Chapter 1128 Bottom of the Ship
"..."
"First of all, can you stop looking at me like that."
Ronald was flustered, but on the surface he still acted confidently:
"Nicole, you never think, Does this child's death have anything to do with me?"
Nicole was more direct:
"Ronald, actually because I know that your perception spell is very useful, I spent some time and made a slightly different function. It's a bit worse, but it combines a [lie detector] with your kind of perception spell..."
So... you feel that I feel guilty!
Seeing that he couldn't hide it, Ronald had no choice but to pull Nicole under the horse-shaped doll:
"Nicole, come here, I will explain it to you in detail."
"Oh."
"..."
Next, Luo Nader explained his exchange with the painter girl on the deck and proved his innocence.
After figuring out Ronald's situation, Nicole returned to the crowd with a rather subtle expression.
At this time, the investigator next to him came over and asked in a low voice:
"Miss Nicole, how are you?"
Nicole rolled her eyes directly, and then replied in a voice that everyone could hear:
"Facts That is - if Ronald really wanted to kill someone, there was no need for him to be secretive. Or let me put it another way, it would be difficult for the spellcasters on our three ships combined to do anything to him on the sea. ."
"..."
Nicole's statement was more effective than any explanation.
More than 80% of the people present are spell casters, so they are naturally familiar with the rules of spell casters.
So after Nicole said this, none of them continued to doubt Ronald's previous reaction.
In other words, no one dared to doubt Ronald.
"Since everyone has no objections, I will continue working."
Seeing that the crowd around her made no other moves, Nicole naturally continued to take over the work she had just interrupted. So, the investigator girl turned to look at the uneasy girl beside her:
"In order to find the murderer who murdered you, can you let me cast a spell on you? I promise that there is no danger and it will not cause any special effects." The painter
girl Naturally, he would not refuse Nicole: "Please cast the spell, I will be fine."
Nicole nodded slightly, then raised his right hand and touched the girl's forehead.
In this brief movement of raising her hand, her thumb and middle finger quickly drew a few runes on the palm of her hand, and the moment her palm touched the opponent, she also completed the spell.
The spell was cast smoothly, and Nicole quickly nodded with satisfaction:
"Well, we are lucky."
"Although the murderer has erased his own traces, he still meets the tracking conditions of my spell."
While Nicole was casting the spell, Luo Nader was also watching from the side.
Compared to everyone who was ignorant of the entire spell, he had already figured out the general logic of Nicole's spell with his clear perception.
After Nicole completed the spell, weak magic fluctuations appeared on her palms and eyes. The spell detected the details left by the murderer, and at the same time, the corresponding results appeared directly in her field of vision.
A very useful spell.
Ronald was impressed by Nicole's talent in magic.
At the same time, Nicole continued to give orders to the surrounding investigators:
"Okay, you continue to maintain order at the scene and don't let people panic. Leave the tracking and arrest of the murderer to me and Ronald." That's enough."
Of course, ordinary investigators would not have any objections to an ace investigator:
"We understand, Miss Nicole."
Then began to track the murderer, and Nicole dragged Ronald out of the cabin. She knew she shouldn't waste any more time, and her steps seemed very hasty.
The two of them were facing forward, one behind the other.
After leaving this particularly huge cabin, he walked around two corridors and finally came to the elevator shaft dedicated to the ship's staff.
"This guy knows how to ride in this elevator. He is very familiar with the structure of the ship..."
Nicole sighed in a low voice, and then pulled Ronald into the elevator honestly.
Normally, she would have definitely used destructive means to go down right now.
But in the vast Sunrise Ocean, the three steamships were their only foothold, so Nicole did not dare to take any rough measures at this time.
The elevator descended neither too fast nor too slowly. During this period, Ronald took the time to ask:
"Nicole, did you study this tracking spell yourself?"
Nicole nodded simply:
"Yes, it still comes from the rune system. "
Honestly, I think the original scriptures of our school are really powerful. As long as you can concentrate on studying them slowly, you can achieve almost any effect you want." Ronald also agreed very much: "This is indeed
true
. "
While chatting about spells, Ronald and Nicole took the elevator all the way to the bottom.
Unlike the cabins on the upper floors, the safety door outside the elevator door on the bottom floor is specially marked with the words "The ship is in operation, non-staff members are not allowed to enter".
Then, Nicole's eyes became weird:
"Is this guy really running away?"
Then the investigator girl pushed open the safety door, and then explained to Ronald behind:
"When this guy passed by here , and even specifically reset the door lock. Are you really escaping in such a leisurely manner?"
Ronald spread his hands and said that he didn't understand.
"Who knows?"
"You dare to kill people with your hands on these three ships, I I feel that anyone with a normal mind would not make such an abnormal move."
After that, the two people left the elevator, and there was a short passage behind them.
After opening the watertight door at the end, they continued forward...
Jingle bell—ding bell—
just at this moment, a bell rang above Ronald and Nicole.
When they looked up and opened it, they discovered that it was actually the alarm bell of the watertight door. As long as the waterproof door is not closed properly, the bell will ring to remind people to close it.
"Steam ships are great."
Nicole sighed as she closed the watertight door:
"The ship I took before also had such a waterproof door, but there was absolutely no such reminder facility."
Ronald nodded slightly in agreement:
"In addition to dangers and benefits, technological progress also brings security improvements. There will definitely be more similar alarm facilities in the future."
Next, the two continued to move forward under the guidance of the spell.
The straight working passage is deep and dark.
Electric lights of this era had not yet spread to the working areas of steamships, so workers here had to rely on miner's lamps or headlamps to move around normally.
Walk here.
The sound of waves and the collision of the hull, as well as the movement of the steel hull itself, gradually distorted in the slender channel. It sounds as if there is something terrible in the darkness, ready to pounce and devour people's lives at any moment...
