As soon as he opened his mouth, the holy light of [Order] enveloped everyone.
“Some of you may know me, or you may have never heard of me, but it doesn’t matter.
I think you all know why the Grand Inquisition is here.
Evil is spreading in Everbloom Town, and criminals are wantonly depriving residents of their right to embrace prosperity under the cover of night.
This filthy and vile act is not only a violation of the beliefs of the Natural Alliance, but also a challenge to the authority of the Grand Inquisition.
[Order] is above, and the judgment has finally come!
No sinner will escape punishment.
I, First-Class Inquisitor, Mortius, pledge to the Everblooming Autonomous Alliance and his followers:
Today, we will find the real culprit and restore peace to everyone!"
Mo Qiusi's words were very encouraging. Many people's faces looked much better, and the law enforcement officers around them were even more expectant.
But then, his tone became icy cold and extremely playful.
"Okay, now that the routine publicity is over, let's throw away these redundant constraints and get straight to the point.
I have found the murderer, and he is indeed among you.
Fear has been your sword, but it will also be your grave song.
Under the watchful eyes of Order and the judgment of the Grand Court, you...
How do you want to escape?"
Before Mo Qiusi finished speaking, his gaze began to move slowly, starting from the far left, scanning everyone in the hall.
Every time he turned a slight angle, all the passengers in the area he was staring at would subconsciously tense their bodies, steal glances left and right, and inquire about each other, for fear that the murderer was right next to them.
This tangible pressure even made many passengers' legs tremble and almost fall down.
Cheng Shi stood in the crowd, feeling the sword-like gaze lingering on him for a moment, and then continuing to the left, secretly breathing a sigh of relief.
He was now afraid that the Inquisitor would use the same method he had used to kill Yun Ni on him, a believer in Chaos.
Fortunately, he really seemed to ignore the players.
The pressure is still shifting and panic is still brewing.
Just when Mo Qiusi's gaze turned halfway and was about to look to the right, something strange happened!
I saw a figure in a green windbreaker suddenly lower his head, push away the passengers around him, crouch down and rush quickly towards the outside of the crowd.
The passenger who was hit was stunned for a moment, and then screamed.
"ah!!!"
"Help! Help me!"
"Run! The murderer is going to kill someone!"
However, the law enforcement officers in front of the door immediately became excited and chased after him.
"It's him! Don't run!"
"Catch him!"
The hall suddenly became chaotic.
At the first moment when this wave of chaos broke out, several players seized the opportunity and made completely different reactions in an instant.
Fang Jue began to chant loudly, displaying his power of [Order] without reservation, transforming into a golden chain of order, chasing after the fleeing figure.
Du Xiguang disappeared in a flash, and as if he had predicted the trajectory, he blocked the escapee's path.
But he did not stop the figure from escaping. Instead, at the right time and with an inconspicuous movement, he "inadvertently" touched the "sinner".
As for Cheng Shi...
He disappeared.
The moment the crowd dispersed, he disguised himself as a frightened traveler, broke through the blockade on the first floor, and quickly ran to the second floor.
But he did this not because he was scared, nor to save his life, but to search for clues!
It is impossible to give up, it is impossible to give up in this lifetime.
This game is so exciting. You will die if you swing once. It doesn’t give you any chance to rest.
If you want to survive, you have to constantly stimulate your potential!
As early as the first day of exploring the hotel, Cheng Shi quietly recorded the appearance of all the guests in the hotel and the rooms they stayed in.
The moment the man in the green windbreaker moved, he immediately identified the man's identity.
Bard!
A bard claiming to be from the northern Kanliwal Empire.
The travelers in the hotel were in a panic because of the murder, and this was also due to the instigation of a few busybodies led by him!
In fact, when Cheng Shi knew about the semi-artifact "When Fear Comes", he also doubted this bard.
As the saying goes, if you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools. If you want to kill people with fear, the best way is to spread fear first!
The profession of bard is the most suitable for doing this job honestly.
They love to tell stories, especially creepy ones.
But at that time he was still shocked by Wei Guan's death, and his mind was not sharp, or he was unable to make a clear judgment.
And now, everything fits together.
There has never been any such thing as seeing a snake in the cup of wine. The reason why you see a snake is because the "bow" is made of a snake!
The killer had already prepared everything, waiting for this semi-artifact to prove itself:
When fear comes!
Cheng Shi walked quickly. He weaved among the fleeing passengers and soon arrived outside the bard's room.
His ideas are different from the other two.
Fang Jue obviously felt that the Grand Inquisition had taken an absolute dominant position after its arrival. Helping the Grand Inquisition to track down the murderer at this time might bring more convenience in the subsequent investigation and operations.
Du Xiguang's idea was more direct. He just needed to let him touch people and read their memories.
What Cheng Shi was thinking was:
When a murderer confirms that he has been identified, his first reaction must be to clear himself of suspicion.
The simplest and most effective way to clear oneself of guilt is to throw away the tools used to commit the crime.
