Chapter 48 Detective Caitlin



“Although I’ve never seen the Grey Lady’s true appearance, I heard that her entire body has been enhanced and transformed with Hextech technology, even her heart has been replaced with a Hextech core.

"If ordinary hextech crystals can cause this condition, then it makes sense that the more powerful hextech crystal in the Gray Lady's chest would make it more severe."

Through these details, Catelyn became more certain that the one fighting just now was the Grey Lady.

After a brief exchange, the three men changed direction and continued walking deeper into the winery.

Not long after, under the light of the lighting equipment on the shell of Li Lin's power armor, they quickly found a woman lying in a pool of blood, who seemed to have lost her voice at first glance.

Caitlin's face changed slightly, and she hurried over, squatted on one knee, and turned the lying woman over. She saw at a glance her eyes, which were wide open and there was a bloody seam on her neck where the flesh was turned outward and the blood had stopped flowing out.

"A Shuriman. The fatal wound was a sharp cut to her neck, likely a single blow. The wound is smooth, suggesting her killer was very skilled."

Then, Caitlin waved her hand to signal Li Lin to come closer and carefully examine the body with the help of the light.

She first reached out and touched the woman's body. There was still warmth on the surface of her skin, proving that she had not been dead for long.

Then she examined the amplification device that combined hextech and alchemical technology, and noticed the green spots in the woman's dull eyes.

"She not only possesses Hextech technology, but also alchemical enhancements. She's probably not a pure Dicheng person...

"The green spots in her eyes are the same color as the liquid in the alchemical tube, proving that she used alchemical potions to enhance her health before her death. There's also a multi-frequency vibration knife invented by the genius craftsman Zevi.

"Combining the current information, we can first be completely certain that the person she just fought was the Gray Lady, which is why she couldn't defeat her despite using so many methods.

"Secondly, this guy is most likely C, the one who kidnapped my parents. My parents are most likely somewhere in this winery."

Caitlin clicked her teeth lightly, then stood up, swapping roles with C. She then checked the surroundings for signs of battle and fell into thought:

"Before the Grey Lady arrived, C would have definitely stayed in a secluded location where she could overlook the entire brewery. When the Grey Lady came to visit, her first reaction would have been to flee.

"What the Gray Lady wants is stability. Given C's intelligence, he might try to use my mother, a councillor, to blackmail the Gray Lady.

"Since she fled in this direction, and the traces on the ground don't lead to the exit, it means my parents are still alive, and they are very likely over there..."

Caitlin's meticulous analysis left Li Lin and Jace stunned.

Then, she narrowed her eyes slightly and looked towards the side of the corridor, then strode over there, "Let's just leave the body here for now and find my parents first."

After running for a while, Caitlin heard no footsteps behind her. She turned around and saw Li Lin and Jace still standing there in a daze.

"What are you guys still doing standing there? Come here, let's start from this side!"
