The Whispering Verses Chapter 1670: Investigation on a rainy day


Although Shade was unclear about the actions of the local church, he remembered that he had other investigation progress:

"The investigation on the tomb robbers is basically over. Specifically, only two of the tomb robbers who left the island are still alive. One is an ordinary person and will probably not live until the end of this month, and the other is Ring Warlock, I only know the name at the moment, and I’m still investigating other situations.”

The witch frowned slightly;

"Are the lost burial objects of Rusty Edwards, the eldest daughter of the second generation who died young, still in their hands?"

"I asked, and most of them were sold by them. A small number of them were sent back to the island in order to lift the curse, and were buried in the woods leading from the dock to Green Lake Town. Yes, thieves Taking away the property gave them a curse, but I'm not sure what it was."

He explained in detail the whole process of his search for the tomb robber. The witch listened carefully, and when Shade finished speaking, she said regretfully:

"So, I want revenge, but I can't find anyone?"

"That guy who is about to die, you really have no way to retaliate except letting him die two days in advance. But that low-level warlock may still be alive. A curse that ordinary people can't resist, even if the low-level warlock can't lift it , and it is unlikely that there is no way to alleviate it.”

"Well, I'll leave this matter to you to help investigate. As for today, are you interested in taking a trip with me?"

The beautiful lady asked Xiang Shade.

"It's raining outside, where are we going?"

"Deal with the matter of Bad-Eye Barry. Since this man is a cultist, no matter what he does locally, we cannot keep him."

The witch said, Shade felt the temperature in his chest weakening, which meant that the soul that dominated the body opposite had changed again. Therefore, although the "injury" is recovering, the witch seems unable to maintain the soul dominating the body:

"He has many strongholds in the local area, but he has been at the Ivy Club all day today, meeting with some Kasenlik businessmen to discuss business. We can take the opportunity to visit his lair, maybe we can An unexpected discovery. If you didn't show up today, I would have left these things to my followers, but since you are here, I think you should also want to see him with your own eyes. What are you doing?"

Shad nodded. He had no objection to this arrangement, but he was just worried that it would waste the witch's time. But Miss Megan Edwards is very willing to go for a walk with Shad:

"It's nothing, anyway. Besides, you've helped me so much, and I..."

She did not continue, so Shade took his dice and stood up to leave:

"What kind of business do those Carsonrick merchants want to discuss with Bad-Eye Barry? Smuggling?"

Meghan smiled:

"Yes, drug smuggling. Specifically, those Kasonlik businessmen were hired by Paradise Island Pharmaceuticals and were specifically responsible for holding him back today. So, we have plenty of time to investigate. This is just a small matter, and it can be passed through Paradise The problem that Island Pharmaceutical solves is not a problem.”

The hotel waiter held an umbrella for the two of them and sent them to the carriage parked at the door. The carriage drove into the rain, which would probably last for a long time.

The whole city became wet in the rain. After the ancient streets were wetted by the rain, it seemed more than ever that they had entered an ancient time in the past.

Speaking of which, the scenery of Green Lake City when it rains is better than the normal foggy appearance. If you want to develop tourism here, it would be good to use the "ancient lakeside city" as a selling point.

During Megan's preliminary investigation, five locations worth investigating were selected for today. It does not include the casino that Shade once visited, but it does include "Bad Eye Barry's" other properties in the city.

On the carriage, Megan handed the investigated documents to Shade. Shade glanced at it briefly and was surprised that the other party was so rich: "Including fixed assets, he also has a fortune of at least 200,000 pounds. Right? Isn’t Green Lake City very poor?”

"The poverty of Green Lake City is not necessarily related to whether the gangsters are poor."

Megan said, and then reminded Shade to read the following pages:

"Our schedule today is very tight, and we may not be able to visit all places. There are three locations in the city of Green Lake, one in Mikaela Blast Furnace City on the south side of the lake shore, and one in the lake. I It is recommended to start in this city, then go to the City of Glass, and finally go to the lake. If you don’t have enough time, you can choose one of the two places to go to, and then deal with the cultist directly after the investigation ends tonight.”

"Of course...casinos, brothels, black boxing, smuggling...If he is not a ring warlock, he doesn't need to be involved in the ring warlock's thoughts, maybe he can unify the entire Green Lake area. Where is the underworld?"

Although ring warlocks have more strength than ordinary people, running these illegal industries relies on more than just strength.

