Chapter 305
If you want to follow a row of footprints to find a person, it may be possible if you are in the jungle, after all, there are few other external factors interfering.
But in Demingham, there are people coming and going outside the villa area, and the footprints of the murderer will soon be covered by the footprints of others.
However, this does not mean that the clues are cut off. There are many people with different eyes. This sentence is somewhat derogatory, but it has given Donald a chance to continue his investigation.
It is true that the murderer chose to assassinate at a very special time. Most of the assassinations were chosen in the dead of night, but he did not know why he chose breakfast time.
The breakfast for the Owens was between 7:30 and 8:00. However, when the murderer pulled away after the battle, it was almost 8:30.
At this time, most of the shops in the civilian area have to open for a new day’s business, and the streets are full of salarymen who are going to their respective companies or Chamber of Commerce.
After completing the assassination, the murderer may want to use the crowd to cover up his whereabouts, but Donald has tracked powder, and if he tracks here, and knows his approximate size, there is a great chance Find people in some other way.
For example, the gentleman sitting in the newsstand in front of him obviously had to sit here half an hour earlier in order to ensure that he could catch up with the first batch of office workers.
“About six feet tall, relatively thin, wearing a long grey trench coat…”
The man frowned in the newsstand kept reminiscing, he Next to him is a small stove with a mechanical casing, and a little red-hot coal can be seen faintly inside. He is holding a bowl of corn bisque soup, which has been warmed on the top of the stove before.
“Oh, sorry, I just happened to want to read a newspaper, Stephanie, I bought yours for you as well.”
Aware of the other party’s memories After a while, Donald immediately realized that he didn’t say anything, put a shilling on the counter, and took two copies of the latest newspapers.
“I remembered that there was indeed such a person. I saw it through this small window when I was lighting a fire and sorting newspapers in the morning. He walked in a strange way, always walking twice. I jumped up and down and walked around, I thought it was a guy who ran out of a mental hospital, so I took a second look out of curiosity.”
Pointing to the glass window in front of his counter, Donald looked at him. Looking at it, if the window was pulled up before, it should be very hidden.
The murderer who had just killed a viscountess turned into a neurotic looking guy in his eyes.
Donald raised his eyebrows and looked at Stephanie, each smiling slightly.
“Where are the others?”
Stephanie took a step forward and handed Donald the umbrella in her hand, then squeezed him behind her and took the initiative. Bent over and asked.
The man who was leaning against the chair before, with Erlang’s legs crossed, immediately put down the soup bowl in his hand, straightened his back, and probably wanted to show his posture.
“I saw him going that way.”
The newsstand was at a fork in the road, and he was referring to the road to the east.
“Apart from the strange walking posture of that person, is there anything else that impresses you?”
Not in a hurry to leave, and finally found a witness, Naturally, ask carefully.
“His hat is so low that I can’t see his face. By the way, he seems to have stopped at that corner and threw something in the trash.”
This answer made the two of them quicken their steps and walk to the trash can, which was actually an iron bucket with the lid half-covered.
“Don’t need to reach down and dig it out? This…I won’t do it anyway.”
As a woman, let Stephanie handle it Reaching into the trash for clues that she didn’t know what it was, it would make her sick for days.
“As a wizard, it’s time for me to stand up at this time. You help me watch the wind and don’t let ordinary residents notice it.”
With his hands in his pockets, Manipulate the spirit strength to pick out the topmost things in the trash can at a very fast speed and float under the iron cover, this is to prevent scaring passers-by.
Putting aside some bags, melon pits, and some bamboo sticks, Donald eventually found a crumpled ball of paper.
“Flower Hotel.”
It was a name handwritten on a note, and Donald looked at some other rubbish one by one, nothing of note, and then after a brief silence Said,
“Stephanie, contact other people, find a place, let them come over quickly.”
Taking advantage of the gap between Stephanie’s communicator to contact other people, Donald stopped a taxi on the side of the road and asked for the location of the Flower Inn for a shilling.
At the end of this street.
Sit down at a cafe across from the Flowers Hotel as they waited for the rest of the Rose Squad to come over, Donald started flipping through the newspaper in order not to be suspicious.
The most recent hot topic in newspapers is, unsurprisingly, airships.
“The test flight of the airship ceremony is next weekend… wow, this is the airship?”
Looking at the picture that takes up most of the newspaper, the above The content is an airship that is still parked in a large factory.
This is a different kind of bloated balloon than Donald imagined, with a strange product that resembles a train car hanging below it.
On the contrary, the shape of the latest airship is undoubtedly very eye-catching.
