Identify by the butt?

It's a rare method indeed.

Wu Heng continued to ask: "Did you ask the mistress if she has any suspects or any enemies recently?"

"We asked, the deceased went to the island to meet this mistress, but we don't know much. We also asked the guards and servants, but there is no clear evidence so far." Xilagui glanced at him, "So, let me ask you, an upright necromancer, if there is any way."

Solving cases in this world is actually quite difficult.

There is no surveillance, fingerprints cannot be extracted, and there is not enough manpower and financial resources to investigate.

Perhaps there are some props or oddities that can aid in the investigation, but they are relatively few in number.

If there is no clear direction or target within a few days, it will be difficult to catch the person.

Wu Heng met the other person's gaze.

There was a look of anticipation in the eyes of the blonde elf girl.

Perhaps it was his first case as a deacon, so he took it more seriously.

"Have!"

"Really?" Xi Lagui's eyes lit up.

"Murderer, did you leave any items behind?" Wu Heng asked.

Xilagui frowned, "Assassination, how can anything be left behind?"

"Anything, even if it was from the murderer."

Xilagui thought for a moment and took out half a stick of incense from her space ring. "Will this work? Lighting the incense can blend the smell in the room and cover up the bloody smell."

Only the last section of the incense stick is left burning.

If we delay any longer, I'm afraid the incense will all burn out.

"I'm not sure either. Let's see if it works. Come with me." Wu Heng stood up and walked out of the room.

Take Xi Lagui upstairs with you.

Open a room.

Inside the room, the Skeleton Prophet was sitting on a chair. As the two came in, he turned his head slightly.

Xilagui frowned.

Look carefully at the shape of the skeleton to determine its identity.

It always feels familiar, but not quite sure.

"What should we do next?" Xilagui asked in a low voice from behind.

"come over!"

Sheila came closer.

Wu Heng handed the small piece of incense to the Skeleton Prophet, "Help her find out who the owner of this incense is and whether he is involved in a murder case."

The Skeleton Prophet placed the burning incense on the table with one hand and grabbed Xilagui's arm with the other hand.

The latter's expression froze.

Just as he was about to ask Wu Heng, his pupils suddenly became blank.

It was as if I opened my eyes and entered a dream.

After a while, the Skeleton Prophet released her arm.

Xilagui's pupils refocused, and her face was full of surprise.

Look at the skeleton.

I also know whose body this is.

After a brief moment of surprise, he looked at Wu Heng again, "I found him. He was eating in the tavern. So arrogant! I'll go catch him and tell you when I get back."

After saying this, he walked out in a hurry without waiting for Wu Heng to reply.

He quickly left with the two team members who were watching the armored vehicle in the courtyard.

Minnie came out of the kitchen with a plate of cut fruit in her hand.

"Why did the deacon leave?"

"I'm investigating the case, so I'll leave now."

"Oh! Then you eat it, master." Minnie handed him the cut fruit.

……

Black Crow's Nest Tavern, in a private room.

The thief, wearing leather armor and with slightly dark skin, was leaning against the window and looking outside. There was a huge travel backpack in the corner.

If you stick your head out, you can see the location of the port.

There are members of the association who ask the identities of people boarding the ship.

"Treasure Island is nothing more than that, a bunch of trash."

He said with disdain, sat back at the table and ate the food on it.

The whole thing went more smoothly than expected.

When the association members arrived, he was also standing among the crowd.

Those people only questioned the merchant's guards and servants and paid no attention to him.

As long as he gets the reward promised to him, he can leave by boat.

By then, the whole thing will have nothing to do with me.

"Shit Imiro, shit necromancer."

"If I had known it was so simple, I wouldn't have had to prepare for it for so long."

He muttered to himself while eating.

The rumors about this place were so weird that he didn't dare to take any action.

Thinking about it now, it seems a little ridiculous.

Ta Ta Ta Ta~!

Suddenly, there were sounds of footsteps approaching quickly outside the door.

The man immediately became alert and ran to the window.

Bang~!

The door of the private room was kicked open.

The man didn't bother to look any further, he just picked up his backpack and jumped out of the window.

While landing.

Several figures from all around rushed over.

Without waiting for him to stand firmly, he was pushed to the ground, and all his weapons and backpack were taken away.

Xilagui walked to the window and looked down.

The team members downstairs shouted, "We caught the man. There's a head in the backpack."

"Tie him up and take him back."

The members tied the man up.

After Xilagui and his men came out of the tavern, they walked towards the association together.

"Deacon, the head belongs to that Chamber of Commerce representative. I can recognize him."

"This time the arrest was too quick. It took less than half a day."

"Yes, Deacon Xilagui's deduction was really accurate. He even figured out where he escaped from."

Xilagui sat in the carriage, listening to the discussions of several people.

……

In the afternoon, Xilagui came to the manor again.

Said: "The man has been caught. According to his confession, he was hired by the mistress's husband to kill someone. Now the husband has also been arrested."

Wu Heng was stunned. "That's the mistress who provided the information about the birthmark on the buttocks?"

"Yes, it's her. After the businessman's representative came to the island, his mistress didn't return home. Her husband couldn't stand it, so he hired a killer." Xi Lagui explained.

