Chapter 20 Help
Ke Wen brought Angela to the private space on the third floor, and the two of them sat down in the living room.
"Tell me about the situation."
Ke Wen poured a glass of water for Angela and said, "Is there something wrong with you or someone else?"
"It's someone else."
Angela sighed, and then said with some sadness: "That was my previous partner. When I first entered the police station, it was Thain who led me, but two days ago..."
After a moment of silence, Angela shook her head slightly: "He was killed."
"Condolences."
Ke Wen comforted and then asked: "Since you can walk into my office, it means that this is a supernatural case. Have you investigated any information?"
"There is no intelligence."
Angela shook her head: "The autopsy result was cardiac arrest caused by an acute heart attack, but I smelled sulfur at the scene, and besides..."
Angela pointed to her temple: "My talent is called psychic, right? I feel recently that this talent that I once gave up seems to be gradually recovering."
"Most police officers have not fired a shot for more than 20 years, but I always know where they are, where to aim, and when to shoot. Now I know, this is what my psychic talent brings to me. My sixth sense.”
"But since what happened last time, I found that I can sense more."
With a wry smile, Angela shook her head slightly and said, "In addition, those things are becoming more and more clear in my eyes, oh, sorry Kewen."
Angela patted her forehead and said apologetically: "Back to the topic, when I smelled the smell of sulfur at the scene of Thain's death, a picture suddenly flashed in my mind. In the picture, a devil got into it. Inside Thane’s body.”
"So I'm not sure if that picture is the truth, so I can only come to you for help."
Hearing this, Ke Wen nodded and said: "So now it seems that that is the truth, but..."
Ke Wen asked with some confusion: "Why didn't you find Constantine this time?"
"he……"
Angela couldn't help showing a little regret,
After a moment of silence, he said with a carefree smile: "He left, left the city of Los Angeles, saying he was going to hide in the UK. After all, he had just destroyed a hellish conspiracy and might be targeted in Los Angeles. revenge."
"That's what he said?"
Ke Wen was slightly surprised and said: "If this is really the reason, wouldn't he have sold us two? He himself ran away, but we are equally vulnerable to revenge by hell creatures, right? He didn't think of this at all. ?"
Angela was slightly stunned by these words.
She opened her mouth, and finally had to tell the truth: "Kewen, don't get me wrong, actually...it's actually because of me."
Somewhat shy and regretful, Angela smiled bitterly and said: "After experiencing that life and death crisis, the relationship between John and I... In short, we are a little embarrassed, so he should not be hiding from the devil, but... me..."
Ke Wen smiled, nodded and said, "That makes sense."
"Okay Covin."
Angela didn't want to talk about Constantine anymore and affect her regrets. He changed the topic back and said: "Let's continue talking about this incident."
"Okay." Ke Wen nodded and asked, "Then what do you think?"
"I want to investigate if there is any conspiracy behind this."
Angela said firmly: "If there is, I will find justice for Thain. If not, I also want to avenge him!"
"Are you sure?" Coven asked.
"I'm sure!" Angela's expression became more determined.
"Well."
Ke Wen nodded and said with a smile: "I helped you with this."
"Thank you." Angela smiled softly.
"Then wait for me for a moment and I'll make a call."
As he said this, Kewen took out his mobile phone and dialed the number with Angela's look on his face asking for help.
The call was quickly connected, and a joyful and charming voice rang: "Hey Honey, can't wait any longer? But I have a catwalk show coming soon, so please bear with me for a while."
"Sorry sweetheart."
Ke Wen said softly: "I have received a new commission, so I may not stay at the office in the past few days. I will miss the appointment tonight."
"How could this happen?" A disappointed coquettish voice sounded: "Can't you go to work again tomorrow?"
Ke Wen responded with a smile: "Human life is at stake, so let's do this for now. I will make an appointment with you as soon as possible after I come back."
"Okay Honey."
"Then I'll bring you a gift when I see you later."
"mua~"
Coven hung up the phone as a kiss came from the speaker.
Angela watched all this with amusement, because the phone was not quiet, so she heard it all.
Seeing that Kewen ended the communication, Angela couldn't help but want to joke a few words, but unexpectedly Kewen actually dialed the second number.
"Hi sweetheart."
Ke Wen greeted softly and repeated what he said before.
A minute later, Coven hung up the phone with the same blowing kiss.
