MTL - Necromancers Are Frantically Stationing Troops In the Apocalypse

Chapter 350: Kill someone

“I heard that a lot of ships have been calling the port recently, and the number of people in the tavern is also slowly increasing.” Millicent said, pouring him a glass of water.

Then he stood aside politely.

“Well, I can see that your business is pretty good.” Wu Heng praised.

 You can see some of it from entering the door.

Although the business of the pub is not as good as that of the pubs on the main street, it seems to be doing pretty well.

 Early in the morning, the bartenders were cleaning and replacing wine barrels.

Millicent's restrained expression was a little happy, and he whispered: "Thank you, sir."

Wu Heng signaled that there was no need to stand, and waited for her to sit down by the bed before continuing to ask: "Are there many people staying in the hotel here?"

  “Some, but not much.”

Wu Heng nodded, "Have you found anyone suspicious?"

Millicent frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "The tavern has just opened, but I didn't find anyone suspicious."

 What had attracted Millicent's attention before was the wanted notice on the association.

 Have general appearance and characteristics.

Wu Heng continued: "I need you to help me keep an eye on a few people. If you find anyone approaching, let me know."

Millicent nodded, "Okay, sir!"

"There are three people in total. One is close to me in height and has black or dark hair. The second is nearly three meters tall. His weapon is a long-handled war hammer. The other is of normal height and his weapons are double swords." Wu Heng According to the corpse, it was described again.

After Millicent listened carefully, he looked at the other party with some doubts.

 If I remember correctly.

The two personal attendants before the Archdeacon had this appearance.

　In addition, the first one has black hair and is about the same height. It sounds like he is checking himself out.

 But she had no intention of asking more about what was told.

 He agreed directly, "It's my lord, I will pay more attention to it."

“They will definitely use some disguise. I don’t know what their original appearance is. If their body shape is close or similar, please notify me immediately.”

"good!"

 Wu Heng was still very satisfied with Millicent's attitude.

 Then he took out his tablet and pulled up the photo of the ‘Inspection Envoy’ Kalema, “There is another person who looks like this.”

 The photo was secretly taken by Kalema at the door when he was investigating association information.

 Although he only has a side face, his appearance features are still very obvious.

 In addition, he always wears mage robes, so he is easily identifiable.

Millicent took the tablet and looked at the face on it.

Wu Heng added, "He is from the association. I suspect that he is related to a case. After you see him, just pay attention to who he comes in contact with and report it to me afterwards."

Millicent nodded seriously, "I remember, sir."

"Well, just try your best." Wu Heng continued: "Choose three private rooms and two accommodation rooms. I will arrange some arrangements. If there are any doubters, they will be placed in these rooms to monitor their conversations."

Millicent didn't quite understand, and asked cautiously: "Sir, do you want to choose a few empty rooms?"

“Well, you choose it first, and then I will explain it to you.”

Millicent stood up and said, "I'll take you there."

Wu Heng put on the [Transformation Veil] again and walked out of the room together, heading towards the private room next door.

 In the private room, there are round tables, side cabinets, and some potted plant decorations.

Wu Heng took out the monitor he scrounged from the original electronics store and installed it on the wall behind the side cabinet.

In this world, this kind of thing is not afraid of being discovered. Even if it is tuned out, one would not think that it is a monitoring device.

 Then, the two went to the remaining private rooms and accommodation rooms.

 Everything is set up and we return to the previous room.

Wu Heng took out a new tablet, connected it to several listening devices, demonstrated the operation, and said: "This is a monitoring device. If there are any suspicious people in the future, arrange for them to enter those private rooms, and then Use this kind of thing to eavesdrop on what they say."

 After connection, a slight electric sound will be emitted from the tablet.

As you get closer, you can faintly hear the footsteps, as well as the sound of the bartender opening the door, moving tables and chairs, and cleaning.

“Who is that fat woman who came just now? She is so fat.”

 The sound came out of the tablet and it was very clear.

Millicent was a little surprised that such a thing could really hear the sound of the private room in the distance, and looked at the man next to him carefully.

