Quick Pass: Play Cannon Fodder

What happened tonight was unexpected for both of them.Xing Huan admitted to Edward's identity as a wizard when Edward was most vulnerable, which made Edward at a loss.After vacillating for a moment, Edward's scale finally tilted to the right, and he thought that Xing Huan should not give up halfway.

What is this?Is the little rabbit already one of his people?

Inexplicable dissatisfaction surged into Edward's heart, and by the time he remembered that he wanted to chase Xing Huan, Xing Huan had already got into the carriage and returned to the basement on Wu Crow Street.

Heh, this bastard is playing with guns at home again.Xing Huan would never hand himself over to Edward easily.He deliberately left the apartment when Edward was not able to do so, so that Edward could doubt his life and satisfy his own taste by the way.

This time, Edward really lay down in the bathtub.He kept ups and downs in the water, reminiscing about the moment just now.Xing Huan returned triumphantly with that page of planting notes, feeling indescribably happy and satisfied.

As long as he has this page of transcripts, Xing Huan can grow a pumpkin as huge as a carriage.

He was so happy that he turned on the smart watch again, and the uncle immediately displayed the transcript he copied on the screen.

The transcript was written in wizard terms, only Xing Huan could understand it, and Edward had a hard time thinking about it.

It records the planting steps and precautions for cultivating giant pumpkins, including the selection of pumpkin seeds, suitable soil, and pest control methods.These are easy to handle, but some special potions need to be prepared, and witchcraft will definitely be used in them, which is not something ordinary people can do.

What Xing Huan is more concerned about is that in the column of precautions, his grandfather emphasized that: the planting site must be in a dark place, otherwise it will not be possible to grow giant pumpkins!

The darkness described by the grandfather does not refer to the light, but refers to the sinister environment of the human heart.

With special potions, pumpkins can even be kept out of sunlight and water.However, within a radius of five miles there must be a powerful dark energy that turns it into fertilizer for pumpkins.With the support of these dark energies, the pumpkin can continuously absorb nutrients and grow to the size of a carriage.

This is essential, is the key to success or failure.Otherwise, no matter how well the pumpkin is cultivated, it is impossible to grow such a big one.

"A dangerous environment?" Xing Huan muttered to himself, and opened the map at hand.

Currently, apart from the Whitechapel in the East End, Claflin Prison in the West End possesses powerful dark energy.

Claflin Prison houses all kinds of prisoners, almost all of whom are murderers like Jack the Ripper.These villains serve their sentences in prison day and night, accompanied by only death and an endless life, and they have accumulated powerful negative energy over time.

There is a small river outside the prison, and there is a piece of fertile land downstream of the river, which is an excellent place to grow giant pumpkins.

Xing Huan can even imagine that scene, the witched pumpkin absorbs the dark energy above the prison in the dense fog, like an orange purifier, just turning these negative energies into its own nutrients, making it thrive growing up.

Moreover, this piece of fertile land is very suitable for transformation into a manor. It was only because of its poor location, not far from the prison, that it was abandoned for a while, and no one cares about it until now.After so many years, this land is still in the hands of the royal family and belongs to private territory.

Generally speaking, manors are far away from central London, and there is no suitable planting base near Whitechapel.

But pumpkins are inseparable from dark energy, and it is impossible for Xing Huan to reclaim land in the prison. Only by taking this private land can he build his own dark farm, a private manor supported by a gang of murderers.

Right now, Xing Huan plans to run the detective agency well first.In any case, he at least knew how to grow giant pumpkins, which was considered a great harvest.

The next morning, as soon as he stepped out into the street, Isabel stopped him.

"Walter, wait for me!" Isabel waved her arms, "I heard that Inspector Edward came to trouble you again, but returned your grandfather's belongings to you? Don't rush away, go to mine Rest in the shop!"

Xing Huan had nothing special to do, so he got into the coffee shop.

In order to find out more information, Isabel treated him to a lot of snacks, sort of helping him solve his breakfast problem.He knew that Isabel had always been keen on gossip, so he continued to sell miserably, and once again distanced himself from his relationship with Jack the Ripper.

"So, even Detective Edward believes you?" Isabel laughed and poured another cup of coffee for Xing Huan, "Oh, you don't know, I bet those damned neighbors that you are definitely not Jack. Now, I earned it!"

"Congratulations, Isabel." Xing Huan pursed his lips and smiled, "As you said, I was indeed innocent, and Detective Edward returned my grandfather's things to me."

"However, the Lemon family's big manor should not be returned to you. Your grandfather is a wizard after all." Isabel shook her head, looking very regretful.

"It's okay, I understand Scotland Yard very well, and Inspector Edward also helped me." Xing Huan pretended to be generous, and his watery eyes were very cute.

After that, he chatted with the proprietress for a while, and then left the coffee shop.

During his shopping, Isabel spread his innocence to the streets and alleys, and the women who originally held Rotten Tomatoes did not attack him anymore.They did not forget Inspector Edward's warning, not to mention that Xing Huan was innocent...

