Mercenaries and Adventurers

Zhao Ji and Mr. Fu Lun returned to Mr. Cardo's house, while the militiaman Davers took a token given to him by Mr. Fu Lun - a small badge, and went to the captain of the militia in their city to ask if there was a Kruman news.

The return was quick, for the afternoon was nearly past by then, and dusk would come in a little while.

Mr. Fullen didn't plan to take the matter until tomorrow, because today he had the help of a young man named Keir, and he was afraid that the suspected Krumman would be found by the gang first.

Once people are taken away by gangsters, it is not easy to get them back.

The two quickly bypassed the people on the street, and Mr. Fu Lun and Zhao Ji came to the alley where Kaduo was. The militia guarding the scene where Cardo was killed were nailing the simple wooden coffin where Mr. Cardo’s body temporarily lived. Mr. Fullen told them to fix the coffin and transport it back to the God of the Dead according to the previous procedure. The church, just hand it over to the people of the church.

The pair then made their way past them to Mr Cardo's house. Outside the door, Mr. Cardo's wife could be heard crying.

"Hey, the crying is quite loud now, much louder than when she heard her husband die!" Mr. Fullen said to Keel with a mocking sound, and pointed to Mr. Cardo's house by the way. door.

Zhao Ji couldn't help but smile bitterly. The death of a lover is more important than the loss of money. The crying sounds are different.

Mr. Fu Lun nodded to the militiaman guarding the door, pushed the door and went in, and Zhao Ji followed suit.

As soon as he entered the living room of Mr. Cardo's house, Pastor Nita of the Church of the God of the Dead whispered a word to Mr. Fullen. When Zhao Ji heard it, it was the sentence 'the family has no money'.

"I guess, do you know where we found what?" Mr. Fullen asked while arranging the clothes he messed up when he came over.

"Is it related to the disappearance of the money?" Nita Shepherd replied in a low voice.

Mr. Fullen snapped his fingers, "That's right, we traced the traces that the murderer occasionally left on the road, and calculated the time and distance that Kaduo walked out last night, and finally found a gangster gambling stall on Glass Street. "Mr. Fullen said loudly to Mr. Cardo's family.

"All the money has been gambled? The one who got the knife, why did he gamble? How can the family members live?" Mr. Cardo's wife, Ms. Milian, cried hoarsely, her voice was louder than outside the door. When I heard it, it was a higher level. And Mr. Cardo's parents wept in low voices of shame.

"I've been asking him not to touch those bad things, why didn't he listen. Now the money is gone, and the life is gone. How can we live as a family." Mr. Cardo's old father was ashamed and mixed He said helplessly to his own old wife.

"Things may not be as simple as you imagined. We found that Cardo's recent frequent gambling is related to a man named Krumman who may be a businessman. They have been gambling together, although they have been in the gang's gambling stalls. Pretend not to know him. But we think that the person who gambled with him is very likely to be the murderer who killed Cardo." Mr. Fullen said loudly to the people in the room.

Standing behind the other party, Zhao Ji rolled his eyes under the cover of Mr. Fu Lun's back. Good guy, it's obvious that he found out the clues, once it comes to your mouth, it becomes the credit of 'us'.

Anyway, Zhao Ji didn't care about this, as long as he could find the murderer who killed Mr. Cardo, and then get the news that Ms. Milian told him about the 'treasure'.

Of course, until now, today's matter of finding the murderer is quite interesting, but it is only for Zhao Ji himself.

Other people in the incident may not find it interesting, and are full of troubles and sorrows.

Death, gambling, gangsters, property damage, none of it is joyful.

"I don't know if you have heard of this name? Or have you heard that Cardo recently mentioned the name Krumen?"

Mr. Cardo's family members shook their heads, saying that they had not heard Cardo mention it before his death.

Shepherd Nita patted Mr. Fulun on the shoulder: "I have a bit of an impression. I seem to have seen this name when I was looking through the recent commodity transaction records of their family. It was also marked with a weight."

"By the way, this Kruman may also be the object of your family's fake sale. This is very possible, otherwise, how could Cardo know such a person? Right?" Mr. Fulun patted his forehead , said to Cardo's family.

"No wonder, my son is such a serious person, why would he go to gamble? The family's business has always been very good. It's all because of that man named Kelumen. He has ruined our family. My son, hey hey hey .”

"Yes, yes, it's all this man's fault. If it wasn't for him, how could my husband die! It's all his fault, Mr. Furren, you must catch him and cut off his head. Let the church Letting go of his beliefs prevents him from going to the Kingdom of God and seeing the gods after death. Nita Shepherd, is that so? Is it so? Can it work?” After cursing Krumen, Ms. Miriam continued Hastily asked Nita Shepherd.

Nita drew the representative symbol of the god of the dead in the air, and replied in a deep voice: "Yes, if the murderer is really the other party. Violent murder and instigating gambling can indeed make the other party lose their faith. The gods all I hate gambling. Although the laws of the world do not restrict this, the gods strictly prohibit gambling in the religious law. You can rest assured that if the other party is really a murderer, he will have no way out in reality and in the kingdom of God .”

