Chapter 124: Outside the Grove
This time back to the grove, the order of primary and secondary has changed.
Ronald and Patricia followed, while the three dressed investigators walked ahead.
After another ten minutes or so, they were back on the road by the woods.
The driver of the taxi still hid in his car honestly, and did not dare to say a word.
He knows exactly what to do to survive.
On the other side, with Ronald and the two investigators, the three investigators also quickly came to the woods.
The person who reported the matter in the afternoon was in front of him.
Naturally, they asked Ronald:
"Ronald, where did you see Ramer when you returned to Bronwich in the afternoon?"
"Right here."
After checking with Patricia just now, Ronald naturally pointed out exactly where Ramer appeared, and he didn't forget to add:
"I've checked with Patricia before, and I didn't find any trace."
"Then stand there."
Spencer waved his hand and whispered a whisper to Ronald.
The investigator from Springs simply walked up to the woods and chanted a mantra in a voice that only he could hear.
“......”
At first, the woods were quiet and silent.
Aside from the fact that Ronald and the five of them could hear each other, there was hardly any sound here.
However, as time passed, especially after Spencer had recited the incantation.
In the clearing in front of him, some strange sounds began to appear every few seconds.
Some of them are like the sound of the wind blowing by, and some of them are like the sounds of small animals passing by.
But it is very unified, and these movements are only heard and not seen.
There was a constant sound in front of the emptiness, as if the voices of the past had been transmitted to the present.
Almost two minutes later, after a bird flight.
A voice that lifted everyone's spirits appeared.
- It was a man talking.
"Run away—"
“......”
Although it can be distinguished as a human voice, the content and tone of this voice are very awkward.
Immediately, Spencer began to cast his own spell.
Reversing this weird sound is what makes it intelligible:
"It's really cowardly, I actually ran away......"
“......”
It's been more than a month, but Ronald can still recognize that this is the voice of Ramer!
And the other party's volume was quietly lamenting Ronald's escape in the afternoon.
Exactly in line with this afternoon's scene.
It's just a sound, but it's definitely an afternoon reproduction!
At the same time, Spencer did not interrupt his spells.
After hearing this, he continued to rewind the time of the voice.
Next, the spells took on the sound of landing on both feet and the crow flapping its wings again.
But that's the end of it.
Spencer's ability to perfectly reproduce the sounds that once appeared in this position.
But apart from these things, there is no new harvest after that.
Faced with such a result, Spencer shook his head regretfully, and generously admitted his shortcomings:
"No, that's all there is to the air."
"Other things such as magic reactions, spell marks, etc., are very clean and cannot be tracked down."
That's good enough......
Looking at the investigator who even blamed himself, Ronald couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Let's just say the simplest one.
If Spencer had put his abilities to good use for some espionage work.
For example, when someone had finished discussing things during the day or holding a confidential meeting, when everything was over, he disguised himself as a cleaner and went in to clean up, and then he could listen to the whole meeting.
What does this equal to?
It's the equivalent of putting a tape recorder on the other side of a meeting and recording the whole thing.
When used in the right place, it's definitely an incredible ability!
Ronald is here to think differently and leave it at that.
After Spencer admits that she can't do anything, Nicole takes the initiative to step up again.
"I can actually give this a try."
Walking over to this side with a confident face, the investigator girl looked at Ronald first:
"Ronald, are you sure he turned into a crow?"
Ronald nodded:
"That's right."
"That'll do."
Seeing Ronald nodding, Nicole reached out directly to the nearby tree, and then her eyes were closed, and when her palm pressed on the trunk of the tree, she carefully gestured on it.
Even if you can't see the specific action, Ronald can guess.
Nicole's finger is drawing the same runes she's been using.
The four of them watched Nicole quietly.
Also a few minutes later, the investigator girl's palm left the trunk and her eyes opened again.
To the four people around him, especially Spencer, who admitted that he couldn't do anything.
Nicole held her head high and said arrogantly:
"I guess I've confirmed the situation!"
"That Ramer, that's the crow that Ronald saw in the first place."
"He flew here by transforming into a crow, then landed on the ground and transformed into a human being, and after Ronald gave up fighting him, he turned into a crow again and left."
"That's all there is to it."
"Turned into a crow and flew in, and then turned into a crow and left?"
At this time, the strange investigator who had not spoken all this time stood up.
"Nicole, he shouldn't be from your side, right?"
"Of course not!" Nicole immediately shook her head, "Although there are people in our school who can transform into animals, they have all been recorded, and there is absolutely no one named Ramer among them. ”
“......”
"In that case, this guy should be a pretty good salaman."
After pondering for a few seconds, the investigator continued:
"Judging from the records of the military side and Nicole's information, only the person from the Demon Summoning School is the most suspicious. However, given that the traces on this side have been almost wiped out by him, the chances of us tracking it are basically zero. ”
Hearing this, Spencer, who had been silent, opened his mouth and proposed:
"Then go find the people from the church, they have a special inspection method for dealing with demons."
"I'm going to ask for it, you guys are here to keep watch."
Nicole nodded, and just as she was about to leave, her gaze slid to the nearby rental carriage.
Immediately, the investigator girl smiled:
"Patricia, borrow your rental carriage, okay?"
"Of course, please."
With Patricia's permission, Nicole immediately trotted back to the road on the outskirts.
From afar, Ronald saw Nicole and the coachman exchanging words.
Then the coachman got out of the car himself, and Nicole jumped into the carriage and drove herself to Brunwich.
Immediately, four people were left silent on the woods.
Until Nicole brought the people of the church in, they probably didn't have much to do.
