Chapter 2863: The Child Embracing Gold
Then everyone sent Hungry to investigate according to the fat detective's decryption.
At this point, the fat detective naturally didn't know that everyone was cheating.
Within an hour, hunger returned, back to the separate suite where the fishing detective agency was located.
It whispered to Vincent and the others:
"He is right. There is indeed a shipwreck and a body. Under the body is a golden compass. It is an antique from hundreds of years ago."
"It's gold and an antique, so it's very valuable."
"Yes, valuable antiques are often valuable even back then!"
Number One and the others suddenly became excited.
Wuqing looked down on him and said, "What are you so happy about?"
"Our mission now is to find the murderer, not to discover the wealth."
"Don't worry, now that wealth has appeared, can the murderer be far away?"
Everyone immediately laughed.
Wuqing is right.
The murderer will appear soon.
Then they all watched the video that Wuqing had brought back.
After listening to Hungry's story, everyone decided to go look for the treasure in order to win the game.
They followed hunger and came to the shipwreck.
Then they put on diving equipment and went down, and they found that there was indeed a huge shipwreck there.
Judging from the model of the ship, it is probably an old transport ship from eighty years ago.
However, the deck entrances to the cabins inside the shipwreck are sealed with lids and require special keys to open.
And it's underwater, so it takes a lot of strength to open it.
Because most of the treasures inside are antiques, they must not be blown open with explosives.
They have to find the key.
On the deck of the ship, there were piles of white bones, with one or two sea fish and spicy strips popping out from time to time.
They thought about it and searched the entire outside of the ship carefully.
As a result, they found some words engraved on the deck.
It's just that they don't understand.
"It's all mine."
"We're going to be rich again!"
"Damn betrayal!"
"They betrayed us!"
They had no choice but to return the same way.
Hunger can naturally go in, but even if he goes in, he cannot take out the treasure.
If it is to carry real matter, there must be a real way in and out.
It can pass through walls by itself, but cannot carry ordinary matter through walls.
But it tells everyone: "There is indeed a lot of treasure."
“Precious porcelain is the main thing.”
Everyone had no choice but to leave and return to the cruise ship.
……
And at this time.
The Zoo Detective Agency on the cruise ship opposite sent someone.
The leader was a thin man, very thin, in stark contrast to the fat detective.
One wonders if there is some connection between the two.
For example, the meat of thin people was eaten by fat people.
The thin detective at the zoo looked at them and then said to them:
"You idiots, do you think you can defeat us just by being one step ahead?"
"I'm telling you, you're bound to fail, so you might as well leave early."
"Get out, do you want to die?" "Angry" said angrily again.
"Hehe," the thin detective was obviously much smarter. Two big guys appeared behind him and blocked the "angry" fist.
"It's always like this. I always remind some victims to leave in advance, but they always refuse my kindness for various reasons and end up dying." The thin detective laughed.
At this time, the cruise ship steward said: "What the detective is talking about is that he is the famous prophet detective."
"He could predict who the victim would be, but only five or six out of a hundred people would listen to him, leave the scene of death, and run for their lives."
"It's a pity that others are always unwilling to give up their goals for various reasons."
At this time, Vincent stepped forward and said, "We can cooperate."
"Each of us gets half of the treasure."
The thin detective thought for a moment and said, "Okay then."
Then the Zoo Detective Agency followed them to the shipwreck.
The skinny detective is quite capable.
He actually found the key to the cabin of the sunken ship under a coral reef!
Then the cabin was opened.
As soon as they sneaked in, they immediately discovered that there were many corpses in the aisle of the cabin, which had now turned into skeletons.
These dead bodies were piled one on top of another in the cabin, which was shocking.
"Where did all these bodies come from?"
"It appears to be the crew, they were massacred."
"He must have been drowned!"
And at this time.
Vincent suddenly realized that the so-called "murderer" in the mission probably refers to the entire world.
This world is full of malice, which can turn people into murderers in any event!
Then they began to examine the body carefully.
After some searching, they discovered that a tragic murder had occurred on the ship.
Or a serial murder case.
A murder occurred for the treasure, and the people on the ship were divided into four factions, fighting each other.
In the end, they both died.
Hunger led Vincent and others to the captain's room.
They saw the captain's skeleton, lying on the bed.
There was also a pistol next to it.
Under the body, there was a bottle.
Inside the bottle was a roll of parchment.
It read: "Please help me find the real murderer, and you will get all my treasures."
After seeing this, they realized that another murderer had escaped.
"Strange, isn't the treasure in the cabin?" asked the thin detective puzzled.
Everyone then began to search.
They found a strange safe in the captain's room.
"The real treasure is in here, and its value exceeds anything outside." Hunger told Vincent.
It turned out to be the case.
Vincent then decided to find the murderer.
"But we don't need to look for the murderer. We just need to find a way to open the safe." The thin detective suddenly said.
Everyone nodded.
Vincent didn't say much.
He knew it wouldn't be that simple.
Then everyone dismantled the safe. It was not welded to the ship, so they just needed to remove the screws.
Then they found another piece of parchment at the back of the safe.
There is a story written on it.
"We discovered a treasure island, and we got a lot of gold and silver out of it."
"In order to make it easier to carry, we used gold and silver to buy a lot of treasures to store and escape inspection."
“But on the way back, someone wanted to take it all for himself.”
"There are five leaders on board now."
"One is me, I am called Lion, one is Wolf, one is Griffin, and the other two are Zebra and Antelope."
"The wolf told me this day that griffins cannot be trusted."
"That day, the zebra told me again that antelopes cannot be trusted."
"In fact, among the five of us, there is one person who can be absolutely trusted."
"He always told the whole truth, while the other four never told the truth, they only told half truths."
