Chapter 232 The Dancer's Confession (3rd Update)

Evans thought of the fresh and warm stack of white crown banknotes and the more banknotes in the bag.

This didn't look like a reward. If it was a reward, it should be put in an envelope, easy to seal and carry. If it was put in the bag in a mess, it might not only be lost or damaged, but also cause unnecessary disputes.

And the newly taken money was even more impossible - there was no reason to hide it directly in the backpack. Besides, a small town like Muwan County couldn't easily take out so much money.

If we judge from the texture and material of the clothes... then the money should belong to the man who was shot in the back. That is, the owner of Aiwas's coat, pants, shirt, and sweater.

The coat was intact, but there was a gunshot wound on the shirt and sweater that went through the back. And the wound was in the middle of the back, and there was not much blood. It means that his clothes were taken off shortly after the injury.

The couple claimed that Agni was a murderer and seemed to know him - they were either liars, smugglers, or fake medicine sellers. In short, they were definitely not serious people, and they recognized Agnes' face at first sight.

This means that Agnes is either very famous or they have just seen Agnes' face not long ago. For strangers who need to introduce themselves, being able to be impressed by a stranger's face and react almost instantly to who Agnes is... means that they should have just learned about Agnes not long ago.

In this case, Agnes's statement that "I am a teacher and I am traveling with my daughter" is naturally unreliable.

But without ever meeting Dai Ya, they relied on Agnes' one-sided statement and were sure that Agnes was followed by a "noisy little guy"... and were even willing to sell Aiwas an expensive potion to calm her down.

——In summary, there is only one possibility.

"Agnes" is a wanted kidnapper or a prison escapee, and this name should be his real name. '6''9''s''h''u''x''.''c''o''m'There was no television or radio in this era, so the couple should have seen Agnes' identity in the newspaper not long ago.

Obviously, Agnes got the ransom. But Daya still followed him.

And Daya said she had a dream that her father took off his clothes and swam in the river.

- Could it be that Agnes stabbed him in the back while he took off his coat. Then after Agnes took off his clothes, his body was thrown into the river?

And just as Aiwas forgot this memory, Daya also forgot this memory.

This can explain the money in the bag, the gunshot wound on the clothes, Daya's dream and the abnormality on his body.

There is only one thing that makes Aiwas a little confused.

Why is Daya still following him? Or... why hasn't he killed Daya yet?

While Merlin was chatting awkwardly with the extremely enthusiastic dancer, Aiwas stood aside with his eyes narrowed and fell into thought.

- There must be a reason for so many of them to gather here in the storm. Maybe there may be no reason in reality, just pure coincidence, but since this history will be extracted and modified into a ritual, it must have a reason and connection.

This is just like seeing a very annoying person in a movie or TV series, you will at most think about how he will be defeated later; but if you see this kind of person in Detective Conan, then you can start to think about who the murderer is.

According to the superficial identity, there is indeed no connection between them.

But if "Agni" is regarded as a kidnapper, a murderer... or a prisoner who kidnapped a little girl.

Aiwass keenly noticed a problem hidden under the identity.

——The wanted news of "Agni" was published in the "Bull and Harbor" newspaper, and the couple saw the newspaper and knew themselves; Merlin is now playing the role of a reporter for "Bull and Harbor"; and this old supervisor should also be chasing after himself. All of them have a reason to gather together.

Then the question is.

What is this dancer doing here?

Or... is she really a stripper?

In this case, who is she most likely to be?

Aiwass's heart moved, and he vaguely guessed.

Agni is not a good person in the first place. The couple was the same. They were not good people, whether they were fake drug dealers or smugglers. The real identity of this reporter was Jacob Alexander, the founder of the Scaleless Hand. He liked to kill people by curses and was a hired killer in a sense.

And the old supervisor played by Pure White -

He came here alone... So what about his griffin?

Besides, griffins are not afraid of storms, even mixed-blood griffins. After all, the griffin's means of attack are storms and thunder.

Or...

Is he really an inspector?

Or, is he just wearing leather armor and holding an elven dagger... but not an inspector at all?

From this perspective, it seems that they are not good things except Dai Ya. So who could this dancer with a plain face and a good figure who is active in rural areas be?

Aiwass had no evidence. But he could test them one by one.

"I have something to say to this lady."

Suddenly, Aiwass said to the reporter and the inspector.

"Speak alone?"

The reporter asked, "Do you need me to be there?"

"No need, you can go out too."

"Ok, no problem."

The reporter responded simply, then stopped his conversation with the dancer, took the old supervisor and left.

The old supervisor seemed a little confused, but he did not resist the reporter. Instead, he followed him and left obediently.

"Sir, are you here to discuss business with me?"

The dancer was alone with the strong Agni, but still had no fear.

She just came over with a smile and gently put her right hand on Aiwass's chest: "The price is negotiable..."

Aiwass did not hold her hand, but asked: "Do you know me?"

"Are you something famous? Star of the football team?"

The dancer said with a smile, disapproving.

But Aiwass shook his head and just whispered a few words in her ear. The dancer's expression suddenly changed.

Aiwass's first words are: "Shadow is our mother, poison and medicine are our sisters."

Immediately afterwards, he said: "Master Cyrilx sends his regards to you."

Then, Aiwass asked again: "Do you know me now?"

The dancer looked at Aiwass in surprise. She hesitated for a while, then took out a lipstick from her arms: "Do you know what this is?"

——Very good, I guessed it right the first time.

Aiwass originally thought that if he guessed wrong this time, he would continue to try one by one. Anyway, when she got to the next level, she couldn't remember anything.

And this is key information that players who normally clear the level are absolutely impossible to obtain - in other words, this is at least a hidden clue.

He took the lipstick cautiously, being careful not to touch it. Seeing his gesture, the dancer breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at its dark red luster, Aiwass asked uncertainly: "Is it [love]?"

"Yes, my brother. Be careful not to touch it."

The dancer breathed a sigh of relief and put back her lipstick.

She thought for a moment and then replied: "The identity you are using now should be Agni Shiva, who was imprisoned for robbing a bank. He escaped from prison three days ago and kidnapped the banker's daughter Daya... Why do you use This identity?

"Or is there something wrong with your memory?"

"I actually suspect that there is something wrong with everyone's memory - I just had a hallucination and thought I was really Daiya's father. I once doubted that I was still myself, until I saw you."

Aiwass said seriously: "In fact, I suspect that we are all in a dream now. If you don't recall, what did you forget?"

Hearing this, the dancer's expression became serious.

She frowned and thought for a while, but still couldn't remember.

She asked: "You mean, there is something wrong with this hotel?"

But Aiwass just asked: "What are you doing here?"

"I'm here..."

the dancer blurted out.

But before she finished speaking, she gradually became surprised.

"What did you originally want to say?"

"...I want to say that I came here to take shelter from the rain," the dancer frowned, "but it's unlikely..."

Aiwass directly stretched out his hand to hold down the dancer's arm, and ordered with a nonchalant attitude: "Give me a quick way to win your trust. I suspect you will forget all this at any time."

"I am a 'honey badger' and I have only been in Muwan County for two weeks. These two are enough."

The dancer still maintained basic caution: "Is this how the Scaleless Hand joined your investigation team?"

"Yes, Jacob and I are investigating the matter. But don't reveal my identity."

Aiwass nodded, with a scary smile on his scorched face: "Well, see you soon, sisters."

"See you soon, brother."
