Three-stream detection simulator

Bruce Wayne himself must have heard it, but he was talking to another cop and had no intention of looking back. And Inspector Harvey Bullock was almost convinced... Shit! !

What a heinous criminal! Provoke the police after killing someone! After provoking the police, they also slander the enthusiastic citizens who called the police!

"You want to say that you and Wayne who came home early in the morning ran into the body at the same time, and he called the police. He is innocent, so you can also clear the suspicion?" Anger condensed into a contemptuous sneer on the detective's face, "Yes. The murderer likes to hang around his 'work'. How do I know that you didn't abandon the transport and then come back to see the results? "

Maybe you're assuming the murderer is a moron.

Hercule opened his mouth and closed it again, shrugged for a while and said, "It's hard to say. If the surveillance in Wayne Manor doesn't work well, I really won't be able to clear my suspicions."

With his luck, this kind of bad luck is entirely possible.

People cannot sit still and wait for death. Hercule was very sure that he did not kill anyone and did not want to be regarded as a fool, so he took every possible opportunity to actively save himself: "Officer, who is that poor man who was shot in the forehead and has been dead for several days?"

A quick glance at the body in the morning showed that the body must have been dead for at least two days based on the ambient temperature and skin color. The deceased was an adult man with a strong build. The cause of death was a gunshot wound to his forehead. His expression was horrified, there were strangulation marks on his wrists, and a broken little finger on his left hand was very fresh.

And that face, Hercule had no recollection of it.

——Of course not, he just traveled to this morning.

Detective Harvey Bullock turned a deaf ear to his questions, but the middle-aged policeman in a long trench coat and glasses who had been chatting with Mr. Wayne not far away looked over from a distance.

After another two minutes, the police officer responsible for investigating the surveillance of Wayne Manor walked over quickly and reported to Detective Bullock in a low voice with a grimace.

Detective Bullock: "Broken?! You said it was such a coincidence that the camera happened to be broken today??"

Hercule: "..."

Take a look.

"Actually, it was smashed by someone, sir. I don't know who it was."

Inspector Bullock looked at Hercule suspiciously. A few seconds later, without saying a word, he strode closer and brutally handcuffed Hercule.

**

Gotham PD.

Hercule leaned back in his chair and sighed, feeling that the situation was a little complicated. He has no clue now. Can he expect the assigned lawyer or the Gotham Police Department to find evidence in his favor before he goes to court?

If I had known better, I should have called the police first, the owner of the manor, Bruce Wayne. He was quick and slow, and the only one left was a suspect.

But he didn't know the police phone number and didn't have a mobile phone.

I still remember that when he just opened his eyes, he didn't know where he was or what he was going to do. His only choice was to walk towards the only building in sight, hoping to find someone to ask about the situation.

At the same time, Bruce Wayne, who returned from the banquet, parked his sports car far away and got out of the car. Hearing the police chatting, he said that his butler was on vacation and no one would open the door for him. He saw it. The corpse in front of the door, and Hercule standing next to the corpse.

What a coincidence.

Unlucky is really unlucky.

What's even more unfortunate is that the police fished out a small cart transporting cement from the Gotham River at the entrance of the manor. This seems to confirm Detective Bullock's speculation: Hercule moved the body alone, went to the river to hide the transport, and then returned to the place where it was placed.

Oh, by the way, Bruce Wayne was also cleared of the suspicion of collaborating with him in committing crimes.

Hercule wanted to ask the inspector for a moment, did I really look like a fool?

But he held back.

Of course the police asked him nothing.

Hercule estimated that he would be stationed at the police station permanently, so he comforted himself: at least food and accommodation would be provided.

The black-haired young man who had just undergone repeated questioning curled up in the space enclosed by the chair and the wall. He closed his eyes as if he was indifferent to the current situation. In fact, he was studying the game system again.

The word 'third-rate' at the top of the interface was still so annoying, and Hercule's eyes hurriedly moved down.

In addition to the attribute panel, the system also contains active and passive skills, as well as records of missions he has done so far.

The game "Third-rate Detective Simulator" has a total of six main attributes, and each of them except the luck value corresponds to several branch skills.

Some of them can be actively used by the player, such as the 'celestial induction' on the inspiration attribute branch, which can randomly obtain clues, and the attack skill 'one hit' on the physical attribute branch; some are passive skills, such as literally very Easy to understand 'Man of Steel' or 'Sharp Senses'.

These skills are locked at the beginning of the game. Only after the relevant attribute points reach a sufficient value can it be possible to light up from lv.0 to lv.1 or upgrade from lv.1 to a higher level.

Hercule's character's intelligence is at full value, which naturally meets the requirements... However, the bad news is that lighting up and upgrading skills requires skill points, and these necessities are only provided by the main quest.

——Hercule, never done the main plot.

If you click on the mission record next to it, you will find that his main mission is still in the first chapter. The huge "in progress" logo seems to be the game producer's silent plea: Come and take a look at our main mission! It’s really interesting! Let’s do the main line! Damn you!

