During the drive to Deedie's house, Wes probably felt the need to brief Zach on the case," ...... Although the Pierce bureau ...... "automatic silence," it was a bit deliberate, but he didn't do anything wrong, Mr. Allen's son Chris is already an adult, at least with a driver's license, and the ability to act autonomously. It is impossible for him to investigate, as soon as he says that no one is missing, he will throw in the police to find ......"

Before that, Wes had already told the story of the report - the night before, after the rest time of the Southside, Chris did not return. Mr. Allen, who had recently received all kinds of sensational threats because of the protests, was very nervous, so he reported the case directly.

James naturally disdained West's intention to explain to Zach, but he still interjected and added, "I've seen the information, Chris Allen, 18, Reipt is a senior student, and it's normal for such teenagers to 'disappear' on weekends. James held the steering wheel, no one expected these three people to ride Wes's motorcycle to visit and investigate, "What made this side serious was yesterday morning, Mr. Allen waited all night to get back to Chris, and then confirmed with the school, and learned that Chris was not at the school, and after reporting the situation, the police entangled with the protesters began to investigate seriously, and then found Chris's car parked on the road leading to the North District. Only then did it confirm that Chris was really missing. ”

Zach doesn't really want to hear that, our vampire knows he's right, and when he gets to Didi, he can prove it. Now hearing that everything is a police investigation clue at the level of an ordinary human, he doesn't care.

"I feel like you're defending the Southern Police Department. Because he doesn't care about the real content, he cares about the words that he may not even be able to touch, "Was Pierce surprised by his sudden resignation?"

There was silence in the car for a while, and James glanced at Zach, "Cologne treats me weirdly. "I know he's upset that I have a case in my hands and run around, but he didn't say anything, just let me follow this Wes." Do you know why?"

Considering that there were even more strange things to come, such as Cologne asking James to bring the final payment back to Grande with the commission, "There is no reason to say it, you can cooperate." ”

Weiss pursed his lips and patted James who was clenching the steering wheel harder, "I'm not so surprised, although Cologne is the director of the bureau a few days ago, and Pierce is only the deputy, but it can be seen that Cologne has been enduring something, except for Cologne's first day in office, Pierce has not had any good looks at Cologne since then, it seems that Pierce has something in his hands that Cologne can't resist." Then yesterday the situation suddenly reversed, and everyone in the whole country could see that Pierce was starting to fear, and Cologne's momentum began to rise. I don't know why, but Cologne is the superior after all, and I think it's only a matter of time before Pierce will leave. ”

James looked at his friend, "You said Cologne ......"

Zach interrupted, "It's not appropriate to say why, James. ”

Well, Zach lured James to himself, "Is it related to Ethella and Anthony's forces!" "Remember what Zach said to James, Zach would support the political deal between the Devil's Banquet and Anthony, including Cologne who could take out Pierce, the pawn of Ethella's forces in the South. So in James's understanding, he could only come to such conclusions.

Zach smiled and acquiesced, pointing ahead, "It's here." ”

James stopped the car irritably, looked at the bland ordinary farmhouse in the South Side, turned off the fire, turned around and pressed Zach to open the seat belt, "You, stay in the car, let the detectives do our job!"

Zach pursed his lips and leaned back in his seat looking bored, "Remember to hurry up, I still have to go back to Grande and inform my friend of the results." ”

James pouted, ignored Zack, and Wes walked up to the front porch of Deedy's house and knocked on the door, "Patton Police Department." James was probably showing Wes the way of a detective as a senior, and when he knocked on the door, he had already removed his coat and put one hand on his waist, ready to show the police badge on his waist.

Wes, who was still wearing a police uniform, probably felt ridiculous, and shook his head to give up to James completely.

The door opened.

"Is there anything wrong, officer. "It's just a slit, and it's not Deedy, it's Nick.

Zach raised an eyebrow in the car and began to look at the man.

A momentary stagnation appeared on both detectives at the same time. It's not something that doesn't make sense - Zach says Nick is a kidnapper, and the victim is tied up in the basement by this Nick, and Zach says that Nick is not there. So what the two detectives expected was to see an alien, mirror man, not a murderer.

James reacted relatively quickly, took off the police badge on his waist, and dangled it in front of the other party, "Patton Police Department, Detective Lance, please open the door completely, we have some questions......"

Unexpectedly, the police badge was quickly taken away by the other party, and he looked repeatedly in the crack of the door, "Detective Reims, I don't know you." The eyes in the crack of the door drifted to Wes, "I know him, the rookie of the police department, his name is Wes, right?" You. Back to James, "Where did you come from?"

