Chapter 589: Life needs to be calm!

Views:

abnormal!

Big pervert!

After hearing Jason's request, Hui Lijing took a step back, looked at Jason with vigilant eyes, and an electric baton appeared in her hand.

Stab, stab.

The electric baton was pointed directly at Jason, with a blue electric current emitting from the tip.

Jason's face, which he thought was rough, flickered under the current.

Immediately, there was a bit more ferocity.

Hui Lijing took another step back.

"Don't come here!"

Hui Lijing threatens Jason.

Jason spread his hands helplessly, indicating that he had been sitting there without moving.

The female boss also found that she seemed to be overreacting a bit.

However, thinking of Jason's words, the female boss gripped the electric baton tightly again.

Then, he began to look at Jason.

It's not an ordinary person's scrutiny.

It was the kind of look at Jason's vitals.

Obviously, the female boss planned to give Jason a break if something went wrong.

However, the other party did not remain silent.

Instead, he took a deep breath and asked in a calm voice.

"Why do you want that guy's...underwear?"

When she said this, Hui Lijing looked at Jason, and it turned into that perverted look again, and she couldn't control the electric baton in her hand and wanted to poke it.

"Find her whereabouts."

Jason replied calmly.

Moreover, facing Hui Lijing's persuasive eyes, Jason didn't back away and looked back indifferently.

Hui Lijing was taken aback by such a calm voice and indifferent eyes.

Really looking for that guy

The female boss's momentum couldn't help but stagnate.

However, the inquiries in his mouth continued.

"Don't tell me you want to smell... that guy's underwear."

"Won't."

"How could it be a simple smell."

"I'm using my perception."

Jason explained seriously.

In fact, it is.

Jason's perception is 8 times higher than that of ordinary people. This is not just a single five senses, but comprehensive. Even, because Jason is sensitive to 'food', under this comprehensive premise, even the so-called strong sense of smell Hound, not as good as Jason.

Just like the special smells of α-violet and butyric acid, trained hounds are 100,000 to 100 million times stronger than humans.

Jason's sensitivity to the smell of 'food' is the same.

And, for one thing, Jason was far superior to the Hound.

Comprehensive strength and wisdom.

Therefore, if the disappearance of Hui Lijing's sister is really related to 'food', Jason will definitely be able to find clues.

He looked at Jason again.

Hui Lijing thought for a while, and finally nodded.

"follow me."

"You go ahead."

The female boss measured her body and said.

She didn't want to show Jason her sister's underwear here, even if her sister was an asshole.

Similarly, she did not let go of her vigilance against Jason.

So she followed behind with an electric baton, showing Jason the way.

"Go up the stairs."

"It's the first room on the left."

Hui Lijing said.

Jason didn't say much, and entered the room according to what Hui Lijing pointed out.

luxurious!

This is Jason's first impression.

It's hard for you to imagine that there will be such a luxurious room on the second floor of the cafe, which is separated from the 'Mask X Machete X Meat' office by a wall.

It's not decoration, but furnishings and some items.

On the mahogany table, there is a statue of a witch.

The statue is not made of wood or stone, but carved from ivory.

The white is slightly yellowish, making the already lifelike Miko seem to have more skin texture.

Next to the statue of the witch, there are a few ornaments randomly thrown, red gemstones, the size of pigeon eggs, emeralds the size of cat's eyes are inlaid on the gold ring, surrounded by a row of broken diamonds, and a lustrous pearl necklace.

Should be wild pearls!

Jason judged.

His eyes turned to one side.

A huge painting occupies the entire wall.

The painting describes a scene of returning from hunting in winter.

Three hunters with four or five hounds, with the only two prey.

One is a chicken and the other is also a chicken.

Walking on slippery and cold trails in the jungle.

And at the foot of the hillside in the distance, there are towns, where people gather happily, skating, playing ice hockey, and curling on the frozen lake. Even if they fall to the ground, the joy is not affected.

Jason looked at this huge painting. He didn't know how to appreciate such a painting, but just judging from the frame and canvas, it should be an antique, or a famous one.

