Chapter 251: Waiting
"Disappearing into thin air again?"
"That's right." Mir's eyes lingered on the edge of the bottle's mouth for a long time: "The direction is consistent." ”
She asked, "Is the bottle facing?" ”
"Yes, the orientation is the same as Carol's." Mir thought about the direction of the bottles in the harbor and said, "The bottles are all pointing in the direction of a point. ”
"It shouldn't be my and Carl's home, it should be in the direction of St. Louis."
Mill continued: "It was a pair of black hands, the hands of a maid. ”
"Is it a slave?"
"Yes, or no."
Mir told Kra, "It's impossible to tell now, but it's certain that the maid made it out of thin air." ”
"So what's next for us?" Kra didn't know how Mir had seen the color of the man's hand, and her attention was all focused on the door.
"Wait, you need to wait quietly."
Mir suddenly remembered a person, it was Paulina, who had never appeared since he had taken Paulina's energy away, and he had only seen Yaheng at night.
Mir fantasized that if the woman in the Kra house was Paulina, it would all make sense.
"Mr. Evan, how are you thinking about it?" Mill turned to ask Gaynor, who was in a daze.
Gaino came back to his senses and said, "I haven't thought about it yet, I don't want to close the door, otherwise I won't make any money." ”
Mir lowered his arms and walked over and said, "Do you know my other title?" Mr. Evan. ”
"What?"
"It's a private investigator."
Gaino frowned slightly: "Private detective? What is that? ”
Mill sat down and explained, "Like a detective, the people who serve are different. ”
"To make money?"
"No, the idea that came up with it to deal with the police station in the French district."
Gaino took a sip, smashed his mouth and said, "Bad idea?" ”
"It's a great idea, a great idea to make money."
Mill smiled: "I am a federal detective, I only serve the Federation, as for other places, I need the identity of a private detective to obtain a good amount of money, before Mr. Thabit disappeared, I had made him my personal adviser, but he disappeared, if you want to follow me, you can temporarily take his place." ”
"I think it's a bit unorthodox to do that, Mr. Edward."
"I don't think so, it's perfectly possible to have two private advisors."
"Chris has run out of money this time, and I'll take care of what he wants next month, even if it's not much, it's the first income." Mir said satisfied: "Next time, I will charge a higher fee, and I can charge a commission according to the difficulty of the case, including known clues and evidence." ”
Gano looked at Mir: "What if the other party has nothing?" There are almost no clues or evidence, and I don't know how difficult the case is. ”
"Hmm... I haven't thought about this at all, and it depends on the situation. ”
Mill thought briefly for a moment and said, "The most important thing now is to investigate the case of Mr. Thabit and her wife, Carol. ”
Gano handed Mir a piece of newspaper and said in a flat tone, "Mr. Edward, look at the headlines in the newspaper, I think your title will be replaced by Inspector Walter." ”
"He's been promoted?" Mill said as he looked at Gano in surprise.
"It's very clear in the newspapers."
Mir read the title and the brief content as she clenched her fists tighter and tighter.
"!! Damn it!! Mir scolded in front of Gaynor, slammed his fist on the table and said, "Stupid dwarf! ”
The general information published in the newspaper is that Walter Rux has successfully become a detective in the French police station because he has captured the real murderer of the murder, Omar Connor, while Chris has become Inspector Walde's assistant.
Despite this, Mir's heart did blossom with joy: "It seems that Chris is moving very fast. ”
Mill knew what Chris was going to face.
Arrogance, arrogance, and unfair treatment, Inspector Ward will pour all the anger in his heart on Chris.
"Dude, I'm kind of sorry for you." Mir muttered.
But Chris had to endure all this, because that guy was Chris boss's man, and he should be a close confidant of his boss.
Mill's fist suddenly loosened: "I really wish Chris would have Inspector Ward arrest him immediately." ”
"Mr. Edward, how did you get this?" Gano asked, seeing the slender scar on Mir's arm.
"It's a long story." Mir shrugged his shoulders and said, "I didn't think the wound wouldn't hurt or bleed anymore. ”
"What the hell is going on?" He asked curiously.
