Returning to the little world she dominated, Varina felt a lot more relaxed.

In the morning, many things exceeded his expectations, causing him to improvise.

While he seems to be coping well at the moment, he feels like his control over events is rapidly decreasing as the number of variables increases.

The beginning of all variables was the boy with bright red eyes, Ian Wright.

Varina didn't expect Detective Zerrell to take him to the shooting club.

In the original book, Klein personally certified that Ian's observation beyond mental activity was not much worse than that of the "audience" in Sequence 9.

Not only that, but he also knew Caspers, and even Varina borrowed his name to open up the channel on Caspars's side.

Under all these conditions, it can be said that Ian is only one step away from seeing through Varina's disguise!

It was precisely because of this that Varina did not dare to let Ian continue to stay with Zeriel after taking over the mission, so he used the excuse of collecting information to transfer him away from Zeriel.

You know, Zariel is a veteran detective, and that's the profession that requires the most associative and reasoning skills.

Letting the two of them stay together, whoever suddenly has an idea can definitely clean up Varina's current weak vest.

Sure enough, Ian found the clue in the rental carriage.

Varina was nervous and glad at the time, but fortunately he wasn't too stupid, and took Ian with him, and roughly figured out what to say about dealing with him.

Ian's suspicions were based on a sketch that wasn't realistic, so he needed other information to back it up.

Seeing this, Varina threw out explosive information and bombarded him on the spot, making him accept his identity as a bounty hunter.

With this level of awareness, the likelihood of Varina being exposed to Ian will be greatly reduced.

There are rules to follow in people's way of thinking.

In the case of Ian's suspicion, if Varina had not misled, his focus would have always been on similarity, prompting him to constantly compare and find the commonalities between Varina's two identities;

After Varina's misdirection, his focus shifts to differences, and as long as he doesn't find the heavyweights in common, he no longer doubts Varina's identity.

This is the psychological preconceived first cause effect.

In this way, Varina has gained a more favorable external environment.

He didn't really want much, just a few days.

When his plan is complete and Zereel reports the results of his design to his cousin Reyes, the commission is over, and the chances of them making contact in the future are slim to none.

At that time, even if they rekindle their suspicions, because there is no interest involved, it is estimated that they will no longer spend energy to verify.

Varina took off her formal clothes and rested against the head of the bed for a few moments before she regained her composure.

He has very important things to do.

Of course, it's not really going to the East End to find out the news, but trying to find a way to patch the holes in the previous behavior.

His so-called connections in the East Side are all blown out to deceive people, and even other disappearance cases needed by the plan, he has to rely on Hugh's channels to obtain them, not to mention going to the East End to interrogate gang members?

There is no point in him going to the East End.

……

At seven o'clock in the evening, Varina, who had been at home all day, came to White Rum Street.

This was the meeting he and Hugh had agreed to in the morning.

He waited for forty minutes near the street before he saw Hugh coming briskly from the direction of the East End.

Varina hurriedly hurried up a few steps and asked, "Have you had dinner?" ”

"Not yet." Hugh shook his head.

"Then let's go over there and talk while we eat." Varina pointed to a restaurant not far down the street,

It's the peak time for workers to eat, and cheap cafes are packed with customers.

The restaurant on the street was only renovated to look a little more upscale than those cafes, and it filtered out most of the crowd to provide a comfortable dining environment for the target customers.

In order to facilitate the conversation, the two chose a seat in the corner.

"These are some of the missing cases I've found, you can take a look at them first."

As he spoke, Hugh handed over a few folded pages of paper.

Varina opened it and found that some of them were fairly well documented, with basic information and approximate time of disappearance:

"Dharavi Street, Haaland, male, about 50 years old, box gluer at Hendry's match factory, unemployed half a month ago, disappeared about 10 days ago......"

He skipped the case after only a few glances, because there were so few valuable clues that there was no room for follow-up.

"Tonghe Road, Erwan, male, about forty years old, a low-ranking member of the Squirrel Gang, disappeared in the night a month ago......"

Isn't this the neighborhood where the Dead Eels and the Squirrel Gang fought to seize the river? This guy probably was attacked and retaliated by the Dead Eel Gang, and his body was thrown into the Tasok River, right?

"Black Palm Street, Connie, female, 13 years old, daughter of the tavern cook Loida, disappeared a month and a half ago on her way to the church's free school......"

Kapin!

Wheeli Party!

His first reaction when he saw this case was him, and the characteristics of this case were too obvious.

Alas, it's been a month and a half, and it is estimated that people have already been transferred...... Moreover, Kaping's backstage is too big.

Not to mention, in his villa alone, there are several mid-sequence extraordinary people who take turns to guard, which is far from what he can provoke now.

Moreover, the main rumors of human trafficking in Capin are focused on young girls, and although in reality there is more than that, it is still not appropriate to plant his disappearance on his head.

From anger to regret to powerless loss, Varina felt a strange numbness in the end, as if his previous mood change was an overreaction.

Closing her eyes and sighing, Varina didn't look any further.

He needs some time to adjust.

"Two guests, this is the dinner you ordered, I wish you a pleasant meal."

I don't know how long it took for the waiter's voice to bring Varina back to reality.

"Knowing the general situation and knowing the specific details are completely different." Hugh's tone was flat, "What happened to them was tragic, but they weren't the only ones who were miserable. ”

"As a bounty hunter, you have to get used to that."

Varina nodded silently and ate the dinner on the table.

More than 10 minutes later, he went through the case of the disappearance.

One by one, the experiences of the missing people are condensed into just a few sentences, each occupying a few lines of space on the unfolded note.

Varina's gaze swept faster and faster, and finally stopped at one of the lines:

"Green Road, Cruz, male, about 30 years old, porter of the dock union, was seized by the casino of the Boiling Blood Bar a week ago for losing money in gambling, and disappeared ......"
