Carl quit the soul state unwillingly, and waited for a while before getting Cole's answer.

"Mr. Moss said that he was killed while giving directions to others. Because he met that man in a suit shop before and said a few words, Mr. Moss followed him with confidence." Brown Send the narrative of the little boy with a calm expression.

Carl noticed that when Cole was talking, his eyes had been carefully observing him, but he was clumsily covering up his actions.

Karl looked down at himself inexplicably, but found nothing strange.

Or is it that the way he ran so fast just now with two children in his arms doesn't fit the image?

"It really is a suit." Little Steve said clearly beside him, "Does the third murdered uncle also have this specific item with him?"

"Let's go." Carl took out his mobile phone and edited a text message to send to his uncle. Then he picked up the two boys again and corrected him, "The third victim is a sister."

"Huh?" Steve put his arms around Carl's neck naturally, and looked up at him in surprise.

"The murderer didn't only attack adult married men. The third victim was a college student who hadn't graduated yet. The method of death became suffocation, with signs of being tied up on his hands and feet." Carl recalled that Abel gave The information said.

"It doesn't look like it was done by a murderer, does it?" Steve objected, "The style seems to be completely different."

"I'm also a little skeptical." Carl shook his head suspiciously, "This is what the information given by the police station says... the third victim, who didn't read the dense list below, they have their own judgment."

"If it has been confirmed, does it mean that the murderer's tactics are changing? Is there any reason why he gave up shooting?" Little Steve frowned seriously, muttering in serious thought.

"I've sent them all to my uncle, and I'll give him the work of investigation and identification. What we have to do is to get more clues and find the culprit as soon as possible." Carl didn't think so much, and reminded the two children while running.

The place where the female college student was dumped this time was in the middle of the mountain in the suburbs. Because time was too short, Karl had no choice but to take the two boys to take a taxi there. Unsurprisingly, the female student also left her soul because of some obsession. Her specific item is a pair of sneakers.

What Carl cares about is that the pair of sneakers are unisex, because the shoe size is too large. If he hadn’t told him that these shoes belonged to a girl, Karl would definitely guess that they were a boy.

After checking all three victims, here comes the problem...

"Watches, suits, and sneakers, what is the connection?" Cole also frowned with Steve, thinking hard.

"According to the general formula, it should be that the murderer is very concerned about these three items. He has them, or does he not have them? Or... someone he cares about?" Carl sat on the roadside bench, thinking Hole wide open for speculation.

The three of them have now returned to Manhattan, sitting on a roadside bench to rest temporarily, the two children are completely exhausted, Carl can only buy a bottle of drink and a hot dog for each of them, and hold them in his hand.

Carl checked his phone, it was eleven twenty-five.

He was so anxious that he was almost as calm as water.

"Dad, have a drink." Steve held up the bottle intimately, staring at Carl with worried blue eyes, while reaching out to try to give him some relief, "Is it okay to run so fast?"

"It's okay." Carl was even more inexplicable, and while he was a little moved by Steve's obedient and sensible, he raised his hand and snorted the blond boy's hair a few times, and said vaguely, "You know, I'm in good health, and I can run fast. fine."

"..."

But unexpectedly, Steve's expression became more hesitant when he heard this sentence.He wrinkled his face, worried and said with difficulty, "Father...then you must tell me what's wrong with you, your previous wound..."

"Huh? I know." Carl hugged Steve's waist comfortingly, and assured him, "Don't worry, the previous injury has healed a long time ago, and there is nothing wrong with it!"

"Om - hum -"

The phone call that Carl had been waiting for for a long time finally came, interrupting his conversation with little Steve. Carl was refreshed and answered immediately, "Uncle?"

"The investigation came out. We checked the surveillance in the relevant area. In the past month or so, there was indeed a suspicious man wearing a hat whose face could not be seen clearly wandering around several branches of those two brands. It should be a spot check."

"The same goes for the sneaker brand you just told me about. And the three are old brands, the earliest of which can be traced back to more than 50 years ago. According to the purchase records in the comparison store, there are only eight people who perfectly meet all the conditions, excluding those who have passed away over the years. Of those who moved out of town, only four people are still living in Manhattan."

Abel's voice was calm and calm. He paused, then lowered his voice quite a bit, as if he stood up from the office chair, walked to the side and covered the microphone, and said in a low voice, "Carl, but I personally think the most suspicious It's not these four people."

"Huh?" Carl's solemn expression became incomprehensible.

Uncle Abel talked about a lot of investigations, but in the end he suddenly turned around, thinking that the murderer was not these people? ?