Mir replied, "It's a little thing." ”
Gano reached out and immediately grabbed Mir's left arm, grabbed Mir's wrist tightly, stared straight into Mir's eyes and said, "This doesn't seem like a trivial matter. ”
"You need to tell me, Mr. Edward, that Carl didn't disappear for no reason, did he?" "I think something dangerous must have happened before he disappeared," he speculated, "That's why you hurt your arm." ”
Mir struggled to break free of Gaynor's hand, "No, Mr. Evan, it's not what you think. ”
"Karl himself asked you to come to me so that I could get out of here completely." Gano blinked, nodded inexplicably, and said, "Mr. Edward, there is no need for you to deceive me. ”
"Do you know werewolves?" Mir asked solemnly.
Gano was stunned.
"What?" Gaino laughed, "Werewolf? Are you a werewolf? ”
"Oh my God!" As Gano exclaimed, his demeanor changed instantly, and he said with a blank face, "Mr. Edward, I can remind you that this kind of joke is not funny at all. ”
"Yes, Carl thinks I am, and I need to prove it."
Mir pointed to the wound and said, "That's the best proof of this." ”
"I once read in a book that its eyes would suddenly change color, and a few of its teeth would become pointed, and it would let out bursts of roars instead of the wolf howls." Gaino imitated the howl of a werewolf and said, "It's not the same as the wolf howling on the top of the mountain. ”
"Yes, Mr. Evan, there's a bright moon behind the top of the mountain."
"Yes, that's right, that's it."
Mir looked at Gainau, who was performing very funny, and said with a smile, "I'm not, I'm human." ”
"No, no, no, Mr. Edward." Gaino's gaze fell on Mir's wound again, asking, "When did the scar remain?" ”
"This morning."
"This morning?"
"Oh! Oh, my God! Gaino exclaimed, "Although you are not a werewolf, I can guarantee that you are definitely not a normal person." ”
"What do you mean?" Mir asked, confused.
"I don't understand." Gaino put it another way: "The scars don't heal so quickly, you should know what I mean." ”
Mill nodded: "Of course, I can only prove that I am not a werewolf, because the scars have not healed, and it may be related to my physique." ”
"I don't rule it out."
Gaynor asked, "I wonder what you did to make Carl suspect you?" ”
"Hmm," said Mill after a moment's hesitation, "the senses of sight, hearing, smell, etc., are very sensitive. ”
"What's that?"
Mill shook his head: "I don't know, it's been bothering me for ten years. ”
"Mr. Evan, your heart is beating extremely fast." Mir sniffed his nose and said, "You haven't showered in about a month." ”
Gano glanced at Kra next to Mir and said embarrassedly, "Mr. Edward, I know you have such ability, otherwise you wouldn't be a federal detective." ”
"You don't have to expose my old bottom, including the color of my pants."
"I already know what color it is, and I was about to say it, but you interrupted me."
"I never thought of you as a monster." "It's all the same, it's all the same, we're friends, aren't we?" You won't hurt me. ”
"yes, if we weren't friends, I wouldn't have told you that."
"Maybe that's your talent."
Geno gestured with his hand and said, "For example, the priest, who can magic, and so can witches, or some people with extreme ideas, like Omar..."
Mir frowned, "Wait a minute, Mr. Evan, have you seen the witch you said?" ”
"There's one." He said.
"She's coming to you?"
"It's been a while, come and drink with me."
Mill asked, "What does she look like?" ”
"Her face was covered with a black veil, and she couldn't see it clearly." "The color of the clothes contrasted sharply with the tone of her skin, the clothes were black and the skin was white," he recalled. ”
"Hell!" Mir was amazed, "I've seen her!" ”
"Where?"
"Lafayette One."
Gaynor asked, "Why did she go there?" I remember she told me she had come here to take refuge. ”
"You've been tricked by her, Mr. Evan." "She later met with the priest and it seemed that there was no agreement," said Mir. ”
"What time is it?"
"It's been about four or five days."
Gaino thought for a moment and said, "She came that night, and I was startled the moment I opened the door, and she stood at the door for a while before entering the house. ”
"She had a hat on her head, and it was pressed so low that I couldn't see her face at all." "She never spoke, but dragged her skirt and walked slowly," Gano described. ”
"And then?"
"Until I saw clearly a carriage parked at the door, I shone it with a lamp, and there was no driver driving the carriage at the front of the carriage."
Gaynor's description is the same as that Mir saw that day at Lafayette One, and it is certain that it is the same witch.
"Is there an oil lamp in the carriage?" Mill asked.
"That's right, the light of the oil lamp is very dim, like a human heart, as if it is beating." "When I closed the door, I found her still walking up the stairs, like waiting," Gayno replied. ”
