It takes 2 hours to fly from Kalland to Bolandon. From the south coast of Bolandtown to the port of Shamal in St. Deland, the Diagonal Strait is 70 nautical miles in between, about 70 minutes by speedboat.

Departing at 7 a.m. and arriving at 11 p.m., Zhao Xihe and Bella arrived at the port of Shamal. It's raining, there are no tourists on the coastline, only the roar of the sea, which washes the beach over and over again......

Thirty minutes later, the two took a taxi to Medicar. A rustic rural town.

At Zhao's request, Bella is now a Bollandton girl with sleek big blue wavy curly hair. Her facial features, in terms of local aesthetics, belong to the fairy-level beauty. The figure is also beautiful, and under the small short skirt is a pair of white and tender long legs...... Charming.

"Beautiful young lady, is there anything I can serve you?" a group of squinting staff members in the town hall gathered around and scrambled to strike up a conversation.

"Sir, where is this Chinese man?" Bella held up a photo of a red bat.

One of the staff members replied, "His name is Baof, a Chinese magician...... omitting 300 words of nonsense, and adding at the end, "A year ago, he died." ”

He's dead......

There is a church in the town, and you can walk along the river to the bridge. Next to the church is a small cemetery.

Spent two bucks and hired someone to dig up the grave of "Baofu".

The shroud was complete, but the corpses inside were rotting and smelling strong. Zhao Xihe forcibly restrained the desire to vomit and the stench of spicy eyes, rummaging on the rotting corpse...... Eventually, a walnut pendant was found around the neck of the carrion.

Despite the rancid stench, you can still smell the residual body odor of Bauf, and the hint of rotten orange peel characteristic of Class C mutants.

Is this really dead?

Zhao Xihe didn't believe it, and he was not reconciled, so he tore off a relatively well-preserved scalp from the head of the rotting corpse. Take it under the tree to blow the wind and use the wind to take away the rancid smell from above. Then use your nose to sniff ...... It still stinks!

Wind Wind ...... This person's body odor is definitely local white. It is completely different from the body odor on the walnut pendant.

"In order to avoid pursuit, this thing faked his death, which is very cunning. Zhao Xihe sneered.

"What then? No, you can search the whole of St. Teresa with your nose, right?" Bella's mouth turned up, revealing a wicked smile.

"Who are the dogs?!" Zhao Xihe gave Bella a brain crash with his fingers.

Zhao Xihe took Bella to St. Deland's fort, took the "detective card" issued by the royal family of Bolandon, and went to the immigration office. Tell him: Five years ago, two ethnic Chinese attempted to murder our Queen Elizabeth. The case has never been solved. There is information that they are currently hiding in St. Teresa. I have been instructed to investigate this case, and I hope that you will cooperate.

"Oh......" The immigration officer looked at the agent card in his hand with a suspicious face.

Seeing this, Zhao Xihe hurriedly dragged Bella over and introduced it very seriously and solemnly: "This is Miss Baroness Bethton, Queen Elizabeth's niece. ”

Really.

"Hello, Miss Baroness Beston. The immigration staff quickly got up and bowed to Bella.

"Hello. Excuse me, what's wrong with our papers?" Bella asked with a gentle smile.

"Isn't it just two Chinese, no problem. ”

Your mother, aren't they just two Chinese?!!

This is blatant discrimination!!

Zhao Xihe wanted to beat up this thing.

According to the archives, there are 72 Chinese who have stayed in St. Teresa for more than half a year in the past five years. Of these 72 people, 40 have already left definitively. In other words, there are still 32 people who can be investigated.

"If there is no order from Queen Elizabeth and our Foreign Ministry, you will have to investigate it yourself. "USCIS doesn't want to send someone to help.

"That's thankful, thank you. Bella bowed.

In the next week, Zhao Xihe and Bella traveled all over St. Tereland, investigating these 32 people one by one. Of course, just find a reason and say a few nonsense, as long as you can get close to them and sniff them with your nose.

Unfortunately, no.

"Boss, what should I do?" Bella rubbed her legs with her hands, her face very haggard.

Zhao Xihe rolled his eyes and thought for a while, and suddenly slapped his thigh: "We can investigate the half-breeds?!"

"Ouch......" Bella collapsed to the ground.

According to the archives, there are currently 5 mixed-race Chinese children living in St. Teresa, 3 boys and 2 girls. There are plumbers, auto mechanics, and ...... who serve plates The best of the mix was a woman named Momi Stirling, a well-known female painter in Saint-Teresa.

Located on the corner of St. D'Landsburg, there is a Stirling gallery, which is her private art gallery. There was a row of cars parked in front of the door, and it looked like business was booming.

The light colors of the design in the gallery complement the more than 40 large and small oil paintings hanging on the walls. Large floor-to-ceiling windows overlook the garden outside, fabric sofas in the corners, and bookshelves full of books for reading, petting cats, and drinking coffee. A very atmospheric place.

As soon as Zhao Xihe entered, he smelled a smell of rotten orange peel.

