Chapter 693, Woman
"Are you sure he's alive?" Gianvito asked.
"The magic item will only take effect if people are alive," Wu Heng explained.
The others who came over also looked happy when they heard this explanation.
Since entering the city, the whole case has been obscure and difficult. It seems that the association members are investigating the case smoothly and no one locally interferes, but the investigation is going back and forth everywhere and there is no progress.
There seems to be a turn for the better today, as the family of the murdered secret speaker has been found.
There may be some important clues.
"Don't delay, in case something goes wrong with this clue," said Gianvito.
This is because they are afraid that someone will find them early and kill them.
Wu Heng glanced at the pendant and said to the person behind him, "You guys stay here to guard it. Gianvito, the rest of you follow me. Do you have a horse? Bring it over."
"Yes!" everyone answered, and their morale improved a bit.
At this time, two horses were led over.
Wu Heng and the old wizard jumped on their horses, whipped them lightly, and ran in the direction indicated by the pendant.
The skeleton servant also started to run quickly, keeping a distance between them.
And further behind were the association members jogging along.
A team split into three groups and ran wildly on the street.
Attracting the attention of everyone along the way.
……
residential area.
The association team entered aggressively.
Residents on both sides of the road quickly left, and the grain stores that were open also half-closed their doors.
Through the gap, I looked at the team that suddenly broke in.
Huh~!
Wu Heng pulled the reins and the horse stopped quickly.
The old wizard also stopped and stroked his gray beard to maintain his image.
Wu Heng pointed to the houses in front and said, "This is it."
The house is a two-story building made of brick, stone and wood.
After all, it is a port city, and the living conditions are much better.
"It seems like we're not very welcome?" Gianvito looked around, "Where's your little ghost? Check if there's any danger nearby."
Sense the release.
You can feel the voices from behind the doors of some houses and the eyes looking in through the gaps.
The slight collision of tools could be felt as a sign of vigilance against these people.
"There's no danger. The city has captured able-bodied men before, so it's normal for them to be wary of us. Don't worry about them." Wu Heng said directly.
While the two were talking.
The skeleton servants and other members of the association also arrived one after another.
"Don't waste time," Gianvito urged.
Wu Heng also pointed to the house in front of him and said, "Knock on the door."
A member of the association came forward and knocked on the door.
There were faint sounds of footsteps from inside, but no response.
"We are from the association and are asking for some information."
It was still quiet inside.
"Break the door." Gianvito said directly.
Bang~!
The team member who knocked on the door kicked it.
The door panel shook violently.
Bang! The second kick landed, and the door instantly opened inwards.
In a dim house.
Three women and a child were hugging each other, and some of them had their hands behind their backs as if holding some weapons.
"What are you going to do? We are united. If you dare to mess around, you will have no chance of getting away with it." A woman said firmly.
"We are association members who came to the city to look for someone," someone explained.
"Looking for someone? We don't have what you're looking for here."
"Whose family has association members?" the team member continued to ask.
No one in the house spoke.
Wu Heng glanced at the pendant in his hand and pointed at a woman hiding behind. She was less than 30 years old, with black and gray on her face, but her facial features looked pretty good.
"You come with us to the association."
"No, no, I don't know anything." The woman dodged.
"We are from the association's headquarters. Not long ago, an informant from the association died on the way to report a message. We got the news and came to investigate, and happened to find the person behind it was you." Wu Heng looked at the other party and said calmly.
The woman's eyes wandered for a long time before she said, "Why should I believe you?"
"Let's go to the association. You'll know our identity when you get there." Wu Heng continued.
The woman looked at the men gathered outside and realized that there was nothing she could do to stay away.
He nodded and said, "I'll go with you."
"please!"
The woman nodded, picked up the package behind her, and followed him out.
The rest of the people all retreated.
Wu Heng took out a few silver coins from his space ring and handed them to the remaining people in the room, "Excuse me, use them to repair the door."
He piled the silver coins on the cabinet beside the door and left with the others.
When returning, there is no need to be so anxious.
The group escorted the woman directly back to the association.
……
Inside the association building.
Elder Tapani sat upright on his chair, his face extremely serious.
There was some progress today.
But I am not sure what the final result will be and whether it will help the entire case.
"Elder, do we need to arrange for someone to go out and pick them up?"
Tapani glanced at the people in the room and said, "No need. We can just stay here and wait for them."
"What if there is still no accurate intelligence?"
Tapani glared at the person who asked the question, but still said, "If there is still no clue, it will not be us who are worried, but the Kingdom of Yeko and the city of Netale. Whether there is any result by then, the mayor of the city will have to be replaced."
"That's right. The one who is most worried right now should be the city lord here."
"If he blocks us from entering the city and there are doubts in this case, he doesn't need to be the city lord anymore."
"It all depends on Wu Heng and the others to see if there will be any results this time."
As everyone was discussing in low voices, footsteps were heard outside the door.
The door of the conference room opened, and Wu Heng and his companions, along with a woman, strode in.
……
Gianvito and Elder Tapani exchanged quick glances.
The serious expression on Tapani's face also relaxed a little.
"Wu Heng, what's wrong?" Tapani asked directly.
Wu Heng said: "I learned a little bit on the way. This person who claimed to be the wife of the messenger, something happened in the city. She didn't have time to leave the city, so she hid in the home of an ordinary resident."
The elder nodded, looked at the woman in linen, and asked, "What's your name?"
The woman avoided his gaze and stepped back.
Wu Heng said, "This is the elder of the association's headquarters. He is the strongest in the city. He will answer whatever you ask. You will not be in danger."
The woman bowed slightly and said, "My name is Flora."
"Did your husband leave you any message before he left?"
"Yes!" the woman nodded.
Everyone in the room looked moved.
"What's left?" Tapani asked.
The woman took off her coat, opened the inner garment along the seam, and took out a bill of the Snake Emblem Consortium from the interlayer.
This kind of bill is quite common in the Snake Emblem Consortium. They recognize the bill but not the person, and this is what it means.
Wu Heng took it and took a look. There was no problem with the imprint and anti-counterfeiting on the bill.
He turned and handed it to the level 18 investigator nearby to check it again.
Also confirmed that there is no problem.
Wu Heng then asked, "Besides this bill, what else did he tell you? What did he instruct you on?"
“This…” The woman fell silent, then said, “I can’t remember. The last thing I remember was that he told me to hide if I was in danger and wait for people from the association’s headquarters to come here.”
"What kind of person is he usually?" Wu Heng asked.
The woman was stunned, and the others looked at him strangely.
Then the woman began to sob quietly and talked about how they knew each other and how responsible they were.
Waited for a while to talk.
Seeing that he couldn't get any answers, Wu Heng continued to ask: "Does anyone else want to ask anything?"
"No more, arrange a dormitory for her and go and have some rest," Tapani said.
The woman was escorted out of the room.
After the door was closed, Wu Heng looked at the priest, "Are you telling the truth?"
"It's hard to judge. There are only two sentences, and then there's crying." said the priest.
Tapani looked at her, "Do you suspect she has a problem?"
"I'm not sure either." Wu Heng continued, "I'll go to the local Snake Emblem Consortium to have a look. It was closed before. I don't know if I can still find anyone there."
"I'll go with you, and Dean Gianvito stay here. If the information is useful, we can arrest the person directly." Tapani said as he stood up.
