Chapter 9 Persuasion
When Bill's smiling face leaned forward, dangerously deformed, Linn was frightened and still had extra brain capacity to think about how Bill's squinty eyes could manage such an excellent expression.
‘Why did he suddenly look gloomy towards me... [Spring], dead person, [Spring], dead person... My body smells of [Spring], the mysterious person may also need the sexual phase [Spring]... Could it be said? ’
When Lin En was stunned, he had an uncertain guess in his heart. Damn it, it was all his fault for being too smart!
Showing outstanding willpower under pressure, the boy with a somewhat pale face remained calm and did not lose his sense of proportion due to panic.
"Mr. Bill, when the client found us, he mentioned that we were illiterate and suitable for stealing books."
"Then what?" Bill nodded.
"So he doesn't know me, and I don't know him." Lynn believed Bill could understand.
"so what?"
"I recalled that I speculated that the [Abundance Tantra] would only have an impact on those who can understand it. I don't know anything about the extraordinary except the names and prayers of a few righteous gods. If it were not for survival, , How could I work so hard?" Lin En finally came to his senses and defended himself when he explained the situation clearly.
"oh……"
The combined meaning of these words is only one. When the child of a wealthy businessman in trouble is struggling to make a living on the streets and even has food and clothing problems, how could he be together with that unknown mysterious person. As for the possibility of using the mysterious man, there is no way to talk about it. After all, he only knew about these things before. Therefore, Bill was indeed suspicious just now. After all, it was related to extraordinary pollution, and no one could be too careful.
Linn also realized why the other four people died but he did not die and the book was lost. He behaved so smart and sharp in the police station. How could Bill, a smart man, not have reasonable doubts about himself?
"Well, it seems that our little gentleman has no reason to make some dangerous and unfunny jokes with us."
Bill's smile suddenly became bright, and he made a fanning gesture to ask Linn to stop being so nervous.
Bold assumptions, reasonable doubts, not direct action~~
"Then it seems that it was indeed an unexpected coincidence." Bill's smile could always perfectly reflect various emotions. This talent made Linn feel the depression of being maliciously teased. "Actually, through the investigation of the scene, we have roughly restored the incident. It has no direct relationship with you, but there is indeed an unexplainable doubt in your body. You may need to undergo a small test later."
Good guy, so this guy was just pretending to be confused because he just wanted to see his reaction?
However, it seems that my reaction or explanation passed the test.
As for the test, Linn automatically ignored it. He had to get through the difficulties at hand before other people. It was really tiring to deal with this narrow-eyed person.
"Bill." The voice of the woman who was as quiet as a sculpture and stood as straight and steady as a sculpture was cold and cold, like a sharp blade being unsheathed.
"Please continue, we would like to have a closer and deeper understanding of the illegal client." Bill managed his expression well, as if he was not teasing Lynn, and immediately corrected his attitude.
Lin En couldn't help but take another look at the lady who showed her sharpness.
Although they have a lot of doubts in their hearts that they want to ask, these two people are definitely not willing to stay here to listen to their own questions, but to ask questions to understand the situation.
"The client is about 1.75 meters tall. He likes to hold cigarettes with the index and middle fingers of his left hand. He uses pipes less often than cigarettes. The silver ring on his index finger is a rough lightning silver ring, which is a sign of a first-class dock steward. . During the second meeting, his boots left behind the green mud of the Fish Market River, which is the kind of mud that can only be found in the Glock Company's drainage ditch area, which can narrow down the scope of your suspicions."
When Lynn said this, he couldn't help but stop. Bill, who was listening in ecstasy, subconsciously wanted to stand up and shake Lynn's fragile-looking neck to make him spit out all the rest of the words.
"Keep going, don't stop."
The deserted woman was also attracted by Linn's detailed description, and she spoke directly without urging Bill.
"... In addition, judging from the client's accent and wording, he does not know Xiacheng District. He should be a gentleman. His skin is very white and tender and well-maintained." Lin En hesitated for a moment, then put forward his speculation. After saying it, he also thought of the changes in his body.
After hearing this, Bill couldn't help but clapped his hands in appreciation. He had once met the cooperating detective at Elba Field. When the famous detective was thinking about the story, he had a similar temperament to the handsome young man in front of him. After calm thinking, he finally solved the problem. Only speak with certainty after making sure assumptions.
However, Lynn's memory is indeed amazing. If he didn't know that he was a smart man, Bill would have doubted whether he was making it up.
"Are these enough?"
Linn said hesitantly as he still didn't know enough about the scope of the fish market in [Steam City] and the length of Glock's drainage section.
"If it's just a simple arrest, I think that should be enough."
There was obviously something in Bill's words, and Lynn paused for a moment before continuing to ask, not seeing any hint of teasing in his squinting face.
"Do you need me to do anything else?"
"No, no, young sir, it's not that we need you to continue doing anything, but that you need our help. I bet that what makes you feel threatened is definitely not the friendly police officers in the police station, but something more terrifying, exactly the same as the things under the bed that you were afraid of in your childhood."
The things under the bed, here Bill used a proverb from the Kingdom of Albion, which mostly refers to those demons that hide under the bed and harm children and are ignored. In modern times, it has evolved to refer to all dangerous things.
Bill has almost made it clear.
Lin En is not really safe, even if he leaves Elba Field. Lin En stammered twice, and the ominous premonition made him reorganize the information he heard. Soon his eyes condensed and grasped a certain key point.
"Can I know...how did those four people die?"
Before, for the sake of his own life and chastity, Lin En had always ignored this question.
"They died at the hands of an extraordinary creature, the cause of death was being ripped open and drained of blood and spirituality. This creature is called [Demon Spirit]. This monster's habit of hiding and hunting is very cunning and vengeful. It will never let go of its target. It should have been attracted by the ritual you drew. That is a very dangerous move. We found the unique dust left by [Demon Spirit] at all five slaughter sites." Bill's expression changed a little bit, and his eyes became curious when he looked at Lin En.
"So, how did you survive the attack of [Demon Spirit]? And by coincidence, you lost the memory of being attacked by [Demon Spirit]."
Bill's subtext has already shouted into Lin En's ear: Isn't this a little too coincidental?
