96. Kevin's Inference

Outside the town of Leman, next to a large farmland, there is a small hut built by a farmer.

  Four pillars prop up the house, which gives the wooden house a better view. You need to climb more than one meter to enter the wooden house.

  This was originally a wooden house used by farmers to keep watch at night to prevent people from stealing fruits and vegetables during the harvest season. This autumn, it is no longer necessary, and the fruit seedlings have been bitten to death by aphids. Therefore, this wooden house has been abandoned.

  This inconspicuous wooden house is now crowded with people.

  The witch hunter team led by Wayne, a middle-level witch hunter, everyone covered their mouths and noses.

  Because the wooden house was filled with the pungent smell of preservatives and a strong stench of corpses.

  Kevin was by the window, looking at the sky outside.

  He was searching for sparrows passing by.

  The sparrows were also hungry, but some sparrows always behaved differently from other sparrows. These special sparrows did not rush to find food, but circled in the air after flying a certain distance.

  Unfortunately, Kevin did not find any sparrows today.

  "Kevin, what do you want to prove?"

  There were corpses of people and animals on the ground.

  Kevin turned around and said,

  "Captain Wayne, I found a wizard in Leman Town. Look, these are two corpses of the evil god's hive priests."

  "Two charred corpses, what can they prove?"

  Hearing such a question, Kevin looked at another word spirit.

  Wayne brought a familiar word spirit Larry this time. Larry said,

  "Captain, I did a divination according to Kevin's request last night. Although these two corpses were destroyed, they were indeed hive priests when they were alive.

  More importantly, their relics were taken away."

  Wayne took it seriously for the first time: "Relics?"

  After the death of the apostle, within a few days, the apostle's power in the relics will slowly dissipate and become the same as an ordinary corpse.

  However, it is different if there is a wizard.

  The wizard can use his star power to keep the relics alive.

  Other apostles do not have the ability to identify relics. Therefore, as long as it is related to relics, it can be basically determined that it is the work of wizards.

  Kevin was in high spirits:

  "They all have a common feature, that is, the relics on their arms have been taken away.

  Although we cannot identify relics like wizards, the gaps on their arms cannot be false, and our divination cannot be false. It must be the wizard who killed them.

  The Leman Town Police Department was the first to discover that the insect plague was caused by the evil god's insect nest, and they are also the police department that killed the most evil god's insect nest priests."

  "Is there any problem with this? Isn't that what the town police department should do?"

  Kevin knew that Captain Wayne had a lot of opinions about his absence from the Trial Bureau for half a year. In fact, if Ichabod hadn't been interceding for him and saying that he was investigating wizards, he would have been caught by the Trial Bureau long ago.

  Kevin continued:

  "The problem is not that the police department eliminated the insect nest priests, the problem is that most of the insect nest priests in Leman Town were eliminated by a patrolman named Rudolph.

  I checked the files of the Leman Town Police Department. Not only the insect nest priests, but also this patrolman named Rudolph, also captured more than 5 level 1 werewolves for the police department."     Wayne asked, "Is Rudolph the new alchemist in the police station? Is he Sheriff Claude's alchemy assistant?"

  Kevin smiled and shook his head:

  "That's the problem. Rudolph is an ordinary person. Or, in name, Rudolph is an ordinary person."

  Kevin saw that Wayne's expression became serious, so he continued:

  "Alchemists arm ordinary people and enable them to protect themselves in front of the apostles, which makes us admire them.

  I have checked the police station's files. Rudolph has made so many achievements. They were all accomplished by him and his team, a policewoman named Yvonne.

  I don't believe that an ordinary person, and a negligible policewoman, can accomplish such a great result!

  5 level 1 werewolves and 2 level 1 hive priests, this is just evidence.

  It is impossible, absolutely impossible for the two of them to wander around in the wilderness unscrupulously. How can there be such a powerful ordinary person."

  "Wait!" Wayne suddenly said:

  "That's not right. Since you have the evidence and since you suspect Rudolph, you can just divine the result and give a report to the Trial Office, and we can just come and arrest people.

  You are collecting corpses here and checking files at the police station. This is not like the style of a Word Spirit.

  I was wondering why you spent several months here and why your actions are so un-Word Spirit?"

  Kevin looked at another Word Spirit, Larry, who explained:

  "Captain Wayne, this is where the trouble comes in, and this is where I can't be sure.

  We can indeed get some information from the corpses, but divination can't tell me who killed these Hive priests.

  As for the subsequent information, location, height, and appearance, there is no way of knowing."

  Wayne frowned, his pupils trembling.

  Larry continued,

  "Captain, there is a high-level zombie that obscured the divination.

  That high-level zombie is higher than Kevin and I, at least a level 3 zombie. Only zombies with higher levels than us can cut the divination line on the corpse.

  Kevin and I can't get accurate results through divination, and this is where the problem is."

  Kevin looked at Ichabod with gratitude, and Ichabod breathed a sigh of relief. His insistence was not entirely due to personal feelings, which made sense.

  To be honest, Wayne was a little scared at this moment.

  The patrolman named Rudolph was more complicated than he imagined.

  Sheriff Claude, a level 3 alchemist, was eligible to run for the Alchemy Council of Fabro City, and his attitude was clear that he wanted to protect the patrolman Rudolph.

  If Rudolph is proved to be a wizard, wouldn't it mean that Sheriff Claude was shielding a wizard, which almost cut off Sheriff Claude's path to promotion. Sheriff Claude would not allow such a thing to happen, both publicly and privately.

  At the same time, there is now a Level 3 zombie involved, and it may be even higher. This matter is beyond Wayne's ability.

  Kevin continued, "Captain Wayne, I even think that Sheriff Claude has a problem. He is shielding Rudolph, the man who may be a wizard."

  Wayne just said,

  "Since you can't get the divination results, this time we will focus on collecting evidence.

  Don't forget our main task, we are here to solve the evil god's riots and thus solve the shortage of grain.

  As for Sheriff Claude shielding wizards... There is no direct evidence now. If there is solid evidence, I will try to communicate with the director and see what the chairman of the Alchemy Council thinks."

  Kevin nodded proudly, and finally convinced the Trial Bureau that he was not wrong and now he may have made a contribution.
