"The bodies of the eight swordsmen who guarded Mr. Thales at the time of the incident are all here. On the one hand, out of respect, and also because the matter was urgent, we did not touch them and kept them as they were."

Gilbert said to the stern-looking Jinnie in front of the eight corpses in the corridor on the third floor of Mindis Hall.

Yoder stood quietly aside.

"Six mortal-level swordsmen with outstanding skills and rich combat experience, who were expected to break through to the super-level, as well as two genuine super-level masters, all had their neck arteries pierced by irregular sharp weapons."

Gilbert walked to a corpse and squatted down, pressing the corpse's neck. An ugly and terrible wound was revealed. The wound had changed color, and even the blood had coagulated.

"Our preliminary estimate is that the opponent may be an extreme master. To kill these eight people in an instant requires exquisite skills and immeasurable strength. And his speed cannot even catch up with Yodel."

"There is also that terrifying hidden ability. When the invasion occurred, even though we had guarded all the entrances and exits, he still slipped in, but Yoder didn't feel anyone at all."

Gilbert expressed his guess with a heavy face. He took out a mechanical watch from his arms and stared at the time on it: half past six in the evening.

Even the moon has risen.

Jinni frowned and pursed her charming lips tightly, highlighting the beauty mark on her lips. She folded her arms and thought deeply for a while, then suddenly raised her hands and snapped her fingers.

.

"Take off their helmets."

Gilbert glanced at him, and several guards nearby stepped forward and took off the deceased's helmet.

Jinni walked forward, wearing the elegant high-heeled boots of a female officer, squatting on one knee, and carefully observed everyone's face.

"With massive bleeding from the carotid artery, the time before death will not be very long. It will only be enough for them to struggle on the ground for a period of time. This period of time is the time they each witnessed the murderer."

"The expressions of each of them," Jinni said cautiously while leaning over to observe, "are all slightly different."

"These four were lying on their stomachs, and their expressions before death were very consistent, anger, hatred, unwillingness, and gnashing of teeth. They may have no way of reacting at all, and they were faced with people who were severely injured and died, and who didn't know the truth until they died.

Such unwillingness and resentment.”

"These two were lying on their sides, with expressions of shock, disbelief and confusion. They should have sensed the murderer's fatal blow, and tried their best to fight back but it was ineffective. This made them very surprised and confused. They were lying on the ground struggling.

It took a while for this expression to solidify on my face."

"The last two should be the strongest. One is lying on his back and the other is sitting leaning against the wall. Their expressions are much more subtle than the first six. The one lying down shows regret and pain, and the one sitting shows relief and helplessness. They also

They tried hard to fight back, but still failed. But they should be the last ones to die, so they struggled to see the murderer, so they had regrets and sudden realization before death. In other words, for the two of them, as long as they were prepared in advance

Once you know the enemy's identity, you can respond effectively."

Jinni stood up with a cold face, crossed her arms, looked at the helpless Gilbert next to her, and said decisively:

"The murderer is not an extreme master!"

"If it is the extreme state of being so powerful that it cannot be resisted, the last two people will be in despair and fear. The murderer should have used a special technique, superpower or mechanism. He cleverly started with the strong one first, and then ended up with

Six weaker people, so after the two strongest people fell, they had the opportunity and time to see the murderer and his killing methods."

"Although he has not reached the extreme level, his speed is very fast. He may be close to or even exceed half of the extreme level masters. However, because he has not reached the extreme level, there is still a priority when killing people."

Yoder stepped forward and squatted in front of the body, seeming to verify Jinni's words.

Gilbert stared blankly at the woman in front of him, as if he saw the high-spirited young girl in the courtroom twenty years ago.

And the young, sunny young man who often stands behind her.

He sighed secretly in his heart and walked up to her.

"Ms. Ji Ni, I know that you were once the most outstanding security officer in the royal capital. You even participated in the investigation of the royal assassination case in the Year of Blood, tracked down the energy magician, and even the kingdom's secret department often seconded you." Keir.

Bert put his hands behind his back and said calmly:

"Your reasoning is also very exciting, as sharp as before."

"But our top priority is to find that child."

Jinni thought deeply and glanced at him.

The best vigilance officer?

Her fists clenched inadvertently.

Bullshit vigilance officer.

But this charming lady did not show any emotion. Instead, she habitually touched the beauty mark on the left side of her lip with her left hand on her other arm and chuckled silently.

"Men are indeed the epitome of carelessness and carelessness."

Gilbert narrowed his eyes and raised the top hat slightly to show doubts.

