Chapter 24
The Ratcatcher won’t stray too far from his temporary base, that’s for sure, so many jewels and other belongings, if a passerby takes it, that’s the most impressive Annoying things.
Donald put aside the battlefield, in order not to be exposed, he deliberately made a big circle, behind where the mousetrap was located was a large number of warehouses, it would be difficult for others to find one of them. It’s small, but Donald is someone who is tracking the powder. He looks at the direction, sprinkles some on the door, and turns on Spirit Vision in a short time, and he can immediately tell whether it is the stronghold of the mouser by the existence of the mouse group.
Found it!
Outside a small warehouse just behind where the battle sound came from, shiny footprints appeared in Spirit Vision. Someone had just entered and exited here not long ago, and there were also rat footprints all over the ground. It’s the best proof.
This warehouse is not owned by the Ratcatcher. He has pried the lock on the outside of the door in some way. Shut it down, the rat catcher is probably going to be planted today, it depends on how quickly those people end the battle.
Because it is a small warehouse, the area is the same size as the living room of the ordinary person’s house. When you enter the door, the moonlight shining through the skylights on both sides is quite discernible.
Now is the time to rush, and Donald is not interested in groping in the dark to find what the rattrapers have stored here, so he just squeezed a handful of tracing powder and glanced at the rest of the bottle. one third, tucked into a pocket.
Fortunately, the place is so small, so many things are impossible to squeeze into some narrow places, and half an hour ago, the rat catcher was full of thinking that he had fished into the sea. Who would bother to study how to hide things.
Following the footprints that appeared on the ground, Donald found a half-human-high bamboo basket inside the warehouse. The inner layer of the bamboo basket was lined with brown cloth, and the top was covered with a bamboo cover. He stretched out his hand to take it away, and moved his body to allow the moonlight to cover it.
The first thing that caught my eye was the big bag at the bottom. I tugged it twice, and immediately revealed a part of the jewelry necklace. This is stolen goods. The things from Abel’s family, Donald won’t steal it. Other people’s things, and even if he took it out of his conscience, although no one knows, it is still a problem to exchange these jewelry for money. He has no special way. If he goes to a regular jewelry store to sell the stolen goods, it is equivalent to telling Others are what he stole.
Looking at the objects next to it, a long wooden box, a notebook, and a cloth bag larger than a fist.
Open the box first, which is divided into several compartments with small wood chips, each of which contains a medicine or medicine powder bottle, which should be the medicine powder that the mousetraper has prepared. Donald will Take the wooden box out of the basket and set it aside.
He picked up the notes and flipped through them. There were a lot of text and digital descriptions on them. Among them, the production of potions was mentioned many times. This should be the research notes of the rat catcher. Donald only felt that his heart skipped a beat. What followed was a burst of ecstasy.
If the content of this notebook is detailed enough, its value will definitely not lose to the bag of jewels in Luo’s basket, especially the one the rat catcher drinks that can turn him into a rat monster If the medicine formula can be configured, there is definitely a market for this kind of trump card!
Hurry up and tuck it into your clothes.
The last remaining cloth bag contains the most common, but also the most practical, a bag of coins!
“Why so few…”
Donald thought it was a bag of gold pounds, but it turned out that there were only a few pieces, most of which were shillings. Greatly discounted value.
The rat catcher is not poor. On the contrary, because of the help of the rats, he is quite rich in many times, but who makes his side business different, the preparation of potions has always been the worst One of the things about money, materials, blending agents, experimental supplies… The more powerful the medicine, the more precious the materials needed, there is no doubt about this.
He is a heretic again, without the support of the organization, he has to pay for everything himself. The vast majority, which is also the reason for stealing Abel’s jewelry, as long as this vote succeeds, he can get new funds to support the next research.
I finally succeeded in developing it. I thought I had a trump card, and I bumped into the Justice Church’s team of judges…I feel sorry for him when I think about it.
“I will remember you, Mr. Ratcatcher, you are a good man.”
The jewels do not move, and all the other things are put into my arms, great harvest, withdraw!
“hmph humhaha”
Opening the warehouse door, and then turning the door back to its original state, Donald hummed a little tune happily, he couldn’t hold back, he laughed sounded.
As soon as he turned around, all the expressions were frozen on his face.
“Good evening.”
The jacket was draped over his shoulders, brawny man right hand held the limp mousetrap, and looked at the youngster in surprise, when the team told him When someone was in the warehouse, he still didn’t believe it.
“Eh…good evening.”
Cold sweat dripped down his cheeks, Donald was also a little flustered at this time, his spirit strength was in the previous attack and Spirit Vision The ability to use has been completely exhausted, and he looked at the fierce man who was half a head taller than himself.
It’s not that he’s blowing it, this person probably won’t need a second punch to kill him…
“Don’t be nervous, we are police officers, as long as you don’t break the law, you don’t need to Afraid, answer me, why are you here, what are you doing here, be honest.”
Unexpected tone, for civilians, brawny man doesn’t have that sharp imposing manner, just Even if his face is expressionless, his figure still gives people a lot of pressure.
“Actually, I’m an assistant at Swift’s Detective Agency, and recently we…”
There’s really nothing to lie about, Donald really didn’t do anything bad , he and Sherlock came to track down the rat catcher, and it wasn’t any wrongdoing.
“So it’s up to you to help us catch the rat catcher today. In that case, just hand over the things on your body, drink this bottle of dream water, and you can leave. , rest assured, this is not a poison, but a potion that will allow you to treat tonight’s events as a dream, and will not cause any other harm.”
“I know, you are going to kill me, Don’t waste the poison… I won’t fall asleep immediately after drinking it? I can’t sleep here all night.”
“No, it works when you sleep. “
It works when you sleep, so you’re not afraid of people writing down everything before going to bed? Donald groaned.
“Okay…I drank it.”
This deceptive technique is a bit clumsy, but no one is strong in the situation, with three judges in front of them, This can’t be covered by any other method, so Donald simply took out the notes and the wooden box, and glanced at it with some pity.
Neck up, cheers!
Suddenly, dizzy…
