Coincidental?

John frowned, he didn't believe in coincidence.

Brian didn't believe it either.

And McCall?

Likewise disagreeable.

The three men looked at Jason once more after their eyes staggered.

Jason, on the other hand, got up and walked to the study and bedroom, took out the letter that the three of them had written to him, and placed it on the small round coffee table, pushing his fingers closer to the three of them.

"Are you sure, you guys wrote it?"

Jason asked.

John, Brian, and McCall picked up the letter and began to examine and read it.

The movements vary depending on the habit, but everyone is treated with due caution and care.

"Hmm."

"No problem."

"I wrote it."

Eventually, the three nodded together and said in unison.

Then, all three of them were stunned.

This time, without Jason saying anything, the three of them found out that something was wrong.

The three of them actually wrote to Jason at the same time?

Wrong!

To be precise, it was all three of them who 'noticed' Jason.

"You also saw the notice in the bulletin board?"

Brian looked at John and McCall.

"Hmm."

John nodded.

McCall took out his notepad, flipped through it, and placed it in the center of the coffee table.

In the notebook I looked through, there was a photograph in the middle of it, and the content of the photo was a notice—

Everybody:

I needed some quirky stories to inspire.

Do you have one?

If so, please let me know.

I'm in room 313 in apartment 3A.

Telephone: 0054444944

Jason

99.7.10

……

The angle of the photo is quite good, and the picture is very clear.

Jason scrutinized the photo.

The picture did not exist in his memory.

However, this photo is the beginning of it all.

Jason's eyes looked at John and Bran, and the two of them looked affirmative, telling Jason that they had seen this notice as well.

"Can you tell me, then, why you decided to write to me when you saw this notice?"

Jason continued.

His gaze swept over the three men.

There is no doubt that the three men in front of him are not ordinary people.

The appearance of any random one can cause a bloody storm.

And if the three of them come together?

With enough preparation, destroying a city is not too difficult.

But because of this, Jason became more and more curious.

Why was his mediocre announcement able to attract three people?

"My wife had just passed away, and I wanted someone to talk to."

"It just so happened that you showed up, Jason, and you were still renting in my apartment."

"I've looked into you, a writer who keeps his promises, and is well suited to be a confidant."

John was the first to speak.

The previous events were enough for him to have a deep understanding of Jason and make him willing to believe in him.

What's more, he owes Jason a favor.

"I was anxious and irritable because of what happened to Kemi."

"So, I want someone to talk to."

"And when I saw this notice, I subconsciously had the idea of wanting to talk to you."

Brian then said.

Like John, Brian was happy to believe in Jason.

You know, Jason saved his daughter.

McCall is different from John and Brian.

Although he and Jason are only one-sided, the sense of justice in his heart makes McCall outspoken.

"I don't want anything to happen to you, Jason."

"I've read "Cross Street Stalker", you are a good writer, although the writing is not first-class, the story content is also lacking, and the logic is not smooth, but you really worked hard."

McCall said, smiling at Jason.

Jason responded with a smile.

He really didn't know what to put on a face other than a smile.

Could it be explained that it was not written by the current 'me', but by the previous 'me'? Moreover, the current 'me' is not as good as the previous 'me'?

Let's not talk about such an explanation, whether the three people in front of them will believe it, just like this, Jason can't say it.

It's definitely not a shame to admit that he is not as good as the previous 'him' now!

It's just a little embarrassing.

"McCall, thank you so much."

Jason said solemnly.

"You're welcome."

McCall responded.

Then, Jason's gaze turned to John.

"You've looked into me before and come to an opinion about my promises...... Is such an investigation difficult? ”

Jason asked.

"It's not difficult."

"In fact, it is rumored in your book circle that you have been in contact with some special people to be able to write such a story, but then you seem to be arrogant and want to write your own story in the real sense, but unfortunately, your talent and ability are not enough for you to write such a story, so you are silent."

John said truthfully.

"Is that so?"

Jason muttered to himself, then paused, then suddenly asked, "When are you reading my book?" Was it before or after the notice? ”

"Before the notice."

John was the first to answer.

"Well, I was before."

Brian nodded.

"Same."

"I saw it about a year ago, when I had just 'retired' to become a private investigator, and naturally, I became interested in something similar, and yours happened to be popular at the time, so I bought a copy in a bookstore."

McCall's answer was to be more specific, and he immediately described it after giving an affirmative answer.

"My hot push?"

Jason frowned.

It's not surprising that he's been hotly tweeted, but it's strange that he, a writer who has only written one best-selling book in ten years and has been questioned in recent years, has begun to be hotly pushed.

Merchants are profit-seeking!

It's nature!

To put it simply, no profit can not be early.

What good is it for them to market a book by an outdated author?

Unless it's ......

Someone gave them benefits.

Thinking of this, Jason stood up and walked to the phone.

Although his phone is a landline, it has the function of saving incoming calls, and soon, he found the editor's phone record, did not pick up the microphone, turned on the speakerphone, and called back.

Toot, toot.

After just two calls, the editor picked up the phone.

"Jason, you're done?"

"If it's written, fax it."

"The post office is too slow."

"It's almost the end of the month, you promised me, don't forget."

As soon as he answered the phone, the editor said like a cannon.

"Not yet, I ......"

"You wouldn't want to take a leave of absence, would you?"

"Tell you, impossible!"

"You've run out of vacation!"

"Don't make any excuses!"

"Give me an honest manuscript!"

The last sentence, the editor almost shouted, turned on the speakerphone, and was buzzing.

John, Brian, and McCall looked at each other, and there was a hint of amusement in their eyes.

