The Beginning of Panlong: In the Name of the Father

Chapter 86 Investigation?

The Luo Empire, or the majority of nobles on the Magnolia Continent, ruled.

The things of the poor really don't matter.

Even compared to Hogg's life on Earth, due to the tyranny of individual force in the Panlong Universe, ordinary people and low-level warriors could not 'rebel' no matter how many they had, and they could only be slaughtered when faced with the truly strong ones.

The strong ones kill ordinary soldiers and fourth and fifth level warriors.Even if there is an army of tens of thousands of people.But as long as a ninth-level warrior comes, he can easily kill the leader and collapse the army.

It would be more convenient if you were a magician.

A ninth-level great mage, one spell can cover an army of 10 people, and it is easy to destroy an army by one person.

No one really cares about the real poor.

However, if it is a class of wealthy citizens, it will still put a little pressure on the powerful.

The wealthy class, that is, some wealthy residents, such as mill owners, shop owners, or fifth- and sixth-level warriors, mid- to high-level magicians, and the like.

People in this class are not really strong or powerful, but at least they are the backbone of society.

This class has close contact with ordinary civilians at the bottom, and the captains of the escorts of some small noble families are at this level.

It would be fine if only one or two children from such families disappeared. The power of a single family is limited and it would have no impact.

If there are many children from such families missing, then at least the city lord cannot ignore their calls.Otherwise a city would be completely paralyzed.

"My lord is right, so the city lord also sent people to investigate. It is said that an eighth-level warrior and a seventh-level magician were used, but nothing was found."

"In the past month, children have disappeared more frequently. Three children are missing almost every night. There are even children from noble families missing. The son of Lord Viscount Brenda who lives here is also missing."

"Missing in your Wardley Hotel?!" Lina couldn't help but ask.

"No, it's not~" the waiter said that he had said the wrong thing, "Viscount Brenda and her family were living in our hotel at that time, but their child disappeared while walking on the street. Our Wardley Hotel belongs to Dawson The subordinates of the Chamber of Commerce do a very good job of protecting you, and they will never let anyone harm the master and his wife."

He hurriedly explained, and Hogg waved his hand to express that there was no need to say more, "What I want to know now is, do you have any more in-depth information? What happened to the disappearance of these children? Did someone arrest them?" How about taking the kids away?”

"Um... Sir, I don't know the details of this kind of thing. Although there are rumors that some people wearing black clothes took the children away, but these are just rumors. Maybe some big shots know the details. .”

"Okay, you can leave." Hogg took out some gold coins and handed them to the waiter, who happily exited the room.

Hogg's face also became a little ugly.

If only one or two, or even five or six children were missing, he would usually not care about it.

Again, if he really wanted to maintain world peace, he might as well mediate local wars between empires.

Just like on earth, if you want to achieve world peace, wearing red underwear backwards and putting out fires every day is too inefficient. Killing the American emperor is the right way.

However, according to the waiter, the missing children in Duke City were not just one or two children.

After a little mental arithmetic, he knew that there were more than a hundred missing children in Duke City, taking into account the situation in the slums. . .The real number may be well over a hundred.

As a border county between the two countries, the population of Duke City is no less than that of some provincial cities, with a population of nearly one million and tens of thousands of children.

In the past few months, nearly one percent of the children have disappeared?

This number is a bit scary.

Looking back, Hogg looked at his wife again, Lina's pleading expression.

She has a kind nature. When she heard that a large number of children were missing, she felt compassion in her heart.

If Hogg was still the sixth-level warrior, she would definitely not let her husband get involved in such a thing.

No matter how kind she is, she is still a woman who plays the role of a family member. The lives of her husband and children are obviously more important than the lives of others.

But she now knows that Hogg is a presence in the Sanctuary.

As his wife, Lina was also proud. She also believed that Hogg, who had the strength of the Holy Realm, would be able to solve this problem very easily.Seeing Lina's gaze, Hogg nodded slightly.

"Okay, Linna, don't leave the hotel these days. I'll come and find out what's going on."

No matter what, we need to figure out what's going on first, and if possible, save those children.

It's okay if he doesn't take action. Since he takes action, he must do things beautifully.It can be regarded as an explanation for myself.

------

night, quiet.

Although he promised Linna to take care of the disappearance of the child, Hogg did not leave immediately.

He was thinking about how to investigate this matter. .

The child is missing, mysteriously, and the only clue is that the man in black is suspected of having kidnapped the child - but this is nonsense.

Not to mention the authenticity of this clue.

When children go missing, it's obvious that someone is causing trouble. It can't be said that these children escaped at night.

Even if it was, it would be a Hameln Piper kind of thing.

In this world where magic and fighting spirit exist, it is true that some magic can produce similar effects.

For example, dark magic has methods like hypnosis and illusion.

No matter what the situation is, there is a "person" behind it.

Man in black?
If you go out at night and arrest a child, why don't you wear white clothes if you don't wear black clothes?
These clues seem to lead to nothing.

Then there is only truth. . .

"I'm stupid!" Hogg patted his head.

"Firstly, I am not Sherlock Holmes, secondly, I am not Mr. Dee Renjie, and thirdly, I am not a primary school student in a suit. How can I reason with these clues?!"

Hogg was speechless.

He puts here the naturalistic reasoning and the socialist reasoning?
These things really have nothing to do with him, and the script he took was not Detective Hogg's.

He is a strong man in the holy realm, and he is at the pinnacle of the holy realm.

He doesn't need to rely on reasoning to solve the case, he only needs to find tangible evidence and clues.

Rather than fixing so many useless ones. . .Become the Eye of Heaven!
In the courtyard, Hogg immediately transformed into the form of a dragon-blooded warrior.

Scales cover the body, and ferocious dragon horns and tail protrude.

The fighting spirit, physical body, and spiritual essence in his body instantly reached the level of the holy realm.

With both feet on the ground, Hogg closed his eyes and instantly sensed the breath of life, large and small, in the city.

This is a special method of exploring the rules of life mastered by Hogg.

Even compared to the third time he entered the Warcraft Mountains more than a year ago, he is now more accomplished in this detection method. Although his "seeing" is still not very clear, the range of detection far exceeds the range of soul power. .

Using the mystery of the rules of life to explore, Hogg named it the "Eye of Life".

At this moment, the eyes of life are opened.

The entire Duke City is within the scope of Hogg's exploration, and his "vision" spreads outward layer by layer from the inside out. .
