Path of light

Chapter 544 545. Investigation

Roy stood on the highest observation deck of the city hall, looking at the magic airship flying farther and farther away, and the figure standing on the bow gradually disappeared from sight.

Moira is rarely so willful, but once she has an obsession, she is not easily persuaded...

Roy turned around and walked slowly down the steps from the observation deck.

He walked into Mu Lin's office and asked Mu Lin, who was signing documents:

"Which assassin squadron is currently on vacation in Plateau City?"

Mu Lin stopped, inserted the quill in her hand into the ink bottle, raised her head and said to Roy:

"Second Squadron of the Assassin Regiment."

Roy nodded, sat down on a chair across from Mu Lin's desk, and said, "Notice, their vacation is officially over from now on, report to the city hall immediately!"

"You heard it! Please inform me quickly..."

Mu Lin waved to the adjutant standing aside and said helplessly.

"As you command, Lord Archon."

The adjutant agreed and quickly walked out of the office.

…

Mu Lin asked Roy curiously:

"Now all the evidence points to the fact that the mixed-blood elf collector is selling fake winter thorn grass. Originally, I planned to ask the mixed-blood elf guard soldiers to go to the free market to conduct a wide-net investigation, but now...how are you going to investigate?"

"Since you have decided to intervene, you must do it thoroughly." Roy said.

Turning his head to look out the window, the gray Gazai Mountains fell into Roy's eyes. He said to Mu Lin:

"I heard that winter thorn grass was found in the snowy mountains in the northern part of the plateau. Woods has now left the city of the plateau and went to the snowy mountain area in the northern part of the plateau to conduct investigations. I estimate that he can catch up with the people heading to the land of the ancestors of Gazan before dark. Supply team."

Mu Lin sat back on the chair, her mouth opened in an 'O' shape, and she looked at Roy with a puzzled expression.

"You sent Woods out to look for winter thorn grass in the snowy mountains of the northern plateau?"

"To be precise, Woods wanted to go to the northern part of the plateau to look for winter thorn grass." Roy defended.

Roy waited in Mu Lin's office for a while, and Deputy Commander Tennyson walked in quickly from outside and gave a military salute to Roy and Mu Lin.

"Tennyson, are you on vacation with the Second Squadron this time?" Mu Lin supported the table with her elbows, intertwined her fingers, and rested the back of her hands on her pointed chin, curiously asking Deputy Commander Tennyson .

"I originally planned to wait for the second squadron to finish their vacation, then cross the wilderness and head to the Kaltim Mountains." Deputy Commander Tennyson explained to Mulin, then turned to Roy and asked: "Boss Roy, You are in such a hurry to find us...what are your orders?"

Roy waved his hand and signaled to Mu Lin to say first: "Let Mu Lin introduce to you what the current situation is, and then I will assign you a task."

"Actually, it's a commercial dispute between the Silver Moon Elf merchants and the mixed-blood Elf collectors, but it's a bit big... That's the specific situation!" Mulin introduced it to Deputy Commander Tennyson.

"Now we need the dark moon elf warriors of your second squadron to keep an eye on the elf merchants involved and prohibit them from leaving the plateau city. This is the first thing..."

Roy paused and said:

"The second thing is to investigate the cronies around the Silver Moon Elf merchants and other mixed-blood elf collectors in the free market to see if you can find out anything new..."

"Yes, Boss Roy!"

Deputy Commander Tennyson received the mission and left Mullin's office.

…

On a street near the free market, Deputy Commander Tennyson and several Dark Moon Elf warriors were hiding in a grocery store.

A dark moon elf warrior ran in from the street, pointed at the mixed-blood elf walking quickly from a distance, and whispered in Tennyson's ear:

"Boss, he is the elf we are looking for. I just saw him having a close conversation with the Silver Moon Elf businessman."

"Take him back."

Tennyson strode out of the grocery store and walked directly towards the Assassin Regiment's military camp.

Four dark moon elf warriors walked quickly to the street and surrounded the mixed elf follower from four directions.

By the time the mixed-blood elf follower noticed that an elf was staring at him, the Dark Moon elf warrior had already begun to take action.

Two dark moon elf warriors held down the arms of the mixed elf servant. The dark moon elf warrior who followed behind stretched out an arm from behind him and strangled his neck tightly.

The mixed elf followers had no time to struggle before they were coerced by four dark moon elf warriors to quickly leave the busy street.

The entourage of the Silver Moon Elf merchant was taken away with panic on his face.

When he saw the standard armor on the Dark Moon Elf warriors, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Four Dark Moon Elf warriors brought the follower to the Assassin Regiment's military camp.

When this mixed-blood elf follower saw Deputy Captain Tennyson, he was able to salute properly.

