Chapter 1065 The King's Mission
A herald in gorgeous costume is announcing the king's order.
The general meaning is that strange cases have occurred in the prison and a large number of prisoners have died. The king hopes that capable people can help solve the case. His Majesty the King will reward him generously, and the solver can choose an item from the king's treasure house as a reward.
"The king's treasury is filled with treasures collected from all over the world. I have always wanted to go in and take a look, but unfortunately I have never had the chance." Farah said regretfully after hearing this.
"Isn't this an opportunity?" Zhang Tuohai said with a smile.
Then he raised his hands and said loudly: "Solve the case, right? I'm good at it."
"Are you really sure? This is not a joke. If you deceive the king, you will be punished." Farah said, holding Zhang Tuohai's hand.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Zhang Tuohai patted Farah's shoulder and said.
When he was bored in the spiritual space, he finished watching all the works of Conan, and also watched a series of detective stories such as Agatha, Conan Doyle, Kindaichi, etc. He became very familiar with solving cases, at least, he could pretend to be quite good at on-site investigation.
Of course, Zhang Tuohai’s greatest confidence lies in the fact that this is a game task. As long as it is a game task, there is a solution. There is no unfinished task in the game.
If there is, just kill the person who commissioned the task and cancel the task.
The messenger became excited immediately when he saw Zhang Tuohai raised his hand.
He had already run to more than a dozen places this morning and his voice was almost hoarse, but still no one was willing to take on the task.
Most of the people in the port area are violent and aggressive. It's okay to let them fight and kill, but forget about solving the case.
Especially since it is the king's mission, as long as one's mind is clear, he will not interfere recklessly.
Just when the herald was afraid of returning empty-handed and being punished by the king, Zhang Tuohai appeared.
The excited herald did not even bother to verify their identities and rushed back to the palace with Zhang Tuohai and Farah.
The king received them in the palace.
"You guys can solve the case?"
' asked the king.
"It's meaningless to say it here. Whether the case can be solved or not needs to be determined at the scene."
Zhang Tuohai said.
The king thought about it and agreed.
"Take them there."
A palace steward led them into the harem, then opened a side door and walked down a winding staircase to the underground room.
"The prison is underground in the royal palace?" Zhang Tuohai asked in surprise.
He really couldn't figure out which crippled designer came up with this layout.
There is no need to worry about prisoners escaping from prison and rushing directly into the harem.
"In fact, this is not the kingdom's prison, but a private prison where the king holds some of his personal slaves." The old butler was reluctant to say more, and it was obvious that there was some hidden secret.
"Oh, I see." Zhang Tuohai and Farah looked at each other, feeling that there might be some important clues hidden here.
After walking up dozens of steps, the group arrived underground. It was a magnificently decorated underground palace filled with exquisite paintings, intricately patterned carpets and silver candlesticks, which illuminated the place brightly.
However, the ground here was littered with broken corpses and the walls were stained with blood.
Zhang Tuohai walked back and forth at the scene. He found a piece of lace and a piece of tattered cloth at the scene. He grabbed them in his hands and had a rough idea of what was going on. At the same time, he observed three seconds of silence for His Majesty the King.
This king is so miserable. He doesn't even know that his head is covered with prairie. The saddest thing is that the one who cheated on him was not a prince or a minister, nor a wealthy businessman, but a slave imprisoned in his private prison.
Why did he know so much? Because he was the one who designed this case.
At the beginning, he was a little obsessed with Blood and Sand, and then he suddenly came up with the idea of designing such a case.
At that time, he also left a few little Easter eggs in the case.
He just took a walk around the underground palace and found those Easter eggs.
With the help of these Easter eggs, he recalled the bloody case he had designed.
It is much easier to infer the evidence once you know the result, and Zhang Tuohai easily found enough evidence.
This case is not complicated. The difficulty lies in how to solve the case and hide the fact that she is being cheated on from the king.
Otherwise, not only will you not get the reward, you might even be killed by the king to silence him.
"If I'm not mistaken, someone was injured inside the palace. I picked up this." Zhang Tuohai handed a piece of lace fabric to the old butler.
This kind of lace is extremely precious and rare in Alexandria. Only people in the royal palace can afford it.
"Yes, the new queen has unfortunately passed away, which is why His Majesty is so anxious to solve the case."
The old butler said.
"I have almost solved the case. A slave secretly opened the door of the prison and ran into the queen who was enjoying the cool air here on his way to escape. The queen saw the slave and wanted to stop him and make him repent. As a result, the slave was contaminated and mutated into a monster. He brutally dismembered the queen, and the slave also exploded and died due to the contamination."
"If you don't believe me, you can find traces of contamination in the blood."
“In fact, he exploded and died while stealing the sunshine, and both of them were blown into pieces.” Zhang Tuohai said silently in his heart.
However, such words must never be said, otherwise, he would be the next one to be thrown into jail.
"So that's how it is. Do you have any other evidence?" asked the old butler.
"This piece of clothing should be the slave's clothing. As for more direct evidence, we can go to the prison to have a look."
Zhang Tuohai said.
"This way."
The old butler brought Zhang Tuohai and Farah to the corner, where there was an iron door. However, several steel bars had been bent, revealing a large hole. Two guards were guarding it.
"These two guards are newly transferred. There were no guards here before." said the old butler.
"The steel bars were bent. This is not something a normal person can do. Those slaves must have been contaminated by demons and turned into monsters that only know how to kill."
Zhang Tuohai said this and went in.
The group walked down the stairs and below was the king's private prison. The second underground floor was even colder than the first underground floor, so they needed to wear long-sleeved clothes here.
There is no decoration here, only stone walls, but the walls are dotted with various fragments of flesh and blood.
There were broken bones all over the ground , and not even a complete bone could be found.
The group came to the bottom of the prison, which was like a slaughterhouse, with body parts and debris everywhere.
In the shadow of the prison there is a black portal.
