Without further ado, after selling the mechanical centaur, Du Yuqi and his group finally got 2,000 magic gold coins, which was quite a small supplement. The next step was to search the entire opera house.

Of course, these people were hired by the Ratnes family to do this kind of thing, and the feedback they received was quite bad. Those who were caught alive either knew nothing, while the transformed warriors who knew the inside story kept silent and kept their mouths shut.

Finally, after a long while, the group of people reluctantly discovered some clues and asked Du Yuqi and others to go and take a look.

Following in the footsteps of these people, Du Yuqi and his group walked towards the passage next to the opera house. They could see that the decoration here was also very exquisite. The wall lamps on the wall had been made into the shape of a lion's head, and every hair was lifelike. The stair pattern under their feet was also carved with a scene of a lion taking a rest in a rose garden. This was a very common decorative pattern in the Delos Empire, and it also had an anti-slip function.

Then they entered the VIP box of an opera house, which is a common place for the upper class to socialize. The conspiracies and marriages of the nobles often take place in such places, and they can also enjoy the best effects of opera performances. Although Chateli is bitterly cold in winter, it is a very good summer resort in summer. Therefore, although there are as many as thirty-seven VIP boxes here, and the monthly subscription price of each VIP box is more than five hundred magic gold coins, it is still in short supply during tense times.

The VIP box was very large and had many decorations. The three fireplaces inside were all burning, so the temperature inside could be said to be as warm as spring. However, when everyone came in, their attention was focused on the carpet in the box, because there were two bodies lying there.

To be precise, they were two bodies of women with disheveled clothes. They were half-naked and one could tell at a glance what they had suffered before they died.

At the same time, there is a dining table next to it, which looks very messy and has a lot of leftovers.

After seeing this scene, the first thing Du Yuqi did was to clear the place and drive out all the irrelevant people. Then he began to observe carefully. What he did included but was not limited to finding some leftovers from each plate to taste, and he even lay on the carpet for several minutes to search...

Well, to use Chang Chang's original words, it was like a Polo dog from the virtual motherland, sniffing the ground carefully with its nose.

After a few minutes, Du Yuqi stood up from the ground, stroking the black dimensional ring on his finger, his face looked a little solemn, but his expression was somewhat excited as he said:

"We must have caught a big fish."

"Ah?" No one expected Du Yuqi to say this.

Du Yuqi hesitated for a moment, probably trying to organize his words, and then pointed at the two female corpses and said:

"Perhaps everyone just noticed that they were violated, but one of the women is likely a local of Xiatli, and the other one should be from the motherland thousands of miles away, because the clothing styles of the two seem to be a little different."

There were three girls present. After seeing Du Yuqi pointing this out, they realized that what Du Yuqi said was right. Although the clothes of the two dead women were torn and crumpled, they still showed many problems. Shatley belonged to the Delos Empire, and the women of the Delos Empire liked to decorate their clothes with lace, bows, and pleats, and then match them with intricate jewelry, feathered hats, and so on.

The Xuzu women's clothing places special emphasis on embroidery decorative patterns, such as cloud patterns, phoenix patterns, etc. Of course, the most typical ones are tassels. On the chest of another dead woman on the ground, half of the tassels were stained with some unknown substance and were dangling...

Every time I nodded, I said:

"Yes, these two girls are indeed not from the same place. Even if you ignore the difference in their clothes, you can tell - look at the tattoo on her back, it's a typical phoenix tattoo. Well, I've seen a similar pattern on Xi's martial arts uniform."

"It seems that women in the Delos Empire don't have the habit of getting tattoos in this area. If a tattoo is done here, in the summer, the thin dresses will make the tattoo vaguely visible, increasing its charm."

After hearing what Changmei said, Mingxi's eyes suddenly lit up and said:

"Yes, it is!"

She picked up the girl's left hand and pointed at her index finger:

"Have you seen the calluses in this area? Most girls in Xu Zu can do embroidery. For them, this is not a job, but a social activity. It seems that in Xu Zu's concept, girls with good embroidery skills can be classified as having outstanding talents and will be more popular when looking for a partner... One point is a coincidence, two points are accidental, and when these three points are met, the identity of this girl can almost be confirmed."

"And then?" Xi suddenly said coldly.

