Chapter 643: Information Eaten Out
Eat, eat tin foil? Lu Jianuo, who was sitting on the side, saw Lu Mian hand the thin tin foil to Ludwig and ask him if he wanted to eat it, and was very startled.
Although Ludwig had already shown places clearly different from ordinary people in eating, and had once drunk a tube of human blood in front of Lu Jianuo and detailed the corresponding information, Lu Jianuo still felt that not everything could be fed to Ludwig, especially this kind of thing that couldn't be eaten at all.
He was just a little child!
The next second, Lu Jianuo saw Ludwig silently take the old thin tin foil, stuff it into his mouth, chew it, and swallow it.
"......" Lu Jianuo entered a state of dullness.
After Ludwig completely ate the thin tin foil, he calmly asked Lu Mian:
"Do you need to know which kind of cocoa beans were used, the specific content, the auxiliary materials added, the origin of the tin foil raw materials, the factory of production, and the person who contacted it the most?"
Lu Mian shook his head slowly:
"No need."
These were all information that couldn't be used to help find "Siso"—"Siso" contacted this thin tin foil with gloved hands and wouldn't leave corresponding personal situations. And the Patrol Force had already confirmed that chocolate with similar packaging was very common in Port Pylos, and the taste didn't have any unique places.
Answering, Lu Mian felt both funny and surprised emotions in his heart:
Can this information be eaten out?
As expected of a monster that could initially recover and get rid of the seal's restrictions bit by bit just by relying on eating!
Ludwig put on the appearance of a gourmet, and after a few seconds, he said:
"The residual chocolate has a bit of degenerate aura."
Degenerate aura? This was long-term carried on "Siso's" body, suffering from the pollution of his aura? That's not right. Unless he reached a demigod, it was very difficult for a supernatural's own aura to reach this degree. The only possibility was that he was close to losing control and was in a very deep state of degeneration. But such a supernatural's body would definitely show various abnormal details, and there was no way to go out. Once he went out, he would be discovered to be wrong and locked onto by law enforcers... Relying on the kind of human skin Bram said to disguise himself? Lu Mian was first puzzled, then asked with expectation:
"Degenerate aura from the 'Demon' pathway?"
Ludwig licked his lips, as if savoring the taste of chocolate residue:
"Yes, at least it's a 'Devil's'."
"Devil's"? Lu Mian was taken aback and couldn't help but frown.
After reading "Demonology" hard, he already knew that the Sequence 4 of the "Demon" pathway was called "Devil," which represented a demigod.
And if the degenerate aura that slightly infected the chocolate came from a "Devil," then it obviously wasn't "Siso's."
This wasn't Lu Mian's arrogance, looking down on "Siso," feeling that he couldn't have already advanced to Sequence 4 and become a "Devil." It was that the thin tin foil and the chocolate traces on it represented the state four years ago. "Siso" four years ago couldn't possibly be a "Devil," unless he was an "Apostle of Desire" as soon as he transmigrated. If that was true, the targets of his serial murders should have been supernaturals of Sequence 6 or Sequence 5.
Although supernaturals of this level were not many in Matani, and could even be described as rare, "Demonology" didn't mention that serial murder cases could only be concentrated in one place.
"Are you sure?" Lu Mian looked at Ludwig, seeking confirmation.
Ludwig answered very seriously:
"The degenerate aura of a 'Devil' and the degenerate aura of middle and low-level demons have completely different tastes."
After listening to his godson's answer, a picture suddenly appeared in Lu Mian's mind:
"Siso" stood within the "Wall of Spirituality," holding a special ritual, establishing a connection with a certain "Devil." During this process, he always carried a few pieces of chocolate wrapped in thin tin foil in his trouser pocket or clothing pocket. They were slightly infected by the degenerate aura permeating every place of the altar, and silently and invisibly had some changes...
Hmm, when I hold a ritual, I don't take out all the items on my body and put them outside the altar, unless it's specifically mentioned in the ritual requirements, thinking that it's the kind of taboo that needs to be avoided... Lu Mian, as a "Conspirator," quickly had a speculation and asked Ludwig:
"Is there any other information?"
"No." Ludwig gave an answer that disappointed Lu Mian.
Lu Mian handed over the remaining thin tin foil:
"Taste this one too."
