Personality V: I will save everything
Chapter 162 Covering up
"Okay... in short... it's very dangerous here, you should leave immediately." He quickly took Frederick's arm, seemingly wanting to take them to the police station.
"But...brother Ganji..." Frederick wanted to explain, but couldn't form a sentence or two.
"No but." Ganji's attitude was very firm and he must take them to the police station.
Although the damn murderer ran away just now, who knows whether he will continue to target this little girl and commit murder against her... It would be safer to take them to the police station to apply for police protection.
"..." Frederick kept being dragged forward by Ganji. He opened his mouth and wanted to explain, but he couldn't explain the current situation in one sentence or two...⊙﹏⊙
At this time, Luchino, who had been squatting there in a daze, finally reacted and stepped forward to explain the current situation to the man named Ganji.
But before Luchino could open his mouth, he saw policemen running towards him in the distance.
But think about it... There was such a big movement just now, and there were so many people checking the situation outside from the windows. Many people must have called the police. It is estimated that the phone number of the police station was about to be overwhelmed.
...............
"It's great that you and your daughter are okay." The police officers who rushed over breathed a heavy sigh of relief after checking that both Luchino and Frederick were okay.
They had just received a call, saying that the murderous ghost "Jack the Ripper" had actually appeared during the day, and this time the target was a little girl.
They made a decisive decision and immediately prepared to dispatch the police, because the news of Jack the Ripper's resurrection not only caused panic to the citizens, but also demonstrated the incompetence of their police in disguise. After all, hundreds of years ago, their police predecessors They failed to catch this damn murderer and made him escape unscathed and disappear.
The government has been putting a lot of pressure on them. If they can't successfully catch this damn murderer, then all of them will be ready to pack up and leave.
Therefore, the speed with which they dispatched the police this time was unprecedented. Especially when they arrived at the scene and saw the clothes of Luchino and Frederick, and judged that the two of them were either rich or nobles, they were even more sure. Their decision to call the police immediately was the right one.
Although the gentleman in front of me is wearing a huge black hat and a brown windbreaker, which looks really strange, after all, it is just early spring, and there is still a slight chill in the air, so it is understandable that this gentleman is wearing this. .
The little girl who was almost killed was very cute, but I don’t know if it was because the incident just scared her, so she has been hiding behind her father now, only daring to show her head and look at the police quietly. .
"...So are you sure that this is what happened?" A policeman who seemed to be taking notes confirmed to Luchino again.
"Yes." Luchino looked down the whole time, looking worried.
In the eyes of the police, he looked like he hadn't recovered from the shock just now.
"Are you sure? Sir, please think about it carefully, even if you only know the color of his hair or any more distinctive appearance." The English police officers said with some unwillingness to give up.
"I'm sorry...it was so sudden...I really don't remember."
The police officers who heard Luchino's answer were very disappointed, because this time a survivor finally appeared, and they thought they could witness the appearance of the murderer.
But I didn’t expect that the little girl was too scared and said that she didn’t remember the appearance of the murderer at all. The little girl’s father was knocked down because he wanted to prevent “Jack the Ripper” from escaping, and he didn’t see clearly what he looked like. What.
As for this foreigner who had kept his head down from the beginning, the English police had never thought that he might provide any valuable clues.
Huh, these foreigners are all the same, especially a dark-skinned guy like him. It's as if he has no brain. It's simply unreasonable to expect any clues from him.
"What about you?" The English police still had the last trace of fantasy. Although they never believed in the brains of these foreigners, what if he happened to see the appearance of "Jack the Ripper".
"...I'm sorry gentlemen, I didn't notice. I had been protecting this little girl at that time." What Ganji said was true. In fact, he was almost scared to death at the time. He was always careful about the "opening" "Hand Jack" doesn't pounce on him suddenly, and he doesn't even notice what he looks like.
"Tch!" The English policemen clicked their tongues with great dissatisfaction, but that was all. Normally, they would even use this foreigner as a tool to vent their dissatisfaction.
But this guy just saved the little girl, so now in front of the little girl and her father, they will be more restrained, at least not so violent.
"That's it for now, sir, take your daughter home quickly...remember to be careful." Since there were no useful clues, the police were ready to pack up and return home, but when they said the last words, they Glancing Ganji up and down, it was obvious that they despised the foreigner.
Ganji was not there, or perhaps he had already gotten used to it. The reason why he rushed up just now was simply because of the remaining kindness in his heart.
After seeing that the police had left, Frederic and Luchino breathed a sigh of relief.
They thought they were really going to sit inside the police station.