When he looked up, he immediately saw Angela's stunned and pretty look.
Ke Wen was a little embarrassed. He put up his mobile phone and said with a smile: "That... customer is a customer..."
Angela came back to her senses. She shook her head with a look of disbelief on her face, as if she was sighing that Ke Wen really knew how to play.
The two of them resolved this issue in a tacit understanding.
Ke Wen stood up and greeted: "Then let's set off now."
"Okay." Angela stood up in response.
Soon arriving at the lobby on the first floor, Coven said a few words to Farah at the front desk, and then walked out of the door with Angela.
Ke Wen did not choose to drive, but got into Angela's black van.
While starting the car, Angela looked at the door of the office and asked doubtfully: "I don't think you have anything special here?"
Ke Wen understood what Angela meant, so he smiled and said: "You can see it now, but you won't be able to see it after the problem is solved this time, unless you call me in advance and get my invitation, or you can really see it again." You need help to see again.”
Angela asked in surprise: "Not even psychics? I mean, can't even extraordinary people see?"
"You can't see it." Ke Wen smiled and shook his head: "Unless the strength is higher than mine."
"What about the girl with smoky makeup from before?" Angela continued to ask out of curiosity: "And your two dates tonight, were they both invited by you?"
"Uh, this..."
Ke Wen's face looked a little strange.
Speaking of which, there were some things that surprised him.
The enchantment rules that Ke Wen imposed on Xiaolou are indeed what he said. Only people who are invited and who really need help can see Xiaolou.
But recently Coven discovered that there is a situation that can bypass the rules he set.
The problem was the women he slept with.
It's not because those women's bodies are contaminated with his aura or genes, but because those women are actually addicted to him.
The consequence of addiction is that those women really need Ke Wen to continue...
In short, that need also met the filtering conditions of the enchantment, and those women became a different kind of customers who really needed Kewen's help.
Therefore, half of the women Ke Wen had interacted with in the past few months had unimpeded access to the office.
After discovering this and figuring out the reason, Ke Wen was dumbfounded for a time.
However, he did not change the settings of the barrier again, but kept the screening mechanism, which was harmless after all.
At this time Angela asked this question, and of course Kewen would not tell the truth.
He could only get by with the excuse that those were real customers.
Fortunately, Angela did not continue to delve deeper and just asked casually.
After the vehicle started and drove onto the main road, Angela asked: "Where should we go first? On site or to see Thain's body?"
"Go to the scene first." Ke Wen responded.
Angela nodded.
After chatting all the way, more than 20 minutes later, the van stopped at the entrance of a narrow alley.
Angela raised her chin toward the alley: "The first scene is inside. Thain died late at night, and it was already the next morning when the body was found."
"Does he live nearby?" Coven asked as he opened the car door.
"No."
Angela also opened the door and got out of the car, shook her head and replied: "This area is surrounded by Thain's patrol area."
Ke Wen nodded, and then walked into the alley with Angela.
Waving his hands to disperse the unpleasant smell, Ke Wen opened his eyes and looked around the entire long and narrow corridor alley.
He walked to the location where the body was found and took a closer look. Finally, Ke Wen shook his head and said, "There are no clues left here. How long has your partner been dead?"
"Three days." Angela answered.
Ke Wen nodded: "It may have been too long, and all the clues have disappeared."
"What do we do next?" Angela asked.
"Take me to see his body." Ke Wen replied: "I hope there are still some clues left in his body. If it dissipates over time like here, it will be troublesome."
"good."
Angela nodded, and then walked out of the alley with Ke Wen.
The van slowly started and drove away from the area.
More than half an hour later, the van stopped in front of a church.
Ke Wen asked in slight surprise: "Is the body here?"
"Um. "
After getting off the bus, Angela was a little sad: "Sean has always been alone without any relatives. He is an orphan, but he has rarely developed correct values. He is a good person and should not suffer that fate, so I I just want to find justice for him."
"He's going to heaven."
Ke Wen casually comforted him and walked towards the church door.
Soon after, the two saw Thain's body in the church's burial chamber.
Thain was an old policeman in his fifties. His body lay in a wooden coffin covered with flowers.
The remains were carefully modified, making the old policeman's remains look very dignified and peaceful.
Angela's eyes were slightly moist. She raised the cross pendant on her necklace and prayed silently, while Ke Wen stepped forward.
Soon he discovered something...
