Reiner, who was about to take a bite, stopped what he was doing: "What a big secret..."
Lynn informed Reiner of everything he had learned in the past half day, and concluded: "...Upton's intuition was right, the problem lies within the hotel. It's just that he still underestimated the old
Hotel Nanyue, the secrets there are definitely beyond imagination."
"Old South York Hotel, Marquis Aldrich, the people hiding in the dark who want to kill you...interesting..." Reiner became interested in the case that Linn was responsible for.
"Do you know anything about Marquis Aldrich or the Aldrich family?" Lynn asked.
"I know there is such a family in the imperial capital, but I have never dealt with them." Reiner shook his head slightly, "If you want to know more about this, you can ask Upton and Ulysses."
"You can't ask them." Linn quickly vetoed.
"Why?"
Lynn explained the reason: "Do you think they are egoists?"
"Without a doubt, yes."
"So, do you think they will allow us to check on Marquis Aldrich?" Lynn asked again.
Reiner was speechless, but then he suddenly realized.
The Aldrich family has a good reputation in the imperial capital, and even the General Public Security Bureau has to give it some slack. If not for this, Marquis Aldrich would have been arrested in countless previous scandals.
In other words, if they seek help from Ulysses Upton, not only will they not get any benefits, but they will be dissuaded from giving up the investigation of this case.
After four or five seconds of silence, Lin En said: "So we can only investigate and solve this matter ourselves. It is best to wait until Ulysses and others know about it, and everything has been settled."
"It makes sense." Reiner agreed with Linn's view.
Only when the raw rice is cooked can Ulysses and the others have nothing to say.
But this also means that they will not be able to get any help from the General Administration of Public Security, and this uniform will even become an obstacle.
Linn ate something leisurely: "Also, we must ensure confidentiality during our investigation. If Marquis Aldrich notices that a sheriff is paying attention to him, then he will have a fight with Ulysses.
Say hello, and we'll get into trouble too."
"We?" Reiner noticed Lynn's wording, "Have you decided to focus on your case?"
"I wasn't sure at first, but after listening to what you said, I think my case is more feasible and worth doing." Lin En said, "After all, your case is basically confirmed to be caused by the same kind of people. This happened not just a few days ago."
It can be solved smoothly within."
"Are you sure there was no similar involvement in the Hind family tragedy?"
"We're not completely sure yet, but even if there is, we still have the initiative." Lin En said.
There is no doubt about this.
They had done a lot of analysis on the arson case at the Hard Street Garden Restaurant, but they still couldn't identify the suspects.
The tragedy of the Hinde family was different. The roots were in the Old South York Hotel, and the people who wanted to kill Lynn were among them.
If the murderer is the same kind, then as long as Linn can get in, [Peeper's Eye] can help him locate the target immediately.
Once the target is determined, even if the opponent is of the same kind, he is sure to give it a try.
"The next most important problem that needs to be solved is to enter the Old South York Hotel?" After thinking about it, Liner agreed with Linn's point of view and supported solving the case in his hand first.
"Yes." At this point, Linn became more serious. "The manager said that Marquis Aldrich will rest in the hotel all day today, and other matters will be resolved tomorrow. But I feel that the more this is the case,
, the more we have to go in and investigate today."
Reiner made it clear: "If you suspect that the Marquis of Aldrich and the Old South York Hotel are behind something, it's the easiest time to find out the clues when they are all around."
"That's right." Lin En raised the corner of his mouth, "If we foolishly wait until tomorrow and give them time to deal with us, there is a high probability that we will return empty-handed."
"If you don't want to alert the enemy, you can only sneak in secretly. Do you have any countermeasures?"
"Not yet. I came back to meet you. Firstly, I want to hear the progress of the arson case. Secondly, I want to discuss with you how we can enter the Old South Hotel quietly and logically, and try to dig out all the secrets inside.
come out."
"It's easier to sneak in at night, but it should be as early as possible." Reiner pondered.
"Don't worry too much about thinking. Sometimes the more anxious you are, the more confused your brain will be." Lin En was good at regulating her emotions and began to enjoy lunch leisurely.
Reiner took a deep breath and ate the food: "It's mainly because it's the first time I have so many things in my mind. I used to be alone and just take care of myself. I even feel that every day is relaxed. Now I'm three
The big forces, plus our missions, and our goals..."
"So we must stay relaxed." Lin En warned, "Relaxation does not mean being loose, it has a positive effect on us. Maintaining a tight state for a long time may make us highly concentrated and less prone to mistakes, but it is very easy to
A fast state will plummet, dragging down everything."
"I know this very well." Reiner smiled bitterly, "But it's not that easy to do."
