The Death Plan of a Hero of the Empire

Lu Nier took the newspaper, glanced at it, and soon discovered the robbery last night.

"Drunken Night" was robbed, the faceless hero repelled the robbers" roughly describes the process of the robbery, and the content focuses on the so-called "faceless hero", that is, Lu Nier, It is said that the robbers were intercepted and repelled by the mysterious hero, and a lot of losses were recovered for the diners who were in the restaurant at that time...

Afterwards, the robbery case was taken over by the Patrol Bureau. The Patrol Bureau also stated that it would send personnel to investigate the case, and vowed to arrest the criminal within three days and resolutely not let this kind of case happen again.

Alonia also walked out of her room at some point, and looked behind Lu Nier.

"A faceless hero? What is this? A hero without a face?"

"It was said in the news that he wore a faceless white mask, so he was called a faceless hero." Triss explained to Alonia from the side.

"People who wear masks are not serious people." Alonia complained, "The purpose of wearing masks is to cover up their identities. If they are serious people, why do they need to cover up their identities?"

Lanier said he didn't want to talk.

"A white mask without a face?"

Li Jie seemed to have just returned from breakfast, and heard the conversation when she passed by Lu Nier.

She immediately thought of Lu Nier's mask, which was also a white mask with no appearance and only eyes exposed.

But she didn't say anything, sat quietly in her seat, and started to eat breakfast.

After breakfast, the phone rang quickly, and Alonia answered the phone.

Alonia usually has a reluctant expression when answering the phone, but she still records the task content seriously.

Because the task content often needs to be repeated and confirmed with the investigator on the opposite side, so as not to make mistakes.

However, today Alonia's expression changed from being casual when she just answered the phone, and gradually became serious and dignified. It is obvious that this mission is quite special.

After Alonia finished speaking and put down the phone, Lu Nier couldn't help asking.

"Captain, what's the mission today?"

"A robbery, a robbery about strange objects."

"Wonderful thing?!"

"Let's go, say on the road."

After walking out of the investigation bureau, the three got into the carriage, and Alonia began to talk about the mission.

"Today's mission is to investigate a robbery at the Magical Object Theater."

"What is the Theater of Strange Objects?" Luneil asked, this was the first time he had heard of it.

"The Strange Object Theater is similar to ordinary performance drama, but the effect of strange objects is added to make the play more special and novel. There are also natural wonders, but these natural wonders are all passed through the management department of strange things. The ones that have been reviewed and identified are all harmless strange objects."

In Estonia's legal regulations, as long as it is a natural wonder, such a thing must be handed over to the investigation bureau for review and appraisal, and after judging whether it is harmful, the investigation The Bureau chooses to contain or destroy, or return.

However, this rule basically means that there is no such rule. People who own strange objects will basically not take the initiative to send them to the investigation bureau.

But like some industries that openly rely on strange objects for revenue, they have to be sent to the Bureau of Investigation for verification and identification. Otherwise, as long as they let the Bureau of Investigation know, it is a crime and they will be admitted to the bureau for free accommodation.

Most of the strange objects that can be returned by the investigation bureau are useless and can only be used as "toys" for entertainment.

"What was robbed in this robbery?" Lunier asked.

"The strange things, the strange things that the troupe used to perform." Alonia replied, "There are still several, this kind of thing is not a trivial matter, although most of the strange things that can be released by the investigation bureau are not dangerous , but strange things are strange things after all, this kind of thing is very unreasonable, maybe the bad guys will figure out some new usage to do evil."

The location of the theater is not very far from the investigation bureau, and it takes about ten minutes to arrive.

When Lu Nier got off the carriage, he saw a building in front of him whose door was covered by a curtain and whose signboard said "Wonderful Paradise".

"It's here."

Alonia walked in first, and Lunier and Li Jie followed.

Walking through a slightly narrow and dark aisle, the space suddenly opened up, just like a movie theater, with a spacious stage at the front and rows of seats underneath.

"Are you investigators?" An old man dressed in weird but gorgeous colors saw Lu Neil and the others, and took the initiative to greet them, "My name is Fisher, and I'm the owner of this troupe."

"Hello, we are here to investigate the case of the robbery of the strange object." Alonia said, "Can you tell me the specifics of the incident?"

"No problem at all."

Fisher nodded, and then began to tell.

"The thing is like this. Yesterday our troupe was on vacation. There was no one in the theater, but there was still a security guard. Usually, our troupe's strange objects are kept in a room. Only I have the key to that room. Yesterday morning's At that time, the security guard guarding the theater was knocked unconscious by the robbers and tied up, and then some of our theater’s strange objects were robbed, and I didn’t find out until this morning when I came to the theater, so I quickly reported it.”

