Gemstone City also had ordinary people who worked as bounty hunters, but they all came from countries outside Gemstone City, such as Moon City. As people from this fairy-tale world, if these bounty hunters could recognize criminals at a glance, they shouldn't be running around with the players arresting outsiders indiscriminately. Judging from the information Li Kun brought back yesterday and what he had seen in the city today, these bounty hunters were targeting ordinary people from elsewhere.
Since it was the same fairy-tale world, its people should all follow the same rules. By that logic, Gemstone City's residents couldn't directly tell whether people from this fairy-tale world standing before them had committed crimes.
But there was one small problem: the bounty hunters they'd caught weren't real thieves. The laws in the different countries of this fairy-tale world might vary, too, leading to different countries having different understandings of the same person's "criminal behavior." In other words, the outsiders who were arrested might not be considered criminals by the people of Gemstone City, but the bounty hunters considered them criminals.
The odds were low, but they couldn't rule it out completely. If that was the case, the residents of Gemstone City should be able to tell whether anyone had committed a crime.
Either way, the likelihood that an outsider from the fairy-tale world was the thief had dropped considerably, while the odds that the thief was a resident of Gemstone City had increased.
If Gemstone City's residents could spot criminals with the naked eye, that would narrow down the thief's hiding places even further. After all, if everyone knew, the thief could only hide among the people of Gemstone City.
Of course, Xu Huo still thought it was more likely that the people of the fairy-tale world couldn't recognize one