In addition to this huge painting, there is a wardrobe on one side.

Under Hui Lijing's push and pull, the wardrobe opened directly.

Countless brand-name clothes just rolled around and fell on the floor of the room.

Jason glanced at the closet.

He saw ten gold bars.

The 1,000-gram ones are stacked in the corner of the wardrobe.

They are placed up and down, but not neatly. It can be seen that the owner doesn't care about these gold bars.

Just like the black suitcase on the side.

The suitcase was randomly thrown in. The banknotes inside had already exploded the suitcase, but the owner of the suitcase kept stuffing money into it, which caused the whole suitcase to be completely opened, revealing piles of hundreds of dollars inside. bills.

Jason turned his head to look at Hui Lijing.

At this time, Hui Lijing opened her mouth wide and was completely stunned.

She knew that her sister should be rich.

However, she never expected to be so rich.

"What the hell is this guy up to?"

"How did you get so much money?"

"What a bastard!"

Hui Lijing cursed in a low voice, but the worry in her eyes became more intense.

As Hui Lijing, who dreamed of being a barista but became a detective, she knew very well what the things in front of her represented.

wealth

In some ways yes.

It doesn't take much, just that box of money, you can go to the city center to buy a set of shops.

And more valuable gold, jewelry, paintings, and decorations

She is beyond measure.

However, Hui Lijing is more aware of the meaning of such wealth if it is not obtained through legitimate means.

Murder!

The things here are enough to get her bastard sister into big trouble!

Thinking of this, Hui Lijing's hand holding the electric baton trembled a little.

"You haven't entered this room?"

Jason withdrew his gaze from Hui Lijing, and asked while looking around the room again.

He could see the surprise on Hui Lijing's face.

Also, he could hear Hui Lijing's heartbeat at that moment.

It all proved that the other party didn't know this.

In other words, there is a high probability that the other party has nothing to do with the disappearance of the other party's sister.

Doubt that Hui Lijing is the murderer

Um.

Jason would never believe a stranger's words.

There are many things about thieves shouting "stop thief".

In the 'City That Never Sleeps', it is common to see people pretending to be pitiful after killing people and setting the blame on them.

If you can believe it

You are the next victim.

"That guy won't let me into her house."

Hui Lijing replied.

"Even after disappearance?"

Jason asked again.

"Two weeks ago, I was asked by her to watch the store. She said that I was going to a party in the evening, and there happened to be a small 'Rose Flower' story meeting here, and I needed someone to help."

"I said no at first, but the guy said if I would do her the favor, she would let me sleep on the sofa in the hall downstairs for free."

"So, I agree."

"Who knew that guy would never come back."

Hui Lijing said truthfully.

Sleeping on the couch downstairs

After hearing such a description, Jason directly overturned the previous evaluation of Hui Lijing's "third-rate end" detective, and classified him as "not top-notch". A detective who doesn't even have a place to sleep is really not good. Influential.

The sofa downstairs can make the other party compromise, which is enough to show that they should have no fixed place for a long time.

sleep

Park benches are options.

It should be possible to build a 'home' with cardboard boxes.

They are both sisters, but they are so different!

Looking at the banknotes, gold, jewelry, statues and antique paintings around him, Jason couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Then, he continued to ask.

"What will the 'Rose Flower' story be?"

"And what was that evening party?"

"Did you call the police before?"

After three consecutive questions, Jason stared at Hui Lijing again.

Because, at this time, Hui Lijing's breathing began to become short of breath.

"'The Flower of the Rose' is a novel that was published before. The author is very famous and the writing is very good—everyone says so. For the scumbag, I should give him a C4. How can I endure it silently? The male protagonist is really an asshole. With a girlfriend as good as the female protagonist, he will be attracted by another scumbag. Having feelings for the heroine really pissed me off, if it was me, I would have wrenched off their celestial caps and given him their ashes."

Hui Lijing said indignantly.

Obviously, such a gesture definitely doesn't mean that after reading a page, you can't read it anymore.

I should have read it very carefully, and... I also substituted myself.

