Donn, Fiona, and Illya appeared directly in the woods.

As soon as Tang En appeared, he sensed the amazing arcane energy floating in the air, and his heart couldn't help but sink, this level of arcane energy was not something that could be condensed by first- and second-order spells.

"What magic did you practice?"

Illya was a little weak-hearted, but thinking of the agreement with the big sister, she whispered, "It's just the magic missile that the big brother taught me before......"

Magic Missile ......

The corners of Don's mouth twitched, if the magic missile could condense such a rich arcane energy, then the arcane star ring wouldn't turn into a nuclear bomb?

However, when I think of the signs of Illya's previous study of magic, these are not important, what matters is the identity of the deceased.

Don had already noticed the shattered corpse under the tree that had been bombarded by arcane energy, blood and flesh sprayed all over the ground, and this kind of mosaic affected the appetite, and it was really a shame that Elijah was not stupid on the spot.

Fiona took a breath of cold air: "It's all like this!?" It's pretty much the same as the finger of death you used back then! ”

"With Elijah's magical talent, this is normal."

Tang En's mood is quite stable, after all, he has already tested his psychological quality when he first crossed over.

Fiona, who had never seen Illya practice magic before, didn't dare to underestimate Illya anymore.

Fiona thought that she was the most talented person in magic other than Ellington except for Donn, and she was proud for a while, but she didn't expect Elijah to hide it.

"But that's it. How else do you investigate the identity of the deceased? ”

"Don't worry, there's a way."

With a slight wave of his hand, pieces of flesh and cloth flew under the control of the magic. The approximate size of the deceased before his death was reconstructed.

Don glanced at him: "He is about one meter seventy-five tall, male, and has a well-proportioned body, so it can be inferred that his life was relatively normal for a long time before his death, at least the kind that can eat well - not a resident of Ellington." ”

"The people of Ellington are well fed now."

"But it takes a long time to change the size of the body, and now you can still see the thin foundation of most people in Ellington...... And most importantly—"

Don stepped forward and picked up a piece of cloth and rubbed it. He handed it to Fiona and whispered, "This cloth is not produced in Ellington, or even in a few towns near Ellington. ”

That is to say. The deceased was an outsider? ”

"Outsiders, they should all be registered, and you can find out his identity by investigating who is missing."

"What if it's not registered?"

"That's better," Donn said, spreading his hands. "Not registered. is still running around, proving that he has a ghost in his heart, and if he dies, he will die so much, and we will save trouble. ”

Fiona thought about it and nodded, "I see." ”

"Wait!"

Don suddenly frowned, dug out a few arrows from the dirt, and after a moment's thought, he opened the magic induction net. Soon found something around again.

There were thirty arrows and a dagger. There were also a couple of cracked bottles.

Fiona was taken aback: "Arrows and daggers? ”

The body of the arrow has been blasted to pieces by arcane energy, but the remaining arrows and daggers have also revealed a lot of information.

"Some of the arrows are enchanted with broken demons, and some are burst arrows......"

Tang En touched the dagger, narrowed his eyes and said, "This dagger is an excellent magic weapon, which not only enchants the demon-breaking effect, but also quenches the poison...... Venom left in the cracked bottle, as well as healing potions. ”

"You mean--this man is an assassin!? His goal...... Elijah!? ”

"Not necessarily, maybe it was a coincidence that I ran into Illya practicing spells, and then I was injured by mistake."

Tang En thought thoughtfully: "But this possibility is not ruled out...... You go and investigate the outsiders who have been registered in the past few days, check them one by one, and see who is missing. ”

"Got it!"

"And," Donn added, "if you can find out who it is, by the way, investigate the group of people who came with him, and see who has the same clothes and fabrics as this one...... Be careful not to act rashly. ”

"I see!"

"You can defend yourself with this dagger, it's a good magic weapon."

Fiona didn't say anything polite to Don, and after taking the dagger, she left in a hurry, with a cautious expression.

The presence of such unidentified people in Ellington is not good news.

After Fiona left, Don squatted down, looked into Illya's eyes and said, "Illya, remember what I told you before, you can't control your power now, so when I'm away, don't practice magic, remember?" ”

Illya nodded, her mouth curled and she looked very aggrieved and wanted to cry.

So Don had a headache, looking at such a lovely Eliya, he really couldn't blame her.

