Chapter 2033

Just as Xia De guessed, although the Moon Bay City Police Department located in the city center of Moon Bay City was not very far from the Parsifal Club, the journey after the end of the second round still consumed exactly one hour, not a second off.

Therefore, when Xia De got off the carriage, the time had already passed 3:30 in the afternoon of this day. Meanwhile, 【Detective】 also consumed an hour to enter the Dawn Church. It seemed that he still had to perform 【Persuasion】 to let the Church help. However, with that police officer's social credit, it was thought that this was just a small problem that consumed a few action rounds.

And 【Silent One】 who arrived at the police station in advance had disappeared at this time. According to the conversation of the three on the clock tower that Xia De listened to, it could be known that the third round of 【Silent One】 who had entered the interior of the police station in advance had already begun. Next, no matter what judgment was performed, he would take a step ahead, and once the confrontation began, the priority would cause the other party to produce additional bonuses.

"The weather is really terrible."

Xia De, who had decided to end this game in this round, complained, and after giving the carriage driver an extremely expensive fare - the carriage travel time was too long, he turned and prepared to enter the interior of the police department.

Although this was also in the city center of Moon Bay City, it was two blocks away from that Belindell Big Ben. The witch on the clock tower wanted to follow the mature routine just now, let 【Foreign Traveler】 go to 【Persuade】 or 【Charm】 to obtain information, and then use 【Investigation】 to finish. But Xia De at the entrance of the police department looked up and actually saw an acquaintance walking out of the entrance of the police department:

"Mr. Ptolemy Albert."

The one with a small bat logo floating on his head was the coroner working in the lower city.

Although during the "Dice Story Collection," others who should not see the "protagonists" would absolutely not notice Xia De, those who had a relationship with the story promotion like Mrs. Frey could see. At this moment, hearing Xia De's voice, the coroner who was wearing a brown robe and seemed to be pondering something also saw him, so he waved at Xia De.

This made Xia De understand that this gentleman was also related to this story.

"Good, good, originally I wanted to use 【Puppet Control】 to control someone to complete the next action."

The sound of dice jumping appeared in his ears. The witch at the table was performing judgment again, this time whether she could obtain clues from the coroner in front of her.

Xia De paid attention to the witch's side while walking up to talk to Mr. Albert. Compared to the 【Dice Story Collection】 that definitely wouldn't lose, Xia De cared more about whether this newly met friend had encountered trouble:

"Mr. Albert, why are you here? Did you encounter any problems?"

"Yes."

The blood-sucking species wearing a robe helplessly covered his forehead:

"Remember the corpse that was drained of blood that we checked with Armand? The Church took the corpse away yesterday. Because it was the corpse I checked, the police asked me to record a statement today, I knew it would be like this."

He lowered his voice slightly:

"Really unlucky, the person who talked to me just now was clearly a Shushi of the Church. It seems that they are going to start focusing on investigating blood-sucking species. My initial guess was correct, the Church can see that the tooth marks on the neck of the corpse are problematic, but they still suspected us."

After speaking, he asked Xia De:

"Mr. Watson, do you have anything to do here?"

The judgment on the witch's side had already begun. Probably because Xia De and Mr. Ptolemy Albert's basic favorability was not low, so as long as the points and the total value of 【Persuasion】 exceeded 60, he could ask for the information he wanted.

"Wait, why can't charm judgment be used here?"

The witch at the table was puzzled, but the black-robed person did not explain.

"Symbol bonus 5+5, basic 【Persuasion】 points are 138, it seems that even without using supernatural abilities, she is a girl with very good eloquence. Even if she doesn't toss the dice, she can pass, but I want to try other special abilities."

Taking advantage of the fine sand in the hourglass still falling downward, the witch drew another divination card again. Her behavior unilaterally lengthened the duration of this story, but others at the table could not stop her, this belonged to a reasonable means.

It was just that this time she failed to pass divination to interpret Miss Charlotte's additional special abilities. After all, just relying on "sickle" to want to guess 【Death Affinity: A professional related to the dead, becomes friendly to the ability holder】 was still a bit difficult.

"Mr. Albert, I am involved in a troublesome matter."

Below the steps at the entrance of the police department where people came and went, Xia De shook his head helplessly:

"Do you know about Freeman Hawthorne? That is the person who suddenly lost his memory at the Parsifal Club."

"Know, I have friends in the police station, just now when waiting to record the statement, I heard about this matter."