"We hid many treasures under the island to facilitate customs clearance."
"We set off afterwards."
"On the road, the fighting began."
"The four swindlers killed each other and provoked each other, and finally the ship sank." "I chose to commit suicide. I am going to die."
“This should have ended.”
When everyone saw this, they knew that there were these treasures on the nearby islands.
Suddenly, they realized that the so-called rich man's treasure was actually pirates' treasure.
It’s just that the rich bought the nearby islands and turned them into their own treasures.
And the rich people did not find the real treasure.
That's why I came to find them.
And once they find the treasure, they are buried at the bottom of the ocean just like the pirates.
All ten detective agencies are aware of this fact.
But they all believe that they will have the last laugh.
They sent their own people to search for clues on nearby islands one after another.
They found more and more clues.
These clues are all relatively old.
They wondered when this shipwreck treasure happened.
Treasure Island, sounds like the time of the Discovery.
So is the murderer still alive in this world?
How can they find the murderer if the murderer doesn't live in this world?
"Just pry open the safe." said the thin detective.
Vincent looked at hunger.
Hungry said: "The structure of this safe is very strange. It has a liquid switch."
"There is another way to compare blood. The blood must match before it can be activated."
"This is a somewhat mysterious switch. You can't force it."
"We must find the murderer and get his blood."
"So, the captain actually knows who the murderer is, but he doesn't have the strength to catch him." Vincent understood.
This is the story of "the captain of the past entrusting his descendants to catch the descendants of the murderer and avenge him."
So that's what happened.
After figuring it out, Vincent and others began to search for the murderer.
In fact, the murderer was not hiding very deeply.
They looked through the diaries left by people in the cabin.
They started by reading diaries of different people.
After comparing the diaries left by the captain, the first mate, the chief engineer, the head chef and other middle and high-level figures with each other, everyone discovered who the real murderer was.
That was the old butler who received Vincent and others on the cruise ship!
This guy was actually the one who discovered the treasure from the shipwreck.
They designed to block the old butler in the cabin and asked directly:
"You are the descendant of the real murderer who caused the shipwreck, right?"
The old butler was not afraid at all. He just sat on the sofa and smiled:
"It seems you are quite smart."
"Yes, my name is Joel, and my great-grandfather is the real murderer of that shipwreck."
"They were pirates at the time, and they took a lot of gold."
"My great grandfather knew that these pirates would only use gold to do more evil."
"So he used the gold and antiques to deceive the pirates, stir up internal strife, and kill them all."
"He buried a full twenty tons of gold and antiques."
"20 tons of gold? Although the price of gold is one thousand yuan per gram, that's 200 billion, enough to solve the liquidity problems of two tycoons!" the thin detective said in surprise.
"Haha, yes, that's it."
"I didn't expect you could find me. They didn't know that there was another person alive and had hidden the gold."
Then when everyone was about to ask where the gold was, the old butler died with a smile.
"hateful!"
"It seems that we need to solve puzzles on the cruise ship to find the location of the gold."
"Hurry up and use this old butler's blood to open the safe!"
"That antique is also very valuable!"
...
And at this time.
Wen Rensheng glanced at everyone and nodded slightly.
They did an ok job.
But that’s it.
After all, their ceiling is there.
Wen Rensheng couldn't just give them too many cheats - because in the Civilization Alliance, there would be wise people who could see through his cheats.
And then take targeted preventive and defensive measures.
Therefore, we want to destroy the Civilization Alliance and prevent this fraudulent Void Organization from wreaking havoc.
Wen Rensheng needs to find new helpers.
As for asking him to take action personally, that is unlikely.
He had personally taken part in the process before, and he still does it personally now, so hadn't all the time in between been wasted?
Thinking of this, he turned his gaze back to the real world where he originally lived.
He needs a time traveler with the destiny of a protagonist to destroy this great alliance of civilizations.
Both parties take what they need.
He would give the other party a chance to complete what he wanted to do.
Soon his sight was projected onto a complex that was traveling through the protagonist.
……
"Why, Xiaomei? Why did you betray me?" Zhang Ban looked angrily at the man and woman hugging each other.
"Hmph, you talk about working hard and making money every day, but you never make much. Do I have to continue renting with you?" the woman laughed.
"Haha, go to hell, brother. If you reincarnate into another world, maybe you can turn things around." The man added fuel to the fire.
"Damn it, I want to..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Ban felt a black screen in front of his eyes.
[No, I don't want to travel through time. At least I have to kill these two bastards first!]
[If you don't kill him and travel through time, you will be frustrated for the rest of your life. Even if you become a saint, you will have a frustrating past! ]
The next moment, the three of them put it on together.
Zhang Ban opened his eyes.
All I saw before me was a bloody scene.
"what!"
Xiaomei's screams directly pierced the eardrums of both of them.
There were corpses everywhere.
There was also a man holding a sword and wiping it.
After seeing the three people, he didn't say much. He stabbed them to death with a sword each.
For some reason, Zhang Ban felt much more comfortable.
next moment.
He heard a hint:
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully binding to the magic sword system. ]
【You will become a magic sword. 】
Oh, I've seen this episode.
Keep killing the sword master and keep evolving yourself until you finally become the highest divine weapon!
Zhang Ban suddenly became excited.
Sure enough, the next moment, he became the sword in the murderer's hand.
[Skill 1: Bloodthirst (Returns power to the sword master). ]
[Skill 2: Evolution (accumulate power for self-evolution). ]
With just these two functions, there aren't as many skills as in the novel.
But he is very content.
At least the guy who cheated on me is dead.
This satisfied him.
He then bound the murderer.
Although he didn't have skills like Doom, he knew that this was enough.
Sooner or later the murderer will be killed.
Because possessing his magic sword is like a child carrying gold in a busy city.
