Mage Joan

Chapter 1796: Stone statue in warehouse

If the imperial currency reform fails, the 1 million gold banknotes held by Professor Moriarty for Joanne, as well as the gold banknotes purchased by the professor himself and Mrs. Josephine, will eventually be reduced to a pile of **** wipes. Waste paper that is too hard.

Qiao An, as a holder of large amounts of gold banknotes, did not want the mining burglary to be exposed even for his own personal considerations, and had sufficient incentive to participate in the investigation of the case, arrest the thieves, and completely eliminate a big hidden danger.

"Mr. Hodge, I understand the cause and effect of the matter in general. If you can trust me, let me investigate the case of the theft of coarse crystal." Joan took the initiative to take the pain.

"Dr. Vader, this matter is all for you. If you need to raise it, I and all my colleagues in the mining area must cooperate fully."

There was a smile on Mr. Hodge's clouded face.

"Of course, we can't let you work hard! If you can crack the case and recover the stolen goods before the news leaks out, the company will pay you a due commission, 10,000 gold Durga or a pound of magic crystal, It’s up to you! How about you, Dr. Vader, don’t you think I am too stingy?

Faced with the sincere look of the president, Joan rubbed his hands, almost unable to help whistling.

Wow~~~Ten thousand gold Durga? !

Look at this... Oops, it's strange to be embarrassed!

Brother Klein was right, Mr. Hodge was too open!

...

Saying goodbye to Mr. Hodge, Joan followed Klein to warehouse 5 where the thieves gang last appeared.

Grey Bird, Gomodo and Shorts have been waiting here in advance. After the meeting, the Grey Bird opened the door lock and led everyone into the warehouse.

"Dr. Vinda, the mining area is divided into ten partitions in total, each partition operates independently, and each partition is assigned to a warehouse."

"Warehouse 5 has maintained the state at the time of the incident. It was the way it was when I took someone to break into the door last night." Grey Bird said softly.

Joan nodded intently. The scene of the crime scene is well preserved, which is indeed more conducive to collecting clues.

There are a total of 4 large safes made of cast steel in the warehouse. The fronts are painted with bright red paint numbered 1 to 4. Each safe can hold one ton of coarse crystals.

Normally, when a safe, such as cabinet 1, is filled with coarse crystals, it will be escorted to a surface factory for refining. The empty cabinet will not be sent back until the armed **** returns.

It takes three to four days for a round trip from the abyss mine to the refinery in the port. During this period, the mine continued to operate, and the coarse crystals extracted from the ore were stored in a spare safe, so four safes rarely appeared in the warehouse at the same time. Joan happened to be a coincidence today.

"In the previously stolen warehouse 3 and warehouse 8, only one safe was fitted with coarse crystals at the time of the incident, but the other three empty cabinets were also opened, showing that the thief could not see through the steel plate with a thickness of one inch. Whether they are equipped with coarse crystals can only break their luck." Klein introduced to Joan.

Qiao An reminded him that after carefully observing the four safes in warehouse 8, they were all pried open.

In addition to the combination locks made by dwarf craftsmen, a "secret lock" was added to the safe. It is not easy for a thief to open these two locks in succession. Judging from the method of picking the lock, Joan suspects that at least one of the thieves is good at 2 rings Arcane spellcaster.

Joan walked to the safe #1, opened the door and glanced inside, the magic light flashing in the empty cabinet.

"A'magic alarm' is installed in the safe?" Jo Ann turned back and asked Grey Bird.

The blind woman nodded her head and frowned and replied: "It stands to reason that even if the thief can successfully open the two cabinet locks, the magic alarm will be triggered when the cabinet door is opened. However, only the warehouse 3 was stolen that night, there was an alarm, and then 8 No alarms were triggered when warehouses #5 and #5 were stolen."

"This shows that the thieves have learned the lesson, and stealing techniques have become more and more proficient." Joan speculated.

"Fortunately, the four cabinets in warehouse 8 on last night were empty, otherwise it would be impossible to guarantee that they would be succeeded again by the thieves." Grey Bird sighed. "If that is the case, I'm afraid I have been dismissed."

Joan heard the worry in her words, comforted but didn't know what to say, simply kept silent and focused on observing the scene of the crime. Compared with verbal comfort, detecting burglaries as soon as possible can really help Grey Bird and her security team get rid of the embarrassing situation.

None of the four safes left blood stains for Joan to use, so he decided to switch to a more realistic direction of investigation and asked the Grey Bird: "Where is the petrified security guard?"

"Here, Dr. Vader please come with me."

The gray bird brought Joan to the corner of the warehouse. Sure enough, a stone statue stood quietly, his left finger pointed forward, his right hand clenched the knife handle, and his face was irritated.

Seeing the posture and expression of the stone statue, Joan could easily imagine that the stone-blind barbarian warrior was eager to step forward to stop the other party from stealing when he sneaked into the warehouse. Unfortunately, he had been turned into a stone statue before he could pull the knife.

Joan draws 4 "Sid Mana" for the purpose of "breaking the enchantment", raises his hand and gently pats on the back of the stone statue, a soft magic power is injected into the opponent's body, and the turquoise rock body quickly transforms into a flesh and blood body .

The stone-blind barbarian warrior seemed to awaken from a dream, and the first time he regained his vitality, he roared sharply and suddenly pulled out his sword.

"Garoo, calm down!" the Grey Bird scolded.

The warrior named Garu froze for a moment, quickly closed the knife into the sheath, and bowed to the gray bird with shame.

The gray bird waved angrily and said to him: "How much do you know about the group of thieves who broke into the warehouse last night?"

"Sister, I can't tell the specific appearance of the thief, I can only confirm that there are nine members in this gang-at least nine people broke into the warehouse."

Joan frowned slightly, feeling somewhat depressed. Garou, a "witness", is a born blind man. Although his hearing and sense of smell are well developed, he cannot recognize details such as skin color and appearance. I am afraid that he will not provide much valuable clues.

With a hint of fluke, Joan asked Garru: "Can you describe in detail the impression the thief left you."

The young stone-blind barbarian warrior bowed his head for a moment and replied: "The nine thieves who broke into the warehouse were all short, and no one was more than four feet."

"Well, this is pretty good news." Schultz shrugged. "If Brother Garoo feels credible, it can at least show that there are no compatriots of our dwarf family in the thief gang."

Adult dwarves are about four and a half feet on average, and rarely are under four feet.

Klein glared at Schultz angrily, indicating that he would not intervene and concentrate on Garu's testimony.
