Chapter 966 Watery Locks

Outings are restricted and travel is not allowed. Naturally, the Soul Heaven project cannot be continued.

Even in the Kingdom of Magicians, Ash has to rely on the public transportation system if he wants to travel, let alone the Kingdom of Stars where there is a mysterious chain mechanism. If he wants to travel quickly, he must rely on social resources.

After hearing this, everyone understood the real goal of this serial murder case.

Wei Xi chuckled, Igula blew out a smoke ring, Feili felt a little sad, and Rose was still looking at her phone.

"I understand," Ash nodded, "deal with it reasonably."

Lucia also breathed a sigh of relief. She was actually very reluctant to tell the suspect that you were likely to be acquitted, and she did not recommend vigilante behavior.

But for some reason, even though all the evidence pointed to Yaxiu, she suddenly felt that Yaxiu was not the kind of psychopath who fished for people to kill people.

Even though the outside was crowded with police officers, and even though he was being handcuffed, he still listened to the case in a calm and unhurried manner, as if it was not the first time he was arrested. The calm confidence in his eyes calmed Lucia's anxious mood. Come down. That's why she told Ash not to worry or let the situation escalate. The best option was to just accept the investigation.

"In order to stop me, you actually used this method...?"

Ash lowered his eyelids and exhaled: "It's really her style, simple and crude but effective."

"Rose, where is she?"

"I have sent you the location of her mobile phone." Rose said, "She is moving outside the city."

"I need a car." Ash stood up and said, "The fastest sports car."

"The Oracle Comet, which is limited to 99 units nationwide, is currently the fastest commercial sports car on the market." Rose threw the car keys to Ash, "It has driven here on its own from the station warehouse. Do you need me to drive it?"

"No need." Ash took the car keys, "How many cars did you bring on the trip?"

"There are only two vehicles, the Oracle Comet that can catch up with everyone, and the Phantom Stars that can take everyone with them."

Lucia felt something was wrong, "Mr. Heath, you——"

"Shh." Ash put his fingers to his lips and winked at the female police officer: "Please wait a moment, I'll be fine soon."

"Vichy." He looked at the maid who was eating grapes, "How much do you know?"

"I've only seen her once or twice occasionally." Vichy tore off the skins of the grapes and threw the grapes towards Ash from a distance, "I'm not a pervert, and I won't drive after a beautiful girl and stalk her."

Ash opened his mouth and took the grapes, directly immune to Vichy's strange aura: "Why don't you tell me? If you can't give me a reason..."

"I thought she was just like me, just hungry."

Wei Xi smiled and said: "And do you really want me to snitch? After we go back, if I find out what the Sword Princess and the Witch is hiding from you, do you also want me to tell you?"

Ash's lips moved slightly, he was really convinced by Wei Xi's fallacy. If he allowed Vichy to make snitches, Vichy would be able to sow discord and stir up trouble openly in the future, which would cause even greater harm. He never doubted that if he gave Vichy a little sunshine, she would be so brilliant that it would set everything on fire.

He sighed and looked at the door: "Yigula, how are you?"

The fraudster was puffing away, and the police officers next to him were all as quiet as chickens with dull eyes. As a spiritual legend, he only needs his voice, his eyes, and a little bit of hallucinogenic drugs to make mortals completely relax and forget the sad fact that they have to work overtime at night.

"I don't like people who do tricks behind the scenes." Iguala said calmly, "And the techniques are so crude and have no sense of art at all."

"...but don't you often do little things behind Harvey and me's back?"

"Yes." Igula raised his eyebrows: "What's wrong? Wouldn't a thief not care if his rotten locks were violently broken open?"

"Let's not talk about your poor metaphor, but why do you emphasize that it is a bad lock! You don't need to add the word "bad" at all!"

"After all, watery locks sound quite strange..."

Ash covered his forehead, turned to look at Rose, clasped his hands in a supplication gesture, and said with an embarrassed look on his face, "I'm going to trouble you again..."

"I will solve it. It's not a big problem." Rose said calmly: "Handling the employer's murder case is also the scope of the assistant's business."

"I want to go too!" Feili stood up with a look of remorse on her face: "I should have found out a long time ago. I am obviously the most familiar with her..."

