Chapter 13: Clues

Aaron misses his echo device very much at the moment, with this thing, he can directly replay the situation, and he still needs to find clues so little. However, the Hanhan system said that the echo device had to wait for him to unlock it later.

[It's like an RPG!] Don't you like RPGs the most? 】

[I still like FPS!] 】

[For example, what chocolate and vanilla?] 】

While arguing with the system, Aaron walked to the fence and looked at the two-meter wall, Aaron decided to take a detour.

"David, what's behind the wall?"

"Do you mean the backyard, it's a bush, we didn't build a fence before, but then there was a fox in the backyard, and then Mila and I thought it would be better to build a fence!"

"Is there a place to go? I'm talking about shortcuts! ”

"The board on your right, a little to the right, that one is movable, I didn't nail it, you can go over there! Be careful, though, there might be some bugs in the bushes or something! ”

"Okay, thank you!" Nodding his head to indicate that he knew, Aaron walked over and touched the thick plank, and then with a push, a gap more than one person wide was revealed.

Through the gap, Aaron saw the bush, about a few hundred meters wide, deep in the forest, and perhaps because of the evening evening, the bush was full of insect chirping.

However, Aaron did not come here to observe nature and write insect notes, behind the wall, Aaron found the trace he wanted, it was a footprint with dirt, although the footprints were blurred by the rain, but they were still recognizable.

"Footprint looks like a man's, but why is he here?" Aaron was a little confused, and after taking a look at the forest, Aaron directly kicked the wall with his right foot, and with both hands propped up, he was already standing up.

"Wow, buddy, you're so good!" David, who was in the backyard, saw Aaron jump onto the fence, his eyes lit up, "Is this kunfu?" ”

"No, it's just a wall!"

"Okay, so what did you find?"

"There are some, but I'm sure it wasn't Kitty who did it!"

"Yay, hi baby, I heard you, Kitty is innocent!"

"Isn't it Kitty, isn't it a house elf?"

"Voldemort, perhaps?"

"It's okay, then I'll stay here at night and see who it is!"

"Forget it, it's just a small animal, and if you are disturbed, maybe an animal protection organization will come to trouble you!" After thinking about the clues he had found, Aaron felt that it was better not to let these two people die, so he persuaded him.

"Yes, I'm tired from work all day, I'm about to get married, and there are so many plans, we don't need to pay attention to this!" David also persuaded.

In the end, Mira dismissed the idea of squatting, but at the cost that David had to check every morning to see if the backyard was a mess, and if so, then David would have to clean it before Mila got up.

After coming out of David's house, Aaron returned to the hotel, and after saying hello to the hostess, Aaron returned to the room and sent a message to Holmes.

"Mr. Holmes, as far as I can see, the guy who rummaged through the trash can should have something to do with the missing veteran, and maybe even the missing veteran!"

After sending his conclusions to the letter, Holmes replied in a short time.

"Anything will be related, it can't happen independently, you speculate that the person who turned through the dumpster is a missing old man, I agree with this, it can be determined exactly, but you need evidence to prove your judgment, reasoning alone is not enough!"

"I get it, tomorrow I'll have another conversation with the missing veteran's family to see if there's any missing information! Then I might go into the forest and search for traces of that veteran! ”

"Stay safe!"

After typing out these words, Sherlock Holmes raised his head, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and then looked at Watson who was lighting a fire in front of him, and laughed.

"What's the matter, the kid is having a problem?"

"No, he's going well, he's already found the clue!"

"That's nice, but can't you come and help me light a fire? It's cold at night in the desert! The first half of Watson's sentence is still a compliment, and the second half of the sentence becomes a complaint.

"Sorry, I remember we brought fuel!"

"That was before our plane was shot down!" Watson pointed to the fixed-wing plane not far away, which was still smoking.

"Okay, so what are we going to have for dinner?"

"Roast lizard!"

"Ah, Watson, I don't know how to live without you!"

"Come less!"

When you wake up comfortably, open the window and embrace the sun...... Hell, the town in the early morning didn't see the sun but became foggy.

Walking to the restaurant on the first floor, Aaron found that the hotel was crowded with tourists.

"Good morning!" After greeting a few acquaintances, Aaron sat down at a random spot and ordered a bagel and coffee.

"Looks like you slept well last night?" Ash came over with breakfast and poured Aaron another glass of honey water.

"Appetizer! Where are you going today? ”

"Well, I'll go find a few friends first, and then I'll go for a walk in the forest!"

"Well, have fun!"

Then Ash went about his work, and Aaron began to concentrate on his breakfast.

Batted extra crispy bagels, scooped up with a spoonful of cream on top, and baked bacon and fried eggs, the breakfast made Aaron feel radiant and drank his coffee before picking up his coat and walking out.

The morning fog had lifted, the sun was shining on the dew-stained stone pavement, the evaporating vapor was slowly drifting, and according to the address given by Holmes, Aaron found the missing veteran's home. A three-story stone building with a small flag of the United Kingdom fluttering on a pointed red roof.

Moments after the doorbell was pressed, a woman with messy hair walked out of the room.

"Hello, ma'am, I was sent by Mr. Holmes!"

"Oh yes, thank you very much!" The woman looked at Aaron, who had a salesman's standard smile on his face, and hurriedly stepped forward to open the door.

"Please come in!"

As soon as he entered the door, Aaron was shocked by the decoration in the living room, the baroque pendant on the roof, the crystal chandelier, the golden splendor, and on the fireplace on one side of the room, there was also a family portrait, next to the portrait was a relatively old looking photo, a bearded, reddish high-nosed man wearing a Marine uniform holding the L1A1 rifle in his hand was smiling at the camera.

On the wall on the other side hung two flintlock muskets.

"Hello, sir!" As Aaron surveyed his surroundings, an old woman with gray hair and a blue cardigan and a floral dress walked out.
