Chapter 53: Royce's Investigation Progresses

"Where did the original tenant go?"

Royce White stood in the living room of the cabin, dusting the cabinet with his hand, frowning and asking.

The landlord seemed a little impatient.

"Whether you rent a house or make an inquiry, if you inquire you need to pay a fee for inquiry. ”

Royce hesitated, wiped a little dust from his fingers, and took a dent from the money bag on his belt and placed it on the cabinet.

"Tell me now. ”

The landlord looked at the Dante, walked over and reached for it, took it into his arms, and immediately became enthusiastic.

"The old man left secretly, and when he left, he left a month's rent on the cupboard, and he never told me where he went. ”

Royce was not annoyed, and took out his notebook and pen from his bosom.

"Talk about his appearance, the more detailed the better. ”

With the landlord's description, Royce quickly sketched a portrait in his notebook.

Closing the notebook and going to the door, he looked back at the cabin and frowned slightly.

It took a long time to find the wooden house in the town according to the stamp on the cover of the letterhead that I had seen from Mrs. Alex.

Unexpectedly, it was a step too late, and the other party had already moved out.

To leave the town, you have to take public transport.

Immediately rush to the only car dealer in the town and show the portrait for the people in the car dealership to recognize.

The busy car dealer guy was obviously not very interested and waved his hand.

"I'm busy, don't bother me if you're not in the car. ”

Royce White always kept his temper good, took out another Dante, and stood in the middle of the car to remind him loudly.

"If anyone can provide any information about the person shown in the portrait in the notebook, they can get this Dante. ”

During the recession, someone inquired about the news and paid a dant, which was a huge amount of money.

Soon a large number of people came up claiming to have seen the old man in the portrait, both the guys from the car dealership and the passengers waiting for the bus here.

Royce puts Dante back in his purse and asks questions of the people who claim to know the information.

"What's on his left cheek?"

Some people answered that it was a mole, some answered that it was a birthmark, some answered that it was a dimple, and some answered that it was a scar, and the answers were strange.

Soon, a large number of people were eliminated because of this problem.

Because there is nothing on the left cheek of the portrait target, the fishing-style questioning is productive.

In the end, only two people remained.

One is a driver at a car dealership.

One is a guy from the local car dealer who ruthlessly rejected him before.

"Where did he go?"

Royce asked the two of them.

"Stonehammer Town ......"

The two replied in unison.

It seemed that the two men were not lying, and Royce nodded, writing it down in his notebook.

Next, he asked the two questions separately, and their answers corroborated each other, sifting out information with different answers, leaving only information with the same answers.

One dent was left at the end.

"You two divide it yourself, and get me a ticket to Stonehammer Town. “

It was already evening when he arrived in Stonehammer Town, and Royce continued to inquire at the car dealership in Stonehammer Town, and got the information that the portrait target got out of Stonehammer Town in the car and got out of the car and returned to Stonehammer Town.

The target is in Stonehammer Town!

As you get closer to your target, finding the portrait target will soon reveal the truth.

Royce didn't rest, and immediately began to inquire around the town, and when he arrived in the town, he always had to buy some necessities, especially food, so the next place to inquire was the local grocery store and food store.

I asked several companies in a row, and finally I had useful information.

The middle-aged woman in the food store was quite conscientious and did not charge a fee for inquiring about the news.

"I've met him, but you'll have to answer some of my questions before you tell you. ”

This sentence caught Royce off guard, and he took the hand that had been pulling out the money from the money bag with a puzzled expression.

The middle-aged woman pulled Royce to the side and lowered her voice.

"Are you married?"

Royce shook his head.

The middle-aged woman nodded in satisfaction.

"My daughter is good, and if you will meet her, I will tell you all about Monsieur Bonucci. ”

"Did Alex change his name?" or did Bonucci write letters to Mrs. Alex pretending to be Alex?"

Royce hesitated for a moment and agreed to the middle-aged woman's request.

In the only restaurant in the local town, he endured the chatter of the daughter of an equally obese middle-aged woman, which should have been the hardest period of his life.

After the date, I returned to the middle-aged woman's shop.

"Your daughter is warm and lively, I like it very much, and I can get in touch with it more in the future. ”

The middle-aged woman was overjoyed when she heard this.

"I knew my daughter was very popular with the handsome guys, and when you went on a date, Monsieur Bonucci came once, and I took the opportunity to inquire about him, and he lives at number 73 on this street, and I asked him where he was from, and I said that his friends were looking for him. ”

The previous inquiries were all in the name of a friend, but Royce felt bad when he heard the sound, and quickly rushed out of the food store and ran towards No. 73 on the street.

......

"The people of the Church of Light have found this place. ”

Alex looked surprised and quickly gathered his things in the house, not understanding why he was exposed.

"Could it be Downing Stewart?"

On second thought, I thought about rejecting this speculation.

"Stewart received my warning letter, and the two passed by, not embarrassed themselves, representing that the other party had given up the investigation, not to mention that according to the information from the General Bureau, the young man was already serving in the General Directorate and did not have much entanglement with the ruling samurai. ”

After thinking about it, he thought of the letter.

"It must be the letter, the letter to his wife. ”

He secretly sent the letter from his partner, because he missed and worried about his wife too much.

Now it's too late to regret it, and quickly pack up things.

I packed my things and was about to leave when I heard a slight sound of footsteps outside the door, gradually approaching the main entrance.

Alex frowned, hesitated slightly, turned and quickly ran to the back door, a hand reaching into the packed.

......

Before finding cabin 73 on the street, he walked across the lawn in front of the house and slowly approached the door on the wooden steps.

The moment I slammed the door, I saw a figure flash out the back door from the depths of the living room.

Seeing this, Royce quickly chased to the back door, and was about to rush out of the back door when a man-tall beast opened its bloody mouth and pounced on him.

Subconsciously dodged back and retreated into the living room.

The giant beast smashed the frame of the back door and rushed in, confronting Royce in the living room.

The beast was covered in flames, the flames were burning and whirring, and its two heads were like hyenas, with slender fangs.

It's the Hellland Lava Dog!

The Hellhounds are the highest forms of summoning magic, coming from the depths of Hell and being loyal servants of demons, and once summoned, this infernal creature will create a bond pact with its target, and the battle will never end unless one of them dies.
