Had lunch.

The rest of the people began to sort out the cases, and Wu Heng left the association and headed for the fleet's location.

On the way, Xiao Xiaoyin leaned on his shoulder and asked, "Uncle, is the case closed?"

"Having already started sorting out the clues means that we have acknowledged this ending."

"Aren't you afraid of arresting the wrong person?" Xiaoxiao asked curiously.

"There are no other clues in the city, and this is the only one. Even if there are loopholes, as long as the case can be sorted out, it must be closed." Wu Heng explained softly.

"They are not here to investigate, they are here to earn merit."

"Well, most of them come here to earn merit."

Arriving at the port, Wu Heng boarded the ship directly.

"How is it? Did you gain anything today?" Philippa walked over from the side.

The fifth princess and her maid also followed behind.

Wu Heng said: "We found out that the leader of a gang was originally a pirate. The deacon of the association found clues and killed people directly. Then the army in the city fought, and the matter was covered up."

Hearing the news, the three of them were stunned.

"Look, I told you it has nothing to do with Netale City. Philippa, you lose." The fifth princess said with some excitement.

Philippa frowned. "Did they catch the leader? Did he admit it?"

"The man died in battle half a month ago. The source of the clue is the letter left by the secret talker." Wu Heng explained.

Philippa's eyes changed for a moment, and she asked for confirmation: "Did he kill her?"

"Without any new clues, the elders have concluded that he did it." Wu Heng replied.

"I know Dashiel. He is not a pirate and would not do such a stupid thing." The fifth princess put her hands behind her back and raised her chest slightly.

"What do you mean? Pirates at least won't sell out their own people." Philippa counterattacked.

"Hmph, you lost this time, don't cheat." The little maid echoed.

"It's still unclear who will lose." Philippa looked at Wu Heng, "Why don't you arrest the city lord and question him directly? I remember the association asked you directly last time and even used props. Why is it so difficult this time?"

It was about the last time the inspector went to the island to investigate Wu Heng.

There was no evidence at the time, but he conducted an investigation based solely on his identity as a necromancer and even used rare items.

Wu Heng said: "Can this be the same?"

"What's the difference? Aren't there two level 18 players in the team? Are you worried that he won't cooperate?" Philippa asked.

Wu Heng thought for a moment and organized his explanation, "The two are different. The inspector's investigation of me is an internal investigation, which belongs to the same system of the association. This city lord is from the Yeke Kingdom, and he must have evidence to do anything."

Philippa thought for a moment, "I think I understand."

“The association is already quite strong.”

"Okay! So what do we do next?" Philippa continued.

"The fleet will start preparing. After one more day of rest tomorrow, we will return to Treasure Island." Wu Heng instructed.

Philippa nodded, "Okay, I'll be ready."

Wu Heng continued, "I'm going back first."

"Okay." Philippa nodded.

Wu Heng got off the boat and heard the strange voice of the maid behind him, "Princess, what do you think Nautilus should be called in the future?"

On the way, they went to a leather goods store and promised the owner to take her away.

Still have to say it in advance.

……

Return to the association.

Everyone seemed much more relaxed and no longer as busy as when they were investigating a case.

Wu Heng sat down in an empty rest area nearby, flipping through the letters that were left at the association.

They haven't been sent out for a long time and are all detained here.

Footsteps were heard and Kavina came over. "While you were away, the city lord came over."

"What are you here for?" Wu Heng asked curiously.

"He came to inquire about the situation of the captured people. He learned that they were definitely related to the killing of the deacon, but he didn't say much." Kavina narrated, and then added, "By the way, he also said that he would host a banquet for everyone, but the elder refused."

"He must be here to get information."

"Well, let's stay in the city. I feel like he's more nervous than the murderer."

"really."

As the two chatted, a member of Kavina's team came over from behind.

"I'm going to get busy." Kavina also stood up.

"Go ahead." Wu Heng nodded.

Kavina left and Wu Heng returned to his dormitory.

……

Night falls in the bedroom.

Xiaoxiao poked her head out from the wall and said, "Uncle, I called them back."

As they were talking, Glenda and Benny flew in from the front and back.

"What's wrong?" Glenda asked.

Wu Heng closed the blueprint in his hand and asked, "Is there anything wrong with those two people?"

Granda was keeping an eye on the level 18 military president, while Benny was in charge of keeping an eye on the city lord's mansion.

The two of them have a clear division of labor.

Granda said, "After I went there, I kept an eye on his movements. They must have arranged people to keep an eye on the association. There are continuous reports of your actions, but no news about the assassination of the deacon or any extraordinary actions."

"Benny, where are you?"

Beni also said: "We didn't find anything in the City Lord's Mansion. Some letters were written to the outside, but I couldn't see the content of the letters because they must have been sent out of the city."

