Middle-earth Raiders Full Plan

When Anila and Legolas get someone to take Monica's body back to town, there's no doubt that there's an uproar in Tehapua.

People sighed, the last pillar of Monica's family collapsed, and it was only a matter of time before the whole family business collapsed. As the richest man in Tehapua, the decline of Monica's family will undoubtedly implicate To a string of other people's businesses, it's not all good news.

Except for Monica's mother who stumbled over while crying, and fainted on the spot when she saw Monica's body, the saddest thing was probably Mayor Pierce, whose favorite daughter-in-law was so useless. up.

On the contrary, although Hans still knew on the surface that he should not be too presumptuous, he was already happy in his heart, and he wished to go to his dear Alice now.

As the first witnesses to the corpse, Anila and Legolas were naturally called by Mayor Pierce to inquire about the situation. Anila roughly talked about the process of finding Monica's body.

Pierce's expression was very serious: "According to your description, do you think Monica was killed by others?"

"I haven't looked at the body carefully yet," Anila said, "but yes, I think the possibility that Miss Monica committed suicide is very small, almost impossible."

Pierce nodded and looked at Legolas: "Do you have anything to add, Master Elf?"

"No," replied Legolas, "and please don't call me Elf Lord."

"Monica is such a strong and optimistic child, how could she commit suicide!" Monica's mother's eyes were red and swollen, she grabbed Pierce's sleeve and refused to let go, "Mayor, you must catch the murderer and avenge my daughter!"

"Of course, ma'am." Pierce agreed righteously, but his heart was at a loss.In the 20 years he has been the mayor of the town, there has never been such a murder case in the town.

Legolas looked at Anila, and found that she was bowing her head in thought, and the alarm bells rang out in her heart.

"Velodyus." He couldn't help but make a sound.

Anila turned to look at him: "Huh?"

For some reason, being stared at by those righteous green eyes, Legolas' words that had reached his mouth turned around in his throat a few times before being swallowed back.

"It's okay." Forget it, she can do whatever she wants.Legolas thought bitterly, anyway, he would never be able to speak against her.

"Just say what you have to say." Anila blinked strangely, "Did you remember any important clues?"

Legolas ignored her.

"You two." Anila and Legolas were staring at each other when Monica's mother suddenly came to them, wiped the corners of her eyes, and bowed deeply, "Anyway, this time I would like to thank you for finding Monica."

"It's just a coincidence." Anila quickly replied, "But unfortunately we are still one step late."

Monica's mother smiled wryly and shook her head: "You two, please follow me home to receive the reward."

"No, no, I really don't need this." Anila waved her hands again and again, "We rangers travel all over the world on weekdays, what do we do with so much money? It's inconvenient to say the least."

However, Monica's mother had a tough attitude, and despite Anila's repeated refusals, she finally complied reluctantly.

"This lady is a man of her word." On the way to Monica's house, Legolas and Anila whispered behind their ears, "We only brought back her daughter's body, I almost I thought she would take advantage of this to renege on her debt."

"How can there be so many such noble people in this world? Let alone a family of merchants who are good at calculating?" Anila replied softly, "I'm afraid this lady has something to ask of us."

Legolas was stunned: "Velodys, you...you may think too badly of others, how do you know that she won't sincerely want to thank us?"

"Without the mainstay, the situation in Monica's family will only go from bad to worse in the future, and I can't take care of myself. And I can't make it clearer, we don't need this money at all. Two hundred gold coins, this is not a small number, but she still Insist on giving us the money.” Anila explained, “But if she still has something to ask us, it makes sense why she insists on giving us the reward, because if we take her money , we cannot easily refuse her request."

Legolas was silent.

"It's not that bad, Legolas." Anila said softly, "It's actually a sad thing for a poor woman who has lost all her family to use the only thing she has now to achieve her goals." Just be gentle with her."

"Velodys, you are too kind to everyone!" Legolas was very dissatisfied, "As the saying goes, people are bullied when they are good, and people ride when they are good. Be careful that you will be sold by someone one day. Woolen cloth!"

"There is a vicious jungle overlord by my side, I want to see who dares to betray me." Anila looked relaxed.

"Are you complimenting me?" Legolas made a gesture to hit Anila on the head.

"I didn't say I was praising you." Anila replied meanly.

So she got a solid blow on the head.

When we arrived at Monica's house, Monica's mother really gave me a reward more than two hundred gold coins, and then said, "Actually, I have one more thing I want to ask you two for help. As long as you agree, money is not a problem." .”

Anila and Legolas exchanged a look.

"Tell me what's your business first?" Anila asked.

"My poor Monica, I was killed by some gang of thieves just like that." Before Monica's mother could explain what happened, she began to cry again.

Legolas watched the woman whimpering and crying, and felt very tired. The most annoying thing about the vigorous and resolute jungle was crying endlessly.You said you had something to do, but you said it, why cry in front of the two of us who have nothing to do with you, look at Anila, and find that she also has a helpless face.

Monica's mother cried for a long time before barely holding back her tears. She rushed over and grabbed Legolas' arm again, and knelt down at his feet.

"My lord elf, you must help me. Since my husband passed away, there were only us orphans and widows left in the family, and now my daughter has been killed so cruelly! The only one left in the family is Leave me alone, if I haven’t found the murderer, and I can’t swallow the breath in my heart, what am I doing alive? Please, please help me find the murderer who killed Monica.” Monica’s mother finished speaking in one breath, tears It flowed down again.

"Get up first." Legolas reached out to help Monica's mother. Although Monica's mother didn't think about it, she was pulled up by Legolas with a little strength.

"First of all, madam, you have to understand that it's useless to ask me about this matter." Legolas' tone was stiff, pushing Monica's mother to Anila, "Elves don't know how to detect criminals." , This kind of thing is still left to Ranger. Including finding your daughter's body this time, I did nothing, and all the credit belongs to Velodis."