It was the first time the three men had seen an editor's draft.

Kemi and Tyri, who had been staying in the study and bedroom, also looked into their heads.

Jason was watched by a lot of eyes, but he was calm.

He, Jason, a gourmet...... Part-time writer.

Foodies come first.

The writer is behind.

Although he didn't write a work in the real sense, he ate a lot!

Moreover, with the identity of a writer, is it possible to go to the collection normally?

Isn't it normal to eat and drink when you are collecting wind?

"I'm running out of inspiration."

"You need to take the wind."

"Also, I haven't been sleeping well lately."

Jason replied.

"Not allowed!"

"You have to remember that you are a ruthless codeword machine!"

"You don't need to collect wind, you just need codewords!"

"As for sleeping?"

"Remember!"

"Only the dead need to sleep!"

"As long as you don't sleep, you can write 24 hours a day!"

The editor continued to growl.

"Oh."

"Why did Cherry City tweet my book more than a year ago?"

Jason casually perfunctory.

"Cherry City tweets your book?"

"Jason, you really didn't wake up?"

"Don't fantasize about these useless things, hurry up and work hard to write is the king!"

"Remember the end of the month!"

"I'm going to rush a few guys now!"

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Hands-free lights disappeared with it.

Jason turned to John, Brian, and McCall.

At this time, the faces of the three men were a little serious.

Didn't contact the publisher's editors for a hot push?

That could only be Cherry City's private behavior.

And such behavior?

It's for them!

The three men affirmed this almost instinctively.

From Jason's arrival in Cherry City to the appearance of the 'copycats', it was only part of the other party's plan to lure them all out!

As for why?

They already had a guess in their hearts.

McCall sat up straight and was about to speak.

But at this time, Brian waved his hand to stop it.

Brian stood up and walked towards the door of the bedroom--study.

"Kemi, you and Tyri go back to the room."

Brian said, blocking Kemi's curious gaze.

If it was before, Kemi would definitely rebel against his father's 'tyranny', but after the previous kidnapping, Kemi was much more sensible, nodded, and pulled Terri back to the room, and closed the door very obediently.

Behind the door, of course, Kemi put his ear directly to the door.

She was curious.

Tyri was just as curious.

This gesture did not hide Brian, and he gestured to the remaining three men to lower his voice.

"You're a good father."

When Brian sat down again, McCall was amazed.

"Just make amends."

Brian sighed.

Then, his voice became muffled.

"You know, I used to be so focused on my career that I neglected my family."

"When I retired, I was left with nothing left to make amends."

"So, I don't allow anyone to hurt my family!"

Such words more or less resonated with John and McCall.

"Hmm."

"There's a guy designing us right now."

"And it's already endangering our families or the most important thing."

"What's more, I'm sure he wants so much more than that."

McCall nodded,

John clenched his fists.

He thought of Daisy.

Brian's daughter is saved, but what about his Daisy?

His Daisy is dead!

He vows to avenge Daisy.

Now that a new goal has emerged...... Then kill each other!

A trace of killing intent began to appear on John's body, and the other three men in the room immediately sensed it.

"Calm down, John."

"That guy won't run far."

McCall comforted John.

Brian remained silent.

His daughter was saved, John's Daisy was not.

At this time, it was not appropriate for him to speak.

John's breath narrowed slightly.

Brian and McCall breathed a sigh of relief, what they were most worried about at this time was John's lack of calmness, which would startle the snake.

After all, the goal is all too clear.

They all appear for different reasons, but in the end, they still only do one thing: kill Elmod.

Elmod has many enemies.

There are more people who want Emmode to die.

But!

It's definitely not easy to be able to start laying out more than a year ago and lure Jason here silently.

It's not just patience, it's also about ability.

Moreover, there will be benefits from Elmod's death.

Those with vested interests, even if not murderers, are related to murderers!

All three of them have such a simple concept in their hearts.

And it just so happened that among Elmod's enemies, there was such a person.

Brian and McCall looked at each other.

The two uttered the name almost at the same time—

"Dodd!"

Jason frowned.

He's been here for too short, less than a day.

He didn't know much about Cherry City.

"Can you tell me about this Dodd?"

Jason asked.

"Of course."

Brian and McCall looked at each other, and the latter said immediately.

"Dodd, the Speaker of Cherry City, is a true bigwig, the real enemy of Elmod."

"And the one that Alter hates."

"Dodd has prevented Emmoud from entering the council on more than one occasion."

"But don't expect Dodd to be a good guy, it's just a matter of political disagreement that he stopped Elmod."

McCall said and stood up.

Staying here is also speculation.

Now that the goal of 'Dodd' appeared, he wanted to try his luck.

John and Brian also stood up.

They think the same thing.

"Wait."

At this moment, Jason, who had been silent for a moment, suddenly spoke up.

Suddenly, Jason once again caught the attention of the three men.

"Dodd should be Elmod's enemy."

"But don't you think it's strange?"

"In order to get rid of one Elmod, isn't it too overkill for him to draw the three of you in?"

"Moreover, when Almod and Dodd clashed, they should be at a disadvantage, right?"

"Is it really necessary for him to set up such a big situation to get rid of a person who is not as good as him?"

Jason asked rhetorically as he sat in his sofa chair.

John, Brian, and McCall frowned, and all three stopped at the same time.

They didn't refute Jason's words.

Because, that's what it is.

But this can be done......

Who laid it out?

Subconsciously, the three of them looked at Jason, who was sitting there.

Jason said unhurriedly-

"Let's think about it, if the three of you go to investigate Dodd, and then fight and kill Dodd, what about ...... Who will be the biggest beneficiary of this fight? ”
