Chapter 1219 Vision Investigation
Graycastle, Neverwinter City.
Everyone in the police station was in a hurry, and there was an endless stream of people conveying orders and reporting cases. The appearance of the red moon has become the hottest topic these days, and it has also made the entire agency busy.
As the new royal capital of Graycastle and the royal residence of His Majesty Roland, even if there is a slight disturbance in the city, the police department has to find out the cause and record it, let alone a major incident involving fire and explosion at the same time.
Carter Lannis had not slept for almost two days and two nights. After comforting his frightened wife that day, he devoted himself to his work - protecting His Majesty's safety is always the first duty of the Chief Knight. He will never Let someone cause trouble here. According to past experience, if accidents occurred in multiple locations at the same time, it must be a gang crime, so he immediately invited the Neverwinter Detective Team to assist the police department in the investigation. Carter believed that as long as the investigation was carried out, the perpetrators would soon be brought to justice.
However, after a large number of reports were handed in, the superiors formed a joint investigation team composed of the Witches Union, the Kingdom Security Bureau, and the Administration Police Department. The focus was not on the accidents or crimes that occurred in the city, but on Taking the new demon shadow as the main investigation content.
"My lord, the witnesses have been brought here," a knight whispered, "Do you want to start questioning?"
Carter put aside his distracting thoughts, drank the strong tea in the cup, nodded and said, "Let's get started, and invite others in by the way."
"yes."
Since it was not an interrogation of prisoners, in order to take into account the other party's emotions, the interrogation was conducted in a temporarily vacated office. In addition to him, the main members of the joint investigation team include Ms. Agatha and Deputy Director of the Security Bureau Wade.
The first witness brought into the house was a 21-year-old hotel maid who was an informal resident and had no criminal record.
She looked a little nervous, sitting on the chair and rubbing her hands.
Carter glanced at the information in his hand and asked in a deep voice, "Miss Linglong, right? I'm curious. The ticket price for the premiere of "Dust of Annihilation" is as high as fifty gold dragons. Where did you get such a huge sum of money?" Money?"
"Sir, I definitely did not steal or rob this!" the other party quickly defended, "The guest I am taking care of, Mr. Victor, is worth a lot of money. He paid for it on my behalf. There were many people in the administration hall on the day I bought the ticket. Notice, I swear I’m not lying!”
In fact, he had already sent people to check out these preliminary investigations. The first inquiry was just to increase the invisible pressure and make the other party not dare to talk nonsense easily. After all, Miss Nightingale is not here. "Victor, right? We will ask him to verify it later. Now let's talk about what you saw at the end of the shadow."
"Yes..." the maid's voice trembled slightly, "I didn't quite understand what happened at the time, it was as if those hallucinations had become real..."
After a quarter of an hour, she stopped her statement, "Fortunately, the pursuers were repelled by the police in the end, otherwise I can't even imagine the fate of those two people."
Carter frowned. He had also seen The Phantom. Although "Wolf Heart" was thrilling, it was not exaggerated to this extent.
"Are you sure the pursuer's weapons hurt the audience?"
"I'm... not sure, but Mr. Victor's face is indeed bleeding, and the screams of other injured people don't seem to be disguised..."
"Do you still remember when this incident happened?"
"About ten minutes before the end? Or more... Sorry, I was so scared at the time that I almost hid in Mr. Victor's arms."
"Do you have anything to ask?" Carter looked at the other two people.
Agatha pondered for a moment, "If I understand correctly, did the character in the shadow talk to you?" She picked up a photo, "Is it this person?"
The photo shows the actor from the Star Flower Theater Company, who plays the role of the witch guardian in the play.
"That's right, it's him. I remember it very clearly. He even thanked us at that time!"
Carter couldn't help but get goosebumps when he heard this. He naturally knew that once the filming of the Phantom was completed, its content could not be changed, and it was absolutely impossible to talk independently.
Seeing that the two of them stopped talking, he waved his hand to his subordinates and said, "Substitute someone else."
