"Then, did you find any other footprints around here?"
Ryuga asked Grey. "This place is near the node of House Ezeruma's land. Theoretically speaking, there should be very few people who can come here, right?"
"Did you find any other clues?"
Hearing Ryuga's words, Elemero II no longer continued to fight with Lainice. He turned his head and looked at Ryuga. "I haven't been here for long. I hope you can tell me more about this incident."
"Of course."
Ryuga nodded. "During the party, I wasn't affected by Huang Jinji's beauty, so I could clearly tell that Huang Jinji's beauty was out of the ordinary. Although Bai Yinji was wearing a veil, I could tell that Huang Jinji's beauty far surpassed Bai Yinji's."
"Huang Jinji's beauty far surpassed Bai Yinji's?"
Before Emelo II could react, Lainice was the first to be shocked. She quickly said, "Are you sure you didn't make a mistake? I was there at the time, but I didn't notice at all. "
"No, on the contrary, I think what Yin-Yang said might be true."
Elemero II interrupted Lainice's question and frowned. "Before I came here, I had someone investigate Ezeruma's recent situation."
"To be honest, their research on creating the most beautiful human has been stagnant for nearly a hundred years. It's hard to imagine that they could overcome the technical difficulties in such a short time and even advance to the level of [Origin]."
"If Huang Jinji's beauty far exceeds Bai Yinji's, then it fits my guess. But how did they do it?"
Elemero II frowned deeply as if he had fallen into an inextricable mystery. He turned to Ryuga and asked, "Do you have any other clues?"
"Yes."
Ryuga nodded and asked, "I remember that the entire Baruyereta family's goal is to create the ultimate beauty. Then, I think House Ezeruma's puppetry technology should be superb."
"That's right."
Ermero II nodded. "The Izeluma Family's puppetry technology is indeed not bad, but that's only limited to its appearance. Their appearance is enough to pass off as the real thing. After all, they are a family that pursues beauty, but their functions are only average."
"That's enough."
Ryuga nodded thoughtfully, "When Huang Jinji and Bai Yinji showed up, I had a strange discovery. Theoretically, Huang Jinji, Bai Yinji and the twin maids should be standing on the terrace together; however, there were only three people on the terrace at that time."
"Huang Jinji, Bai Yinji, and Bai Yinji's maid, Regina … The last maid is a dummy made of dolls."
After a short pause, Ryuga continued, "And that dummy is Huang Jinji's maid, Karina. It's very realistic, almost exactly the same as her."
"Three people!"
Ermero II's eyes lit up when he heard this, as if he had found a key clue. "In other words, only Huang Jinji, Diadona, Bai Yinji, Estella, and the maid, Regina appeared at the party …"
"I see, I see. I was wondering how they did it … Indeed, if there were only two people, it wouldn't be possible, but if a third person was added, it would make sense in theory."
Ermero II seemed to have fallen into a brainstorm. He lowered his head and muttered to himself, ignoring Ryuga and the others.
"This way, the first murder case should be solved … But the problem is the second one. Who killed Karina, and why did that person do it …"
"Brother?"
Ryuga woke Ermero II from his thoughts and said with a helpless expression, "I know that it's a bad habit of detectives to talk to themselves, but at least your cute sister is here. I hope you can explain it to us in detail."
"Ah, sorry."
Ermero II reluctantly apologized, but after thinking about it, he didn't explain. "But I can't be sure now. I need to take a look at Huang Jinji's body before I can make a judgment … Oh right, there's also the footprints. If my deduction is correct, the two footprints should overlap in the end."
"Ryuga, use magic to copy Karina's footprints."
Ryuga pouted in dissatisfaction, making her cheeks round. "It's fine if you don't answer my question, but you're ordering me to do manual labor. Just you wait."
Although she was complaining, Ryuga still walked to the side of the spring and used a magic token to create a stream of water. Then, using the principle of a water mirror, she copied Karina's footprints.
"Compare it with Huang Jinji's footprints in your memory." Ermero II continued to give instructions.
The magic circuit in a magician's body had the function of recording. As long as a magician learned how to control the magic circuit, they could store their own memories and replay them in their mind at will.
Ryuga followed Ermero's instructions and compared Karina's footprints with Huang Jinji's footprints in her memory. Then, she was shocked.
"Eh? Eh! It can't be? How can it be exactly the same?! "
The conclusion that came out of Lenise's mouth shocked Grey.
Ryuga had already guessed it, but her expression was still calm.
"Sure enough, this proves that my deduction is correct."
A faint smile appeared on Ermero II's face, but then he became serious again. "Ryuga, continue to search for footprints in the surroundings. After collecting all of them, we will go to the Moon Tower. There, we should be able to further prove my deduction."
"I understand." Ryuga pouted, but in order to clear her suspicion, she still tried to search for footprints in the surroundings and used magic to copy them.
"Let me help." Grey saw this and quickly stepped forward to help Ryuga search.
In the sky.
Unknowingly, dark clouds began to gather and covered the silver plate-like full moon. The faint sound of wind began to whistle in the air, as if a thunderstorm was about to descend.
"Hmm?"
Ermero II suddenly raised his head and looked at the gathering dark clouds in the sky. He frowned. "It's still too late? Those people have already begun to invade. They actually used magic to change the weather. That's a magic that can't be done without dozens of magicians. Hmph, as expected of the Middle Eastern oil kings, they are really rich and overbearing. "
"Yin-yang, I have something to ask of you."
Ermero II turned his head and solemnly requested Ryuga. "I hope you can go and meet the magicians of the Kariasta family. They should be in that direction now and have launched a full-scale invasion of the Twin Towers."