This shows that the psychological quality of this mixed elf follower is quite acceptable.

Deputy Captain Tennyson sat on a chair on the high platform, glanced down at the mixed-blood elf entourage, and said straight to the point:

"I sent someone to invite you here this time just to talk to you about your boss. I heard that your boss bought a fake winter thorn grass from a mixed elf collector. Can you tell me about it? What happened?"

The mixed-blood elf attendant kept his head lowered, with an embarrassed smile on his face, and whispered:

"Even if you are the Sheriff of Plateau City, I can't talk nonsense, but if you just describe what happened, that's okay."

Hearing what the mixed elf entourage said, Deputy Captain Tennyson frowned with dissatisfaction.

The mixed-blood elf follower said again:

"At that time, I followed our boss and wandered around the free market, just to communicate more with the collectors. Because there were no magic herbs to buy in the free market, we could only find ways to persuade the collectors to change their minds and use Magic herbs are sold to us."

"Actually, a few days ago, we were able to buy some high-grade magic herbs. It may be due to the lifting of the ban on the plane. Recently, we simply can't buy any magic herbs at all."

"We met the mixed-blood elf collector who came to us on his own initiative. He was holding a magic-sealing box in his hand. Our boss was certainly very happy when he saw a magic herbal collector come to our door..."

The attendant talked a lot, but without any useful information, and his eyes flickered, showing that these long speeches were prepared in advance.

Tennyson did not continue to ask.

"If what you said is all true, you may not see me again. If some of what you say is made up by you, maybe the next time you see me, you won't have such an opportunity. Let you talk... If you suddenly think of something in the past few days, you can come here to see me at any time. "

After finishing speaking, Deputy Captain Tennyson waved to the Dark Moon Elf warrior next to him, and a Dark Moon Elf warrior took the mixed-blood Elf follower out of the Assassin Regiment's military camp.

"Boss, are we going to let people go like this?" the cronies standing aside said to Deputy Commander Tennyson.

Deputy Commander Tennyson looked at the crony with a cold face: "What else do you want? Do you think you can cut off his fingers one by one like you would treat an enemy on the battlefield?"

"Well... I thought I would at least get a few whippings." The henchman chuckled.

Tennyson pointed to his head and taunted his cronies: "No matter what you do, you'd better use your brain more."

Then Deputy Commander Tennyson walked out of the military camp.

Tennyson came to the free market, and then launched a series of investigations into the mixed-blood elf friends around the herb collectors.

When Tennyson revealed his identity, the responses from the mixed-blood elf collectors still surprised Tennyson:

"He and I are not familiar with each other. We usually collect magic herbs separately and there won't be any intersection..."

"I've heard of his name, but we're not very familiar with him!"

"He was willing to sell magic herbs to the Silver Moon Elf merchant, and there was a complete break between the two of us. I have never seen his winter thorn grass."

"You are talking about the traitor who is willing to sell magic herbs to Silver Moon Elf merchants. How could I know him? I feel a little unlucky when I hear his name!"

Tennyson discovered that the mixed elf collector seemed to have offended all the potion collectors in the plateau city.

No elf was willing to help him exonerate him, and even bluntly stated that he hoped to make the mixed elf collector receive the punishment he deserved...

Only after the investigation reached this point did Deputy Captain Tennyson realize how troublesome this matter was. Originally he thought it was just a simple transaction dispute, but now it seems that this mixed-blood elf collector has caused public outrage.

…

The magic airship passed through the Sudarso Mountains, the crisscrossing mountains, hills and mountains in the southern part of the plateau, and the Qianren Mountains. It flew in the wind layer for a day and a night, and finally arrived at the sky above Sun Island Bay before dawn.

Moira was still sleeping in bed, but Miss Tiffany had already smelled the sea breeze, and she couldn't lie in the bathtub anymore no matter what.

She put on her shark pattern dress and stood on the deck, thinking of what Roy said to her before leaving...

At that time, Miss Tiffany asked Roy:

'What do you want? ’

Roy paused for a moment and asked Miss Tiffany in a low voice:

‘Can you hypnotize? ’

Miss Tiffany's eyes widened and she said speechlessly:

‘Who did you listen to? I'm a water magician, okay! Succubi are proficient in hypnotism, but if you want to put people to sleep and slip into dreams, Siren Ketsuna is probably better at it. ’

‘You mean that Jiezena can sneak into other people’s dreams and investigate the truth? ’

Miss Tiffany nodded and said:

'Almost, she can bring the elves who hear her singing into her dreams...'

Roy's eyes suddenly brightened a lot and he said excitedly:

‘Tiffany, if I want to invite her here...will she come over and help me with this? ’

It was this conversation that led to Miss Tiffany and Moira's impromptu trip to Sun Island Bay.