He explained in a low voice: "They usually like to talk nonsense, don't blame them."

Wu Heng didn’t say much, it was just a disguise.

 The sound of the two people talking was still coming from the tablet.

“Looking at it this way, the boss is really a beauty. It would be so comfortable to sleep with her in my arms.”

“Many of the people who come to the tavern come here for the boss.”

“That’s right, I’m afraid that one day someone will get drunk and cause trouble in the tavern.”

Millicent's face began to turn red.

With a pair of eyes, he looked beside him carefully and explained softly, "That's how it is in a tavern. Some guests will talk nonsense after drinking, but we are fine here. Nothing happens all the time."

Wu Heng nodded and continued to tell her about the various functions and how to retrieve some photos.

Millison also learned quickly.

 Those who are very proficient have already mastered how to use it.

 “This is for you to use first. If you find it’s not working, go find me.”

 “Thank you, sir, I will take good care of it.”

 Close the tablet, Wu Heng continued to ask: "Are there any difficulties in operation?"

Although it is a tavern established to gather information, if it cannot be run, or if it is only superficial, it will still arouse suspicion from others.

The best thing is to be like the Old Barrel Tavern, which is a very popular tavern in itself. Secondly, to handle some intelligence work.

Millicent thought for a moment and said: "There are gangs nearby who have collected protection fees twice. In addition, the menu in the tavern does not have many types, and it is difficult to find higher-level chefs. Finally, there are some who like to cause trouble after drinking."

 Three problems are not difficult to solve.

 But it’s not easy for me to come forward directly.

Wu Heng said: "Wait for a few days. After a while, I will arrange for someone to come and help you."

 “Okay, sir.” Millicent thanked him again and continued to ask in a low voice, “Philippa didn’t cause you any trouble?”

“Don’t worry, she is doing well. Some time ago, she helped the association arrest two wanted criminals. Her contribution will be recorded in the files.”

 “Then she’s not in any danger!”

 “There’s no danger, you don’t have to worry.”

　Judging from the news sent back by Philippa, the Iron Barrel Pirates used the money they received last time to carry out all-round armed preparations.

 In addition to some ballista equipment on the ship, a lot of crew members have also been recruited.

 It is not comparable to the big pirate group, but it is not something that ordinary forces can bully.

Millicent also showed a soft smile and saluted again, "Thank you for taking care of her."

“Well, do it well, and you and your daughter will have a better life in the future.”

 “Thank you, sir.”

 After everything was explained, Wu Heng also stood up and said: "Let's keep things like this. You should also pay attention here. If there is any news, just inform me. You don't have to do anything dangerous."

"clear!"

Maintaining the image of a bloated woman, Wu Heng opened the door and walked out directly.

Millicent walked to the door of the tavern, saw him boarding a carriage, waved his hand and said, "Come back when you have time."

“Hmm!” Wu Heng put down the curtain and the carriage left.

 The bartender came over.

He asked curiously: "Boss, is this your friend?"

Millicent glanced at the direction the carriage was going, turned to look at him, and said, "You two, go wipe the cellar and save yourself from having nothing to do."

 “Huh? We have something to do!”

 “Go quickly!”

 Seeing that Millicent was really angry.

 The two of them went to the cellar to clean up in despair.

Millicent also returned to several rooms and rearranged the monitoring equipment.

 “The association’s props are really magical.”

 …

 The carriage creaked and creaked forward.

We returned all the way to the central area and stopped at the central square.

Wu Heng was still dressed as a woman. After paying the fare, he entered the association hall, walked through the corridor, and walked towards the office and study room of "Xilagui".

When there is no one in the corridor, take off the veil and change back to the original appearance.

Knocked lightly on the door, opened it and walked in.

 The childlike elf deputy deacon was frowning at the document in his hand.

 Looking up, he glanced up and saw that it was Wu Heng who came in. He was obviously a little surprised, "Why are you here?"

“I have nothing to do at home. Come and see you.”

Sheilagui rolled her eyes at him angrily, "You usually don't come to the association, but now that I've given you a day off, you started running over here."

