Wizard: This witcher is not doing his job

Chapter 67 Case follow-up
That evening, after dealing with the follow-up of all the werewolf incidents, Deacon Ozick found Wayne who was practicing swordsmanship by the small river with some physical and mental exhaustion.

He stood aside and watched the wolf-like, ferocious, fast, and continuous swordplay of the demon hunter before leaning forward to salute respectfully, and said:

"Master Wayne, those injured workers have been sent to the hospital for treatment. According to the doctor's diagnosis, they should all be traumatic, not life-threatening."

"The bodies of the two sacrificed workers were also taken home by their families."

"As for the child you brought back, we also sent someone to find his aunt's house, and someone is already taking care of him."

Having said that, he hesitated for a second, looked up at Wayne's face, and said hesitantly:

"It's just that the workers have some opinions about burying the werewolf's body."

"They think that the best way to deal with such a monster is to burn the werewolf's body."

Hearing this, Wayne put away the steel sword, looked back at Deacon Ozick, looked at this southerner, with a serious expression and a serious tone, and said with a gesture of an expert fooling a layman:
"Mr. Ozick, the workers have little knowledge, so they don't know that werewolves are very dangerous monsters. There is a terrible curse on them. Even if their bodies are burned, these monsters will turn into evil spirits and continue to endanger the safety of the workers."

"And the reason why I want to bury him next to my wife and ask you to help me find the real culprit is because only in this way can the hatred of that monster be eliminated and he can rest in peace."

Having said that, Wayne paused, and said in a helpless tone:

"People living in towns are too far away to be in any danger, but we lumberyards, the workers here, must stay near this forest."

"You don't want to have another evil spirit around you, who can be invisible, who can curse, who is not afraid of swords, and who always wants to murder the lives of living people all the time."

Listening to Wayne's narration, Ozick couldn't help turning pale with fright. He had seen the corpse of the werewolf with his own eyes. It had a strong body over [-] meters, huge claws that were as sharp as a blade, and that terrifying wolf-shaped head full of sharp teeth and full of blood.

Seeing such a terrifying monster, it was hard for the southerner to imagine how many people would have to be killed or injured in the face of such a monster without the help of the master demon hunter in front of him to eliminate it.

Thinking of the evil spirits that might appear in the future, Ozick shuddered, his attitude became more anxious, and he said seriously:
"I see, Master Wayne, I will step up and urge the managers of the nearby logging factories to ask them to give a list of loggers who may have appeared near the hunter's lodge three days ago based on the appearance and characteristics you gave."

"At that time, I will invite you to go and screen."

Wayne nodded, looking at the back of the deacon leaving, thinking in his heart that although he told some lies, white lies can sometimes bring about a more perfect ending, and justice can also be done because of this.

Sure enough, driven by the rumors of evil spirits, the bosses of the logging factories all became quite cooperative, and within a few days, they provided Wayne with a fairly accurate list.

And after getting rid of the werewolves, his work became quite leisurely during the few days he was on duty at the lumberyard.

Except for some blind ghosts and Andergley worms with low intelligence, who would appear around the lumber camp from time to time, there were no other monsters attacking this large number of lumber camps.

Taking advantage of this free time, Wayne will receive a normal-level on-duty task from Deacon Ozick every day, complete it like going to work, and get rewards.

On weekdays, he practiced riding in the open space, collected herbs in the forest, brewed witcher potions, and took out the bow and arrow that he hadn't practiced for a long time by the way, and his life was quite pleasant.

The expert-level werewolf mission provided him with a total of [-] experience points and an expert-level treasure chest, which successfully raised his level of demon hunter from level five to level six.

Not only has his physical fitness been improved slightly, but he has also gained a system-rewarded ability point.

Wayne (16 years old)
Occupation: Witcher
Level: Level 6 (23/600)

Ability value: 6 points

Attributes: Strength 18, Dexterity 23, Constitution 20, Spirit 23.

Skills: Swordsmanship LV5, Fayin LV8, Gene Mutation LV4, Gwent LV4.

Special bloodline: Ancient blood (weak, unawakened) requires ten ability points to activate.

Subsidiary skills: Archery LV2, Cooking LV5, Planting LV3, Alchemy LV3, Riding LV3.

