Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Deceased
The simple little girl was instilled with a lot of black theories such as "a crime that is not seen by the living is not a crime" and "things that do not have current evidence cannot go through the judicial process", and then drove her back to her room to sleep. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Of course, Shak doesn't expect that after such a "morally ruined" education, the pure-hearted Molissa will become as ruthless as himself, but at least he must have some more self-protection skills, such as not having too many psychological barriers when shooting, and not hesitating too much when escaping.
He was even planning to go to Nemo's weapon shop again after dawn tomorrow and pick out a suitable set of magic armor for the little girl.
Sensing the girl's breathing in the room, Shaq dimmed the light and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with a cup of coffee. In the evening, he took advantage of Simon's connections to look up information about the Editsa, and found the woman's file in the death record.
Shak hesitated to tell Ace the news immediately, but for some reason he always felt that this matter was a little strange. With such easy to verify the news, is it necessary for Ace to pay himself 150,000 yuan for this?
And the police files in Morbock City don't necessarily have much authenticity, after all, the corruption from the top down has made these seemingly rigorous procedures full of loopholes.
Maybe we'll have to find that Edith's grave? Shak looked at a small piece of paper in his hand, which was a leaflet about the Bajo Cemetery, where Simon's tomb was, according to Simon.
It's just that this cemetery is extraordinary, with high fees, high-quality services, and huge scale, which also means a tough backstage. Even with Simon's authority, it was impossible to investigate their details at will.
However, if you can't get a detailed list and just pretend to be a family member who sweeps the grave and search inside, it will not be possible to find the tombstone belonging to Editha from the thousands of graves in a short time.
It takes time and connections, but it is what I lack the most at the moment.
After drinking the coffee in the cup, his brain, which was originally a little confused by the influence of alcohol, suddenly cleared up again, looked at his watch, Shak shook his head helplessly, grabbed the coat hanging on the hanger, and he gently pushed the door and walked out.
It's still early, the smog in the air is not heavy, the hustle and bustle of the city is still going on in the streets surrounded by high-rise buildings, the brilliant lights stretch out in the endless long streets, the traffic is still densely shuttled, the pedestrians on the roadside are only slightly less than during the day, and there are more homeless people, beggars and some young people dressed strangely.
A police car was parked on the side of the road, and two policemen were standing by the street lamp with coffee, chatting, and the white vapor from the coffee mixed with the heat of talking and breathing, and dispersed into the gradually rising mist.
Perched all night on the corner of the road, Time's is a human-run eatery that seems to be more popular with food than the high-end restaurants of the Green Nautilus, which cater to the descendants of elves.
This restaurant covers an area of about four or five hundred square meters, the decoration is simple and elegant, the lighting is sufficient, at this time the customers in the store are about eighty percent full, most of them are relatively young men and women, most of them are employees working overtime in nearby companies and factories to relax and rest, most of these people drink coffee; There are also people who don't know where to go on this hazy cold night, and most of these people have wine in front of them, and they pour themselves without saying a word. From time to time, someone pushed the door in, subconsciously patted the unnecessary dust on his body, and ordered something to be packed and taken away in front of the counter.
Shak ordered a set meal, trying to find a place to eat and think about what to do next. At present, there are two cases in hand, but none of them can be successfully investigated. According to a certain detective master, in many critical times, delicious food can increase the inspiration of the caser, but when he turns around with the food, his body can't help but freeze in place.
In the corner of the dining room near the window, an elegant woman sits, wearing a white tennis cap with a stunningly delicate face under the brim, and a book in her hand quietly flipping through it.
A white trench coat is hung on one side of the chair, the warm fleece jacket outlines the perfect figure, the lower body is blue-gray tight trousers, and one slender and straight leg is placed on the other, which looks elegant and natural.
There was a cup of coffee in front of her, which seemed to be cold after staying for a while, but she didn't mind, occasionally putting down her book, taking a sip of coffee, and then smiling and looking out the window at the night scene.
"Linda Sue!"
When the name was called, Xia Ke's heart actually trembled slightly, and he saw that the other party turned his face to him in some surprise, but after a while, the trace of surprise magnified into astonishment.
"It's been a long time, I mean, it's incredible to see you in a place like this......" Shak gently placed the plate in his hand across from the woman, bowing slightly, "Can I sit here?" ”
"When...... Of course, Shak, why are you here, uh, it's been a long time......" The woman named Linda was obviously also surprised, and beckoned Shak to sit down with a little hesitation, but there was a hint of joy in her eyes when she looked at him.
"It's been almost six years, hehe, but you're still so beautiful." Shak reached out to beckon the waiter, looked back at Linda and asked, "Would you like to have a drink together?" After nodding again, he asked for a bottle of Kirzner, and although it was true that six years had passed, he still remembered the other party's taste.
Six years, like a white horse, may only be a moment in the lives of most adults. Maybe I changed my job, maybe I changed my life, maybe I had love, maybe I got married, maybe I didn't change, and I wandered thousands of times between work and family.
But six years seems to have passed a century for Shak, and it can even be said to have turned a cycle of life. At that time, he was young and rebellious, but he was still bathed in light; He had learned to use swords, but he had never tried to pierce the body of a living person with them; At that time, he was already among the best in shooting, but he never broke the head of a living person; At that time, he also fought, and it can be seen that he still felt fear after blood, not his eyes were full of bloodlust like now......
That year, at the age of nineteen, with the aura of genius, he walked for the first time through the doors of the First Military Academy of the Republic of Remis, Kavin.
