Gossip aside, after selling the mechanical centaur, Du Yuqi and his group finally got two thousand magic gold coins, which was considered a small contribution, and then naturally began to search the entire opera house.
Of course, these people invited by the Latniss family did this kind of thing, and the information they got back was quite bad. The people who got caught either didn’t know anything, while the reformed fighters who knew the inside story didn’t say a word. , tight-lipped.
Finally, after a long while, this group of people found some clues reluctantly, so they asked Du Yuqi and the others to take a look.
Following in the footsteps of these people, Du Yuqi walked towards the aisle next to the opera house. You can see that the decoration here is also very exquisite. The wall lamp on the wall has been made into the shape of a lion's head. Every hair They are all lifelike, and the stepped pattern under the feet is also carved with a scene of a lion taking a nap in the rose garden. This is a very common decorative pattern in the Delos Empire, and it also has the function of anti-slip.
Then they entered the VIP box of an opera house. This is a common place for the upper class to socialize. The plots, marriages, etc. of nobles often occur in this kind of place, and they can enjoy the best effect of opera performances. , although Shatley is bitterly cold in winter, it is a very good summer resort in summer, so although there are a total of 37 VIP boxes here, and the monthly subscription price of each VIP box exceeds 500 magic gold coins. The time is still in short supply.
The VIP box is very large and there are many decorations. The three fireplaces inside are burning, so the temperature inside can be said to be as warm as spring. However, when everyone enters, they focus on the carpet of the box. Because there were two dead bodies lying there.
To be precise, they were the corpses of two women with disheveled dresses. They were so disheveled that it was almost obvious at a glance what they had suffered before they died.
At the same time, there is a dining table next to it, which looks very messy, with a lot of leftovers.
After seeing this scene, the first thing Du Yuqi did was to clean up the scene, driving out all the idle and irrelevant people, and then began to observe carefully. What he did included but was not limited to eating leftovers on every plate. I found some of them to taste, and even lay down on the carpet for several minutes...
Uh, to use Chang Chang's original words, it is like a polo dog from the motherland of Xu, carefully sniffing the ground with its nose.
After a few minutes, Du Yuqi stood up from the ground, stroked the black dimensional ring on her finger, her face was a little dignified, but she said excitedly:
"We should have caught a big fish."
"Ah?" No one expected Du Yuqi to say that.
Du Yuqi pondered for a moment, probably organizing his words, then pointed to the two female corpses and said:
"Maybe everyone just noticed that they were violated, but one of the women is likely to be a local in Shatley, and the other should be from a false motherland thousands of miles away, because the clothes of the two The style seems to be a little different."
There were three girls present, and after seeing Du Yuqi's pointing finger, they realized that what Du Yuqi said was right. Although the clothes of the two dead women were torn and rubbed, they still showed many problems. It belongs to the Delos Empire, and the women of the Delos Empire like to decorate their clothes with lace, bows, and pleats, and then match them with complicated jewelry, hats with feathers, and so on.
On the other hand, Xuzu's women's clothing pays special attention to embroidery decorative patterns, such as cloud patterns, phoenix bird patterns, etc. Of course, the most typical ones are the existence of tassels, and half of the chest of another dead woman on the ground was stained with some kind of tassels. An unknown kind of tassel is dangling...
Everytime he nodded and said:
"Yes, these two girls really don't come from the same place, you can tell even if you don't look at the difference in clothing - look at the tattoo on her back, it's a typical phoenix pattern, well, it's on Xi's martial arts uniform I've seen patterns like this before."
"Women in the Delos Empire don't seem to have the habit of tattooing this part, but if you get a tattoo here, in Xu Zu's summer, the thin dress will make this tattoo faintly visible, and the charm will increase."
After hearing what Chang Tong said, Ming Xi's eyes suddenly lit up and said:
"Yes, indeed!"
She picked up the girl's left hand, pointed to her index finger and said:
"Did you see the cocoon on this part? Most of Xu Zu's girls can do embroidery. For them, this is not a job, but a social activity. It seems that in Xu Zu's concept, women with better embroidery skills A child can be included in the category of outstanding talent, and will be given extra welcome when looking for a partner... One point is a coincidence, two points are accidental, and after these three points are complete, the girl's identity can almost be confirmed. "
"And then?" Xi suddenly asked coldly.
