"If you think about it, it's been almost six days since I came into this world, and this is the first rain I've seen."

Bean-sized raindrops bombarded the windows, beating people's hearts like drums.

Su Xian stood by the window and looked at the corner of the street, his mind falling like rain.

The pedestrians on the road were gone, the lights of dusk flickered in the rain, and the earth reflected the light of lightning.

There is a kind of loneliness that comes naturally.

……

"Sir Gannon."

The middle-aged decorator in the lead came over and shouted.

Su Xian turned around and looked at him.

The middle-aged man was frightened for a moment, but Su Xian immediately burst into an elegant and calm smile, which made him gradually relax: "Sir Guynon, I have a bottle of wine hidden here, do you want to ......?"

This was a natural invitation, but he then realized that his wine was inferior to the nobility, and he got stuck halfway through.

Su Xian smiled and said, "Is there any wine?" Then have a drink. Why don't we get a few people to go to Billy's Restaurant and order a table of dishes, and why don't we go to the restaurant today, so why don't we eat together at this restaurant? ”

Middle-aged man: "This ......"

Su Xian waved his hand: "That's it." I don't think the rain will stop for a while, so you can let everyone relax and do another shift tomorrow morning. Celebrate the completion of the project tonight. ”

"Howler!"

The middle-aged man was a little happy in his heart, and hurriedly asked someone to order a meal.

Billy's Restaurant isn't a particularly high-end restaurant, but it's still mid-to-upper-class, and it's a bit of a stretch to let them eat in a restaurant in that setting.

The idea of take-out and eating in the store is really great!

Sir Mark Gunnon was such a generous and understanding man!

……

Several workers listened to the order, and did not put on raincoats, so they covered their heads with their coats, and ran to Billy's restaurant not far away.

……

Beer, beef, bread, jam, vegetables......

Although there is still a gap due to identity differences, this meal is also enjoyable.

At half past eight o'clock in the evening, the workers sorted out the remnants, sent the pots and pans back to Billy's restaurant, chatted in the shop for a while, and then dispersed.

Su Xian watched everyone leave, but did not close the door.

The Rare Treasure Antiquities Shop hasn't reopened yet, and there won't be any customers coming to the door, but he still needs to wait for someone to arrive.

Recently, he has been interested in studying the history of the founding of the Kingdom of Longen, and he is reading "The History of the Development of the Kingdom of Longen" and "The Life and Death of the Great City of Longen", although these two books are boring, but they have research value and can also grind time.

At half past nine, the thunderstorm receded slightly, but the rain was still there, and the sky was gloomy as if it were about to collapse.

"Da Da Da ......"

In the haze, a figure ran in the rain.

Su Xian raised his head slightly, saw through the window that the figure continued to approach, and then pinned a bookmark on the book and put it aside.

When he put the book away, the man came to the door, and his wheezing was especially heavy.

"Sir Mark Gunnon, I'm Corbe! Quick, quick, open the door! ”

"What is so urgent?"

Su Xian frowned, and raised his hand to level it out.

"I always feel like I've been frowning more and more lately......"

He got up and opened the door, welcoming Detective Kebei in.

In the past three days, Detective Kebei has done his best and reported on Professor Barker's big and small trips.

On Wednesday of the first day, Professor Buck spent most of his time teaching at the college.

The next Thursday, Professor Buck led the students on an extracurricular practice tour of the antiquities store.

On Friday of the third day, Professor Barker stayed out of the house until the evening to attend an academic symposium.

Judging from the superficial itinerary of these three days alone, Professor Buck behaved normally, and it was exactly the life of a well-known professor.

But Detective Kobei is a detective after all, and his gaze is rather sharp, and he has successfully captured several suspicions of Professor Barker.

On Wednesday, Professor Buck walked out of school and to the police station.

On Thursday, Professor Buck exchanged things with a passing guest at the antiquities store, and although they did a good job of concealing it, Detective Corbes could still tell from their hand movements.

On Friday, Professor Barker was very close to the two of them at the colloquium, whispering from time to time.

Because it was an outdoor peeping at the time, the Corbei detectives were unable to hear what they were saying.

But as the symposium ended, a meaningful look passed between the two men and Professor Barker.

……

In addition, there are many suspicious points, and through the analysis of these suspicions, Detective Kebei judged that Professor Buck is likely to take action in the near future, so he reminded Su Xian to prepare last night.

After entering the store, Detective Kebei quickly took off the wet black wig set on his head, and then wiped it on his face with a damp cloth, and wiped off all the glamorous makeup he had spent, leaving only his lips that were still bright red.

"Jazz." He said quickly, "Professor Buck is getting ready to go out. I'm sure he didn't have a reservation before, and according to common sense, the weather is definitely not suitable for going out tonight, but he is already trying on clothes, and he has found someone to call a carriage, and it is estimated that he will be traveling in a while. We're going to hurry up ......"

Su Xian was slightly puzzled: "We? ”

Detective Kebei excitedly said: "Of course we are. I think he's going to go to a very important place next, and that's probably something that you want to investigate. Follow me, and I'll find a way to observe it safely. With my level of expertise, I won't put you in danger. ”

Su Xian was very helpless: "No, I mean, you don't have to follow." ”

Detective Kebei: "??? ”

……

Su Xian didn't explain too much, he went upstairs to get an all-black raincoat, took out a cane, and walked downstairs and looked at Kebei: "By the way, do you have a new mask here, borrow it from me." ”

"Okay." Detective Kobei picked out a black soft mask from his travel bag and handed it over.

Su Xian put on the mask, looked at the mirror, and nodded with a little satisfaction.

This mask is light and breathable, not easy to fall off, only the tip of the nose and lips are exposed, and it looks high-end at first glance.

Then he said to Kebei: "Today's commission ends here, you don't have to do anything, just go home." Come back here tomorrow and settle the order if I'm here. If I'm not there, the commission continues, no problem, right? ”

Detective Kebei nodded stiffly, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Sir, tonight's operation may be dangerous, you really don't need my company?" ”

Su Xian said slowly: "A detective can't be without curiosity, but he must learn to restrain curiosity. Remember this sentence so that you can go further and live ...... Longer! ”
