When it came to the clues, Detective Kebei instantly softened, and he was embarrassed: "I tried my best to find it, but Brut City is too big, and those people can't have a party every day......"

Su Xian was a little speechless: "So you didn't find anything?" ”

"Not really." Detective Kebei hurriedly said, "Although I haven't found anyone, hasn't it been reported in this newspaper?" So I went to the newspaper reporter and found out the addresses of a few witnesses. ”

Su Xian said: "Then you will go to find witnesses?" ”

Detective Kebei immediately nodded and said, "Yes, I searched for them one by one, do you know what I found?" ”

Su Xian cooperated: "What did you find?" ”

Detective Kebei suddenly looked around suspiciously, and then leaned over and whispered, "They're all crazy!" ”

……

"Crazy?"

Su Xian was a little surprised: "I remember that the newspaper said that there was a reporter who tried to follow the interview and was beaten up in the end, what about the reporter?" ”

Detective Kebei shook his head: "I don't know, I also specifically asked, only that the reporter later resigned, and then the person disappeared." He wasn't from Brut City in the first place, so he might have returned to his hometown. ”

Su Xian said again: "But the number of witnesses should be quite a lot, right?" Are they all crazy? If so many people really go crazy, there should be news that there will be news. ”

"Not much, actually." "There were only one or two people at a time, so it didn't add up to more than ten people. In short, with my detective intuition, this is clearly artificial! The people in the newspaper were very taboo when they talked about it, and no one dared to investigate it anymore. It is estimated that there will be no more news related to it in the newspapers in the future. ”

"It's better to be artificial."

Su Xian pondered for a while and said, "If that's the case, this commission will end here." It's not something you can do anymore. ”

Detective Kebei shook his head and said, "No, I must investigate to the end!" It's been a long time since there's a case like this that makes me want to dive headlong into it! ”

Su Xian shook his head: "Whatever you want." This is your commission these days, in short, your task has been completed. ”

Detective Kebei took the commission and stayed where he was.

After a long while, he suddenly came to his senses: "Boss, do you want me to help you do a day job?" ”

Su Xian shook his head again: "How could you have such thoughts?" I just felt that this mission was more dangerous than I had imagined, so I withdrew the commission. As for whether you'll continue to investigate, that's your own business. I will no longer be responsible for your safety. ”

Wood has been made into a boat, and rice has been made into a cook.

Detective Kebei walked out of the rare treasure antiquities shop with a confused expression.

"Kobei."

"Hmm!"

"You forgot your cane."

"Forehead ......"

……

After seeing Detective Kebei leave, Su Xian began to prepare some clothes to wear tomorrow night.

This man relies on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, his momentum cannot be weak, and his hairstyle cannot be messy.

The next day, Saturday, July 19.

He didn't go out again, but opened a shop, reading books and cultivating at the same time.

Sure enough, there were few decent guests on this day......

When it was time for noon, Professor Buck came over, and he revealed his itinerary for the evening, only to receive an inexplicable smile and an equally unclear blessing: "Young man, it's time to have more fun." ”

……

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Su Xian changed into a leisurely student uniform, put on a soft felt hat, stepped on a cowhide bag, and got into the carriage to travel.

After all, it's a reading party, not a tea party, a banquet and a dance party, and the participants are basically students, so there's no need to dress too formally.

For this reason, he also took back the "Link's Baybing Sword" in the card album, and only held a reprint of "Ten Thousand Years of Solitude", which is said to be the autobiography of the gods, which is full of force.

This book "Ten Thousand Years of Solitude" is thicker than "The History of the Development of the Kingdom of Long" and "The Life and Death of the Great City of Long" combined, and it very carefully explains the whole process of a god who calls himself "me" from birth to aging.

From the perspective of "God", the author depicts a long history of the Kingdom of God that does not know whether it exists, and is called by a small group of people as "a monumental work that reproduces the historical and social picture of the Kingdom of God".

Those who read this book, in addition to experiencing the society of God in the role of the protagonist, can also take comfort from the fact that the protagonist has never had a girlfriend for ten thousand years.

In short, because the writing is too boring and the credibility is very low, Su Xian only read the first two chapters.

But it's always wrong to use it to pretend to be forced, and it's impossible for anyone to see it all anyway.

……

There are three organizers of the book club, and in addition to Fran and Nancy, there is also a Lily.

Each time, the venue is basically in Lily's castle.

The castle is some distance from College Street, and like the abandoned church, it is a relic of the last era, and its address is remote, uninhabited, and quiet.

But it is this kind of environment with a somewhat eerie and eerie feeling that can sublimate the ordinary reading club to the level of a glamorous dinner party.

In the final analysis, it is the word "forced qualification".

The carriage stopped in front of the dirt road about two hundred meters away from the castle, Su Xian got out of the car, settled the account, and walked inside.

In the field of vision, Lily's castle has appeared on the other side of the darkening sky.

It wasn't a large castle comparable to the Misty Castle, it was actually far from it, and it could be seen as a castle-style villa.

Lily Frederick, Lily's full name, her father is a local aristocrat who is already quite rare in the city of Brut and is also a wealthy merchant who runs related industries, while her grandfather is an earl with stubborn and traditional ideas, and has always been at odds with his father.

Influenced by both her old-fashioned grandfather and her enlightened father, Lily is a reserved and egoistic person who knows her worth quite well, but doesn't use it as a basis, as evidenced by the fact that she can become close friends with a commoner girl like Fran.

Basically, this is the impression of Lily in Su Xian's mind.

……

"In short, the power is relaxed."

He came to the gate of the castle and walked to the small door at the edge of the gate.

When a woman waiting inside the door heard footsteps, she opened the door and looked out, just in time to see Su Xian's face.

"It's little Mark, you're here, Miss, they've been waiting for a long time."

This middle-aged woman named Mei is Lily's wet nurse and personal maid, who has been in charge of taking care of Lily since she was a child, and has a high status in the earl's family.

"Aunt May."

Su Xian called according to Mark's memory, and walked into the castle with Mei's leadership.

After a brief chat with Aunt May on the way, he knew that he was the last to arrive, and some of them had even arrived at the castle since morning.

This is a phenomenon that has rarely been seen before.

This reading club, it seems really special?
