Chapter 116: The Child of Lanerwes

Christina didn't notice the soothsayer's dazedness, glanced at Angelica at the reception desk, and said in a suppressed voice:

"I mean the children of Lanrius. ”

She stretched out her hand and pointed to the young girl wearing a ruffled hat next to her and said:

"This is my niece, Megous, whose mother is my eldest sister, and I regret and am sorry that I thought Laneus was a brilliant and remarkable young man, so I introduced Megous to him as an unmarried person, and watched them become lovers. ”

"Megous's parents were also happy with Lanrius and planned to invest all their savings in the steel company after their engagement, but luckily before this happened, Laneus escaped, which saved their family from fatal losses, and unfortunately my sister and brother-in-law had to explain to relatives and friends the reason for the cancellation of the engagement ceremony, and had to worry about the child in Megous's womb. ”

"We all believe in the god of steam and machines, not in the Lord of the Storm, and do not believe that lovers must be chaste before marriage, and we do not blame Megoos, and even sympathize with her, but the survival of the child is indeed difficult, especially since he has such a father. ”

This is a deception of money and sex...... Klein looked at Megoos, who was standing quietly, and saw that the girl was quite a beautiful woman.

She had a smooth forehead, long blond hair, and large eyes that resembled Christina, and she was pursing her lips in a melancholy and calm manner.

What an outrageous fraudster, and he managed to escape...... Klein cursed Lanrius and thought for a moment:

"If it is a child who has already been born, I do have a way to use him to tell the approximate whereabouts of Ranrius, but unfortunately, it will take many months to wait, well, this may be the embodiment of the previous divination results, patience, waiting, persistence, no longer greedy, and then usher in a turnaround, see the sun. ”

"Months...... Christina muttered her head, "No, after all this time, even if you find Lanrius, you won't get your money back......"

She looked sideways at the blonde Megaoos, and her voice involuntarily deepened:

"Do you have any items from Lanrius that you have with you?"

"Nope. Mecous replied softly and softly, "Does the ring he gave me count?"

"It must be something that has been carried for a long time. Klein shook his head in disapproval.

Christina was silent for a few seconds, looked at Megoos and said:

"You have to make a decision, I think leaving this child will make your life difficult and full of thorns for the rest of your life, are you going to tell him that his father is a fraudster and has cheated a lot of people, including his mother?"

"It's time to go to the clinic and the hospital, and that will help us find Lanerus and get back what we lost. ”

Hey, wouldn't this kind of divination be too heavy? Klein is not good at interfering in other people's family affairs, so he can only wait patiently by the side, and occasionally make a remark.

Megoos lowered his head, lowered his gaze, and did not speak for a long time.

After a while, she touched her lower abdomen and said with a gentle smile:

"He was different from his father, he was a very thoughtful and likable child. ”

"He would gently kick me every day, tell me how he was feeling, he would hum songs, he would whistle, and he would help me fall asleep with music......"

Crane listened and suddenly felt that something was wrong.

The first half of Megoos's words is a common reaction, but the second half is almost babbling, talking about unrealistic things.

Was she hit too hard, and she was mentally ill?" Klein raised his right hand and reached to his eyebrows, trying to pretend to knead to soothe his tiredness.

At this moment, Megooss turned abruptly and walked briskly to the door, leaving only one sentence:

"Maybe his father will secretly return because of his birth and will keep some of his wealth for him......"

Crane was stunned for a moment, and before he could turn on his vision, he watched as Megoos left the club and slammed down the stairs.

Christina took a breath and said slowly:

"I'm sorry to bother you, Mr. Moretti, but we'll try to find Lanrius's belongings. ”

Crane looked at her as he watched her go downstairs, sighing and shaking his head.

............

The next morning, as soon as Klein entered the Black Thorn Security Company and greeted Rosanne, he asked:

"Where's today's paper?"

The sweet brown-haired girl Roseanne looked at him and wondered:

"Crane, you're weird. ”

"Why?" Klein asked with an expected smile.

Luo Shan rolled her eyes and said:

"You used to read the newspaper during your lunch break, because there was a occult class in the morning, well, old Neil is already waiting for you in the arsenal!"

"I knew in advance that there would be a reward for a case, so I wanted to flip through the newspaper and remember what the criminal looked like.

