Mage Joan
Chapter 204: Mystery investigation
Sending George Vassar away, Joan followed Miss Martha back to the living room. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Xiao Miao, A Chi and Teacher Benny sitting in front of the coffee table, chewing snacks in their mouths, joking with each other.
The old housekeeper who served them for tea and snacks had a very ugly complexion, and looked down upon these "street gangsters" who were born and talked of vulgar manners.
Without these three weirdos claiming to be "Joan Vida's friends", the old-fashioned Mr. Philip Downs would not allow them to enter the living room that only served VIPs.
"Yo! Joan, you really are here!"
Xiao Miao was the first to see Joan enter the living room and jumped up to say hello.
"How is the work going smoothly?"
"It has been solved, thanks to the help of Ms. Martha and Mr. Vaasa, a total of four ground worms were hunted in the garden. In addition, I would also like to thank Teacher Benny. After he reminded me, I returned to school and checked some Information about ground worms, prepared in advance to restrain this monster, and later these preparations come in handy." Joan said gratefully.
Joan sat down on the sofa opposite Xiao Miao and asked curiously, "I heard you guys made a special trip to interview Miss Martha?"
Xiao Miao nodded, her eyes naturally glancing at the young and elegant lady who followed Joan into the living room.
"Joan, why don't you introduce me to your friends?" Miss Martha took the coffee from the housekeeper and smiled at Joan with an inquiring look.
"Uh, this is Sister Miao, a field reporter from the "Leiden Post" agency, Ah Chi is her colleague, and teacher Benny is an editor and columnist of the newspaper agency."
Joan then introduced Xiaomao to them, Miss Martha, the hostess of the Castis family.
After the host and the host greeted each other, Xiao Miao took the initiative to explain his intention.
Shortly after breaking up with Joan yesterday afternoon, the three of them returned to the club for the regular meeting.
The editor-in-chief of the newspaper, Ms. Miranda Fisher, showed them the letter from readers received this week.
Several of these letters were similar in content, all of which revealed to the newspaper that a large and extremely aggressive monster appeared in XX Farm or XX Ranch, frequently attacking livestock and even farmers, disturbing the local residents.
Ms. Miranda thought that this was a very valuable news subject, so she assigned three teams of Xiao Miao, A Zhi and Benny to investigate the inside story of the pest disaster, collect relevant materials, and prepare to produce a series of special reports.
The three Xiao Miao received the task assigned by the editor-in-chief, naturally thinking of the deworming commission notice posted in the "Red Tomato" tavern, they came to Castis Manor the next day, hoping to interview Miss Martha, who was pestered.
The janitor noticed these three strange faces and presumed that they were not good things.
After all, catmen, ratmen, and kobolds are marginalized people in this civilized society where humans occupy the absolute mainstream. They rarely have a chance to get an upright career, and most of them make a living by stealthy practices such as chickens and dogs. The janitor cold encounter is also reasonable.
Xiao Miao, they can’t win the trust of the gatekeeper because they wear their mouths. When they are about to be kicked out of the door, the clever Achi suddenly thinks of Joan. Mr. Joan Vida is a guest in the house?"
The janitor hesitated for a long time, and finally reluctantly admitted that there was indeed such a young mage as a guest in the manor. He came in the morning and has not left yet.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Miao jumped with joy, and immediately told the gatekeeper that he was a good friend of Joan. Joan could prove her identity with the two companions.
The concierge was dubious and hurried to report to the old housekeeper Mr. Downs. In this way, Xiao Miao finally struggled to cross the noble threshold of the Castis family, and received VIP-level hospitality.
"I'm sorry, my servants have short-sightedness and wronged you. I apologize for you." Miss Martha said earnestly.
"You're too kind, dear lady, if you don't mind, can you tell us about the monsters in the garden? This will not only help the special report that the newspaper is planning, but also help remind the readers to prevent pests. ."
Teacher Benny is the only "cultural man" among the newspaper's trio, and only he has enough knowledge and training to talk to noble ladies like Martha Castis.
As for the little meows and creaks who came from the street gangsters, the conversation is really not on the table. On this occasion, they can only fight and record.
"Speaking of those monsters, I'm still a little scared..."
Miss Martha told the story about the pests in her garden.
Joanne also helped Miss Martha to add some details, such as the last digging worm he and Major Vasa hunted.
Teacher Benny waved his shorthand while listening. When Miss Martha finished, he had written two pages of notes.
"Mr. Banny, you just said that the newspaper received news that similar to the bugs that appeared in my garden in other places, there are signs of flooding in other places. This is really an unprecedented rarity. I really can’t figure it out. Where did the pest come from?" Miss Martha wondered.
"This is the key question that we need to investigate." Teacher Benny pushed his glasses and answered with words: "This morning I went to the Municipal Archives to check the relevant records of natural disasters. Since Leiden City was founded nearly a century ago, from No such plague has occurred."
"Take the earthworms, indeed, it is not uncommon in our area of Yalfheim, but most of the earthworms live in the depths of the prey-rich jungle, even if they occasionally dive into farmland or pastures to disturb, at best one or two The affected area is relatively small, it is difficult to imagine that such giant insects will spread into disasters, let alone break into the garden where there is no prey.
"Every sign shows that the pest that affected the large plantations on both sides of the Eifen River is probably not a natural disaster, but a manipulative conspiracy."
"Teacher Benny, is there any other evidence to support your guess?" Joanne asked curiously.
Teacher Benny exchanged glances with Xiao Miao and A Che, and then lowered his voice and replied: "Actually, before coming to Baiwu Manor, we have interviewed some people who wrote to the newspapers. Most of them are self-cultivators or small farmers. Some of the farm products have suffered from insect pests and are worrying about it."
"In the course of interviewing these breaking news people, we found that most of the interviewees mentioned the same details. They or their family members have witnessed a huge wasp like a dragon flying quickly over their own fields!"
