Chapter 18 Door-to-door investigation

Wren tried three more icons to figure out what they did.

One is to take a photo, which allows you to take a photo of what you see in front of you and save it, and it comes with a photo gallery, but it's empty for the time being. There is also a translation dictionary, Wren can't be sure, because nothing has changed since it was opened, maybe the application method is wrong.

The last one is more interesting, it's actually a music player!

Wren originally liked music, and was asked by his mother to learn to play the piano when he was a child, although he didn't play very well, but he still knew a little bit about music, and he usually went to play with friends and colleagues, and sang a few songs in KTV, winning a round of applause.

He opened the music player and found that there were nearly a thousand songs in it, all of which he had downloaded on his phone before.

It was a big surprise for Rennes.

He ordered a song with great anticipation, and a familiar melody sounded in his head, and he was fascinated when he listened to it, and suddenly missed everything on earth, and he was quite sad.

After listening to a few songs in a row, Wren sighed softly and turned off the player.

It was dawning soon.

Wren didn't sleep all night, but he was in good spirits, and after breakfast in the hotel lobby, he went out.

Esperger's and Ramsey were dead, and he could go back to his apartment in the open, but considering that the bag of money, swords, and shotguns he got last night were not easy to carry, he didn't check out immediately, and hid in his room first, and then dealt with later.

He now has to make a trip back to the apartment and show his face in front of the landlord, who may report it to the city hall and get himself in trouble.

Getting on the bus back to his apartment in the Los district, Wren knocked on the door of the landlord's house on the first floor.

An obese middle-aged man in pajamas opened the door, he held a newspaper under his arm, and when he saw Wren, his face was a little impatient, and he asked, "Wren, what's the matter with you?"

Wren had come to him twice before because of a leaky water pipe in his apartment, which was an old problem in the apartment building.

The building had been built for decades, and the water pipes were so old that they would have cost a lot of money to replace them with new ones, and the miserly guy would not have been willing to pay for them.

"Good morning, Mr. Lenny. ”

With a smile on his face, Wren said, "The day after tomorrow is my time to pay the rent, but I'm busy these days and may not be in the apartment, so I'll hand over the rent to you in advance." ”

As he spoke, he handed over the 120 copper liso bills he had prepared.

When Lenny heard that it wasn't a water pipe problem, his face softened, he happily took the money, nodded and said, "Actually, it's okay to pay the rent a few days later, but it's better to pay early." I'm having breakfast, Wren, do you want to come along?"

"Thank you, Mr. Lenny, I've already eaten. Wren simply refused, and then politely took his leave.

The landlord was notoriously stingy throughout the street, but he always liked to pretend to be generous. If he really agreed to the invitation to breakfast, he would definitely find a way to get the money back for this breakfast.

Back in the apartment on the third floor, no one lived in it for almost half a month, and a thin layer of dust fell.

"If you want to live in the future, you still have to do hygiene. ”

Wren spent half an hour cleaning the entire room, then washed himself up and changed into clean clothes.

He was just about to go out and find an alchemy shop to do a soul test, when he heard a conversation between the two on the street.

"115 Kissham Street, Captain, here we are. ”

This is a beautiful female voice, judging only from the voice, her age should not be more than thirty years old, and the voice reveals a sense of confidence. As she walked, there was the sound of metal armor colliding, apparently wearing armor, and her steps were very heavy, and the sound she made was different from the others, and it was very easy to recognize.

The man who responded to her was a rich man: "It's this apartment building, yes, let's go up, room 308 on the third floor." ”

The man's steps were extremely light and dexterous, like a cat walking.

Wren was shocked when he heard this, the door number of his apartment was Room 308!

These two people are coming for me?

He immediately locked on to the source of the sound, and two footsteps, one light and one heavy, came from the hall on the first floor, and they had already entered the apartment, and soon stepped up the stairs.

Judging from the sound of footsteps, it is very likely that these two people are transcendent, and it is unlikely that they want to escape.

And this is the third floor, even if the physical fitness is far beyond ordinary people now, jumping from the third floor will hurt you, and you can't run far.

"You must not escape, otherwise you will not be recruiting. ”

Various thoughts flashed through Wren's mind, guessing that these two people should be sent by the authorities, and they found out that the owner of the manor outside the city last night was Ashperger.

The reason why I came to find myself was that I had been to the sword hall and knew that I used to be Ashperger's assistant, so I came to investigate.

"They moved so fast, they tracked me down in a few hours, they should have found the altar of that evil god, so they paid so much attention to it. ”

Wren was secretly glad that he didn't bring the money and shotgun back to the apartment, otherwise he would be in trouble.

Between thoughts, his mind settled.

Soon, there was a knock on the door.

Wren calmly opened the door and saw a man and a woman standing outside the door.

