Tianjin people will never lose SAN

Chapter 243: Knowing People Through Riddles
"Gentlemen, of course you can. When something like this happens, we should get to the bottom of everything. It's best for everyone to gather in the hotel and not come out again.

It’s just that… leaving these two bodies here is not a big deal, and you might be able to find some clues from them.”

The boss looked as if he was terribly frightened. He stood tall and strong, but his hands were still shaking.

"Then drag it in."

What the boss said made some sense, and Jacob did not object. However, the respected judge was naturally not interested in doing this kind of work for servants himself.

The boss was hesitant. He leaned sideways, turned his head, grabbed the legs of the corpse, and dragged them into a nearby room. Then he moved the torso and head of the corpse that were left outside.

In the darkness, he blocked the sight of Liu Yonglu and Jacob with his back, while his hands were groping on the corpse. It was strange that the pendant on the thin man was gone. It turned out that this was his purpose in performing this drama, he was eager to recover an extremely important ancient relic.

He stood up after touching it only twice. If he took too long, it would arouse the suspicion of the two men. The boss grabbed his collar, covered his mouth and nose, and retreated from the dark room.

Jacob led the way in front, and Liu Yonglu was at the back, watching the boss and preventing him from escaping.

The firewood in the fireplace in the living room had been mostly burnt, with a few weak flames flickering weakly on the black-gray residue. Jacob picked up a few thicker pieces of firewood and threw them in.

"Boss, you must know that those who confess will be treated leniently while those who resist will be treated severely. Go ahead and tell me more."

Liu Yonglu sat near the fireplace, opened the lid of the pot and stirred the thick soup for his midnight snack. At this moment, he missed Lin Touer very much who was still recuperating on the third floor of the Investigation Department.

With Lintou's ten cruel tortures, even a brave man of iron can be squeezed to exude water. Once the merciless stick of water and fire is used, what truth can't be squeezed out?
But now that Lin Tou'er is not here, I can only play with my brain with these people.

"No hurry, Mr. Bean, give the boss some time so that he can come up with a reasonable explanation."

Jacob waved his right hand and pointed at Liu Yonglu:
"However, I am more curious about your identity now. Ordinary noble butlers do not carry ancient relics with them."

He squinted his eyes and looked at the boss sitting on the single sofa with an expression of a cat catching a mouse. It was true that the boss had problems, but at this moment, the people living on the second floor of the hotel were the Archons of the Holy See, a total of six of them, so there was no need to worry that he would not tell the truth.

But Dou.Niwal made him concerned. This man had connections with the Holy Maiden Sect before, and now he appeared here inexplicably. He couldn't guess the cause and effect for a while.

Jacob's words made his identity clear. I know you can manipulate the dream world, and you should be able to guess who I am. Let's talk it out face to face. If we are friends, we can sit down and chat. If we have disagreements... then we may have to fight tonight.

A few dry hardwoods burned happily in the fireplace, the fire was burning brightly again, and the tomato soup in the crucible began to boil.

Liu Yonglu slowly scooped up a spoonful for himself to taste, smacked his lips, nodded, thought for a while, and then took a can of seasoning and tapped it into the soup a few times.

It was a bit unexpected that Jacob suddenly attacked him. Liu Yonglu's mind was also working frantically. He couldn't come up with such a vicious trick on the spur of the moment. It took time to prepare.

Jacob was also patient. He just watched Liu Yonglu make the soup. He raised his nose and sniffed. It was very fragrant. He handed the wooden bowl in front of him to him.

This is Jacob's confidence and arrogance. No matter if you are Dou Niwar or an impostor black shop owner, you can't do anything in front of me, Jacob.

"You already know my last name and given name, but as for my identity... well, it's too early for you to know now."

After Liu Yonglu changed his disguise, his appearance was already older, and his words sounded even more mature. Before Jacob could continue to ask, he opened his mouth again:

"But I can tell you the purpose of coming to Calder County this time. We are all brothers who make a living on the road. I will tell you after I have said it, and you can be open and honest. Maybe you can take care of me in the future."

Liu Yonglu first held Jacob down, and waited until he had finished talking to Hu Qin before he could ask others.

"We came here this time just to kill one person!"

Hey, after saying this, the boss and Jacob's eyes lit up, and then they frowned and kept silent.

Why did Liu Yonglu lie like this? There is a lot of knowledge involved. First of all, the most crucial point is that he has never seen the boss and Jacob in front of him. He has no impression of their names, heights and physical characteristics. This shows a problem. No matter where these two people are from, they are definitely not on the same page with him.

You should know that the intelligence Liu Yonglu used to carry out this mission came from the old minister Sisram, which was considered the highest-level intelligence in the entire Moses Sad, and was directly compiled and provided by the royal family.

Who is the head of the police department who is protecting Nicholas? If a major accident occurs, who will be the person in charge of the Royal Navy to provide support? It's all written in the files, which means that except for these people, everyone else is a bastard who has not held back his fart.

It seems that the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light, but if I use my brain and play some tricks with this bunch of old BKs, the situation will immediately reverse, and Liu Yonglu will go from the light to the dark!
"This soup tastes good. Mr. Dou is a great cook."

"Indeed, even though I run a small inn, none of the cooks back there can make such a good soup."

Jacob and the boss also praised both the soup and the people.

"Anyway, we've made a big pot of it. Since everyone likes to drink it, let's each have some. No one should fight over it."

Liu Yonglu gave them another bowl of soup, which contained both soup and food.

"But Mr. Bean, whether the soup tastes good or not is all in the cauldron, and whether the killing of the person was right or wrong, we must make it clear."

After drinking a big bowl of hot soup, Jacob's nose was sweating. He hurried to make everything clear. He was lucky today and might be able to figure out two important things at once.

Is Dou Nivar a friend or an enemy, and the plan to hunt down Nikola.

"How about... I say one, two, three... let's say it all together?"

"No, no, no, I don't know anything about murder. I just run an inn."

The boss declined quickly. He was getting himself into trouble. He hadn't even had the chance to tell the lie he had just made up. If he jumped out now to express his feelings with these two, what if he said the wrong thing?

The corners of their mouths twisted, and they both thought that they were jumping into a fire pit.

"Boss, if you don't like the soup, don't force it. Go back to sleep."

Jacob raised his chin towards the boss's back, in the direction of the room where the boss had just stored the body. Jacob's meaning was very clear: if you don't want to confess, you don't have to. I will send you to see those two.

"Since the two noble lords have given me this honor, I will also... participate."

"Okay, then I'll say one, two, three, and we'll talk together..."

Liu Yonglu put his hands on his knees, pouted and started to recite:
"one."

"two."

"three."

"Nicholas Somilian."

They spoke in unison, and under the firelight, the three of them couldn't help but smile at each other.