"Wait, didn't you say that you are the only one who has the key to the room where the strange objects are stored?" Lu Nier asked.

"Yes, but the robber, he didn't use the key, but directly smashed the door and forced his way in..."

"What is the strange thing that you were robbed of?" Alonia asked.

"There are three pieces in total, [Activated Puppet Button] [Magic Gift Box] [Luminescent Clothes]..."

"What are the effects?"

"[Activated puppet buttons] look like ordinary clothes buttons, but if they are attached to the puppet, the puppet can move by itself and follow some simple instructions. There are six buttons in total, all of which are lost... [Magic Gift Box] It looks like an ordinary cardboard gift box, but it is very hard, about this size, as long as you put an item in it, this item will be replaced with something similar in appearance nearby, but there is a distance Restriction, the last [Luminescent Clothing] looks like an ordinary white coat, but if it is illuminated with light, it can absorb light and release various colors of light according to the wearer's wishes..."

Fisher roughly described the three strange objects in one breath. When talking about the gift box, he gestured with a hand that was about the size of an adult's head.

The three strange objects are all of little practicality. They may be useful in special situations, but they are also very limited.

"Take me to the scene to see." Alonia said.

"it is good."

Fisher responded and hurriedly walked ahead to lead the way.

Following Fisher, the three of them soon arrived at the scene of the crime, which was the room where the strange objects were stored.

As Fisher said, the house was violently damaged, the lock was broken, and a violin that was broken in two fell on the ground next to it.

"The prisoner should have smashed it with this, right?" Alonia picked up the violin.

"Yes, this violin is also a prop for our troupe's band to perform."

Alonya put down the violin, then walked into the door, and began to observe the things in this room.

Strange objects are destined to be rare. There are glass cabinets in this room, and there are only a few rare objects in the glass cabinets. However, three of the glass cabinets were smashed by someone. His strange objects were also taken away, obviously those three strange objects.

"Strange..." Alonya looked around and searched the room carefully.

Lu Nier also felt very strange, since there were several strange objects in this room, since they were going to rob them, why only three were taken.

"It doesn't look like it's for money." Alonia said, she checked and found no special traces, "There are so many strange objects here, and there are two or three portable ones among the remaining strange objects , if you want to sell it, the price will definitely not be low, but the criminal just stole those three pieces."

When it comes to stealing strange objects, or this kind of strange objects, it is generally associated with stealing for money, because this kind of strange objects have been identified by the investigation bureau, and being released often means that their The abilities and effects are entertaining.

"Call the security guard that day, I have something to ask him."

"Ok."

Fisher responded, turned around and went out, and returned with a person in a short time.

"Hello investigators, I am Pete, the security guard of the troupe."

Lu Nier took a look at the security guard. He was tall and burly, but in terms of body size, most people were definitely not opponents, and he was relatively strong.

"Have you seen the prisoner clearly?" Alonia asked.

"No, he only showed his eyes, he was wrapped tightly, he was wearing a black hood, and he was wearing a black fur coat..."

"Wait, is the person you're talking about fat?" Luneil asked.

"No." Pete shook his head, "He's not fat, he's thinner, he's a little taller, and his waistline is about the same as yours."

The reason why Lunier asked this question was because he heard Pete's appearance description, and he thought of the robber he met yesterday, who also had a black hood and a fur coat, but the robber he met yesterday was very bloated.

"Did he ever talk to you?"

"Yes...he asked me where I kept the strange objects..." Pete hesitated for a moment, but still said it.

"How did you answer? What did his voice sound like?"

"I told him the location... But I can't blame me, I had no choice at the time..." Pete's expression was a little uneasy, "The voice is a man's voice, but the tone is changed, it's like talking with your throat down, very weird .”

"How did he beat you?" Alonya continued to ask.

"Fist! His skill is quite good. Although I have practiced martial arts for a while, I am not his opponent at all, and his strength is not weak."

"Do you have any clues?"

"It's gone... He knocked me down, asked me where I was, gagged me, tied me up, and went to the room where the strange objects were stored. After that, I only heard the sound of the door being smashed, and then I saw him I left with a strange object, and then I was discovered by the boss..."

Alonya didn't continue to ask, but Lunier asked another question aloud.

"Is that the strange sound you said?"

He also changed his voice, imitating the voice of the robber he met yesterday.

