Chapter Ninety-Eight: A Busy Life of Solving Cases
After the three of them walked out of the hotel, Chris couldn't help but ask:
"Who is this lady, and why do you all know her?"
"Her name is Carolyn Carroll, and she is Wardhouse's ex-girlfriend. ”
Zach is like a simple and honest man, knowing that Chris and Paul are both "punishers", but he still said it truthfully.
Of course, it may also contain some unknown bad tastes.
Wow!
Chris's mouth opened wide in shock and stood motionless. Some of them are difficult to digest such a big melon, and they don't know what to say for a while.
"Alright, two young men, let's go our separate ways. ”
Zach smiled, and after glancing at it with a look that Chris didn't quite understand, said:
"I still need to deal with the next things, if you want to find me, you can come to the City Lord's Mansion to find Benson, and he will bring you to me. ”
"No problem, Mr. Zach Hand, goodbye. Chris and Paul greeted each other.
After watching Zach leave, Paul looked at Chris and asked in a low voice:
"Shall we tell the Boss the last news?"
"Don't!" Chris looked at Paul with a serious expression.
Otherwise, it is estimated that within a few days, the whole church would know the news. ”
As if thinking of the playful ruffian at the center of the topic, Chris couldn't help but shudder:
"Believe me, we're going to end up miserable. ”
......
At six o'clock this afternoon, Chris finally had dinner at home with Josie, the chef.
Dinner seemed to be a little more sumptuous than I thought.
After dinner, after Josie left, James and the rest of the seven team members sat on the sofa in the living room to discuss the progress of the case.
"I'll start with that. Wayne spoke, "Today, the four of us are investigating the disappearance of the homeless man together, and at that time we guessed that the suspect should be an extraordinary person. ”
"And then we met someone from the City Lord's Mansion's Guard, his name is Zack Hand, who is tracking down a wanted criminal to the abandoned factory.
"Based on the other party's description, we finally confirmed that the murderer Zach was looking for was the same person, a red-haired man named Pol.
And it just so happened that Chris met this man by chance two years ago and witnessed the scene of him killing people with a secondary seal at that time.
"Then, we decided to go down the murderer with Zack.
Zach provided an important piece of information, that is, there is a high probability that the other party has a magical item in the divination system, so Chris also took out a pocket watch that can be used for divination, and finally divined the other party's hiding place.
Considering that too many people would alert the murderer and flee, Zack suggested taking Chris and Paul with him.
"Alright, that's all I have to say. ”
So, James, Elton, and Jeffrey struggled to digest some of the news.
Zack of the City Lord's Guard, a second-level seal, and Chris's divination magical item......
Immediately, Chris saw his captain look at him with glowing eyes, which made Chris shudder.
After a minute of silence, Wayne looked at Chris and asked:
"What did you get out of following that Mr. Hand to the inn today?"
Wayne and Bonnie did not return early because they had gone to the police office in the morning to prevent the police from filing an urgent case.
Chris and Paul looked at each other, and under Paul's eyes, Chris still stubbornly said:
"The case can be closed. ”
"What? have you caught the murderer?" said Wayne in surprise.
Not only was Wayne surprised, but Captain James and the rest of the group also looked at Chris.
"No, he was taken. ”
"So, he still has accomplices?"
"I'm not sure if it's his accomplice......" Chris hesitated.
"After a fight, just as we were about to subdue Bol, a beautiful lady came, and she took Bol away. ”
"You didn't fight her?" asked James.
"Zach says she's a Sequence 6 extraordinary......"
The implication is very clear, isn't fighting like death?
"Indeed, it is wise to encounter powerful extraordinaires, unnecessary fights and retreats. James agreed.
"A beautiful lady?"
As if hearing a sensitive word, Wayne teased:
"Little guy, you are still so young, can you not achieve the spring heart sprout?"
"Wayne!" shouted Elton from the side, "watch your words, don't teach bad children." ”
"Ann, Ann. ”
Wayne waved her hand, there were so many people present, only Elton liked to scare her.
"It seems that this Zach is not simple, he can actually see the other party's sequence level. James said in a deep voice, "We will visit this Mr. Hand later and summarize the facts of this case." ”
Chris was a little speechless, he had a reservation just now, and he didn't know if he would be taught a lesson by James at that time.
Forget it, it's better to be taught a lesson by James than to be put in small shoes by Wardhouse. Chris thought very snobbishly.
Because Chris and Paul completed two tasks in quick succession, Captain James gave them a day off.
The next day after breakfast, Chris walked to a small separate room next to the living room.
This room houses Chris's two machines, a two-meter-long steam engine, and a converted centrifuge.
Because of their huge size, on the day of the move, Jeffrey paid a porter to carefully move them here.
Although James and the others didn't know why the three new members needed this kind of machine, they were too busy with the case for the past two days to ask questions.
They're too busy.
Chris only had a day today, making antivenom to sell to Boss Barnard over the weekend.
And tomorrow is the weekend, and I don't know what Captain James has planned for tomorrow.
Chris first went to a nearby store to buy some small medicine bottles, and then used a syringe to draw the blood of brown horses grazing in the stable, following a familiar process.
Finally, he put the blood into the centrifuge, turned on the switch of the steam engine and then the centrifuge, and used his original acceleration magic to purify the antivenom.
"Looks like Barnard needs to do a detoxification control experiment tomorrow. Chris said with some trepidation.
"Who knows if there is any mental impact and change in the mind of their horse after changing the environment, resulting in a change in the medicinal properties in the blood. ”
Of course, the last sentence is just a joke of Chris, and the experiment is just in case, after all, human life is at stake.
Chris finally knew why Wardhouse had told them that their academic careers were over when they joined the "Discipliners".
This is not at all what he said about the fear of criminal demon retaliation!
There's simply no time!