"Then don't think about anything else and eat!" Lin En laughed and concentrated on eating lunch regardless.
Seeing Linn eating non-stop and wanting to say something, Reiner had no choice but to eat too.
Twenty minutes later, the two returned to the office.
"My senses are always on, feel free to chat." Linn sat down and comforted Reiner.
Reiner still glanced at Upton's office not far away uneasily, and gently closed and locked the door: "This mission is over, I have to make up for my shortcomings in perception."
"Now that we have formed a partnership, I feel that we have become a whole. In subsequent exchanges, in addition to considering ourselves, we must also pay attention to the whole. So leave it to me to continue to improve the perception, and you can focus on making up for the shortcomings in other aspects." Lin
Well suggested.
"That makes sense. Should I also prepare a life-saving ability?" Reiner leaned against the window. "In the past, we almost never encountered opponents in Tswold City, and there was no sense of crisis. Now we have encountered them not long after we came to the emperor."
There are several divine beings who can't be beaten and defeated, and they can't run away. I really feel a little unsure."
"I think it's okay." Linn agreed.
"Haha, it's not too late to study these when the task is almost completed. Let's first talk about how to sneak into the Old Nanyue Hotel later and conduct a comprehensive investigation inside." Reiner returned to the topic.
Lin En said: "I have an ability that is close to teleportation, so it is not a problem to enter it at extremely fast speeds. I can also manipulate iron products, and it is easy to control the switch of door locks."
"I can control many types of metals, but the control precision is not as good as yours. I can only twist them and cannot make them move or fly arbitrarily." Reiner shrugged, "But I can use the six-pointed astrolabe to drag us directly to the rooftop.
"
"This is a good idea." Lin En had an idea. "It's difficult to go up from the bottom, but if we go directly down from the rooftop, they will definitely be surprised."
"Yes, especially if the door to the rooftop is locked, it is useless to us." Reiner crossed his arms across his chest, "The only problem is that it is also a prime location. We can climb up from the outside using a six-pointed astrolabe, so it is difficult to guarantee
Unnoticed."
"Let's do some field research." Lin En moved her waist, "Let's go?"
"Set off!"
The two left as they agreed, with Lynn driving the car, and arrived at the street next door to the Old South York Hotel at 1:30 p.m.
"Just park the car here." Lin En glanced at the tall building not far away, picked up the casual clothes he brought with him from the back seat and started changing, "If you can avoid attracting the other party's attention, it's best not to attract it."
"There are relatively few people here." Reiner took a set of clothes, changed his shirt, and looked outside.
Just after noon, there were at least two-thirds fewer pedestrians than during the peak period.
"If we come a little earlier, there will be fewer people here in time for dinner, but I won't say these useless words now." Lin En quickly changed his clothes and turned off the car.
After Lin En also changed, the two got out of the car and walked along the roadside to the side of the Old Nanyue Hotel.
There are entrances and exits at the front and rear of the hotel. If you use your extraordinary abilities at the entrances and exits, you will really want others to see you.
Only the side alleys are the safest.
However, what surprised them was that the entrances to the alleys on the side of the hotel were actually sealed.
"I don't know if it's just like this, or if it's just to create a safety isolation zone to ensure the absolute privacy of the hotel." Lin En sighed.
"Go next door." Reiner didn't show any emotion. He and Lin lowered their heads and passed through the main entrance of the Old Nanyue Hotel. After crossing another building, they finally saw a narrow and dark corridor, "Enter
here."
"You mean, go up to the rooftop of this building first, and then go to the Old South York Hotel?" Lynn asked.
"Well, that's all we can do." Reiner patted Linn and said, "See if there's anyone over there. If there's no one, we'll go up as fast as we can."
Lin En quickly stepped forward and confirmed that there were no passers-by near the other end of the alley.
Reiner did not hesitate, he held Lin En's shoulder with one hand, and a six-pointed astrolabe with a golden light instantly appeared on the soles of their feet.
"This thing is best used during the day. It's so bright at night, it's hard not to be noticed." Lin En said with a smile.
"Yeah." Reiner chuckled and controlled the six-pointed astrolabe to start rising.
This building is six or seven meters lower than the adjacent Old Nanyue Hotel. After taking four or five seconds to reach the rooftop of the building, Linn and Reiner quickly walked to the side of the Old Nanyue Hotel and repeated the same trick, successfully
Arriving at the scene of the tragedy involving the Hinde family.
"Huh, it went pretty well." Lin En left the six-pointed astrolabe, walked slowly to the edge of the rooftop, and looked at the street below.
The passers-by walked normally, and no one noticed that they used a method that ordinary people could not understand to reach the top of the more than 40-meter-high building in a very short time.