The blood-sucking species said, and at this time the witch's side actually really relied on her own luck to toss 99 points. Therefore, Mr. Albert in front of Xia De was already ready to speak.

"Please wait a moment, Mr. Albert, can you do me a favor? Consider it I owe you a favor."

Xia De said, took out his notebook and quickly wrote a few lines on one page, then tore this page down with the page he prepared on the carriage, folded them into paper balls respectively, and threw them aside very uncivilized:

"This is trash, I don't want it."

The puzzled coroner knowingly picked them up, read them separately, and frowned slightly. The content on one of them was very short, and the other page Xia De just wrote on with ink that hadn't dried yet wrote:

【Please disguise as an ordinary person, continue to tell me about Freeman Hawthorne, and finally suggest that you have a more confidential message in your hand, which is the other paper ball. And I need to pass your test - an intelligence test question, to obtain the most important clue. Of course, the conditions for giving me the final clue also included: it must be on a very high roof to read the content.】

The coroner blinked suspiciously, confirmed the content of the two paper balls again, and then said:

"Okay, although I don't know what it means... forget about owing a favor, this matter is very simple."

He didn't realize at all that the two were standing at the entrance of the police department saying these things, but everyone around seemed unable to see them.

"I heard from my friend at the police station that this matter of Freeman Hawthorne must be related to the supernatural beings in the rumors. His brain suffered a certain amount of damage, and it was identified as a certain ability to attack the spirit... The police officers actually really believed this statement. It is said that it was a supernatural ability used by a substance called 'Mind Crystal'. And the more realistic investigation results show that the attacker's dominant hand is the right hand, and it is highly likely that he has no fixed place to live locally, and is mixed in the vicinity of Herring Street in the lower city."

This result was absolutely not something that could be inferred just by the current clues, so this was the result forcibly investigated due to the characteristics of 【Dice Story Collection】.

Xia De nodded and asked again:

"Then is there any other news?"

The blood-sucking species coroner thought for a while:

"The attacker may be a Delarian. The current clues are only these. If you want to continue investigating, you can enter the police station to try your luck, go to Freeman Hawthorne to ask about the situation, or go to the lower city to ask if there are any strange people appearing."

He was pointing out the things that could be done in this round, as well as the action direction of the next round.

Seeing that Mr. Albert didn't realize at all that what he said had problems, Xia De continued to ask:

"Is there really no other news?"

The blood-sucking species raised his eyebrows and looked at the paper ball in his hand:

"There is news, but this news cannot be told to you for nothing. Do you want to know? You need to pass my test."

Clatter~

"【Foreign Traveler】 learned further situation of the assault case from the kindly coroner encountered by accident, perform judgment... Judgment passed, obtained basic information 'The attacker carried Mind Crystal, dominant hand is right hand'; because the total points of persuasion exceeded 150, obtained additional information '5. The attacker may be mixed in Herring Street in the lower city', because the total points exceeded 200, obtained additional information '6. The attacker is a Delarian'."

The witch at the table showed a smile. The other two wanted to continue tossing to decide the event of the second round, third round, but didn't expect that the hoarse voice continued to say:

"【Foreign Traveler】 and the coroner's basic favorability reached the standard, and there is an opportunity to obtain further clues. If you choose to continue asking, you need to spend the action opportunity of the second round; if you give up continuing to ask, you cannot contact the coroner again."

The witch thought for a while, understanding that this required spending an action opportunity to gamble on whether she could obtain extremely useful information. Facing this decision that required gambling on luck, she tossed a coin this time:

"Spend the action opportunity of the second round, continue asking."

"【Foreign Traveler】 who obtained the information accidentally learned that the coroner had more news. But due to unspeakable reasons, persuasion and charm judgment could not obtain this information. The coroner proposed a test to 【Foreign Traveler】, needing to solve a wisdom riddle to learn that information."

"Is this an intelligence judgment this time?"

Just like the other two "players," Miss Bella Belindell did not feel that there was anything wrong with this narration, feeling that this kind of multi-faceted test of character values was correct.

She picked up the dice, waiting for the hoarse voice to finish telling the special judgment rules this time, but what she waited for was content that was unexpected.

"Toss the dice for judgment, if the sum of the points and the points of 【Intelligence】 exceeds 110, it will pass... When the coroner said the wisdom riddle, 【Foreign Traveler】 laughed. He had passed the difficult twelve-fold test, and he had faced difficulties in the past and present. The wise man never fears difficulties, the wise man regards them as the seasoning of life. 【Foreign Traveler】 passed the judgment."
