Weber was puzzled when he saw that Marne's hands were empty.
After being gone for so long, I came back to find nothing?
"You'll see when the time comes. For now, let's go check on those three unlucky guys."
Marx and Eng didn't offer much explanation; they simply said a few words and then left the office first.
Seeing this, Weber had no doubts and quickly followed.
He wanted to see what brilliant tricks Marx and Engels had up their sleeves.
The two arrived at the infirmary, where the three unfortunate souls whose memories had been erased were lying.
舟.
Chapter 208 Roman and Marne: By My Side?
It's unclear whether the person behind it used some kind of physical memory erasure technique on these three unfortunate guys, but in any case, these three are now each under the care of an Indian, hiding in their hospital beds with blank expressions.
When Marne and Weber saw this, their expressions both turned strange.
"What's going on with them? Weren't they said they weren't injured?"
Marne glanced at Roman, who was about to come over and say hello.
Upon seeing this, Roman skipped the greeting and scratched his head, saying, "It's nothing serious, but there's still a bit of an injury."
"The three of them were hit on the back of the head with a heavy object. All three suffered mild concussions and fainted on the spot."
"The person who did this must be a master, like a professionally trained assassin from childhood. Otherwise, an ordinary person couldn't be so precise. After all, people aren't machines."
Webber nodded and looked at Marne: "It's your turn to play. I'm not sure what to do right now."
Seeing this, Ma En said nothing more, looked at the three of them, and activated the [Omniscient and Omnipotent Star].
The next thing he saw was a stream of information: detailed information about the three people.
From their backgrounds, upbringing, daily habits, and personalities, everything was listed out.
Mar and Eng quickly flipped through the documents, ignoring the unnecessary information at the beginning and focusing on yesterday's events.
Upon seeing this, Ma En's expression turned strange.
He quickly felt relieved, but then his face showed obvious pain.
Seeing the change in Marne's expression, Weber quickly asked, "What's wrong? Did you notice something wrong?"
“I have a question.” En nodded, then said seriously, “Trimmau, you should recognize that name, right?”
"What?!" Bo was startled and froze for a moment.
He immediately realized what she meant and quickly asked, "What do you mean? Are you saying they were...?"
He didn't say the rest, but Ma'en nodded: "They were injured by Trimmau."
Weber fell silent; he hadn't expected things to turn out this way.
Roman, standing nearby, couldn't help but ask curiously, "Um, what exactly is this Trimmau you're talking about?"
Weber covered his face and turned his head away, unwilling to explain.
Roman then looked at Marne, his eyes filled with curiosity.
Marn said helplessly, "Trimmau is a powerful ceremonial garment passed down by the El-Melloi family. It is a virtual personality given to the Moon Spirit Essence. With its addition, the Moon Spirit Essence becomes an automaton."
Roman nodded: "I see. That makes sense. Automata are pretty much robots, so they can definitely make such precise, machine-like attacks."
As he said this, he suddenly realized something and looked at Waver with surprise: "The El-Melloi family's inherited formal attire?! Isn't that..."
The person in front of me is none other than El-Melloi II!
Good heavens! He was right next to me?!
Thinking of this, Roman quickly took a few steps back, as if afraid that Weber would suddenly attack and kill him to silence him.
Seeing that the other party must have misunderstood something, Weber quickly waved his hand to clarify, "It's not what you think. The Moon Spirit Essence Liquid is not in my hands. I didn't make it. Otherwise, why would I get involved in helping with the investigation? Would I arrest myself?"
Upon hearing this, Roman hesitated slightly, but still said with some doubt, "It's not impossible, is it? Maybe this is a way you're trying to clear yourself of suspicion?"
"You! You son of a bitch!" Bo was so angry on the spot, he felt so wronged.
Seeing this, Ma En, who was watching the show from the sidelines, was immediately amused, and the depression he felt from learning the truth gradually dissipated.
Hmph, serves you right for always suspecting others for no reason. Now you know what it feels like to be suspected, don't you?!
Upon seeing Marne's expression, Weber immediately understood that Marne had deliberately spoken so vaguely.
However, he couldn't reveal this to outsiders for the time being. He couldn't let outsiders know that he was in cahoots with Ma En and Cheng Lin, just in case.