Zach touched his chin in the car, as if he had something to say.

Wes replaced James, who had a strange face, "Detectives from the North District Police Department." Got James' badge back, "Nick, yes, I remember your name too." See you again so soon. "Try to regain your momentum.

"Is there something wrong? Nick in the crack in the door seemed to be calm, "Are you going to take me to the police station to 'educate' again?" The tone was mocking, "Officer, this is my house, and I'm not protesting anything at Allen's right now." ”

Wes frowned and glanced at James, "We're investigating, the disappearance of Allen's son." He spoke very slowly, trying to buy time to think about the appropriate way to say, "Have you seen him, the night before yesterday and the time between the present ......"

"Why are you asking me?" was interrupted, "it's not my son." "Nick in the crack of the door has a gloomy face, okay be objective, maybe it's just a problem with the lighting in the room, which shows that he doesn't want to cooperate from the beginning, and now it's normal to put any expression on his face, "Tsk." Am I a suspect?"

James caught something, "We didn't say there were suspects, disappearances, there wouldn't necessarily be suspects." But we did find traces of struggling to resist, suspected to be a kidnapping, what, do you know the suspicions of the police......" James stared at his face in the crack in the door, trying to get a change of mood, but.

"You're here to help, what?" Nick in the crack of the door satisfied James, staring at James with all the malice in his eyes, "Who asked you to help?

James frowned, "Answer the question, have you ever met ......?"

"Nope. Nick replied directly, turning his gaze to Wes, "Any more questions?"

Wes's face was no better than James's, hesitated for a moment, took out a pen and paper, and all he could do now was to continue trying to get information, "Can you tell me where you were during the period between the night before yesterday and yesterday morning, when Chris was confirmed missing?"

Time span is the focus.

"Tsk, home. ”

"Didn't you go out?"

"Nope. ”

"Uh, haven't you been out all this time, early in the morning, in the morning?" Wes pouted, the question was really hard to ask. As James just said, there is a difference between missing and being kidnapped. Wes also had the consciousness of the police to arouse the alarm of the other party without evidence and a search warrant.

"What do you mean. Now the police don't care how long I sleep? ”

Wes casually wrote something in the transcript, and he couldn't ask any more. The person who wanted to ask for help looked back at the ...... in the car

Zach is gone.

Wes opened his mouth and nudged James, trying to remind.

At the same time as the dull sound of a blunt object hitting, Nick in the crack of the door snorted and pushed the door with his body, completely locking the two detectives out of the door. Without any time to react, there was a sound of a heavy object being thrown open behind the door, and the door was completely opened. Zach stood in the door, "No thanks. He lost a kettle in his hand, turned around and walked into the house.

"What are you doing!" James glanced at Nick, who was lying limply on the side of the door, "he ......"

"Don't worry, you're not dead. Zach waved his hand, "What did I say? Hurry up, I have something to do, and you guys are not efficient at all, and you are almost sent away." Zach passed by a woman, it was Didee, and nodded slightly, "I'm sorry, I'm back to disturb your life again." ”

"Don't be sorry!" Dee Dee completely ignored the two detectives who straddled her husband and stared at the vampire, "You don't have any sincerity at all!"

"Detectives, Didi the Mirror Man. Didi, Detective. Zach made an introduction at someone's house, "This way, Deedie, open the door." Zach pointed to the basement door.

"I won't open the door for you!"

"Don't make a fuss about Didi. Zach shook his head, "Compared to when I came before, the breath of the person below is weaker, I guess Nick beat him again? Hurry up and open the door, let the two good detectives save him, send the case to the hospital who should be sent to the hospital, and close the case when it should be closed." Before you even knew it, I was consciously leaving your life. ”

Wes was still hesitating whether to join the conversation between the two aliens that they couldn't keep up with, and James had already squeezed forward, "Deedie, yes! I don't care what you are! Is this Chris Allen down?"

Zach glanced at James, curled the corners of his mouth, and stretched out his hand to Deedie, "This detective obviously regards you as an accomplice, whether you want to change this embarrassing situation and become a witness who fully cooperates with the police, it's up to you, Didi." ”

Didi's face was gloomy, and his facial features began to concentrate in an eerie form, as if a whirlpool of floating objects floating on the water was being pulled in the middle. The faces of the two human detectives began to change strangely when Didi moved and opened the basement door.

As James and Wes rushed down with their heads down and ugly faces, Dee Dee Dee stared at Zach with her somewhat misplaced face, "I know what you're doing! Don't even think about it! I'm not going to point fingers at Nick!!"

What do you say?

