"Since the damn Prohibition, I haven't seen such good wine in almost half a year. Where did you get it?"

"West of the Fire Hospital, in the hands of a woman named Falcon. I heard that she transformed an abandoned warehouse into a wine cellar. One bottle of good wine in it a day is enough to last ten years!"

"sky!"

"God!"

"Ocean God above...how did she do it?"

"..."

Amidst the noise.

Kvir turned his head and raised his chin towards Chi Yu.

Chi Yu understood and followed him out of the hotel.

Kevir subconsciously took a deep breath, and then coughed repeatedly as if he was choking.

Chi Yu raised his eyebrows.

Feeling her gaze, Kver smiled apologetically: "I forgot this is an island... What do you think of what those police said?"

Chi Yu looked away: "I probably didn't lie, but I also concealed a lot of things."

"I think so too." Kver nodded. "When it came to Elizabeth's motive for suicide, the middle-aged police officer's intention to change the subject was so obvious that it was difficult not to doubt it."

"It seems that Elizabeth's situation on this island is not very good..."

His thinking was out of the ordinary, and Chi Yu didn't give in too much.

"Indeed." She responded calmly, "Judging from Mr. Jack's description, his daughter is kind, gentle, cheerful, and sunny... Any suicide is simply nonsense."

"But the three police officers were not surprised by this incident, as if it was a natural choice for Elizabeth to take her own life."

Therefore, Elizabeth Campbell must have had an extremely special... even tragic experience during the time she left her hometown and settled in Orvis.

"You're still here after all this, and you've been living here for five years... What's the secret?"

Kver touched his chin, "Interesting."

The necessary emotion for a detective is curiosity about the case.

Elizabeth's suicide obviously aroused his interest.

The two walked for a long time in the empty streets, hoping to find someone to ask for directions, but as "Roland" wrote in his diary, Orvis was an extremely exclusive place.

In the end, Chi Yu found the abandoned car track map at the corner of the street, and then locked the location of Shenzhen Street.

Thanks to the sparse population density of Orvis, the per capita housing area here is not at the same level as the real world that Chi Yu is familiar with.

Standing in front of a three-story townhouse, Chi and Yu checked the house number again and again, and then Yukvir stepped forward and opened the door.

Looking at the thick wooden door that was ajar, Kver joked: "After investigating the scene, they didn't even lock the door. These police officers are too unprofessional."

After all, he was knocked away.

Chi Yu glanced at the damaged door lock and said nothing.

The layout of the house is simple, with few serious pieces of furniture. Instead, the surrounding white walls are covered with large and small oil paintings, which fully reflect the identity and personality of the owner.

Chi Yu's eyes swept over those oil paintings.

Blue sky, rice fields, deep sea, fish... every scene in nature can become an inspiration for painters.

Kver, who was only thinking about the case, kept walking and climbed up the stairs.

Chi Yu followed closely behind.

According to police, Elizabeth Campbell's bedroom was located on the second floor.

It didn't take much effort for the two of them to find the right place, cross the open door, and walk inside.

There are still densely arranged oil paintings, and the layout is very artistic.

The big bed in the middle was scattered with white quilts and sheets, stained with little bits of blood.

Chi Yu and Kver walked around to the other side of the bed at the same time.

There were inconspicuous dark red marks on the wooden floor, as if it had been treated by someone.

"There are no clues left." Kver touched his chin.

Of course, it's been two weeks.

Chi Yu glanced around the room, and his eyes stayed on the desk by the window for a moment.

Her heart moved and she took two steps forward.

Kevir followed curiously.

He glanced at the calendar that Chi Yu had taken out of his hand.

Someone drew a circle on the grid representing "No. 3" with a blue pen, and underneath there was a line of beautiful handwriting——

"Go to the police station at nine in the morning."

"Is this what Elizabeth left?" Kver asked, "What did she go to the police station for?"

"Those three police officers didn't even mention this matter... They are really a bunch of slippery guys."

According to the three men, Elizabeth had an aloof personality and rarely interacted with the police. Therefore, it must be a very important thing for her to make a special trip to the police station.

"Wouldn't it be better to ask?"

Chi Yu simply looked through the calendar and found no special information.

She picked up the photo frame next to her instead.

Kver continued: "The attitude of those policemen cannot be called cooperative. Even if they come to the door, they will most likely play dumb with us or drive us out directly. They are exactly the same as those guys in Dirkmont, like crows in the world. It’s dark…”

When he didn't get a response from Chi Yu, he lowered his head subconsciously.

However, he saw that his assistant was staring at a photo with all his concentration without blinking.

He looked at it for two seconds and found nothing unusual: "What's wrong?"

Chi Yu didn't answer but asked: "Is Elizabeth from Orvis who came five years ago?"

"Yes. Her father mentioned it before."

Kerviel became more and more confused and asked repeatedly, "What's wrong?"

"nothing."

Chi Yu put down the photo frame and took one last look at Elizabeth in the photo and the figure two feet away from her.

It was a young-looking woman, wearing a shirt and windbreaker, with slightly curly blond hair. She had a dignified and intellectual temperament.

Although her face was somewhat different from the one in the CG, Chi Yu recognized her at a glance.

Roland's mother - Lynne Pedra.

Until then.

The system, which had been disconnected for a long time, finally came belatedly.

[Note, the current copy you are in is: Resurrection. Rating: Normal. 】

[The task has been triggered. 】

[Main mission: Find out the cause of Lin Pedra’s death. 】

[Task description: My mother once taught me. 】

[The first and most precious human emotion is the pursuit of knowledge. 】

[The most passionate and craziest emotion is love. 】

[I love you deeply and I long for the truth. 】

[So, mother, please believe me... I will definitely find the cause of your death. 】

【No regrets even if I die. 】

Lyn Pedra’s cause of death…

This is the third time that Chi Yu has entered the dungeon through the Myriad Realms Puzzle, so he has also summarized a lot of rules.

For example, in this state similar to "possession", the main and branch plots released by the system are related to the object she possesses.

For another example, the objects she possesses... are often the core characters of the dungeon.
