Potsdam sky

Mr. Sith, let me do my dirty work too. "

The butler, who was wearing a traditional black tuxedo, nodded politely, exited the restaurant, and returned shortly afterwards with a heavy red dictionary in his hand.He handed the big thing in my hand, I thanked him, and opened the dictionary.

"Then I'll be disrespectful." I smiled at Miss Eliezer, and when I said such a wisecrack, everyone present laughed easily.

I turned to a random page and pointed to a word: "The second word on page 1113."

Miss Eliezer smiled and seemed to think for a while, then replied: "The word is kimono."

I stared in shock for a moment at the word I was referring to which was actually written as "kimono".

"That's too unbelievable. What about the seventh word on page 1501?"

This time Miss Eliezer quickly gave the answer, it was "pineapple", that's right.

"It's amazing. May I ask how you memorized so many words? The entire Oxford Dictionary has 18 words at least. This is definitely beyond the reach of ordinary people." I couldn't help being curious and asked .

"...Well, doesn't that just show that I'm not an ordinary person?" Miss Eliezer smiled mysteriously, and didn't tell me the secret of the so-called endorsement.

Now I am full of unbelievable approval for this beautiful and lovely fiancee in my heart. It is not an exaggeration to say that Daniel can marry such a wife. I am a very smart person. I never thought that "There are people outside people, and there are mountains beyond mountains". This sentence is really true.

After dinner, it rained heavily.Everything came so unpredictable, a clear thunderclap brought down the downpour, even indoors, you can clearly hear the sound of raindrops hitting the ground, for people like me who hate rain by nature, It was a kind of torture.

"Guys, why don't we go to the card room and play a few rounds?" Daniel suggested before everyone left.

We all agreed that in such weather, it is natural to play some games with friends to be able to resolve the depression.So everyone entered the well-decorated card room together, and after discussing it, they decided to play Chinese mahjong.

I didn't expect that this kind of card game that only appeared in China would be well known to the people present. Most importantly, I can also play it. The rules of Chinese mahjong are simple, but it is a test of luck and eyesight.

However, the standard number of people in mahjong is four... I looked around for a week and found that only me, Daniel, the detective and the playboy Utred were left on the scene. Ellie left the restaurant and went back to the room, and Bennett didn't know when he disappeared, but I wasn't surprised that he didn't keep up.

"It's exactly four people," Daniel led us to a green square table, "I bought a mahjong table specially. It's funny to say that there is almost no local production or introduction of this kind of automatic mahjong that is everywhere in China. I also asked my friends in China to send me the table so that it can be placed here."

As soon as we sat down, the machine started to operate with little noise. Within ten seconds, the mahjong was neatly arranged and lifted from the bottom of the table.

Although I know some principles of playing mahjong, in fact I am not very proficient in it. Apart from luck, there is almost nothing to rely on. The detective who has won the most is actually the silent detective, although I can't see it. His expression, but he guessed from the bottom of his heart—maybe his mouth under the bushy beard was raised high, happy with his victory!

At the end of the game, of course, he lost a mess. Detective Mr. Zebulon's chips piled up into a hill. Uhtred, who was the most impatient at the scene, saw the chips in his hand gradually disappearing, and finally stood up in embarrassment.

"I lost," despite saying such embarrassing words, the seemingly shameless playboy still flirtatiously raised his golden bangs, "Sorry, I'm going to the toilet."

Such an abrupt departure made us all a little puzzled. Maybe Uhtred was a person who was extremely afraid of failure, so he left in such a hasty gesture like "running away", but we didn't stop him, because we couldn't make a table , we can only shift positions and play billiards.

Billiards—a gentleman's game, I know a little bit about it, but I'm not very good at it.The clubs of Daniel’s family are all high-grade log clubs made in Germany, which are almost weightless. If you can really touch its body with your palm, you will be shocked by its incredible smoothness.

