Chapter 372: ·Detective Reines (Part 1)

【The Golden Princess's room had a magical lock; the lock was of the type that corresponds to an individual's magical wavelength, something used in places like treasure vaults in the Clock Tower.】

【In other words, the door to the Golden Princess's room could only be opened by the Golden Princess.】

【The Golden Princess's corpse was inside the room, and the magical lock was locked, which meant this was a locked-room murder case.】

【"However, from our perspective as magi, it is not difficult to kill a victim in a locked room from the outside. For example, it should be easy for your magical craft—Volumen Hydrargyrum."】

【Aozaki Touko looked at Reines and said: "Suspecting the first person to discover the crime is a principle, and besides, weren't you the last ones to meet the Golden Princess?"】

【"!!!"】

【Reines's heart jumped violently.】

【How did Aozaki Touko know about last night?】

【Aozaki Touko: "Lord Byron."】

【Byron hung his cane on his wrist and clapped his hands lightly.】

【Two figures walked in; they were the twin maids.】

Kayneth: "Hmph, what a good method."

Seeing this, how could they not understand that Reines had fallen into someone's trap?

It really is a case of a tiger falling into the plains and being bullied by dogs; a small Izelma family actually dared to scheme against his El-Melloi people.

【"You are Miss Karina, right?"】

【Aozaki Touko looked at the maid exclusive to the Golden Princess and asked: "What did Tiadra talk about with the young lady of El-Melloi last night?"】

【"I, I left the room when Lady Tiadra was discussing matters, so..."】

【Karina lowered her head, indicating she knew nothing.】

【Aozaki Touko said coldly: "I know you left, but you should be able to predict to some extent the reason Tiadra contacted her, right?"】

【"..."】

【Karina still kept her head down, silent.】

【"Karina!"】

【Byron also urged her.】

【Karina could not defy her master's orders and could only speak intermittently.】

【"Lady Tiadra hoped to flee to El-Melloi."】

【"What!"】 ===== CHAPTER 374 =====
