Celestial Mage

Chapter 48



Chapter 48
Rosen is not short of money at the moment, so he will not cause extra problems that can be solved with money.

Old Murphy gave the conditions.

He didn't say a word, and the two gold crowns that everyone loved had already flown into the opponent's pocket.

"Mrs. Le Verrier in the clothing store, she gave the task. Because it was an urgent order, I paid a lot of money."

"Here, this is a silk bag used to hold money, and the bag smells of her perfume."

Old Murphy spoke very fast, his eyes looked around, and he looked like he was ready to run wildly at any time.

Rosen took the bag and sniffed it lightly. It did have a faint fragrance, and the styling materials were all high-quality.

And his action this time was a temporary idea, and it was impossible for the other party to prepare the money bag in advance, so his credibility was very high.

"get out!"

Old Murphy got up and left at such a fast speed that he didn't even need the tools for shining shoes.

Rosen took the money bag and walked slowly towards Le Verrier's clothing store, thinking about why the other party did this.

The proprietress of a clothing store lives a comfortable life and has no worries about food and drink. Even if it is out of inner jealousy, it is difficult for her to do such extreme things.

This is not Rosen's nonsense, it has been verified many times in history, and it is called the weakness of the petty bourgeoisie.

"Could it be her husband ordered it?"

Mr. Le Verrier and his mentor have a big feud, and they have a motive for committing the crime.

But how exactly, you have to check to find out.

"Oh, boy, are you ordering clothes again?"

It was Mr. Le Verrier who greeted him. Although he had a feud with Selandis, his attitude was still warm.

Because some time ago, Rosen spent a large amount of gold crowns here to order several sets of high-quality dresses for his mentor Serrandis at a high price.

But also because of Serrandis, the smile on his face was a bit forced.

Rosen smiled, his eyes closely watching the other party's reaction.

"Yes, as always, order a silk dress."

"Oh, don't get me wrong, this has nothing to do with Serendis, it's because I found a new spell instructor, who happens to be a noble lady."

Le Verrier's expression suddenly relaxed: "Oh, that's it. Sasha, Sasha, here's business."

Mrs. Le Verrier is in charge of the business of women's dresses, so Mr. Le Verrier immediately called his wife.

Such a reaction moved Rosen's heart: "He doesn't seem to know about buying murder to silence his mouth." '

After shouting, Le Verrier smiled again: "Please go to the second floor, my wife should already be waiting for you upstairs."

"thank you very much."

Rosen walked up the wooden stairs to the second floor of the clothing store.

In broad daylight, there were many customers in the store, and he was not worried about being attacked.

There are wooden hangers on the second floor, and there are sets of sample dresses on the racks. The racks are very tall, separating the space on the second floor into many relatively independent small spaces.

When Rosen walked, Mrs. Le Verrier walked over enthusiastically: "Oh, young man, what style of dress do you want to order?"

This woman was in her early thirties, with a pretty face, plump figure, and bright clothes. She looked like a wealthy woman with a good life.

It's hard to imagine that she would pay for murder.

Rosen had planned for a long time, and pointed to a deep purple dress in the corner: "I want to see that one."

"You have a good eye. This is the most popular style this year. Please follow me."

Madame Le Verrier, twirling her chubby hips, happily led the way.

After the two of them reached the corner, Rosen looked around and saw that no one else was paying attention, so he waved his hand and interrupted Mrs. Le Verrier's introduction of the clothes.

"Ma'am, actually I have something else to trouble you with."

"Oh, tell me, I will try my best to meet your needs."

Mrs. Le Verrier answered very naturally. After all, Rosen has always been generous and is a big customer.

Rosen took out the silk purse and handed it over, while closely observing the other party's reaction.

"Madam, I already know everything you did. If you don't want your current happy life to be affected, please cooperate with me."

While speaking, he was concentrating on it, and an iron ball had quietly floated into his pocket, in case the rich lady tore off the mask that might exist and suddenly exploded and hurt others.

Fortunately, Mrs. Le Verrier is just an ordinary person, she doesn't know any martial arts or spells at all.

In other words, she is still a pair of white gloves.

The moment she saw the silk purse, Mrs. Le Verrier's rosy face lost all color, her plump body trembled uncontrollably, and cold sweat broke out from her forehead at a speed visible to the naked eye.

She was terrified, but not out of her mind.

Taking a deep breath, she stared at the purse and threatened in a low voice.

"Okay, you little apprentice didn't learn well, and you dared to steal my purse! Come on, follow me to the magistrate, and I will let the magistrate cut off your dirty hands!"

Heh~ Bite back, I really have some quick wits, but it's a pity that it's limited.

If you really have the confidence, why make threats in a low voice?
If Rosen was just an ordinary boy, he might be bluffed by Mrs. Le Verrier's appearance, but unfortunately he was not.

Rosen laughed: "Okay, then let's go see the sheriff and see who is the real culprit who killed the alchemist Stan!"

These words broke Madame Le Verrier's pretense at once.

