Doctor Player Chapter 429
But Raymond shook his head and put off that possibility for now.
“Certainly the saint of brilliance did that. Still, the saint of brilliance is the most respected saint in the empire.”
The saint of brilliance was a saint who did so many good deeds.
It wasn’t called the greatest saint in the empire for nothing.
It was hard to imagine that someone like that could have done such a terrible thing.
‘Of course, I think it was a good deed done for political reasons rather than a good deed done with a pure heart from what I’ve actually met, but it’s unlikely that such a reputed saint would have committed such a terrible thing.’
Raymond thought so because it was a fact completely unknown to the outside world that the saint of brilliance actually had a terrible personality.
‘Then, it’s most likely that the Tower of Healing committed it.’
Raymond estimated from the information he had that the Tower of Healing was most likely behind it.
If the healing tower was the culprit, they had to find the culprit somehow and reveal it.
‘Because I have to release the victim’s resentment.’
Raymond clenched his fists tightly.
He was a greedy man, but he was a greedy man who kept the line.
Sacrificing an innocent person for one’s own greed would have crossed that line far.
If possible, we had to find the culprit and release the injustice of the victims.
‘And if it turns out that this is what the Tower of Healing did, it’s a big benefit to me too.’
A snobbish idea, but the Tower of Healing was his competitor.
If this was really the work of the Tower of Healing, it could deal a very fatal blow.
With that in mind, Raymond asked Mien.
“Mien, can you possibly trace the culprit?”
Previously, Mian also made a number of outstanding contributions in several criminal cases.
However, Mien showed a reaction that he was not confident this time.
[I don’t think it will be easy. There is a way to track the smell left by the culprit, but in the slums, there are too many smells mixed with it, so it is difficult to track it with my skills.]
“Ah….”
Raymond made a sad face.
‘Once you find it, it won’t be difficult to prove your guilt.’
It was thanks to DNA identification technology.
The perpetrator infiltrated the victim’s residence and administered poison.
The person who had undergone professional infiltration training secretly crossed over to the victims’ quarters and left traces.
It was hair.
If the criminal was caught, the DNA in his hair could be compared to prove his guilt.
‘The problem is that I can’t catch the culprit. Is there any way?’
But there was no clear way to come to mind.
I wasn’t too clueless.
While thinking about it, Raymond remembered what Mien had said.
‘You can track the culprit by the smell he left behind. Couldn’t you maximize your sense of smell? So that we can track the culprit even when the smells are mixed.’
But he soon shook his head.
‘…It’s impossible. I’m not even an asshole How to track by smell.’
That’s what I was thinking.
Raymond suddenly thought of a method.
‘for a moment. there is. How to become like a dog!’
Be like a dog.
…So, it’s not a story with a swearing meaning.
Raymond hurriedly opened the market window.
The list of available skills for purchase came to mind.
Among them, when I went to the auxiliary skills section, there was this skill.
[Possession of an emergency rescue dog.]
…It was a skill that allowed him to become like a dog.
* * *
The exact content of the skill was like this.
[Possession of Emergency Rescue Dog]
Category: Auxiliary Skill
Rating: Rare
Proficiency: D
– Possess the ability of an emergency rescue dog to track down a missing patient!
– Have an excellent sense of smell!
Like an emergency rescue dog, it was a skill that could track opponents by scent.
Raymond immediately purchased the skill and tried it.
‘…Ouch.’
It really has a sense of smell beyond human limits!
But I was soon disappointed.
Although they have a sense of smell comparable to that of emergency rescue dogs, it is not enough to track criminals with only the smell left behind.
In fact, it was natural.
Even the best emergency rescue dogs can’t track someone by scent in this situation.
‘no. Let’s raise the skill level.’
Since it was a rare skill, there were not many required skill points.
Raymond raised his skill to A-rank at once.
Then the effect changed dramatically.
[Skill evolves with skill level increase!]
[‘Possession of Emergency Rescue Dog’ skill has evolved into ‘Hell’s Emergency Rescue Dog Cerberus’ skill!]
[Hell’s Emergency Rescue Dog Cerberus]
Classification: Auxiliary Skill
Rating: Unique
Proficiency: A
-Hell The guard dog Cerberus has three noses! Of course, the sense of smell is also superior!
– Cerberus’ legendary sense of smell can be used as an emergency rescue dog!
Raymond made a surprised face.
‘Isn’t Cerberus a legendary dog? But you also have a good sense of smell?’
Come to think of it, since I have 3 faces like the description of the skill, I also have 3 noses, so it seemed like my sense of smell would be excellent.
‘…It’s a strange logic, but anyway.’
If you use this skill, you should be able to chase down criminals enough!
I was going to use the skill with that mindset, but suddenly something unexpected happened.
“Your Highness, someone has come to visit.”
“who?”
