Hearing this, Finina raised her head slightly and looked towards the theater door on the stairs. There were three figures standing at the end of the stairs.

One of them was a tall silver-white figure. Because she was facing away from the moonlight, Furninna couldn't see her face clearly, but she could guess that it was a woman.

"The woman who likes to wear silver-white clothes... Could she be the executive officer?"

Funina turned her head to look at Chang Ming, who was smiling and waving at them, and was a little surprised for a moment.

Although she is no longer afraid of Alechino, but...

She still didn't understand why Chang Ming invited her over to help?

Although the interests between the Northland Bank and Momang Palace are closely tied together, this doesn't mean that Alechino will help them again and again, right?

Finina shook her head gently, and then turned her gaze to the two figures, one big and one small, beside Arecino.

As for the other two...because she had been dealing with them some time ago, Funina recognized their identities at a glance.

"Is it the Traveler and Paimon? Or is it in the theater? Could it be that..."

Finina stroked her chin, thinking about something, while looking at the dilapidated stage behind her that had never been repaired, and there was a hint of strangeness in her eyes.

"Could it be that they were invited by Chang Ming to investigate this matter? This makes sense. After all, Alechino is the leader of the Hearth House. She is naturally better than Chang Ming and me in terms of intelligence."

Thinking of this, Funina nodded in understanding, as if she understood something.

And Alechino and Ying took advantage of the time when Finina was thinking and came to them.

Looking at Furninha who seemed to be still thinking, Alechino smiled slightly, and then said to Chang Ming:

"Mr. Chang Ming, Mr. Villette told me that you needed my extra help, so I came."

Hearing what Alechino said, Paimon nodded quickly and said:

"Yes, yes, yes. We also received Chang Ming's message from Catherine a few days ago, so we rushed here at this time."

Paimon's words instantly reminded Funina. She narrowed her eyes slightly, looked suspiciously at the grinning Paimon and the smiling Ying, and said in a strange tone:

"I heard from Mr. Claude... haven't you been investigating who is planning to murder us and the troupe? Why... a few days ago?"

Hearing this, Ying and Paimeng's faces froze, and then they scratched their heads embarrassedly.

"Well... Actually, the thing is, we have been investigating here for a long time but couldn't find out the reason, so... we gave up..."

"And didn't Chang Ming also tell us to do our best? If it doesn't work, he will find someone to help investigate the matter together."

Finina raised her eyebrows, folded her hands across her chest, and looked up and down at Ying and Paimon before continuing to ask:

"So... you didn't do anything during these few days?"

"It's not that I didn't do anything, but...I couldn't do it even if I wanted to."

Paimeng spread his hands, and an angry expression suddenly appeared on his little face, and then he said:

"After telling Chang Ming that the investigation had yielded no results, this guy and I went to the Adventurer's Association to take on some monster-clearing missions."

"Perhaps because of the disaster predicted earlier, the only monsters left outside Fontaine are the "Original Sea Aliens", so we are on the road every day."

"The result! Every time we arrive at the mission site, we find one or two heterochromatic crystal blocks or heterochromatic beads that are no longer of any value, making it impossible for us to complete the mission!"

"Humph, I don't know which guy doesn't care about Mora so much. He has killed all the monsters but he doesn't even know how to take the spoils away to claim the reward."

"It would be fine if they didn't take it away, but they even took away the only characteristic item that can be used to identify whether it is a Yuanhai alien species. This is really causing trouble for others!"

Paimon puffed out his lips angrily, causing Alecino, who was standing next to them, to slightly raise the corner of her mouth, as if she had seen something interesting.

The corners of Chang Ming's mouth twitched slightly, and then he laughed and said:

"Oh, by the way, I asked Ms. Arlechino to come this time to confirm whether there are any details we missed."

"After all, none of us are from the intelligence profession, so our sensitivity to clues is definitely not as good as Ms. Arlecino's."

"Mr. Chang Ming, you are too kind. In comparison... I am just a little more sensitive. If Mr. Chang Ming had received professional training, he would surely do better than me."

As Alecino spoke, she lightly jumped onto the stage, walked around the hole, and then jumped down.

......

Alechino looked at the broken, low-quality wooden board in front of him, a thoughtful look flashed across his eyes, and then he did something that shocked everyone present.

boom--

A black-red flame burst out from Alecino's hand without warning, and the raging flames instantly engulfed the broken wooden board.

"Huh? Why did she burn that piece of wood?"

Finina tilted her head, as if she didn't quite understand what Alechino was doing.

Ying and Paimon also didn't understand why Arlecino suddenly burned the wooden board. After all, in their opinion... this wooden board had no investigation value.

There is nothing else worth discussing about this thing except that it proves that the board has been replaced.

As the crackling sound of flames continued to sound from below, Chang Ming frowned slightly and then muttered to himself:

"No matter how low-quality ordinary wood is, it won't make so many crackling noises when burning, right?"

As if he heard Chang Ming's words, or as if the inferior wooden board had been burned out, Alechino jumped onto the stage.

She didn't say anything, but placed a ball of ashes wrapped in fire elements in front of Chang Ming, and then said softly:

"Mr. Chang Ming, maybe after you read this... you will understand why you haven't found the problem yet."

Hearing this, Chang Ming frowned slightly, then leaned over to look at the ashes in front of him.

Unlike the ashes from a normal burn, this pile of ash was not as...black as Chang Ming had imagined.

It was not known whether it was Chang Ming's illusion or what, but he always felt that the color of this mass of ash was more purple-black, and... there were some white noise spots wriggling inside.

Chang Ming rubbed his eyes gently, and then realized that he was not dazzled and did not see it wrong.

Those white things are really squirming.

He frowned slightly, and just when he was about to ask Alechino what this thing was...she spoke first:

"This is an ice log worm, a bug from Solstice."

"Although in the broadest sense they are beneficial insects that can chew on wood to loosen up the hard frozen ground a little bit in winter."

"But if you are familiar enough with the nature of this bug... you will realize a problem."

"These guys can be used for assassinations."

Never mind, there is only one chapter left. I spent too much time thinking about the emotional design of the legendary mission of Villette later today. I am a bit impatient to write ()
