I Forged the Myth of the Old Ones
Page 310
"There's always a stench in the room."
"agree."
Shia also nodded.
"you two"
As Drizzt said, he also patted his clothes, as if he wanted to pat off something unclean.
"He seems to have no reason to kill Dr. House, and according to the law of the case, as the last person to see Dr. House, he is the most suspected, so the possibility of committing a crime is the least."
"It makes sense. Let's go see those two patients next?"
Lu Bian asked.
"I'm going to Mrs. Martina's side first, maybe you can wait for me across the street?"
Drizzt subconsciously touched the pistol hanging under his armpit.
"No problem, we'll have a good meal waiting for you."
Lu Yi didn't have any comments.
Drizzt touched the diagnosis and treatment records in his arms, he brought Lu Jian and Xi Ya to the intersection, and asked them to wait in the restaurant here, then took a rickshaw by himself, walked two streets, and finally came to A shop that sells musical instruments.
The owner of the musical instrument store was playing with the violin. When he saw Drizzt, he didn't speak, and only pointed to the back.
Drizzt walked through the musical instrument store and came to the room behind the store, where two men in suits were sitting, puffing away, filling the room with the smell of cheap tobacco.
Seeing Drizzt, the two got up a little bit, stubbed out the cigarette butts, and behaved more politely.
"This is what Madame Martine wants."
Drizzt handed the file in his arms to one of the men.
"You haven't opened it?"
The man glanced at the file.
"Nonsense, if I haven't opened it, how do I know it's what she wants?"
Drizzt felt that these gangsters really needed a little public education.
"Oh, okay, we will give this to Madam. As for the reward, Madam said here."
The man pretended to glance at the file, but Drizzt knew very well that neither of them could read, so it would be reassuring for an illiterate gangster to deliver the documents.
What he handed to Drizzt was an invitation letter.
"A charity banquet tomorrow night?"
Drizzt didn't ask these two people, he knew that these two people were just passing the microphone.
Mrs. Martina seems to want to participate in this charity banquet, and then test him personally. If there is no problem, then give the money and leave. If there is a problem, then
Putting away the invitation letter, Drizzt returned to the musical instrument store.
He saw the owner of the musical instrument shop was sitting on a chair, and two tall thugs stood beside him. The thugs held the boss down and refused to let him leave.
On the other side, the violin that was just in the hands of the boss was being held by a young man. He played the violin and played a classical melody.
Drizzt didn't yell, and he didn't leave at the speed of light. He saw the car outside the musical instrument store, and he knew very well that if he acted rashly now, what awaited him would be the crisp gunshot of the typewriter.
After a while, the young man put down the instrument in his hand, and he glanced at the motionless Drizzt.
"Hello, big detective, I have a business I want to talk to you about."
For some reason, the young man's face seemed familiar to Drizzt.
The first more exciting novel 3w. zhaishuyuanc-0 must be added to favorites.
===401. We ordinary people are like this===
The young man was wearing a plain brown suit, his hair was a little messy, and his eyes were sincere, just like those beggars who begged for food and rewards. This kind of eyes made it difficult for people to feel defensive and vigilant, but Drizzt knew clearly, This is the kind of person who would stab him from the back to the chest when he wasn't paying attention, and maybe even say something like "The Catania family pays tribute to you".
"If I were you, I wouldn't be playing the violin here without chasing the guy behind."
Drizzt spoke calmly.
"No need, that's not my purpose."
The young man found a sofa and sat down, motioning for Drizzt to do the same.
"Maybe you can't remember my name anymore, but it doesn't matter. My name is Stone now. Stone of the Catania family is also the family's military advisor."
When he heard the name, Drizzt suddenly recalled it.
More than two years ago, when they were in [Crazy Man's Mouth], they rented a car cheaply at a car rental shop in Waste City, and it was this young man who was in charge of collecting the bills at the shop.
At that time he was still called Stone.
"what do you want?"
Drizzt didn't know what price this young man paid and what method he used to climb here.
The strategist of the gang is the person who assists the boss of the gang in handling various daily affairs. Usually, such a person must be a blood relative of the family, and an orphan like Stone is obviously not a relative of the Catania family. The location must be different from ordinary people.
Not to mention, during this period, the rise of the Catania family was said to be related to their new military adviser. It seemed that this young man was far more powerful than Drizzt had imagined.
