The Antigonus family notebook is in the room opposite the kidnapper!
Although this is a coincidence, Klein believes that he feels right.
He immediately turned away from the bed and took off the old clothes he wore while sleeping two or three times.
He took the white shirt next to him, put it on his body, and fastened the buttons from top to bottom.
One, two, three ... He suddenly noticed that there were "less" buttons, and the left and right sides did not seem to be very symmetrical.
Look closely, Klein found that he had the wrong button from the beginning, which made the shirt twisted.
He shook his head helplessly, took a deep breath, and slowly spit it out, using a little meditation technique to restore himself to a certain calmness.
Wearing a white shirt and black trousers, he barely fits under the shoulder straps, and takes out the revolver hidden under the soft pillow and places it inside.
Do n’t look at the bow tie, he put on his formal attire and walked to the door with a hat and a cane in one hand.
Wearing half-height silk top hat, Klein action, gently twist the handle, open the door, and enter the corridor.
Carefully closing the bedroom wooden door, he went down the stairs almost silently like a thief, leaving two lines of words with a pen and paper in the living room, indicating that he had forgotten to say that the company had something to do last night.
Out of the door, Klein felt a refreshing breeze, and the whole person was quiet.
The street in front of him was dim and silent, there were no pedestrians, only the light of the gas street lamp shone quietly.
Klein took out the pocket watch from the inside pocket and snapped it open, and found that at six o'clock, the crimson moonlight had not completely faded, but there was a touch of translucency in the horizon.
He was planning to find expensive rented carriage employment, and suddenly saw a double-horse four-wheel trackless public carriage approaching.
"Is there public carriage so early?" Klein was slightly surprised, and greeted him, beckoning to stop.
"Good morning, sir." The coachman skillfully stopped the horse.
The staff member in charge next to him covered his mouth with his hands and yawned.
"Go to Zoutlan Street." Klein said while pulling out two 1p and four half-penny from his trouser pocket.
"4p." The staff member responsible for charging answered without hesitation.
After paying the fare, Klein got on the carriage and saw that it was empty, there were no other guests, and there was obvious desertion in the dark.
"You are the first." The driver said with a smile.
Two brown horses took a step forward and walked forward relatively briskly.
"honestly speaking, I didn't expect to have public carriage so early." Klein sat close to the driver and replied casually, distracting attention and easing inner tension.
The driver laughed at himself:
"Every day from six to nine in the evening, but my weekly salary is only 1 pound."
"Is there no time for rest?" Klein asked in surprise.
"rest rotates one day a week." The coachman's tone became heavy.
The toll collector next to him added:
"We are responsible for 6 am to 11 noon, then go to lunch, go to Quinn at noon, wait until 6 pm after dinner, and then replace colleagues ... Even if we do n’t use rest, two horses are needed."
"It wasn't like this before. Since some coachmen were too tired, they made mistakes that shouldn't have caused them, the horses were out of control, and the carriages were overturned. Only after this kind of rotation ... How could the group of Vampire suddenly become kind!" The driver snorted.
In the morning light, the public carriage headed for Zoutlan Street, and only 7-8 passengers were on the way.
After Klein eased the tension a little, he stopped talking, closed his eyes, and flashed back yesterday's experience frame by frame to see if there were any other omissions.
When the blazing sun rises completely and the sky is really bright, public carriage reaches Zoutlan Street.
Klein pressed the hat with his left hand and jumped off the carriage with a jump.
He walked quickly into Zoutlan Street36 and reached the outside of Black Thorns Security Company along the stairs.
At this time, the gate is closed and not yet open.
Klein removes the keychain from the waist, finds the brass-colored counterpart, inserts it into the hole, and "crack" twists.
He pushed forward so that the door opened slowly, and saw the black-haired and green-eyed Leonard Mitchell sniffing the recently popular cigarette.
"In fact, I prefer cigars ... you look eager?" the poet-like Night Watcher asked relaxedly.
"What about captain?" Klein did not answer the question.
Leonard pointed to the partition:
"In his office. As an extraordinary promotion for Sleepless, he only needs two hours of rest during the day. I think those factory owners and bankers must like this magical medicine most."
Klein nodded and walked quickly through the partition, and saw that Dunn Smith had opened the office door and stood at the entrance.
"What's the matter?" He wore a black trench coat and carried a gold-studded cane, his expression calm and serious.
