Chapter 255: Old Friend

After Mir and Kra had lunch, they did not continue in the carriage.

The location of the restaurant is an authentic French restaurant near the New Orleans Police Station, and Mill always keeps his eyes on Inspector Walter at the door of the police station while eating.

His gaze narrowly and cautiously looked at the people nearby, and Mill thought that Chris had told Inspector Walter about Carl's disappearance.

"Hey! Inspector Walter! Mir walked over to Waldrue and said hello, his words tinged with anger.

Walter Rucker glanced at Milton and asked, "Detective Edward?" ”

However, Wald Rue smiled at Mir, nodded and said, "Why are you here?" Detective Edward. ”

"I'm here to see an old friend." Mill laughed.

"Old friends?" Waldrew looked at Mir with a strange look and asked, "Is it me?" Or Chris? ”

"Both."

"I don't care if you're getting close to me or if you want to do something."

Wald Roux reminded him: "You tricked me before, and I won't hold a grudge." ”

"Really?" Mir smiled contemptuously and said, "The news in the newspaper does not mean that you will not hold grudges. ”

"We're even, Mr. Edward."

Mir kept nodding at Waldru, "Yes, that's right, we're even." ”

"Congratulations, you have successfully become a detective, and Chris Moth has become your assistant, this is the result you want."

"No, Mr. Edward, I didn't have to do it, Inspector Louis gave it to me."

Wald Rue stared at Mir with very innocent eyes: "Louis Chris is probably leaving. ”

"What? Leave? ”

"Where is he going?" Mill frowned.

Ward replied, "France." ”

"Is he going home and getting married?"

"Married? No, no, no, it's just that he's homesick. ”

Mir asked, "When is he leaving?" ”

"I don't know." Wald Rue spread his hands and said, "You need to ask him about this, your relationship is so good." ”

"Is it broken?"

"Yes, it's basically broken because of Matilda."

Ward wondered: "I don't understand why, it's just because his sister is not competing for a woman at the same time." ”

"Listen, Inspector Walter, I want to see someone."

"Who?"

Mir said: "Omar. ”

"Omar?" Walter refused: "No, you can't see him." ”

Mill grabbed Ward Lu by the collar and said, "Ward, it's important, Carl is missing, I think Chris should have told you." ”

"Yes, he said, maybe Carl deserves it, I don't believe that a person would disappear so unexpectedly, and it was during the day." Walter said contemptuously, "If you say that at night, I may believe you." ”

"Yay!" Mir pursed his lips and forced back the anger in his heart and said, "By the way, Mr. Walder, on the second floor of the Carat House, you should have seen that pattern, right?" ”

"Yes." Ward stroked his beard and asked, "How do you know?" ”

"It's so simple, anyone who has been to the room can see the mark."

Mill leaned in and said, "Though you're hiding it, I can tell you what I see in the pattern. ”

Walder's body took a step back, desperate to know what Mir had seen.

"It's the dark abyss, an inconspicuous city of sin, am I right?"

Mill pressed Ward and said, "Actually, the pattern is not the mark of Satan at all, it is a mark of the Indian tribe, which represents rebirth and fall. ”

"It's the fall of the world, Inspector Walter."

Walter smiled and clapped at Mill and said, "Your imagination is brilliant, Mr. Edward, and I cannot deny that it may be true to you. ”

Mir knew that Ward didn't believe in such a thing, and from the beginning, Mir and Ward didn't believe that the ghost was the murderer.

Walter tilted his head and said arrogantly, "You should know, Mr. Edward, the ghost does not exist at all, and I will not be able to impress me no matter what you say." ”

"Yes, I know, if I could show you a ghost, would you believe that would happen?"

"What? Did I hear me right? Walter laughed twice and said, "Haha... Mir, are you confused? ”

Ward pointed to the woman behind Mir and said, "Carat, it's the ghost of the New Orleans hotel, it's dressed up as a man, it's a bad idea from Omar!" ”

"Don't talk to me about ghosts, your words are more absurd than it." Walter pointed to Mir's stomach again and said, "Ghosts usually appear at night, right?" ”

"It's hard to say."

"No, don't play tricks with me."

