Chapter 124 The plot that does not follow the routine
There is a huge personality gap between the believers of the sea goddess and the believers of the god of light.
In the eyes of believers of the God of Light, believers of the Ocean Goddess are a group of shameless bitches!In the eyes of the believers of the Goddess of the Sea, the believers of the God of Light are just a bunch of hypocritical cowards!
Because of their personalities, it is difficult for followers of Peiluo and followers of Amberli to get along with each other, but the relationship between the two gods is not hostile after all, so as long as there are enough interests, the two sides can cooperate theoretically.
But it turns out that Green was thinking too much.
"In the name of Pero, I did not kill the young master." The housekeeper stared at the female captain closely, and a glimmer of holy light appeared in her hand, proving that she was not lying.
There is a level 5 trainee priest in the housekeeper profession.When the clergy of a good god speak in the name of God, it must be from the heart, otherwise, the level of priesthood will be lowered, and the grace of God will be completely lost.Therefore, most of the time, the clergy of the good god are always more likely to be trusted than others.
Seeing the holy light in the housekeeper's hand, Green's eyes flickered: "So...can I untie the rope on myself?"
"Of course." The housekeeper fixed her eyes on the captain.
"Hey, hello, hello, you don't really think I'm a murderer, do you?" The female captain smiled, "I have no reason to do such a thing, do I?"
Green quietly took two steps back.
Suddenly, "Bang!" a gunshot sounded, startling the two women.
The two women looked at Green at the same time.
"What are you looking at me for?" Green threw the rope tied to him on the ground, "I just untied the rope."
"What kind of spell is this?" The female captain looked at the musket in Green's hand, "It looks a bit like a dwarf's musket?"
"A variant of the magic missile." Holding a gun in his hand, Green felt a little more at ease.
The female captain looked at the musket in Green's hand: "Do you also suspect that I am the murderer?"
Green: "In my opinion, anyone on board could have been the murderer."
Housekeeper: "I have questioned everyone on the ship using detection lies. The murderer is among the two of you!"
Green: "Detecting lies is unreliable. If it's a planned murder, anyone with a magic scroll of hypnotism can fool the detecting lie."
The housekeeper frowned: "What do you mean?"
Green: "Detecting lies is ineffective. Everyone on board is a suspect."
The face of the housekeeper became gloomy: "Do you know who the murderer is?"
"I don't know. But we can analyze it." Green rubbed his arms and looked around, "First of all, can you determine the time of your young master's death?"
Housekeeper: "The young master lives alone, so I don't know when he was killed."
"Your room is right next to your young master? Didn't you hear anything when your young master was killed?"
"No." The housekeeper thought for a while, "I got up at six in the morning and then went to the kitchen. When I came back, I found that the young master was dead."
"What time was the body found?"
"07:30. The young master gets up at this time every morning."
"In other words, the time of death should be between 07 am and 30:[-]?"
The housekeeper nodded: "It should be so."
"The time of death has been determined. Then go and investigate where everyone on board was and what they were doing during that time. If the murderer really used hypnotism, then there must be a flaw in the memory of the time of the murder."
The housekeeper lowered her head and thought for a while: "I understand. I'll ask everyone on the boat again later."
Green: "Well, then I'll take my leave first. I haven't had breakfast yet."
"Please forgive our previous rude behavior." The housekeeper said to Green with an apologetic expression.
"It's okay, who made me the number one suspect before?"
After Green left, the housekeeper and the captain fell silent.
"The wound on the young master must have been stabbed from behind, right? Why did you tell him it was from the front?" The housekeeper broke the silence first.
"Didn't you also deny it?"
"Hmm... Is it possible that he used hypnosis on himself and forgot the memory of the murder?"
"Hey hey...you investigate slowly, I won't accompany you." The female captain smiled heartlessly.
"Where were you between 07am and 30:[-]?"
"...You don't really think that the murderer is me?"
"Just as a reference."
"If you really used the hypnotism scroll, you may also be the murderer."
"I have no problem with my memory from 07am to 30:[-]. Many sailors can vouch for that."
"What if the time of death is not between six o'clock and 07:30?" The female captain snorted coldly, "Judging from the degree of blood coagulation, the time of death should be between five o'clock and seven o'clock. If the time of death is Before five o'clock, you are also suspected. You know, if Ryan dies, you will become the only heir of the Togomi family. "
The housekeeper: "...I never had this idea. I am a follower of Peiluo, not a businessman. Ryan is more suitable for inheriting the family than me."
"Humph. But you can't prove your innocence, can you?"
"I know I'm not a murderer."
"I also know that I am not the murderer. But is it useful?" The female captain chuckled, "You can investigate slowly, and I won't accompany you."
In the restaurant on the first deck, many sailors were talking about the murder.
As the patriarch of the Togmi family, Ryan's death was a heavy blow to all employees. Many people were discussing what to do in the future, and Green also took the opportunity to ask the sailors about the situation of the Togmi family.
The Togmi Family is a medium-sized Chamber of Commerce in Cape Dancaro, with a few shops and a small fleet.However, the previous generation of the family encountered a giant sea monster during ocean trade and lost their lives. After that, the Togmi family fell into a debt crisis due to losses and compensation issues, and most of the shops were used to pay off debts.
And Ryan de Togmi had to give up his studies, returned to the family from the Tower of Sage, and began to run the family. Even this large merchant ship was rented after mortgaging a shop. The red-haired man The female captain Ikasi is the real owner of the ship-the Togmi family has a cooperative relationship with her rather than a slave relationship.
"That is to say... if the murderer is the female captain, the sailors on the entire ship will become enemies? She can completely black out the cargo of this ship?" Green's face turned green, "This ...That Ryan trusts her so much?"