The subsequent witness statements were all similar. To put it simply, everything in the shadow seemed to come alive. Although it was later confirmed to be a false alarm, it actually happened at the time. The interplay of testimonies Enlistment means that this is not the result of a personal hallucination.
Since Carter's attention had been on the fire and explosion in the past few days, he did not pay too much attention to the reports of panic in the theater. Now he vaguely understood why the superiors were more concerned about this matter.
"The next witness is the policeman who was standing in the courtyard and responsible for maintaining order, the captain of the second team."
"Let him in."
The captain was obviously much calmer and quickly explained what happened, "I first heard the cries and calls for help coming from outside. When I was about to go out to find out, I noticed that there were so many people in the sky. A red moon came out. To be honest, I was a little hesitant at the time, not knowing whether to stay at my post or to help those who were asking for help. At this moment, a witch ran out from the back door of the viewing room, and she asked I immediately led my men inside to protect all spectators."
"Then you shot back the pursuers in the shadow?"
"Although it sounds a little strange, that's what happened - they may be just actors, but they already posed a real threat to the audience at the time. Plus I always thought these were just illusions, so I didn't hesitate."
The second to last person to be questioned was none other than the witch who played the magic shadow at that time, Higurashi.
"What can I do? I'm desperate too. Originally, activating the time talisman was the job of whoever had the most magic power. Who knew that such a problem would arise?" She complained non-stop as soon as she entered the door. "It was done well at that time. , and suddenly the sigil squeezed me out of sight. According to the emergency situation, I should stop the magic input immediately, but it didn't stop at all. I wanted to shake the audience awake, but there was no response at all after pushing. It’s like being hit by a sleeping seed. Anyway, I’ve tried my best, and after much deliberation, I can only ask the guards for help.”
Agatha twitched her lips, "Did the talisman... squeeze you out?"
"Probably, I did feel a repulsive force coming from it at that time, as if enough magic power had been poured in, but it began to overflow, and then the vision returned to normal."
"Okay, next one."
When the last person walked into the office, Carter couldn't help but be slightly startled. The other person turned out to be the writer of this drama, Cajun Faith himself.
As soon as he sat down, he clenched his fists excitedly.
"By God, this is definitely the most exciting drama I have ever seen in my career!"
"Were you in the theater at that time?" Carter frowned. Because the other party had a dispute with his wife, he has always been quite resistant to the drama master. "I checked the first batch of viewers' list, and you are not on it."
"He was backstage at the time and had a specially arranged seat - in fact, members of the Star Flower Troupe do not need to buy tickets when they want to watch their own performance of The Phantom. Didn't your wife mention it to you?" Ice Witch said for Ka Jin replied, "In fact, it was his report that made His Majesty pay attention to this matter and send the Witch Union to intervene in the investigation."
"Sorry, this is my personal habit," Ka Jin apologized, stroking his chest. "As long as it is a script I wrote, I always like to watch it with everyone without telling my identity, so as to feel the most direct feeling for each audience. reaction. Ms. May may have known this, so she didn't reveal it to you in advance." When he said this, his tone became excited again, "I must say, this ghost is definitely a miracle in the history of theater—— Because the audience rewrote its ending!”
"What did you say?" Carter asked in surprise.
"You heard it right, Lord Knight, that's not how my script was written!" Cajun Feisi waved his hands and gushed, "In the original story, this was a sad ending. In order to protect his sweetheart, , the guardian attracted the attention of all the pursuers, and finally fell into the cliff, leaving only the witch alive. But I didn't expect that the two of them would be rescued by the audience, and both survived. Is there anything better than this? "
The chief knight was stunned.
"Those lines were not written by me, but they themselves completed this memorable paragraph. Just like what the people in the play said, the audience not only saved them, but also changed their destiny!" Ka Jin couldn't help himself. Di said loudly, "This is exactly the ultimate drama I have been pursuing. If you can find the reason, please tell me! Please!"