The members of Kado, who received the guarantee from Nita Shepherd, all showed expressions of relief, but in a blink of an eye they were distressed by the real difficulties at home.

Mr. Furren asked Nita Shepherd to take him and Keir to look at the transaction records together, to see if there was any address of Clement's residence, and to check other clues by the way.

Kaduo’s wig-making room is in the second room after the living room. As soon as Zhao Ji opened the door, there were some wig-making tools and half-made wigs inside. Zhao Ji noticed that there was no oil lamp in the whole house, and the light came from two windows. It seems that the family also realized that flammable wigs need fire protection. In the past, I might have been on fire when I used lamps, so I might have learned my lesson and used natural light instead of lamps for lighting.

At this time, the sun was setting and the light in the house was not very good. Shepherd Nita found Cardo's transaction record book, walked to the window, and looked up the name of Krummen page by page with the natural light coming in from the window. Mr. Fu Lun and Zhao Ji also moved over. This time, when Nita Mushou checked the transaction records, no one from Cardo followed him. They were all cursing Cardo and Kruman in the living room. No one cared about the possibility of the customer’s privacy being leaked anymore. .

Soon, Shepherd Nita found the page that recorded Krumman's name.

"Haha, although I'm getting older, my memory is still as good as before. How about it, Fulun?" Nita Mushou handed over the book containing the information about Krumman to Mr. Furen, letting him be the leader of the investigation People, he himself stood aside.

"Of course, of course." Mr. Fullen said perfunctory words, and his eyes focused on the pages that recorded Krumman's information.

Seeing that this Nita Mushou was easy to deal with, Zhao Ji stared at the pages of the book and asked Nita Mushou in a low voice: "Hi Mushou, may I ask you a question?"

Mu Nita turned her ears to one side, and said to Zhao Ji with a smile: "Young man, you ask, I know that what Fu Lun said in the living room just now was done by you. I have dealt with Fu Lun for so many years, I don’t know what he is capable of. Haha, it’s just to save him face and not expose him on the spot.”

Mr. Fullen blushed when he heard this, and hurriedly argued: "Okay, okay, didn't I just say 'we' just now, and I didn't just talk about myself. Besides, Kiel didn't care about this either. Nita, I'm just bragging, you have to stand by my side when you see it, don't say it, we have been good friends for so many years, you have to stand by my side."

Zhao Ji giggled and asked, "It's like this. I think you were lamenting that you were getting old just now, but I heard that not all the high-level clergy in your various churches can rely on the mighty power of the gods to slow down aging. Is it life-enhancing?"

Nita shepherd heard Kiel's question, touched his white beard, and said in a deep voice: "You have heard the story of the two priests of the god of rivers and lakes outside the city, right? They are indeed You said it. But you have to understand that not all church members are like that. Those two noble people are obviously loved by the gods they believe in, and they show the mighty power and mind of the gods. And more Those who are like me are serving the gods faithfully."

Zhao Ji nodded, understood. What the old man meant was that he was a priest favored by the gods, and at the same time was a living advertisement for the power of the god of water. And more members of various churches are just offering to the gods honestly.

Don't be envious, the clergy of other churches are already the upper class of the whole society. More than the vast majority of middle and bottom people.

"You see, this Krumman does indeed live in a slum, and is a small businessman who sells oil lamp decorations."

Zhao Ji pointed to the time recorded by Cardo to trade wigs with Krumman: "This time is only a few days away from the time Ms. Milian said to get up and go out in the middle of the night, which is actually the time to gamble."

"That's right, that's right. That's right, it seems that Kado was bewitched by this Krumen and went astray. Ha, the address is recorded here. Let me copy it down, let's hurry up and hurry up." To find him before the gangsters, you have to find him before dark. I don't like running around outside when it's dark. Nita Shepherd, you follow along. Kado has no clues, just Let them lament there, and send someone to notify them when someone is caught," Mr Furren said.

Wait until you have recorded the address of Crumen's house. The three of Zhao Ji and the others came out from Kaduo, took the militiaman guarding the gate of Kaduo with them, and the four of them walked in the general direction of Krumen's house together.

"Does anyone know where this address is? I only know the seat on this section of the street." Mr. Fullen spread out his notebook and showed it to the other three people.

Zhao Ji shook his head and didn't know. He was not as good as Mr. Fu Lun. Although the other party didn't know the specific location, he still knew a general location. And his eyes were completely blackened.

Nita Shepherd also shook his head to express his ignorance. The remaining militiaman opened his mouth to say that he couldn't read the words in the book. Mr. Furren read it to him, and the militiaman shook his head to show that he had heard it, but he had no idea where it was.

When the four of them were at a loss and could only go there first and ask each of them in a stupid way, the militiaman Davos ran over with a young militiaman.

"Mr. Furen, Nita Shepherd, Keir. I brought a militiaman who knows where this man named Krumman is. The captain said that this kid's home is in an alley of Krumman's house. Here you are , your badge."

After receiving the badge, Mr. Fullen was in high spirits: "Great! It's time, young man, lead the way. Let's get there before dark."
