"What is this?"

Dean looked at the parchment roll in his hand, a little surprised.

Under the man's sleeve, an inner pocket was sewn and the opening of the pocket was sealed with a button.

The parchment roll was taken out of it by Dean.

It was a very rudimentary map, somewhat like the small lake where the scarecrow used to be, and on top of the map, there was a string of random numbers.

"It looks a bit like a treasure map, and by the way, I remember that this mountain was a cowboy and there was a group of bandits who seemed to like hoarding gold."

Dean's eyes lit up and he put the parchment in place.

This is a reward for his kindness for a while, anyway, whether it is useful or not, at least it is interesting.

Because of the discovery of the parchment roll.

Dean searched the cave briefly and found a bag of loose dollar bills, which added up to more than $10,000.

Mobile phones, video recorders, watches, etc., a whole bunch.

But most of these things have no power, only a pink video recorder, which turns on when you press it.

Dean suspects that this VCR is the stuff of the girl on stage.

"I don't know if there's a clue to the treasure map in there."

He first called Massa and asked him to come over, and then, with some anticipation, he took the VCR in his hand and played it.

Moment.

He removed the memory card from the VCR, crushed it, and threw the VCR back into the rest of the electronics.

There's not much in it.

But it also made Dean figure out what was going on.

The girl's father, who went into the mountains to hunt for treasure, did not return all night, and the girl was worried, so he drove over with a gun, and at the same time she was also looking forward to shooting prey on the road.

Yes.

The young girl on the stage is the crappy hunter that Dean and the others found in front of them.

There is no follow-up in the footage.

But the end is in sight.

"What a sinful land."

Dean finds himself a little sentimental today.

He flicked his face with his hands, walked over to the air hole, silently lit a cigarette, and waited for Massa to meet.

It's getting dark.

Around five o'clock in the afternoon, Massa rushed over with a smile: "I'm glad you're okay, Dean, we've both made a fortune." ”

Dean pointed to the hole, "There's some loose money in here, if you can, help me bury the father and daughter on the stage." ”

"There are victims here too?" Massa walked in curiously, and then exclaimed, "FK, this thing scared me to death." ”

He was first shocked and then delighted, and ran out with two face suits on the ground: "I'm still worried that you have damaged these two clothes." ”

"Valuable?"

"Yes, the skinning brothers slaughtered at least forty or fifty people to make these two ghost things, you see, from childhood to adulthood, from male to female faces can be found, if you take it out and sell it, the price is less than half a million dollars, I will directly let them get out!"

"Don't you need to turn it in as evidence?"

Massa smiled disdainfully: "To hell with the evidence, Dean, you don't know how messy the water is here, if we hand over these things, these things will appear on the black market the next day, it is better to just let us sell them, and not to cheapen those bastards." ”

Dean shook his head: "But I'm going to burn it, including those few scarecrows, all of them!" ”

"Man, I heard you right." When Massa heard this, his voice was raised: "These things, if we add the tools in the cave, we can get at least millions of extra dollars, which is millions of dollars!" ”

in front of interests.

Massa was a little anxious: "If you're worried about the mission, we don't have to pay attention to those damn things at all, we risked killing the skinning brothers, and the souls of the tragically dead can rest in peace, and these things are the spoils we deserve, you shouldn't have the idea of wasting them!" ”

Dean looked at Massa's eyes with a cold look, and said seriously: "I said, all the corpses are burned!" ”

Massa swears.

When he was seriously solidified by Dean, it was like a wolf standing up, staring at his throat with a fierce gaze.

As long as he dares to say a word.

The wolf will rush up and bite his throat without hesitation!

He lowered his head, not daring to continue to look at Dean, and whispered, "Dean, I know that you killed the skinning brothers, but I am short of money." ”

"Reason."

"My daughter has leukemia, and I spend hundreds of thousands of dollars a year to maintain her normal life!"

Dean was silent for a moment and patted Massa on the shoulder: "I understand you, but if you have a choice, there is no need to make such money, you can take those tools away, and then deal with everything here, and then give me two million dollars." ”

"Dean.."

Dean waved his hand and turned to leave.

Night falls.

Harry put on a hot rock DJ and parked his car in front of Dean: "Wow, Dean, didn't you go to the FBI for training, how did you come to such a remote place?" ”

"It's over, so get ready to go home."

"So fast?" Harry's face was worried: "Man, don't tell me, you're eliminated, I've heard that those bitches raise things, and they like to do these things the most." ”

Dean just wanted to reply, but noticed Harry's lower body, and couldn't help but show a strange look: "I'm fine, I've completed the training, but I guess you're in trouble." ”

Harry followed Dean's gaze and let out a scream, "FK, I was about to play Santa Claus Elk Ride with my girlfriend when I got a call from you and I forgot her at home!" ”

This kid is very fancy, and he is wearing a pair of elk pants on his lower body.