The lighter the stick, the more it tests the skill of using strength in the hand.I have never been good with my hands, so even if I got such a good club, it can only be used as a stick.The game didn't go well at first, Daniel cheered us on, and I played against the detective, and lost pretty badly, I only "happened" to score two goals before the detective won, and Uhtred halfway through Back, but just watching from the sidelines.

Even though I feel great displeasure in my heart, I can only compare him with Holmes and come to the conclusion that "the detective is really omnipotent".

The more silent the guy, the more powerful he is.This sentence is indeed true.As soon as I lost, Daniel took my place and fought the detective hard.It is not easy for people who can succeed in business, and the battle situation is much better than mine.

A ball into the hole declared the detective's victory.

Due to the heavy rain, all the windows were tightly closed, but the sound of crackling rain outside could still be faintly heard. The rain was so heavy that the three of us hardly spoke a word in the huge card room. I think When I was bored, I listened carefully to the sound of the rain. I seemed to hear something, but I didn’t seem to hear anything.

The raindrops hit the hard concrete floor like a thunderbolt, gradually accumulating to form puddles one after another.I can imagine such a scenario.

The giant bell on the wall of the card room rang twice, announcing the arrival of two midnight.

Although we are all a little sleepy, we still have no plans to go back to sleep, and I don't want to hear the sound of rain echoing in my ears all night.

After a thunder that pierced the quiet space, the door of the card room rang.

We saw the drenched butler push open the door and come in. He was only wearing a white shirt on his upper body, and only his gray hair was drooping on his head, making him look a little embarrassed.

Daniel straightened up. Seeing such a housekeeper, he frowned and asked, "Yves, did you run outside in the middle of the night?"

"Yes, young master," the butler bent down and stood by the door, "when Shirley followed me to close the window, she jumped out through the gap. I shouted a few times and she didn't come back. I was able to go out to look for it, but because it was too dark, I didn’t get it back until I found it.”

"Shirley is...?" I asked curiously.

"Oh, Shirley was originally a cat that Ellie and I had, but for some reason it seemed to like Yves better, so we let him raise it for us." Daniel explained.

"Oh..." I nodded.

"Shirley must be drenched. Please go and help her take a bath. If there is something wrong here, we can solve it by ourselves. Yves, you should take a bath too. It will be bad if you catch a cold." Putting his billiard stick on the ground, he frowned again. He seemed to think that Ive's embarrassed appearance was embarrassing.

"Yes, young master." Yves bowed slightly again, turned around and opened the door of the card room and walked out. There was a pool of water stains that were not deep and not shallow where he was standing.

For some reason, the few of us were no longer interested in continuing to play, so we said a simple farewell and went back to our rooms.Unexpectedly, within a minute after I entered the room, I heard Daniel's thrilling screams from outside the door.

Without thinking too much, I quickly turned around, opened the door and ran out. Detective Zebulun, who lived in the room opposite me, also ran out at the same time. There was not much communication between us, and we just ran towards the master room quickly. go.

"What happened?" Uhtred, who arrived first, gasped and stood in the corridor, while Daniel was standing pale at the door.

At this time, Bennett, who lived next door to him, opened the door sleepily and walked out with a confused look on his face. For some reason, I think he looks more like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy now.

"E... Ellie Eze—!" Daniel yelled and rushed in.

I was inexplicably surprised, and quickly followed up to check.

There was an overwhelming smell of blood in the room, and through Daniel's figure in front of the bed, we could clearly see the beautiful Miss Ellie, lying on the luxurious double bed with a bloodless face, beige On the bed sheet, a large spray of bright red blood spread from the root of her lower body.

What a shocking scene that was, and it is now being truly presented in front of me.I never thought that I would encounter a murder case in my lifetime—how could such a beautiful and intelligent lady as Ellie be willing to hurt herself?

Everyone present was almost stunned, only Zebulon continued to step forward, he stood opposite Daniel, bent down to look at Eliezer's body, he took out a pair of white gloves from his coat pocket and put them on his hands , the movement slightly rolled Ellie Zee's eyes, as well as the pajama skirt.

"I'm sorry, Miss Eliezer