Ward warned Mill: "Unless it can show up in the daytime, at the police station, at any time, I'll be there for you." ”

After Hua De finished speaking, he immediately took off the flintlock pistol on his waist, and his movements were extremely coherent and gorgeous, and he said majestically: "Hmph! If it does come, I'll just punch it through the head. ”

"I hope so." Mir stifled a smile and said, "I hope you won't be scared by the ghost and pee your pants." ”

"If I could get the ghost to appear in front of you, would you grant my request?"

"It depends on my mood."

Wader gestured at the flintlock pistol and made an aiming motion towards Mir and said, "Peng! ”

As soon as Mir grasped the gun, he pushed away Ward's hand that pulled the trigger very hard: "Hey! I'm not kidding. ”

"You feel free." Walter put his tongue on the back of his face and said, "Please let go of my hand, Mr. Edward, I am not your woman." ”

"What?"

"You're not worthy, Inspector Ward, even if you're really a woman, especially your height, it doesn't make a difference at all."

Mir continued: "As an old friend, you had better listen to my advice, which is a good advice. ”

Walter pondered for a moment and asked, "Will I be missing then?" ”

"Do you want to go missing? That's not a good thing. ”

"No, Mr. Edward, it would be a blessing for you if I disappeared."

Ward looked into Mir's gaze and said, "Even though I rob you of the credit, you wish I would have disappeared into New Orleans." ”

"You're wrong, Inspector Walter, if you do go missing, it's a distraction for Carl's wife, can you understand?"

"Interference?"

A sinister smile appeared on the corner of Ward's mouth, so he shook his head and said, "That's damned! ”

"Is my disappearance interfering with your investigation?" Ward said angrily: "I really want to know what you have found in the past few days, after I disappear quietly in the daylight like Karl, what clues will I interfere with your investigation, you might as well tell it and listen." ”

"A bottle full of a third of Abis and neat."

"What?" Ward heard the clues that Mir had investigated, and immediately exclaimed, "Oh my God! What the hell did you look out for? Can they be clues? ”

"Why not?" Mill asked rhetorically.

Hua De crossed his hands around his arms and said angrily: "You are investigating cases like this? Bottle... What a bottle of..."

Mill interrupted, "It's Abis." ”

"Yes, Abis, and neat." Ward began to dance and said, "I have been to Carl's wife's house, and Carl took us there. ”

"Except for the death of a black maid in the bathroom, Carl's wife looks like she's dead, and it's like she's not dead." "When I was in my room on the second floor and I saw something strange in the bidet, it made me sick and retched. ”

"Yes, I just held back."

Mill told him, "Do you know what is in the bidet?" ”

"Hmm... It's like human skin, and it's like tree bark. ”

"It's human skin, charred human skin, with magic."

Ward was shocked for a moment and exclaimed, "Magic? ”

"Really, old friend, the word magic came out of the mouth of a third man." Ward pointed at Mir and said, "This man is you." ”

Mill hurriedly asked, "Who are the first two?" ”

"It's Omar and Chris."

"What do you want to say, Walter?"

"What I want to say is, never believe until I believe in magic." He pouted, "I think you're right. ”

"What a dark abyss, a strange word that fell into the world." "I'm not very exposed to a wide range of things, and I haven't seen any of these strange things happen in France," he said. ”

Mir said directly: "It's a curse, Walder." ”

"Is it a prophetic curse?"

"It's the latter, curse, I think you've seen it in the books."

"As a child, I remember, curled up in my mother's arms, reading together." Walter came back to his senses and asked, "What kind of curse will it be?" ”

"I don't know, it's a curse from an Indian tribe."

"Wait a minute." Walter had a heart in his eyes this time: "Mr. Edward, why are you telling me this?" I remember that in the house where you lived, you mentioned private detectives, and this useful and final news, for you, it should belong to the money spent, and not given for free. ”

"Are you trying to fool me a second time?"

Mir said to Ward with a smiling expression, "No, you're wrong, Ward, Chris spent money, and this month's salary is." ”

"At that time, you weren't the inspector of the French district of New Orleans, and the inspector was Chris."

Mill continued, "Now you'll have to pay for it, Inspector Walter, I've told you all. ”

"Damn!" He muttered quietly.

"No, Mr. Edward, I don't want to know this, and you don't have to tell me." Ward pointed to his right ear comically and said, "Everything you said came out of here." ”

"Alright then, Inspector Walter, I don't need to tell you anything about the constellation chart." Seeing that Ward was not interested in clues, Mill was not reconciled, and added a sentence before he left: "There is also a mapβ€”Louisiana." ”
