I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

The noise outside did not affect the three people in the room.

Enola asked: "Professor Velvet, where do you think it is better to start investigating first?"

"Let's start with the victim's body."

As Weber spoke, he took out a pair of white gloves and put them on his hands, then walked gently to the bed where the corpse was placed, his eyes once again focused on the shocking and heartbreaking sight.

"It's very divided."

Thoroughly dismembered, the torso and limbs neatly cut apart.

"The clear cross-section shows that the person who dismembered the body was quite skilled, and the victim himself did not resist. It is currently impossible to determine whether he was killed before he had time to resist, or whether he was killed and then dismembered."

"It can be seen from the edges of the skin and muscles that the deceased died earlier than I thought."

"There are no traces of the magic seal being transplanted."

Weber, who was in working mode, was focused, and even the astonishing beauty of Golden Princess did not affect his movements. His technique was skillful and fast, reminiscent of an experienced surgeon, and Enola sighed as he watched.

"For a magician, this is really a rare sight. Is Professor Velvet very interested in this aspect?"

"I'm not interested, I have to be interested. Because I don't have any talent in magic, I can only make up for it in other ways."

Calmly collecting body parts, calmly examining every wound, calmly - saying words that are very cruel to every magician.

"Science is also an art, and it is also beautiful. It's a pity that most magicians don't realize it, or are unwilling to admit it." For some reason, the old woman standing on top of countless magicians said such a thing.

Weber didn't respond, focusing on piecing together the corpse. Finally, he reached out to the breathtakingly beautiful girl's head placed in the center of the bed. When his hand touched the girl's small ear, Weber's hand stopped.

"Um?"

"Did you find anything?" the old man asked.

"Golden Princess...has no eardrums in her ears...and it doesn't look like they were removed the day after tomorrow."

"About this, I know a little bit about the inside story. Many magic methods are refined by sealing off one of the senses, and the same is true for Iseluma's secret technique. And it is used more deeply, and even engraved into the genetic traits of future generations - —Golden Princess has no eardrums, and Silver Princess has no retina. However, because of the existence of magic, this will not affect their lives. They can listen, see, and communicate with others in other ways."

Although magic is gradually being left behind by modern science, there are still many advantages that only magic has.

What Inolai said just now - using magic to replace lost senses is the simplest example. For example, pronunciation information is directly input into the brain without going through hearing, and images are directly input into the brain without going through vision. Although the level of this type of magic is not low, Izeluma is a branch of Balu Yereta after all, so this kind of thing is not difficult for them.

However, if in a few decades, modern science can directly implant chips into the brain, then magic will inevitably experience another wave of decline.

"I see. In other words, Golden Princess's lack of eardrums is an indispensable condition for achieving that beauty." Hearing the old woman's explanation, Weber nodded thoughtfully, "So, Golden Princess who appeared last night Maybe we can find out who it is.”

"Are you trying to search through the eardrum?" Enolai responded quickly.

"That's right, even for Izeluma, it's not easy to replace the missing eardrum."

"Instead of asking me about this, I should ask my stupid apprentice. She is the expert in this field. Do you want me to call her over?"

"Miss Aozaki Orange? Don't worry, it won't be too late to visit you after I finish the on-site survey."

Weber said as he left the bed belonging to Golden Princess and began to investigate the room itself.

Jin Jinji's room is about the same size as an ordinary coffee shop. The main furniture in the room includes a bed with a canopy, a desk with a jellyfish-shaped lamp, and several paintings by Impressionist masters. There are some elementary magic books on the elegant bookshelf. No matter which item it is, it is a luxury product worthy of the name Golden Princess, but in terms of variety, it gives people the feeling that it is only equipped with the necessities of life.

There is a window and a door in the house. Although there is a skylight for now, no one can get in or out from there. If you want to take that into account, you might as well think about the magic that can penetrate walls.

The door has been damaged, it was Gray's work. As agreed, Lenis and Gray came to visit Golden Princess, but no matter how hard they knocked on the door, no one responded. Feeling something bad, Lenis immediately ordered Gray to break the door, and then saw a scene that made people feel chills from head to toe.

After careful investigation of several fragments, it is not difficult to find that the door uses a "magic lock".

Magic locks, as the name suggests, are locks made with magic. Although it has many shortcomings such as its high cost and difficulty in using it without magic power, its security is indeed top-notch. It is also used in the treasure house of the clock tower headquarters. It is a relatively common type of lock in the magic world. The biggest feature of this kind of lock is that it corresponds to the wavelength of magic power of an individual. In other words——

"Golden Princess's room can only be opened by Golden Princess herself. In other words, it is a 'secret room murder' - is it really a design with unknown meaning?"

In the conventional sense, secret room murder is an impossible crime, but an existence like a magician cannot be measured in the conventional sense. Taking this secret room as an example, if you want to kill the people inside from outside the door, you need to use any number of methods. A complex fluid operation or air operation is enough to kill people invisible.

"Is it necessary to create such a secret room? Or is it just a coincidence?"

Weber just squatted and fell into deep thought, but after thinking for a while, he still had no clue. When he decided to give up, he found that Shenji, who had been standing as a stake, came to him at some point and was lying on the fragments of the door panel, sniffing something.

"When did you get into Sven's habit?" The young man with animalistic blood likes to use smell to identify things most.

"Because I found something strange."

Carefully scrape the ground with your gloved hand to gather some kind of powdery object together, then cut off the thumb of the other glove, pour the powder in and wrap it up.

"Although there is only a little bit left, you can feel the unique atmosphere of period objects. The history is definitely more than a thousand years old."

After hearing what Shenji said, Weber also took it seriously. He took out a pair of magnifying glasses and stared at the ashes as if he was possessed. Finally, he even put a little bit of it into his mouth with his hand.

Shenji couldn't help but complain: "They say I look like Sven, aren't you the same?"

"..."

Weber ignored Shenji, moved his mouth for a while, spit the powder into his hand, and whispered softly.

"...Ah, that gives me some clues."

PS: First the empress, then Fujino, both failed in their prostitution. Today is Fujino’s last day. Should he top up the money? Tangled, tangled, I haven’t spent money on krypton in gold since 2018, because the depth of the warehouse is enough, and I have less and less desire to spend on krypton. From an intellectual point of view, a single four-star pool is too cost-effective. From an emotional point of view, Fujino is so cute. Do you like Fujino or not?
