1474 The Great Detective

Okay, I found another entry point from this dock worker.

Detective Roque and the police did not waste any time. They just cleaned up the scene and collected clues.

Once the cordon is pulled, the matter will be over for now.

As for the future residence of the dozen or so people in No. 3 Courtyard, they will have to wait until this case is solved before they can return to their original place of residence.

Are you saying you can't go back and live now? Doesn't going back there mean you are destroying the crime scene?

The residents of these handyman compounds are very dissatisfied with this kind of treatment by the police station.

"Damn it, where do you want us people to live?"

"Everyone is dead, why aren't we allowed to continue living there?"

"It's fine if they want to continue killing people and silence them. If they don't let us live here, that would be true silencing."

How can the tenants here own another apartment?

Naturally, they don't have the money to stay in small hotels and hotels. As for renting out a large sum of money and renting another house, they can't even afford it.

Some rooms in these courtyards are inherent assets passed down from generation to generation.

People like Mai Fan and Jack are temporary rental customers.

The landlord who came over after hearing the news told them rudely that it was impossible to refund their rental deposit.

The two of them had no choice but to stand beside the noisy neighbors and wait quietly to see how the matter would be handled.

"Okay, stop arguing." It was the great detective Rock who stood up: "Check this place carefully again, take all the evidence to the police station, and let them live in it again."

"After all, what they said is not unreasonable, the murderer. If it is really to cover up some important crime, they will definitely attack again."

"Maybe it's a good opportunity for us to let them live their lives as usual."

Well, now that the great detective has said so, the police will be happy to save themselves a lot of trouble.

The cordon that had been put up was put back again.

If you ignore the bloodstains on both sides of the outer wall and the black marks at the door of the wall, the courtyard is actually no different from the original one.

When these people dispersed and the exhausted neighbors returned home, they realized that today, from getting up early to noon, they had not done anything serious.

At this time, they began to get busy in a hurry. Those who went to work, those who cooked, and those who let their children out to play, the yard became a mess again.

During this process, Jack acted strangely from beginning to end. Mai Fan was even more vigilant and spent another day with him as if nothing had happened.

This day was still peaceful, and the main mission after coming to this world was still not triggered.

That night, without incident, the Maifan alarm sounded again.

Still Jack.

He sneaked out again at night. When Mai Fan stared at him, he was curious, did this kid not sleep at night?

How could he be so energetic? It's just that his guess was a little wrong. This time, Jack didn't go straight to the red roof.

He actually headed towards Fifth Avenue, where only wealthy areas and high-ranking officials live.

No, no, Mai Fan zoomed in on the map and discovered some details.

Jack's location is indeed Fifth Avenue, but it is not on the main thoroughfare of Fifth Avenue.

You know, it is a residential area with beautiful scenery, complete facilities, tall houses, and the surrounding flowers, plants and trees are also very beautiful.

The most rare thing is that there is a gurgling stream outside the entire residential area.

This creek is different from the sewers in other cities, it is just as dirty and smelly.

It was a source of running water brought down from the mountain. Because of its beauty, the Lord of York City even built a riverside path on the west side.

Many weeping willows have been planted and a lot of grass has been laid. The scenery along the river is extremely beautiful both during the day and at night.

Even late at night, there are no people there. After all, no one wants to sit by the river all night when it is slightly cooler and there is no entertainment.

So what is Jack going there for?

As the map slowly opened, Mai Fan found that Jack's two red dots had touched one spot.

Note that this little dot is red, which is completely opposite to Jack's friendly green state.

Is Jack in danger?

Should he follow over and take a look?

Mai Fan hesitated, but he still picked up the hook.

Since the killer's weapon was taken away by the police as important evidence, this is the most handy weapon Mai Fan can find today.

Whether it was to trigger a mission or to worry about his only friend after coming to this world, Mai Fan had the obligation to go and take a look.

What will happen to Jack at the river?

Will he encounter danger? When he encounters danger, Mai Fan can at least help him. If not, he can escape with Jack.

Mai Fan also moved when he thought of this.

He knew that everyone in the handyman compound was alert tonight, but if he could sneak away without alerting others, if Jack could do it, he would naturally be able to do it too.

Not long after, he arrived at the small river behind the Fifth Street community.

The house for sale did not show up at the beginning, but was hidden in a green tree belt that was about half a person tall.

Mai Fan's eyes had already adapted to the darkness.

He saw Jack and two men in dark suits arguing about something.

Wait, why does it seem like Jack knows these two people?

Ah, the clothes of these two people are so similar to the servants of the weird old man's house described by Detective Rock.

Could it be that Jack has known this weird old man for a long time?

It shouldn't be. If they knew each other, then why did he tell Detective Rock this clue in the first place?

At this time, Mai Fan's superior five senses came into play.

Even though Jack and the two men in black deliberately lowered their voices to talk, Mai Fan still heard the conversation between them.

"Ha, have you been in trouble lately?"

"I didn't expect you guys to be so cruel."

"Just because of this little trouble, you want to kill people and silence them?"

"You know, it's your master, not me, who is responsible for breaking promises."

"I tell you, you must pay according to the price I agreed later."

"This is the price you have to pay for breaking the agreement first."

"If you continue to fail to abide by the agreement and try to silence me by silencing me."

"Then I wouldn't mind providing the famous detective with a few more clues."