"Maybe he was shot in the dark and died in an unknown alley."

Amidst the sound of rain, the two got off the car at the intersection of Roget Street near the Duin River in the west of Green Lake City. The carriage stopped at the side of the "Green Lake City Bank". This kind of regional bank has a shabby storefront, but it is the newest building on the street.

Roget Street is the location where bulk commodities are traded in the city. Because it is close to the river and is convenient for transportation, Bad-Eye Barry runs a warehouse here, which is also a relatively formal type of business for him.

The reason Megan thinks this is suspicious is because inexplicable goods similar to "pig feed" often appear on the warehouse's shipping list that she obtained through special channels. In addition, Barry was very interested in this warehouse, which did not make much money and rarely handed over contraband, so Megan chose this place.

"Don't be in a hurry to get out of the car. Although I brought you here, there is no need for us to do it ourselves."

The lady with short brown shawl hair said, looking at the man sitting opposite in the sound of rain, and raised her eyebrows slightly:

"Are you short of money? You have been paying attention to Barry's income just now."

"I can't say I'm short of money. I have very little expenses, but my cat eats a lot. And for daily expenses... most of the daily expenses are paid by the girls."

When he said it, he wanted to sigh. He could pay for small expenses such as meals and gas bills, but for clothing and various household items, Carina and Lesia always went to St. Mary's without his permission. Block 6, Derain Square. He didn't even remember how many clothes he had bought with his own money since he came to this world.

Megan asked pretending not to care:

"You are enjoying this feeling, being popular and having people pay the bills."

"Enjoy?"

Xia De shook his head:

"Of course I don't enjoy it. It makes me feel like I owe others. I prefer to make my own money and spend it myself. Moreover, spending women's money makes me feel that my self-esteem is damaged."

He looked at the rain outside the car window:

"I remember every time they were nice to me, and I always felt that I owed them. So, even if they sometimes do wrong things impulsively, I will forgive them..."

Megan breathed a sigh of relief:

"If you have time, you can introduce me to your friends. I think they should also be some interesting people."

She doesn't care about the girls around Shade because she obviously thinks no one is as good as her.

"There will be a chance."

If Miss Carina sets out this week, she will definitely be able to go to Green Lake City next week.

While they were talking, three running carriages hurried past their carriage in the rain. Meghan signaled Shade to be silent, and then asked the coachman to turn the carriage around so that they could see the door of the warehouse from the window.

The three running carriages stopped next to the warehouse, and then five or six men in black got out of each carriage. Including the driver, a team of nearly twenty people rushed into the warehouse.

The sound of rain suppressed the sound of gunfire under the silencer, and at the same time did not let the smell of blood spread. From the small window of the carriage, one could not clearly see what was going on in the warehouse, but Shade could imagine it.

This is different from the investigation that Shade thought. He looked at Megan in surprise, and the latter explained:

"I will not kill people casually. Bad-eyed Barry attaches great importance to this place. These are his confidants, and they belong to people who would waste bullets if they were killed by bullets. As for those rude men in black, they are not my people." Barry came to the local area from Coldwater Port more than 20 years ago and has occupied so much territory among the local gangs. There are many people who want his life. I just need to spread the word."

The group of men in black who rushed into the warehouse were very efficient, and they all came out in less than ten minutes. They got back into the carriage, and then the racing carriage left again. The rain washed away the ground, leaving no trace.

But Megan still didn't let Shade get off the car. After waiting for a while, another carriage stopped in front of the warehouse. The witch's followers, the two girls from the sixth ring, walked in. After they gave the signal, the carriage in which Shade and Megan were riding finally stopped at the door of the warehouse in the rain. The girls from the sixth ring held umbrellas and stood in front of the warehouse. Waiting in the rain for the two people in the carriage to get off.

“Look, we don’t have to do everything ourselves, we just have to show up when the time is right.”

Megan said.

Xia De got out of the carriage first, but he only took the umbrella and did not let anyone else hold it for him. Turning around, the lady with brown shawl hair was looking at him at the door of the carriage, so she stretched out her hand. Only then did Megan show a satisfied expression and took his hand to get out of the carriage. The girls on the side were all expressionless, obviously they already knew something before setting off.

It was a humid rainy day outside, and the smell of damp earth in the air was enough to cover up the smell of the blood of the three people who had fallen in the yard. But after entering the warehouse building, because there are no windows for ventilation, the smell of blood cannot be concealed in the humid and hot environment.
