Just then, the door of the fortress was opened, and a handsome man with gorgeous clothes and blond hair walked in.

Seeing Dick, the man was slightly stunned.

And from behind came Koby's surprised voice: "Little Odin, my brother, you are finally back!"

Koby walked around Dick and hugged the blond man tightly.

The man called Little Odin also hugged Koby with his backhand, with a look of joy: "You have been in the Knights for a long time, and finally thought of coming back. I have been out for a few days, and I heard that you are back, so I hurried back."

"Let's talk later." Koby said happily.

Then, he turned to introduce the blond man: "This is Dick, a demon hunter. Our castle has a little trouble at the moment, and he will solve it."

Little Odin smiled and said: "Hello, demon hunter. I am the son of Odin III, just call me Little Odin."

"Hello, Master Little Odin." The demon hunter said in a deep voice.

"And this is the warlock apprentice. Her name is Shia, she is a quasi-warlock, and she is also here to help."

"Hello, Ms. Shia."

Odin politely performed a gentleman's salute, and Shia nodded slightly in response.

"Are you ready to go out now?" Little Odin asked.

"Yes," Dick interrupted, "We are going to the maid's house to investigate the evil spirit case."

"Do you want me to go with you?" Little Odin looked at Coby.

"No, brother. Let's do this. After we finish looking at the room, we will prepare for dinner. Can you ask the servants to arrange it?"

"Of course, you can go with peace of mind." Little Odin waved his hand.

After saying goodbye to the young master, the three of them went out and walked directly to the left in the courtyard.

On the way, Coby explained: "Originally, my adoptive father Odin III thought he was infertile, so he adopted me.

"My biological father was a soldier under his command, and he died with the Gato people in the war. And my mother has long passed away, and I came to this fortress when I was just born.

"But a year later, my adoptive father had the child he has now, my younger brother, Little Odin. Others said that it was because I brought the blessings of the gods, and Baron Odin did good deeds, that the gods gave this child."

"It seems that you are indeed a lucky person. Having a father who cares for you and a younger brother who respects you, this life can be called a good one."

"That's inevitable."

The words of the demon hunter reached Coby's ears, and joy instantly surged on his face, "And in a few days, I will take the promotion test, and then I will be able to become a true knight."

"Then I have to congratulate you in advance." Dick joked.

However, Coby did not notice the teasing in Dick's words, but nodded heavily and said "thank you" sincerely.

Dick's face was a little stunned, but he thought about it:

This child has always had a smooth life. Born in a noble family, he naturally doesn't need to rack his brains to figure out people's hearts.

Thinking of this, he was no longer embarrassed to continue teasing. After all, who would have the heart to embarrass such an innocent person?

Since the maid's residence was not far from the fortress, the three arrived outside the residence in less than two minutes.

A soldier was standing in front of the door. Seeing Coby, he hurriedly said: "Master Coby, these are the professionals you brought. Do you want to open the door now? Will the evil spirits inside be released?"

"Don't worry, no, they are all professionals, I guarantee it."

"Okay then." The soldier seemed a little reluctant, as if there was a great danger hidden inside, but he still opened the door as ordered.

Dick then spoke again: "Why don't you two go in, although I am 90% sure that there is nothing wrong inside, but..."

Hearing this, Coby looked at Xia, who replied: "Dick, I am not a weak girl. Although I have already cast a large spell at this time and cannot continue to cast another one, I can still use some tricks to help you.

"Don't worry, I won't walk around casually. I know that demon hunters hate others disturbing his investigation site. "

Kibby saw the warlock apprentice say this and nodded to Dick, "I think so too. Don't worry, I will protect Miss Xia."

"Okay. Come in with me. Remember to only walk to the door and take one or two steps into the door. Don't go any deeper."

Then Dick said no more and opened the door first.

The room was quite dim. Odin III had sealed all the windows of this room with wooden frames.

Perhaps psychologically, he felt that doing so could prevent the vengeful spirits from escaping from the room at will, so as to increase psychological comfort, although it actually had no effect.

With the sense of a demon hunter, Dick's eyes glowed slightly, and he saw the simple layout inside. There were several neatly arranged wooden beds and several small wardrobes by the wall.

And a rope was hanging on the beam above one of the beds. That was the girl's suicide rope. Where it is.

Dick walked slowly to the rope, looked up for a moment, and found nothing extra.

He walked back and forth in front of the bed twice, and then found that there was a gap in the wooden strip under the bed, which seemed to be very inconsistent with the surrounding wooden boards.

He bent down and gently shook the wooden strip. "Crack", the wooden strip broke free from the restraint of the wooden board, revealing the narrow crack inside.

Dick put two fingers in and felt an object, which felt cold and hard.

Hook one end of the object with one finger, slowly move it up, and finally hook it on the floor.

An exquisite bracelet.

"Strange." Dick said.

"This is a bracelet made of gold and jewels. It stands to reason that this girl can't afford it with her status. How could she have such a thing? And she deliberately hid the bracelet. Could it be?"

Dick held the bracelet in his hand thoughtfully and walked towards the door.

He always felt that the temperature in the room seemed to have dropped a little, and it was extremely damp and cold.

I don't know if it was because of the lack of sunlight due to the sealed windows.

The quasi-warlock and the quasi-knight saw Dick finished the investigation and hurried out of the house.

The two always felt that this room was really uncomfortable.

After closing the door, Dick looked at Coby and took out the bracelet.

"Do you know who this bracelet belongs to? Or, does anyone know who this bracelet belongs to?"

"Did you find this from Rose's maid?

"I don't live at home often, the housekeeper here should know, right?"

"I didn't expect this girl to be a thief." Coby snorted coldly.

The soldier on the side smiled and said, "Master Coby, take care. Don't worry, I will guard this place well. "

"Thank you for your hard work." Coby replied casually.

After a while, the three returned to the fortress.

When they opened the door, a rich meal was prepared on the long table.

And little Odin sat on a chair in the middle of the cave, resting his chin on his hand, staring at a plate on the table, in a daze.