Wu Heng smiled, sat down on the sofa nearby, and asked, "Any clues?"

“I found some, but there are no clues that are beneficial to you.” Sheila picked up the documents and tapped on the table.

 “Is it convenient to talk about it?”

"It's nothing. The first point is that we asked other people from the Bucks Chamber of Commerce. They said that the steward and the woman shouted fiercely that night. We did hear a scream in the end, but we didn't expect that something happened." Sheila Gui said. , his face turned red.

 This matter was heard by the coroner.

Just because of the nonsense shouting, even the final cry of being killed was regarded as a joy. Sheila Gui glanced at him and continued: "There is only one person's shoe print in the window, and the size of the shoe print does not match the three people. It is suspected that besides the deceased, there was a fourth person at the time, two teams from the association. , We are continuing to investigate other people in the business group and the people in the tavern, and we should send new clues in the evening. "

 The fourth person?

How come the more people investigate the matter, the more people do!

 Furthermore, there has been no apparent progress.

It’s not surprising. After all, the person who died yesterday and now it’s morning again, there won’t be many clues.

Wu Heng smiled and said, "Well, thank you for your hard work, everyone."

"You can still laugh, no matter how little evidence you have, this matter will always be blamed on you!" Sheila Gui said.

"How can it be!"

 “Why is it impossible! If you can’t catch anyone, you will always have to bear this crime.”

“That’s right, it’s up to you whether I can clear my name!” Wu Heng said.

Sheila Gui rolled her eyes at him again and said, "In the morning, I went to the Old Barrel Tavern and asked about the situation."

 The old wooden barrel is the territory of the six-armed prophetess.

 You can spend money to buy some information.

 But it is limited to the harbor and Beacon Street.

 “Any clues?”

"There are no clues related to this matter, but on the day you were suspended, there was a restless guy who landed on the island with the caravan." Sheela's tone became serious.

"the wanted?"

“No, his name is ‘Kerimu’, a level 16 vagabond who earns bounties by relying on wanted notices from the association and the Snake Emblem Consortium.”

 “A decent man!”

"There is a record of killing a member of the dwarf royal family and a deputy deacon of the association, and he was not listed on the association's wanted list." Shiragui glanced lightly.

 Kill the members of the royal family of the country and the deputy deacon of the association.

Moreover, he has not yet been listed on the association’s wanted notice.

It is one thing that the opponent's strength is not low.

 More importantly, he knows how to circumvent some rules and will not be listed on the wanted list after killing someone.

Wu Heng’s face suddenly turned ugly.

 At this time, I landed on the island and had the experience of killing the deputy deacon.

 Good guy.

 Having to make people suspicious, he came for himself.

 “Is being a vagabond a profession?”

“Well, it’s a melee-type profession with strong combat capabilities.”

 “Is he very powerful?” Wu Heng asked.

Xilagui said slowly: "The Lone Ranger makes a living by killing various bounty targets, and he has a great reputation in the circle. Without external help, I don't have the confidence to face him."

  In other words, with the strength of ‘Silla Rose’, there is absolutely no confidence that it can defeat the opponent.

 Being able to be appointed deputy deacon at least proves the potential and talent of ‘Sheila Gui’.

 I have no confidence at all. It seems that the other party is indeed very powerful.

"You mean, he is likely to come to the island to deal with me?" Wu Heng said.

"possible!"

Wu Heng scratched his head and asked, "Do you know where he lives? I'll let the skeleton chop him down first."

Xila Gui said angrily: "I haven't found out where he is, but I'm not sure he is targeting you. Let's check the situation first."

Wu Heng was just talking, and he couldn't kill the opponent blatantly.

 But level 16 also gave him a sense of crisis.

 Hand on, or let yourself attack by surprise, you are not afraid of this vagabond.

“Do you know what he is good at and what his weaknesses are?” Wu Heng asked.

"I don't have too detailed information. I will tell the deacon and ask him to transfer some information from the Whisperer. I will tell you then."

"good!"

After talking about this matter, Wu Heng continued: "By the way, I'm here to discuss something with you."

"What's up?"