"Really?" Roseanne curiously picked up a few of today's newspapers and began to flip through them quickly, "Wanted...... Lanrius, right?"

Klein immediately replied:

"Yes. ”

“...... Hateful fraudster!, he cheated more than 10,000 pounds!" Luo Shan looked at it carefully for more than ten seconds, and suddenly burst out with indignation.

Crane felt the same way as her, and then reprimanded:

"It's really disgusting! I want to take the initiative to take over this case!"

Luo Shan looked at it for more than ten seconds, shook her head regretfully, and said:

"There doesn't seem to be a supernatural element involved in this case, and even if it did, it would be handed over to the Storm Lord's substitute for punishment. ”

Klein didn't understand what Roshan meant, but after taking the newspaper and flipping through it, he sighed regretfully:

"Yes, there are so many people who have been deceived, and the believers of the three major churches must be included, and the location of the Lanerus Steel Company is in the Southern District. ”

Cases related to supernatural factors will be given to the corresponding team if they involve followers of a single god, but if the goddess of the night, the lord of the storm, and the followers of the god of steam and machines are involved, they will be divided according to the jurisdiction - the Golden Sycamore District, the North and West Districts belong to the Nightman Squad, the Eastern, Southern, and Wharf Districts belong to the Punisher Squad, and the University District and the suburbs belong to the Heart of the Machine.

While looking through it, Klein also remembered the appearance of Lanrius:

He has a full forehead, black hair and brown eyes, and glasses with almost round lenses, and the corners of his mouth are slightly upturned, as if he is mocking everyone.

Aside from the glasses, Lanerius had no obvious features, very ordinary.

After a few more pleasantries with Roshan, Crane passed through the partition and prepared to go underground.

At this time, he saw the pale-skinned and cold-tempered "corpse collector" Frye and the white-haired and black-eyed "writer" Miss Siga Teang walking out of the entertainment room at the same time and turning towards him.

After a brief greeting, Klein watched the two teammates leave, and found Dunn Smith in a black trench coat standing next to him.

"Is there a case?" Klein asked curiously.

At this point in time, the two night watchmen will not go out together for no reason.

Dunn's gray eyes swept away, and he smiled:

"There's something that seems to be haunted in the West End, and I'll let Siga and Frye take a look, but you don't have to worry about it, I'm not going to involve you in any more missions until you've mastered the martial arts, and I'm going to have to be accountable to my teammates. ”

Captain, you are such a good person, except for a high hairline and poor memory, there are no shortcomings...... Klein secretly praised and asked in a confirmatory manner:

"In other words, I just need to take occult classes, train in martial arts, and get paid without any contribution?"

"It's only temporary. Dunn replied in the affirmative.

You only need to "listen to classes" and "fitness" to get a full and generous salary, which is quite cool to think about...... Klein thought happily.

I hope there will be no more coincidences!, he prayed silently.

............

The uneventful life continued into Friday, when Klein arrived at Beswick Street in a car after completing his martial arts practice.

Outside Henry's private detective agency, he glanced left and right, put on a gauze mask after confirming that no one was paying attention to him, put on a trench coat collar, and walked quickly into the corridor.

Knocking on the door, Klein once again saw Detective Henry, a middle-aged tough guy.

"Good afternoon, sir, one of your commissions has come to fruition. Detective Henry, with dark blue eyes, said in a voice of cigarette and alcohol.

Klein deliberately said in a hoarse voice:

"Is that the gentleman's message from the dragon bar?"

The gentleman who bought the Audience Potions Auxiliary Materials......

"Yes. Henry raised his pipe.

Then, he didn't say anything, just smiled and looked at Klein.

Klein understood what the other party meant, and in distress took out four 1 pound bills and handed them over:

"This is the second payment. ”

He paused, then added:

"Write me a receipt. ”

His private house was less than £1......

"No problem. Henry coughed twice and inspected the banknotes for security marks while instructing the employees to bring paper and pens.

Immediately afterward, he invited Klein to sit down on the couch area, and he quickly wrote the receipt and stamped it himself.

After doing all this, Henry took a puff of smoke and said:

"According to your description, my assistant and I waited for three days at the Dragon Bar and finally met the gentleman. ”

"He's a very wary gentleman, and very observant, but luckily I'm a veteran of it......"

"His name is Daxter Guderian, the doctor at the Greenhel Asylum. ”