"You also know her character. The more people there are, the more nervous she becomes, and she may have a stress reaction." Ashi said, "And the cause of this incident is me, so it can only be me."

"I'll leave it to you here. I'll be back soon."

Ash pulled Lucia up and opened the glass door of the balcony, and the violent wind and rain outside suddenly blew in. He took the umbrella thrown by Rose and said to Lucia: "Sorry, Officer Underwood, there are snipers outside. I can only ask you to escort me downstairs."

"Fortunately, it's raining heavily today and the visibility is very low." Ash felt the rain hitting his face. "If the time is short enough, it should be fine."

"Mr. Heath!" Lucia thought he was crazy. "All entrances and exits are guarded by police officers. There is no way you-"

"But you definitely didn't guard this escape route."

Lucia watched helplessly as Ash pulled her to the balcony and jumped off the railing from the 27th floor.

When her feet were dangling in the air, her mind went blank. She didn't come back to her senses until the wind whistled in her ears and she felt herself being held by the suspect.

They jumped!

Why? Why? Why! ?

Her daughter is still waiting for her call at home. She also wants to take her daughter to Xiaguang Happy World on the weekend. It will be her daughter’s birthday in a month. She has prepared birthday gifts, and...and...

"Close your eyes."

Ash's voice was clearly audible in the wind. He covered Lucia's eyes with his hands, "It's okay."

As if grabbing a life-saving straw, Lucia closed her eyes tightly, as if a miracle would come if she couldn't see it.

call.

The air no longer roared, and the sound of dripping rain once again occupied the hearing. Lucia was so nervous that her heart was pounding. She didn't open her eyes carefully until Ash said she could open her eyes until her feet touched the ground.

They were on the commercial street next to the hotel. Because it was raining late and there were no pedestrians on the street, only the neon signs of the shops were still bright in the rain.

Lucia looked at herself blankly. She jumped from the 27th floor, but she didn't get hurt at all? It even felt quite refreshing, as if I had just performed a safe bungee jump.

What happened just now? What did Ash Hiss do?

Snapped. Lucia raised her head and saw Ash opening his umbrella, not a drop of rain blowing into the umbrella.

"Officer Underwood, I'm leaving. Please remove the handcuffs."

"……ah?"

"I'm going to chase someone." Ashi said, "So I can't go back with you for the time being, but I will come back and surrender. If you are worried about responsibility, you can say that I am threatening you."

Ash's tone was so natural and caring for her, as if she would really agree. The heroic and resolute female police officer lowered her head and was silent for a long time. Ash didn't urge her. It wasn't until a streamlined sports car slowly drove up to them from the corner that Lucia said: "Mr. Heath, I can trust you." ?"

"Just call me Ash." Ash said, "You can believe in me like you believe in miracles."

Lucia looked at him blankly, then smiled, "What does this mean..."

She took out the key and unlocked the handcuffs. Ash used the car key to raise the door of the sports car and gave the umbrella to Lucia: "This umbrella is for you."

Watching Ash get into the sports car, Lucia couldn't help but ask: "Actually, you weren't the one who committed the crime, right?"

"Why do you say that?" Ya Xiu said with a smile: "You almost convinced me that I was responsible for the murder."

"If you are not the murderer, then you should assist the investigation, and we will definitely clear your name. If you escape and resist arrest like this, it will make the situation more serious." Lucia seriously advised: "If you have to go, you can Take me with you, I can at least cover it up and say you are looking for clues."

Ash glanced at her unexpectedly, "Officer Underwood..."

"Lucia Underwood." For some reason, the female police officer took the initiative to say her full name.

"Miss Lucia, thank you for your concern." Ash smiled and said, "I don't know if it can be considered compensation, but when I surrender, I will say that it was because of your persuasion that I changed my mind and found my way back."

"By the way, you just said that your child is a loyal reader of mine." He took out a signature pad from the car and wrote a few words quickly, "Mr. Heath will be grateful for her support."

Lucia lowered her head and saw a signature pen written on the signature board: "I wish Lucia Underwood and her beloved child happiness."

She held the signed copy and watched the glossy black car door fall, the engine roar, and then the sports car pulled out an afterimage in the rain and disappeared around the corner of the intersection.
