"Mr. Ronald?"

"Do you know what's going on here?"

Before Phyllis could take care of the little girl in her arms, the dignified-looking investigator on the side stepped forward first. Because he knew the strength and attitude of the original canon holder in front of him in the bureau, he asked very directly:

"The investigator in charge of this side was also killed by the explosion just now, and now we don't have a good idea to deal with this incident except to rescue people as much as possible."

“……”

Hearing the investigator's question, Ronald looked at Heloise first. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with his companion, he put down his hand and replied:

"I noticed that the time of the movement here was when the explosion began."

"At least since the time I started observing, there haven't been any notable mana fluctuations here. Moreover, the center of the explosion has now been completely destroyed, and it is basically impossible to find any clues. ”

The investigator's face was very ugly.

The next answer to Ronald is also very much in line with his caster's perception.

"A spell that even the holder of the original canon can hide?"

"There are obviously no suspicious people in the industrial area tonight, what the hell is ......?"

"Sir, you may have misunderstood me." The investigator wanted to continue his analysis, but Ronald immediately interrupted him, "I mean that this explosion was not the effect of someone's spell, but an industrial disaster caused by simple human error. ”

“……”

Hearing Ronald's words, the investigator immediately understood the meaning of the words, but could not fully understand them. Looking at Ronald with a serious expression in front of him, his expression was stunned.

"Huh?"

"This ...... You're kidding me, right? ”

"How could an ordinary person make an explosion of this magnitude, only spells ......"

Looking at the investigator in front of him who didn't believe him at all, Ronald directly stretched out his hand and pointed around this time: "You take a closer look at what the situation is now." ”

"The explosion came so suddenly, and you didn't get an accurate look."

"But what about these burning flames now? The scattered sparks flew straight out of the explosion, and you can't tell if they have magic fluctuations, right? ”

"The facts are right in front of you, believe it."

“……”

The investigator who spoke to Ronald was silent.

He turned his head to look at the place where it was still burning in the center of the disaster, then at the scene of the fire that was not far away, and finally opened his mouth blankly, unable to say anything.

The other person who was acting with him stepped forward at this moment, and nodded respectfully to Ronald. It was only when he showed his respect for Ronald that he pointed to the three ordinary people on the ground and said:

"Mr. Ronald, I don't mean much, so I would like to thank you personally in advance for your immediate help. A powerful spell caster like you shouldn't be easy to rescue, right? ”

This investigator acted more directly and efficiently than the other.

He didn't seem to care about the origin of the explosion, whether it was the mystery or the factory accident, in short, getting as much information as possible from the owner of the original text in front of him was his most important job as an investigator.

Ronald will certainly not hide anything in the face of such inquiries.

"This is the survivor I found in the middle of the explosion, in a sealed underground vault. Seeing that they still have time to hide in and save their lives, they should know something about this explosion. ”

The investigator's eyes lit up: "Is that so!" ”

He immediately walked up to the unconscious three people and examined them with the methods of an investigator, and the results obtained were the same as what Ronald said.

"There's no sign of magic at all, so it's not a spellcaster......"

Whispering with emotion, the investigator activated the polygraph spell by reciting "Volume 11, Page 260, Item 6", and then turned to look at Ronald who was standing behind.

"Mr. Ronald, can you let go of the spell on this gentleman first?"

"The other two just fall asleep first, but he's alone."

The investigator refers to the adult worker among the three.

Guys dressed as businessmen may be messing around, and children may have problems understanding things, and under the premise that the most accurate information is needed, it is still the workers who go deep into the front line to interrogate.

Faced with the investigator's completely reasonable request, Ronald naturally agreed to release control.

The mind that has been limited by the power of 'rage' returns to the body.

The man lying on the ground reacted immediately.

The tightly closed eyelids trembled slightly and began to open, and the arms that were attached to the ground also bent.

"Hmm......"

"I ...... You ......"

Smack-

Seeing that the worker was about to wake up completely, the investigator reached out and tapped lightly on the door of the other's head.

The results are immediate.

The worker's eyes immediately became dazed, but they weren't really unconscious.

This is clearly a spell used to interrogate people.

Immediately afterward, the investigator spoke, as Ronald had expected:

"Your name?"

"Addams."

"What about the last name?"

"Nope."

"Identity?"

"Maude Chemical Station, the worker squad leader of the second group."

“……”

Some of the most basic questions and answers down to personal privacy.

The investigator obtained specific information about the other party from the workers.

This is a poor man named Adams, who was selected from the slums to be taken to the factory as an apprentice, and then lived the same life as most of the workers, and had no contact with mysterious and suspicious people.

Asked all the time, the investigator can also monitor the status of the other party in real time through the [polygraph]. The man was completely under the control of the spell and did not change the slightest change in answering any questions.

It was with this confirmation that the investigator continued:

"Then Adams ......"

"What do you know about this explosion?"

The worker in the spell control answered directly:

"Tonight, when I was patrolling at night, I noticed that there was a problem with the pressure pipe, and when I was informing the boss, we heard a lot of noise in the factory outside, and then the boss took us into hiding."

“……”

Hearing this series of answers, the investigator frowned.

There is a high degree of consistency between the response given by the workers and Ronald's statement.

Could it be that this explosion was really a disaster caused by a factory operation error? Isn't it the targeted action of some dangerous organization?

Just when the investigator was thinking about it.

Ronald stepped forward, looked at the worker in front of him and asked:

"Do you check the pressure piping and see if you see the details of the problem?"

"Man-made sabotage or simply aging equipment?"

The worker replied honestly again:

"Man-made sabotage."