Monica's mother looked pitifully at the indifferent elf, then at the surprised Anila, she could only let go of Legolas, and looked at Anila: "This... Lord Ranger, look For the sake of being so pitiful and helpless, please help me, and the reward is easy to say."

"It's not about money, ma'am." Anila really didn't expect Legolas to hand over the decision on this matter to herself, "I, I will help you, of course."

"Why didn't you just refuse?" On the way back, Anila asked Legolas, "Don't you always think I'm wasting my time here?"

"I thought you wanted to stay." Legolas blushed with unappreciated annoyance.

"I do...but..." Anila spoke incoherently for a long time before suddenly realizing, "Ah, you are so kind, Legolas."

Legolas snorted angrily: "So I thought you were smart, Velodis, now I'm starting to doubt, can you really find the murderer?"

"Did you always think that I would be able to find the murderer?" Anila shook her head and smiled wryly. "Who knows? It's also my first time playing the role of a detective. Do your best."

Anila went to examine Monica's body first.

"The deceased has no objection and can be sure that he was killed. There are many signs of fighting on his body, but the most fatal one should be the wound on the head that was hit by a blunt instrument, and it should be caused by multiple blows." Anila Said, looking at Monica's mother standing far away, "Do you mind if I dissect the autopsy, ma'am?"

"Excuse... what?" Monica's mother was stunned, and after realizing it, she burst into tears, "God, for Vera's sake, leave a dead body for Monica, my lord! She has already suffered After such an unfortunate encounter, he will be disemboweled after death..."

Anila was overwhelmed by the piercing cries of the magic voice.

"My God, you're disgusting, Velodis," even Legolas said.

"I need to know the relatively accurate time of death of the deceased!" Anila couldn't bear it anymore, "Do you think I want to do this job? After all, Holmes still has Watson by his side, what about me? I am accompanied by an elf who can only speak sarcastic words!"

"Who are Holmes and Watson?"

"A detective and his former military medical assistant, I'll tell you the story later." Anila replied angrily, turning her head and trying to explain the meaning of her actions to Monica's mother, "Ma'am, according to the only information I have now Judging from the superficial results, Miss Monica's death time conflicts with the testimony I heard before. I need a more accurate death time, which is related to the murderer's alibi. If you caused me Your judgment is wrong, and the consequences will be borne by you—”

But Anila's voice was drowned out by Monica's mother's cries.

"Oh, Vera." Anila turned her head away irritably, "Okay, you win! I won't do anything to Miss Monica's body anymore!"

"Do you have any new discoveries, my lord?" Mayor Pierce looked at Anila eagerly. He was also at a loss for this case and could only pin his hopes on Anila.

"Do you know Christian, mayor?" Anila asked.

"Of course, we're a famous gambler in town," Pierce replied.

"That's right, I saw him this morning, and he told me that he had seen Miss Monica the night before, but according to my current autopsy results, Miss Monica has been dead for at least sixty hours, so— —”

"So it was Christian who killed Monica!" Pierce slapped his thigh, put on his hat and ran out, "I'll take someone to catch him now!"

"No—" Anila hadn't finished speaking, she could only watch Pierce run away while keeping Erkang's hand.

"Ha! I just said that guy is not a good person." Legolas seemed to be very relieved, "Now the matter is settled, Velodis, you are awesome! We can set off tomorrow—"

He looked excitedly at Anila, only to be stared back at him.

"Oh my god, I finally understand how hard it is for Holmes to live in a world where IQ is suppressed." Anila muttered.

The efficiency of Mayor Pierce's work is still not to be said, and he led someone to escort Christian back in a short while.

"Damn! Why are you arresting me? I didn't kill that bitch Monica!" Christian yelled as he was dragged away, "I want to sue you for framing! Slander! You want me to be tortured?! Don't even think about it." !"

"My lord, I have brought back the murderer for you." Mayor Pierce said proudly.

Anila smiled awkwardly: "Well, I haven't finished my sentence yet, mayor, Christian should not be the murderer."

"Did you hear that?!" Christian became angry, staring at Mayor Pierce with his neck straightened.

Pierce was dumbfounded and anxious: "What's the matter? My lord, you are right. Christian just lied, and other people in the casino told me that Monica went to the casino not the day before yesterday, but three The night before."

"Nonsense, why would Monica go to the casino?!" Monica's mother screamed, being ignored by everyone.

"Why do you say this guy is not a murderer?" Pierce asked.

"When you kill someone, you usually have a motive." Anila said, "Is there any deep hatred between Christian and Miss Monica?"

"How is it possible? With their identities, it is impossible for them to have any contact at ordinary times." Pierce said, "But Monica's family is rich, maybe this gambler just saw the money..."

"But in fact, all the money on Ms. Monica's body is still there, and the jewelry should not be lost." Anila replied, "So I don't think Christian killed the person."

"Can you let me go?" Christian roared triumphantly.

"Who is... the murderer?" Mayor Pierce asked in a daze.

"Does Miss Monica have any obvious hatred with anyone?" Anila asked, "I wish I could kill her and be quick."

A moment of silence.

"Hans..." After a long while, the crowd spit out such a name, "Hans has never wanted to marry Monica, and he has said it several times in the tavern, and he wishes that woman would die quickly."

"If you want to tell me this, it might be Alice. It's because of Monica that she almost can't be the mayor's wife."

"Impossible," Anila said. "It must have been a man who kidnapped Monica, and there are no other footprints around."

Everyone looked at Pierce in unison.

Mayor Pierce's face flushed, then turned pale, and his hands shook.

"Where is Hans?" He asked tremblingly, "Bring me that unfilial son!"