The list of side tasks is so dense that the titles and review logs combined can fill seven science fiction novels.

At the moment, Hercule has 0 skill points. In the game, skills are used to reduce the difficulty of passing levels. These skills are dispensable for technical players with excellent patience. As an emotionless machine for brushing branch lines, he has never paid attention to them.

The good news is that in order to take care of the newbies, as long as the attribute points meet the standards, the first two basic skills on each branch line are available at level 1. The intelligence branch corresponds to two passive skills, "extensive knowledge and strong memory" and "logical reasoning".

After crossing, they have changed from a string of data to real "knowledge" or "ability". Although "extensive knowledge and strong memory" is only lv.1, it provides Hercule with the common sense of this world and the knowledge of major industries, which is about the same as that of an undergraduate.

"Logical reasoning" is the ability to integrate clues, allowing Hercule to deduce the truth faster than others when there is enough known content.

Another attribute that barely reaches the baseline is agility. After reaching 30 points, he has the first passive skill on this branch line: "Acute Senses".

Unlike "Well-informed and Strong Senses" and "Logical Reasoning", there is a small judgment mark next to "Acute Senses". After clicking it, a new panel popped up in front of Hercule, with only one sentence written on it:

[You feel someone is watching you. ]

Caught off guard, Hercule, who was dozing with his eyes closed, almost broke out in sweat.

Then he suddenly realized:

He is in the police station now! He is still a suspect!

Isn't it normal for someone to be watching him!

The number of useless skills has increased.

Hercule thought about upgrading his skills when he had time. The attribute points were already so crooked, so he had to save them from other aspects. So the focus went back to the main quest. He didn't quite remember what the original first act of the main quest of the game was, but it was definitely not the current one:

[Chapter 1, Section 1: Mechanical Heart

Quest description: After successfully saving the life of a bionic man, you have been thinking about his suggestion of "becoming a detective". However, before you make up your mind, you traveled through time and space and came to a strange city in the 21st century - "Gotham". By chance, you accepted the commission of Ms. Shania Ford to investigate the cause of death of her husband Corbin Ford.

Mission Reward: Skill Point x1, Special Souvenir ‘Mechanical Heart’, Gotham Area Reputation +100】

A special reward appeared in this passage, a background introduction, a location, two characters, and a commission.

Hercule focused his attention on the line of words of the special souvenir ‘Mechanical Heart’ and saw the explanation given by the game system.

[Mechanical Heart: It is said that a special craftwork with artificial souls is hidden, a masterpiece used by humans in the future to steal the power of God. It enlightens the mind, and after using it, you will get the opportunity to communicate with the spirit of nature, but it may also cause neurasthenia due to overactive brain.

——Can the technological products created by humans to fight against nature really get the favor of nature in return? 】

Simple, speak in a simple way.

He skipped the confusing soul text and looked at the effect directly:

[Attribute ‘Inspiration’ +200%, duration: 5 minutes, cooldown time: 24 hours]

Hercules calculated with his fingers that his current inspiration was 15, +200% is 45, just close to the human average.

Damn, this attribute panel is outrageous.

However, after the inspiration reaches 45, he can activate the two basic skills of this branch line, especially the second active skill ‘Heavenly Sensing’!

‘Heavenly Sensing’ can randomly obtain clues in the game. If the function remains unchanged in reality, it will be very effective in solving the current dilemma. However, in order to obtain inspiration props and skill points, you have to do the main line first, so this becomes a chicken-and-egg problem.

Hercules (had to) choose to rely on himself.

He continued to read.

Gotham City is the city he is in now.

Corbin Fordham is undoubtedly the corpse that appeared this morning.

At present, Shania Fordham may be the main factor that caused him to appear next to the corpse.

‘Successfully saving the life of the android’ is the background story of the game. Hercule has an impression of this part. He remembers that this part is to explain why the male protagonist suddenly decided to choose a freelance profession that had long been discontinued in the future world.

However, combined with the camp tendency set by the player, the behavior pattern of Mr. Detective is very subtle.

You say he is a kind and loving good man. He treats humans and non-humans differently in the plot.

But the panel clearly says human supremacy, but he still saved the androids of the opposing camp without taking a penny.

Before crossing, when Hercule saw the text description, he wrote two big words on his notebook: Tsundere.

After crossing, Hercule was unwilling to admit this.

However, his flexible brain is very honest. When he saw the main task, he naturally thought that ‘Mr. Hercule Hugo, who was stranded in a foreign land, sympathized with the widow whose husband had died, and thus got involved in trouble’.

... He should change his name to Cao Cao.

Well, if nothing unexpected happens, his hope of leaving the police station will probably be pinned on someone else's wife. I hope that the client, Ms. Shania Fortanmore, can find out that the detective she hired was imprisoned because of low luck.

Sure enough, a policeman came in soon and knocked on the table to remind Hercule to look up: "Do you know this woman?"

He handed over a photo of a young, beautiful woman with brown hair and blue eyes, but a particularly haggard face.
