Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery
#86 - Mr. Gal, a man of honor
At this moment, Ashborn's yard was in chaos. The fire in the yard not only hadn't been extinguished, but was also spreading.
Many servants from the surrounding villas came to help with buckets and other items, and shouts rose and fell.
The villa was also ravaged by fire, and flames often spewed out of the windows, making it impossible to go in and rescue items.
The key was the three gunshots just now, which made everyone in the yard run around with their heads in their hands, looking for cover. Now no one is in the mood to rescue valuables.
Only Ashborn couldn't run away, so he could only kneel in the yard and beg for mercy from the person with the gun on the roof.
After the firefighters basically hid, the yard was no longer so noisy.
Odis was waiting for this opportunity. He shouted at Ashborn: "Someone asked me to give you a message, saying thank you for your concern, but he likes peace and quiet, so don't send anyone to find him!"
"He also told me to shoot you three times, but not to kill you, but you must know that the fourth shot will definitely hit your head!"
Ashborn quickly said: "I know, I know! Thank you, Mr. Jia... Thank you, Mr. for giving me another chance."
Odis smiled, didn't say anything more, but retreated to the center of the roof, so that the people below couldn't see him.
Ashborn's bodyguards also responded at this time, tearing down the iron gate at the entrance of the yard to use as cover to protect Ashborn.
At this time, the fire upstairs was even bigger, and the sound of glass being burned and bursting continued to come.
One of the bodyguards hiding behind the iron gate smiled and said, "That sniper is a fool. Unless he jumps down from the roof, no one can go downstairs from the fire now."
After all, Ashborn was a person who had seen great storms. After being safe at this time, he quickly calmed down: "He was sent by that gentleman, I guess he has already escaped."
The bodyguards were all stunned, only the three extraordinary bodyguards seemed to understand what their employer meant.
Afterwards, Ashborn sat on the ground, staring blankly at the villa wrapped in raging fire, not knowing what he was thinking.
...
Wood District, Minsk Street.
Even under the cover of the mist, Klein standing on the clock tower could see the fire in the distance. He smiled and said, "Mr. Jia's prediction was quite accurate."
...
Ashborn's Villa.
A few minutes later, a hurricane suddenly blew on the street. The wind was so strong that people couldn't open their eyes. The fire in the yard was extinguished just like that.
But the fire in the room was still burning. At this time, the water in the pond in the yard suddenly seemed to have life, flowing to the shore by itself and into the house.
Under the action of those water, the fire in the house was quickly extinguished.
At this time, the hurricane stopped, and people opened their eyes one after another, but they were a little disbelieving in their eyes. The fire was extinguished just like that!
A carriage with the "Storm Emblem" drove into the yard, and the "Punisher" squad members in police uniforms quickly took over here.
After briefly understanding the case, the "Punishers" came to the roof to look for the arsonist's traces.
First of all, they didn't find any remains, indicating that the arsonist had escaped. This place had been burned by flames before, and no traces were left.
There was no way, the "Punishers" had to use the sealed artifact "Spirituality", but the surrounding natural spirits didn't know anything.
Then they used the sealed artifact for divination, and the result was that they didn't get any information either.
This was a bit strange. Theoretically speaking, even if the arsonist had the ability to counter divination, they could still divine a little information.
Moreover, generally extraordinary people with this ability do not have the ability to make natural spirits ignore their actions.
If both are possessed, at least the other party is a Sequence 6, but would a Sequence 6 do such a thing as arson?
If a certain Sequence 6 was plotting Ashborn's property, it would be reasonable. After all, this level of wealthy people can only hire some "low-sequence" extraordinary people as bodyguards.
They mainly rely on the help of the church. For example, Ashborn is a believer of the Storm Church, so when encountering enemies at the Sequence 6 level, he will definitely ask the Storm Church for help.
Because such believers generally donate a lot of money to the church, the extraordinary people of the church also have the obligation to protect them.
Even if it's too late to ask the church's extraordinary people for help, after the case occurs, the church's extraordinary people will also lock the suspect based on clues, and in some cases, they can bring him to justice.
If the murderer cannot be caught, a reward and wanted order will be issued, and the murderer will have to live in a dark corner from then on.
So in general, ordinary "middle-sequence" wild extraordinary people would not take this risk.
The "Punishers" investigated here and realized that they could not find clues by extraordinary means, so they began to ask the people at the scene one by one.
After asking, the "Punisher" team members discovered a strange place. The speed of the fire from the beginning to being out of control was too fast!
The "Punisher" squad member who asked the question shouted loudly to the bodyguard in front of him: "Think about it again, are you sure you didn't remember it wrong?
