Chapter 679 If you can't use the cheat, it's a waste
This idea was so outrageous that even Pete himself could hardly believe it, but if he thought about it carefully, it seemed to make some sense.
What kind of situation could have caused Marquis Madison to be silenced without any chance of fighting back?
Suicide was certainly considered silencing!
Pete was a little confused.
This was just like his suspicion of Rune Monger.
His idea could only be considered a guess at present, and it might not represent the truth.
Because he had no evidence to prove himself.
He might even have thought in the wrong direction from the beginning, and might have guessed a completely wrong result.
"Was it suicide... But Madison's body should have been burned to charcoal, and I'm afraid it's impossible to determine the cause of his death."
Just as Pete was worrying about where to find evidence.
"Ding!"
A crisp sound rang in his ears.
[Marquis Manor Fire - The truth has been found out, and important clues have been obtained: Silent Death]
[Current progress: 33%]
[Number of important clues not yet collected: 2]
The guidance from Nowen, like the sound of nature, fell on the phantom light screen in front of Pete without any warning.
...
Nowen once again intervened in Pete's actions.
About the fire at Madison Marquis Manor.
What surprised Nowen was that he could use his authority to know the whole process of the fire!
The identity of the arsonist, the cause of death of the deceased, and other truths were all clear to Nowen.
Nowen had never intended to try to consume his divine power to obtain this information.
Because if the fire was really set by the cultists themselves, then the information related to it would be contaminated, and what Nowen obtained would become crazy and frantic ravings, or other messy things.
The fact that Nowen could use his authority to understand the process of this matter normally means that there was no direct involvement of the cultists at all! ! !
In other words.
Although Marquis Madison was in a state of severe pollution, he was not a cultist who had accepted the power of the evil god!
This pollution should be the "aftereffect" left by him after being hurt by powerful monsters or evil god followers, that is, cultists in the recent period.
Therefore, when the complexity of the struggle began to exceed the ability of Pete and his party, Norman immediately provided them with corresponding help.
If there is something that cannot be done, it is a waste.
Norman has no intention of tying his own hands and feet.
Since he tasted the sweetness of plundering from the cultists, especially the opportunity to find the core gems of the holy altars of creation.
In order to kill the followers of other evil gods, especially the evil god believers of the Supreme Truth Church, Norman will not show any mercy.
Although this incident does not seem to have any clues related to the core gems, Norman still hit hard because the other party is a cultist.
For him, every wild cultist is a great tonic!
Of course.
In order to conform to the "God setting", Norman did not directly announce the answer to his believers, but guided them to explore on their own.
…
The moment he received the guidance.
Pete’s heart immediately settled down!
“Praise Norman! Praise my Lord!!!”
Whatever he needed came to him.
The most frightening thing about this kind of investigation is to rush around like a headless fly, hammering here and there, and finally collecting a lot of useless information, messing up his thoughts.
Finding evidence is to find the most critical part among the complicated clues.
But before finding out the truth, no one knows whether the evidence he has identified is the “key”.
Ordinary people can’t do it.
Norman can.
Pete can now make an accurate judgment: the dead reported in the news of “Trade and Fortune”, without exception, all died before the fire broke out.
Because the guidance given by Norman has helped him light up the first important clue:
[Silent Death: Before the Madison Marquis’s manor was destroyed by the fire, the arsonist had killed everyone. ]
This is certified intelligence, 100% correct, no mistake!
And according to the subsequent guidance, if you want to find out the truth, you need to find two other important clues!
The manor was difficult for Pete to enter, so he still focused his investigation on the farmers who had seen the fire scene with their own eyes.
Judging from the marks of burns and scalds on these people, they did try their best to put out the fire.
It's just that they didn't succeed in the end.
Pete thought for a moment:
"When you rushed into the manor to put out the fire, didn't you think about saving people first?"
Generally speaking.
Once a fire breaks out, the priority of saving people should be before extinguishing the fire.
The old farmer who had answered Pete's question earlier coughed twice and explained: "Sir, we tried to save people."
"Little Sam was the first to wet his clothes and rushed into the manor building to save people, but..."
Before the old farmer finished speaking, a young man with bandages all over his body interrupted him in a muffled voice: "Sir, I am Little Sam, I know more clearly, let me tell you."
"At that time, there was very thick black smoke in the building, fire everywhere, hot and stuffy, and it was hard to breathe."
"After I rushed in, I could hardly see anything. I could only rely on my memory to wander around. After a while, I didn't find anyone else. I was almost choked by the smoke and finally ran out stumblingly."
"Look at the injuries on my body. They were all burned when I rushed into the fire."
"Praise the glory. Thanks to the priests who came today, they provided me with free treatment. Otherwise, I would probably still be lying in bed with a high fever and couldn't even get up!"
Pet narrowed his eyes slightly.
He didn't say anything else, but he kept looking up and down, carefully looking at the young man called Little Sam.
"What...what's wrong...sir?"
Little Sam was a little nervous when he was stared at by Pete. He couldn't help but shivered and asked carefully.
Pete thought for a moment: "Can you walk now?"
Little Sam: "Uh... barely."
Pet nodded and suddenly said: "I want to ask you something about what happened at the fire scene. Let's go to the side and talk alone, okay?"
Little Sam widened his eyes in surprise and pointed at himself: "Me?"
"Yes, that's right, it's you. Let's talk alone." Pete thought for a moment and added: "This may help you solve the problems of the handover of the employment agreements after the death of Marquis Madison as soon as possible."
Hearing this, the other villagers immediately became eager to move.
Pet mentioned what they were most concerned about.
Little Sam hesitated for a moment and had to agree.
"Okay, sir, if you need it."
