Chapter 252: One More Bottle
"Is she waiting for someone?" Mir didn't feel like her arrival was some kind of unintentional move.
"I don't know, she just left after a few small talks with me."
"What did she ask you?"
Gaino's eyes glanced to the side and said, "Nothing's fine. ”
"No, Mr. Evan, you need to tell me."
"She won't let me tell anyone."
"Are you scared? Or is she trying to murder you? ”
"Maybe, I don't know what to say."
"She only told me to keep my mouth shut, and she didn't say anything but a little bit of her identity," Gainor said. ”
Mir still didn't believe Gainor's words, believing that Gano must be helping the witch hide something.
If the witch wanted to harm Gaynor, Father Cavendish should be the first to intervene, and the priest's presence at least made the witch and the heretic jealous, and they would not dare to kill anyone in New Orleans.
Unless the priest is gone, they will not show their true colors.
"Do you have anything to eat here?" Mir heard her stomach growling.
"Yes, I don't know if you like it or not, it's Spanish food." "If you don't mind," Gaenor said. ”
Mir looked at Kra and asked, "Do you like Spanish food?" ”
"I haven't tasted it much." Carat took a sip of wine and said, "I'm still a fan of French food, and I've been used to it since I came here." ”
"I'm picky about other foods, as long as it doesn't meet the taste, even if it's placed in front of my eyes, I'll be very disgusted."
"Alright then, let's go eat some authentic French food." Mir was a little lost.
Mill looked back at Gaenor and said, "You really need to think about it, Mr. Evan. ”
"I will." Gano responded.
"I'll give you some time, before I leave for Philadelphia, I want you to come to me, or I can come here to find you, I need an accurate answer."
"What? You're going to Philadelphia? ”
"Is there a case in Philadelphia? Or did you find some clues to Carl that point to Philadelphia? Gaynor asked Mir, "I heard you talking about St. Louis, and I think it's where you're going, not Philadelphia." ”
"No, Mr. Evan, it's the woman behind Omar, Deliner, I'm going to kill her first, and then I'll come back and investigate Karl." Mill told him, "Philadelphia is critical. ”
Mill continued: "The clue about Carl and Carol is like a string that has been released from a kite, it is broken, can you understand?" ”
"It's a fitting analogy." Carat added.
"I see, Mr. Edward, Omar's business hasn't really been dealt with yet, is it?" He asked.
Mir nodded and said, "That's right, that's it, in addition, I think Carl's disappearance probably has something to do with Delina, after all, he has a lover's eye in his hand, it is a token of Carl's love affair with Delina, maybe some other clues will be found in Philadelphia." ”
"Good luck then." Gano asked, "Mr. Edward, when are you going to go to Philadelphia?" ”
"Just a few days, at the latest early next month, I'm waiting for Uncle Amos to arrive, I urgently need his dispatch order, I don't want to be alone in Philadelphia."
Mill sighed and said, "If Carl hadn't disappeared, he would have followed me to Philadelphia, but now that things are getting more and more difficult, I can only use the people from the Federal Police Department to investigate Delina myself." ”
"yes, it's a bit of a bad time for him to disappear." Gano thought for a moment, "Still, to hear you say this, his disappearance has something to do with Delina, and even if he doesn't, he can get something out of her mouth." ”
"To lend you a good word, Mr. Evan." Mill smiled and said, "I will wait for your good news." ”
"Is that good news?"
"Of course, your addition will make my team stronger."
Gaynor looked at Carat, then at Mill, and then he held out his finger and drew a number, saying, "There are only three of us." ”
"What about your former men?"
"Don't mention it, the murder is over, and they left me without saying hello."
Mir didn't mean to blame them: "They came to help me with the orders of Uncle Amos himself, fearing that I would not be able to do it alone, and with the involvement of the French district police department, there were to some extent differences of opinion, contradictions, quarrels. ”
"You can't live without them, can you?" Gaynor asked.
"Yes, since I became a detective, we've been pretty much friends, partners, and we get along very well." Mil suddenly thought of Martin: "I said last time that when the murder is over, I will bring someone who looks so much like Ian for you to see..."
"Don't be discouraged, Mr. Edward." "You went to Philadelphia, and I think they're going to follow you," Gaenor said. ”
"I'm not sure yet." "When Uncle Amos arrives," said Mir, "I will try to keep them following me, unless they have another mission." ”
"Although there is one person who should not have left, I can't get him involved."
