Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

Around noon, after running around on errands on and off all morning, Odys, feeling a little tired, arrived at the public carriage station to catch a ride.

Only after he sat down in the carriage did he begin to reflect on the gains he had made this morning.

Just as Odys had anticipated, there were indeed techniques to running in combat; when fleeing, one had to pay attention to positioning, trying to avoid being caught by the pursuer.

When chasing, one had to have a certain amount of prediction, and not just blindly follow the person in front.

Federer's teachings had benefited Odys greatly. If he were to encounter that kind of fast-running enemy again, he wouldn't end up chasing for ages without catching up.

These running techniques reminded Odys of "Lingbo Micro Steps," but unfortunately, that was a fictional martial art and didn't offer much to learn from.

Returning to the herbalist shop, Odys had lunch and was about to head to the backyard.

Just then, a customer came to buy medicine, and the shop assistant Kaina immediately stepped forward and asked, "What do you need?"

The customer seemed a bit lacking in vital energy: "Sunflowers."

Odys glanced back and saw that the person was a man in his thirties, but he looked listless, as if he hadn't rested well for a long time.

He also noticed that the other person's complexion was faintly gray, and he looked as if he had been poisoned.

So, while Kaina was fetching "Sunflowers," Odys pinched his temples and activated "Spirit Vision."

Odys rarely came into contact with things like undead spirits, so he rarely activated "Spirit Vision." At this time, after the ability of "Spirit Vision" was activated, his eyes became deeper, and the customer in front of him seemed to become a lot more illusory. At the same time, he looked as if he was layered on top of each other, and the colors of the organs of the body could also be seen clearly.

Odys immediately noticed that the other person's spirit body had some wisps and strands, like cotton-like black mist, wrapped around it.

These black mists had already begun to affect the health of the customer's organs, making the colors of those organs look a little dull.

Odys quickly made a judgment: This was a reaction to being affected by some dark magic, but these spells were very simple and not difficult to solve.

He took another serious look at the customer, confirmed the other person's condition, and then closed "Spirit Vision" by pinching his temples, and said to Kaina and the customer who were about to complete the transaction, "Wait a minute."

Seeing that the two people were slightly startled and looked at him, Odys continued, "Your complexion is already gray. Ordinary 'Sunflowers' won't be very effective. I suggest you use 'Golden-edged Sunflowers,' and also buy some 'Midsummer Grass' to soak in water and drink."

Although Odys was not a pharmacist, he knew how to counteract the effects of this kind of dark magic.

The customer was easy to talk to: "Okay, okay, then I'll buy 'Golden-edged Sunflowers' and 'Midsummer Grass.'"

Odys then said to Kaina, "Two 'Golden-edged Sunflowers' and 200 grams of 'Midsummer Grass.'"

While Kaina was fetching the herbs, Odys chatted with the customer, asking where he lived and finding out that he lived at 166 Anas Road, Hilton Borough.

He also learned that he had been experiencing fatigue and lack of energy for about a week. Not only him, but also several neighbors around him had similar symptoms.

Yesterday, one of the neighbors shared that burning "Sunflowers" at home could relieve these symptoms, so he came to buy "Sunflowers" during his lunch break from work.

After seeing off the customer, the shop assistant Kaina said, "Sir, someone came to buy 'Golden-edged Sunflowers' this morning. I remember that he also seemed to live in Hilton Borough, but I didn't ask which street specifically."

Odys realized that this was definitely not a coincidence. He first drew a portrait of the customer from just now, and then, with the help of Extraordinary abilities, drew a portrait of the customer from this morning.

Then he wrote a letter and asked Kaina to find a taxi carriage on the street and send it to the Backlund Mechanical Research Society.

He was just an informant, so of course he wouldn't investigate himself. It was enough to provide clues and let the people from "Mechanical Heart" investigate.

After Kaina returned, Odys went back to the backyard to check the progress of the "Arrows of Fiery Flames". Kaina had done a good job with the carving steps, so Odys began to use spiritual materials to prepare the coating.

Most of the spiritual materials that Odys had ordered from Viscount Kelton were to be used on these "Arrows of Fiery Flames".

Odys personally completed this step. After preparing the coating, he began to apply it to the magic circles on the parts.

This was another relatively tedious procedure, but Odys didn't have anything else to do today, and planned to finish the 11 "Arrows of Fiery Flames" as much as possible tomorrow, so that he could get the payment and final payment for the two orders.

......

South Bridge Borough, inside an apartment building.

Hugh Dillcha quickly came to the third floor from the stairs. This apartment was considered spacious, and there weren't any messy things piled up in the corridor.

The public washrooms at both ends of the corridor were also cleaned, so there was no urine smell like in the East Borough apartments.

Hugh came to the door of Room 309, checked her three-edged stiletto, and then reached out and knocked on the door.

It had been more than a week since she received the commission from the "Hound," a member of the Mysticism Research Society, and it wasn't until last Friday that she had some clues.

Of course, in the past week or so, she hadn't only been busy with this commission, she had also been busy with some other commissions. The "Hound's" commission was just a matter of looking for clues along the way.

According to the information given by the "Hound," the deceased was called Bruce. The people he had met during his lifetime were basically on the information provided by the "Hound."

