The sound of closing the door echoed in Kieran's ears, and the lights projected from the ceiling seemed to shake under the huge impact.
mechanical.
heavy.
The closing of the door under the control of precision machinery, as well as the gears hidden in the walls and underground, easily appeared in Qin Ran's mind.
"More defensive and secretive than expected, right?"
Sitting on the only bed in the room, Webster waved to Qin Ran, and the shackles on his wrists shook accordingly, making a rattling sound.
"Um."
Qin Ran nodded without denying it.
Everything here is indeed beyond his expectations.
Just like Webster in front of him.
The other party was even more special than he had guessed.
Qin Ran's eyes swept across the welded metal bed, and finally settled on Webster's old face. Compared with the anger and sadness on the other side's face when they met last time, the relaxed and smiling face at this time However, it seems much more natural, and the other party is far more cooperative than imagined.
"Thank you for visiting me."
"At this time, I am afraid that only you can come to see me."
"I originally hoped that both of us would cooperate to track down the murderer who killed my son."
"However… "
"I found something."
"So, I started in advance."
There was no need for Qin Ran to ask, Webster just spoke on his own. While speaking, the other party swung his wrist vigorously, as if he was reliving the scene of stabbing Hardy Lin to death.
"Very fun!"
"It was more enjoyable than expected!"
The other party added a sentence.
"What did you find out?"
Qin Ran asked with interest.
"Interesting thing."
"However, it doesn't matter anymore. I have to avenge my revenge, and I have no regrets."
"In the days to come, I will quietly wait for death to come."
"besides… "
"Thank you for visiting."
Webster didn't answer, but shrugged his shoulders. He just lay down on the metal bed, and, closing his eyes, seemed to lose interest in the conversation.
Qin Ran glanced at the other party, without hesitation, turned around and pressed the communicator button on the wall.
"Open the door."
Qin Ran said so.
And just after Qin Ran finished speaking, Webster who was lying on the bed suddenly spoke again.
"For example, if you have time, sir, please go to the cemetery and send Quake a bouquet of flowers for me."
"If you don't have time, forget it."
Qin Ran didn't express his consent, nor did he express his disapproval.
When the cell door opened, he walked out noncommittally.
Will stood against the wall, and when Kieran came out, the old consultant stood up straight.
"Although I know it's impossible for you to listen to me, I still want to say that Webster's assassination of the Speaker of the House of Lords, Hardy Lynn, is no longer a personal matter, but concerns the whole of Idles."
"I hope you don't continue to interfere."
The old consultant said sincerely.
"Do you believe what he said?"
Qin Ran asked back.
"The evidence is in front of me, so I naturally believe it."
The old advisor emphasized.
"People are always willing to believe what they think."
After Qin Ran finished speaking lightly, he didn't have any interest in opening his mouth anymore. He strode towards the elevator where he came.
Qin Ran left the police station unimpeded all the way.
He didn't go far. After seeing a flower shop, he walked straight over.
In the afternoon tea flower garden, the four characters are carved on a long wooden board. The wooden board is suspended by a 7-shaped black metal bracket, which just protrudes to the side of the road, so that people who pass by can just see it.
jingle!
Qin Ran pushed the door open and entered, the doorbell was ringing and melodious.
"welcome."
"What do you need?"
The waiter warmly greeted her, a girl with an ordinary appearance but a sweet voice, wearing black casual clothes and an apron, with her hair coiled up high, holding scissors and cut flowers in her hands.
"White flowers."
Qin Ran said concisely.
"Chrysanthemum, lily and calla lily, which one do you want?"
The waiter pointed to the flower stand.
"As you please."
Qin Ran replied.
Apparently, the waiter seldom encountered such customers as Qin Ran. After giving Qin Ran a strange look, he combined the three kinds of flowers just mentioned according to his own ideas and handed them to Qin Ran.
"A total of 35."
Qin Ran silently took out the exact amount of money and handed it to the other party, then turned and left.
"Thank you for your patronage."
The waiter said, watching Qin Ran's disappearing back.
When it was confirmed that Qin Ran had disappeared, the smile on the waiter's face disappeared instantly, and she walked quickly towards the back of the shop. At the same time, the apron on her body was also quickly taken off, and she put it on in the corridor again unconsciously. On the body of a real florist.
The other party will wake up in a while.
After waking up, he would only think that he had fallen and fell into a coma.
When people don't have an answer, they will always find out the right answer for themselves, and everything is so taken for granted.
Even if it is an illusion.
Just like she thought that this mission could be completed as smoothly as before.
…
The cemetery is located on the side of the central park in Edsburgh, quiet but not remote.
Naturally, the people who can enter this cemetery are all rich or expensive. Ordinary people are not even qualified to ask the price here.
Of course, there is no qualification to enter.
Holding flowers, Qin Ran avoided the guards and entered the cemetery from one side, passing through the shadows formed by trees and tombstones under the sunlight.
He's looking for Quick Webster's tombstone.
This was not a difficult task for Kieran, especially when there was such an obvious 'signature' as Mill standing beside Quick Webster's tombstone.
"As I said, my identity and my ability can solve many troubles you don't want to touch, including but not limited to knowing the conversation between you and Webster, and entering here."
Mier hugged her chest, and didn't mind squeezing that graceful arc out of a depression, making it look even more thrilling.
Qin Ran didn't answer, as if he couldn't see the consultant girl, he put the bouquet in his hand in front of the tombstone.
There is a photo of Quick Webster on the tombstone.
A young man with a sunny smile even in black and white.
But anyone who sees this photo will feel pity.
Because this is a cemetery.
It is the resting place of the dead.
And the other party
too young.
Too young to know how dangerous and... vicious the real world is.
Qin Ran looked away from the photo and began to scan his surroundings.
Seeing Qin Ran's movements, Mier, who respected the dead, spoke again.
"I've looked for it, and there's no..."
The counselor girl stopped abruptly before she finished speaking.
because…
Qin Ran kicked down the tombstone.
The footprints made of black soil happened to be printed on the photo of the young man.
Under the sunlight, the mud-covered photos looked particularly dazzling.
