Master Tongtian

Chapter 48 The real murderer appears

Rosen is not short of money at the moment, so he will not create extraneous problems that can be solved with money.

Old Murphy gave the conditions.

He didn't say a word, and the two gold crowns that everyone loved had flown into each other's pockets.

"Mrs. Leverrier of the ready-to-wear store, she gave me the task. Because it was an urgent order, I paid a lot of money."

"Here, this is the silk bag used to carry the money. It smells of her perfume."

Old Murphy spoke very quickly, looking left and right, as if he was ready to run away at any time.

Rosen took the bag and sniffed it. It did have a light fragrance, and the materials used for the styling were also of high quality.

His move was impromptu and the other party could not have prepared the money bag in advance, so his credibility was very high.

"get out!"

Old Murphy got up and walked away so fast that he didn't even need tools for shoe polishing.

Rosen took the money bag and walked slowly towards the Le Verrier clothing store, thinking at the same time why the other party did this.

A wife who owns a ready-made clothing store lives a comfortable life and has no worries about food and drink. Even if it is out of inner jealousy, it is difficult for her to do such an extreme thing.

This is not what Rosen said. It has been verified many times in history and is called the weakness of the petty bourgeoisie.

"Is it her husband's instigation?"

Mr. Le Verrier had a big feud with his mentor and had a motive for committing the crime.

But we have to check to find out exactly how it is.

"Ah, young man, are you ordering clothes again?"

The person who greeted him was Mr. Leverrier. Although he had some issues with Thrandis, his attitude was still warm.

Because some time ago, Rosen spent a large sum of gold crowns here to order several sets of fine clothes at a high price for his mentor Thrandis.

But also because of Thrandis, the smile on his face was a little forced.

Rosen smiled and looked closely at the other person's reaction.

"Yes, as usual, order a silk dress."

"Oh, don't get me wrong, this has nothing to do with Thrandis, it's because I found a new spell instructor, and he happens to be a distinguished lady."

Le Verrier's expression suddenly relaxed: "Oh, that's it. Sasha, Sasha, it's business."

Madame Le Verrier was in charge of the ladies' dress business, so M. Le Verrier immediately called to his wife.

Such a reaction made Rosen's heart move: 'He seems to have no idea about buying a murderer to silence someone. ’

After shouting, Le Verrier smiled again and said: "Please go to the second floor. My wife should be waiting for you upstairs."

"Thank you so much."

Rosen walked up the wooden stairs to the second floor of the clothing store.

It was broad daylight and there were many customers in the store, so he wasn't worried about being attacked.

There are wooden clothes racks on the second floor, and there are sets of sample dresses on the racks. The racks are very tall, dividing the second floor into many relatively independent small spaces.

When Rosen arrived, Mrs. Le Verrier came over with enthusiasm: "Oh, young man, what style of dress do you want to order?"

This woman was probably in her early thirties, with a pretty face, plump figure, and well-dressed clothes. At first glance, she looked like a wealthy woman with a good life.

It's hard to imagine that she would pay to kill someone.

Rosen had already made plans and pointed to a dark purple dress in the corner: "I want to see that one."

"You have such good taste. This is the most popular style this year. Please come with me."

Mrs. Le Verrier, swaying her round buttocks, happily led the way.

After the two of them reached the corner, Rosen looked around and saw that no one else was paying attention, so he waved his hand and interrupted Mrs. Le Verrier's introduction of clothes.

"Madam, actually I have a little thing to trouble you with."

"Oh, tell me, I will try my best to meet your needs."

Mrs. Le Verrier answered naturally. After all, Rosen had always been generous and was a big customer.

Rosen took out the silk money bag and handed it over, while closely observing the other party's reaction.

"Madam, I already know everything about what you did. If you don't want your current happy life to be affected, please cooperate with me."

While he was speaking, he was concentrating, and an iron ball had quietly floated into his pocket, just in case the rich lady tore off the mask that might exist and suddenly exploded and hurt someone.

Fortunately, Mrs. Le Verrier is just an ordinary person. She doesn't know any martial arts or spells at all.

In other words, she is still a pair of white gloves.

The moment she saw the silk money bag, Mrs. Le Verrier's rosy face lost all color, her plump body trembled uncontrollably, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead at a speed visible to the naked eye.

She was frightened, but not out of her mind.

Taking a deep breath, she stared at the money bag and whispered threats.

"Okay, you little apprentice doesn't learn well and you dare to steal my purse! Come, follow me to the Sheriff. I will let the Sheriff chop off your dirty hands!"

Haha~ He bites back, he is really quick-witted, but it is a pity that it is limited.

If you really have the confidence, why should you whisper the threat?

If Rosen was just an ordinary teenager, he would probably be intimidated by Mrs. Le Verrier's appearance, but unfortunately he was not.

Rosen chuckled: "Okay, then let's go see the Sheriff and find out who is the real culprit who killed Alchemist Stan!"

These words immediately exposed Mrs. Le Verrier's pretense.

Her body trembled more and more violently, and she suddenly felt deflated.

