Chapter 141: New Clues
The captain's words can be said to make Sean overjoyed, after all, if he just borrowed money, then he would probably need a while to buy the materials of the secret fruit, which still has to be lucky, but now judging from the captain's tone, it seems that there is a sequence 8 gardener's secret fruit on it, and he only needs to pay for it.
Sean looked back at the inexplicably solemn Hunter Guild building behind him, and his heart became more and more relaxed.
Now that the matter of the secret fruit has already frowned, what he has to do now is to wait patiently for someone from above to investigate.
The first is that the captain has reported that he has comprehended the deduction method, and the second is that although the secret fruit is purchased with the captain's contribution, the above will examine whether he has really reached the level to be promoted.
In the words of the captain, he has been taking the secret fruit for less than a week now, but he is about to advance so quickly, and he has also comprehended the deduction method by himself, and he is very interested in him.
It would be impossible to say that he wasn't nervous, but at this point, he felt that as long as he hid the blasphemous emblem, there wouldn't be much of a problem.
In this way, he soon came to "Jessica's cabin" again, Jessica was still doing combat training day after day, and when she saw Sean arrive, she first said hello, and then threw a set of fighting clothes to him.
"Do you want a round?"
After Jessica's tempering, the current Sean can already play well with Jessica, which is not only due to Locke's magic potion, but also because Jessica has honed him seriously and never released water.
However, today's Sean had no intention of continuing training, but handed the previous telegram to the other party: "Sister, do me a favor?" ”
Jessica was stunned for a moment, wiped her sweat with the cloth towel on her shoulder, and picked up the report and read it.
After a while, she was surprised: "It's her?" ”
Sean's heart moved, and he hurriedly said, "Sister, do you know her?" ”
"Uh......" Jessica hesitated and shook her head, "I don't know her well, but we had a few words with Martin when we went to Red Shark for a drink together?" ”
"Lawyer Martin?"
"Yes, you know, Martin is a big drinker and a gambler, and the bars are where he hangs out a lot."
As she spoke, she seemed to think of something, patted her head and said, "Oh yes, I almost forgot, this woman is not only a frequent customer of the Red Shark Bar, she is said to have a close relationship with the president of the Sea Dragon Society, and may be someone's secret lover." ”
Sean was stunned, touched his chin and pondered, "In this case, Bernice is probably not as simple as it seems." ”
"That's for sure." Jessica rolled her eyes, "Don't look at this woman in a trench coat on weekdays, she looks vigorous, that's because you didn't go to the Red Shark Bar, good guy, as long as it's there, she's a bewitching and shameless person, no worse than those street girls." ”
Sean was speechless and choked for a while before he wondered, "Then according to what you say, do you think she will be the kind of person who has a loan?" ”
"Loans?" Jessica was stunned, shook her head directly, and said: "That's impossible, not to mention her relationship with the president of the Sea Dragon Society, if she really needs money, there will definitely be a lot of rich businessmen and sons who will send money to the door." ”
As she spoke, she pouted and said, "After all, if nothing else, her figure is indeed hot enough, which is very attractive to you stinky men." ”
Sean touched his nose in embarrassment, not knowing what to refute for a while.
Jessica didn't seem to be making fun of Sean about it, and squinted at Sean and said, "Say, what do you want me to do for you?" ”
Sean pondered for a moment and smiled: "It's actually very simple, I want you to follow her and then ......"
Sean's voice suddenly lowered, and he whispered.
Jessica was stunned for a while, and it took a long time before she covered her face speechlessly and raised her middle finger to Sean, looking like you don't say I know you.
Sean could only smile awkwardly.
......
......
The next day.
Soon it was time to make an appointment with Bernice Parra, and Sean arrived at the Detective Communicators Association early, sipping a cup of coffee with a silver coin while waiting for Bernice Parra's arrival.
The clock had barely struck ten o'clock, and Bernice Parra sat down in front of Sean with her black boots on time.
"Is the money ready?"
Bernice Parra's voice was as decisive as her demeanor, and she sat down without saying a word and went straight to the point.
Sean smiled slightly: "Don't worry, I met a lady just now, she said that she also found a black cat, through the description and comparison, I think the possibility is not low, so please wait a moment." ”
Bernice Parra's face changed slightly, but she didn't say anything, but snorted, silently clasping her arms without saying a word.
Sean was not in a hurry, so he silently drank the coffee in the cup.
In a few moments, Jessica came over dressed in a gorgeous costume and sat in the middle of the two.
Bernice Parra looked Jessica up and down, snorted, and twisted her head.
Jessica pursed her lips secretly, her eyes looked at Sean and said, "Sir, I did stumble upon a black cat, but I don't know if it's the one you're looking for." ”
Sean put down the coffee cup and smiled: "Beautiful lady, don't worry, as long as the news is accurate, I will definitely give you the honorarium immediately." ”
"No, no, no!" Jessica hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Sir, you misunderstood, I am not short of money, I don't want your honorarium, I only hope that if I help you, you can agree to my request." ”
"Request?"
Sean frowned, and shouted in his heart: "Sister, we didn't say that before!" ”
Jessica blinked, her eyes suddenly reddened, and said, "To be honest, I used to have a younger brother, although he has passed away for a long time, but I have always missed him, until I saw you that day, I realized that you and my brother are so similar, so, if I can, can I have a chance to have dinner with you?" ”
Sean: "......."
Bernice Parra, on the other hand, twitched the corners of her mouth, resisting the urge to get up and leave immediately, and took a sip of coffee from the cup on the table.
Sean was also confused by Jessica's sudden non-compliance with the script's lines, and after a while, he was a little flustered and said, "This ...... It's not appropriate, right? ”
Jessica's eyes were anxious, and she hurriedly said: "Sir, let me tell you the truth, the black cat I saw has a pair of blood-red eyes, which is particularly terrifying, and it ......"
"It can't be!"
Before Jessica's words were finished, Bernice Parra, who was drinking coffee on the side, couldn't help but say, "That black cat has obviously been locked up......"
The sound stopped abruptly.
She seemed to realize that she had said the wrong thing, and said in a panic, "I mean, there can't be a black cat with blood-red eyes. ”
