A few minutes later, Nicole, completely free from the effects of her previous hallucinations, showed the level of ability that an elite investigator should have.

Just a walk around the house.

While she was doing the cult warlock's science popularization for Ronald, she went to the living room on the first floor.

Immediately, the investigator girl squatted down:

"Ronald, I'll tell you."

"It doesn't matter if it's a good guy or a bad guy, because it's inconvenient for ordinary people to see things on the mysterious side, so in addition to masters who are proficient in illusion and the like, most people hide their secrets underground or in attics and other places."

"It's like this......"

As she spoke, Nicole pushed open the table and turned over the red carpet spread in the living room, and a trapdoor-style cellar entrance appeared in front of the two of them.

Nicole kept moving, and then wrote two runes on the entrance to the cellar with one hand.

Whoop -

A small movement appeared beneath her hand, as if a membrane had been torn apart.

This was followed by the smell of blood and the stench of decay.

After the investigator girl destroyed the disguise technique.

Even through a trapdoor, the disgusting smell came out right away.

"Sure enough...... Someone's been killed......"

The tone was a little unpleasant, but Nicole still looked back at Ronald first:

"Ronald, the situation below may be a little ......"

"Disgusting? Or cruelty. ”

"Are you sure you can take it?"

Looking at Nicole's serious expression, Ronald nodded:

"I'll try."

Seeing Ronald's response, Nicole opened the trapdoor without saying a word.

Immediately afterward, a fishy stench that was even more violent than before poured into the living room, and there was a smell like rotten eggs.

lifted the collar to cover their mouth and nose, and the two walked down cautiously.

The size of this cellar is not very large, it is the size of an ordinary cellar used by the average family to store vegetables.

However, the contents are not as harmless to humans and animals as vegetables.

In what can be described as a small space, there is a small cult altar, and on top of the dark black wooden altar, a pale green sculpture of the evil god sits on it.

As for the ground next to the offering table, a scene of physiological discomfort is right in front of you.

The bodies of two women and one man were scattered on the ground.

Compared to the appearance of a person before his death, their current state is like pork sold by a butcher on a cutting board, and no normal human would be comfortable to see the corpses of the same kind being disposed of in such a wanton manner.

Holding back their discomfort, Ronald and Nicole began to check the place.

Soon, new discoveries came to mind.

In fact, in addition to the corpses scattered on the ground, there were neatly stacked human skins in the chest in the corner of the cellar.

Or an arm, or a chest, all the old and new skin has been completely stripped of flesh and blood, and only the parts of the skin remain.

Look at the three dead people on the ground.

They also lost at least two-thirds of their flesh and blood, and the scars on their corpses also proved that these people had definitely suffered a lot of torture before they died.

“......”

"The reason why the guy above didn't run away has been found."

Ronald and Nicole looked at each other, and together they saw the hatred in each other's eyes.

The cult warlock above seems to be a repeat offender who has been committing crimes for many years and has done a good job of concealment.

It stands to reason that such a person should not make such a low-level mistake.

The clue can be seen from the decisive escape in the previous battle.

But for some reason, the woman didn't choose to get out in time this time, but risked staying here to complete this evil ritual.

Look at the extent to which the bodies of the three people on the ground are missing......

In another two or three days, I'm afraid she'll be done.

When the time comes, Ronald and Nicole, or any team of investigators, come and investigate, and there is absolutely only one result.

- People walk away and the building is empty.

It can only be said that Nicole and Ronald came at just the right time to catch this guy who has not escaped in time.

"Alright, Ronald."

"Let's go up first."

At this point in the examination, Nicole abruptly stopped.

Probably considering that Ronald was still a newcomer, she did not continue her work on her own:

"I'll seal this place first, and then go back and notify the professional autopsy to come and deal with it."

————

Escorting the cultist warlock to his destination, Ronald recalled what had happened this morning, and couldn't help but ask Nicole:

"Nicole, how would the murderer be dealt with in a case like this?"

"If only three ordinary people were killed, there would generally be more than 15 years in prison, as well as the related punishment on the mysterious side."

"But a ...... like her"

Shifting her gaze to the prisoner, Nicole couldn't help but raise an eyebrow:

"To die is to die."

"But before that, she still has to be tortured and punished, which is what we are aiming for now."

Ronald nodded in understanding, and began to think about it all in his mind.

In fact, the place he and Nicole are going to now is not the Bureau of Investigation or the prison, but an address in a residential area.

- 13 Linzhong Road.

—The home of the Warden of Brenwich.

Ronald had seen the name in the newspapers before, and he was a household name in Brenwich.

However, it was only through Nicole's introduction that he learned that there was another side to the warden.

This guy is also one of the strongest in the face of official power in Bronwich.

A top-notch spellcaster with an original book in your hand!

Although the position is not subordinate to the Investigation Bureau but to the government department, because the power of the school is very suitable, while managing the ordinary people's prison, the warden is also responsible for the detention and torture of the prisoners on the mysterious side.

The Bureau of Investigation is really short of manpower these days, and what this prisoner is doing is outrageous. So Nicole decided to skip the middle and send the guy straight to the warden.

This is also a special case under special circumstances.

Lin Zhong Road is not too far.

Because it is located in a wealthy area, the roads here are very well built.

The area is mostly populated by the wealthy, and as its name suggests, the entire residential area is surrounded by beautiful greenery, and the streets are often patrolled by guards.

No pickpocket of any force in Brunwich would dare to commit a crime here.

Arriving at the gate of the manor with house number 13, Ronald looked around left and right.

On the surface, it is a Western-style manor house with a large garden.

Although I know that this place is inhabited by big people on the mysterious side, I can't see that there is any place that is different from the other.

While Ronald was looking around, Nicole had already escorted the prisoner to the gate of the manor.

Looking at the energetic guards, the investigator girl spoke:

"Let's send a guest over, please let me know."