"I feel like I've seen" where I have seen it. "It should be the notebook of notebook, Antigonus family." Klein tried his best to control himself and make the answer clear and organized.
"Where?" Dunn Smith's face did not change significantly.
But Klein's spiritual sense tells him that the other party seems to have an obvious, invisible wave, which may be a spiritual sparkle or a change in mood.
"Just where I and the Leonard rescued the hostages yesterday, opposite the kidnapper's room, I didn't notice it until I had a dream and got revelation." Klein did not hide anything.
"It seems that I missed a very big credit yesterday." Leonard who came to the partition position sometime chuckled.
Dunn slightly nodded, and solemnly commanded:
"Let Kenry replace Old Neil guard weapons storehouse, and let Old Neil, Frye go with us."
Leonard no longer behaves frivolously, immediately notified Kenry and Frye in Night Watcher recreation room, one of them is 《Sleepless》 and the other is Corpse Collector.
Five minutes later, the two-wheeled carriage belonging to the Night Watcher squad quickly drove up, in the early morning when there were not many pedestrians.
Leonard wears a felt hat, shirt and waistcoat, and temporarily acts as a coachman, swinging the whip out of thin air from time to time to make it make a crisp sound.
In the compartment, Klein and Old Neil are sitting on the same side, opposite is Dunn Smith and Frye.
This Corpse Collector's skin is so pale that he hasn't been exposed to the sun for a long time, or he is severely ischemic. He's about thirty years old, with black hair and blue eyes, high nose bridge, thin lips, cold and dark temperament Some of the faint smell left by touching the body for many years.
"You will talk about the matter in detail again." Dunn adjusted the collar of his black trench coat.
Klein rubbed the citrine pendant covered by the sleeves. From accepting the commission, I talked about the dream. The next Old Neil laughed and said:
"You and that Antigonus family's notebook seem to have some kind of fateful bondage, so you can also meet."
Yeah, this is a coincidence too! If it was n’t mentioned by Leonard, the preliminary trial results of the Elliot kidnapping case showed that there was no hidden power or mysterious power manipulation, but a case that simply took the risk of money and money. I doubt who was deliberately arranged ... Klein is also quite concerned about this Strange.
It's a coincidence!
Dunn did not express an opinion, as if pondering something, "Corpse Collector" Frye, who also wore a black trench coat, maintained the same silence.
Until the carriage stopped, the building mentioned by Klein appeared outside the window, and this kind of condensation was broken.
"Let's go up, Klein, you and Old Neil are at the end, be careful, you have to be careful." Dunn got out of the carriage, took out a strange revolver with a long and thick barrel from his arms, and plug it In the right hand pocket.
"Okay." How dare Klein be at the forefront.
When Leonard found someone to guard the carriage, a group of five Extraordinarys entered the staircase orderly before and after and came to third floor very lightly.
"Is this right?" Leonard pointed to the room opposite the kidnapper.
Klein tapped on his eyebrows twice and opened spirit vision.
In this state, his spiritual sense has improved again, only to feel that door seems to have known each other, and he seems to have entered it.
"Yes." He must nodded.
Old Neil also opened its own spirit vision, carefully observe the back path:
"spiritual light with no people or magic in it."
"Corpse Collector" Frye added hoarsely:
"No evil spirits."
He can see many spiritual body without turning on spirit vision, including evil spirits and Resentful Soul.
Leonard took a step forward, just like yesterday, punched in the door lock.
This time, not only the surrounding wood chipped, but also the door lock popped and kuāng dāng landed.
Klein only felt that an invisible seal disappeared instantly, and immediately followed, he smelled a strong stench.
"The body, the rotting body." "Corpse Collector" Frye stated coldly.
He has no nausea.
Dunn stretched out his right hand wearing black gloves and slowly pushed open the door. At first sight was a fireplace. In the weather in early July, there was an abnormally sultry heat.
In front of the fireplace, there was a rocking chair, and an old woman in a black and white dress sat head down.
She has grown abnormally a lot, her skin is black and green, and it swells up to shine. It seems that as long as you poke it casually, it will burst and spew out rotten odor. living creature Between flesh and rot, in clothing and folds, crawl in and out— spirit vision Among them, they are like light spots, surrounded by a group of extinct "dullness".
Crack, crack.
The old woman ’s two eyes fell off and fell to the ground, rolling a few times, leaving a few traces of tan.
Klein nausea for a while, can no longer restrain the effects of stench, bowed and vomited.