He took out his mobile phone in a panic and found that there were more than 30 missed calls and more than 50 unread messages on it!

Harry, who had been listening to the song all the way, didn't notice any of this.

Seeing this, Dean gloated and laughed, and his originally gloomy mood returned to normal.

Back to the city.

Dean said goodbye to Harry, who had a bitter face, first went to buy a new set of clothes to change into, and sprayed some perfume on his body to hide the possible odor before returning home.

Home.

Mom, Sheila, was cuddling Sinclair to watch a soap opera.

Meet Dean.

She pinched Sinclair's cheek: "Baby, I'm not mistaken, this handsome man in front of you is really your second brother?" ”

Sinclair's eyes also lit up: "Wow, Dean, you're so handsome in a formal suit, like a Hollywood star!" When I graduate, can you come and be my dance partner, I'm sure I'll be the queen of the night! ”

"I love your compliments, but don't you want to give me a hug when you see me back?" , Dean opened his hands and pretended to be aggrieved.

What a commotion.

Mother Sheila was a little worried: "Dean, didn't you say that you would go out to train for a while, why did you leave this morning and come back in the evening?" ”

Dean sighed: "Mom, I don't want to do this either, but I stayed there, putting too much pressure on other people, and for the sake of other people's physical and mental health, the instructor had to let me come back, by the way, what about Thompson?" ”

Thompson likes to study the odd stuff in his spare time.

He was going to show him the parchment.

"The date went." Sheila pursed her lips and said with some grievances: "I feel that the day when you will leave me is getting closer and closer." ”

"Don't do that, Mom." Sinclair patted his forehead and said speechlessly: "Thompson quarreled with my mother for the first time today because of my girlfriend, and I finally coaxed my mother to get right." ”

Boy.

Dean chuckled.

Sure enough, the problem of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is innate, regardless of country and race.

However, looking at Sheila, who has always been strong, with a sentimental appearance, Dean still hugged her and comforted: "Mom, don't worry, when Thompson comes back, I will help you teach him a lesson!" ”

accompanied the two to watch TV for a while.

Dean returned to his room, ready to step up.

"Panel!"

【Detective Panel】

Role: Dean

Level: 13 (300/2400)

Spirit: 13

Strength: 14

Speed: 15 (Extreme)

Stamina: 10

Skills: Pistol Mastery, Ancient Muay Thai Mastery, Akaz School - Mind Reading L2, Trace Tracing L1, slightly (click on).

Property points: 1

Skill Points: 1

Completed Cases: 11, Detailed.

Dean, who has 13 points of spiritual value, is no longer what it used to be.

It's just a matter of learning and practicing.

The skill of trace tracking has already entered the door.

Of course, Massa's teaching is also very important.

[Trace Tracing L1: After learning and practice, your observation ability has been significantly improved, and you can quickly find the uncoordinated traces in your field of vision, but your understanding and experience of object changes are still very lacking, and you can't get too many clues from the traces]

Got the panel for a while too.

Dean has discovered that there is a big difference between skills and skills.

One is a skill like a pistol that is more of a physical memory-oriented skill.

After this kind of mastery, they often rely on their own hard training, do not need skill points, and can also progress quickly, at least to L3 level.

Dean's rifle, for example, has already reached L1.

This is also the reason why he practiced alone and did not have a famous teacher to teach.

One is skills like mind reading and trace tracing, which are more empirical and knowledge-oriented.

This skill, after the Dean spirit is improved to 13 points, it is not difficult to get started, but if you want to continue to improve, you must spend a lot of time to practice, research and learn.

For this type of skill.

Dean prefers to trade skill points for quick wins.

Another is ancient Muay Thai, a skill that will strengthen the body in some way.

This kind of Dean is not considered for the time being.

Melee combat is only to make up for weaknesses.

Enemies that can be dealt with with guns.

Dean rarely chooses hand-to-hand combat.

Trace Tracing, which belongs to the second skill type.

Self-learning and improvement requires a lot of time and energy, but it is very helpful to solve crimes.

So Dean didn't bother either.

Added skill points to trace traces.

It's not as good as mind reading, it only needs a little skill point, and it can be upgraded directly.

Skill points disappear.

A large number of objects will appear in different states of experience and knowledge in different environments and times, and they will be instilled and fused.

Wait until Dean has digested it thoroughly.

He found that when he saw something, in addition to being more layered and three-dimensional, every time he saw something, his brain would subconsciously analyze what the thing had experienced, the owner's usage habits, and the frequency of the thing's use.