It's not that they were afraid that if the police just continued like this, the situation would be very troublesome. After all, they couldn't really tell the police that Frederick was actually a boy who dressed up as a girl just to attract that " "Jack the Ripper", it would be strange if the police didn't treat them as crazy.
After all, the reputation of "Jack the Ripper" is very prominent in this land of England. In the eyes of the police, the behavior of Luchino and Frederic can no longer be described as not being afraid of death. They are simply spiritual. question.
"...Hurry up and go home." Ganji, who had been nearby and had no sense of presence, once again suggested Luchino and Frederic to go home quickly.
Speaking of which, Ganji really envied them. They seemed to be a very happy father and daughter. Ganji told them to go home quickly, but he had no way to go home.
"..." Luchino didn't answer him. He just looked at the sky. It was already getting late. Counting the time they spent wandering on the street and the time they were forced to stay by the police to take notes, the sun was shining brightly. It's almost time to go down the mountain.
"Here you go." Frederick handed Ganji something.
This was what Frederick just picked up from the ground. It was the object that Gangji hit on the back of the murderer's head. It was a ball, but maybe it was because Ganji hit it too hard. The ball has been broken.
Seeing this broken ball, Ganji felt a little pity. This was his only ball that was still intact.
"It's almost time." Luchino, who noticed that it was getting late, checked the pocket watch he was wearing and decided that it would be enough for today.
They had originally bought a house in the town as a temporary residence. After all, they did not dare to guarantee that they could attract the fake "Jack the Ripper" in just one day.
This is a "protracted war", so the "stronghold" must be prepared first.
"It's getting late, Mr. Ganji Gupta... um... by the way, as a thank you for what happened just now, are you willing to work here?" Luchino could tell from Ganji's dress. It was obvious that he was very short of money.
As a thank you for what happened just now, Lukino is willing to provide the class with a job. Of course, if he is not willing, Lukino will also give him a sum of money as a reward for protecting Frederick just now.
Luchino asked Ganji if he was willing to work for him, but he actually had other purposes.
First of all, as a resident here, Ganji must know this city better than them.
Secondly, and most importantly... Luchino can be regarded as having a little selfishness of his own. He can feel that he and Ganji are the same kind, equally talented, and equally not accepted by the world, so maybe he is Luchino, who is experienced, may want to help him.
If Ganji agrees to the job, Luchino will find a way to introduce him to other people in the manor and let him live in the manor.
If Ganji doesn't accept the job, Luchino will also give him a sum of money to improve his current life.
So...it depends on Ganji's answer.
"...I can't do anything." Ganji was silent for a long time and finally gave this answer.
Ganji didn't know many English words and could barely communicate. However, he knew nothing about the knowledge in books, so he couldn't tutor the children, so he could only work as a servant. Apart from playing football, he believed that he would definitely not be able to do a good job in cleaning.
In order to prevent him from failing to do anything well after taking this job and being scolded by the people in front of him, he thought it would be better to make things clear first.
"What do you mean? Did you agree?" Luchino raised his eyebrows.
"...Yes, but I..." Ganji felt that he might not be good at cleaning, so he might...can only be the lowest-level servant who does heavy work, but even so, at least this way , he can start saving money.
Ganji has had enough of that kind of life. He knows why those damn powerful people don't let him do anything except playing cricket, just to prevent him from escaping. It's because he doesn't want to do anything except playing cricket. He doesn't know how to do it, so even after he escapes, he can only go back in the end.
But Ganji has had enough. He would rather go to the house of the man in front of him named Luchino to do the dirtiest and most tiring work. He will never go back again.
"Then let's go." Luchino was very happy that he agreed.
"..." Frederick, who had been witnessing the whole process, blinked his eyes and finally chose not to say anything. ⊙w⊙
But Frederick understood one thing, that was he was going to have a brother again?
...............
After Ganji confirmed that he had got a job, he lowered his head the whole time and followed Luchino and Frederic at a certain distance.
Ganji now just wants to avoid making mistakes as much as possible.
The job that Mr. Luchino offered him was really his last straw, and he couldn't lose it under any circumstances.
But Frederic, who had been held in Luchino's arms from the beginning, didn't think much of it. ⊙w⊙
Because he was held in Luchino's arms, Frederick could see what Ganji was doing the whole time.
In fact, judging from what just happened, Ganji was really powerful, because he hit the ball impartially on the back of the head of the murderer who wanted to hurt Frederick from a long distance.
But this seems very unreasonable, because if Ganji is really good at playing cricket, then he shouldn't live alone in such a shabby hut.
Then there is only one possibility. Ganji also became a plaything of those nobles because of his super talent, so he could only escape from there.
Frederick thought of his former self, who was also a toy in the aristocratic circle, so... Frederick could quite understand Ganji's current mood, just like when he first arrived at the manor.
