"Then did you ask who gave it to him?!"
"Yes, he mentioned that he was a businessman." Mrs. Dunlop recalled: "You must have heard that there was a great deal of trade between the island of Fais and the mainland, and the merchants who came and went were not strange at the time, and some merchants did bring strange things and claimed to eat them, but it was just their pranks!" That's why I didn't care about it at the time. ”
Mrs. Dunlop sighed again.
Xiaoyou held her breath and concentrated, constantly sorting out what the old lady said in her heart.
But the more she thought about it, the more mysterious she felt, and after a certain thought unintentionally flashed through her mind, she suddenly asked the old lady: "Madam, do you know that the mayor is back?!" ”
Dunlop was overwhelmed by her, "Mayor Mare? You're talking about Mayor Pei?!!! ”
She slowly stood up and looked at Xiao You's equally surprised face in disbelief.
"Yes, he's back with us!" Xiao Yu thought that Mr. Pea did not tell everyone his address, and thought that Mrs. Dunlop must know.
So it's right to ask her.
Mrs. Dunlop was stunned for a long time, "Mayor Pei, he... He's back? But why didn't he announce his return? ”
"Do you know where he lives?"
Xiao Yu revealed his thoughts to Mrs. Dunlop without reservation.
"Although Uncle Singh's matter is over, and I can't help you much, what you said may be related to the mystery of Fais Island, so I have some ideas, if I can solve the problem on the island, maybe Uncle Singh's case will be solved, so I hope you can take me to Mayor Pei's house."
Dunlop hesitated for a moment about Xiaoyou's words, and after feeling that there was some truth, he nodded and agreed, "Yes, by the way, I also want to meet him." ”

It's past noon, and the Perfect Bazaar is still as lively as ever, with people walking around the town and laughing and laughing.
The two of them, who were nervous at the moment, were a little out of touch with the harmonious picture, and after a few corners, Mrs. Dunlop finally stopped in front of a more secluded cottage.
This is worthy of the place where the mayor lives, there is a small garden in front of the door, similar to that of the Marseille tribe, and there are no other residents around it except for garden-like plants, and the doors of the houses are closed, and there is a feeling of rejection.
With a puzzled look, Mrs. Dunlop walked into the garden unhurriedly, and after a soft knock on the door, a familiar middle-aged woman opened the door in surprise.
She glanced at Xiaoyou first, then at the old lady, "Mrs. Dunlop?" ”
Xiao Yu recognized that this was Aunt Simon, who had originally followed Mr. Pea at the entrance of the town and during the prayer ceremony, only to hear a magnetic male voice coming from inside the door.
"Who?"
Simon didn't open the door, but turned his head and responded to the man inside, "Mrs. Dunlop, and the girl." ”
For some reason, Simon's behavior always feels very cautious.
The male voice did not respond, and in less than five seconds, he hurried to the door and happily welcomed the two in.
"Mr. Pea."
For the uncle who appeared in front of him, Xiaoyou was both surprised and reasonable.
Sure enough, the mayor was really him.
"Go in first! I'll talk about that later. He whispered softly.
After welcoming the two people outside the door, he immediately closed the door neatly.
Xiaoyou casually glanced at Aunt Simon, and Simon smiled at her awkwardly.
Walking into the living room, she found that there were many old people sitting around the dining table at this moment, as if discussing something, including Mr. Pea's wife, Mrs. Pei.
Mr. Pea's home is not small, although as the mayor of the town, he does not decorate his home too much.
The simple sofa, with the murals on the wall, the trivial decorations are numerous but neat, full of a sense of history.
The fireplace is warm, and although the scene is a bit rigorous, it is also warm.
