127 Sharp Intuition
Let's chirp, chirp. Let's chirp, chirp.
Holden stuffed the freshly baked Qu Ruosi in his mouth, chewing very carefully, as if he was savoring every trace of taste on the tip of his tongue, sensing Isa's gaze, he also turned his head, handed Qu Ruosi forward, and asked with his eyes:
Do you want a bite too?
Isa turned her head with a black line, isn't it too late to pretend she doesn't know this guy now?
Hodden didn't care, his gaze fell back on Ned, "Can you tell me what's going on with that harasser?"
Ned frowned slightly, as if he didn't want to continue to entangle with the vigilantes, but he was asked again, his expression was helpless, but he answered anyway.
"A man named Darryl came here looking for her. Suzanne was helping with the shipment in the back, and when she saw the man, she was terrified, she said that the man was her ex-husband, but the other party would only punch and kick her, and hurt Austin, and she ran away just to get away from him. β
There's another ex-husband? So, is this Austen's father?
Parsia followed behind Horden and cast his gaze at Horden incredulously: how the hell did he do it? He had just followed Horden, and he hadn't heard anything, not to mention the clues of the case, and he didn't even know what Ned had said, but how did Horden find out the details?
Hodden was still chewing on the bar, "Didn't you advise Suzanne to report to the vigilantes, or did you want to show your masculinity?"
"I suggested Suzanne report to the vigilantes. But she didn't want to affect Austin's life, she just hoped it didn't happen. After Ned finished speaking, he also opened his arms a little helplessly and sighed lightly, "I know, I made the wrong decision, but that's what I thought at the time. β
"I told Darryl that Suzanne had left the Rock Abyss. Judging by the way Darryl looked, he should have believed me, because he hadn't shown up after that. After Ned finished speaking, he didn't wait for a response, and then said impatiently, "Okay, I've told you everything I know, I need to go back to work now, and you've seriously affected our business." β
"Wait. And one last question. Hoden called out to Ned.
Ned glared at Howlen impatiently.
Hodden smiled widely, "You don't want to be considered a suspect, do you?"
Ned's shoulders drooped.
Hodden continued, "When you were talking about your friendship with Susanna, you mentioned that Suzanne said that she already has a heart, but there are some deviations by mistake, and that person is not around for the time being, so she has no way to accept you. So, did she say who this man was?"
Obviously, this man should not be Mr. ex-husband.
Ned shook his head, "No, she didn't say that, she just said, that's the person she's been waiting for, alas, that person missed his carriage." Goddess Shuma is on top, and I swear I don't know what she's talking about, and I don't know who she's referring to. The more he talked, the more irritated he became, and Ned didn't suppress his anger.
Hodden savored it for a moment, then didn't speak again, but ate his Quruos intently.
Let's chirp, chirp.
For a moment, there was only the slight sound of Horden chewing, and all eyes were projected towards Horden, but Horden made a swallowing motion, "Is it too loud? Sorry, I'll be quiet." β
Pacia almost choked on his own saliva: that's not the main problem, okay?
Issa also felt amused, but she had already had experience before, and she quickly reacted and took the initiative to say to Ned, "Thank you for your cooperation." But I suggest that you don't act rashly, we may come back at any time to look for you to help with the investigation, and your suspicion is still not cleared. β
Ned glared at Issa with round eyes, but hesitated for a moment whether to continue the entanglement or turn away, and finally chose the latter.
Turning back to the counter, Ned saw that there were coins on the counter, his first reaction was to be stunned, and then he realized that it was the cost of the Quruos that Horden had eaten, and it seemed that Horden had left it himself, which made him hesitate for a moment.
Should he return it stubbornly, and then curse the other party, "Don't want your stinky money", but after thinking about it, he still put the coins away, and viciously grinded his teeth at the departing backs of Horden and the others: If you don't make money, you won't get along with the coins.
Back on the street, both Issa and Paxia's thoughts were a little turbulent.
I was worried that there would be no clues, and even if I wanted to continue the investigation, I didn't know where to start, but now there are two possibilities:
An ex-husband, a true love?
What's going on here?
So, who's Austin's father? Who is Oliver's father? Who is the murderer?
The case, which was already full of fog, seems to be getting more and more confused.
But Issa had another question, "HΓΈden, how do you know that Ned is going to be here? Ten years can change so many things." β
Before Hoden could speak, Issa added, "Don't tell me, it's just luck." β
A smile welled up in Hoden's eyes, "But that's just the way it is. β
Noticing the roll of Isa's eyes, he went on to add, "It should be said that the necessity is found in chance, and then with a little luck. There are some things that we may not be able to see clearly when we are in the present, but after the passage of time, we can find different angles from a different angle, and maybe the truth is hidden in them. β
"Iwabuchi seems to be prosperous, but it is still a small town at heart, and people live here, and they rarely take the initiative to make changes, especially these poor people living in the lower city. β
"Do you think anyone would voluntarily quit their family-raising profession when it is incredibly difficult to find a job? I guess Ned isn't the type of wandering bard. β
Guess a possibility according to the context of the matter, and then follow the clues to verify it, and occasionally need a little luck to help:
It turns out that Ned has been doing the same job for 10 years.
Issa thought about it carefully, and at this time, looking back from the perspective of the result, it seems that this is indeed the case, and it is not difficult, but looking at it from the perspective of the beginning, it is not necessarily possible to glimpse such a vein. Hidden behind it is Horden's keen intuition.
"What's next? Should we go back to the vigilante and look into the ex-husband's condition?"
Parcia looked a little confused, "But Susanna's file doesn't have any information about marriage. β
"Maybe they weren't officially registered. Issa gave a possibility, "Ten years ago, Suzanne was only twenty years old, and she chose to elope for love, especially if she accidentally found out that she was pregnant, which can be made clear. What's more, we now have the name of our ex-husband, we can go back and try it out and see if we can get the favor of the goddess Kayden again this time. β
The goddess of Kaiden, known as the "goddess of luck", is also the "goddess of love".