But at least Frederick felt that he was happy now, at least there wouldn't be someone yelling in his ears every moment to go practice piano quickly.
After thinking about it, Frederick actually fell asleep in Luchino's arms, but this was normal, after all, he had been walking outside all day.
Frederick: (.-w-)zzz
........................
When Luchino carried Frederick back to their temporary base, he opened the door and found that everyone except the two of them had already returned.
"How's it going?" Qiu Ke asked after having gained nothing at the end of the day.
"Don't mention it..." Luchino described what happened today to everyone while placing Frederick on the sofa and covering him with a blanket.
…………ten minutes later…………
"So you let him run away?...This is not like you." Jack commented on what happened to Luchino today.
"What do you want to say?" Luchino was obviously a little angry at Jack's suspicious tone.
Jack stretched out his hand to hold Luchino's shoulder, then put his face next to his ear and said, "You know I know...you did it on purpose, right?"
Sure enough, after realizing that he had heard him say these words, Lukino's expression changed significantly, and Jack knew that he had guessed correctly.
With Luchino's skills, he would definitely not let the real murderer escape, but Luchino let him escape. Why? The only possibility is that Luchino knows him, and not only knows him, but their relationship is even so good that Luchino will come out to protect him.
"..." Luchino didn't want to explain too much about this.
Of course, Jack didn't make things difficult for him. Just like what Jack just said, only Luchino and Jack knew about this matter, and neither of them would let the third person know.
"Okay, Luchino, why did you bring someone back? Why don't you introduce him?" Jack said as if he wanted to change the subject.
"I...my name is Ganji Gupta..." Ganji didn't react when he was named.
To be honest, Ganji has been in a state of fugue ever since the door of this house opened just now, because the scene in front of him was beyond his expectation.
Ganji is completely confused now, what is going on? !
"Don't be nervous, let me introduce you." Joseph stepped forward and wanted to have a good chat with Ganji alone. After all, he was used to doing this kind of thing.
………………
When the people at the door gradually dispersed, Jack just took a deep look at Luchino and then left.
Jack just named Ganji deliberately in front of everyone. The reason is very simple, because he believes that Luchino can't bring someone back for no reason. Luchino never does anything unnecessary, and he never does anything unnecessary. Not an emotional person. So if he brings this person back, he must have his own purpose.
Although Jack felt very sorry for saying this to his family, but combined with the fact that Luchino would cover the murderer just now, and the fact that Luchino brought back an unknown person in this extraordinary period... Jack had Reasons to suspect that Luchino brought Ganji here just to create a helper.
That's why he deliberately called Ganji's name just now to expose him to everyone's view and let him familiarize himself with the environment of the manor and know what kind of place it is. In this way, Luchino wants Ganji to help him again It is very difficult to do anything.
"I'm sorry, Luchino, but I have to protect the safety of the manor." Jack thought to himself, and then left. He had to be careful about Luchino.
After watching Jack go away, leaving him alone at the door, Luchino took out something from his arms.
It looks like a coin, and it also looks like a commemorative coin. In fact, this thing does not belong to Luchino. As for how this thing came from...
But remember? When the real murderer escaped, he knocked out Luchino's wallet, and the money inside was scattered all over the floor.
At that time, Luchino Frederick and Ganji picked up all the money scattered on the ground. When Luchino was counting the number, he discovered this coin.
It was this coin that made Luchino even more convinced of his idea. Although Luchino is now constantly hinting to himself that he just saw it wrong, but with this coin as evidence, Luchino is convinced that the real murderer is that person.
Yes, Luchino knew him, or they were so familiar that they had two identical commemorative coins to confirm their unwavering friendship.
Luchino was very sure that these two commemorative coins were a unique pair in the world, and there could not be a third identical coin. The reason was very simple, because when the person took out the commemorative coin, Luchino was holding it in his hand. At first glance, I realized it was a fake, even the numbers on it were the same.
Although the man was deceived, he soon expressed optimism that in this case, he and Luchino would have the most unique pair in the world.
At that time, this incident was just an episode for Luchino who was doing research, but unexpectedly it was this unique pair of commemorative coins that allowed Luchino to confirm the identity of this person.
This is why Luchino let him go when he could clearly be stopped, and even deliberately lied to the police after seeing what he looked like.
In fact, if this was the case, or if Luchino had another identity and he was just an ordinary person, he would probably have stopped him right then and there, because he didn't want his friend to continue making the same mistakes again and again.
But…………
If it was because of that incident at that time, then it can be said that Luchino was the real culprit why that person committed such an unforgivable crime.
If this is really the case, Luchino feels that he will never forgive himself in his life.
