Chapter 379

Jadenโ€™s eyes were filled with joy. โ€œAlright, go ahead. With the surveillance cameras and the aura of the spellcasting, the evidence is complete. Even if that person doesnโ€™t admit it, we can still punish him according to the law for special groups.โ€

Phoebe nodded. โ€œOkay.โ€

She took out yellow paper, cinnabar, and talisman pens from her bag. First, she used talisman strokes to draw an imaginary talisman on Unaโ€™s back to force out the aura of the previous spellcasting. Then, she dipped the cinnabar on the yellow paper and used her essence energy to draw another talisman. Then, she used the pen to draw in the void, as if she were drawing a bridge.

Then, Jaden and Soren saw traces of black gas emitting from Unaโ€™s body. They slowly crawled into the yellow talisman. When the black gas no longer appeared, Phoebe used another pen to finish the yellow talisman.

After she was done, she picked up the talisman and handed it to Jaden. โ€œIโ€™ve already sealed the spell-casting aura within this talisman. The Special Force should have some device or means to track auras, right?โ€

That was why they could often lock onto the perpetratorโ€™s aura when investigating a case. For example, when they captured Reynard Morse previously, as long as they were close, they would be able to detect and lock onto the other partyโ€™s aura.

Jaden nodded and said, โ€œYes, we have specialized instruments.โ€

Most of the staff in their department were not horoscope masters. Most of the time, when handling cases, they relied on modern instruments targeted at unnatural methods.

โ€œThatโ€™s good. When the time comes, you guys can go and compare the aura of your spells.โ€ Then, she carefully checked Unaโ€™s body. She suddenly realized that there was a small piece of cattail under the nail of the other partyโ€™s index finger.

She used the tools in the room to pick out the cattails. โ€œThis thing is most likely what Una caught when she struggled. You can bring it to the Horoscope Association to find something like this when you arrest them. Identify all of them and see if there are any matches.โ€

The Special Force should have a lot of appraisal equipment. Jaden took out a container and placed the cattails inside. โ€œYouโ€™ve been very helpful today.โ€

It was amazing to find so much evidence in a row. If the person who killed Una knew that Phoebe had dug out so many cover-ups, he would probably vomit blood from anger.

Phoebe smiled. โ€œI am non-staff personnel. This is my duty now.โ€

Jaden smiled and said, โ€œThatโ€™s good.โ€ He put away the container and extended his hand. โ€œWelcome aboard, Phoebe!โ€

Phoebe shook his hand. โ€œThank you!โ€

Jaden then went to report the matter to his boss, while Soren drove Phoebe back.

On the way, Soren said, โ€œArenโ€™t you afraid that theyโ€™ll find someone to deal with you?โ€

Phoebe smiled. โ€œIโ€™m not afraid.โ€

Coincidentally, it was a red light. Soren tilted his head and gave Phoebe a deep look. โ€œSince the last time we met, I realized that you have gained a lot of confidence.โ€ Moreover, this time, she seemed to give off a sense of mystery.

Phoebe chuckled and said, โ€œItโ€™s alright.โ€ The reason why she chose to fight head-on was naturally because she had advanced to the Ascendance Realm. Previously, because she was weak, the restrictions were too great. Now that she had reached this realm, she could use many methods.

Soren could tell that Phoebe did not want to tell him where her confidence came from. He tactfully didnโ€™t ask further. He changed the topic. โ€œBy the way, the voodoo warlock my mother hired to deal with you has left Oriar and returned to Vientiane.โ€

Phoebe asked in surprise, โ€œIs he not going to deal with me anymore?โ€

Logically speaking, since the voodoo warlock had received Opheliaโ€™s money, it was unlikely that he would run away. Otherwise, if word got out, he would have no credibility in the sorcerer circle. In the future, no one would ever hire him to do things again.

Soren replied, โ€œI received news that he knows of your achievements outside Oriar, so he went back to get something. Within a month, he should enter the country again and come to look for you. Be careful from now on.โ€

โ€œAlthough that personโ€™s strength is only at the late Conmate Realm, he has a mentor who is in the Ascendance Realm. Heโ€™s famous in Vientiane, and heโ€™s also sponsored by many large factions over there.โ€

Phoebe nodded. โ€œYes, I will.โ€

She suddenly asked, โ€œHave you seen your father!โ€

Soren was stunned. He was obviously surprised that she would ask this. It seemed that Phoebe knew everything. He shook his head. โ€œIโ€™ve never met him. However, Iโ€™ve contacted him twice. He sounded a little old. He looks like heโ€™s in his fifties or sixties.โ€

He continued, โ€œIโ€™m guessing that he might have deliberately changed his voice, or that his voice and face were different. If he was in his fifties or sixties, my mother definitely wouldnโ€™t be so infatuated.โ€ He felt that his mother was love-struck. He added, โ€œWith my motherโ€™s personality, she wonโ€™t fall in love with an old man. That man must be very charming.โ€

Phoebe asked, โ€œDid he contact you before I went to Oriar, or recently?โ€

Soren replied, โ€œBefore you went to Oriar. He hasnโ€™t contacted me in the last three months. The people he arranged to contact me in the past have also temporarily stopped contacting me.โ€

Phoebe caught two pieces of useful information from what he said.

The person behind the scenes might have been in his sixties on the surface. When he was with his women, he should be a handsome and charming old man. Therefore, regardless of whether there was a backlash or not, the target she should go after should be the old man.

She had originally suspected the uncle of the vice president of the Horoscope Association. However, Raylan said that the person wasnโ€™t Siennaโ€™s biological father, so the person behind the scenes wasnโ€™t that person.

Phoebe asked, โ€œAre you going to Oriar to make an arrest?โ€

Soren nodded. โ€œYes.โ€

Although they did not say it explicitly, both of them knew that they had reached a consensus to cooperate.

Phoebe said, โ€œThen use your identity as Special Forceโ€™s captain to go to the place where the higher-ups of the Horoscope Association live and find clues. Una is your sister, so I suspect that her death was caused by your biological father. Of course, heโ€™ll definitely find a scapegoat. It depends on who it is.โ€

Soren was the other person on Percivalโ€™s list that she could trust. That was why she was so shocked when she saw it. In addition, after she entered the Ascendance Realm, she could see through Sorenโ€™s aura. He did not have any murderous aura, which proved that he never deliberately harmed others. That was why she said that to him.

Sorenโ€™s eyes moved. โ€œIn that case, although we canโ€™t catch him, we can find out from the scapegoat.โ€ Not only did he have no feelings for his father, but he also wished he could quickly capture him and cripple him. It was a pity that the other party was just an old man. He had been hiding and didnโ€™t even leave any clues. This was indeed a good opportunity.