So, they had no choice but to swallow their pride and bear it.
Fortunately, Marne still had some conscience. After slightly disgusting Weber, he quickly tried to salvage the situation, asking, "Since you say the ceremonial dress isn't in your possession, then tell me where it is now?"
As he spoke, Mar and Eng's face contorted with embarrassment.
He naturally knew who had the Moon Spirit Essence Liquid.
It's Reines, the current head of the El-Melloi family, that annoying little devil!
Well, I was just wondering how the person behind this could react so quickly. Turns out, after spending most of yesterday investigating the murderer, the real culprit was right beside them all along!
It's likely that Reines orchestrated the escape of these three unfortunate souls while he wasn't paying attention.
The goal was to find an excuse to escape his surveillance and get rid of these three unlucky guys before he caught them, so as to clear himself of suspicion.
It has to be said, this is a truly frustrating truth.
As for Reines spreading such rumors, it was probably just a prank on him, not intentionally targeting Olga Marie, but rather Marne.
Weber, unaware of what Marne was thinking, saw an opportunity to back down and explained without hesitation, "It's Reines. She is the current head of the El-Melloi family, and she has always held the Moon Spirit Essence Liquid."
As he said this, Weber's expression became somewhat strange.
He roughly guessed what was going on, and it felt absolutely outrageous!
He was busy investigating over there, while all the other teammates were just doing their own thing...
Good heavens! You don't even handle fish like that!
They're making him do all the work by himself; can't we even have fun together anymore?!
"Is that really true?" Man was still somewhat skeptical, so he looked at Ma En.
Marne nodded, while giving Roman a disdainful look.
How come I never noticed before that this guy is such a coward?
Yesterday, when he was surrounded by onlookers, he ran away immediately. Now, if there is any danger, he will also hide away immediately.
Roman then walked back awkwardly, completely ignoring Marn's gaze.
"So what do we do now? Should we arrest Miss Reines?"
Upon hearing this, Weber looked at Marne.
Capture Reines?
To be honest, he was a little guilty, having developed psychological trauma from being exploited for so many years.
Therefore, this task can only be handed over to someone else.
As for the choice of person, it was naturally one of the causes of this incident: Maren. There was no one else but him.
Chapter 209 The Ruthless Reines: Time is running out, let's begin!
Maren didn't hesitate and waved his hand, saying, "Let's go, let's arrest them!"
After saying that, he took the lead and walked out of the infirmary.
Seeing this, Webber quickly followed, knowing that if Reines confessed, he would definitely have to plead for her.
As for Roman, he hadn't caught up yet; his work wasn't finished.
In Chaldea's central control room, Marne and Weber confronted Leyne, who was observing Rafe's work.
Before she could react, Ma En pulled out a pair of handcuffs from somewhere and handcuffed her.
Reines's expression changed, but she didn't resist. She just looked at the rose gold handcuffs on her hands, and her eyes twitched. She didn't know how to react.
"What's going on? Weren't you supposed to be investigating? Why are you arresting Miss Reines?"
Seeing the commotion, Rafe quickly came over, blocking the view of the others, and asked in a low voice.
This matter cannot be known by too many people, otherwise, there will be widespread panic within Chaldea.
The inspector has been arrested!
This is such big news! It's going to cause a huge uproar if it gets out.
"Professor Rafe, we're arresting criminals."
Weber gave a somewhat pained explanation.
Rafe then realized that Reines was the murderer!
"It's not convenient to talk here, let's go to the director's office to talk."
Seeing that Reines didn't refute it, he figured it must be true. Although he was puzzled as to why she did it, Rafe put aside his work and, together with Marn and the other man, took Reines to the director's office to find Olga Marie.
Olga Marie was also shocked when she learned that Reines was the murderer.
"Why are you doing this?"
This is the biggest question she and Rafe have.
"I just wanted to joke with Maren, I didn't expect things to turn out like this."
Reines said with a helpless expression.
Actually, she already regretted it yesterday when she learned that Marne might be fired because of this.
However, after hearing that Maren still had a way to deal with it, he took a sliver of hope and that's why he took action against those three "tools".
She never expected that even so, she would still be caught in the end.
Thinking about this, she asked Ma En with some curiosity, "How did you find out it was me?"
