Chapter 191 Inside the building
Among the three people involved in this operation.
Ronald's and Nicole's spells are both of a type that have relatively strong mana fluctuations and are very easy to detect.
In this case, at least until the official battle with the guards in the warden's mansion, neither of them was suitable to take action.
After all, alerting the guards means that the other party will make corresponding preparations for battle.
There is a huge difference between standing on someone else's territory and dealing with prepared and unprepared enemies.
Ronald, no matter which one of them.
Neither is willing to take the risk to alarm the other party.
The ideal situation would be for the three of them to sneak in smoothly, and then launch a surprise attack as a last resort to catch the opponent off guard.
This is the safest way.
Therefore, maintaining this cautious attitude, the focus of the three of them's investigation work was naturally placed in Swift's hands.
After all, it's just like what the detective said.
His technique has extremely high concealment and is most suitable for use in this situation.
Facts have also proven that Swift is indeed trustworthy.
The opportunity he found while lying on the fence to enter was perfectly stuck in the personnel vacuum period in the backyard.
Different from the tight security at the main entrance, since there were already few people in the backyard, Swift specially picked an opportunity to sneak in when no one was around.
The result was that
Ronald didn't even see a ghost when he walked in the backyard!
At this moment, less than ten meters directly in front of the three people, is the main building of the entire mansion, which is also the home of the warden.
To their left, there was a courtyard facility like a reservoir, with obvious water pipe equipment. Further away, a rack for drying clothes stood on the ground, and the clothes, sheets and other laundry hanging on it were fluttering in the wind.
As for the servants who rarely appear in the building, you may see them through the windows.
Swift, a highly professional detective who also uses mysterious side magic, leads the way.
Naturally, he avoided all these sights.
The next thing.
Just enter the building in front of them, and then sneak into the dungeon to find the evidence they want.
——The two priests who entered here.
May live, may die.
In short, the current status of the two priests is what Ronald and the others want to confirm.
If possible, they would try to bring out the two priests.
"."
The three of them kept the silence in the team and moved forward little by little.
Then successfully came to the main body of the building.
Now the leader of the group, Swift walked straight to the outer wall of a room with a window.
He squatted down close to the window, and then waved to the other two people.
"Come on, follow me!"
Ronald and Nicole immediately followed the detective.
After arriving at Swift's side, the investigator girl immediately reminded in a low voice:
"Swift, this is different from the direction I pointed out."
"If we enter from here, it will be far away from the entrance of the dungeon. It’s going to take a long detour at least.”
Upon hearing the investigator girl’s question, Swift nodded indifferently. I saw him taking out a small pick from his jacket pocket and stuffing it under the window, and then explained:
"Nicole, of course I know the location you are talking about."
"But unfortunately, the defense force in this house The distribution is quite good. It is almost impossible to take the nearest route without alerting others."
After hearing Mr. Detective's explanation, Ronald immediately asked:
"So, are you planning to find a suitable route now? Which way are we taking?"
"That's right." Swift nodded and focused on the window in front of him while trying to unlock it. He then replied in a low voice, "It's impossible to get in under normal circumstances, but we can think of something else. There is a way around it. It just so happens that in this situation, I am also professional."
After hearing Swift's explanation, Ronald nodded and said nothing.
Nicole on the side said nothing more.
After responding to the questions of his two companions, Mr. Detective remained in a half-crouched position and continued his work.
Ronald and Nicole stood on the left and right respectively, protecting Swift in the middle.
At the same time, this also provides basic vigilance work for this small team.
It didn't take long.
Swift has proven himself with his excellent skills.
In just over half a minute, he successfully used the small pick on his hand to pry open the window that was locked from the inside.
He gently opened the metal latch of the window, held the edge of the window with both hands, and then slowly and carefully pushed the glass to the side to open it.
"Let's go."
With a small reminder, Swift immediately turned over and jumped in.
Behind him, Ronald and Nicole followed immediately.
Go inside.
The room on the outside of the first floor is not very large, and everything is clearly visible.
First of all, this is a small guest room on the first floor. It is very quiet because no one lives in it, and no one can be seen.
It should be a very ordinary guest room in the warden's home.
At the same time that Ronald and Nicole jumped in, Swift had also walked to the door, leaning sideways and pressing her head against the door.
The purpose of this action is obviously to listen to the action outside the door.
Without saying a word, Nicole followed.
Ronald stayed behind, turned around very naturally, closed the window again, and then prepared to walk towards the door.
"Shh-"
But at this moment.
Swift waved his hand towards the two of them, then raised the index finger of this hand to signal silence.
After this action was performed, Mr. Detective pressed his ear tightly against the door.
"..."
The three of them stopped all movements, and no one made a sound.
Under their deliberate control, even the sound of breathing in the room was difficult to detect.
Just like this, in a room without any sound.
They did hear what Swift prompted and were wary of.
That was from the right direction outside the door, and a rhythmic footsteps were slowly moving to the left.
The sound was actually not that loud. If Mr. Detective hadn't been careful enough, it would have been easily ignored.
Pa pa pa pa -
one step, two steps, three steps.
Finally, the owner of this sound gradually faded away.
But even so, Swift still maintained her previous movements, and her raised index finger showed no intention of putting it down.
Mr. Detective obviously felt that it was not time to go out yet.
Therefore, Ronald and Nicole continued to maintain this silence.
After waiting quietly for four or five more breaths, Swift finally put down her hands and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Huh -"
"Okay, let's continue."
As he said that, he reached out and turned the handle, pushed open the door and was the first to go out.
