"Photos?"

Following Qin Ran's gaze, Mier saw the photo frame that fell to the ground.

At this time, the glass-faced photo frame had already been shattered by the rough intruder before, and Qin Ran carefully shook off the broken glass and picked it up.

The photo is of Smith himself.

Each other and his colleagues in firefighting suits stand in the sun.

Unlike the profile photo that Qin Ran had seen just now, Smith's face was no longer expressionless, but a little smile appeared.

If you don't look at it carefully, you can't see it at all.

Similarly, if you don't hold the photo in your hand and look at it carefully, you won't be able to find that the photo has a mezzanine.

Or more accurately, a piece of paper like the photograph paper is perfectly attached to the photograph.

Qin Ran carefully peeled it off, but Mi'er on the side couldn't help but ask, "How did you find out?" ”

It's not like Meel hasn't searched the room.

In fact, after discovering that Qin Ran was missing, Mier immediately checked the identity of the attacker and searched the entire room.

But she got nothing.

Even, her gaze swept over the floor-to-ceiling photo frame several times, but she didn't find anything.

If she could pick up the frame, Meel would be sure to notice the difference, but it wasn't the time to make excuses for herself.

She is not as good as Qin Ran.

It's a fact.

But in the face of such facts, the girl counselor was not the slightest bit discouraged.

On the contrary, she was very happy.

After all, this was the same as the witcher she imagined.

"You're just not thinking the right way."

"Obviously, Smith knew he was involved in something extraordinary, and it was only a matter of time before something happened."

"And he?"

"I don't want to be caught just like that."

"Therefore, there is a clue of 'double insurance': he will deliberately guide the person who captured him to come here, and let the other party complete his arrangement."

Qin Ran replied while peeling off the photo paper.

"Bootstrapping?"

Meer's beautiful apricot eyes narrowed, and more thought appeared in her eyes.

"Hmm."

"I don't know what that stolen thing is, but I know that something that a person carries with him, and it doesn't seem obtrusive, and it doesn't seem too big if it's not discovered in the first place."

"Wallets, watches, rings, whatever, it's all in this range."

So, if Smith wants to complete this layout, be sure to limit the clues he left behind to that range, such as ...... inside the bedside table. ”

"Naturally, the Bloodline didn't find anything."

"Disappointment brings anger, and there is a 90% chance that the bloodline will destroy the bedside table, and naturally, including the photo above."

"And as long as you notice his disappearance, when you come here, you will definitely check everything carefully, especially these things that are different from the original."

Qin Ran nodded.

Then, with a more careful movement, he peeled off the last sticky photo paper.

Syllable!

When the two pieces of photo paper separated, there was a crisp sound, and Qin Ran's gaze swept over the hidden words inside, and put it in his pocket a moment before Mier's gaze came.

For Qin Ran's actions, Mier was stunned.

Qin Ran, on the other hand, didn't look at Mi'er, his gaze looked at the corridor outside the room.

"I think we can exchange important information."

Qin Ran said.

"Of course."

In response, Will, dressed in a trench coat and polite, with a cane in his hand, walked in.

"Will?"

Meel reacted quickly.

Qin Ran's detailed explanations just now were not to tell her again, but to Will, her grandfather.

This sense of disparity made Meel a little annoyed.

She first cast a dissatisfied glance at Qin Ran, and then, when she found that Qin Ran didn't pay attention to her at all, she immediately glared at her grandfather again.

Unfortunately, Will didn't look at his granddaughter either.

This old police adviser focused all his attention on Qin Ran.

Dangerous man!

Will once again defined Qin Ran.

When he first saw Qin Ran freeze Odeka last night, Will gave such a definition, but since Odeka was an out-and-out bastard, Will didn't pay attention to it at all.

But his granddaughter is different.

When Will learned that his granddaughter was having lunch with the dangerous man in front of him, he rushed out directly.

He cautiously approached here, hoping to get more information about Qin Ran from the side.

It's a pity that his caution was useless at all.

Will could clearly perceive that as he walked into the apartment, a sense of oppression came from the rooftop.

Then, as he stepped into the hallway, the sense of oppression became clear.

And, with you.

He knew he had been discovered.

After that, Qin Ran's words made him understand what Qin Ran wanted to do.

Exchange information!

As for those words, Qin Ran said them to Mi'er?

Will didn't believe that a man who refused to talk to him would look the other way on his granddaughter, even if he was good-looking.

That kind of person will not be deceived by beauty.

Under Meer's gaze, Qin Ran and Will walked to the center of the room.

"What do you want to know?"

Will asked.

"Everything you know."

Qin Ran replied.

"Impossible."

"An unknown message, how can it be exchanged for all."

Facing Qin Ran's lion mouth, Will immediately shook his head and refused.

"If this unknown news can bring that thing, of course it can be exchanged for everything!"

Qin Ran emphasized.

"But I'm guessing it's more of a rescue message."

"Smith, he wants to be alive."

Will

"yes."

"Smith wants to live, so he should be paid something, shouldn't he?"

Qin Ran nodded and showed a smile.

Rewarded!

Will was stunned, and his face changed slightly.

He's thinking about the possibilities.

Then, I found that just as Qin Ran said, if Smith really wanted to live, then he would inevitably throw out a very tempting . Confused chips will do.

Otherwise, no one would take the risk.

Even if it's him......

There are many things to think about.

Because, he is not alone.

After glancing at Meel, Will finally gritted his teeth.

He nodded.

"I can tell you everything."

"You also need to tell me everything you know."

"But ......"

"You'll need to help me deal with this particular incident, and of course, I'll pay you what you want."

Will said.

And with Will's words, side quest prompts began to appear in front of Qin Ran's eyes.

[Trigger Side Quest: Will's Help]

[Will's request for help: As a veteran adviser to the police, Will has dealt with too many things that are difficult for ordinary people to touch, he has long been experienced, but the recent incident in Edexx has made this veteran anxious, he needs a reliable helper, and you appear in his field of vision! 】

"Yes."

Faced with side quests and necessary information, Qin Ran naturally would not refuse, even if there was no corresponding evaluation, but more stay time was a pretty good reward.

Especially on the premise that 'Wu' is completely lost.

"Something strange happened about two weeks ago......"
