Chapter three hundred and seventy fifth meeting place
The meeting place of the Unsolved Mysteries Society is in the back kitchen of a French restaurant, which should be the most upscale restaurant in the entire town.
After Xunrel Jezebeth expressed her sincerity, Xing Ze accepted the invitation. After all, if he wanted to get more information, he could only ask the president of the association here.
Yes, the Unsolved Mysteries Society has branches all over the world. Its headquarters is located in Belfast, the capital of Northern Ireland. It was founded in the 15th century by some local church monks. After gradually growing, it was established in Belfast.
The association was formally established in the Grand Cathedral and regarded the church as the association's headquarters.
Another thing that moved Xing Ze was that the association had stopped a cult ritual in Digel Village seventy years ago and accepted an investigation organization established by the leaders who destroyed the ritual at that time.
Of course, the association has many other heroic deeds, but none of them have much appeal to Xing Ze. Only this incident aroused his strong interest.
Because according to Mendez's words in the dream, the cult ritual seventy years ago was destroyed by a group of time-traveling investigators led by a messenger like him.
And after the incident, the courier also established an investigator organization, but unexpectedly the organization was absorbed by the association.
For Xunrel Jezebeth, these deeds are just chips used to convince Xing Ze that the Unsolved Mysteries Association has no malicious intentions. But for Xing Ze, understanding the past of his predecessors can make him
Understand better what all this is about.
Perhaps, the information and clues left by the messenger at the association headquarters can help him find a way to return to his own earth.
As for what Xunrel Jezebeth is planning, Xing Ze has no idea. He still can't completely trust this woman. No matter how good a bargaining chip she gives, it is a fatal temptation in Xing Ze's eyes.
.
On the way here, Jezebeth and Xing Ze chatted about the investigators, and she was assigned to deal with the mess left by those investigators.
Kent was still not found, and the injured Lenny and Mike were sent to the hospital. After their condition stabilized, they planned to withdraw from the mission, and Selina took the initiative to stay and look after the two of them.
Yuri had no intention of giving up the mission or continuing. He followed the police to investigate Emberhead Village. They found Kelly's body in the woods near the village. The poor girl seemed to have been attacked by a wild beast and was killed.
Torn into pieces.
It is common for investigators to die. Jezebeth didn't even frown when she said these things. She looked very calm, as if those people were just tools.
When they walked into the kitchen, there was only one chef in the whole place. Jezebeth introduced him as the chef here. The hotel has not yet been developed, so there is no one there.
The chef simply said hello to them, and then got busy making his fried steak. Xing Ze followed Jezebeth to the chef's office.
A small table was set up inside, and three people were sitting around the table, enjoying red wine and appetizers. Xing Ze quickly looked at the three people.
The one sitting in the middle is the oldest, looking to be in his fifties. His hair is neatly styled, and his chin is also clean and tidy. He is also observing Xing Ze and does not dodge after making eye contact.
The man sitting on the left is the youngest, probably only thirty years old. He would look younger if he hung up the beard on his lips. He also looked at Xing Ze with interest, but his gaze did not stay for too long.
, and soon transferred to Jezebeth.
The last person was a fat man with a very strong appearance. He seemed not very interested in external affairs. He just ate his appetizers and didn't even bother to say hello.
"Sit down, guest." The elder motioned for Xing Ze to take a seat, and nodded to Jezebeth, who wisely exited the room.
Xing Ze was not polite, he pulled out the chair and sat on it generously, keeping his eyes on the fat man who was devouring the food.
"Marco, can't you stop for a moment?" the older man complained to the fat man with some annoyance.
The fat man reluctantly stopped his chopsticks, wiped his mouth stained with sauce with a napkin and said: "It's not easy to come here to have a meal, Todd. What's more, the chef himself cooks it. I don't want to do it at all."
I'm good at chatting, so just talk, and if we can't reach an agreement, I'll take action."
"Hell, you idiot, we are not here to fight." Todd sighed heavily. He looked at Xing Ze, smiled and said: "We are glad to meet you, Mr. Xing Ze, Jezebeth said
A lot about you."
In the ordinary polite words, Xing Ze thought to himself: Who knows how much they knew about him, but at least not too much, otherwise, the fat man would not have said such things.
"Forget the small talk, let's talk business." Xing Ze interrupted, "Do you want me to find Thomas?"
At this time, there was a knocking sound at the door, and Jezebeth walked in with tea. She placed a cup of strong green tea in front of Xing Ze.
"Tea from the East," she introduced, "without sugar or milk."
Xing Ze nodded at her, and Jezebes quickly walked out of the room without saying anything more. When she left, the young man who had been silent until now teased: "You are really convinced, sir. You can make Jezebe
Si personally served you tea and water. I have been coming to the association for almost eight years, and she only gave me a few smiles."
"I don't think this is a lucky thing." Xing Ze picked up the cup and blew away the tea leaves floating on it, "To be courteous for nothing is to commit adultery or to steal."
The young man just smiled coldly, as if he regarded Xing Ze's words as a kind of boast. He picked up the wine glass and took a sip and stopped talking.
Todd understood that Xing Ze's words were not only for Jezebeth, but also for them. He coughed lightly, wanting to say something that could ease the atmosphere.
"The dishes here are very good, Mr. Xing Ze, you might as well try them.
"It's a pity that I just ate it." Xing Ze shook his head, "So, Thomas, what happened to him, how much do you know?"
Seeing Xing Ze's behavior, Todd stopped being polite and replied bluntly: "There is not much information, but we sent a few people to the old house and there were no useful clues. So we can only determine that he is missing.
, but there’s something bad in that house. We know that.”
"How can you tell that there is something bad?"
"Marco, tell me."
The fat man took the glass of lemonade and took a big sip and said, "The people who were sent came back and said that they were attacked by something, but they didn't see what it was, and the camera didn't catch anything."
"Is it possible to lie?"
Xing Ze's question made the fat man frown. He raised his fat hand and waved: "No way, they are all senior members, it is impossible to lie."
Hearing this, Xing Ze had an idea. He took a sip of tea and asked: "Speaking of which, I don't even know who you are? How about we talk to each other?"