Du Yuqi suddenly noticed that Xi's complexion didn't seem very good-looking, and it probably started when he heard Ming Xi say, "Girls with better embroidery are also included in the category of outstanding talents", and he immediately understood. Ming Xi It must have been unintentional to say something unpleasant before... It seems that Xi is also a girl of Xuzu, and it seems that Xi is not likely to touch embroidery or the like...
Du Yuqi immediately coughed twice, changed the topic and said:
"Next, let's take a look at the food on the table. This dish should be veal stewed with tiger snails. Take out the meat of the tiger snails, mince them with the veal, stuff them back into the shell, and finally pour them over Steamed in red wine sauce for five minutes, uh, although I haven’t eaten it, I have eaten something similar in my hometown.”
"Uh, scallops, cheese, and dried shrimp are added to this bean and wheat rice dish. It can be seen that people like this taste very much, so there is only a little left in such a big plate. Oh, look at this Wine bottles, three full bottles of Grüner Vettering sparkling wine that have been drained, haven’t you discovered anything yet?”
Du Yuqi suddenly asked such a rhetorical question, and the rest of the people shook their heads, often turning blue and suddenly said:
"If you're hungry, I still have a lot to eat here, why do you bother to eat the leftovers here?"
Du Yuqi covered her face and said in pain:
"Ah, hey!! Am I stealing these leftovers? Do I look like this? I want to judge the enemy's stay time from the freshness of the food!! Well, you guys Look at the dishes on the table, are they the style of Shatley? Is this the signature dish of the Principality of Belle Mare?"
"As for the wine, let's not talk about it. Anyway, I have eaten in Shatley these days. To be honest, the alcohol in the wine bottle on the dining table here is not at all below 50 degrees, okay? This kind of sparkling wine with more than 10 degrees is impossible to appear on the local people's table!"
After being told by Du Yuqi, others came to their senses at this time. The Delos Empire has vast agricultural land, with a dry and cold climate. It grows a large amount of wheat, sorghum grains and potatoes, and uses them as staple food. At the same time, because of the centuries-old martial arts tradition of the empire and the long-term cultural collision with the northern barbarians, this is also an area where spirits and meat are highly respected.
Therefore, its food style is that the empire advocates "big", "whole" and "many" unrestrained cooking. Whether it is a party of common people or a party of nobles, grilled dishes can almost be seen. Common people may be grilled chicken and grilled steaks. The aristocratic party is roast beef shank, so for the residents of Shatley, it is very disrespectful to have no roasted dishes in a meal... and the exquisitely cooked dishes on this table obviously have obvious exotic flavors.
Therefore, all kinds of clues gathered together, and the situation became very obvious. In order to please the person who ate here, the group of people entrenched in the opera house first tried their best to prepare him a meal full of exotic food in Chately in winter. Afterwards, two women were arranged, one is local and the other is from Xu's motherland.
Obviously, no matter who wants to get such a large table of dishes and two beauties, it will take a lot of trouble, so the identity of this person must be very important.
At the same time, this person has a good appetite. A table full of dishes was eaten in disorder. The salt in the dishes is obviously heavy (Du Yuqi tasted it), which is equivalent to very salty for ordinary people, which means This person usually has a heavy mouth, and the electrolytes in his body are in a state of loss. This kind of situation will only happen to people who do heavy physical exercise every day. Drill yourself hard.
At the same time, Du Yuqi inspected the two women. Although their clothes were torn and scattered, as if they had been raped many times, the actual inspection results showed that they had not been substantially violated, but their bodies were sensitive. There are large groups of bruises on the site, and it is obvious that he has suffered a lot during his lifetime.
Then, Du Yuqi said again:
"Everyone can come and take a look. I will restore the scene. Do you think the place where the dinner plate is placed is a bit short? There are also snail shells and fish bones that he threw away casually here?"
When Du Yuqi said this, everyone was a little confused, but when Du Yuqi sat down on the carpet instead of sitting in the chair next to him, he suddenly realized that everything made sense:
"This person has a very strange quirk. He seems unwilling to sit on a stool, but likes to sit on the ground and stay in a corner. From a psychological point of view, this is a sign of insecurity and suspicion. It is precisely because of this, The whole table and plate placement would explain it."
Therefore, after the analysis reached this step, Du Yuqi had already labeled the person in the room one by one:
He has a high status, he has to do a lot of exercise every day, he eats a lot, and his body has defects, which leads to abnormal behavior! Judging from the temperature of the food, he has been away for less than thirty minutes. He doesn't like to sit on stools. He has a quirk and likes to sit in a corner, acting suspiciously.
There is no doubt that he is the next target to be tracked!
