This puppeteer is not normal

Chapter 135
In February 1286 of the Broken Golden Calendar, a group of adventurers from other places arrived in Xigu Town and settled here.There are four people in the group, three men and one woman, one of whom is a magician certified by the Mage Tower.They explored around the town, but one day after they went outside the town, only one man returned and reported to the police. According to him, all three of his companions disappeared.

The man himself has a tendency to be insane, and cannot correctly describe the whole picture of the matter, and has the possibility of committing a crime, so he was detained.

It was then forwarded to the nearest city, Slovnia, for further ruling.

……

In June of 1287 in the Broken Gold Calendar, a traveling mage passed by Xigu Town and conducted some surveys on Xigu Town, but one day he left the town and did not return.A month later, his family members came to the town to investigate and denounce. The town assisted in the investigation, but there was no result. It was impossible to confirm that the disappearance of the mage was directly related to the town, so the matter was left alone.

……

In May 1289 of the Broken Golden Calendar, two gangsters in Xigu Town had a firefight, which caused extremely bad effects. Afterwards, all the gangsters involved were detained. The leader of one of the gangs was hit by a spell and died on the spot. Suffering from hemiplegia, he disappeared during hospital treatment.Suspecting that he was trying to escape the crime, the township searched but found nothing.

……

In July of 1295 in the Broken Golden Calendar, a man covered with wounds came to the town to ask for help, and the town accepted him. According to his confession, he was the guard of a certain nobleman. In the Moranton Valley, he was attacked by some kind of monster.It is known that he was the only one who escaped from the entire team. According to his description, this monster is white in color, has many legs, and is good at using a strange toxin, which is confirmed to be an unknown species.

On the second day, another person was found in the mountains by farmers in Xigu Town. He was poisoned and died after rescue efforts failed. Before his death, he revealed a similar description to the previous man, which confirmed the testimony of the previous man to a certain extent. .

The first man was then transferred to the nearest city, Slovnia.

……

There are many unexpected disappearance cases, but this is actually a very common thing in this world.Because there are often some restless adventurers and wandering mages who end up buried in the mouth of monsters due to some negligible negligence in the wild.

If you really want to go to those mountains and old forests every day to find a person who sleeps in the stomach of some monster, it is really difficult.

In this case, the connection between the out-goers and their relatives and friends is very important, which is one of the powerful proofs of whether the out-goers are still alive.

Of course, some people are more independent.

If someone goes missing for a long time, it always ends up being listed as missing on the relevant file.In essence, it is only a consolation to relatives and friends, because according to incomplete statistics, the missing people who can suddenly find their return on a certain day account for only [-]% of the Golden Continent.

The disappearance is not surprising, but looking at the files in Aaron's hand at this time, some meanings in them cannot be summed up by the word "disappearance".

According to the description in the above dossier, it is not difficult to piece together a fact, that is, in the mountains and forests around Xigu Town, there is obviously some kind of unknown existence lurking, conducting covert hunting.

Aaron flipped through the attachments of some files. The strength of the missing person was not considered weak, but in the end they were still silent, leaving no sign at all. Except for the confessions of some survivors who were frightened into insanity, As if it really evaporated out of thin air in the mountains and forests.

Since 15 years ago, cases of disappearances have gradually occurred frequently. Most of them are outsiders passing by here, and some locals are also there.

What are the characteristics of outsiders?As long as the loss of contact does not leave a trace, no one will know where the restless adventurers died in the end.

The dossiers record those who slipped through the net. Under these dossiers, there may be more people who really disappeared without leaving any news.

While Aaron was watching, Xing Liuli also came to Aaron's side with the tomb in her arms, casting curious eyes.But as the browsing continued, her complexion soon became gloomy.

many.

Her thinking ability is indeed not bad, but she is usually too lazy to use her brain. It is not difficult to connect these at the moment, but for her character, this fact is still a bit heavy.

"all these are……"

"Yeah, it seems that the mountains and forests around the town should be visited." Aaron said.

The reading time passed quickly, he stood up and said to Andri: "I've finished reading it."

Andri looked up from the pile of papers: "How is it? Did you find anything?"

Aaron nodded, turned out the descriptions of "white", "many legs", and "poison" and shook it in front of Andri's eyes: "This thing is what we will find a way to catch next. If we catch it, I have a way to trace the source. Or this thing itself is the source."

Andri's expression also became serious: "Is it the attack I was attacked at the magic workshop before?"

