Doctor Player Chapter 230

Then an unexpected thing happened.

“Bind Count Roden.”

Cairn gave the order!

The knights who stood guard rushed in and tied Count Roden to his knees with a rope.

“Bring him forward.”

Everyone watched him with puzzled faces.

Count Roden is Cairn's closest subordinate.

It was obvious that Cairn would be behind Count Roden.

‘What do you mean? Are you trying to save Count Roden with the authority of a judge?'

It was very likely.

‘But no matter how much His Majesty Cairn, he couldn't save Count Roden in this situation?'

At that time, Count Roden begged hurriedly.

Cairn was the only way for him to live now.

“Your Highness… … ! Not me! don't you know? That I couldn't! This is a conspiracy!”

Cairn looked down at Count Roden for a moment.

“Yes, I know your loyalty.”

“So… … !”

“But it sounds like you need an explanation. Tell me everything honestly.”

“… … !”

Count Roden's heart trembled.

to be honest.

What Cairn meant now was this.

‘You're asking me to cover my sins. Then he said he would take responsibility.'

Count Roden's hair was a mess.

had to choose

Do you reveal that you are the owner of Cairn or do you take the blame alone?

Honestly, I wanted to reveal the truth. But that didn't make it any better. No, it would be even worse.

If Cairn gets into trouble as well, there will be no one to rescue him. You will be sentenced to death for sure.

‘In that case, I'd rather cover my sins and expect Your Highness' salvation... … ?'

Since you killed royalty, you can't avoid being sentenced to death here.

However, if Cairn had power, he could somehow save him.

‘If things don't go well, they'll be able to get me back by switching people before my sentence is executed.'

At least it was better than having zero chance of surviving.

With that in mind, he lowered his head and cried out.

“I tell you the truth. It's all what I did. A false allegiance to the heart of punishing the Marquis of Fennin for confusing the realm! It's all my fault!”

When the Earl of Rawdon admitted his guilt, sighs erupted throughout the courtroom.

Earl Roden looked at Cairn with earnest eyes.

‘Your Highness, please... … !'

he did his best

Now he could only hope that Cairn would save him.

but.

“The real culprit has been revealed, but I, the 2nd Prince Cairn, will act on behalf of His Majesty the King and make a judgment.”

In an instant, Earl Roden's spine stiffened.

Cairn's eyes were extremely cold.

without any warmth.

“That Highness?”

“I will sentence the guilty Count Roden to death.”

This is the sea that was expected so far.

All Count Roden wanted was for Cairn to use his strength to somehow save him before his sentence was executed.

but.

“Considering the heinousness of the case, I will execute a summary execution right now.”

“… … !”

Everyone in the courtroom, including Count Roden, widened their eyes.

A summary execution?

‘no way? What is Cairn's intention?'

It was only then that people realized Cairn's true intentions.

He wasn't trying to save his aide, Count Roden.

It was to kill him and silence him!

“No, stop it!”

But it was too late.

Dig!

Cairn's sword cut Count Roden's throat as it was. Blood gushed out like a fountain.

“Huh!”

“Kyaaak!”

The courtroom was covered with astonishment.

Cairn looked down at the people.

I felt a cold chill on my blood-soaked face.

“I’ll doom it with this.”

And Cairn disappeared without looking back.

“master!”

Christine ran up to Raymond in the prison cell and cut the ropes that bound his hands.

“You worked hard. It's fortunate that the false accusations were cleared, but that psychopath got out... … .”

This incident was clearly instigated by Cairn.

However, since Count Roden died while covering the crime himself, it was no longer possible to directly question Cairn for the crime.

But Raymond shook his head.

“it's okay.”

“yes?”

“Cairn is over now.”

Christine sighed and nodded.

Earl Roden died after covering his sins, but will people believe it?

no way

People are not stupid, and everyone will assume that the real culprit is Cairn.

Even worse, Cairn had eliminated Count Roden with his own hands.

“In the future, those who follow Cairn will completely disintegrate.”

Christine nodded.

In fact, he was completely eliminated as a candidate for succession to the throne.

“Still, this is not enough. I have to make them pay the price.”

“Of course not. So I made a way.”

“… … ?”

Raymond pulled out a long glass bottle from his bosom.

It was a sample bottle of hardened blood.

“This is the blood taken from Her Highness Seitil's body. I plan to analyze this blood to see if there is any drug addiction.”

Raymond recalled Seytil's condition on the evening of the incident.

It looked like he was intoxicated with something other than alcohol.

‘According to the words of Seitil's attendants, Cairn came to visit me a few days before the incident and handed over the medicine. They said it was a medicine to soothe a depressed mood, but... … .'

Antidepressants are shit.

It was most likely a drug with a stimulant effect.

‘So, if we detect drug substances in this blood, we can implicate Cairn in this case and punish him.'

Cairn can't even imagine.

I couldn't believe I was going to detect the drug in the corpse and use it as evidence to punish myself.

‘It won't take long.'

Christine nodded.

“But how do you detect drugs? Master himself?”

Raymond shook his head.

The knowledge of alchemy was lacking.

