Heroic Spirit Transformation System 2

Chapter 177 [The Holy Grail Event of the Magic Eye Train]

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

A scream broke the peaceful atmosphere. Several people who were talking or resting subconsciously rushed towards the direction of the scream.

For El-Melloi II, the scream still belonged to someone he knew, so it couldn't be regarded as not hearing it.

"Grey!"

Before the incident, the inner disciple Grey, who had talked with El-Melloi II, responded immediately.

"Yes! Master!"

El-Melloi II, whose real name is Weber Velvet, had participated in the Fourth Holy Grail War in Fuyuki, and survived to the end when the mentor known as the genius of the clock tower died. In the end, due to various reasons, he inherited Taking the name of "El-Mello" from his tutor, he temporarily takes over the position of the monarch of the modern magic department.

He is known as the monarch El-Melloi II—but he himself doesn't like being called that. Although it's embarrassing to say it, he didn't become the monarch voluntarily.

But in any case, he is also one of the twelve monarchs who can be regarded as the central organization of the Magic Association, and he can be regarded as a person who can preside over the overall situation here... No matter whether everyone respects him or not, at least he will give the Clock Tower face.

If something goes wrong, El-Melloi II should be able to stabilize the scene quickly, but most importantly, he is not a character who will ignore such accidents.

...I hope it's not a big deal, but to make that child scream so terribly, it's probably impossible for this wish to come true.

Thinking this way, El-Melloi II finally ran to the place where the accident happened.

Some people who were relatively close had already surrounded the door, and El-Melloi II squeezed in from the crowd, and finally saw clearly what happened inside.

The door of the room was open, and the carpet was stained red with blood. A headless corpse was lying on the carpet. The pool of blood was still slowly expanding. It could be seen that not long had passed since the incident happened.

From this room and the clothes worn by the corpse, El-Melloi II judged that the deceased was someone he knew.

Trisha Philoz, a magician with a vision of the future, is the entourage and tutor of the girl who is kneeling next to the dead body.

The girl's name is Olga Marie Asmiret Animsfia, the daughter of the Emperor of Astronomy, she is only eleven or twelve years old this year, and she is about to face the death of someone close to her...

She died so badly, and seeing how she didn't react until now, she knew that she must have left a psychological shadow.

Well, as a person related to the deceased, it is understandable for Olga Marie to appear here, but who is that person who is examining the corpse! ?

El-Melloi II eyed the stranger warily.

He was a young man in his twenties, probably because he was indoors, so he took off his coat and only wore a suit vest. There was very little information revealed from his appearance, but the first thing El-Melloi II saw just now At a glance, you can feel the breath of the British from him.

The young man knelt down on one knee with a serious and rigorous expression, and looked at the corpse at close range. It seemed that if he was not afraid of irritating Olga Marie, he was already planning to touch it...

"You're lying, hello, Trisha...!" The girl who was only in her early ten years cried and yelled, "Who killed Trisha! Was it you!? The murderer must be you, people from the Church of the Holy Church! Give me back Tricia!"

The Church of the Holy Church has been at odds with the Magic Association for a long time, and it is only in modern times that they barely get along with each other, but in fact they are still hostile organizations in private. Considering that the person who was killed was a magician, it is normal to be the first to doubt the people of the Church of the Holy Church. train of thought.

The identified person was an old man. He said calmly that he was not the murderer, and said, "Can I do the autopsy?"

"I see. You are very familiar with the corpse, but besides that, it seems that there are other sources - considering the location we are in, are you the seller? What kind of magic eyes do you have?" The one who had been observing the corpse The young man suddenly spoke.

The old man glanced at him in surprise, hesitated for a few seconds, and replied, "Yes, I have the magic eye of past sight."

What supports young people to make judgments is where they are now.This is a train famous for collecting and auctioning magic eyes. The people on the train are either sellers or buyers. Although it is not clear how he guessed that the old man has magic eyes, after hearing the word "seeing in the past", everyone present Relaxed a little.

If I have a past vision that can see what happened in the past, I should be able to know what happened here just now.

"...Looking at it in the past... It's an amazing talent to be able to hit the heart to some extent, even though I said it casually."

Everyone else's attention was focused on the old man of the Holy Church who suddenly revealed his identity and ability. Only El-Melloi II, who was closer, heard the young man's whisper.

At first, El-Melloi II thought that the other party was referring to himself, and guessed that the old man had magic eyes, but he guessed right, so he expressed such emotion.

But he quickly realized that the tone was not right, it didn't sound like he was talking about himself, but if you want to guess based on the context, the only object of the other party's evaluation is——

Olga Marie.