Du Yuqi suddenly noticed that Xi's face looked unhappy, and it should have started from Mingxi's words that "girls who are good at embroidery will also be classified as having outstanding talents". He immediately understood that Mingxi must have said something unpleasant before... It seems that Xi is also Xu Zu's girl, and it seems that Xi is unlikely to touch embroidery...

Du Yuqi immediately coughed twice and changed the subject:

"Next, let's take a look at the food on the table. This dish should be braised veal with tiger snails. Take out the meat of the tiger snails, chop it together with the veal and stuff it back into the shell. Finally, pour red wine sauce on it and steam it for five minutes. Uh, although I haven't eaten it, I have eaten something similar in my hometown."

"Well, this bean and wheat rice is cooked with scallops, cheese, and dried shrimps. It can be seen that people like the taste very much, so there is only a little left in such a big plate. Oh, look at this wine bottle, three bottles of Grüner Veltliner sparkling wine that have been drunk. Have you not noticed anything yet?"

Du Yuqi suddenly asked this question, and the others shook their heads, and their faces turned pale. Suddenly, they said:

"If you're hungry, I have plenty of food here. Why would you want to eat the leftovers?"

Du Yuqi covered her face and said painfully:

"Ah, hey!! Am I eating these leftovers secretly? Do I look that greedy? I want to judge how long the enemy will stay by the freshness of the food!! Well, look at these dishes on the table, are they the style of Chateli? Is this the signature dish of the Principality of Belmar?"

"As for the wine, I'm even more disappointed. After all, I've eaten at Chateli these past few days. To be honest, the alcohol in the bottles on the tables here is never less than 50 degrees. There's no way this kind of sparkling wine with a concentration of more than 10 degrees will appear on the locals' tables!"

After Du Yuqi said this, the others finally realized that the Delos Empire had vast agricultural lands, a dry and cold climate, and a large amount of wheat, sorghum and potatoes were grown as staple food. At the same time, because of the empire's century-old martial tradition and the long-term cultural collision with the northern barbarians, this was also a region where strong liquor and meat were highly respected.

Therefore, its eating style is the bold cooking of the Empire advocating "big", "whole piece" and "lots". Whether it is a gathering of civilians or aristocrats, you can almost always see grilled dishes. Civilians may have grilled chickens and grilled steaks, while aristocratic parties may have grilled beef legs. Therefore, for the residents of Chateli, it is very rude not to have grilled dishes in a meal... and this table of exquisitely cooked dishes obviously has a distinct exotic flavor.

Therefore, when all the clues came together, the situation became very clear. In order to please the person who was eating here, the group of people entrenched in the opera house first tried every means to prepare a meal full of exotic delicacies for him in Chatillon in the middle of winter, and then arranged two women, one local and the other from Xu's homeland.

Obviously, whoever wants to prepare such a large table of food and two beauties would have to go through a lot of trouble, so this person's identity must be very important.

At the same time, this person had a good appetite. He ate most of the dishes on the table. The dishes obviously contained a lot of salt (which Du Yuqi tasted), which is very salty for ordinary people. This shows that this person usually has a strong taste and his electrolytes are being lost in large quantities. This situation only occurs in people who do heavy physical exercise every day. In other words, this person should be exercising hard every day.

At the same time, Du Yuqi examined the two women. Although their clothes were torn to pieces, as if they had been raped many times, the actual examination results showed that they had not been substantially violated. There were only large bruises on sensitive parts of their bodies, and it was obvious that they had suffered a lot of torture before they died.

Then, Du Yuqi said:

"Everyone can come and take a look. I will recreate the scene. Do you think the place where the plates are placed is a little low? There are also snail shells, fish bones and other things that he casually threw away."

After hearing what Du Yuqi said, everyone was a little confused. However, when Du Yuqi sat down on the carpet instead of the chair next to him, they suddenly realized that everything made sense:

"This person has a very strange quirk. He seems unwilling to sit on a stool. Instead, he likes to sit on the ground and stay in a corner. From a psychological point of view, this is a manifestation of lack of security and suspicion. It is precisely because of this that the placement of the entire dining table and plates can be explained."

Therefore, after analyzing to this point, Du Yuqi has already labeled the person in the room one by one:

He has a high status, and he has to do a lot of exercise every day. He eats a lot, and his physical defects lead to abnormal behavior! Judging from the temperature of the food, he has been away for less than 30 minutes. He doesn't like to sit on the stool. He has a quirk of sitting in the corner and acts suspiciously.

There is no doubt that he is the next target to be tracked!
