Taking advantage of the darkness, Kino used telekinesis to fly out of Danyu City and came to an uninhabited forest, where he opened an independent space.

He put the carbon ash brought back by Solandel on the laboratory table, raised his head and said, "Number Zero, analyze what the carbon ash is before it is burned."

"Okay, please wait." No. 0's voice sounded, and the laboratory table was immediately sealed by a transparent mask. The analysis rays swept back and forth on the carbon ash, and various data appeared on the screen at the top.

A few minutes later, Zero gave Chino a reply: "Based on the hydrocarbon content and trace element analysis, the carbon ash contained a large amount of wood fiber and wood parenchyma before it was burned. After comparison with the biobank data, it was speculated that it was some kind of

Wooden material.”

"Wood material?" Kino's eyes became more and more profound, and he asked in a deep voice, "Is it possible that it is other plants? For example, wheat?"

Soon, a big cross lit up on the screen, and the voice of No. 0 also came: "According to the element ratio analysis, the possibility is 0."

The granary is an important area for fire prevention. All building materials are stone or metal. The same goes for the shelves and office equipment in the warehouse. Any wooden materials are prohibited. Normally, such things cannot appear in the granary.

At this moment, Kino's mind kept flashing back all the information about the incident in Danyu City. The royal family ordered the blood essence grass to be replanted. Danyu City's yin and yang went against the will, a sudden south wind blew up during the Dragon Fire Festival, and the granary was mysteriously burned down by desert fire. In addition, the letter

A letter that says "Po is dead"

If the previous clues were fragmented, it always felt like there was a missing link somewhere, making it difficult for people to guess the truth.

So now, after Zero has confirmed that these carbon ash are made of wood, the missing link has been filled in, and all the clues have been connected in series!

On the night of the Dragon Fire Festival, the things burned in the granary by the desert fire were not grain at all, but bags after bags of wooden items. The most likely thing was wood chips that looked similar to grain after being bagged!

Kino couldn't help but sneer: "You're so talented, Gome and Lin Gengsen, you all dare to do this kind of thing."

He didn't care about the charcoal ash anymore. After going out, he collected the independent space and rushed back to the camp.

Solandel had already taken a bath, put on clean clothes, and was draping a blanket over her shoulders while drinking the ginger soup just made by the chef. Although Danyu City was like spring all year round, she was weak and had been soaked in the rain for a long time outside.

I have a slight cold.

Seeing that Kino was back, Solandel hurriedly asked: "No, will the carbon ash I gave you help? If not, I can continue to look for other clues. The 24 hours we agreed on have not yet come."

Kino stretched out his hand to stop, then closed the curtain and said silently: "On the night of the fire at the Dragon Fire Festival, what was burned in the granary was not grain, but sawdust."

"Sawdust?!" This conclusion was so shocking that Solandel and Lorna were immediately stunned and even forgot to ask Kino why he knew such a thing.

Solandel asked in disbelief: "How could it be sawdust?! Where is the grain in the granary? Where did it go?!"

Kino shrugged: "What do you think?"

Lorna suddenly realized it, patted her head and said: "You mean, the officials of Danyu City deliberately replaced the grain in the granary with sawdust and burned it, lying to everyone that the grain was burned, but in fact it was

Are they greedy themselves?!"

Kino nodded and added an explanation: "In my opinion, the original idea of ​​the Danyu City officials was that they did not want to pull out the wheat stalks because it would offend the nobles who contracted the fields, so they secretly exchanged wood for grain and borrowed dragon fire.

Jie planned a fire tragedy in order to embezzle the relief food shipped from the royal city."

"After getting these grains, they can sell them or mortgage them to the nobles in exchange for a huge sum of money, and then buy a sufficient amount of blood essence grass from the Far East caravan and hand it over to the royal city."

"First of all, it can be made clear that there is no problem with the idea of ​​the plan and it can create a win-win situation."

"The nobles are happy because this season's harvest in Danyu Plain has been preserved and the initial investment has not been wasted."

"The Far East caravan was happy. It exchanged the common blood essence grass in the country for a huge amount of liquidity. This was a good deal."

"The royal family is happy because they have obtained the blood essence grass they need, which can be used to create purifying blood to control animal epidemics."

"Of course the officials in Danyu City are also happy. They paid their jobs on time and their promotions are only a few steps away."

"However, the officials of Danyu City missed one point, and that is the death of A Bao. The most important link in their plan, A Bao, who was responsible for connecting the trade between Doguland and the Far East Dynasty, had already died before."

"After A Bao died, blood essence grass could no longer be purchased, and the whole plan fell apart. Originally, they had another way out, which was to quickly implement the royal decree, pull out wheat stalks to cultivate blood essence grass, and use millions of tons of food aid to make up for the resulting food shortage.

gap."

"But don't forget, the fire at the Dragon Fire Festival has already happened. In the public's perception, the million tons of relief grains have been burned long ago, and the grain officials responsible for this have been killed."

"If they take out the food now, wouldn't they admit to the whole world that they are embezzling public food? They can't do this at all. They can only bite the bullet and continue to bully the royal family and hide it from the people."

After hearing this, Solandel's face turned pale and her voice began to tremble: "You mean, the million tons of relief grains are actually in the city. In order to cover up the crime of corruption, the officials of Danyu City deliberately did not take it out and watched the whole crowd helplessly.

More than 6 million people in the city were affected and starved to death?!"

Kino refused to comment.

"Absurd." Solandel gritted her teeth and cried with anger, "Even in the darkest period of the founding of Doguland in 513, I have never heard of such absurd things! These officials in Danyu City will not die.

The royal family has no face to explain to the people!"

Lorna was also furious and said seriously: "Kino, give the order and send troops to overthrow the consul's mansion. I will lead the charge for you!"

Kino shook his head and said calmly: "Killing people now will not solve the problem. We know the truth, but there is no evidence. The officials of Danyu City must have colluded and will not admit the crime even to death."

"Moreover, the key point now is where are the millions of tons of grain? If we can't find it, everything will be in vain. If we can find it and have evidence, we can arrest the corrupt officials and bring them to justice, and the people of Danyu City will have hope of living.

The decree on cultivating Blood Essence Grass can then be implemented smoothly."

Lorna urged: "Just tell me, what are you going to do? Is there anything we can do to help you?"

Kino has the pupil of divine vision, which can theoretically see anything in the world. Unfortunately, the pupil of divine vision can only be turned on for 20 seconds a day. Now that he doesn't know the specific location of the food, blindly searching for it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Kino thought for a long time, constructing plans in his mind. After about ten minutes, he suddenly said: "Prince Lorna."

Lorna blushed with embarrassment, rubbed her arms and said, "We are friends, don't be so serious and call me Prince, it's weird."
