Chapter 20: You Don't Dare
Wang Xu returned to his residence, and as soon as he sat there, he began to sigh, but the cat master just glanced at him, and threw out a very accurate evaluation: "It seems that you hooked up with her again." ”
"Hey...... How the hell do you see this......"
The cat master didn't answer, but changed the topic and said, "Put the things in the briefcase there, I'll take the time to handle it." ”
Wang Xu knew that there was no point in asking further, and he said, "Oh, I know, by the way, according to my observation, have you hit a nail in Jack's case recently?" ”
The cat master sighed: "You can also say the same...... In fact, there were many breakthroughs in the case in the early morning of September 30th, in fact, it should be the best time for me to track down Jack's true identity, but unfortunately, the cases that night were discovered immediately after the incident, and there were people nearby before the incident, so I couldn't risk being seen to collect evidence.
As a result, a large amount of useful evidence has been annihilated, and as for the evidence collected by the police, it is not of great significance, at least not enough to solve the case. And now, the Ripper has become famous, he has become a hot gossip star, the name Jack can be found in newspapers all over the world, and everyone is talking about the serial murders near Whitechapel.
A number of forged letters, a few false witnesses, a group of unprofessional journalists, and narrow-minded but showy police officers all surfaced one by one, pushing themselves into the limelight, and in addition to achieving their own clown-like fame, they also played another role in making the truth more and more obscure, creating a lot of fog and difficulties. ”
Wang Xu said: "Oh, you said so much...... Actually, you want to quit, right? ”
"Hmph...... I will not give up easily, the more difficult the case, the more accomplished I will feel when the mystery is revealed. ”
"Hey...... You can keep making trouble, but don't forget, when Jack's incident is over, we will have to leave, do you have a way to go back to the future? ”
The cat master replied casually: "Of course, we only need to find someone, and he will definitely be able to send us back." ”
"Who?" Wang Xu asked.
"It's not time yet, I'll tell you when the time comes."
"Ah...... Again, this kind of ambiguous interpretation......"
…………
Three days later, Young Master Douglas visited again, and he originally thought that everything would go well, but unfortunately Wang Xu's reply to him was so amazing: "I advise you to die of this heart......
Douglas's expression changed abruptly: "What did you say?!" What do you mean by that? ”
Wang Xu held his cheeks and looked to the side in a daze, not bothering to look at the client at all: "Meaning, I think it is very impolite for you to find someone to investigate that young lady, instead of spending this effort, it is better for you to go to the door often, send flowers, find a time to ask her out, and then say the meaningless confession, the expected refusal is withdrawn, everyone is very civilized, no one feels unhappy...... Well...... The door is over there, I wish you a nice day, and I will not send it far. ”
Douglas leaned his face back a little further: "I see...... You must have fallen in love with Miss Eleanor, too, and I should have thought of that! She's so flawless that no man can resist her charms, I should go to a female private investigator! ”
Wang Xu still didn't look at him directly: "I'll tell you something from my heart, I hope to stay away from her, the farther away the better......"
"That's it! You don't have to defend yourself, so be it, Mr. Atkinson, I think I can understand you, and perhaps I will consider what you have just suggested! Farewell. He just left with three points of anger and seven points of frustration.
After a few silences, the cat master spoke: "He is quite reasonable, and the explanation is to cover up ......."
"Do you think I've got a crush on that Eleanor?" Wang Xu asked.
Mao Ye sneered: "You don't have to explain it to me......"
"Hey...... I haven't said anything yet, the sentence I just said is a rhetorical question, whether it is good or not, whether it is good or not! ”
Mao Ye suddenly asked, "What do you think of that woman?" ”
Wang Xu stared at me and said, "If it weren't for my delusion, she would definitely have a little bit of that meaning to me......"
The cat master took a sip of coffee: "I think so too, she is undoubtedly grateful for your meticulous care during that time." ”
Wang Xu continued: "But I always have a very bad premonition, as if I get too close to her, tragedy will happen. ”
The cat master said: "Oh? Is it a hint of the power of domination? ”
"Probably ...... But never before. ”
Master Mao thought for a while and said: "You mentioned to me before, she is very familiar, but even I can't remember where I have seen her, maybe your ominous premonition about her has something to do with this." ”
Wang Xu sighed: "I think we will only know the answer when tragedy happens......
There was an unusually dark smile on the face of the cat master, he knew that Wang Xu meant something else by this, because while he was talking, the doorbell rang, and they didn't need to look to know who was coming.
Mrs. Holderson didn't even knock on the door this time, she just pushed the door and walked in, with an ambiguous expression on her face: "Mr. Atkinson...... A young lady has come to visit you. ”
The corners of Wang Xu's mouth twitched twice: "Please...... Let her in, for she's tired. ”
After Mrs. Halderson left the room, the cat master smiled and said, "It seems that this kraken is entangled with you...... Can I ask if such a beautiful fairy daughter were to be brought to your mouth, what would you eat...... Still don't eat it......"
Wang Xu pretended to reply in a deep voice: "I am not a casual person......"
Master Mao glanced at the ceiling: "Oh...... You don't dare. ”
"Hey! How do you know what's going on in my heart! ”
In the midst of their complaints, Eleanor walked to the door and knocked on it twice.