The man was in his thirties, wearing a black leather jacket and trousers, a gun pouch around his waist, and a wide-brimmed felt hat that resembled a cowboy hat.

Behind him, a heavily armed female swordsman.

She was very tall and delicate, with long golden hair tied behind her head, beautiful silver armor, and a two-handed sword on her back, and a golden balance engraved on her breastplate, which was the holy emblem of the god of justice.

"A fourth-level ranger, but wearing a soul gun like a gunslinger, and a third-level female holy swordsman!"

Wren had already opened his soul eye and saw the extraordinary professions of these two people, but his face showed consternation, and he asked, "Two adults, ...... you?"

The man in charge took out a card from the pocket of his leather jacket and said, "I'm Pollock from the Sheriff's Demon Slayer Team, she's my teammate Frida, and this is my ID." ”

Pollock didn't mean to give the card to Wren to look at, but just showed it in front of Wren for a second or two before taking it back.

In other words, ordinary people can't read the content of the card clearly at all, but ordinary people don't dare to ask when they hear the identity of the person who came.

The Sheriff's Bureau in Lonshander is similar to the Public Security Bureau in the past, and the law enforcement officers that people usually see are called sheriffs. There is one of the most special departments in the Public Security Bureau, the Demon Eradication Team, which specializes in cases related to demons or cults.

The members of the demon slaying team are all transcendental, and the number of team members is maintained between five and ten, with various classes, and they all act collectively when they go out.

The scene of Pollock showing his identity card made Wren feel inexplicably familiar.

Isn't this a scene that has been seen a lot in movies before?

He wouldn't be surprised if Pollock suddenly shouted the FBI right now......

He complained in his heart, but on the surface, he pretended to be a little frightened, quickly opened the door, and said, "My lord, please come in, I don't know what is the matter?"

Pollock walked into the room, but Frida, the swordsman, remained outside the door, and she gave Wren a deep look, then withdrew her gaze.

Pollock looked around the room, it was so simple that he couldn't see anything at a glance, so he asked, "Do you know Asperger's Fern?"

"Yes. Wren said truthfully: "I used to be his assistant, but I only did it for half a month. ”

"Why did you do it for half a month?" Pollock asked in a deep voice.

"Uh......" Wren was alarmed, this was the only place he could be exposed. Because he didn't know how Asperger's confession to the swordsmanship hall after killing him.

Although the most likely possibility is that Asperger didn't say anything, pretending not to know where he was. But there is also another possibility, Esperger's report to the sword gym that he thinks he is not suitable for the job of assistant and has been fired.

Pollock frowned when he saw Wren stumbling, and said majestically: "This matter is very important, you had better tell the truth, otherwise you will have to be brought back for interrogation." ”

"No, no, no......" Wren hurriedly waved his hand and said fearfully, "My lord, I said." ”

"Half a month ago night, Master Esperger and Ramsay came to me and asked me to bring my weapons and go with them to do a big business, the kind that can make a fortune, but maybe I want to kill people, I was so scared at that time that I ran away while they were not paying attention, and hid in the countryside overnight for a long time, and did not dare to come back until this morning. ”

Wren answered half-truthfully, avoiding the previous question, so as not to match the statement of the Sword Gym.

Pollock listened but didn't react, his eyes stared at Wren, and Wren lowered his head in fright, his body trembled slightly, and then asked, "You can run away, and you can be considered alert." But why don't you report it?"

Wren replied with a wincing winch, "I don't dare, and there is no evidence." ”

He looked up, "My lord, has Asperger been caught?"

"He's dead. Pollock replied expressionlessly, "And your classmate Ramsay, too, is dead." They are all cult believers, and if you are lucky, you were not involved. ”

"Ah......h

Seeing him like this, Pollock had no interest in asking any more questions, turned around and walked out of the room, waving his hand to the female holy swordsman: "Let's go." ”

Wren watched the two leave, and waited until their figures disappeared at the top of the stairs before closing the door.

He wiped his forehead and found that his palms were wet, and he couldn't help but admire his acting skills, shook his head and said secretly: For the sake of his life, this is all forced out!

Downstairs, Pollock and Frida had already walked out of the apartment, and the two began to talk.

"Frida, did you find anything?" Pollock asked in a low voice.

"No, Captain. My psychic detection is normal, he's just an ordinary person, and he has nothing to do with evil gods. Frida replied.

"Then leave him alone. ”

Pollock snorted and continued: "This kid didn't tell the truth, he wasn't an extraordinary, but he escaped from the hands of a second-level shadow martial artist, there must be something hidden here. But since he has nothing to do with the evil god, then forget it, there is little point in tracking it down, so as not to frighten the young man. ”

The footsteps of the two faded away until they disappeared completely.

Wren's expression was complicated, and he was also afraid for a while, and secretly remembered the names of these two transcendentals.