At present, apart from culinary skills that have reached level five and have not yet selected skills and specialties, such as the mutation level improved by drinking medicine, and the Gwent card level improved by playing cards, have reached the peak of level four.

In the future, as long as he puts some effort into these two skills, there is a high probability that he will break through to level five within a month, thus gaining the opportunity to select skill specialties.

The only pity is that ability points are too precious. Apart from the little ability points that can be provided by each upgrade, this kind of power can only be obtained by absorbing magic power nodes from all over the world.

And absorbing the magic node will inevitably cause damage to the space, forming a tiny space crack, which makes Wayne a little entangled, thinking that he must choose the target carefully.

This afternoon, it was Wayne's fifth day on duty at the lumberyard.

Deacon Ozick found him with a serious face, and said:
"Master Wayne, from the seven lumber camps near the werewolf hut, all the lumberjacks who may have appeared near the hut when the incident happened, and who match the appearance characteristics you provided have gathered together. A total of 53 people are waiting for your question."

"Do you have time now?"

When Wayne heard this, he raised his eyebrows in surprise. He didn't expect Deacon Ozick and the bosses of the logging factory to be so efficient.

It seems that the rumors of the evil spirits have made those businessmen who make money by logging fear, and they are afraid. In order not to hinder making money, they will work hard on this aspect.

He nodded to Ozick and asked:
"Where are they now? In one of those logging camps?"

Ozick shook his head and said:
"In order to solve this matter as soon as possible, those businessmen have sent these loggers to our logging factory, and they are now guarded in our dormitory."

Faced with such a thoughtful arrangement, Wayne said to Deacon Ozick with appreciation:

"Thanks for your hard work, Mr. Ozick. It is because of your help that things can go so smoothly."

"Next time, when I see Mr. Levardon, I will tell him the truth."

"Your efforts will definitely be praised by him."

Ozick looked at Wayne with some joy, and said with a smile:

"Thank you, Master Wayne, this is the job I should be doing."

After the two exchanged a few words, Wayne and Ozick came to the dormitory of the logging camp.

Sure enough, just as Ozick said, more than 50 loggers with different expressions were guarded in more than a dozen dormitories. They were either whispering, silent, or nervous.

Obviously, he already knew the purpose of being gathered here.

Wayne didn't start questioning these loggers right away, but quietly hid outside the dormitory, observing these loggers one by one through his keen observation.

And some people who showed guilt, fear, anger or other particularly strong emotions were marked.

It wasn't until half an hour later, when he had finished observing, that he turned his head to Deacon Ozick who had been by his side all the time, and said:

"Deacon Ozick, please arrange a separate room for me. I want to conduct a separate questioning of these loggers."

Ozke cooperated quite well, and immediately arranged a spacious room, and let some lumberjack guards control the entire site, let the lumberjacks enter this room one by one, accept Wayne's questioning, and prevent them from causing any disturbance.

In fact, Wayne didn't know what interrogation was. When the lumberjacks were placed opposite him, he could only watch it through the TV series in his previous life. The police asked the prisoners about their experience and asked some questions such as alibi.

Of course, as a demon hunter with the ability to cast spells, he doesn't need any special interrogation skills.

When he confronts those who have been marked by him and show guilt, anger, fear or other particularly strong emotions, Wayne will cast the Axii sign, directly hypnotize them, and ask him what he wants to know.

Things went smoothly. The biggest difficulty in this matter is not the interrogation of these loggers, but how to narrow down the criminals from hundreds or thousands of loggers in all logging camps to dozens of people who can be interrogated individually.

When the three prisoners were sent by their boss to the dormitory of the lumber camp in Revarden, their fate was already doomed.

All that is needed is the length of the interrogation.

About two hours later, before it was evening, Wayne, who cast spells more than a dozen times in a row, resisted the exhaustion in his body, and finally managed to capture the three prisoners through the hypnosis of the Axii Seal, and recorded their crimes in detail.

Even if these criminals forcibly quibble after waking up, facing the detailed criminal records recorded in black and white, these villains, who are ordinary people, finally succumbed to the iron evidence and pleaded guilty.

But Deacon Ozick immediately understood, and with the help of several guards, sent the three criminals who were full of crimes and the criminal records they signed to the prison in Vizima City.

Not surprisingly, what awaited them was the fate of being hanged on the execution ground.
