Whether it was fighting or looting, the male servant did a very good job.

However, there are still some flaws. Alas, there are more to this story than meets the eye. It's no longer an ordinary supernatural case. The servant can intimidate the gangsters and Scarface, but he can't intimidate the people behind Scarface.

This is where the great mentor Elisa should step in.

Elisa turned off the light screen, put on a trench coat, took the "Mirror of Mist" in her hand, and went into the dressing mirror.

The next moment, she emerged from the tavern's mirror.

"Mirror Travel" is the most useful ability of the "Mirror of Mist" in her hand.

Arriving in the tavern's restroom, Elisa looked in the mirror and sighed.

I originally planned to use the "Mirror of Mist" to rescue the male servant if something happened to him, thus gaining his favor. Unexpectedly, not only did the male servant not have any problems, but he also resolved the situation. I never imagined that scarred-face man would be a superhuman.

As Elisa pushed open the bathroom door, she was about to make her entrance, but then she stepped back.

Another uninvited guest has arrived.

……

"Don't move." The masked Eleanor stepped out of the shadows, her revolver pointed at Rupert, who had just broken free of his restraints.

Rupert raised his hand, cursing inwardly, "Damn it, why are they doing this again!"

Eleanor nodded in satisfaction. "As expected of me, I took control of the leader right from the start. It's a pity; I thought there would be a gang war, but there was only one person in the tavern, and he wisely surrendered."

"Are you harassing Beth's family?" Eleanor questioned Rupert.

Rupert answered truthfully, adding with a wry smile, "Someone warned me, and he just left."

What? Someone beat me to it!

Was it someone hired by Susanna's side? Or by Elisa's side?

I realized that Beth's family was being threatened because Mabel said on her way home that Beth seemed very wary and uneasy about the outside world.

How did Susanna or Elisa discover it? Or was it not them?

Eleanor asked about the previous attacker, and Rupert described the man's physique. She then inquired about the murders and learned that they were serial, which initially shocked her, but then excited her.

A small incident has escalated into a major case, and the protagonist is increasingly taking center stage!

Having concluded her questioning regarding the case, Eleanor proceeded with her final business.

"Hand over all the money!" Eleanor stared at Rupert.

Rupert was silent for a moment, then numbly replied, "No."

"Ha, trying to fool me? I found a safe under your desk. What's the combination?" Eleanor demanded sharply.

Rupert paused for a moment, then replied, "Left 6, Right 2, Left 11."

Eleanor held a gun in one hand, pointing it at Rupert, and with the other hand, she turned the combination lock, unlocking the safe.

The safe door popped open, and Eleanor reached in with delight, only to find nothing.

Her smile froze, and she stared incredulously into the box.

Why is it empty!

“The last visitor took it,” Rupert said, pointing to the ground with a sneer. “If you want money, here’s a quarter-pence coin he left behind.”

Eleanor was pleasantly surprised and brandished the gun: "Pick it up and give it to me!"

Rupert was surprised that the other party actually wanted the small copper coin.

Bullshit! Why did I say that? I already learned my lesson!

He had to crawl on the ground, in a very undignified manner, to pick up the small copper coin from under the table and toss it to Eleanor.

After putting away her spoils, Eleanor warned Rupert again and left the tavern.

Rupert sat wearily in his chair and sighed deeply.

I encountered two groups of righteous heroes in one night. What incredible luck I have!

He probably won't come back, right? He looked around warily.

Chapter 47 Elisa chooses speedrun

Elisa leaned against the bathroom wall, listening to Eleanor and Rupert's conversation, lost in thought.

Scarface didn't tell Eleanor that there were higher-ups behind the murder, nor did he mention that he was a superhuman.

This is because Eleanor didn't ask at all; she didn't realize that Scarface wasn't just an ordinary gangster.

Eleanor's wisdom is ultimately inferior to that of my manservant, who, like me, is still at the curly-haired baboon stage.