Jason judged.

Hui Lijing was angry for a long time before continuing.

"That guy was mysterious and didn't say anything about the party—but I judged that it should be some kind of shady party. She said that last time, so I followed her. I'm not worried about her! I'm just worried that someone will be caught by her Huo Huo, but I lost track of it!"

Hui Lijing said insincerely.

"I called the police too."

"But the action of the police..."

"If it wasn't for my strong request, they wouldn't even want to file a case."

"You know what that bastard said?"

Hui Lijing continued to speak, and then, the female boss who was angry again imitated the way and tone of speech of the police officer who received her at that time.

"It should be an emotional entanglement, right? Maybe I'll be back after two days?"

"Is that what a policeman should say?"

"Also, my detective license was revoked by this bastard."

The more she talked, the more angry Hui Lijing waved her fist into the air.

"Did you hit someone?"

Jason guessed.

"how come?"

"Facing a guy like that, of course I should use the folding stool I'm sitting on and beat him hard."

Hui Lijing said it as a matter of course.

"You just got your detective license revoked instead of going to jail, which means the good guys still make up the majority."

"But the ability is really average!"

"So far there is no news."

Hui Lijing obviously knew that she had done something wrong and was very wrong, but she didn't want to admit it, she pursed her lips and muttered, while Jason scanned the room again after saying this.

He took a deep breath.

He hoped to catch a little scent.

However, there was no 'food' smell.

Instead, the strong smell of perfume filled the place.

The scent of this perfume is mixed with a strong smell of rouge. If you smell it again, it is the woody scent of musk and vetiver. After that, it also has a very light smoky smell. The mixed scent made Jason frown.

The fragrance is too strong.

He couldn't bear it.

Similarly, Hui Lijing couldn't bear it a little bit.

The female boss pushed open the window directly.

The evening afterglow shone straight into the room.

Jason sat in the only clean chair in the room, thinking quietly.

Before, he had guessed that there was a team behind Hui Lixiang.

But Hui Lijing's words just now proved his guess.

Huilixiang has a very professional team behind it.

Even Huilixiang has received similar professional training.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to discover Hui Lijing's stalking and let Hui Lijing return without success.

and…

Jason thought of something, scanned the room again, and finally, his eyes fell on Hui Lijing's face.

"How about it?"

"What did you find?"

Hui Lijing asked impatiently.

"Your sister should have left on her own initiative."

Jason said.

"Of course I left voluntarily... Wait, you mean?"

After Hui Lijing spoke subconsciously, she realized something was wrong.

She thought of something and stared at Jason.

"Exactly what you think."

"She didn't know the reason and chose to leave voluntarily."

"But judging from the fact that the wealth in this room has not attracted anyone who intends to do anything wrong, the environment she is in should not be dangerous, at least the team behind her who is familiar with her identity did not take action."

Jason said.

"How could that guy leave on his own initiative?"

"She managed to get out of her current industry through hard work!"

Hui Lijing still didn't believe it.

"Did you see the arrangement of these things?"

"It's very casual. I can see that your sister doesn't care about it."

"besides… "

"Why does your sister own a coffee shop?"

Jason asked.

Then, without waiting for Hui Lijing to speak, she continued.

"You ever wanted to be a barista?"

"So, she came to the coffee shop."

"She let you live in, probably to let you inherit this cafe, in order to fulfill your wish."

"And these things should also be left to you."

Jason said slowly.

Two awkward sisters.

Is it okay to just say no to something

Going around, it's so troublesome.

Jason thought to himself.

Hui Lijing opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, all the words became one sentence.

"Then where did she go?"

"unconfirmed."

"Maybe she wants to change cities, come to a place where no one knows her, and start over?"

Jason looked for a reasonable explanation.

Hui Lijing obviously couldn't accept such an explanation.

"Asshole."

"I will find her."

Hui Lijing said loudly.

Jason didn't persuade, it was the other party's business, he had finished his part, and the other party decided the rest.

Immediately, Jason turned around and was about to leave.

But the moment he turned around, Jason couldn't help being taken aback.