To Xing Huan's surprise, these women, like Isabel, had a strong interest in him.

A down-and-out aristocratic boy, an innocent descendant of a wizard, the most elegant man in Wu Crow Street... All kinds of labels quickly covered Xing Huan's forehead, and even reached Harvey Hankins' ears.

Since reporting Xing Huan, Harvey has been waiting for a good show.However, not only did he not hear the news that Inspector Edward had arrested Xing Huan, but he also learned that Xing Huan had become the most noble, innocent and elegant man in the entire Wu Crow Street?

This is as ridiculous as Mr. Burton saying that Xing Huan is the greatest detective in the world!

"It's ridiculous!" Harvey slapped his knees, and rushed to Witch Street with his cane.

At the edge of the market, Harvey immediately noticed a group of women.These women surrounded Xing Huan, helped him choose vegetables and fruits, and taught him how to cook, looking closer than his own mother.Xing Huan kept nodding his head, pretending to be pitiful that he would lose a mother, which made these women love him even more.

"Dear child, you should eat more meat, you are still growing." One of the women stuffed the cut beef into Xing Huan's bag.

Another woman immediately laughed and said, "Grow your body? Where did you grow?" As soon as she finished speaking, the others also laughed.

Xing Huan tilted his head, pretending that he was a pure child, but it made the hearts of these women tremble.

Before that, they had always thought that Walter was Jack the Ripper, and they hated this murderer to the core.Now, they took off their tinted glasses, and Xing Huan made Walt's charming eyes shine brighter, so they looked pleasing to their eyes no matter what.

Harvey couldn't stand it anymore, and squeezed the woman away: "Excuse me! Excuse me!"

"Uncle Harvey, why are you here?" After finishing speaking, Xing Huan slightly bowed to the ladies, turned around and left the market.

Harvey followed beside him, frowning together: "I heard that Inspector Edward searched your house—if you call that a house—in short, I was very worried about you, so I came to have a look. "

Xing Huan flashed his blue eyes, and said with a light smile, "Fortunately, Detective Edward is here. He has already proved my innocence, and everyone in Wucrow Street knows about it."

How is this possible?This brat obviously used witchcraft!Edward, an old and cunning guy, has no reason to miss this point...

Harvey swallowed these doubts and planned to ask Edward in person another day.Unexpectedly, Edward was standing at the door of the basement at this time, with a look of shame turning into anger.

Harvey immediately went up to meet him, and said with a smile: "Inspector Edward, Brother Walter and I were chatting about you just now, but we didn't expect to meet you so soon!"

Xing Huan did not approach Edward, but stood aside with his hands behind his back, and said, "That's right, Uncle Harvey is very worried about me, so he came to see me."

Frowning, Edward saw Harvey in front of him.

He didn't think that Harvey came to care about Xing Huan, so he said coldly: "Mr. Hankins, I want to talk to Mr. Lemon about something. I'm really sorry. I just ask you to go first."

Harvey was slightly surprised, thinking that Edward was going to continue to settle accounts with Xing Huan, so he bowed to Edward, then turned and left.

Xing Huan glanced at Edward, but didn't ask him the reason for his lingering spirit...

Edward turned to Xing Huan and said, "Detective Lemon, I am going to give myself a vacation. During this time, I will make up for the mistakes I made to you. If you want, I will apply to Scotland Yard to let you Become a consulting detective with the Major Crimes Division."

Hearing this sentence, Harvey's reaction was faster than Xing Huan's.He ran back immediately, his face full of disbelief.

"Inspector Edward, I am the consultant detective of the Major Crime Investigation Department!"

"I know." Edward said lightly, "Besides you, Scotland Yard also has several consulting detectives. Is there any problem?"

"No..." Harvey's eyes flickered, "But, please forgive me, Mr. Lemon is not suitable for this job."

Edward heard Harvey's implication and knew that Harvey was still suspicious of Xing Huan.Xing Huan did know witchcraft, and Harvey guessed right.Adorable Edward just thinks... this old guy's face is too ugly, he seems to be trying to help Scotland Yard, but he is actually targeting Xing Huan.

This behavior of using Scotland Yard as a gun is really disgusting.

Thinking of this, the corner of Edward's mouth raised a dangerous arc: "Please forgive me, the decisions I make are always difficult to change."

Harvey shook his throat, and his face suddenly turned ashen.You know, it took him ten years to become a consulting detective at Scotland Yard.Only a few days later, Xing Huan not only made Edward change his mind, but also made Edward offer an olive branch.

At this moment, Xing Huan shrugged his shoulders and said, "It is possible. But what case do you want me to investigate?"

Edward bypassed Harvey, walked up to Xing Huan, and said, "Of course it's the case of Jack the Ripper." Then, he whispered, "You shouldn't have done that to me last night...you know witchcraft, I can arrest you anytime!"

Xing Huan scratched his ears, and said nonchalantly, "I'll give you my hand, and I'll arrest you."

Edward was startled at first, then turned his head and glanced at Harvey.Then, he grabbed Xing Huan's wrist and dragged him into the basement.