"There is a family—" the voice of picking up the paper came from Abel's side, "Alva Garcia, bought a lady's watch of the same model 40 years ago, and her son Brooke Garcia bought a watch 17 years ago." The same silver suit, grandson Vic Garcia, bought the same pair of sneakers five years ago. When I investigated, I found only that they were from the same family.”

"Alva Garcia has passed away now, and only Brooke and his son Vic are still living in Manhattan. The size of their father and son is similar to the man who can't see clearly on the surveillance." Abel whispered.

"So it is." Carl understood.

The two people who also bought the three items were suspected, but the family with such a coincidence was even more suspicious.The size and location are all more reminiscent of a murderer.

There is also a reason why Uncle Abel told him secretly first.

"I'll hurry there!" Carl said tacitly, and stood up with a bang.Uncle Abel certainly can't delay the investigation of the case, but it's okay to let the police investigate the two suspects first.

All Carl has to do now is get there - find and bring back those three lawless cubs!Then how to deal with the murderer and the case is easy to say.

"Steve, take Cole home first, remember Ms. Hill's phone number, and call her in a few hours." Carl hurriedly told Steve.

He didn't plan to involve the two children in the next thing.Otherwise, what is this, in order to cover up three children, and bring two more?What are you kidding.

"Well, Dad, be careful." Steve was very sensible, frowning and said worriedly.

"But...is it really that simple?" Although Cole was young, he had a lot of ideas, and he raised an objection after pondering for a long time, "Even if that family bought those things separately, why would any of them kill that person?" How many people? It’s just because the words of the same style don’t make sense, right?”

"I don't know." Carl sighed sincerely, and patted Cole on the shoulder before leaving, "I can't care so much now, I can only try my luck, even if uncle finds the murderer. Yes, I am most afraid...the murderer is not among the few we suspect."

"I've run out of time." He murmured in a low voice, which was barely audible.

"..." Cole looked up at the brown-haired youth in surprise, his expression changed slightly.

Could it be... Steve's father already knew he was going to die?So why are you so anxious to solve these things quickly?Although he didn't know the specific reason, Cole didn't insist on following him.

He was used to seeing it and it didn't matter, but if Steve's father was going to die... then Steve had to be avoided.

Perhaps Mr. Wood thought so too.

……

Carl didn't pay attention to what the two children were thinking. When he finally arrived at the address given to him by Uncle Abel by car, it was almost twelve o'clock, which made Carl very anxious.

Without thinking about it, he turned in from the backyard, crossed the lawn, and came to the back door of the villa-style independent house. He looked in quietly with a cautious expression.

Even if Karl can easily subdue ordinary people by relying on his own ability, but now he is considered to be breaking into a private house, and if he really bumps into someone, he doesn't need a reason to shoot him.

——Fortunately, his super hearing came into play at this time.

Carl vaguely heard the sound of "woo hoo", as if someone was gagged and struggling desperately.

He quickly held his breath and listened more attentively.

"You still want to frame your father, it's so annoying!" With a childish voice, Xiao Haila's voice was full of disgust.

"It turns out that the rebellious period will become so terrible." Little Sol's voice also murmured with lingering fear, "I will never...be like this in the future."

"You still say! Idiot!" Little Rocky was disgusted and angry, "If it wasn't for your impulsiveness, how could we have been exposed? What should we do now? He has seen our appearance and abilities!"

"Kill to silence?" Little Haila's voice suddenly became gloomy.

"Woo! Woo!" The voice of the gagged person struggling and whimpering immediately rose an octave, and the scream became more and more tragic.

Carl: "...??"

He finally breathed a sigh of relief, showing a relaxed smile, and pushed open the unlocked door.

"Who is it!" At the critical moment, little Sol was the quickest to react, and looked over vigilantly with a hammer in his hand.

The next moment, his wary expression melted into a bright smile full of joy, and he shouted happily: "——Dad!"

Qi Qi rolled his eyes at the siblings who didn't come to speak and who didn't come to rush over.

"Saul, don't think I didn't see it... Your hammer appeared instantly." Carl was used to catching the blond child first, while reminding him feebly.

In the living room of this ordinary house, in the corner sat a tight man bound by rope and tape, his eyes were terrified and he was struggling desperately.If you don't look at the kidnappers as three children, this situation looks like... the man is the poor hostage.

"Dad, look, we found the murderer!" Saul reacted and happily claimed the credit.

"He also discovered the ability." Loki gave his brother a hard look, and said uneasily.

"This is bad news." Carl also had a headache hearing it, but what he needs to figure out most now is what's going on now.The brown-haired young man pointed to the eldest sister Hela who kept calm and kept silent, and asked in a gentle voice,

"—Hella, what happened after you came out?"
