[Comprehensive British and American] Almighty Witch

Josh took Adeline's phone and looked at it: "Rene? By the West River?" He tapped the screen a few times quickly with his fingers. As soon as the screen refreshed, the detailed information of the person who left the message was displayed: Cedro Room 24, Building 502, Third Block, Xihe Street, Zhen, Rene Joyce, female, 267xxxxxxxx (Pennsylvania mobile phone number).

"Burke, your friend Childe's family lives at No. 8, Eighth Street, West River Street, right? This Renee's house is not far from his house. Just drop me off at the block square, and we'll call later!"

Josh went back to the previous page while talking, and flipped up casually, and saw the signboard and text description of Adeline's online store. When he saw it, he couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Adeline, it's not good to design your store like this. A hundred people saw it and 99 people thought you were a liar!"

Adeline turned around and took back her mobile phone, glanced at Josh and said, "Isn't there only one person left? With such a large population in the United States, one hundred to one is enough for me to keep busy!"

"Oh no, does the rest of you think you're joking too? I can swear this Renée thinks you're joking, so he (she) made a joke of you too."

At this time, Adeline also saw the detailed contact information of Rene according to the traces. She turned off the phone screen and replied indifferently: "Isn't it better to be joking? The fewer those weird things, the more peaceful our life is now." Besides, if the strange things Rene encountered are true, would I still dare to let you go there alone?"

Josh thinks about it too, he doesn't even want to see Wesen again, let alone a supernatural event: "That's right, you see, I can't help you much, why don't you go for a stroll in the town and listen to Listen to what this guy named Rene has to say!"

Burke didn't quite understand what the two were talking about, but he had already arrived at the block square, he parked the car to put Josh down, and arrived in front of the Childe's villa not long after, forgetting about it for the time being.

Childe, who got the news, was already waiting outside the gate. When he saw Burke and Adeline getting off the car, he hurried up to greet him: "Burke, hey, I haven't seen you for many years, you are still the same!"

Burke approached and patted Childe, who was half a centimeter shorter than him, on the shoulder, and replied affectionately: "Yes Childe, I haven't seen you for almost ten years, and you look much more handsome now than you did back then!"

Back then, Childe was just a boy from a small town who had just entered university, but now Childe is a young millionaire worth millions, and his temperament is far from the same.

Adeline deliberately took a step behind, watching the two equally excellent men embrace each other, thinking that the relationship between the two should be really good back then, no wonder Burke, who was prudent in Adeline's impression, agreed to help Childe busy.

"Look at me, I was so focused on reminiscing with you that I almost snubbed this beautiful lady!"

After Childe also patted Burke on the shoulder, he quickly walked up to Adeline and stretched out his hand and said, "Miss Adeline, right? Hello! I am Childe Turner, Burke's college classmate. I have been with Burke for a long time. I heard about your name there. This time there was some trouble at home, so I specially asked you to come and take a look through Burke. Don't worry, no matter whether the matter can be resolved, I will not let Miss Adeline run away in vain. trip!"

Childe's words were polite and straightforward, especially the last sentence, which showed the true qualities of a businessman, which won Adeline's favor.Since it's a business, it's best to say it straight to the point, and it's easy to use money to do things!

Adeline smiled from the bottom of her heart and shook hands with Childe. She said directly, "Hello, Mr. Turner! To tell you the truth, I am in a hurry, and I have to rush back tonight because I have something to do at home. How about, let's go directly to the place where the accident happened, and talk while walking on the road?"

Adeline's words obviously hit Childe's heart. He smiled until the corners of his eyes were piled up with fine lines. After nodding in agreement, he directly got into Burke's car. Under Childe's guidance, the three of them drove the car for about a quarter of an hour. In front of a ten-story building facing the lake.

Childe had called his wife in the car, and when they got out of the car, a tall lady dressed in a white collar was walking briskly out of the building.

From a long distance away, Adeline heard the lady say loudly to Childe in a bad tone: "Child, why are you here again? I said that you don't need to interfere with my affairs, just like I won't interfere with your Turner's fishery." The same thing. I think the two of us have already reached a consensus on this matter!"

Childe turned a deaf ear and showed no trace of embarrassment on his face. He nodded slightly to Burke and Adeline, then walked forward and embraced the tall lady's shoulders and introduced them: "Burke, Adeline, this beautiful The ladies are my wife Mina Kirk; Mina, this is my college friend Burke and his friend Adeline."

"Burke Hansen!"

"Adeline Scheider!"

