"oh!"
Xia De's physical fitness is too strong, so the opponent was knocked down. The stranger who was knocked down by Xia De let out a cry of pain, if he hadn't been pulled, he would have almost fallen to the ground. It's not that the other party intends to blackmail Xia De, but that the other party is too old.
"Feel sorry."
Xia De slightly raised his head to apologize, while the old gentleman who was bumped by him shook his head and said nothing.
Xia De's pupils shrunk slightly, and the old gentleman in front of him who seemed not to attract attention was actually an acquaintance. It was he who had just thought an hour ago that the Carson Rik linguist who lived on the fourth floor of the Xikar Hotel, Lu Professor El Higgins.
Without showing the surprise in his heart, Shade helped Professor Higgins pick up the dropped hat, and then continued to walk forward.
[Not curious? 】
"Of course I'm curious..."
Even though he said this, Xia De still did not turn his head:
"Help me take a look, is he parked at the door of warehouse No. 18?"
[No, he continued to move forward. 】
"Sure enough, be cautious."
Shard turned right into the alley that joined Punjab Street. Standing in the alley and counting 30 numbers, when he walked out of the alley, Professor Higgins was no longer visible on the street.
I stopped the little boy who sold the newspaper and bought a copy of this morning's "Xikal Morning News". Then he entered the tobacco shop on the street, thinking about buying some tobacco leaves for the priest to smoke with a pipe, as a thank you for the thaumaturgy he provided. By the way, you can also ask Priest Augustus to meet this Sunday.
This Sunday, Shad will go with Sister Devlin to meet the boy who is said to be able to see through death. After meeting Priest Augustus again, Luvia can use two or three coins to divination whether Xia De really met the chosen one that day.
Although the suspects are still limited to three people, it also means that it is possible to know whether the current guess is correct.
After all, they don't have extra coins to try one by one.
While shopping in the tobacco store, Shade's eyes were still looking through the shop window, observing the No. 18 warehouse diagonally opposite. Sure enough, about twenty minutes later, Professor Higgins stepped out of the warehouse door with almost the same movement as Shad just now, pressing his hat, and then walked towards the street against the wall without looking back.
This proves that Shade's guess is correct, and Professor Higgins is also a gray glove. Compared with twenty minutes ago, he only had one more black suitcase in his hand.
"Receiving the goods, it's just a suitcase? What can I put in it?"
[So, do you want to chase? 】
This time, Xia De didn't say he wasn't interested. Before the real goods appeared, he didn't want to touch the goods himself and get into trouble. But now the cargo has appeared, and it appears to be just a suitcase.
He was really curious about what it was, but he was still weighing in his heart whether keeping up would get him into other troubles.
"However, there is no information in that pen. How did Professor Higgins know the location and time of the warehouse?"
After hesitating for a moment, Xia De still chose to follow. If the professor went straight to the train station and left the Kingdom of Delarion, then Xia De would act as if he didn't know anything. But if the professor returned to the hotel, then Shad would probably decide whether to see what was in that suitcase according to the situation.
"It's four o'clock in the afternoon. Leave Middlehill Castle whatever happens by five-thirty. That way, get to Quill Street at six-thirty, ask Dorothy out to dinner, and tell Lacey It’s about the quantity of goods in Ya’s warehouse.”
Xia De made the arrangements, so he walked forward quickly and followed the figure of Professor Higgins.
In fact, for this Carson Rik agent, the safest way is to immediately take the suitcase and return to the United Kingdom of Carson Rik at the southern foot of the Rommel Mountains. But he didn't choose to do this, but actually returned to the Xikar Hotel.
Xia De purposely dawdled behind for five minutes before entering the Xikar Hotel. I thought the professor had already returned to his room on the fourth floor, but he didn't expect that the professor was actually sitting in the corner of the first floor, talking with a strange man with that suitcase.
The stranger looked about thirty years old, with blond hair clinging to his scalp, and his skin was very fair, but it seemed to be an unhealthy white. He was wearing a dirty black coat and his boots were covered in mud.
When Xia De saw the other party for the first time, red blood energy rose from the other party's body almost immediately, and then condensed on the top of the other party's head into a cute, blood-red little bat symbol.
Only Xia De could observe this scene, he was slightly surprised, and then
Only then did he realize that this was the last reception, the vampire **** added a new effect to his [Blood Echo], that is, he could easily identify vampires. UU Reading www. uukanshu.com
"This identification method is really simple."
Xia De took another look at the little bat symbol floating above the opponent's head, then walked to the counter to ask for drinks. The owner, Mr. Thales, certainly remembered "Mr. John Watson" who helped him deal with the police, greeted him very familiarly, and recommended today's special wine to him.
At this time, Xia De probably understood how Professor Higgins learned about the warehouse.
Whether blood-sucking species belong to the undead race is still controversial in the circle of magicians, but they are indeed good at abilities such as psychics. Therefore, if Professor Higgins can find a way to break into the police station and steal the pen, of course he can also find a way to get the vampire to help him psychic the corpse.
"Speaking of which, the deputy chief of the police department did say that on the night the pen was stolen, the body shot to death on the fourth floor was also moved. It turned out to be a psychic... Really interesting, is this Professor, did you come into contact with vampires through the pair of uncles and nephews living on the fourth floor? Or, the Gray Gloves themselves are connected to the local vampire population?"
Guessing in his heart, Shade sat at the counter, chatting with the owner, Mr. Thales, about the earthquake that happened in the mountainous area yesterday. He planned to wait until Professor Higgins finished chatting with the strange vampire. He could try his luck with [Echo of the Past] and try to eavesdrop on their conversation.
But the conversation between the professor and the vampire was not harmonious, and after a while, the two had a dispute. The man with a pale face who looked very depressed stood up abruptly and said loudly:
"This is impossible, you promised me 200 pounds! If you don't pay now, you don't want to leave!"
