Pirate reincarnated into slime

Chapter 87 Holden
"I see..." Roland paused for a moment, then continued, "When I was in the hotel last night, I just saw them passing by the street. Now that I think about it carefully, that direction seems to be the direction out of the city, but listen to what you mean. , the murderer should not be them."

"No, not necessarily," Beatrice's face suddenly became serious, "Those guys can do anything, and the possibility of burning down the orphanage to vent their anger is not zero!"

"In that case, go ask," Roland suggested, "Do you know where they usually appear?"

"Well," Mei Lin nodded, "it's near the place where we met them yesterday, just ask around to find out where they are."

"Then let's go...huh?" Roland stopped suddenly in the middle of speaking.

"What's wrong?" Beatrice asked a little confused.

"Someone is here," as soon as Roland finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.

"Boom! Boom!"

"Come in," Mrs. Harriet said directly.

"Excuse me," two people walked in after the door opened.

The owner is obviously the slightly rich middle-aged man, and there is a big man in a black suit standing next to him, who should be the bodyguard.

Roland's [Crisis Avoidance] skill told him that this bodyguard is very dangerous!

Not long after I got this skill, I didn't expect it to have the effect of roughly sensing the opponent's strength. Although I still don't know how strong the opponent is, it is definitely not comparable to those people I met before.

Although the other party didn't seem to be an enemy, Roland couldn't help being cautious, because the people he saw on the island were all ordinary people, and he almost forgot that this is the world of pirates!

"Long time no see, Teacher Harriet," the middle-aged man said with a smile, "I just received the news, so I hurried over here. It's great that you are all fine."

"Thank you, Mr. Horton," Mrs. Harriet said politely. "Aren't you very busy with business? I'm really sorry that you took the time to come over."

"It's nothing, we've known each other for decades, so I should come and visit," Horton waved his hand to let Mrs. Harriet not mind, and continued, "Although I don't know who did it, but this kind of Behavior cannot be easily forgiven!"

Hearing this, Roland couldn't help but look at him twice. How did he know that it was someone else who did it instead of a fire?

But the other party and Mrs. Harriet are friends who have known each other for decades, so they shouldn't have done such a thing. Roland just regarded it as a coincidence.

And Holden continued, "It's regrettable and infuriating to actually give Andre's beloved house to ... inhumanely!"

"No..." Mrs. Harriet shook her head, "Since the children are all fine, I don't think he would mind too much, that guy is just this kind of person... The only pity is that all his belongings were burned... ..."

"Ms. Harriet..." Beatrice opened her mouth, not knowing how to comfort her.

Horton and Roland were also silent, waiting for the oppressive atmosphere to dissipate on their own.

"Sorry, I made you laugh." After a while, Mrs. Harriet recovered and smiled a little embarrassedly.

"No, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have brought him up," Holden said apologetically, "Let's talk about something else, about the murderer, do you have a clue now? The guards seem to have come, right?"

"There is a clue, but it's just a guess. We were planning to investigate it just now," Beatrice replied.

"Oh?" Holden frowned, "Who is it? Do you need my help?"

"We'll just investigate by ourselves, so we don't need to bother you," Beatrice shook her head and said with a smile.

"Don't bother, don't bother. Although I don't have much skills, I still have some contacts. Maybe I can help," Holden said with a smile.

"I really don't need it for the time being. If I encounter any difficulties later, can I trouble you?" Beatrice refused again.

"Okay," Horton stopped insisting, paused, and continued, "By the way, Mr. Harriet, I have something I want to talk to you about."

"What's the matter?" Mrs. Harriet asked with some doubts.

"The orphanage is burned down now, what are your plans for the future?" Holden looked into her eyes and said, "It will take some time to rebuild the house, and it will cost a lot of money, right?"

"..." Mrs. Harriet was silent for a long time before she opened her mouth to say, "To be honest, I don't know what to do now. Time is not a problem, but in terms of money... Although I have a little savings here, I need to save money. If we rebuild the orphanage, it will be..."

Beatrice also fell silent, not knowing what she was thinking.

The same is true for Roland, but he is thinking about whether to help. After all, if Waji is allowed to help, plus his own ability, rebuilding will not take too much time. The problem is that too many things will be exposed.

"Is that really the case?" Holden seemed to have expected it, and continued, "Why don't you listen to my personal advice?"

"What advice?"

"Actually, on the other side of Luan City, also in the forest, I have a villa there," Holden said slowly, "but because of the busy business, I rarely live there, so it is basically a villa. It’s idle, if you don’t mind, how about you move there with your children for a while?”

"This..." Mrs. Harriet was stunned.

"Of course, don't be polite to me about such innocuous things as rent. You can live there as you like until the rebuilding has a clue."

"But... But, this is too troublesome for you..." Mrs. Harriet still felt a little unbelievable. Although she had known each other for decades, it was just an acquaintance, and it didn't matter how good the relationship was. Is it too generous?
Roland didn't know that they were just acquaintances. Seeing that the other party was so generous, he had already rented out the villa, and the suspicion of him just now completely dissipated.