Until last Friday, Hugh learned through her own channels that someone had inadvertently seen a man in his twenties climbing into Bruce's house through the window one night last month, and the two seemed to have talked for a long time.

Hugh first found the eyewitness, then drew a portrait based on his description, and after searching for two days, someone finally recognized the young man in the portrait.

That man was called Edgar and lived in Room 309 of this apartment.

Hugh was here today to confirm this. As long as Edgar did live here, she would immediately notify the "Hound" of this news.

As for the reason for the visit, Hugh had already found it. Edgar had borrowed usurious loans from the boss of the Black Moon Bar, and she would say that she was here to collect debts.

If Edgar questioned her level of debt collection because of Hugh's height and appearance, Hugh didn't mind giving the other party a lesson and transforming into a real debt collector.

After Hugh knocked on the door, there was no response from inside. Just as she was about to knock on the door again, she suddenly smelled a faint smell of blood coming from inside.

She was stunned for a second or two, then quickly made a decision, pulled out the three-edged stiletto, and kicked the door open.

As soon as the door opened, Hugh first saw the young man lying on the ground. It was Edgar, the person she was looking for, but the other party was already a corpse.

Hugh didn't immediately enter the door, but looked at the environment in the room.

Each apartment here has two rooms, one large and one small. The large room is the living room, dining room, and kitchen, and the small room is the bedroom.

At this time, Edgar was lying on the floor of the large room, and he died from being stabbed in the heart with a sharp weapon. There were no obvious signs of fighting.

Suddenly, Hugh's eyes narrowed. The corpse on the ground twitched, and the blood showed no signs of coagulation!

These signs indicated that Edgar had not been dead for long. Perhaps he had just been killed before Hugh knocked on the door.

And from just now until now, there had been no major movements in the room, which meant that the murderer was likely still hiding in the room.

Thinking of this, Hugh closed the door with the three-edged stiletto. She was not a policeman, and she would not rush in to catch the murderer at this time in order to show justice.

There is no mistake and one head and one hair and one content and one in and one look!

Hugh pretended not to notice and quickly retreated to the stairs and went downstairs.

Suddenly, she felt a pair of eyes staring at her. Looking back, there was no one!

But Hugh knew that her feeling was right!

So she quickly came to the street and was about to jump into a taxi carriage to leave when she suddenly thought that if she just walked away here, she would expose that she was aware of the murderer.

Hugh glanced at the two policemen patrolling in the distance and quickly went over to tell them that she had seen someone stealing on the third floor of that apartment building.

The police were about to take Hugh to identify the thief, but Hugh's not-so-tall body suddenly exuded a very dignified aura: "You go yourselves!"

The two policemen seemed a little guilty and said in unison: "Okay, okay, we'll go ourselves!"

After getting rid of the police, Hugh got into the taxi carriage.

If she encountered such a murder case, the police would definitely find Hugh again in the future, or even arrest her directly.

But Hugh had been a bounty hunter for more than a day or two. At this time, of course, she had to use the employer to let the "Hound" help her explain this matter to the police.

After getting into the carriage, Hugh keenly noticed that the pair of eyes were still watching her.

She realized that the other party was targeting her and must take some measures, otherwise, once the other party had a chance, they would definitely arrest her and interrogate her.

She definitely couldn't go home like this. Forsi's ability to escape on her own was good, but the ability to "open the door" could not take other people away.

Hugh began to consider which other friends could help, but the person who had been following her was likely a "Middle Sequence" Extraordinary, and there might also be helpers.

No one Hugh knew had such strength.

At this time, she suddenly thought of the "Leader" of the Mysticism Research Society. The attendant had once said that if she needed help, she could go to the gathering place for help.

So she said to the coachman: "Go to 199 Hairun Avenue."

......

West Borough, 51 Henry Street.

Odys was concentrating on stopping and applying spiritual coating to the "Arrows of Fiery Flames" when he suddenly felt a wave of spirituality. He looked down and saw that his pocket watch was lit up.

Someone else has come to the Mysticism Research Society for help?

Audis took a deep breath, got up and moved around a bit, then went out, took a carriage, and headed to 77 Hilton Avenue.

In the basement there, he changed into the "Leader's" clothes and used the "Space Array" to retrieve some extraordinary weapons that the "Leader" had previously used from the "Wilderness of Knowledge."

Then, using the "Teleportation Array," he arrived at 199 Hairun Avenue.

Emerging from the basement, Audis saw Hugh in the living room and instantly understood: "The 'Hound's' request has attracted some trouble?"

Hugh was first stunned, not expecting the "Leader" to know before she had even explained.

She breathed a slight sigh of relief: "Yes, so I came to 'request' the Leader's help."

Audis thought for a moment before saying to one of the attendants: "Go to the alley on the left side of the opposite street and shout..."

Speaking of which, he turned to Hugh again and asked: "The 'Punisher's' informant, the one in the 'Hound's' information that is now dead, what was his name?"

Hugh immediately replied: "Bruce."

Audis hummed in acknowledgement and continued to the attendant: "Just say the 'Leader' here has key information about Bruce and invite them in to talk."

Hugh was stunned again, unable to understand the "Leader's" intention in doing so.

But Audis was very clear, because of the Kapin case, Military Intelligence Section 9 still had people watching the "Leader."
