Quick Pass: Play Cannon Fodder
Chapter 82 4.13
Xing Huan was not surprised by Paul Maguire's surprise visit.
Victor found the corpse of his old lover in the hunting ground, and then slandered Xing Huan everywhere like crazy.As stupid as Paul was, it was time to see something was wrong.
Edward was also aware of this, and he didn't leave the house because he was afraid that Paul had come to settle accounts with Xing Huan.
Afterwards, he opened the door and bowed slightly: "Good afternoon, Earl Maguire."
"Hello, Inspector Edward." Paul took off his top silk hat and bowed to Edward. "I heard that the Inspector is on vacation and has become a frequent visitor of Mr. Lemon."
The moment he returned the gift, he caught Xing Huan out of the corner of his eye, and then frowned.
"Oh, this must be Mr. Lemon. However, you look...a bit familiar." Speaking of this, Paul looked at Xing Huan with great interest.
These azure blue eyes outline a fascinating charm and tenderness, as if they have seen it somewhere?Unfortunately, Paul couldn't think of anything.
If he hadn't known Earl Maguire's character, Xing Huan would have thought he was trying to strike up a conversation--this kind of clichéd way of striking up a conversation, even a wild man would not say it.
Edward was more aware of Paul's behavior than Xing Huan, but he was still a little upset, so he reminded him: "Earl Maguire, what can you do with Mr. Lemon?"
Xing Huan leaned slightly, and said straight to the point: "Is it because of the countess?"
I saw that Paul's face sank, and then he recovered.When he thought of Victor looking for an underground lover behind his back, Paul became angry.But he didn't want to hurt innocent people, so he withdrew his anger.
Sensing Paul's uneasiness, Xing Huan turned to look at the top hat he was holding in his hand.
If the earl of the green hat didn't come to disrupt the situation, it was probably to inquire about the relationship between Victor and Allen.
After confirming this, Xing Huan gave Edward a look: "Big Tail Wolf, don't worry about me, go out and play with your tail!"
Edward understood, patted the gun bag on his waist again, and strode out of the basement.
Paul thought it was very interesting, so he said with a smile: "The inspector really lives up to his name. Edward means the guardian of happiness. It seems that he not only guards this country, but also guards Mr. Lemon."
Heh, are these two people talking so obliquely?
Xing Huan refrained from explaining the meaning of "Allen" to Paul: handsome and noble.
In fact, Paul's appearance and height are relatively outstanding, not as unsatisfactory as Victor thought.It's just that too much passion is mixed in the relationship between Victor and Alan, which makes Alan, who is already more handsome, surpass Paul, who has no interest.
Nowadays, no matter how handsome Allen is, he is completely changed in the mouth of the big lion.Paul, on the other hand, was like a lost soul cub, with a clear view of the vicissitudes in his eyes.
"The inspector is indeed a guardian of happiness." Xing Huan bowed again, and sat behind the workbench again, "To be honest, the countess was once my client, and I investigated Mr. Williams for him. Disappearance."
"Victor really came to look for you?" Paul was a little excited, and then fell into the chair behind him.
"That's right." Xing Huan nodded and said, "Please forgive me, although I can't reveal the client's secret, but he repays me with revenge. You know, I helped him find poor Mr. Williams." After all, he showed a playful smile.
The more Paul listened, the more angry he became, his hands were unconsciously twisted together.
It turned out that Victor was really looking for the squire in secret!Is that man pitiful?In Paul's view, Allen is simply a heinous sin!
After calming down, Paul said sincerely: "Mr. Lemon, it's okay for you to say. Victor didn't know that I would come to visit you today." After a pause, he continued, "Even if you don't tell me, as Victor If there are many husbands, I will also investigate this matter clearly."
Xing Huan was secretly delighted, this is what he wanted.
Victor, an ungrateful fellow who doesn't know his secret, still wants to ruin his name.Then why doesn't he stimulate Paul in front of him, and then let Paul go home and take care of his man.
So, Xing Huan pretended to be in trouble for a while, which made Paul even more curious.
"All right, for the sake of the Earl, I am willing to violate professional ethics." Xing Huan handed the contract to Paul, "As long as you sign it, I can even let you see Mr. Williams."
Paul was very surprised and just stared at Xing Huan intently.
Xing Huan raised the corner of his mouth and signaled Paul to sign with his eyes.It wasn't until Paul accidentally signed the contract that he explained his means of solving the case.
"Psychic detective?" Paul stood up abruptly, his eyebrows full of doubts.
Xing Huan nodded without disturbing Paul's thoughts.
After much hesitation, Paul finally made up his mind and said, "Okay, Mr. Lemon, please help me summon Mr. Williams!"
No matter what, he had to ask him face to face.Otherwise, he will not be able to sleep at night!
Xing Huan left the workbench and first sealed the entire room with witchcraft.Then, to Paul's astonishment, he summoned the ghost of Alan Williams.
There was a sudden gust of wind in the house, and calm was restored with the appearance of Allen.
At this time, three men stood in the silent basement.In addition to Xing Huan who was watching the show, there were two other rivals who looked at each other.
