Witch Hunter from Entry to Unemployment

Chapter 80 Bad events in the outer city

As a hunter of the Hunting Court, it is natural to find out the origin of this medicine that is poisoning the people and completely cut off its sales.

Several knights also expressed their loyalty and said that those behind the scenes would be brought to justice.

"I think the Augustman family is very suspicious, especially the nephew who came back to be a young master out of nowhere. I heard that he lived in the same house? I think it is necessary to investigate that place."

Lina has always been a person of action and does whatever comes to her mind.

She said that there was a problem with the four Dukes, so she had already started to think about investigating the Four Dukes.

In her opinion, Li Xun is very suspicious and a good springboard.

Although she is careless and reckless, she is not completely brainless.

It is naturally impossible to seize the Duke's Mansion directly, but there is no problem in investigating a crime scene from eighteen years ago.

But her idea was once again blocked by her knights.

But it was obvious that the higher-ups of the Knights did not like the third princess very much.

There are many missing cases in the outer city, and the backlog cannot be dealt with. After all, the number of guards is limited, and there are only a lot more cases in Xinghui and Xingcai cities.

So most of the time, Lina stayed in the royal capital and served in the Knights.

She said that she had nothing to do with the royal family anymore, but the girl also knew in her heart that bloodline was not something she could cut off just because she wanted to.

Linna has been deeply disgusted with this group of knights who are only busy fighting for power and profit all day long, and feel that everything is fine just by standing around the palace. The honor and face of the knights have been lost to them.

In the courtyard of the public security station, a tall steam truck has been started. Apart from its somewhat ugly appearance, this is indeed a very good means of transportation and can travel throughout the Starry City in a very short time.

"Does anyone else have a different opinion? If not, let's go now!"

Several knights looked a little embarrassed on their faces, but they also breathed a sigh of relief because the third princess changed her mind.

"And Miss Iris, who has always been strong, also looks soft and weak in front of the young master. She is obviously dominated by him, so I think it is impossible for Miss Iris to hide what the young master is doing."

"He won't get involved, but Iris will. As the deacon of the Augustman family, she controls many of the family's businesses. Maybe her serving the young master is just a cover."

"Okay, okay, after all, you just don't want me to investigate people related to the Duke's Palace. I'm not the kind of unreasonable person. I know all your difficulties."

"No matter how you say it, the blessing ceremony will be in two days, so from now on..."

"Let's go, take me to the scene to see."

"This is the Capital of Stars, the capital of the Kingdom of Stars. If someone dies in the capital, don't we, the defenders, even take a look at it?"

"What makes you so nervous? Tell me slowly."

Lina's eyes suddenly became serious. The appearance of large-scale human corpses with strange dead shapes was usually related to sacrifices.

"Your Highness! Your Highness! A large-scale bad incident occurred in the outer city."

The knights boarded the carriage behind the front of the car in an orderly manner, and the metal armor made a clear clanging sound in action.

And those gang members and street gangsters who hang out in outer cities are also very knowledgeable and will even help maintain law and order.

Logically speaking, this kind of news should not be reported directly to Lina. She has no substantial rights in the Knights and is more like a temporary worker.

But after all, she is a princess and a transcendent. There are still many people who are willing to help with such a small matter as passing on news.

It must be said that Lina's analysis is indeed reasonable, but the more so, the less the knights can let her investigate.

If it were in the past, some people would have sneered at this kind of thing. Who would dare to hold a sacrificial ceremony under the eyes of the goddess in the capital of stars?

But what happened eighteen years ago slapped everyone in the face, so much so that they still haven't been able to catch their breath.

"Your Highness, the reason why the young master suddenly returned to the royal capital is most likely because he became a favored one. Otherwise, do you think that with Lady Rosalind's character, she would let him come back alone?"

"Could the headless corpse be related to extraordinary power? Damn it, who is so bold?"

However, when major festivals are approaching, the outer city will also increase manpower for control.

"Your Highness taught you this."

Most of the time, the outer city is in a state of chaos. As long as no lives are lost, the guards will turn a blind eye.

Many times, Lina even thought that she might as well become the leader of the knights herself.

Before the knight could finish speaking, a guard wearing a black uniform and carrying a spear rushed in in a panic.

She gave the order to the guard, but a knight beside her had a different opinion.

Linna was in a bad mood. If she had known earlier, she would have been better off staying at the Hunting Court station and acting with her partners.

The third princess looked at the people around her with some annoyance. She had just vowed to fight the evil to the end, but she gave up just as she was about to investigate.

"The patrolling guards discovered more than a dozen headless corpses in a place in the outer city, which caused quite a commotion."

Today's Hunting Court is more like an ordinary adventurer's guild. It no longer deals with emergencies of public safety around the world, but completes various bounties and commissions.

"We still don't know what the specific situation is. The Holy See attaches great importance to it, and inquisitors have already gone to the scene. The chief of the security station and the top brass of the Knights should also have been notified, but it's unclear what specific actions they will take.

Know."

Of course, even if someone is killed, as long as it is dealt with cleanly and there are no reporters or corpses, no one will care about it.

"Calm down, calm down, Your Highness, that young master just came to the Capital of Stars, how could he have anything to do with medicine?"

Although she is a witch hunter, there are very few tasks that witch hunters need to perform nowadays.

"Your Highness, since the Holy See's judges have already gone to the scene, don't we need to go? They are more professional in handling these matters, right?"

He was afraid that if she stayed in the Knights for a long time, she would win over people and threaten her status.

As Lina entered the cab, accompanied by a burst of mechanical rotation and the sound of fluctuating air pressure, the steam truck drove out of the courtyard and headed towards the outer city.

Along the way, it naturally attracted the curious attention of many people.

But soon, passers-by became accustomed to the strange scene and were once again immersed in the festive atmosphere.

Although it is getting dark, the day has just begun for the city of stars, which is known as the city that never sleeps.