Adeline and Burke greeted Mina in turn. Mina's expression improved a lot when she saw that Childe had not brought those chattering people here this time.

"Mina, my friend Burke is the sheriff of Andro Township. He used to work in the Chicago Police Department, and Adeline was his assistant. I know that my rush to the doctor made you angry, but This time we pay attention to science, let Burke and the others help us find out the reason from the perspective of the police!"

After hearing Childe's words, Mina understood that he was bowing his head to her, and then thought that all her savings and hard work had been invested in this apartment, and it was impossible to give up halfway, and Burke and Adeline looked closer than before. The chattering people looked much more reliable, so they finally nodded, accepting her husband's kindness.

Childe, who had been suffering from a headache for half a month, finally saw a glimmer of light, and he immediately turned around to tell Burke and Adeline what happened in detail.

It turned out that the bachelor apartment building invested by Mina was built on the former site of a hotel.After Mina bought the land, she immediately demolished the former "Tribethia Hotel" that had been abandoned for nearly ten years, and built the modern seven-story building with a total of [-] single rooms. apartment.

Mina’s idea is that except for the first floor, the other floors are used for rent. There are several lakeside factories and a middle school near the building, and the source of renters is still guaranteed; while the first floor is reserved for relevant management personnel to work and live. As well as public facilities such as laundry rooms and gymnasiums, the rental buildings in the town basically have this structure.

When Adeline heard this, she raised her head and looked at the apartment building in front of her at the right time. The seven-story building was not too high, maybe because they were standing too close to the building, or maybe because it was overcast today and the clouds were very low, so it wasn't too high. Adeline's first impression of these seven floors was that it was oppressive, and Adeline frowned involuntarily.

When Childe introduced Mina, the prominent protagonist was police officer Burke, but he knew that the protagonist this time was actually Adeline, so he kept following Adeline secretly, and frowned when she saw that she hadn't entered the building. My heart sank, and my voice stopped.

However, Mina didn't notice so much. She hasn't even had a good night's sleep for more than half a month because of the apartment. On the one hand, she was worried about the progress of the project; on the other hand, she was a little scared because things were too weird.As a result, his temper became irritable. Fortunately, Childe was very considerate of her during this time and gave way to her everywhere.Thinking of this, Mina's heart softened, and she thought that if the matter was really unsolvable, she could give up as much as she could, there was no reason to really hurt her lover's heart because of her career!

Having figured it out in her heart, her anger went smoothly. Mina stretched out her hand to hold Childe's right hand who had been standing beside her. Childe, who was stunned for a moment, immediately came back to his senses, and clasped his wife back with his five fingers slightly apart.At this moment, Mina felt that her decision was right. At this time, she showed the first smile after a few people met, took up the topic of Childe, and politely invited Burke and Adeline into the building, and said : "Let me tell Burke and Adeline, Childe, after all, I know better."

Childe nodded in agreement, and Burke and Adeline followed the Childes into the building.As soon as Adeline, who was walking last, stepped into the door of the apartment, she immediately sensed that the temperature inside the building was four or five degrees lower than outside.

This feeling immediately made Adeline vigilant. It must be known that Adeline is already a cultivator on the seventh floor of the Qi training period. At this stage, the physique of a practitioner has no obvious perception of the temperature outside. , so Adeline still put on the woolen coat when she saw Tina put on her winter clothes.In the Qingzhou Continent, ordinary cultivators wear thin Taoist robes all year round, because they don't feel how hot summer is, nor how cold winter is.

But in this apartment building, ordinary people who are supposed to be more sensitive to temperature, such as the Childers and Burke who walked a step or two in front of Adeline, have no feeling at all, but a practitioner like her can feel it. It's definitely not normal to be cold.

However, this was within Adeline's expectations. She calmly followed the people in front of her into the elevator, and watched Mina press the button for the third floor.

"Although the apartment hasn't opened yet, the administrators have already recruited them. Two men and one woman lived in the first floor more than a month ago. There was no one in the building before, so no one found out. Come on, something will happen immediately!"

When Mina said this, she looked back at Childe, and Childe nodded to her, encouraging her to continue talking.Only then did Mina take a deep breath and continued: "Before, after the decoration workers finished their work, I personally checked and accepted them. After the acceptance, the rooms were locked. After all the rooms were checked and accepted, the management staff moved in one by one. According to regulations, They have to go upstairs at least twice at night to check, but if there are no special circumstances, they don't need to go into the house to check. As a result, on the first night of night patrol, the only female administrator, Kay, had an accident!"