"Yes, it's very similar to your current pronunciation." Pete nodded affirmatively.

"I see."

After that, Alonia didn't ask any other questions, and called the two team members aside to discuss.

"As before, you guys first talk about your own opinions."

"I'll talk about it later, Li Jie will talk about it first." Lu Nier said.

"Me?" Li Jie blinked her eyes and told her own opinion, "Okay, let me say first, I think this prisoner should steal strange things first, it can't be for money, because if he wants money, he should Take away all the strange things in this room, instead of taking only three. The three strange things are placed in different positions and not adjacent to each other, but the prisoner took these three, which shows that he has a purpose. The three strange objects were taken away decisively, and what's more... I think this case should not be committed by the insiders of the troupe, because the prisoner asked Pete about the location of the room where the strange objects were placed. You should be very familiar with the house of things, and you won’t make so many inquiries.”

Alonia was a little surprised, she didn't expect Li Jie to be able to think of this to this extent, which was pretty much in line with her inference.

"Where's Lunier? Why did you ask those questions just now? Did you find anything else?" Alonia asked.

"There are some." Lu Nier thought for a while, and said, "Actually, I went out for dinner last night, and I went out for dinner with a friend. The two of us went to a restaurant, and that restaurant was robbed at that time... "

"Dinner with friends...two people?" Li Jie was a little confused, and this plot made her feel a little familiar.

Since Alonia knew about it a long time ago, she was not surprised.

"You mean, the robber you met at the restaurant is very similar to this strange object robber?"

"Yes! They are also black-headed leather coats." Lu Nier said, "And the strange sound I imitated just now is also the sound of the robber. Except for the different body, they are basically the same person, and in terms of body, I think he should have been thinner in the first place, and the reason why he looks a little bloated is because of the thick clothes on his body."

This can also explain why when Lunier hit him, it felt like hitting cotton.

"So that's the case." Alonia said, "What I want to say is similar to yours, so let's make a summary. This prisoner is very skilled, and there is a high probability that the stealing of strange things is not for money, and there is a high probability that it is not an insider of the troupe who committed the crime." , Judging from his theft of the three strange objects, it shows that he had premeditated it, and he knew the effects of the three strange objects. It is possible that someone related to this troupe committed the crime. If the news of Lu Nier If it is true, then he may have gone to a restaurant to rob on the night when he robbed the strange object..."

"Wait, Lu Neil saw the robber who was suspected to be the same person in the restaurant. What did he rob?" Li Jie asked suddenly.

"Money, he robbed the customer's belongings." Runier replied.

Li Jie felt a little strange.

"If the restaurant robber that Lu Nier saw was the same person as this strange object robber, if he was doing it for money, there is no need to rob the strange object in the morning and then go to the restaurant at night, just take the strange object in the morning It’s okay to just sell it for money, isn’t it? Since he purposefully selected three strange objects, it shows that he has a certain understanding of the value of strange objects.”

"Maybe it's because he didn't sell it? After all, these rare items are stolen goods."

"But why did he rob the strange objects in the morning and rob them at night? Did he use the strange objects in the robbery?" Li Jie continued to ask.

"I'm not sure about this, but his figure is much fatter and bloated than the security guard described, as if he was wrapped in several layers of thick clothes, not that he is so fat." Lu Nier hesitated, He didn't say anything about his fight with the robber.

Alonya watched the question and answer between the two with great interest. It was the first time for her to see Li Jie actively asking questions related to the case, and she was even a little relieved.

"But it's just like, isn't it?" Li Jie asked back, "Although they have many similarities and similarities, there is no conclusive evidence between them that they are the same person, right?"

"Yes."

"So it's possible that they just happened to be dressed the same, and their accents are a bit similar. In other words, they are dressed in such a way that they belong to the same organization or a gang member's standard attire, and they are not definitely the same person, right?"

"indeed."

"Which restaurant did you and that friend dine at?"

"Drunk Night, what's wrong with this?" Lu Nier was a little puzzled.

"It's nothing, I'm done asking." After finishing speaking, Li Jie stopped talking.

"..." Alonia, who was watching, saw something was wrong.

"Hey, anyway, let's stop standing still. Indeed, the restaurant robber that Lu Nier encountered may not be this robber. Let's focus on the latest clues to investigate. Lu Nier, go ask the neighbors. Are there any suspicious people in the residents recently, Li Jie, you can ask the troupe members if they have any clues, as for me, I will go to the black market to see if there is any news of selling strange things, do you have any objections?"

"No." "Me neither."