Does Zach need Didi to open the door, no. He's already run to someone's house without the detective and Nick knowing. But Zach still tells Dee Dee to open the door and says that the role is changed from accomplice to witness.

Previously at the police station, what did Zach see in Nick's file? There was the content of the victim wife of domestic violence, Didi, who gave up correcting her husband Nick and withdrew the case. This is the real Didi, or the fact that this Didi did in front of the eyes of picking up the dignity that was given up by Didi and becoming a mirror man, it doesn't matter, no matter which Didi doesn't dare to defend against Nick.

The last time Zach came to visit, he said something, 'Deedie, you're already self-conscious, don't you think it's a pity to end and disappear like this?' ’

So what does it mean now, it's Zach, who is forcing Didi, the mirror man, to make a move that makes this life less regrettable.

"Sorry, this won't be what you wanted. Zach gestured to Nick, who was still lying on his stomach at the front door, "Your husband didn't faint on his own, and the door didn't open automatically for the two detectives to enter." ”

Dee Dee glared at Zack, "You!"

"The police are handling the case, I'm just a citizen, I'm not here at all. Zach tilted his head and looked down the stairs in the basement, where James was already running up with a weakened Chris.

Zach shook his head at James's gaze, "You can't die, you can just send it to the hospital." ”

James stopped talking nonsense, nodded at Wes, and went out with the man in his arms.

Wes was still in the basement, "I found something. Cameras, photos, film, ......" Wess didn't speak in a good tone, "Evidence, evidence of blackmail......"

James outside had already started the car quickly and drove away. Zach looked at Deedy, "Do you have anything to say?" meant to tell Dee Dee to explain to the detective.

Die Di pursed her misplaced lips and didn't speak.

Zach shook his head and went down the basement, "You said blackmail. ”

"Photos. Wes handed Zach several washed-out photographs of Chris in front of him with date-proof newspapers and magazines, "Yesterday's and today's." ”

Zach's attention was on yesterday's photographs, as the date was used to prove that the entire Barton had only over a hundred subscriptions to Urban Legends - Barton Weekly.

Zach raised an eyebrow and looked up at Dee Dee, who was still standing outside the basement door, "Do you want to explain?"

Didi didn't react, only an increasingly weird countenance.

Zach waved his hand and looked at Wes, "Did Mr. Allen say he was blackmailed?"

Wes frowned, "No. Or, it's that these things haven't been sent out yet, and Mr. Allen doesn't know. He shook his head and pursed his lips, obviously denying this possibility, the key to the kidnapper's completion of the ransom, not to send it out?

"Or, Mr. Allen, don't want to trust the police anymore. ”

Zach tilted his head and patted Wes, "Good thing now there's a reason for him to trust again." Zach stopped paying attention to Wes, walked up to the bottom of the stairs, looked at Deedie, and shook the photo representing yesterday, "What are you struggling with? ”

The features that were almost gathered together stopped gathering and stared at Zack.

"Alright, Didi. Zach shook the picture in his hand again, "Look at this, what do you see? I see you subconsciously calling for someone else to intervene in your life." ”

In the subscription of "Urban Legends", aside from the ordinary readers who really love that strange style of story, who are the remaining people, it is a 'person' like Zack, and people who know that a person like Zach exists. It's a clear signal that catches someone's eye.

"You can be upset that the way I show up is a little bit not what you want. Zach smiled and glanced at Wes, who was still searching for evidence in the basement, and Nick, who was shaking at the front door trying to get up, "But I showed up." ”

Dee Dee raised his hand, and the water bottle that had fallen to the ground floated up and crashed into Nick, who fell back on his stomach again. Didi looked at Zach again, straightened his face, and his tone changed, "Alan didn't provide the police with the blackmail photos, there will still be unreasonable things in this case, what are you going to do." ”

Zach smiled and thought for a moment, "The photo was made out of film, right?" Zach flicked the photo in his hand, "I just realized recently that my identity information hasn't been updated for a long time, hehe, you won't believe it, my file photo is still a black and white photo, I feel like a person abandoned by the times, so." Zach looked at Wes, "I went to the photo studio yesterday morning to take pictures, and I stumbled upon something uncomfortable that I couldn't ignore, so I went to call the police......"

Wes has found a receipt, "xx photo studio." ”

Zach nodded and looked back at Deedi, "What do you think?"

Didi responded with a roll of the eye.

"Alright, Wes, you can call for backup, it looks like I'm going to go to this photo studio. Didi, can I use your phone, I haven't replied to Steve for the reason I came before. Or, do you come by yourself, huh, a farewell ceremony with Didi Zeng?" )
