Chapter 12: The Only Way to Stop Her

Wang picked up the keys to the motorcycle on the table, and Joan was waiting for her downstairs, and the little girl was so anxious that she couldn't even take care of dinner, and when she was about to go out, the professor reached out and stopped her.

"Don't go." The professor's face was a little dark, and he didn't have the smile he used to have, Wang Xizhi didn't want to pay attention to him, and turned around to bypass him, but the professor said again in a deep voice: "Stop." ”

Wang sensed that the professor was abnormal, she raised her eyes to stare at him, confirmed that the professor was serious, and then returned to the edge of the bookshelf, looking for something, and asked, "What do you know?" ”

"You don't have to worry about that, anyway, ma'am, don't get into trouble." The professor took out a pocket watch from his bosom and looked at it, and when he looked up, he saw the lady open her trench coat and attach a strap to her waist.

"King!" He whispered coldly, "Why are you so stubborn sometimes that it's a headache?" ”

"I don't have much left." Wang put on motorcycle gloves, closed his windbreaker, straightened his collar, and said lightly: "So the rest of the things will not be abandoned, even if it is a bad temper." ”

"Do you really think you can do anything?" The professor took a deep breath and patiently persuaded him. "You're just an ordinary woman, at most it's a little special, a little luckier, didn't Darkmond teach you a lesson? Didn't the last murder teach you a lesson? ”

"Lanchester, you're in a hurry." She turned and left, "The things you will know, the property of that young lady's family, undoubtedly have something to do with what I care about. ”

"You still don't understand." The professor placed his cane by the door, loosening the button at the collar so that he could stretch out in his shirt. "Even if you were there that day, you could only accompany that poor little girl to die."

"What do you say......" Wang's voice grew cold, and before he could finish speaking, Lanchester held her down with his left hand, and punched her in the abdomen with his right hand, directly interrupting all the disagreements and quarrels that followed.

"You ......" the lady fell to her knees, and was gently held up by the professor, who reached out and picked her up, and called out to Adams, who was talking to Joan downstairs, "Adams! The lady fainted suddenly, and you can send the lady back. ”

Adams was startled, rushed up in three steps and two steps, and asked, "Good manner, how could the lady suddenly faint?" Do you have a fever? ”

"Maybe she's too tired or has low blood sugar, and the lady is a little anemic, so I'll send her back to the room." The professor said.

Adams would not have suspected that the professor had done something to the lady, even if it was strange. The professor saw him holding the car keys, his face full of anxiety, and said, "Be careful when driving." ”

"Don't worry, Professor, I've learned my lesson." Adams smiled embarrassedly, looked at the unconscious lady, and said, "Madam, please professor." ”

Ki is in the room now, unaware of everything that happened.

In the middle of the night, the lady was woken up by hunger, and when she got up, her stomach still hurt a little, and she couldn't use her strength, and the pain made her remember the sharp pain before she lost consciousness, and she sat up with her stomach in her hands, and stood up with difficulty.

That bastard...... She took a deep breath, took out the mobile phone from her pocket, couldn't turn it on, it was already out of power and automatically turned off, so she had to pull on the bedside lamp, and saw that the hand on the watch on her left hand was 2:26, apparently early in the morning, she charged the phone, and the matter was a foregone conclusion She didn't want to go to the professor to settle accounts for the time being, but went downstairs to find food.

The kitchen light was on, and the professor was sitting at the table drinking red wine before he slept, and he rarely stayed up so late. Seeing that the lady was holding on to the door frame and looking at him with an angry face, the professor put his index finger on her lips and she found that Adams was also behind her, and Ji should have rested.

"Ma'am, are you awake?" Adams greeted with a smile, and seeing that her face was not good, he came over to help her, "Why did you suddenly faint, is it low blood sugar?" Would you like a bowl of soup and some mac and cheese? ”

The king refused his support, and at last he was relieved, and the professor had risen to serve a bowl for Adams when he had gone to pay her courtesy, and placed it in the farthest position from him on the side, and the acquaintance did not touch her at this time.

The king sat down in a fit of rage, and was indeed very hungry, so he concentrated on eating, and Adams mentioned to her by the way: "Fortunately, Madam, you couldn't go to see that young lady, her house is really a mess, and I have just returned." ”

"Chaos?" The lady asked.

"Of course, it's not that the room is messy, it's that the relationship and people are too messy, and I met the police, which has dragged on until now, and poor Joan has a low-grade fever to deal with those relatives." Adams also raised his glass and took a sip of red wine to help him sleep, but in fact he was tired enough. "Ma'am, do you know that company? How could you say something like that during the day? ”

"I know that person because of my past work, and I checked it on the Internet today, and the victim is really an arms dealer." The lady said, but did not mean to continue, but said, "In short, you are not suitable for this commission." ”

Adams looked at her in amazement, she was still very attentive during the day! The professor shook his glass and smiled silently.

"Have you ever thought about who she is and who you are?" The lady asked, but Adams apparently didn't listen, "My home is my home, I am me." ”

"You think so, but others don't necessarily think so. And, assuming that this is really a homicide and not an accident, you have to know that the murderer is most likely not something that a half-detective office can solve, unlike the last time Hasen's case, which only involved property inheritance. This is an armament, and it will be related to political positions. You know Bruno Simmons, that's ......"

"I understand that the lady is worried about me." Adams said. "But Madam wants to help Joan, and I want too, Madam, you are too careful to protect us. So I promise you, I'll do what I can, okay? ”

Complicated things are involved, even so-called justice, and Adams can't be allowed to risk his own family, it's true that he is the second ancestor, but he is already very nonsense, and he can't bring more trouble and danger to his relatives at home.

"I'm glad you listened to me, Adams." The king was visibly relieved, but Adams asked her, "What about you, ma'am?" ”

"What?"

"I can see that the lady cares about something, but does the lady do what she can when she advises me?" Adams said. "I'm not trying to hit you, I'm just going to say that you can tell us about your troubles, whether it's me, the professor, or even Ji, they will help you."

Originally, Wang thought that the young master had become the professor's lobbyist, but the professor's expression did not look like it, and she said softly: "I understand, thank you, Adams, if I need help one day, I will ask you for help." ”

Of course, what she said was just kind words, some roads needed her to walk alone, and they couldn't be affected, and the call for help at that time might be a death invitation.

At the end of the supper, they turned off the lights and went upstairs, Adams was on the third floor, so he separated from them first, and when he reached the fourth floor, the king made a difficulty, and the suppressed anger rushed up again, grabbed the professor's collar, and asked in a low voice: "How dare you sneak attack me?!" Is this your gentlemanly demeanor?! ”

The professor raised his hands in surrender and said, "Obviously, this was the only way to stop you from going out at that time, and I didn't have the tools, so I could only use the most primitive method, I'm really sorry, ma'am." ”

"Your blocking doesn't change the outcome, even if you stop me today, I'll go to her tomorrow......" she said here, a little understood, Lanchester wasn't going to do useless work.

Unless she won't see the little girl again tomorrow.
