Chapter 368: Another one
"Letore ......"
Facing Ronald's questioning, the man's expression trembled visibly for a moment.
Swallowing hard, he said in an uneasy tone:
"Letol, the way he died was the strangest."
"Take the bodies of the other two and do a regular mission report on the Chamber of Commerce."
But just as he finished telling the details of the mission and was about to leave the office, Letore suddenly fell down!"
“……”
At this moment, the middle-aged man's voice began to tremble again.
Looking at the other party's appearance, Ronald asked tentatively:
"He just died?"
“……”
"Yes." There was silence for a few seconds before the middle-aged man nodded, and then continued in a very distorted voice, "Letol, letore is dead. ”
"And the cause is actually a heart attack!"
"He's also the type of spell that strengthens his body, and his body is better than that of a professional athlete, how can he have a heart attack?"
"And it's too late to do any rescue measures, and it will be the result of being killed directly!"
“……”
Hearing this, Ronald fell silent.
The three of them died too strangely.
The clerk on the mysterious side died of these three inexplicable causes......
If the first one has an extremely slim probability, then it is completely impossible to explain the subsequent occurrence of one after another.
And the current situation.
It was the three victims who happened to go to Ronald's hometown to investigate before they were killed.
Combined with the clues obtained from the [Nine Rings Secret Society].
Ronald has vaguely constructed a high-probability outline.
The Edler family's mansion is probably a very dangerous place in every sense of the word!
While Ronald was frowning at this, the middle-aged man continued to ask:
"Mr. Ronald, you know ......"
"Do you know how Letor died?"
"It's a very important thing, both for the Chamber of Commerce and for individuals."
“……”
Ronald did not answer the other party immediately.
Instead, as the middle-aged man spoke, he took two steps back and retreated directly to the edge of the room wall.
The reason is simple.
White light was pouring over Ronald's body.
The power of the [Guardian Angel] has been activated, and someone is attacking Ronald!
“……”
Seeing the reaction and movements on Ronald in front of him, the middle-aged man was just stunned for a moment, and then immediately realized that something was wrong.
"Mr. Ronald, this is not my hand!"
"I know it's not you."
Ronald nodded, still not letting his guard down.
He could feel the current mood change of the man in front of him, and the corresponding magic fluctuations did not have any aggressive reaction.
But the attack still came.
Descended on Ronald in a completely imperceptible, and incomprehensible way.
If it weren't for the fact that Ronald snapped his fingers every once in a while to reset the [Guardian Angel]'s defenses, I'm afraid he would have caught the road unconsciously.
"Uh...... Yes! ”
Suddenly, the face of the man in front of Ronald changed.
I saw that he didn't have any warning, and his legs went weak and he knelt on the ground.
“……”
Looking at the scene in front of him, Ronald reacted to what was happening in an instant.
While snapping his fingers to reset the [Guardian Angel]'s defenses, he came to the man without saying a word, and then helped the man whose breath was unusually fast.
"How are you ......?"
As soon as the words were spoken, Ronald closed his mouth.
Because in his arms, the man whose face was no longer the right color was struggling to say:
"I ...... My wife ......"
"Big ...... Man, my wife......"
"Property...... Under the bed...... The second plank, give it to her! ”
“……”
After a few words, the man in Ronald's arms stopped moving.
Ronald sniffed cautiously with a low expression, then felt his pulse again.
He's dead.
Right in front of him, he died so simply and helplessly.
“……”
His eyes fell on the middle-aged man in his arms.
After completely dying, the other party's face still has traces of the previous struggle, as well as the unwillingness to his fate.
Reaching out and closing the man's eyes, Ronald whispered a few words of prayer according to local custom, and then said solemnly:
"Sorry, I don't know who your wife is......"
"But I promise I'll tell her your last words later."
"If ......"
At this point, Ronald paused, then said in a very affirmative tone:
"I'll definitely look into this later."
"When the time comes, for you and the other three deceased who have had an accident because of me, I, Ronald, will definitely give the culprit the punishment he deserves."
“……”
Ronald remained alone in his office.
It wasn't until a little more than a minute later, after the white light on his body dissipated, that Ronald finally reset the [Guardian Angel] technique on his body, and then picked up the man's body and walked out.
Ronald already has a rough inference.
The spell used by the opponent should be moved to the next person in an imperceptible way at the point in time when the previous victim was attacked.
And then repeatedly create this kind of terrible attack that can kill people.
The man who came to Ronald's side to inform the news was also in a daze and ignorant that he was chosen to be targeted by this spell, and then he was attacked by the spell that had been activated just now.
It's just that the passive protection of "The Divine Comedy" is really thorough, and Ronald himself has a habit of resetting his defenses when he has nothing to do.
So after choosing Ronald as a target.
This kind of spell that will shift will accidentally trigger the [Guardian Angel], and then produce a corresponding resistance reaction.
"Alas......"
Unable to help it, Ronald sighed.
There was a precedent for the investigator to return safely, and he thought it would be safe for the Chamber of Commerce to send someone there.
But he was still careless.
The things that inhabit that mansion may not have been touched out of concern for the Investigation Bureau.
But the people of the [Ginkgo Biloba Business Alliance].
But it is not within the scope of the other party's rules of conduct.
Because of Ronald's own will and mistakes, the four of them inexplicably suffered death.
This is by no means something that Ronald is willing to accept calmly.
"Mr. Ronald, you ......"
"This, what's going on!"
Just as Ronald walked downstairs, his assistant Karin happened to be walking upstairs.
When he saw the man in Ronald's arms, the assistant immediately walked over.
"He's the one who just came to inform the message?"
"Dead too?"
Ronald nodded:
"Right in front of me."
"A spell that has no trace at all attacked him......"
Listening to Ronald's description, Karin bit her lip slightly.
The assistant lady quickly regained her composure in only a few seconds, and then said to Ronald:
"If you want to dispose of the corpse, you can put it at the entrance of the basement first."
"I'll go out and arrange the carriage first, and let's go to the train station to see the specific situation."