However, there is a very important thing to educate children, that is, you must not indulge, otherwise the bear child will cause you big trouble that cannot be solved sooner or later.

Don used his special move - touching his head to kill.

"Illya, today's events should make you understand, right? Magic, if used correctly, can bring us a convenient life, but if it is not used correctly, it is a very cruel weapon, and it will take people's lives, today it is him, tomorrow it is likely to be your favorite sister Elsa, Clara's mother, or even me-"

"Don't! I don't want it! ”

Illya hugged Don hard: "Big brother, I don't want to learn magic!" I don't want to hurt you! ”

When encountering danger, the first thing is not to think of facing the problem, but to choose to escape, isn't this the case for children?

Seeing Illya like this, Don En breathed a sigh of relief.

If Elijah had said that she would be careful with her magic in the future, Don would have been scared.

"Elijah, running away is never the solution."

Tang En patted her on the back and said softly, "Look at the big brother, after mastering the power of magic, it will become my friend, help me do a lot of things, protect the people around me, and not hurt them." ”

"You have unparalleled talent, Eliya, you are a natural magician, evasion will only make it more and more difficult for you to master this power, you need to face it, learn it, and master it."

Don looked into her eyes: "Are you afraid that your power will hurt the people you care about?" Then master it and make it work for you, that's what you should do later. ”

Illya was apprehensive: "I—Can I really do it?" ”

"Yes, of course you can."

"I can, big brother says I can, I will definitely be able to!"

Donn's encouragement gave Elija endless courage, and her eyes sparkled again, and her whole person regained her vitality.

"Well, that's what I like about Elijah."

Donn breathed a sigh of relief.

Illya said happily: "Does the big brother like Illya?" ”

"Of course I do."

"Then Iliya will be a bride to her big brother when she grows up?"

“――”

It's obviously a child's joke, why am I so excited, bastard!

I'm really not Loricon!

Where are you, dear Egwen!?

If you don't show up, I'm going to be a pervert!

Tang En showed an embarrassed smile: "Let's talk about it when you grow up, good boy, go home now, get some sleep, and when you wake up, there will be nothing to do." ”

"Hmmm! Goodbye big brother! ”

Illya was still a child after all, so she didn't think much of it, waved her hand at Donn, and turned around and bounced home.

Passing by the patchwork corpse, Elijah glanced curiously, a hint of disdain flashing in the depths of her deep eyes—not even she had noticed it.

After Elijah left, Don muttered for a moment, and instead of burning the corpse, he put it away.

Not long after Donn returned to his study, Fiona hurried back.

"Found out."

"Amazing efficiency!"

Don whistled, "So what is the name of the deceased?" ”

"Durandon."

"What?"

Don was dumbfounded: "Are you kidding me? ”

"It's just a duplicate name," Fiona glared at Don dissatisfied, "Brian registered, Nokia was there at the time, they were screening the labor force, and they made a joke when they heard the name, and they were quite impressed." ”

"And then?"

"Fourteen men arrived in the same carriage, and the carriage departed from Bayne, and the driver was old Hank, an acquaintance who often traveled back and forth between Ellington and Bayne."

After a pause, Fiona continued: "There were two civilian couples in the carriage, two children, two wanderers from Bein, and six civilians who had boarded the carriage one after the other—according to the two couples, the accents of those six people were obviously not near Bein, and they all had a distinctly nasal voice, more like the accent of Alink. ”

"According to the testimony of the wanderer, the six men were all very silent and did not talk much for several days in the carriage, although they did not seem to know each other, but occasionally made eye contact, and the news should be trusted - the wanderer is sensitive to the eyes of others."

"Then I secretly investigated the six people based on this testimony, and found that one of them was missing, it was this one named Durandon, of course, this is most likely a pseudonym."

"From Alinkes? Heh, things seem to be starting to get interesting. ”

Don couldn't help but laugh.

Fiona rolled her eyes: "Although the other five people are not missing, when I went to look for them, they did not eat in the restaurant, but wandered around the town, but their answers were all impeccable, they were all forced by life to come to Ellington to make a living. ”

"Really?"

"Well, the other thing is that the fabric of these five people's clothes is the same as the fragment you gave me, and it is clear that the six of them are in a group, and the purpose of coming to Ellington is not simple."

"You know what."

Done's eyes were full of playfulness: "Their behavior reminds me of the word 'stepping point'. (To be continued.) )
