The warden who guards the witches

Chapter 17 Licking the dog to the end...

At night, Aiden came to the prison interview room. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the witch Daly, whom he had entrusted with the surveillance mission, sleeping soundly on the iron table, with crumbs of butter berry pie stuck to the corner of her mouth.

Looking at the other person's sweet sleeping face, Aiden's eyes twitched.

He turned around and returned to the door, extending his hand to the prison guard guarding the interview room outside the door: " Lend me your baton."

After getting the baton, Aiden returned to the table, stared at Dai Li for a while, and then slammed the iron table with the baton.

There was a loud "bang", and Dai Li woke up with a scream, and her whole body straightened up instantly as if a spring had been installed.

"Good morning, Daly, did you sleep well?" Aiden stared at the witch in front of him with a half-hearted smile, tapping his palm with his baton.

"Dian, Warden?" Dai Li then realized who woke her up. She put her shackled hands on her chest and took a deep breath. "Don't scare me like this. My heart has stopped."

"Wipe the corners of your mouth after eating." Aiden reminded Dai Li by tapping his mouth.

"Oops, I'm showing you a disgraceful look." After hearing this, Dai Li stuck out her tongue and licked her mouth, but she still couldn't lick it.

"It's not clean. Please wipe it with your hands." Aiden frowned.

"Then warden, please wipe it for me." Dai Li acted coquettishly towards Aiden, stretching her fair neck and raising her face towards him.

"Okay, okay."

Aiden showed a "kind" smile, and slowly raised the five fingers of his right hand together, above his shoulder, as if he was preparing to slap an earth-shattering slap in the face.

"Okay, I'll wipe it myself, I'll wipe it myself!" Dai Li quickly changed her words and wiped the corners of her mouth with her fingers.

"If there is no deviation in my memory, I seem to have entrusted you with a surveillance mission." Aiden straightened his face, sat down on the seat opposite Dai Li, and put the baton on the table in a threatening manner. , "I asked you to stay alone in the interview room for a whole afternoon with the permission to cast spells, and even ran errands to buy snacks for you to eat. As a result, as soon as I came in, I saw you sleeping on the table. You'd better not be relaxing. I."

"How could that be possible?" Dai Li quickly apologized, poking her index finger, and cautiously defended, "I'm just too tired. Using magic for a long time is very mentally draining, and I can't watch it now. Target."

"What's the meaning?"

"I can only possess the animal and monitor him, but he entered a place that I can't enter." Dai Li spread her hands helplessly.

"Where?"

"A nightclub called Midnight Rose in Fireworks Alley was led in by a fat man..."

"Wait a minute!" Aiden responded immediately, "Say it again."

"He went to a nightclub called Midnight Rose..."

"No, the other half!" Aiden stared at Dai Li with burning eyes.

"He went with a fat man."

"Is he the mounted policeman with the mustache who chased me away in the reception room this morning?"

"Well...it seems to be him." Dai Li thought for a while and gave a positive answer.

It was Jaron Roden, Aiden was convinced in his heart.

"When did they meet?" Aiden asked.

"About 8:30 in the evening, it seems that the fat man asked the kid out."

These two guys are actually mixed together. It seems that his guess is generally correct.

Judging from the intelligence provided by Veronica, Jaron Roden is currently the most likely culprit of the murder, and Bruce Kane disposed of the evidence in order to cover him up and framed the crime on Veronica.

If this reasoning is true, the two people will undoubtedly form a relationship of accomplices. One of them will be investigated, and the other will definitely feel nervous if he knows about it.

Today he asked Bruce to talk, but Jia Long hurried to the guest room to interrupt their meeting, and then asked Bruce out for a private chat that night... Did he want to warn him?

If that's the case, what method did Jaron use to get Bruce to perjury?

Is it using money to induce someone, or is it using their authority and background to coerce... or is it a combination of both.

In order to find the flaws in Bruce's perjury, this point must be clarified.

"Tell me about that boy's schedule today." Aiden ordered Dai Li.

"I have written it on paper, please take a look." Dai Li handed over a report paper placed on the table.

Aiden took it and suddenly frowned, lifted the paper and shook it: "Why is this paper wet?"

There was a large puddle of wetness on the report paper, and a small part of the ink was melted away.

"This, this..." Dai Li pursed her lips and smiled awkwardly, "I accidentally spilled it when I was drinking water..."

"It must be that you bleed while sleeping!"

Aiden pointed out bluntly, then spread the paper on the table and began to read the content on it carefully.

"At 2:10 in the afternoon, I left the police station to patrol uptown. When I passed the Royal Opera House, I queued up and booked two tickets outside the door... huh?" Aiden thought for a moment, "I remember the tickets there are not cheap, right? ”

The Royal Opera House is the most luxurious theater in the entire Silver City. When a popular play is performed, a ticket must cost at least ten shillings. Converted to Aiden's original world, it can basically be compared to the ordinary price, which is close to 10 shillings. A thousand-dollar celebrity concert ticket will cost twice as much if it’s in the hands of a scalper.

"It should be for a date with a girl. You will know if you read on." Daley smiled meaningfully.

Aiden continued to read on: "He returned to the police station at five in the evening, left work at half past five, went to the Queen's Hotel, sat by the window, and a female companion arrived at six o'clock. The two of them had dinner until seven o'clock..."

He raised his head and asked Daley: "How old does the female companion look?"

"About twenty years old, very young anyway."

"Lover?"

"There is a subtle difference. In my opinion, it should be that kid who is pursuing her." Daley smiled meaningfully, "Look below, they went shopping after dinner, and the boy bought the girl a coat, but he didn't even hold the girl's hand the whole time."

Aiden fell into deep thought again. The per capita consumption of the Queen's Hotel was about ten shillings, which was almost the same as the slightly expensive hotel with a per capita cost of four or five hundred in Aiden's previous life.

Bruce's weekly salary as a trainee police officer is about a little over one pound. Even if he was promoted recently, the increase would not be that big. If you have to say, his financial strength is not much different from those office workers who earn four or five thousand a month.

If Bruce came from a middle-class family, this level of spending would be understandable, but according to Veronica, this guy seems to be from a poor family.

If that's the case, he spent so much money to chase a girl...

"If this is not a windfall, then he is a dead licking dog." Aiden murmured.

Hearing this, Daly smiled at Aiden in a flattering way: "In fact, I am also your licking dog, the warden, woof woof!"

She gestured with her hands to form the shape of a dog's paw, posing a cute posture.

"Hey, you..." Aiden raised his eyebrows at her, "You should be considered my running dog."

"I'm sad, but I'm so fond of you." Daly pretended to be sad and fell on the table.

Aiden ignored her and continued to stare at the report paper.

He never believed the prisoners' words.

In his eyes, there was no affection between him and the female prisoners he used, only transactions of interests.

After all, the most taboo thing in this line of work is to easily trust prisoners.
