It’s actually a purple task.
The female player looked at Su Changxing with surprise, not expecting to suddenly receive a seemingly good purple task.
And her current task was just a white one, with only a slightly richer experience reward.
"Accept, of course, I’ll accept it... My na is Lu ngyao, nice to et you."
Lu ngyao extended a hand and said.
Su Changxing shook her hand and said, "I’m Klein, from Chaixi Town."
Lu ngyao was taken aback, not quite sure where this so-called Chaixi Town was, as she was just a complete newbie who hadn’t even left the main city.
After thinking for a mont, she said, "What information do you need? I might not know it."
Su Changxing gave a aningful smile and said lightly, "No rush, I’ll help you complete the task first."
At this mont, Lu ngyao could only sigh at how intelligent the NPCs in this ga were, almost like real people and probably smarter than so.
"So what do we need to do now?" Lu ngyao asked again, as if her brain stopped working when she encountered such situations.
Su Changxing imdiately said, "Let’s go up and see if they found anything?"
A few police officers were still up there doing the finishing work.
This case was one assigned to Lu ngyao by the police station, and they were only responsible for tidying up the scene.
Lu ngyao blinked and said, "It seems they haven’t found anything, they just said the person died, so I ca over."
"You know, so police officers are only a bit brighter than the lights on the wall." Su Changxing shrugged and joked.
They walked into Old Mrs. Luo Wen’s house and happened to see a police officer slipping a money pouch into his pocket.
Both Su Changxing and Lu ngyao were stunned, encountering such a situation so easily; it seed these officers had done this sort of thing more than once.
They seed to be no different from those "mice" below, rushing to feast whenever there’s a piece of rotting at.
Everyone could beco soone else’s fodder.
This might not be anything bad; perhaps it’s just how this world’s rules work.
But not everyone can tolerate it.
"What are you doing?" Lu ngyao suddenly scolded, with a tone of firmness that even Su Changxing didn’t expect.
The police officer was clearly startled, shuddered, and after seeing Su Changxing and Lu ngyao, quickly regained his composure and said, "This is evidence, I’ll take it back to the station later."
"You’re obviously trying to take the money..." Lu ngyang said indignantly.
Before she could finish, Su Changxing gestured to stop her, smiled, and said, "This clue should help us solve the case; just leave it here, no need to take it back. Thanks for cooperating."
The officer looked at Su Changxing and asked, "Who are you?"
Su Changxing was wearing casual clothes and a straw hat, neither looking like a detective nor a policeman.
"? I’m his assistant." Su Changxing said confidently, "Is there anything else? This is a very important clue."
The officer put the money pouch on the table and said firmly, "I assure you, this is it, there’s nothing else, this is my bottom line. It seems most of Luo Wen’s money has been taken by the culprit."
Then, Su Changxing went to ask so people living nearby.
"In the morning, Mrs. Luo Wen ca up with a man in a gray coat. I couldn’t see what he looked like, but his accent was a bit strange," the store owner at the entrance pondered and said.
Immigrants?
Su Changxing knew that the city had specific slums for immigrants, providing a place to live, which was considered a humane act.
But the identities of these immigrants were lower than ordinary residents, akin to undocunted individuals, and even if they died, probably no one would care.
"Let’s go have a look."
Su Changxing observed the traces in the room and roughly estimated the killer’s physique and physical condition.
The footprints on the floor were uneven; the killer seed to have a la leg.
"Where are we going?" Lu ngyao asked again.
Su Changxing wasn’t surprised by her response, as her brain had already stopped, with only water inside. He said calmly:
"We’re going to the slum; the killer should be there.
Lu ngyao asked, surprised: "How do you know?"
Su Changxing got into the carriage and explained unhurriedly:
"He probably isn’t a local, needs money, isn’t skilled at killing, and was very panicked at the ti, likely driven to desperation, and is probably an immigrant living in the slum."
Lu ngyao couldn’t help but exclaim, "You’re so smart!"
Su Changxing turned to look at her and said lightly, "Being praised by you for being smart doesn’t make happy."
"Wha...what do you an?"
Lu ngyao imdiately detected the sarcasm in Su Changxing’s words but wasn’t angry, because the other party was indeed very smart. By comparison, she was a fool.
She’s a girl who dares to face reality.
"Nothing."
Thinking that the other party was half his employer, Su Changxing didn’t say anything further, maintaining professional conduct is important.
Instantly, a professional smile appeared on his face, like that of a real estate salesperson, polite yet elegant.
The situation here was awful, far inferior to Chaixi Town.
The faces of so people walking on the street were sallow, and their figures were thin.
They were enduring hunger.
Su Changxing led Lu ngyao straight inwards, observing the surroundings, quickly filtering people based on characteristics.
Finding the killer wasn’t difficult for him, even if he used the most stupid thod, it just required a little more ti.
"They are so pitiful." Lu ngyao sighed, watching the children running barefoot on the streets not far away.
You’re a player, have a player’s awareness... Su Changxing couldn’t help but think mockingly, saying, not too heavily:
"Then what? You go help them, and you probably don’t have that ability either. In such a big slum, even if there aren’t a hundred thousand people, there are tens of thousands. Why don’t you first beco part of the nobility, then think of a way."
These players could indeed change the world, but corresponding power was needed.
As it turned out, they weren’t as good as the natives of this world, neither in terms of power nor influence.
Listening to Su Changxing’s words, Lu ngyao didn’t argue, she wasn’t stupid, even if her brain didn’t work much, she understood so things well.
After all, she also lived in a society with advanced information.
It was precisely this NPC called Klein who gave her a particularly bizarre feeling, sowhat off-kilter, like a player.
But his actions and manner of speaking matched this world.
Without any reason, that was her intuitive feeling.
"Did you know that the head of the Knight’s Guild is a noble lord?" Su Changxing added seemingly casually.
After pondering for a while, Lu ngyao said, "I know, it was supported singlehandedly by the Grand Duke, considered half the City Lord here."