‘I should leave it to the experts.'

Just then a voice was heard.

“The analysis will be done at our magic tower.”

It was Rina!

She looked at Raymond with a light smile.

“Can we talk for a moment, sir?”

‘… … Nope.'

Raymond broke a sweat.

It was an incredibly burdensome look.

I felt like I was going to get eaten while talking.

At that time, Rina brought up a sobering story.

“There is something I would like to tell you about ‘Them'.”

* * *

Moved to Penin Treatment Center.

Raina opened her mouth with an elegant voice.

“First of all, congratulations on clearing your name, Your Excellency.”

“It is thanks to the efforts of the Arch Mage. thank you.”

“Thank you. I'm just reciting the evidence prepared by His Excellency. really… … His Excellency seems to be great the more I see him. It is precious.”

Cold sweat ran down Raymond's back.

Raina's eyes looking at him were becoming more and more greedy.

‘Although it was worth it.'

Solve the case with forensic science!

It was truly revolutionary.

Indeed, the messages came to mind.

[First on the continent to solve a case with forensic knowledge!]

[Achievement ‘Father of Forensics'!]

[Bonus level up!]

[Bonus level up!]

[Get 200 skill points!]

[All future investigators will praise your great achievement!]

[You will learn the skill ‘Forensic Profiling' as a perk!]

Raymond's eyes widened.

‘Forensic profiling?'

[Forensic Profiling]

Type: Academic Skill

Proficiency: D

- Based on forensic clues, ‘approximate' characteristics of the criminal can be inferred!

- As your proficiency level increases, more accurate reasoning is possible!

Can you deduce the culprit from forensic clues?

What a skill!

‘… … But it seems like a skill I don't really need. Now I won't even go to a crime scene.'

Raymond made a puzzled face.

This incident was enough to get involved in the crime.

I will never be involved in such a terrible thing again.

‘I'm just a healer! Crimes should be handled by knights or investigators!'

Crime wasn't the only thing I wanted to avoid.

Raina in front of him was also a problem.

‘… … Please don't look at me so greedily.'

Raymond made an awkward face.

Raina was looking at him with eyes like a lady staring at the most expensive jewel in the world.

‘… … You're not going to kidnap me to the Mage Tower like this, are you?'

Raymond hastily changed the subject to call attention.

“Kuhm, but you said you stepped on their tracks?”

“Ah yes. In the middle of the continent.”

“… … !”

mid-continent.

It was the area where the core countries of the Crusader Empire and the Free City Alliance were located.

‘But should I listen to their stories?'

Raymond thought softly.

‘… … I think they're too big for a small person like me to fit in. Wouldn't it be better to do something like this at the Mage Tower or Kingdom level?'

To be honest, my mind has changed.

Right after the magic stone mine incident happened, I was burned with a sense of justice and thought I had to catch the criminal, but after a while, um. I wanted to leave such dangerous and difficult work to others.

‘… … Because I don't have to be involved in catching the criminal. Honestly what can I do? Aren't there many better and more suitable people?'

It was Raymond who wanted to leave the dangerous job of catching them to those good and suitable people and live a comfortable and happy life of making money.

‘Let's just listen. Listening doesn't mean I have to do anything.'

Raina quenched her thirst with tea for a while and then continued.

“To be honest, it wasn’t easy to follow in their tracks. Because there weren't too many clues. However, while investigating in various ways, I found one strange thing.”

“… … .”

“Recently, among the heads of the southwestern kingdoms of the continent, a large number of people have died due to unknown causes.”

“… … !”

Raymond was taken aback.

southwestern countries.

It refers to other kingdoms that are different from the country of 4 Yak.

“A typical example is the Droton Kingdom. Numerous influential people, including the former king, died for unknown reasons, and eventually Archduke Berard took power.”

Rina quietly continued.

“And now something similar is happening in one country in the middle of the continent.”

“… … !”

“Important figures have died one after another due to unknown causes, and thanks to this, the one who was pushed out of the succession to the throne is emerging as a strong candidate for the throne again.”

If this was really the work of these guys, it was a scary and terrifying story.

It means that he has the power to say that the succession to the throne of many countries has been overheard.

‘What the hell are these bastards?'

Raymond grew more and more afraid of them.

‘… … I think a petit bourgeois like me (?) should really step out of here.'

Raymond deliberately did not ask what the middle country was. I just didn't want to get involved.

Instead, he told a different story.

Be a little more direct so that Raina can understand.

“okay. You worked hard. I will completely trust the Mage Tower and the Arch Mage to do the work of the Kingdom there, and I will focus on calming the chaos in the Houston Kingdom.”

Conspiracies in other countries are unknown to me.

I will live a happy life in the kingdom of Houston, so please take good care of me.

However, Raina showed an unexpected reaction again.

Far from cursing him for being a coward, he let out an exclamation of admiration.

“also… … dismissal. You want to take the lead and catch them by the tail.”

“… … yes?”

“I know that they are trying to lead the way, knowing that their shadow has fallen on the Houston kingdom as well. Ah, amazing. You can be this reliable.”