Wait, how did she discover that Beth's family was under threat? Elisa's expression froze.

We're both curly-haired baboons, so how come you're smarter than me?

Or did Eleanor receive off-field assistance?

No, that's not the most important thing right now. If Eleanor isn't stupid, she'll realize that the last attacker was very likely connected to me, and the valet is very likely to be exposed.

Elisa thought for a while, then heard a sound coming from outside the door.

"Heh, I'm so panicked. This is already the second attack, how could there possibly be a third one?"

Elisa put on the "Thousand Faces" and pushed open the bathroom door.

Rupert stared in astonishment at the sudden appearance of the third person.

"...You bunch of bastards, do you really think I'm easy to bully?!" Rupert retorted angrily, rushing towards the third attacker in one stride.

Elisa raised her hand, her palm loosely clenched.

Rupert felt his blood freeze, his heart gripped by an invisible force, and he instantly lost all strength, falling flat on his face.

He tried his best to control his muscles and channel his spiritual energy, but he still couldn't control his body.

That's bullshit! This is at least a fourth or fifth-tier being, close to a demigod!

I must have had the worst luck in my past lives! This is the third time already! This kind of powerful person is capable of being the head of a small city outside the capital, why are they looking for someone as insignificant as me!

“I’m entrusting my students to your care,” Elisa said softly.

She thought that although Eleanor wouldn't admit it, she could at least claim the title. This was also to protect Eleanor and prevent those behind the scenes from targeting her.

"It would be my honor," Rupert said with a forced smile, completely abandoning the idea of ​​investigating the two attackers.

Thinking back to his encounter with the first attacker, he felt a chill of fear. Luckily, he was powerless to resist; otherwise, if he had injured the attacker, this powerful figure in front of him would have torn him apart.

Speaking of which, those two really do seem to have come from the same teacher; they both like to swindle money, not even letting go of small copper coins!

"Is there anything else you're hiding?" Elisa asked again.

Rupert added some more details, the main parts of which were the same as what he had told Simon.

Elisa nodded and walked out of the tavern.

Instead of going back, she went to the murder scene she had visited during the day.

This was a quiet alley, deserted under the cover of night. The ground was a dirt road, and the blood had long since been cleaned up.

She activated the "Blood" spell and discovered dried bloodstains in the cracks of the walls of the houses by the roadside.

The dried blood clot turned into a thin blood thread, floating on Elisa's palm.

Elisa sighed.

Whether Mabel came to me or the valet asked me about it, I didn't intend to get involved, but now, it's impossible to ignore it.

The servant has obtained a lot of information, enough to support the subsequent investigation. Eleanor is even less likely to give up and will definitely continue to take risks, dragging me along with her.

To restore a peaceful life, the only solution is to act decisively and cleanly.

With a snap of her fingers, she activated "Blood Tracking." As long as the murderer didn't thoroughly clean their body and didn't leave the capital, they wouldn't escape the pursuit.

The blood vessels swirled around on her fingertips, then fell silent.

You really can't find it?

Elisa sighed again, having used the power of the divine artifact within her body. Her spiritual energy was rapidly depleted, and her face turned pale.

The blood vessels finally reacted and quickly darted forward.

She followed the trail of blood, walked out of the eastern district, and came to a suburban cemetery.

Blood vessels swirled in the corner of the cemetery.

Activating her "Spirit Vision," Elisa saw her target: a curly-haired baboon.

"..."

I inexplicably felt like I was being mocked.

The curly-haired baboon spotted her, let out a silent roar, and pounced on her, its sharp claws aimed at her chest.

Elisa stepped aside and observed the curly-haired baboon's situation.

It was a spirit... no, a half-spirit. No wonder no one had witnessed it, no wonder "blood trail tracking" didn't work at first. It used those sharp claws to pierce its victim.

I never imagined that the killer was an extraordinary animal.
