The Witcher: Make Witcher Great Again

Chapter 63 I have wine, do you have a story?
Lin En raised her eyebrows: "I remember you said this person is one of her close friends?"

Marco shook his head. "No, actually, they're more than just close. It's just like the professor said, dating is forbidden on campus, so the two of them can only pretend to be close friends."

Lin En also experienced campus life. Although he himself had never been in a relationship, some of his classmates had been in a relationship on campus.

He nodded in understanding.

"Then keep talking."

"Just a while ago, Gottfried came to me and said that Michelle had dumped him."

"Well, tell me more specifically."

Marco paused and continued.

"Well, there was a teaching building at Niubao University that needed repairs, so the school hired some workers from outside. One of them was named Flagler or Flagler, I can't remember exactly."

"This guy is very handsome and tall, with well-developed chest muscles... He is not in the same league as nerds like us."

"Many female students liked to stare at him while he was working, including Michelle."

"The professors also noticed this, and after a few days they stopped him from coming."

"But then Michelle disappeared. It's hard to say it was a coincidence."

Lynn frowned.

Judging from the information currently available, the muscular worker might be a member of a kidnapping gang sent to scout the area.

But why was Michelle chosen as the target?

"anything else?"

Marco shook his head: "No more."

Lynn thought about it and changed the question.

"Is Michelle's family rich?"

"Yes," Marco said with an envious look on his face. "I heard her father owns a lumberyard near Novigrad and has even bought a house in the city. I wish my family could be that rich."

Novigrad, the pearl of the north, has housing prices higher than Tretogg, the capital of Temeria.

Being able to own a house in the city is indeed the dream and goal of countless workers.

"Do you know where exactly the lumberyard and her home are in Novigrad?"

"I don't know... No, sir, how can I ask such a question? However, Gottfried might know, after all, he is Michelle's boyfriend."

"Okay, then you just need to answer one last question... Where did you find those workers?"

……

After leaving Marco's rented house, Lynn spent half an hour to find Michelle's rented house.

He first looked at his surroundings.

The ground is paved with gravel, and people coming and going are craftsmen engaged in handicrafts. They are dressed relatively decently and are in good physical and mental health.

On the road, Redanian guards carrying halberds passed by.

Judging from the environment, the security in this place shouldn't be too bad.

Never mind kidnapping.

Even if it's just a fight and there's a commotion, the guards will come over quickly.

Lynn walked around the house and soon made a new discovery.

He noticed some mud marks under one of the windows of the house.

Not just under the windows.

There was also some mud left on the window frames and the floor of the house.

This means that the person with muddy boots entered the house by climbing through the window.

Michelle is the one who rented this house, so she must have the key.

It's impossible that she would not go through the door but climb through the window.

The only person who could do this is the kidnapper.

Lynn looked around to make sure no one was looking in her direction.

He was very agile and he easily climbed in through the open window.

His first impression of the house was that it was very clean, as if the owner had left calmly.

Lynn spent a few minutes carefully investigating the entire house.

"Well, there were no signs of a fight, or a struggle."

"This shows that Michelle left with the other party voluntarily."

"It might be that muscular worker who came to Michelle and asked her to go out with him. Michelle herself didn't expect that she would never come back after that."

"These are the only clues we can find in the house."

"Next, we should go ask Michelle's boyfriend what that guy named Gottfried knows."

……

When Lynn found Gottfried, he was not at his home or in the student dormitory.

But in a pub.

Lin En came to the other person and looked at him, who looked like a guy who had suffered a mid-life crisis and could only rely on alcohol to numb himself and live in a daze.

The corners of his mouth curled up in a mocking smile. "The school rules at Oxenburg University are really strange. They don't allow students to fall in love, but they allow drinking."

Gottfried was about to lose his temper.

But the moment he turned around, he saw the two sword handles on Lin En's back.

He suppressed his anger again: "What's it to you, friend?"

Lynn had no intention of teaching the other person what to do at this age.

This is the other professor's obligation, not his.

Therefore, he did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

"It's none of my business, but I have to ask you a few questions, friend."

"Why should I answer?"

"Because this is related to your girlfriend, or ex-girlfriend Michelle."

When Gottfried heard Michelle's name, he jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

"Michelle? I don't care what happens to that bitch. She dumped me and I wish she'd been kidnapped!"

"Hey, calm down, okay?"

"No! Also, could you please just go away? I don't know anything, and even if I did, I wouldn't tell you."

Since Gottfried was so polite, Lin En unceremoniously released a master-level Axis Seal on him.

"No, you will, and you will tell me everything you know."

Although there are many rules and regulations in the Witcher Code that constrain and restrict newcomers, fortunately there is no mandatory rule that Witchers cannot use signs in front of Muggles.

Gottfried, who was just spitting with excitement, was suddenly stunned.

It was as if he had been hit from behind with a club.

The previously excited expression froze on his face in an instant, and then slowly calmed down.

"Now, tell me the location of Michelle's home and the lumberyard."

A few minutes later, Linn, who had received a satisfactory answer, left Gottfried's house, and then he came to his senses.

"What happened to me just now?"

No matter how hard he tried to recall, he couldn't recall what had just happened.

……

On the other side, Lynn came out of the tavern and headed straight for the port of Oxenfurt.

According to Marco's explanation, the workers who helped to renovate the University of Oxford a while ago were recruited from the port of Oxenfurt.

It didn't take Lynn long to find the workers who had worked for Newburgh University.

He didn't go empty-handed, he also brought a few bottles of wine.

Dealing with them is that simple.

After a few bottles of wine, they started talking.