Wu Heng nodded and said, "This morning, we found the wife of the whisperer, and based on the clues she provided, we found the letter she left behind and traced it back to the Shuanglong Gang."

"Case closed?"

"If there is no new information, we will deal with the White Wing Gang issue tomorrow and then return to Treasure Island. The rest of us will return to the association headquarters." Wu Heng said.

The two ghosts were a little surprised.

"How did it happen?" asked Glenda.

"Auntie, I know. I'll tell you." Xiaoxiao raised her hand.

Glenda nodded, "Okay, let's talk a little."

Xiao Xiao flew to the side and told everyone everything that happened today.

Different from the participants, Xiaoxiao looked at the entire case from the perspective of a bystander and described it in great detail.

After listening, the two ghosts also nodded.

Xiao Xiao continued, "Auntie, can you include me in the new story? I also want to be a big star."

Granda said: "The whole case happened in just two days, and there is not much story to it, so it may not be suitable for being written into a story."

"Ah? Is it because it's too fast?"

“There is no story.”

Wu Heng simply tidied himself up and said, "I'm going to rest. Don't go too far."

The three ghosts nodded.

Wu Heng went to bed to rest.

……

The next day, early in the morning.

The association's underground morgue.

Wu Heng stood on one side, with the rest of the association members standing behind him.

"Wu Heng, take out the body and deal with it quickly so that we can go back and report." Tapani said.

Wu Heng took out two corpses wrapped in straw mats from his space ring.

These two corpses were members of the White Wing Gang who were killed at sea when they arrived. They were thought to be useful at the time, so they were not transformed into skeletons but preserved.

[The Dead Man Talks] is released, and the corpse sits up instantly.

Wu Heng asked, "What level is your leader?"

"Level 13."

"Do you hold any important position in the army?"

The corpse replied, "I am mainly responsible for some transportation dispatches in the city."

Wu Heng then asked, "What are his appearance characteristics?"

"Very burly, with no earlobe on his left ear."

Wu Heng then asked, "Where can I find him?"

The corpse answered directly, "There is a dispatch hall in the north of the city. He has been living there now."

A total of four questions were asked.

The elder said directly: "No need to ask. Wu Heng asked you to check the ghost in the mobilization hall. The rest of you wait for news. Once you find the target, arrest him first, and the rest will be dealt with later."

"Okay!" Wu Heng nodded.

The magic dissipated, and the corpse questioning him lay back on its back.

Everyone left the basement and gathered in the lobby on the first floor.

Wu Heng walked aside and whispered a few words.

Let the ghost go out to investigate the situation.

……

The ghost went out to investigate.

The rest waited inside the association.

The city is also monitoring the Association’s every move, and if they take action, they must capture their target as quickly as possible.

Otherwise, it may give the other party time to react.

As for the attitude towards the leader of the White Wing Gang, Elder Tapani had a tougher attitude.

Arrest the person directly and deal with the rest after you catch him.

"The wife of the Whisperer left this morning." Gianvito walked over and said.

"She left?" Wu Heng turned his head, a little curious, "Where could she go at this time?"

"Last night, Tapani and I asked to leave. We were told that someone from our mother's family came to pick us up, and that we were planning to leave the city first, taking advantage of the association's presence here." Gianvito said softly.

"Don't we need to bring her back to headquarters?"

"After all, she is not a criminal, and she played a role in providing clues in the case. It is enough to record it. And since she was crying, we let her go." said Gianvito.

"Has the pension been paid to her?"

"Can I ask for her help? It's given by Tapani. As an elder, he can only get more, not less."

As if hearing what the two were talking about, Elder Tapani, who was not far away, turned around and looked over.

He walked over straightly and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Judging from their appearance and form, the elves are indeed a favored race.

Still young, and tall and well-proportioned.

"Let's talk about the woman who left this morning," Gianvito said.

Tapani nodded, "It's good that she left on her own initiative. It seems that she is not very emotionally stable."

The three of them got together and chatted for a while.

The ghost that was arranged to go out and investigate the situation also flew back.

"I'll go over there." Wu Heng said, and walked to a slightly further side. "What's wrong? Have you found the target?"

Xiao Xiao lowered her voice and said, "Found it. There's another person. He looks very familiar to me."

"Who?"

"Look, I'm talking to the idiot leader." Xiao Xiao said, and then went straight into the body.

Then, a picture was shared into my mind.

There were two figures sitting in the dim room.

One of them was of burly build, wearing the uniform of a commander, with a crew cut and a wound on his left ear, which had no earlobe.

The person opposite was an old man, standing straight and drinking tea non-stop.

Wu Heng's heart moved.

The Snake Emblem Group, the old receptionist who exchanged the brocade box with the bill.