Her body trembled more violently, and she was immediately discouraged.

"What do you want?!"

His voice trembled, his eyes were fixed on the money bag, as if he wanted to snatch it back and swallow it, so as to destroy the evidence.

But she didn't dare to break her face, or even make too much noise, because she couldn't bear the good life now.

"How much do you want? How much can I return this purse to me?!"

Overwhelmed by fear, she completely lost the ability to think.

Rosen sighed inwardly.

'Sure enough, the appearance is glamorous, the life is good, and they seem noble and decent, but they are actually weak and deceptive, because this group of people will always lack the courage and determination to fight to the death. '

He took the purse back without haste.

"I don't want money, I just want to know who told you to do this. If you say it, I will destroy this money bag immediately, and let this disgraceful thing sink into the bottom of the water forever."

Madame Le Verrier spoke at once.

"It's a woman. She wears a hood that covers her face. I can't see her face clearly, but she is young and her voice is no older than 30. She said that if I do her a small favor, I will give me 10 crowns." I was confused for a moment, and I was greedy for this little advantage."

Rosen noticed that the other party's eyes were flickering, his heart moved, and he smiled coldly: "You are lying!"

Clothing stores earn a lot of money, how could it be possible to take such a huge risk for 10 crowns?

Madame Le Verrier's body shook, her face was pale and almost transparent.

"Well, it's not because of the 10 crowns, it's her. She has the evidence of my cheating. My husband is narrow-minded. If he finds out about it, I'm done."

This is believable.

Rosen chuckled: "With whom? Rasprin?"

Madame Le Verrier was speechless with trembling lips.

Obviously, Rosen guessed right again, and he has this key information, so he is not afraid that the other party will lie
"How tall is that woman?"

"Half a head taller than me, with a very good figure, the kind of goblin that every man will go crazy when he sees it. Oh, God is so eccentric!"

"When did we meet?"

"About four hours ago, by the way, the skirt on this woman didn't seem to fit well, it was a little tight. From the cuff of the sleeve, I saw a piece of leather wristband, which is the kind commonly used by ordinary soldiers. The kind with a layer of iron.

"By the way, she didn't wear perfume on her body, and she still smelled faintly of sweat."

Mrs. Le Verrier went on and on and gave more information than Rosen imagined.

"Four hours ago?"

After recalling it for a while, Rosen found that four hours ago, he had just arrived at the south of the city market, and happened to walk into the herbal medicine shop.

Therefore, if such a strangely dressed beauty appears in the market, it is likely to be recorded in the adventure log.

Thinking of this, Rosen immediately sank into the adventure log, adjusted the time, adjusted the center of view to the gate of Le Verrier's clothing store, and chose to play quickly.

Less than 2 minutes later, he saw the woman.

He was wearing a veiled hat, his face could not be seen clearly, and he was wearing a tight blue dress, which seemed to be wearing a suit of clothes underneath.

She was indeed in good shape, tall, and when Rosen was walking towards the herbal medicine shop, she also entered the tailor shop.

At first glance, she seemed to be just an ordinary customer in a clothing store.

It's a pity that Rosen entered the herbal medicine shop afterwards, so he didn't see the image of the other party leaving the clothing store.

But that's enough.

Rosen immediately asked, "Has she touched anything since she came to the store?"

Madame Le Verrier frowned, trying to remember, and suddenly her eyes lit up.

"By the way, she seems to have touched the large porcelain vase for flower arrangement on the side of the stairs, and then put it up and down."

"very good!"

Rosen turned to the side of the big porcelain vase and observed it carefully.

Sure enough, fingerprints were found.

Rosen immediately called up the thumbprints he had collected before and compared them carefully.

A few minutes later, his heart skipped a beat: "I finally found you!"

The woman in the blue skirt is the same person as the guy who put the jar last night, and it is very likely that he is the real culprit.

But to be honest, the matter has been investigated to this point, and the follow-up clues have actually been cut off.

There are tens of thousands of residents in Silvermoon Castle, and it is difficult to find the real culprit just by relying on a thumbprint and a heavily disguised figure.

Moreover, the other party may not stay in Silvermoon Castle all the time, once she leaves here, there will be nothing to investigate.

"How to do it?"

Rosen thought about it carefully, and his heart suddenly brightened.

"Why does this woman use an ordinary person like Mrs. Le Verrier as a white glove?"

"Wouldn't it be better to just hand over the list to Old Murphy? Why bother to turn a corner?"

"It's a waste of time and doesn't have much hidden meaning."

"Unless, her identity is sensitive, and she is worried that old Murphy, who does dirty work, will recognize her true identity!"

Things suddenly took a new breakthrough.

As long as he took the portrait of the woman in blue and asked those underground middlemen who took the dirty work, he might find this person out.

No, it doesn't have to be so troublesome!

Finding a middleman is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it also gives the real murderer more time to respond.

He must be fast, make moves as fast as possible, so that the opponent is caught off guard and panics!
How can it be fast?

Four words, scare the snake!

"Then, let me see who you are!"