"Didn't I make it clear enough?" Jin Ni put down her hands, strode forward unceremoniously, pointed at the corpse in front of her, and said confidently:

"These two super-level guards are the strongest, and they are also the first to be attacked when they stand together. These two people are second, and the other four are the last to be attacked. But the order of their deaths is reversed: the last

The strong man struggled to the end and saw the murderer!"

"As long as I determine their location before the attack, I can follow the trajectory and find the location where the murderer invaded."

"Although there was so much bleeding that the blood stains were mixed together, it was difficult to find traces of the guards struggling to move before they died."

"However, based on the time of arterial bleeding and the speed at which people fall to the ground and struggle, two circles can be drawn with the two strongest people as the center. This is their movement range from before being attacked to death."

"Don't forget, these two strongest men were attacked by the same weapon almost at the same time. In other words, they were standing together before the attack."

"So, the intersection of these two circles is the location where they were attacked!"

"Two circles have two intersections. One of them is the answer. It is the location where the two people were actually attacked, which is also the location where the murderer invaded." Ji Ni looked attentively, drawing out the shape with her steps step by step, and speaking.

The content inside made both Gilbert and Yodel look at it seriously.

"According to the last glances of the two strongest men before they died, the murderer appeared at this location after killing everyone. I guess it is also where the child stood."

"Starting from the last appearance of the murderer," Ji Ni stood at that position and stepped back step by step. "Following the order in which they were attacked, we roughly found the murderer's movement path." Ji Ni slowly walked past several corpses, and then walked

Returning to the corpses of the two strongest men, "At the end of the path, the area connecting these two circles, the closest one, is this intersection!"

Jinni walked past the swaying corpses with sharp eyes, and finally stood in one place:

"This is where the two strongest men were attacked first. In other words, it is where the murderer invaded and took action first!"

Gilbert walked forward quickly and looked around.

"You mean, the murderer suddenly appeared here?" He said slowly: "The mercenary team did attack here. But it's impossible. It's far away from the stairs. He had nowhere to hide while we were cleaning up the mess.

.”

Jinni chuckled contemptuously again.

Only Yoder walked up silently and pointed to a small decorative vase next to him.

This kind of vase is very common in the corridor, but this one is the closest to Jinni's position.

Under Gilbert's puzzled gaze, Jinnie quickly stepped forward, grabbed the vase, and smashed it without hesitation!

"Boom!"

She silently knelt down and picked up a fragment of a vase. After observing it carefully, she lightly touched the inner wall of the fragment with her fingers and showed it to the two "useless men".

Gilbert was surprised to find that there were red blood stains on Jinnie's fingers!

Yodel also squatted down and picked up a few fragments.

There are also tiny drops of blood on the inner wall of the vase.

"Nowhere to hide?" Jinnie laughed sarcastically, making Gilbert a little embarrassed.

"So," Gilbert took the fragments of the vase and his expression changed: "This is-"

Jinni stood up and said emphatically:

"Victims: eight. Cause of death: carotid artery bleeding."

"The murderer: a super vampire, a vampire. The murder weapon: the vampire's claws——"

When Jinni was getting excited, she was suddenly startled and realized the current situation.

So, she gritted her teeth and swallowed the next words back into her mouth.

After all, I am no longer a security officer.

Jinni shook her head to clear away irrelevant emotions.

"So, he relied on his natural talent for converting blood to sneak into hiding, and relied on his natural instantaneous speed to kill and plunder - not his own strength." Jinni raised her head and rolled her eyes at Gilbert: "This is you

Are you talking about an extreme master?"

Gilbert was very embarrassed, but he knew this was not the time to vent his anger, so he asked kindly: "It's really an eye-opener, so, that kid?"

Is this an eye-opener? Jinni thought disdainfully.

What a high-ranking person with a narrow vision - if you have seen the "secret science" of the stars, the "dark room" of Exeter, the Wu Yiwei of the Suye Dynasty and the "Quintana" of the Hamble Dynasty,

If you have seen their methods, you will know how many scary people there are in the darkness under the table. They can know all your secrets with just a move of your fingers.

Then, with a sharp look in her eyes, she said decisively: "The incident - when it happened, the sun had not set yet! He could only hide in those groups of employees by turning into blood!"

"The vampires who are not in the extreme realm can only transform into blood and water, and the time will not exceed half an hour. This shows that those teams of hirelings arrived here within half an hour!"

"A team of employees are rushing at full speed. Half an hour away from Evening Star District, there are only Dongcheng District where aristocratic manors are located, Morning Star District where the city hall and business gathering place are, and Central District where Fuxing Palace is located!"
