"Um……"
Yuan Hua glanced at the bloodstains on the ground, walked around them, and headed straight for the wall...
"There are knife marks on the wall, it should be..."
Yuan Hua stretched out his finger and gently traced the knife mark...
"Ok?"
"Did you find anything?"
Kabang hurriedly came to Yuan Hua's side.
"There is a high probability that it is a melee mage."
Yuan Hua hesitated for a moment.
"How to say?"
Kabang closed his eyes, staring intently at the marks on the wall...
"Although both warriors and mages can use elemental power, there are differences between the two."
Yuan Hua put his hands in his pockets.
"First of all, warriors attach their elemental power to their weapons before attacking, so the marks left by warriors must be very deep and the elemental residue must last for a very long time."
"Melee mages are different."
Yuan Hua opened his right hand, and the scarlet chain slid out.
"Melee mages' weapons only play a supporting role in combat, and generally, weapons do not leave elemental traces."
"For example."
Yuan Hua casually flicked his wrist, and the Crimson Chain rolled up a chair next to him, pulling it over and sitting down on it.
"When I'm fighting, I usually use chains to restrain my opponent, and then I release magic through the chains."
“Melee mages also have another way of fighting, which is to use buffing magic, but the traces created by this kind of magic are too obvious.”
Yuan Hua looked around the room.
"There's a lot of residual fire elemental energy inside. If it's from a spell..."
Yuan Hua suddenly stopped speaking, and the crimson chain in his hand instantly burst into flames!
The flames went out in less than two seconds.
Yuan Hua gently pulled open the chain, and Cabon immediately understood Yuan Hua's meaning!
Chapter 302 Got the goods, ran away
“Elemental traces”.
"Correct."
Yuan Hua nodded in satisfaction.
"You're very smart, so it won't be difficult for us to get along."
"You flatter me, you flatter me. Compared to you, what am I doing..."
Kabang looked at the obvious burn marks on the ground and nodded thoughtfully.
"So this means..."
"This shows that the person's family heirloom is very tempting to the monk."
Yuan Hua took over the conversation directly.
"This is just a remote fishing village. People like me who are just passing through are very rare. It's hard to find someone like me here even once every few years."
"Because this fishing village is not an important transportation hub, there is no need for people to stop and rest while traveling."
"That's what you said."
Kabang nodded in approval.
“Magicians are indeed rare here. I’ve worked here for seven or eight years and I’ve only seen a magician no more than three times.”
"Um……"
Yuan Hua turned his gaze to the corpse on the ground.
"We can talk, but these things won't help us solve the case. Let's start with the body."
"I'll arrange for someone to come and perform an autopsy right away."
Kabang turned to leave.
"No need, I can do it."
Yuan Hua picked up the headless corpse from the ground and gently placed it on the table. He then lightly patted the table, and a set of surgical instruments appeared beside him.
"Sir, you..."
Kabang was speechless...
"You've studied quite a variety of things..."
"An autopsy of a mage is not that complicated."
Yuan Hua scanned the corpse briefly with his mental energy, then turned it over and scanned it again.
"There are multiple signs of beatings on his body, and the bruises are relatively shallow..."
"After that……"
Yuan Hua's gaze drifted slightly to the side...
"There's a lot of undigested food in my stomach, after a meal..."
……
"So? Any results yet?"
Seeing that Yuan Hua had taken off his gloves, Kabang finally couldn't help but ask.
"The time of death was around 1 a.m. I have also examined the head. There are still remnants in the corners of the mouth and esophagus, which indicates that the deceased was eating when the accident happened."
Yuan Hua looked around.
"There were no food scraps inside, even the trash cans were spotless, and..."
"It's just inexplicable."
You could say the killer was clean, but there was blood all over the place that wasn't cleaned up.
You could say he's dirty, but he takes all his food and trash with him, even the bathroom trash cans.
"Tara, you said you still remember what the person who asked you to come and deliver the pancakes looked like that day, right?"
Yuan Hua turned to look at the trembling Terra.
"Yes."
Terra nodded weakly...
"Then why didn't you say so sooner!"
Kabang immediately became excited.
"Don't worry."
Yuan Hua interrupted Kabang.
"They can't escape; the murderer will definitely come back."
"why?"
Kabang was somewhat confused.
"Because he hasn't taken his things yet."
Yuan Hua walked straight to the spot where the battle had left its mark and gently touched the wall...
Let me roughly reconstruct it.
"The reason the murderer called Terra over was probably to frame her, but unfortunately, he lacks common sense. Between 1 a.m. and dawn, the blood had long since congealed. Terra could not possibly be the murderer; he doesn't have that ability."
Yuan Hua still protects Terra.
“There is another way to leave such a mark.”
Yuan Hua tapped the wall lightly with his index finger.
"Alchemy tools."
Michael has learned to answer questions quickly.
"Correct."
Yuan Hua nodded.
"Terra told me that the deceased was targeted because of a family heirloom, is that right?"
"Yes."
Kabang nodded hesitantly.
"That's what the neighbors are saying..."
"It doesn't matter, it's no longer important whether it is or not."
Yuan Hua slammed his fist into the wall, and the wall, as if made of paper, broke open instantly.
"board?"
Michael curiously approached.
"Haha, it's here."
Yuan Hua took out a small stone talisman and placed it on the table.
"I was careless. I didn't notice there was a small hidden compartment here."