"I'm not interested in what my immature sister likes to do. I heard you're looking into the Dr. House case?"
Stone crossed his fingers and placed it on the coffee table.
"Correct."
Drizzt couldn't grasp Stone's thoughts, so he only answered concisely.
"Relax, I have no grievances with that doctor. If possible, I'd like to talk to him about my sister's obsession. I don't mean to stop you from investigating."
Stone said flatly.
"Actually, I would like to ask you to continue the investigation, but to report the case to me regularly."
"Someone of your subordinates died in the same way as theirs?"
Drizzt almost instantly thought of what Lu trip said, a doctor, a call girl, and probably a gangster, all died of this glass flower.
Now that Stone, the strategist of the Catania family, came to him and asked him to continue the investigation and synchronize the case, he definitely didn't want to play detective games.
Combining these points, Drizzt immediately thought of this possibility.
"As expected of a great detective, amazing."
Stone laughed dryly, showing no change in emotion. He waved, and the thugs at the side took out a paper document and handed it to Drizzt. It was a simple autopsy report and investigation.
"Glass Flowers."
Drizzt understood immediately when he saw the photo of the corpse.
This gang member also had the appearance of a flower blooming in his internal organs, and was frozen here by the solidification of the glass.
He looked through the autopsy report, and found that the person died a day ago, the night when Drizzt received the mission and met Shia. When the companion was looking for someone, he saw him lying on the ground outside the warehouse in such a posture.
From the time the deceased left until he was discovered, he didn't make any noise that could attract the attention of the people in the warehouse.
The deceased was a relative with a foreign surname in the Catania family, which attracted Stone's attention.
"Our family has expanded rapidly recently. Some people feel uncomfortable with us. This is normal. I want you to investigate the murderer. For the safety of the black street, I think you will definitely not refuse, Mr. Drizzt."
Stone said in a deep voice.
"Safety in Black Street?"
Drizzt laughed sarcastically.
"What? Since we have controlled more than [-]% of the underground transactions in the Black Street, don't you think that the Black Street has become much quieter? Equal power leads to chaos, chaos leads to war, and war leads to death. Only an absolute power can make the entire Black Street Be peaceful, and be peaceful so you can do business well."
Stone is not stingy with words to explain his thoughts.
"Gangster? Good business?"
Drizzt felt that the gangsters that came out of the young man's mouth were different from what he knew.
"Mr. Detective, you don't understand gangsters. Those who rely on coercion and lure to gain positions are all low-level gangsters. The Catania family used to be that kind of gangster, but I think these gangster methods can only alleviate temporary problems. I What is presented is a sustainable family business, we started out with banned stuff, but now we're doing legal business too, dealing with bigwigs in Abandoned City, we're starting schools, we're giving homeless kids a home, tomorrow The charity gala is part of our fundraising.”
Stone's fingers tapped the coffee table lightly.
"It's short-sighted to only think about obtaining profits through illegal and high-risk means. A truly smart person knows how to make his wealth clean, beautiful, and impeccable."
Drizzt looked at Stone, and for a moment there was an idea that this guy must have a good chat with Lu Yi.
"So, Mr. Drizzt, we will not hurt you either. As a detective, you have solved many cases for nothing. Everyone trusts you very much. We also want to have a good relationship with you. This case involves members of our family , I hope that the person who killed him will be sanctioned, this does not violate fairness and justice, does it?"
Stone smiled.
Drizzt looked again at the autopsy report.
"I need to check the body on the spot, and give me the person's whereabouts in the last month, including who he met and what he ate."
He explained some information needed for the investigation, and after entering his field, Drizzt became much calmer.
Besides, this young strategist really didn't seem that violent, at least to Drizzt.
"no problem."
Stone stood up and shook Drizzt's hand.
"Nobody has a great detective like you. As an ordinary citizen, I really feel safer."
""
Drizzt twitched the corner of his mouth and watched the other party leave.
He thought for a while, and went back to the small room behind the musical instrument shop.
The two people in the room were still sitting and puffing, and they didn't know whether they really didn't notice the movement outside just now, or they pretended not to know.
He glanced at the owner of the musical instrument store, left the musical instrument store without saying anything.
"Things are getting more and more troublesome, but at least there is one more clue."
Drizzt sighed, ready to go back to find Lu Jian and the others.
