happened, and who can prove it.
Lu Yu watched the group of people doing useless work here, it was really a big one.
He didn't want to stand out among this group of people, but he could see it clearly. If he didn't say something, he might have to spend the night at the knights station.
Lu Yu raised his hand.
The manager of the Knights in the front row motioned a person to ask what happened after seeing it.
A knight came to the two heads with Lu Yu's words.
"Captain, this magician said that he has something to say to you quietly."
Narin and Radna looked at each other, and Narin nodded slightly to his subordinates.
Before Lu Yu, who was brought to the front of the two captains, had time to say anything, the top of the Knights of the Imperial Knights on the side asked, "Are you going to surrender?"
Lu Yu snorted, cleared his throat, and asked, "Are you two trying to arrest a murderer's imitator, or a murderer?"
"What do you mean?"
"I heard just now that the baron's daughter seems to be a high-level magician, right?" Lu Yu said, "A perverted murderer who kills seventeen people in a row doesn't know the strength of his target, so he can't attack himself rashly. Is the target shot?"
"A murderer with strong anti-reconnaissance ability. Every time he kills, he will first kidnap and kill, and then throw the body. Why did he abandon the original plan for the eighteenth crime and choose to do it on the spot?"
In fact, there is one more thing Lu Yu didn't say.
None of the magicians at the scene had aristocratic status.
Is it that the nobles of Dongcheng have no magician blood, or did they do it deliberately?
Nalin and Radna stared at Lu Yu.
"Magician, I admit that what you said is a bit interesting. There is indeed the possibility of imitating criminals, but how can you conclude that this is not a mistake by the murderer?"
Head Nalin's face was sullen, making the scar even more ugly. He slowly approached Lu Yu and said.
"There was only one first-order magician who had been killed by the murderer before. If he missed a second-order magician, it can be understood that he was unable to satisfy the pleasure of hunting and planned to challenge high difficulty."
"It makes sense, but you are arresting like this, even if there is really a murderer here, what can you do? Do you have evidence?"
The head of the Imperial Knights, Radna, who had been silent for a while, suddenly spoke up.
"Magician, your tone makes me feel that you are the murderer."
"Killing people, escaping sanctions many times, and even being captured by the Knights, but still can get away with lack of evidence, talk to us about details and flaws with a smile, and show off their shrewdness..."
"Do you know that, in my opinion, there is only one person who can quickly judge others as imitators... that is the murderer's deity."
The members of the Imperial Knights who heard Radna's voice came forward to surround Lu Yu.
Nalin, who rubbed his chin and thought about it, discouraged: "Captain Radna, it happened suddenly, I really didn't think much about it, there is indeed the possibility of imitators, we should be careful."
Radna sneered and stood up: "Be careful?"
"The Imperial Knights are an extension of His Majesty's power. We represent His Majesty's will, which is different from Feng Yu and Stars."
"Your Majesty is busy with the meeting with the elf king, the nobles are planning how to welcome the elf family, we should try our best to share their worries~www.novelbuddy.com~ In special times, there is not so much time for us to confirm repeatedly, I will not say He is a criminal, I only say that he has a serious suspicion, I will lock him up for a while, and when the Elf King leaves, his suspicion can be cleared and then released, there is no problem, right?"
"Even if he's not a murderer, we caught the wrong thing and the news is released. Whether it's a real or an imitator, all want to prove that they haven't been caught and commit crimes again, slap us in the face, and we will naturally have a chance to catch him again."
Lu Yu barely understood Radna's logic in shock.
It means that he thinks that he suspects that there are imitators that he is the real murderer.
Although he has no evidence, but because of the sensitivity of time, it doesn't matter if there is no evidence. If he is wronged, he will be wronged. If he happens to lock up the real killer, it will win glory for the country.
It doesn't matter if he catches the wrong one, he wronged Lu Yu, maybe he caught the real killer, and it's fair to him.
This logic comes from the mouth of a knights commander who is directly related to the empire... It's not too surprising.