Alan was indeed a tall, handsome country gentleman.However, when he recognized Paul in front of him, he immediately showed a timid look, which immediately lowered his appearance and temperament.
Paul's face was even uglier, but he did not lose the earl's demeanor, and only said sharply: "Are you Mr. Williams?"
"My lord, forgive me!" Allen fell to his knees and climbed to Paul's feet. "I didn't mean to get close to the countess! I swear, it's true!"
Paul got rid of Allen's entanglement, and growled: "Shameless guy! Are you admitting it?" He was suddenly furious, and he was a little afraid of this undead.
"Lord Earl, don't worry, Mr. Williams can't hurt you. You must have a lot to say, but I can only give you 5 minutes." Xing Huan yawned, turned and walked to the backyard.
While he was clearing the snow for the little pumpkins, the Earl scolded Allen bloody, and kicked him a few times, saying that he would feed his rotten meat to the dogs!Alan managed to return to this world, but was severely criticized by Paul. He also remembered the scene of his death, and his heart felt like a knife...
Five minutes later, Xing Huan walked back to the house with two little pumpkins in his arms, and used witchcraft to drive away Alan's undead.
Paul finally let out a bad breath, his hands still shaking from the rage.Xing Huan handed the two small pumpkins to Paul to let him control his emotions.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Lemon." Paul looked down at the things in his arms, and suddenly felt very warm in his palms.
After being stunned for a while, he found that the temperature came from the little pumpkins, and they seemed to be alive, breathing in his arms.
"what is this?"
"Pumpkins." Xing Huan grinned, "However, these pumpkins are bred by witchcraft and are of excellent quality. The Earl does not need to pay me. You can take some pumpkins home and recommend them to people who love pumpkins." Bar."
Paul couldn't believe his ears.If he hadn't seen Alan's undead, he would have thought it was a dream.
"Mr. Lemon, are you really a descendant of a wizard?" Paul stared at Xing Huan, feeling that he looked more and more familiar.
Xing Huan bowed slightly and said, "Yes, but I just want to investigate the Jack the Ripper case with Detective Edward. Please keep it a secret for me."
Heaving a sigh of relief, Paul nodded and said, "Even the famous Scotland Yard trusts you. I can't find any excuse to betray you." After that, he glanced at Xing Huan again, and then walked out of the basement with the little pumpkin in his arms.
After sending Paul away, Edward ran back to Xing Huan and said, "Honey, did the Earl take our pumpkin?"
"Well, I gave him two." Xing Huan reached out and patted off the snowflakes on Edward's head, "Don't you like wearing hats?"
Edward chuckled and said, "I don't like it, it will hinder my work." Afterwards, he carried Xing Huan to the fireplace.
The two snuggled together, talking animatedly about Paul.Knowing that Paul was only here to inquire about the adultery between Victor and Allen, Edward was relieved.
No one can take away his little rabbit and little pumpkin...
Watching the flames in the fireplace, Xing Huan recalled Paul's strange eyes.What did Paul mean when he said he looked familiar?
Half a month later, Paul and Victor quarreled for two hours in the gorgeous hall of the Earl's Mansion.
"Victor, I'm very disappointed in you." Paul couldn't bear the sand in his eyes, "Our marriage may have come to an end, please go back to the baron's mansion."
"No, Paul! I didn't do anything wrong to you!" cried Victor. "Where did you hear that? For God's sake, you're either busy with business or believing those crazy people." Crazy words!"
Paul couldn't laugh or cry: "I'm busy with business all day long, so that's why you have an affair? Everything you have now is because of my service for the royal family!"
Victor cried even harder: "You love me so much, I don't believe you will drive me out of the Earl's Palace! I swear to God, I never betrayed you!"
Unfortunately, Victor Sapo looks exactly like Alan, which makes Paul even more disgusted.
Paul didn't say any more, and went straight back to the room.
Victor stood in the hall roaring, broke several priceless vases, and then remembered Xing Huan's sly eyes...
That damned detective must have told Paul!However, why did Paul believe what Xing Huan said?Victor couldn't figure it out—whether it was him or Paul, they just met Xing Huan once.
If Xing Huan can produce evidence that Allen has passed away, is it possible that he can also produce ironclad evidence that he and Allen had an affair?
Under Victor's nonsense, Paul temporarily let him stay in the Earl's Mansion, and told the servants not to publicize this scandal.After being thrown into the cold palace, Victor couldn't stand this kind of relationship that seemed to be in harmony with each other, and tried to trouble Xing Huan over and over again, but was stopped by the police officers mobilized by Edward.
Losing Alan's man and losing Paul's heart, Victor was miserable and unable to find Xing Huan to vent his anger.
He was crying all day long in the Earl's Mansion, but Paul didn't want to look at this bitch again.
On the contrary, Xing Huan's little pumpkin has already spread among the nobles with the hands of the Earl.
Victor found the corpse of his old lover in the hunting ground, and then slandered Xing Huan everywhere like crazy.As stupid as Paul was, it was time to see something was wrong.
Edward was also aware of this, and he didn't leave the house because he was afraid that Paul had come to settle accounts with Xing Huan.