Excluding those meaningless emotional venting, she only said one sentence that could correspond to this emotion, and that was "You must be the murderer, people from the Church of the Holy Church".

In other words, although he just stared at the corpse for a while, the young man has already made the judgment that "this old man from the Holy Church is the murderer"...

It's very strange, does he know something inside?Although El-Melloi II saw this person for the first time, his intuition told him that the young man did not seem to be someone who would talk freely... There should be evidence to support him to say such a thing, right?It's not just pure hostility to the Church of the Holy Church, so I support Olga Marie's anger...

"Speaking of which, who are you?" El-Melloi II finally couldn't help asking this question.

Olga Marie, who had been very excited, was suddenly stunned: "...Yeah, who are you? Wait, have you been by my side all this time?! When did you appear?"

The young man showed a polite smile: "I'm just a passerby... Because when the child screamed, I happened to pass by the door, so I should be the second person to arrive at the scene."

One of the people who gathered at the door to watch the excitement also testified: "Then I'm probably the third to come. When I came, I saw this guy blindfolded Miss Animsfia..."

However, Ms. Animsfia might not be able to accept the reality, so she quickly tore off the man's hand and insisted on confirming the corpse again...

Olga Marie remembered that it seemed to be the case, but she was immersed in shock and panic at the time, and what happened around her was actually a bit hazy.

El-Melloi II understood.

Probably because of the close contact at this time, Olga Marie accepted it without reacting, which led to subconsciously accepting the other party's presence and absence next to the corpse as an established phenomenon, and it was not until someone pointed it out that she realized that something was wrong.

But blindfolding Olga Marie to prevent her from seeing the corpse... It's really not enough for a magician, and he doesn't look like the person who should appear on the train where magicians gather.

Although the other party didn't look like that kind of person, from the perspective of the interests of an orthodox magician, this action can be said to be very suspicious.

"When blindfolding another person's eyes, you should be able to do some small actions, such as destroying the scene or something——Is that what you think?" the young man said suddenly.

El-Melloi II, who had guessed what was on his mind, was slightly frightened, but he quickly reacted and replied: "I have indeed thought about this possibility, but you will not do that, because if it is If you were talking about it, you would definitely be able to imagine the possibility of someone with 'past vision' coming to see the scene."

Even though they had just met, El-Melloi II felt that the other party was not someone who would act so imprudently, and he believed that if he could think of it, the other party would certainly be able to think of it.

It can be said that this is a kind of intuition of El-Melloi II, and it can also be said that the atmosphere around the other party feels like this.

This kind of unreasonable feeling is actually a bit dangerous, because it is very likely that the other party deliberately made people think this way, but if you think about it along this line of thought, it will be endless, so just trust your intuition and forget it.

"It didn't work that well in the past." The young man looked at the old man who was examining the corpse, and said calmly, "It's like he still doesn't know the true face of the murderer."

The old man stopped what he was doing, and looked at the young man strangely: "How do you know...my past view has been interfered with?"

The guy hit it off again.

El-Melloi II was no longer surprised, but at the same time, more doubts arose in his heart.

Suppose the young man's inferences are correct.

Then it is known that:

1. The young people agree with Olga Marie's judgment that "the old man is a murderer".

2. Young people know that the old man's past vision will be interfered with, and think that the old man does not know who the real culprit is.

... If you follow this line of reasoning, the old man should have been used unconsciously to participate in the murder, and the real culprit is still hidden behind the scenes, so it is not known yet.

After El-Melloi II came to a conclusion, he suddenly realized something and was speechless for a while.

It was the first time for him to reason based on other people's judgments... Why did he reason so vigorously? What if the other party was wrong.

What's more, he didn't even know what the other party based his judgment on, so why would he subconsciously trust the other party?

"It sounds like you know a lot." The old man also noticed something similar to El-Melloi II, and looked at the young man suspiciously. "May I ask, what do you know?"

"Almost half of the truth is known, but I won't tell my reasoning until I understand the whole picture of the incident." The young man smiled slightly, "But I can give a hint... the missing head, Where did you go?"

"This is the magic eye collection train." The old man said as a matter of course, "It should be to extract the magic eyes of the dead, so I took them away?"

"No, it's not that simple..."

Olga Marie couldn't bear it and said: "So, who are you?! Why do you appear here and talk nonsense? Isn't it too suspicious?"

"Ah, sorry, it seems that I haven't introduced myself all this time."

The youth's smile was unapologetic.

"My name is James and I'm a detective."

El-Melloi II: "..."

——Are all young magicians so idle these days?

(No one sees the reason why Qiye is a heroic spirit. I emphasize that I explained it in the speech, so I won't reply one by one, okay?)