Listen to the entire case.

Wu Heng didn't know what to say.

It's quite dramatic, and feels a bit like a scene from a movie.

Xilagui nodded. She was also quite surprised when she got this answer during the interrogation.

After much investigation, it was finally found that the murder was caused by an emotional entanglement.

After explaining the case, Xilagui's expression became more serious. She said, "Now that you are the island owner, you will basically not be involved in such cases in the future. I want to discuss with you about handing over the 'Prophet's Skull' to me to help the association handle some cases."

Hearing her say this, Wu Heng raised his eyebrows slightly.

Now, I am just a level 18 skeleton.

It's also a treasure.

But what Xi Lagui said is not actually correct. According to the utilization rate, I will have fewer opportunities to come into contact with cases in the future, and I will have more time to deal with various matters at the association.

However, Wu Heng also has his own enemies.

Secret Order, Divine Punishment Sect.

Moreover, the prophet's skull cannot be exposed outside, so it is better to keep it secret.

After a quick thought in his mind, he said, "I don't feel right."

"The skull is still yours, just lend it to us." Xilagui looked at her with big eyes.

Every time I ask someone to do something for me, I always have an expectant look on my face.

Combined with her baby face, she is quite lethal.

"Don't worry, I'll analyze it for you." Wu Heng cast a spell and filled the cup she had drunk from with tea, then said, "Have you noticed that in recent cases, beheading and tongue pulling have frequently occurred."

Xilagui raised her eyebrows, recalled, and nodded.

This situation actually happened.

Wu Heng explained, “This is because the news that the necromancer can interrogate corpses has spread across the island. Everyone knows that as long as they take the head away or make the corpse unable to speak, they can avoid being directly questioned about the details.”

this…….

Xilagui was slightly surprised.

It really is so.

The news that the island owner is a necromancer has spread throughout the island.

Not only that, merchant ships traveling around the world are also bringing news to all parts of the world.

I learned that the method to avoid being interrogated by the necromancer is not difficult.

Wu Heng continued, "So, think about it, if you bring the Skeleton Prophet to the Association, this matter will spread again, and the murderer will probably find a new way to avoid the Prophet's investigation."

Xilagui listened and felt that what he said made sense.

It might not be a good thing if the Skeleton Prophet really went to the association with her.

"what do you mean?"

Wu Heng explained, "Only the two of us know about this. If there are any difficult cases in the future, you can bring the murderer's belongings here, and you don't need to bring anyone. We will arrest the person quietly and not reveal any unnecessary information to others."

Xi Lagui drank tea and thought about this matter in her mind.

Finally he nodded and agreed, "What you said makes sense, but what if you're not here? What if I want the skeleton to check on someone?"

"Minnie, you know her, right? When you come next time, I'll ask her to take you up." Wu Heng said, and then continued, "You are a deacon, why are you personally leading a team to arrest people?"

"The new deputy deacon hasn't been transferred here yet, so I won't be in charge of him from now on." Xilagui leaned back in her chair.

Finished talking about the case and the Skeleton Prophet.

Wu Heng looked at her again and said, "I have an idea. Can we let the association and the guards on the island take charge of public security together?"

"What do you mean?"

"There is no patrol team on the island now, and it is a bit difficult to recruit people. Can we let the guards and team members of the association be trained first, and I will provide a certain amount of skeletons for coordination?" Wu Heng expressed his thoughts.

At the moment, recruiting guards from the island is not a problem that can be solved in a short time.

We still have to rely on the association to temporarily maintain law and order on the island.

"I have no objection. If you need, I can arrange personnel to patrol. It's up to you whether to arrange the skeletons or not." Xilagui thought about it and agreed directly.

"Okay, let's make it like this for now. We'll start patrolling tomorrow. This murder is also a reminder for us."

"Okay, I'll arrange it when I get back."

Wu Heng smiled, "Thank you!"

"You're so stupid!" Xilagui rolled her eyes at him, stretched her waist, and said with a full heart, "Okay, I got up early today, so I'll go back first."

"Well, come when you have time."

"Got it!" Xilagui looked at him with a smile and walked downstairs slowly.

I also said hello to Minnie.

He left the manor by himself.

Wu Heng looked at the time, it was 1:20 p.m.

Nothing to do in the afternoon.

I still plan to go check out the zombie world, it’s been two days.

He opened the door from the study and walked straight in.

……

Walk out of the gate.

As Wu Heng went downstairs, he called Li Yahong.

Soon, Li Yahong came over and took him to see the collected construction vehicles.

Rows of construction vehicles are parked neatly, and most of them are brand new.

On one side, stood a skeleton warrior who had unlocked the driving knowledge.

"The fuel tanks are full." Li Yahong said on the side.

Wu Heng praised, "You are so thoughtful. I feel most at ease leaving this to you."

Li Yahong blinked and said, "After all, I am now the deputy leader."

While the two were talking.

A voice came from Li Yahong's intercom, "Sister Hong, the radio room said there was a message from Qi Hancai, saying that the train responsible for exploring the road and clearing obstacles has lost contact, and they want to find the king."

Train lost contact?

The two looked at each other, with some confusion in their eyes.

"Let's go to the radio room."