Haha, Xiao Qisan, it turns out that you are hiding here.

"Hello, my name is Momi Stirling, distinguished guest, and welcome to you. The hostess of the gallery walked over and saluted Bella and Zhao Xihe. This is a delicate-looking, gentle and generous woman.

Well...... Although she smelled of rotten orange peel, it was impregnated, not her own body odor.

"What's the problem?" Momi looked at Zhao Xihe with some surprise.

Because, like a dog, Zhao Xihe sniffed and sniffed on the oil paintings.

"Miss Mommy, please, I want to talk to you. ”

"Good. Momi walked to the corner, sat on the sofa, and looked at Zhao Xihe with a suspicious face.

"You painted these paintings?"

"yes. ”

"Miss Mommy, lying is not a good habit, and I want you to tell the truth. Don't get yourself innocent into a case. A beautiful woman like you can't stand the torture of prison. Zhao Xihe took out the detective card and lit it up.

Mommy's face turned pale, and her eyes became a little flustered, even though she did a good job of hiding it.

"We only had a minute of patience. Bella looked at her watch.

Okay, this little girl's acting skills are getting better and better.

Momi began to drink coffee, sip after sip, the cup trembling slightly. At the end, she leaned down and said, "Bifu is my boyfriend, he is sick, afraid of the sun, and locks himself in the studio every day to paint. Yes, he is a bit weird, but he is very gentle, very nice to me, and good to small animals, and often takes leftovers to feed stray cats and birds outside the window...... I don't believe he's going to do anything illegal, maybe you're mistaken......"

Biff......

"I want to talk to him. Zhao Xihe interrupted Momi's narration.

"Hmm...... He's timid, please don't scare him, can you?" Momi's face was full of worry. It seems that Momi loves this product very much.

He's timid? He didn't scare you, that's good.

But Zhao Xihe said: "Don't worry, we are not rude people. ”

When Zhao Xihe followed Momi to Bif's studio, the studio was empty and empty.

"Biff......" Momi searched around the yard.

The studio was messy, full of paper and dyes, and the air was filled with the smell of spicy-eyed chemicals. Paper, paintbrushes, clothes, shoes, floors, curtains, everywhere smelled of rotten orange peel. This Bifu, if not a red bat, is a mutant.

If it is a mutant, it is under the control of the Planning Bureau and Lao Tzu. This is a power conferred by the United Nations.

"Biv is out, I didn't get the phone, let's wait. As Momi sat down, he kicked something under the bed with his foot.

It was a black leather whip.

Although the long skirt Mo Mi wore almost perfectly covered her body, Zhao Xihe still saw that there were scars on her neck, arms, and feet, new and old, staggered and overlapped.

"Why would he harbor a sadist?" Zhao Xihe couldn't help but ask.

"Oh......" Mommy froze, and then, his eyes reddened. She lowered her head and did not answer. But this already shows that Zhao Xihe guessed correctly.

"Miss Momy, you don't call this love, this is Stockholm syndrome, you're sick. ”

"I didn't!!" Momi suddenly looked up and shouted hysterically. Her emotions became agitated, her eyes were wild, and her hands and feet trembled.

"Smack!" Zhao Xihe got up and gave her a slap, and Momi immediately quieted down. She was like a tame little sheep and didn't react anything.

"See, you're used to being bullied. This is a disease, and it must be cured. ”

Momi lowered his head again.

"You're afraid of him, aren't you?" Zhao Xihe pinched Momi's chin and lifted her head, forcing her to look directly into his eyes.

Zhao Xihe is not full-fed, when he was a child, his father beat himself violently every time he was drunk, so that one day he was drunk and did not beat himself, he felt insecure. Those who are already cheap need to be beaten to prove their existence, this humble point. Later, with the help of my aunt, I re-established a healthy personality.

This painful experience is still difficult for him to accept and recall.

So, he is very sympathetic to Momi now.

"Sir, he often showed me the cats and dogs he had caught, dissected and dismembered them, and I was afraid of him, and he said that if I betrayed him, he would kill me like this...... Please, help me, sir, save me......" Momi broke down, knelt on the ground, hugged Zhao Xihe's legs, cried loudly, and begged bitterly. Tears fell to the floor......

Bella covered her mouth with her hands, stunned.

"Don't cry!" Zhao Xihe slapped him again, and Momi immediately quieted down.

"Now, you're safe because I can protect you. Biff, he is nothing in front of me, and I kill him like stepping on an ant. Rest assured, this case has nothing to do with you. Biv was a murderer, and when I took him back, I shot him. That way, you'll be safe forever. Zhao Xihe took Momi's hand, gently stroked her arm, looked at her with firm and encouraging eyes, and gave her strength.

Momi wept again, but was much more stable.

After 5 minutes, she finally told the truth: "If he's not in the studio, he's in the tavern." ”

"You don't have to go in, just point it to me outside, okay?"

"Yes. It took a long time for Momi to nod in agreement.