Although a considerable part of its power source still comes from a streamlined balloon above, this part no longer occupies all 2/3/2022 of the airship, but is reduced to one third. The lower part of it is like the hull part of a large ship, and its front ram looks like it has been transformed into a sightseeing platform, with glass on both sides, and many more on both sides of the hull. I have two jets that look a bit like the one on the previous ship…
“It should be, the most recent newspapers use it as a page, this is Demingham As long as the test flight is successful, the airship that many people are thinking of, will definitely become the iconic existence of Demingham in a short period of time.”
Stephanie has a lot to say about the type of airship. I’m not interested in something, but I can’t stand it’s far-reaching significance. Anyone who lives in Demingham will involuntarily pay attention to it.
In a few days it will appear overhead and cruise the whole of Demingham, when the time comes is the real look down and see.
“Donald, Horn and the others are here.”
After waiting for about ten minutes, they were not too far from the villa area. Horn and the others arrived one after another and arrested them. The capture action naturally begins immediately.
Stephanie takes the lead.
That’s right, she came first, but not to fight, but to confirm whether the murderer was in the hotel.
“On the second floor, room 16, there are other guests around, what should I do?”
There are other guests in the hotel, which is a little troublesome, we will move on later It is easy to get into trouble if it causes casualties to ordinary people.
“The second floor must be emptied first, otherwise he will not be able to use his hands and feet at all. The previous murderer’s method of killing people proves that his melee combat ability is not bad. Once the fight starts, it is difficult to keep his hands.”
Pence sat on the edge of the table behind Donald, facing the coffee shop counter, discussing things that had nothing to do with coffee.
At this moment, someone behind the coffee shop counter looked up in their direction.
It seems strange why these guests know each other, but they don’t sit together.
Quickly, he lowered his head again and lost his face.
“Empty the second floor… It’s too difficult to implement, let the boss in the hotel shout down alone? This behavior is too obvious. The murderer who dared to attack the Owens is definitely not low. The slightest change in the surrounding environment will attract his attention.”
The discussion here continues, and Boglow raised a finger and waved, and Boglow denied Pence’s proposal.
“What should I do? I can’t let that guy go because he cares about the life of the ordinary person.”
“I suggest waiting for him to come out, now he doesn’t know where he is hiding. The place has been exposed, it’s always coming out…”
Borglo stopped halfway through his words, because a waiter was walking past the counter with a few cups of coffee. .
Donald put his eyes on the newspaper on the desktop, everyone remained silent, some words were not suitable for the oral person to hear.
“Sir, your coffee.”
It was still bitter coffee, placed in front of Donald, the brewing temperature seemed to be a little high, and the heat rose continuously.
“Thanks… heh, you guys are pretty particular, you have to wear gloves to serve coffee?”
Fingering through the ears of the cup, Donald noticed the waiter Wear gloves.
“This is to prevent the liquid from splashing, otherwise it will be more troublesome to wash.”
Put the coffee cup by cup in front of several other people, the waiter said with a faint smile .
Turns around and leaves, with his back to the door of the store, he looks a little thin, close to six feet tall…
Donald spends a lot of words along the way , I was already a little thirsty, and when I picked up the coffee, I wanted to bring it to my mouth.
The same is true of Boglo on the other side, his lips have been sipped on the rim of the glass, and the others are each thinking about how to arrest the prisoners in the Flower Hotel, without raising their glasses.
Meow
Finger, who was lying on Donald’s lap, suddenly called out. Donald stopped the movement of his hands, looked down and found that it was licking its paws with its tongue.
“Hungry? Waiter, bring a milkshake.”
Put down the coffee cup and stop the waiter who hasn’t returned to the counter.
“Wait! Don’t drink coffee, it’s poisonous!”
Borglo, who has the innate talent of the poison system, can digest all kinds of venom and convert it into poison qi for release.
Just now, just a few seconds after he drank the coffee into his stomach, the innate talent suddenly activated!
Before he finished speaking, all eyes of Rose Squad were already on Boglo, and even Donald was a little dazed.
Is coffee poisonous?
“Who are you!”
Borglo turned around and looked towards the waiter who had just walked a few steps, his hand was already on his waist.
“It’s really troublesome, didn’t expect to have a poison expert, so Anomaly Bureau also likes this kind of way?”
Icy voice.
Fingers twist the clockwork, three turns, no more, no less.
Place the mechanical monkey on the table next to it.
Bangbangbang
The cymbals hit, making a crisp sound.
At this moment, a large amount of white mist suddenly rose from the waiter!
The murderer is near!