"Why?" Gaino asked curiously.
"He is now a student of Father Divine."
"Oh my God! How did he do it? ”
Mir replied: "It should be talent, the priest chose him, and I will be happy for him in the same way, and in the future there will be trouble, and with our personal relationship, he will definitely come to my aid." ”
"Does he know magic?"
"Not at all." "As far as I know, he was a Bible reader in the church and the priest would teach him," Mill said. ”
"He represents the priest of the future."
Mir thought of Vincent's big mouth, and his head ached.
"He can be an exorcist, and the priest is not very qualified for him." "If he doesn't care about his mouth, the future is a big question," Mill said. ”
"You need to warn him about this, Mr. Edward."
"I will, Mr. Evan."
Mill immediately stood up and said, "Alright, Mr. Evan, I need to leave. ”
"I think I hear your stomach growling."
"Really?"
Mir asked, surprised, "It disgraced me." ”
Then Mir smiled and said, "You need to try French cuisine, Monsieur Evan, I can't guarantee that there will always be Spanish cuisine, because we don't like to eat it." ”
"No, Mr. Edward, find a chance, and I'll show you a hand."
"Mr. Evan, the question of food is a small matter, and your final decision is an important matter."
Mir leaned closer to Gaenor and whispered, "You help me keep an eye on someone." ”
Mir pointed to the house diagonally across from him and said, "If any man enters or leaves the house, you need to tell me." ”
"What does he look like?"
"Man, all I need is this answer."
"I see, Mr. Elvard." He said, "Is he a murderer?" ”
"It's not." Mill shook his head lightly and said, "It's the person who is about to join us, it's a cook, a cook at the New Orleans inn." ”
"It's incredible, Mr. Edward, you actually found a cook, do you want him to solve the case?"
"I have tasted his cooking, so to speak, very authentic French cuisine." Mill chuckled and said, "I don't think that prevents him from solving the case at all." ”
Gano stretched out his finger and said, "It's four people now, and if you add the previous ones, the team will be even stronger." ”
"yes, it's not enough for me alone, except for her."
"You need to choose the best helper, and there are not many people, but it will become a burden."
Mir agreed with Gaynor: "Thanks for the reminder, Mr. Evan. ”
"Before I leave, I'll have to go and have a look inside the house." Mill said as he stood in the stairwell.
"Okay, I'll keep an eye on him for you."
Mir and Kra leave Gano's house, and Mir hopes that Gano will agree to join him so that he can be protected at all times.
Mir also has a selfish agenda, and with Gano Evan's connections with the tavern's correspondents, he will bring him a lot of business - private detectives.
Mir's is still a little worried, fearing that Gano will disappear like Carl.
"Mr. Edward, what are you thinking?" Mir stopped suddenly, and Kra nearly crashed into Mir's.
"Worried about Mr. Evan."
"Will he be missing too?"
"I don't know." Mill continued walking: "I need the priest's help. ”
"We're going to be able to go to the priest next."
"No, Carat, go to your house first." Mir stood at the door of the house and said, "Then we will fill our stomachs before we can go to the priest's house." ”
"Didn't you see the bottle?"
"I just want to double confirm."
Mill thinks that the sudden appearance of the black maid is not so simple, because there are no dead people in Kra's house, which is enough to show that her appearance is to interfere with his own investigation.
"Her distractions just make me more interested in clues," he said. ”
Kra listened to Mir's words in confusion, staring blankly at Mir's extremely confident back.
"Ready to record?"
"What? What to record? ”
"Record the scene, this is your home, Carat." Mill turned to look into Kra's eyes and said, "It's a training, a training for your memory." ”
"Okay." Carat let out a long sigh of relief and said, "I'll try." ”
Mir glanced at the window, and as Mir said, the maid's presence was a distraction.
"Look!" Mill pointed to the window and said, "One more bottle." ”
"There's a bottle in the upstairs window." Mir walked over and observed, "The direction has been adjusted. ”
"What's that direction?"
Mir touched his chin and thought for a moment and said, "It seems to be outside of St. Louis." ”
"You can ignore it for now, I've already memorized its direction in my head, and when we meet the priest, we'll go get a map."