“I am one of the people of the slums…They say they have something to tell you.”
Raymond tilted his head.
And when I saw the person who came, it was a woman dressed in shabby clothes.
“What are you here for? Are you here because you are sick?”
Raymond spoke kindly, as always.
But for some reason, upon hearing Raymond’s kind voice, the woman burst into tears.
‘Why do you cry as soon as you see me?’
Raymond was taken aback.
But then something even more embarrassing happened.
The woman suddenly knelt in front of Raymond and shouted:
“Please save my daughter. majesty!”
“…yes?”
“My daughter went missing a few days ago. It is clear that the ‘devil’ took it. It is raining earnestly, so please find my daughter from the ‘devil’!”
It was an unexpected request.
* * *
‘A devil?’
Raymond made a puzzled face.
I couldn’t understand what the woman was saying.
At that time, Elmud said ah and explained if he had heard anything.
“It is said that cases of unknown whereabouts often occurred in the slums from before. It is said that the poor people are afraid because they do not know who did it, thinking it is the work of the ‘devil’.
“There was something like that in the slums of Hwangdo? But why are there rumors out there?”
Raymond was puzzled, but soon realized why.
‘Because it’s poor. No one would have cared.’
Of course, if this was the capital of another country, repeated disappearances would have spread rumors even in the slums.
But this was the ecliptic.
The best and most populous city in the empire.
The scale of the slums was also incomparable to other places.
In particular, there were many displaced people who lost their hometowns for various reasons and gathered in the ecliptic, so the ratio of the poor to the population was very high.
Health is definitely the worst.
‘Originally, it’s a place where people get injured and die for all sorts of reasons, so no one would have cared if a few people went missing.’
Raymond bit his lip.
‘Anyway, it can’t really be the work of the ‘devil’. It must have been periodically kidnapped by someone taking advantage of an opening in the slums.’
Unfortunately, Raymond knew that among humans there are many more terrible strains than demons.
I don’t know why they did this, but it must have been kidnapped for a bad purpose.
This was especially true considering that the missing were mostly boys and girls in their late teens.
‘Abduction for that purpose?’
Raymond clenched his fists as a terrifying speculation came to him.
‘no. Not sure yet. The priority is to find the missing child first.’
“When did your daughter go missing?”
“…It has been about 5 5 days.”
5 days.
Raymond’s face hardened.
It’s been too long.
If the abduction was correct for the reason he guessed, there was little chance that the woman’s daughter would be safe.
“Why so late….”
But again he closed his mouth.
He came so late because he thought no one would help.
In fact, there were few people who would pay attention to and help the poor go missing.
‘Damn it.’
Raymond swallowed a curse in his stomach.
No matter how snobbish he was, this angered him.
“I will look for it right away.”
Did heaven help?
He had learned a skill that was just right for the current situation.
It was the ‘Hell’s Emergency Rescue Dog’ skill.
“Can you see the items your daughter used? It’s urgent.”
The woman immediately followed Raymond’s words and brought a shabby garment with a hole in it.
It looked like the clothes a woman’s daughter used to wear.
Now I had to find my daughter through the smell on this dress.
‘…But is this possible?’
Raymond was worried when he tried to use the skill.
I wondered if it was physically possible to track an opponent by scent.
But there was no other sharp way.
Any other method will take a very long time until the woman’s daughter is found. Maybe you won’t find it forever.
Raymond used the skill hoping that it would work.
‘Use Hell’s Emergency Rescue Dog!’
Then an amazing thing happened.
message came to mind.
[Use Cerberus’ sense of smell!]
[Cerberus is a legendary monster. A transcendent sense of smell is manifested!]
A transcendent sense of smell!
As befits a grandiose name, it was completely different from when I used the low-level sense of smell skill earlier.
[Exclude odors that are unnecessary for tracking!]
[If a target odor exists within the range (2km), it detects it through magic!]
Cerberus’ sense of smell is not simply sensitive to smell, it uses magic to detect odors. !
And he was sensitive to unnecessary smells, so there was nothing to frown upon.
On the contrary, they were completely unable to sense odors that were not necessary for tracking, leaving them without a sense of smell at all.
‘This feels strange in its own way.’
Raymond made an awkward face.
‘But how do you use this sense of smell to track? Can’t you feel anything at all?’
Raymond looked at the explanation again.
Detects when the target odor exists within the range (2km).
As expected of the legendary hell dog, it had a wide range.
The problem is that there is no way to detect if the desired odor is not present in it.
‘First of all, it’s not within 2km of here.’
It was a natural story.
The range of the slum alone would easily exceed 2 km.
As the best city on the continent, the slums were beyond imagination.
‘Then isn’t this skill useless?’
Raymond made a troubled face.
‘I can’t directly search the entire ecliptic.’
But then Raymond suddenly thought of a method.