"What do you want?!"

His voice was trembling, and his eyes were fixed on the money bag, as if he wanted to snatch it back and swallow it to destroy the evidence.

But she didn't dare to break up, or even make a big fuss, because she couldn't bear the good life now.

"How much do you want? How much does it cost to return this money bag to me?!"

She was overcome by fear and completely lost the ability to think.

Rosen sighed inwardly.

'Sure enough, they look glamorous, have a good life, and appear to be noble and decent, but in fact they are weak and can be bullied, because these people always lack the courage and determination to fight to the death. ’

He took the money bag back without haste.

"I don't want money. I just want to know who asked you to do this. If you tell me, I will destroy this money bag immediately and let this disgraceful thing sink to the bottom of the water forever."

Mrs. Leverrier spoke at once.

"It was a woman. She was wearing a veil that covered her face. I couldn't see her face clearly, but she was very young and sounded like she could not be more than 30 years old. She said that as long as I did a small favor for her, she would give me 10 crowns. .I was confused for a moment and took advantage of this."

Rosen noticed the other person's eyes flickering, his heart moved, and he smiled coldly: "You lied!"

The clothing store earns a lot of money, so how can it take such a huge risk for 10 kronor?

Mrs. Le Verrier's body was shaken, and her face was so pale that it was almost transparent.

"Well, it's not because of the 10 crowns, it's her. She has the evidence of my affair. My husband is a petty person. If he finds out about this, I will be finished."

This is credible.

Rosen chuckled: "Who are you having an affair with? La Spring?"

Madame Leverrier's lips trembled and she was speechless.

Obviously, Rosen guessed correctly again, and now that he has this key information, he is no longer afraid of the other party lying.

"How tall is that woman?"

"Half a head taller than me, with a very good figure. She is the kind of fairy that every man will go crazy when he sees. Oh, God is so partial!"

"When did we meet?"

"About four hours ago. Oh, by the way, the skirt on this woman doesn't seem to fit well. It's a bit tight. From the sleeve opening, I saw a piece of leather wristband, which is the kind of wristband commonly used by ordinary soldiers. The surface circle The kind with a layer of iron.

"By the way, she didn't wear any perfume, and she still smelled faintly of sweat."

Mrs. Le Verrier talked a lot and gave more information than Rosen could have imagined.

"Four hours ago?"

When Rosen recalled for a moment, he discovered that he had just arrived at the Chengnan Market four hours ago and happened to walk into the herbal medicine shop.

Therefore, if such a strangely dressed beauty appeared in the market, it would probably be recorded in the adventure log.

Thinking of this, Rosen immediately immersed himself in the adventure diary, adjusted the time, adjusted the center of the perspective to the entrance of the Le Verrier clothing store, and chose to play quickly.

Less than 2 minutes later, he saw the woman.

Wearing a curtain hat, unable to see his face clearly, he was wearing a tight blue dress, and seemed to be wearing a set of clothes underneath.

She did have a good figure and was very tall. Just as Rosen was walking towards the herbal medicine shop, she also entered the clothing store.

At first glance, she seemed to be just an ordinary customer visiting a clothing store.

Unfortunately, Rosen entered the herbal medicine shop afterwards, so he did not see the image of the other party leaving the clothing store.

But this is enough.

Rosen immediately asked: "Has she touched anything since she came to the store?"

Mrs. Le Verrier frowned, trying to remember, and suddenly her eyes lit up.

"By the way, she seemed to have touched the large porcelain vase with flower arrangements beside the stairs, and then put it up casually."

"very good!"

Rosen walked over to the large porcelain vase and observed it carefully.

Sure enough, fingerprints were found.

Rosen immediately pulled out the thumbprints he had collected before and compared them carefully.

A few minutes later, his heart skipped a beat: "Finally I found you!"

The woman in the blue dress is the same person as the guy who placed the jar last night, and is most likely the real culprit.

But to be honest, when the matter has been investigated to this point, the follow-up clues have actually been cut off.

There are tens of thousands of residents of Silver Moon Castle. It is difficult to find the real murderer just by relying on a thumbprint and a heavily disguised figure.

Moreover, the other party may not always stay in Silver Moon Castle. Once she leaves here, there will be no trace.

"How to do it?"

Rosen thought carefully, and his heart suddenly lit up.

"Why does this woman want to use an ordinary person like Mrs. Le Verrier as a white glove?"

"Wouldn't it be better to just give the order to old Murphy? Why make a roundabout way?"

"It's a waste of time and doesn't have much hidden meaning."

"Unless her identity is sensitive and she is worried that guys like Old Murphy who are doing dirty work will recognize her true identity!"

Things suddenly took on a new breaking point.

As long as he took the portrait of the woman in blue and asked the underground middlemen who took the dirty work, he might be able to find this person.

No, it doesn’t have to be so troublesome!

Finding a middleman is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it also gives the real culprit more time to respond.

He must be quick, attack as quickly as possible, so that the opponent is caught off guard and panics!

How can we do it faster?

Four words, alert the enemy!

"Then, let me see who you are!"