"The fire in the villa was out of control in just over half a minute?"
Unless there was a violent explosion, how could the fire get out of control so quickly? But none of the people at the scene heard an explosion, and the gas lamp switch was also turned off at the first time, so there was no gas leak.
The bodyguard was so frightened by the "Punisher" team member's question that he shrank back. The team member's aura was like he was about to rush up and fight him.
He thought about it carefully before confirming: "That's right, it only took more than half a minute!
"After the fire broke out on the first floor, we began to protect the Ashborn family from going out from the second floor of the villa.
"After arriving in the yard, the fire was already out of control."
So the "Punishers" had the first judgment: the arsonist was likely a "Pyromaniac", or an extraordinary person of a higher level in this pathway.
Then, they learned the content of the arsonist's shouting to Ashborn, and they quickly concluded: Ashborn's enemy hired an extraordinary person to take revenge.
But when asked Ashborn, the millionaire insisted that he didn't know who the enemy was, and couldn't provide any clues.
Just as the "Punishers" were preparing to use sealed artifacts to obtain clues from Ashborn, Ashborn suddenly said that he would donate 1,000 pounds to the Storm Church and asked them not to continue the investigation.
According to some customary rules between the church and wealthy believers, at this time, the "Punishers" could not use sealed artifacts to force confessions from believers, and they had to respect the believers' choices.
The "Punishers" realized that this case was likely to become a mystery.
...
At this time, Odis had already taken a taxi carriage and returned to the stronghold in the dilapidated apartment.
No mistake, one first, one hair, one inside, one capacity, one in, one look!
Of course, he still got off three streets away, and used the cover of night to walk back here.
The cloth bag in Odis's hand, as well as those tools for committing the crime, had been put back into the "Knowledge Wilderness" using the "Space Magic Array".
Just now, Odis used the movable "Teleportation Magic Array" hidden in his coat to leave the roof of the villa.
After his improvement, this magic array no longer has the dizziness of previous use, and now it can be used twice a week.
After he appeared more than ten kilometers away from Ashborn's villa, he quickly recovered his state and hid in a dark corner, putting his coat and all his weapons back into the "Knowledge Wilderness".
He even had time to change his hat and returned to the stronghold leisurely.
Then he used the sub-array from the stronghold to return home and secretly lay back on the bed.
In the darkness, Odis looked at the ceiling and showed a smile. The feeling of personally punishing the opponent was quite good.
Soon he calmed down and fell asleep by meditating.
...
Wood District, 15 Minsk Street.
After Klein had breakfast, he decided to go to the Kragg Club. This might cause him to miss the person sent by Earl Ashborn to cancel the commission, but it could create the illusion that he was running around to investigate Mr. Jia's whereabouts, so as to refuse to return the 10 pound deposit.
Just as he was taking the public carriage, he bought a copy of the "Backlund Morning Post" from the newsboy, and sure enough, he found news about the fire at Earl Ashborn's mansion on the second page.
Although it happened late last night, I didn't expect the "Backlund Morning Post" to have a relatively detailed report.
However, the report said that the fire at Ashborn's mansion was caused by an explosion caused by the aging of the gas pipeline. Obviously, someone covered up the cause of the fire.
Continuing to read on, Klein saw the report saying "... Fortunately, the fire yesterday did not cause any casualties. Only people were slightly injured while fighting the fire..."
At this time, the public carriage came. Klein closed the newspaper, and while getting on the carriage, he thought to himself: Mr. Jia is a trustworthy person.
...
At this time, "Mr. Jia", Odis, was also taking a public carriage to the boxing club.
After arriving at the training ground, head coach Fedele smiled and said, "You haven't been here for several days. I thought you wouldn't come again."
After all, he didn't have much to teach Odis anymore.
Odis smiled and took out a bottle of essential oil: "This is essential oil extracted from red crown phoenix grass and several other herbs. It has a very good effect on bruises, soreness and other symptoms."
A long time ago, Audis discovered that this mysterious world didn't have medications like red flower oil. Of course, "Apothecaries" definitely had similar medicines, but the characteristics of Beyonders meant that the circulation of such medicines wasn't very high.
So, he concocted his own type of травмы oil, and the effect was pretty good, but he had never done any marketing, so his popularity wasn't very high.
Fedele was slightly stunned: "If there's anything I can help with, just say it."
Audis said bluntly: "I want to practice running."
After participating in two Beyonder fighting competitions, he realized that running required certain skills in combat, so he wanted to ask if there were any tricks.
Fedele put away the essential oil: "Let's go, follow me to the track."