Wu Heng said directly: "I want you to lead a team and search every tavern. I suspect that the person who framed me is hiding in the tavern."

Sheela frowned and said, "You want to exhaust us to death. There are so many taverns, and the association is too domineering, which will affect its image in the minds of the residents."

"As for the taverns in the Beacon District and the main street, just say that you have found useful clues and start investigating. People from other business groups will trust the association more when they see that we are so attentive." Wu Heng said.

Sheela Gui still frowned and pondered for a moment.

He agreed anyway, "I'll tell the deacon and we'll mobilize more teams to help."

 “Okay, then I’ll go back first.”

Wu Heng stood up and left the study, and Xila Gui also took the compiled documents and went to the deacon's study.

 …

corridor.

Wu Heng stood there and waited for a while, and heard the voice of the ghost "Glenda" in his ears, "There is no one in his room."

 “Hmm!” Wu Heng snorted lightly, and then walked towards the direction of the association dormitory.

 Still served as deputy deacon of the association.

 Even if he was suspended, no one would stop him along the way.

He went directly to the third floor, in front of the dormitory where the special inspection envoy ‘Kalema’ lived.

　Seeing that there was no one around, he used the bronze key to open the door to a crack and inserted a listening device.

  Close the door again.

Glenda flew into the air and controlled the monitor to fly to the roof of the shed.

"what are you doing here?"

 Suddenly, a voice came from the stairs.

Kalema came back directly from downstairs with his guards and looked at him doubtfully.

Wu Heng's heart tightened, but he still said: "Inspection envoy, I came to find you, but I didn't expect you to go out."

Kalema looked at him suspiciously, then glanced at the door, "What do you want from me?"

"You can use that truth-telling rare thing to ask me if I have killed anyone. Wouldn't it be a faster way to prove my innocence?" Wu Heng said directly.

"So that's what happened." Kalema smiled and continued to explain: "The Bucks Business Group is also paying attention to this incident. We said we didn't do anything, but we still can't prove it. We need to catch the murderer or come up with something substantial. The prop is just a rare item within our house, so I just say it doesn’t matter, because I’m afraid the people from the Bucks Business Group won’t recognize it.”

"Why don't you admit it? Just show them the effects of the strange objects!"

Kalema looked at him, still calm, "Don't be anxious, rest for a few days, trust the association, and trust Sheilagui and the others, they will find the murderer."

Wu Heng hesitated for a moment, then said: "Okay then, I'll go talk to Sheila Gui again."

 “Well, keep calm!”

“The inspector wants you to be busy, I’m going back first.”

"good!"

Wu Heng went downstairs, Kalema looked at the direction he left, opened the door and entered the room.

 …

 The room is empty.

 Kalema holds a staff and releases several detection spells one after another.

He frowned slightly and said, "You really want to ask me about the strange objects?"

 Perplexed in his heart, he released spells from every corner again and checked some of his items.

 After confirming that everything is OK.

He just sat on the bed, looking thoughtful.

 …

 Get out of the association.

Glenda flew back from a distance and got directly into the body.

 The pictures in the room are also shared in the mind.

Glenda placed the monitoring equipment on the beams of the roof, and then hurriedly flew out of the window.

  So as not to be noticed by the other party.

Wu Heng took out the equipment and put on headphones to monitor.

 You can hear the shaking sound of the robes and soft murmurs.

 Other than that, I didn’t hear any other sounds.

 Whether the looted listening equipment is an old model or is it the same.

 The size is quite large, about the size of a power bank, with a transmitting wire.

　　Not as big as a button in the movie.

 Otherwise, you can find a way to put it on his body or something he carries with him.

"It depends on whether you have anything to do with this matter."

 …

Black Crow's Nest Tavern, private room on the second floor.

The door opened, and a man holding a rapier and wearing a sailor's turban walked in.

He wears a loose half-sleeved gown over his leather armor. On his bare left arm, you can see numerous tattoos of poisonous snakes, ghost faces, and rats.

 Entering the private room, the man glanced around the room.

 Sit down near the door and say directly: "Are you ready?"

“He has now been suspended for investigation and can take action.”