Ludwig didn't refuse, just like many children who liked to lick the sugar residue on the candy wrapper, put the thin tin foil stained with a little chocolate residue into his mouth, and chewed it.
After a while, when Lu Jianuo recovered from his dullness, Ludwig looked at Lu Mian and said:
"This one has some more information than the one just now."
"What information?" Lu Mian knew that what Ludwig specifically brought up must have a certain value.
Ludwig answered with the tone of a gourmet:
"This thin tin foil was placed on a table stained with some old bloodstains and a small amount of coffee liquid for a period of time. The old bloodstains came from a male deceased, originally with relatively strong spirituality, and the coffee liquid belonged to Fermo coffee, without sugar, very bitter, very fragrant."
After listening to Ludwig's description, a scene was outlined in Lu Mian's mind again:
A few pieces of chocolate wrapped in thin tin foil were placed casually on a table stained with old blood and sprinkled with some coffee, and had a close contact maintained for a long time. Then, a hand reached out, grabbed them, stuffed them into a clothing pocket, and walked out of the room.
Combined with the detail that all seven thin tin foils were found on the ground at the crime scene, Lu Mian highly suspected that the table was used by "Siso" in some house he once lived in.
"Is there detailed information about that male deceased?" Lu Mian asked Ludwig again.
Ludwig shook his head again:
"No, unless you eat those bloodstains directly."
Those bloodstains should be one of the victims, maybe in the case file, or maybe another... The reason they were left behind was because "Siso" used the table as a dissection table, or as an altar? Lu Mian was disappointed, analyzed a few sentences in his heart, and then focused his attention on Fermo coffee.
He muttered to himself:
"Does this mean 'Siso' has the habit of drinking coffee, and loves Fermo coffee from the Pass Valley..."
Pass Valley was located in the Southern Continent, and the Fermo coffee there was very famous, known alongside Highland coffee from Feysac and Highland coffee from the Southern Continent, belonging to the type that the middle class could enjoy for a long time.
This was very rare in Matani, because East and West Balam also had a large number of high-quality coffee bean origins, and the local area was also one of them. Many coffee beans that were eliminated and could not be exported were sold very cheaply. Whether it was colonists or natives, they preferred to choose this kind.
Lu Jianuo, who finally came back to his senses, carefully inserted a sentence:
"I heard that those who often drink Fermo coffee like that bitterness and aroma, but very, very few don't like to add sugar to it."
That is to say, "Siso's" hobby of drinking coffee was very rare locally... Lu Mian revealed a smile and said to Ludwig:
"Well done. If I catch the target later, I can send him to you."
By then, Lu Mian should also be Sequence 5, and wouldn't give Ludwig supernatural characteristics, so he could slightly relax his control over this little boy.
Send... Lu Jianuo felt a chill in his heart, feeling that his imagination might be too rich.
For others, sending a supernatural of the "Demon" pathway over might be as a slave, or as a material, but here at Ludwig's...
Lu Jianuo instinctively shuddered.
Don't dare to think, don't dare to think!
Ludwig nodded, his eyes shining, full of expectation.
Lu Mian turned to Lu Jianuo:
"Doesn't your Dutan grasp quite well? Turn around in Port Pylos this afternoon and ask clearly which shops are selling Fermo coffee, preferably the kind that has been sold for four or five years or even longer."
"Good." Lu Jianuo suddenly had a feeling that he could finally play a role.
In the evening, he returned to the seven-suite suite on the third underground level and said to Lu Mian:
"There are only three shops selling Fermo coffee, one is on Kania Street in Resurrection Square..."
"You said Kania Street in Resurrection Square?" Lu Mian interrupted Lu Jianuo's report.
"Yes, number 21 on that street, called Matani Import and Export Shop." Lu Jianuo gave a positive answer.
Lu Mian fell silent.
Isn't this not far from the Port Pylos Patrol Force?

Port Pylos, on the third floor of the building where the Patrol Force was located.
Camus received the bounty and shared one-fifth with two teammates.
He then turned into the telegraph room and asked the telegraph operator:
"Is there any telegram for me?"
He had sent a telegram before to ask some friends if they knew the adventurer Louis Berry.
Since they were going to cooperate, they must have a preliminary understanding of the other party's situation!
The telegraph operator with a sweet smile straightened her body and said:
"Yes!
"From Faling."