"It's very possible. There are probably signs of something happening, but some strong breakthroughs are still needed. The magic workshop is not a small problem. I plan to take a look at it later." Aaron expressed his affirmation.

"Very reasonable." Andri nodded.

"But it's just investigating the hidden problems in this small town. Luto's matter is still a bit cloudy. After all, there are a lot of things mixed up now, and there are still a few knots to smooth it out. Well, when will we be able to let it go?" We touched Yatogli's body?" Aaron asked, touching the corner of his brow.

After all, the starting point of Andri's investigation here is still Luto, and Aaron thinks it's better not to digress too much here.

"Maybe I need to talk to Randolph directly. I wonder if he can give me some convenience here." Andri shook his head to express his uncertainty.

There's a bit of a mystery to Randolph as well, and he can't be completely sided with his tendency to help Andry.

"When will Randolph come over?" Aaron looked around, and there was no other life in this building.

"Usually he will come over when I get off work in the afternoon, check my daily work results, and make up for some things I didn't do well." Andri shrugged.

"Then let's ask again at that time, do you know Bavi in ​​the tavern?" Aaron said and changed the subject again.

"Bavi from the tavern? Is that the one who works the night shift in the tavern? I helped him a few days ago, and the gangsters asked him to collect his debts, and almost got into a fight. No, to be precise, he was held unilaterally." Fighting is not counting as fighting." Andri immediately got the impression after thinking about it.

"Debt collection by gangsters? I heard that his creditor is the mayor?" Xing Liuli poked his head out and asked.

"It's true that the creditor is the mayor, but some of the methods are a little complicated." Andri obviously didn't understand, scratched his head and lowered his voice, "There used to be two very domineering gangsters in this town, but under the new mayor After taking office, I spent a little time to take care of it, and then picked up a leak when the two gangsters were on fire and both were hurt, and now the gangsters exist in name only, and the essence is actually to help the mayor."

After hearing it, Aron was not surprised. It was similar to what he saw in the previous file. He continued to ask: "Is there anything about Bavi's original parents here? Why did his parents go bankrupt after their death? Why did the debt go to the mayor in the end?"

"I don't know if you ask this, but many industries in the town are essentially the assets of the new mayor, or have his investment. The town will have the current scale and the mayor has contributed a lot. The townspeople have a good impression of the mayor. So Bavi has somewhat offended the mayor, and most people in the town look down on him." Andri shook his head sighingly.

"If you want to know the details, I remember that there are files about his parents' affairs here. Do you feel that there is any doubt about what you asked about him?" Andri stood up and took out a file from a filing cabinet and handed it to A Long said.

"It's a curiosity, but I feel that from various information, some changes in the town are inseparable from the mayor, and the progress of various things is too smooth for the mayor. I want a person who can touch The breakthrough of some traces, Randolph counts as one, and Bavi counts as one." Aaron did not hide anything, expressed some of his thoughts, and at the same time took over the file to check.

"That's true. The mayor usually speaks profound things in simple terms. In recent years, he has rarely appeared in public except for the Winter Festival. Maybe we can only find someone to follow the clues." Andri nodded.

After a while, Aaron read the general situation of the file.

"Then that's it, let's go to Bavi to have a look first, you pay attention to safety." Aaron returned the file.

"The town center is not the outskirts of the town, so there are no security issues. Besides, I'm a certified great magician anyway." Andri grinned.

"The road to the great magician is still far away, oh yes, I forgot to tell you this." Aaron remembered that he didn't seem to have told Andri about the unknown parasite.

Immediately shared the information with him.

Andri's originally calm expression immediately collapsed, just like Xing Liuli who just learned the information.

"Parasite? I hate this type of thing the most. Let me face the monsters hidden in the human body. I would rather go after the Kakos land dragon!" Andri waved his hands.

Carcos Dilong, a sub-dragon creature that exists in legends.

It is hard to say whether it is strong or not, but it has a strange shape. It is said to be long and strip-shaped, with two tentacles and five claws. It can walk thousands of miles a day.

No one has seen the full picture of this creature, but there are many related paintings and some leftover information with insufficient evidence in the mage tower.Now it is often used by mages to tease impossible or very long and endless troublesome things.

"So, protect yourself, don't let anything wrong come within five meters of you, and work hard."

Aaron smiled, said hello, and left the referee with Moon Tomb Star Liuli.
