Chapter 77 The old thousand who came back from the dead
The brewing work at Damon Manor was in full swing. The four wanderers accepted this simple work from the bottom of their hearts. They were busy in Victor's warehouse during the day, and at night they went back to the fields to light up a bonfire in a simple tent and show off to Pierce.
Look.
The diagnosis sheet was still in Victor's hand, but Father Sang didn't come out to look for it, and Victor didn't ask him, but it was obvious that the other person's condition was getting more serious.
After spending two days, Victor, with the help of the wanderers, finally poured the materials into the cellar to wait for fermentation.
He sent away the four wanderers for the time being, letting them rest for a few days before coming back, and then secretly poured the Danrose fungus into the cellar.
The next step is to wait. If nothing else happens, Victor will be able to bottle the wine in three or four days at most.
However, as soon as he sent away the wanderers, two guests came to the town.
The two men rode horses and greeted the farmer-like Victor from afar.
Victor has changed into the work clothes in the warehouse these days, blue overalls and a thin red top. He wears rubber boots on his calves and holds a pitchfork in his hand. He looks very old-fashioned, and the other party almost didn't.
Can recognize him.
"Mr. Victor!"
Hearing the shout, Victor raised his head and blocked the dazzling sunlight with his hands.
One of the two people who came over was Donnie, and the other one was actually Henry.
Seeing this familiar young agent, Victor showed a surprised expression: "Inspector Henry, why are you here? Has the Intelligence Bureau successfully captured Augusta?"
Hearing the inquiry, Henry looked bitter. When he saw Father Sang lying under the shade of the trees, his expression became surprised again.
"Why are Father Sang here with you?"
"He said he couldn't keep up with your schedule and had nowhere to go, so he could only come to my place to eat and drink." Victor explained slightly unhappily.
Henry had a strange expression. After he and Donnie led the horse over and tied it up, he turned to Victor and said, "I want to talk to you about something."
Victor put down the pitchfork in his hand, walked to Henry, and listened to him talk about what happened in the past few days.
It turned out that after the accident that night, Chief Inspector Josh was initially planning to gather all his strength to hunt down the Conor Gang. However, before setting off, he arranged a special task for Henry alone - asking him to go to Dandelion.
Records related to the police investigation into the train robbery case.
Thomas did not provide detailed clues about this incident. Josh believed that Augusta would not kill Thomas' personal consultant by mistake. There must be a purpose. After all, judging from the other party's methods that night, he was a special person.
A difficult villain.
The Dandelion Police Station is much larger than the local police station. After Henry provided his identity as an agent of the Intelligence Bureau, he still received strong cooperation from the local police.
He investigated the relevant records of the robbery and murder case, the names and identities of most of the deceased, and even looked through the victims' belongings that were recovered at the time. When he looked at the belongings, he found that a numbered bag was empty.<
/p>
The officers at the police station were surprised. They remembered that there was something in the bag, but no one could remember the specific relics it contained.
"It's weird, right?" Henry explained all this to Victor, then lit a cigarette and handed one to him and Donnie.
"Only one item is missing?" Victor asked after borrowing the fire.
Henry nodded, and said doubtfully: "Dandelion is not a small place like Walding. Their police quality is much better than that of the sheriff, and they will not make such low-level mistakes."
After hearing this, Victor looked at Donnie teasingly, but the latter had not yet realized what Henry meant. His little husky-like eyes were silly.
"Did someone steal it? He was afraid of being discovered by others." Victor thought of it logically.
"Yes, like you, I thought of this first, so I launched an investigation and visited several police officers associated with Cornwall Energy Company, but did not find that they were likely to commit crimes, so I checked again
Records of recently imprisoned prisoners, guess what I found?"
"What did you find?" Victor was curious.
Henry took out a card, the Ace of Spades, from his pocket.
"Remember Black Jack?"
Victor stared at the cards for a moment, letting Henry speak directly.
"Do you still remember that crook named Kino?"
Hearing this, Victor's expression changed slightly: "You mean, Kino was arrested by the police in Dandelion?"
"No, it's just that when I was checking prisoner records, I accidentally got clues about his sightings. A police officer once told me that he had seen Chino sneaking around the police station. I don't know.
What I want to do is just after the night of Kaleidoscope, before I go to check the information. It’s strange! Isn’t Kino already dead?”
This information shocked Victor even more. He and Henry looked at each other, and both of them thought of the mysterious creature swimming like a crazy dog in the lake.
"This guy is well-known in Dandelion because of his gambling skills, his bad mouth, and of course his artistic talent. In short, the police officer who provided the clues recognized him."
Henry began to speculate.
"So I suspect that the theft of the relics has something to do with that guy. I still haven't figured out how he changed the cards under my nose."
Crooks and thieves are the same kind of people, Victor secretly slanders them.
"There is a possibility, but the guy has no motive. Why would he take the risk to do this? What does it have to do with him?"
Victor's question left Henry unable to explain. Anyway, the series of events related to the Cornwall Gang and Cornwall Energy Company are full of mysteries.
At this time, Downey, who had been listening for a long time, suddenly spoke.
"I said, are you interested in Cornwall Energy's iron smelting plant? I remember you were looking for a miner last time."
Victor and Henry both finished smoking, and they both looked at Donnie at the same time.
Danny laughed dryly, his face still filled with a strong sense of awkwardness.
"We can go to the old ironworks site to investigate. It is now occupied by a group of refugees. We can find a reason to drive them away."
Originally, when the search for Vincent failed, we should have gone to the ironworks to have a look, but we were notified by the two trainee agents at that time and rushed to Dandelion the next day.
Now the work at hand can be put on hold. The grain is fermenting, and even with the help of Danross fungus, it will take some time. Victor can just go and do other things.
At this time, Henry walked towards Father Sang, who was lying leisurely, and seemed to want to invite him to join him.
"The little bastard finally remembered me...ahem..."
Father Sang teased the other party there.
Henry heard the other party's cough and frowned: "I heard you went to the clinic?"
"It's just an old problem..." Father Sang waved his hand pretending to be relaxed.
The diagnosis sheet was still in Victor's hand. He was hesitating whether to tell Henry, but after thinking about it, he still didn't.
If Father Sang is willing, he will inform the other party himself.
"The chief inspector needs your help now, you should assist him." Henry took off his hat and put it on his chest.
Father Sang refused bluntly: "Forget it...ahem, that bastard no longer regards me as one of his own,...ahem, I'd better be more comfortable with you, aren't you going to some ironworks?"
