<Guard Captain> Balu

Oh, it's Sprite Messengers! We have a murder case here and we are trying to find the killer among the suspects. Although we have their testimonies, we cannot determine who the real culprit is from their words."

"If only we had someone who could help us..."

You often encounter crises that require you to use your brain, and you can easily resolve these dangers. Perhaps you can help Balu find the real killer. You tell Balu your idea, and his eyes light up.

"Really? Thank you so much! I'll bring their testimonies..."

You stop him from getting the testimonies and tell him that sometimes you have to ask face-to-face to judge the truth from their words and actions.

"I didn't know there was such a profound knowledge in interrogation. Then please ask Fene, the Servant, An, the Housekeeper, and Nicole, the Hostess, again!"

"Oh, and before that, we sought the help of a witch who told us that she couldn't tell who the real killer was. It seems that something blocked her perception, but she used all her power to sense that the real killer is someone who never tells lies."

You express your gratitude to Balu for the information.

You told Balu about your Investigation Result and thoughts. After listening, Balu interrogated Fene again and presented your Investigation Result, finally making Fene confess and explain the motive for the murder.

"The culprit is indeed Fene. Not only did Fene bankrupt her once wealthy family, but also did many... inappropriate things to her. When Fene learned the truth, she developed a murderous intent towards the master of the house, which led her to directly kill him regardless of any risks."

"Before the murder, someone actually tried to dissuade Fene, and that was the butler, An. He had always loved Fene and even though he knew what the master had done to her, he still only wanted to take Fene away and start a new life with her."

"On the day of the incident, Fene took advantage of the master's momentary lapse of vigilance and killed him. An saw it happen, but instead of reporting it to the police, he stopped Fene from turning herself in and asked her not to confess no matter what we asked her later. An then wiped away all the fingerprints left by Fene and disposed of the murder weapon. During the trial, he also tried his best to clear Fene's name."

"Fene never wanted to lie, but she also didn't want An to directly confront her with the truth. So she could only tell us that in this murder case, the mistress, Nicole, was completely innocent. As for whether we could find out that she was the real culprit, it was not a bad thing for her, but rather a relief.

You tell Balu about your Investigation Result and thoughts. After listening, Balu interrogates An again, but only gets more confusing answers.

You join the interrogation and find that An said a lot but it was all to cover up something. However, it is certain that he is not the killer of the master, and his behavior is more like protecting someone.

"No! We can't get the truth from the butler's mouth!"

Balu looks disappointed.

You tell Balu that based on your observation just now, you don't think An is the killer. You will ask again to see if you can re-derive the truth.

"Then I'll ask for your help again!"

You tell Balu about your investigation results and thoughts. After listening, Balu interrogates Nicole again, but she just keeps crying and saying it wasn't her.

You join the interrogation and realize that Nicole's emotions have completely collapsed. From her eyes, you can see that the death of the male host is really not related to Nicole.

"Is it her?"

You shake your head and tell Balu that the death of the male host is not related to Nicole. You didn't see any guilt or hatred towards the male host in Nicole's eyes. You can even feel that Nicole deeply loves her husband.

"It's not her..."

Balu lowers his head in disappointment.

Seeing him disappointed, you quickly tell him that you will go and ask again to find the real culprit.

"Thank you so much!"

Balu looks at you happily.