It's a wonderful feeling, and it's also very troublesome.

Just think about it.

One day, when you are interested in learning skills with others, you end up with some professional words about depth, wear, and tightness in your head.

To spoil or not to spoil?

Fortunately, with the help of the fused memory, Dean regained the initiative of his mind after a few attempts, and was no longer affected by subconscious memories.

After adding skills, there are only attribute points left.

Chase through the mountains.

Dean is increasingly aware that endurance has become his shortcoming.

At present, 13 points of spirit are enough for the time being.

So this attribute point, Dean did not hesitate, and directly added it to endurance.

Reinforcement ends.

The endurance of 11 points made Dean feel a lot more relaxed, as if his sports car had finally been replaced with a motor that could barely match.

All in all, not bad.

Nine o'clock in the evening.

Dean, who was well-fed and drunk, sat lazily on the sofa, enjoying the leisurely time watching the show with his family.

Smack.

The door was pushed open.

The three of them looked and saw Thompson holding a backpack and hiding his face and returning.

"Haha, Thompson, are you playing with performance art?" , Sinclair scoffed.

Sheila also covered her mouth and smiled, "Baby, it doesn't have to be like this, I have forgiven you for arguing with me because of a woman." ”

Dean glanced at it, but knew what happened to Thompson, and said with a smile: "Little brother, there was a fight today?" ”

"Dean, how do you see that?" Thompson put down his backpack in surprise, revealing his bruised and swollen face.

"Man, you're standing in front of the best Dean Detective in Los Angeles!" , Dean shamelessly boasted, and then seduced: "I don't know what you've been through, but if you can do me a favor, I'll teach you how to get back on the field!" ”

"Just like the pickled girls before it?"

"It works better than that!"

"Deal!"

The two brothers hooked their shoulders and went upstairs.

Looking at the backs of the two, Sheila had relief on her face: "Sinclair, Thompson has also begun to learn to fight, he has really grown up." ”

"Cut, he lost, Dean and Baker have never fought before, and now there are various versions of the legend of the two of them circulating in the school"

Mother and daughter began to gossip about Dean and Big Brother Baker's previous school affairs.

As for Thompson being beaten?

It's just an embellishment of adolescence

Just don't take a gun.

No fuss.

Upstairs.

Thompson grinned as he finished smearing the potion, and thought about it with his parchment.

Dean felt that this was not something that could be solved in a moment and a half, and was ready to leave first.

As a result, the person just turned around.

I heard Thompson say confidently, "Okay, Dean, I already know what's up there." ”

"So fast?" Dean was a little surprised.

On the parchment roll, there is only a string of inexplicable numbers!

Thompson's face was slightly proud: "Dean, this is just an encryption method of the alphabet code, numbers are the key, and you still lack a door." ”

"Door?"

"Yes, it's similar to the corresponding book, or some text information, and then apply these numbers to those information books, and you can get the secret that the treasure owner wants to tell you."

Thompson said with some disgust: "This thing, more than a hundred years ago, was quite advanced, but now, when I was nine years old, I stopped playing, it was too easy to crack." ”

He thought that what Dean had in his hands was just a distressed decryption treasure toy.

Dean shrugged, "Okay, but I'm a real treasure map, if you can help me decipher it, I can give you a little bit of the treasure when I find it." ”

Thompson agreed, skeptically, "Well, you'll need to tell me the backstory about this treasure map."

Because in order to facilitate the decipherment of posterity.

The owner of the treasure usually chooses some books related to the treasure as the door!

Of course, some of the treasure maps of family inheritance, the door is known only to them. ”

"This treasure is involved", Dean concealed the origin of the parchment scroll, and simply told the legend of the robbers in the Hagar Mountains.

"Wow, the treasure of the bandits of the Cowboy Age?" Thompson took on the role and couldn't wait to sit down at the computer desk: "I seem to have heard stories about Los Angeles in an online chat room dedicated to the history of Los Angeles before. ”

Moment.

Thompson exclaimed, "Dean, come here, look what this is!" ”

Dean took a closer look.

On it, there is a parchment roll that is similar to the style of the parchment roll in his hand, but the map and numbers are different!

How many copies of this thing are there?

On the top of the picture, a line of enlarged and bold font was also deliberately added: "The Biography of Duke Tulip".

"Dean, this must be the door, I have this book!"

Thompson excitedly rushed to his bookshelf.

Dean touched his chin thoughtfully.

Things seem to be getting interesting.

A flurry of rummaging.

Thompson finally found the dusty biography of Duke Tulip from the very bottom of the shelf.

The two brothers gathered under the lamp and began to decipher the secrets.
