Chapter Ninety-Nine: Gossip and Chat After Dinner
Because James's underground ghost case is progressing slowly, Wayne and Bonnie are stationed at the police station again.
So now it's just Chris and Paul in the house.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Seeing Chris, who was busy, Paul asked.
After these three days of getting along, they gradually became familiar with each other.
Especially Chris, who talks a lot, and Paul, who talks little, are simply destined friends.
And in the past few days of observation, Chris also found that Paul is closest to Jeffrey, who barely speaks, in this extraordinary team.
It makes it hard for Chris to imagine what it was like for them to work together in the past.
On the other hand, Elton seems to love Wayne very much, and of course Wayne will fight back mercilessly whenever he has the opportunity.
As for Captain James, he is more focused on Elton and Jeffrey at work, seems to prefer Wayne in life, and now has Bert and Bonnie.
And because of the assignment of the group, Bonnie, the little girl, is almost inseparable from Wayne.
Chris often heard in the dining room and living room discussing new dresses, new romance novels, and cosmetics that women love......
Oh, woman.
As for Jeffrey, who is the least talkative, he seemed to be closer to Paul before, and now it seems that there are more Chris.
And somehow, Chris always thought that the way Jeffrey looked at him was a little weird.
After today's dinner, Chris sat down next to Bert and asked:
"How's your case going?"
"There's something weird about it. Bert thought about the progress of the case in the past four days, "After Jeffrey joined yesterday, through his psychics, we have a little clue. ”
"What's so weird about it?" asked Chris.
"The ghost who killed two sewer workers...... Seems to be a human being. Bert replied.
"What? how is this possible?" exclaimed Bonnie, who had sat down next to her, at some point.
"yes, a ghost suddenly became human. Bert also frowned, unable to understand.
"Could it be that the ghost is attached to the human? Chris asked.
"That's where the problem comes in. According to the spirits, they could not touch the body of that person, and the spirits could not touch the human being. Bert replied.
"And how did you say that the murderer was a ghost in the first place?" asked Bonnie.
"Because the cause of death of the two workers was caused by ghosts, and there was still dust left by ghosts on their bodies. Bert replied, "That's why it's a ghost case in the first place." ”
"Then you have an image of the human. Chris asked, having witnessed the ferocious scene of Jeffrey letting the spirit enter his brain and leave a trail of images.
"Of course, there were, but after investigation, the gentleman had passed away two years ago. Bert sighed.
"Oh my God, it's a strange case again. "I've been so tired lately, I don't have time to make antidotes or go to the church hospital." ”
"yes, I didn't expect the life of the 'Punisher' to be so busy. Chris sighed.
Bert picked up the black tea on the table and took a sip and said, "The biggest advantage is that we don't have to worry about extraordinary materials in the future." ”
"Why?" asked Bonnie.
"This is what Elton told me, as a member of the church's 'punisters', we can accumulate merit by solving cases, and then after reaching a certain standard, we can apply to the church to exchange for something. ”
"Anything?" said Chris's eyes.
"As long as the church has it, it stands to reason that it is fine. Bert put down his teacup and smiled, "But don't think it's too beautiful, according to the preciousness of extraordinary items, the merit required is very different." ”
"For example, the Extraordinary Material, the main material of Sequence 9 requires the least, and I heard that it only requires 10 merit points.
"The main material of Sequence 8 is to have 100 merit points. ”
"Oh my God, it's so horrible. Bonnie exclaimed.
"Yes, by analogy, the main material of Sequence 7 requires 1,000 merit points. Bert sighed.
"But it's still a lot more cost-effective, after all, it doesn't cost anything. Chris laughs.
"Yes, the church will also allow us to buy extraordinary materials for less than the market price, but in order to prevent some church members from making the difference, it is in the form of purchase restrictions. Bert said.
"So is it possible that magical items can also be purchased with grade points and gold?" asked Chris.
"That's fine, but not many church members trade in grades. And gold coins, even if they are lower than the market price, are probably a lot of money. ”
"Why doesn't anyone trade in GPAs?" asked Bonnie.
"Because our merit points are only enough for the extraordinary materials we need to be promoted reluctantly, there is usually not much left. Bert recounted Elton's exact words.
"And the church has the potion recipe we need?" asked Chris.
"Well, I can only say that you are the luckiest of us. ”
Bert patted Chris on the shoulder and said:
"The complete sequence pathways in the church are 'readers' and 'scholars', and as for the other sequence pathways, I heard Elton say that there will be some included in the lower sequences, and as for the future, it is up to us to try our luck. ”
"Thankfully, Bert and I already have it. Bonnie said with a smile.
"By the way, I'll tell you something. ”
Chris looked left and right and saw that everyone else was busy with other things, so he beckoned, so Bert and Bonnie immediately came over.
"Do you remember the beautiful lady I was talking about yesterday?" asked Chris in a whisper.
"Remember, what's wrong with her?" asked Bonnie in a whisper, as she seemed to smell a hint of gossip.
"I tell you, don't tell anyone! she's the captain of our 'Punisher', Wardhouse's ex-girlfriend!"
Bonnie's eyes widened when she heard the answer, and she covered her mouth, for fear that she would be screamed by this powerful news.
"Really, how do you know?" said Bert, looking incredulous.
"It was Zach himself, and the lady told him something like not seeing him for a long time. Chris added, frowning.
"Oh my God. Bonnie's eyes flashed with gossip fire, "Wardhouse's ex-girlfriend turned out to be in league with the criminals." ”
Immediately, the little girl's brain made up a poignant love story:
There is love and hate between a handsome police officer and a beautiful criminal, a heart-wrenching love-hate relationship.
Although they love each other, they cannot be together.
Because of their destined antagonism, they sink in love and hate......
