Chapter 1268 Hidden

"photo?"

Following Kieran's gaze, Mier saw the photo frame that had fallen to the ground.

The glass photo frame had already been broken by the previous rough intruder. Qin Ran carefully shook off the broken glass and picked it up.

The photo is of Smith himself.

Wearing firefighting uniforms, the other party and his colleagues stood in the sunshine.

Different from the profile photo that Kieran had just seen, Smith's face was no longer expressionless, but had a slight smile on his face.

The kind that you can’t tell at all if you don’t look carefully.

Similarly, if you don't hold the photo in your hand and look at it carefully, you won't be able to find that the photo has a sandwich.

Or to be more precise, a piece of paper that is the same as the photo paper is perfectly affixed to the photo.

Qin Ran peeled it off carefully, but Mi'er beside him couldn't help but asked: "How did you find out?"

It's not like Mier didn't search the room.

In fact, after discovering that Kieran was missing, Mier immediately checked the identity of the attacker and searched the entire room.

But she found nothing.

She even glanced at the photo frame on the ground several times, but she didn't find anything.

If she could pick up this photo frame, Mier would be sure to find the difference, but this was not the time to make excuses for herself.

She is not as good as Kieran.

This is a fact.

But faced with this fact, the girl counselor was not discouraged at all.

On the contrary, she was very happy.

After all, this was just like the witcher she imagined.

"You're just thinking wrong."

"Obviously, Smith knew he was involved in something big, and it was only a matter of time before something happened."

"And him?"

"I don't want to just let it go."

"Therefore, there is a clue of 'double insurance': he will deliberately guide his captor here and let the other party complete his arrangement."

Kieran replied while peeling off the photo paper.

"guide?"

Mier narrowed her beautiful almond eyes, and more thoughts appeared in her eyes.

"Um."

"I don't know what the stolen thing is, but I know that it must not be too big for a person to carry around without being obtrusive, and not to be discovered in the first place."

"Wallets, watches, rings, etc. are all within this range."

"So, if Smith wants to complete this layout, he must limit the clues he left to this range, such as... the bedside table."

"Naturally, the bloodborn didn't find anything."

"Disappointment brings anger. There is more than 90% chance that blood descendants will destroy the bedside table. Naturally, this includes the photo on it."

"And as long as you notice his disappearance, you will definitely check everything carefully when you come here, especially these things that are different from the original ones."

Qin Ran nodded.

Then, with a more careful movement, peel off the last adhered photo paper.

Snapped!

When the two pieces of photo paper were separated, there was a crisp sound. Kieran glanced at the hidden text inside, and put it into his pocket just before Mier's gaze came.

Mier was stunned by Kieran's actions.

But Kieran didn't even look at Mier, his eyes looked towards the corridor outside the room.

"I think we can exchange important information."

Qin Ran said this.

"certainly."

There was a reply, and Will, who was wearing a trench coat and polite, walked in with a cane in his hand.

"Will?"

Mier reacted quickly.

Qin Ran did not tell her the detailed explanations just now, but told Will, her grandfather.

This sense of disparity made Mier a little angry.

She first cast a dissatisfied look at Qin Ran, and then, when she realized that Qin Ran didn't pay any attention to her, she immediately glared at her grandfather.

Unfortunately, Will didn't even look at his granddaughter.

The old police adviser put all his attention on Qin Ran.

Dangerous man!

Will once again defined Kieran.

When he first saw Qin Ran freeze Odekar last night, Will gave such a definition. However, since Odekar is an out-and-out bastard, Will didn't pay attention to it at all.

But my granddaughter is different.

When Will learned that his granddaughter had lunch with the dangerous man in front of him, he rushed out straight away.

He cautiously approached here, hoping to get more information about Qin Ran from the side.

Unfortunately, his caution was of no use.

Will could clearly detect that when he stepped into the apartment, a vague sense of oppression came from the top of the building.

Then when he stepped into the corridor, the feeling of oppression became clear.

And, like a shadow, it follows you everywhere.

He knew he had been discovered.

Kieran's words after that made him understand what Kieran wanted to do.

Exchange information!

As for those words that Kieran said to Mi'er?

Will didn't believe that a man who refused to talk to him would look at his granddaughter differently, even if his granddaughter was very beautiful.

Those kind of people will not be fooled by beauty.

Under Mier's gaze, Kieran and Will walked to the center of the room.

"What do you want to know?"

Will asked.

"Everything you know."

Kieran replied.

"impossible."

"How can an unknown piece of news be exchanged for everything?"

Facing Kieran's lion mouth, Will immediately shook his head and refused.

"If this unknown news can bring that thing, of course it can be exchanged for everything!"

Qin Ran emphasized.

"But my guess is it's more of a rescue message."

"Smith he hoped he would survive."

Will

"yes."

"Smith hopes that he can survive, so he should give him some 'remuneration', right?"

Qin Ran nodded and showed a smile.

reward!

Will was startled and his expression changed slightly.

He was thinking about the possibilities.

Then, he discovered that just as Kieran said, if Smith really wanted to survive, he would definitely throw out a very tempting bargaining chip.

Otherwise, no one would take the risk.

Even if he...

There is also a lot to consider.

Because he is not alone.

After looking at Mill, Will finally gritted his teeth.

He nodded.

"I can tell you everything."

"You also need to tell me everything you know."

"but……"

"You need to help me deal with this special incident. Of course, I will give you a satisfactory reward."

Will said so.

Following Will's words, side mission prompts began to appear in front of Kieran's eyes.

[Trigger side mission: Will’s request for help]

[Will's request for help: As a veteran police consultant, Will has dealt with too many things that are difficult for ordinary people to touch. He has already experienced hundreds of battles, but the recent incident at Edx has made this veteran He became anxious and needed a reliable helper, and you appeared in his sight! 】

"Can."

Faced with side tasks and necessary information, Kieran would naturally not refuse. Even if there was no corresponding evaluation, more staying time was a pretty good reward.

Especially under the premise that 'Wu' has completely disappeared.

"The strange thing happened about two weeks ago..."

PS The fish in sour soup and beef meatball noodles that I had for lunch seemed to have a reaction. Feilong kept running to the toilet... his legs were so weak... T.T
