Life as a police officer in America

"I always feel that the existence of this villa has special significance."

When the translator arrived at the villa, Wang Dengming met him for the second time, Mr. Nongka.

"Professor, your work attitude and enthusiasm are very admirable."

Nongka was originally very thin, but working overtime continuously made his skin look dry and dehydrated, especially his fingers, which were so dry that only the bones were left.

"I don't dare to be lazy. The people in the U.S. Bureau of Unnatural Cases Investigation are all monsters. Sheriff, you don't seem to agree with them. They are a terrible group of lunatics."

The translator observed what Wang Dengming was thinking and said: "To be precise, they are a group of neurotic lunatics."

Nongka said, raising the cereal in the cup.

The oatmeal was of high quality and full of fragrance. Wang Dengming drank a cup of soy milk. He asked Shi Fulan to go to the supermarket to buy it. The soy milk powder he finally bought can be drunk with boiling water, just like the oatmeal in Nongka's hand.

"Chief, I heard that you actually bought the villa for the villa case. I think your operation is an atypical case in the United States."

"Yes, Professor, you seem to have an opinion."

"Yes, how come Ms. Sensi and you have become inseparable lovers? By the way, you are so outstanding that even the boss of the Unnatural Case Investigation Bureau can be dismissed casually, just like a homeless man begging for food. , so Ms. Sensi likes you."

"You really think so?"

"Of course, Mr. Sheriff, don't worry, I don't have any racist cells, never have, you are great."

Wang Dengming smiled and said: "I am not excellent at all. I am only excellent at two things. The first is to manage the security of my jurisdiction, and the second is to care about my property, like this villa."

"But the thing is, you're no longer investigating cases in your jurisdiction."

"No, you're wrong, this is my property."

The translator laughed and used his fingers to straighten his thin hair.

"Yes, yes, you answered my curiosity, because you don't care at all about the ancient book that Director Kay pays so much attention to. Don't you want to know what is written in the book and what huge secrets are hidden in it? ?What words are used?"

"What text?"

"A very special kind of writing, a different kind of writing between ancient Greece and ancient Egypt, just like deciphering codes. When I translated this book, I regarded myself as a powerful secret spy. , I have this feeling, I have also done some research on ancient Chinese oracle bone writing, and I admire all mysterious cultures, including China."

"China is inherently mysterious."

The translator said: "I know the Chinese character for "police". Can you tell me why the Chinese character for "police" uses square characters like that? There is a word of "respect" on the top and a word of the language on the bottom."

"It turns out you have some knowledge of Chinese characters."

"No, no, no, even my lifetime of research can't figure out the true meaning of Chinese characters. Just like what you did, Sheriff, there are some things I can't understand."

Sensi came down from upstairs.

The detective was behind her and said with a smile: "Sponsor, with the nourishment of love, cosmetics are superfluous and vulgar to you."

"Stop talking fancy words."

"You are becoming more and more like the boss's wife. Sponsor, are you thinking of doing some housework again today? Is it cleaning or weeding?"

Senxi said to Wang Dengming: "Police scumbag, this villa is special. You must get the registration number as soon as possible."

When buying a house in the United States, there is no real estate certificate. The relevant official agency will give you a registration number (recording number). However, Americans are very inefficient. It usually takes 2 to 4 months for you to check your name from public records. , if you have found someone else’s name before, don’t be nervous, your house is already in the queue for registration.

If you really need a supporting document, you can go to the court to issue a certificate and get it quickly.

Regarding the registration number, Wang Dengming was not in a hurry. He did not believe that the intermediary dared to play the police. But since Senxi said so, Wang Dengming did not object.

"Okay, let's go after breakfast."

"I don't want to eat today. I feel sick when I see you."

Senxi twisted her soft waist and walked away.

"Mr. Sheriff, does she care about you or hurt you?"

"All of them."

Professor Nongka walked around the living room and said, "Such a good villa should have a name."

"What else would be called a haunted villa?"

"No, you don't understand the mystery. The reason why it is haunted is that you need to have good intentions." "Professor, you are not afraid at all. Many people have died in this villa. When the old hunter died, you were in the villa Keep your head down and translate, you are the chief otaku of the villa."

The translator laughed again: "I'm just a translator. The devil won't make things difficult for me. Mr. Sheriff, please give the villa a name."

Detective: "Ghost Villa?"

Wang Dengming: "Fuck you!"

"How about calling it Quiet Villa?"

"Ghost, Youjing, look, Inspector Satsuma, this is an academic person. Okay, let's call it the Villa of Youji. Why is it called the Villa of Youji?"

"The architecture of this villa is a bit strange. The windows are narrow. Some of the windows are embedded in the walls and protected by protruding stones. This architectural style is rare."

Wang Dengming didn't know what to say. The house was already his, but he never studied it.

"I heard from Mr. Detective that there are many strange things in the villa, such as ancient books and paintings, crosses, relics, and things left over from World War II. If you agree, I would like to walk around the villa and observe. I wonder if you allow it, Mr. Sheriff?”

"It's up to you, this villa is undefended for you."

"Thank you."

The translator walked out of the living room.

"This guy is interesting. He can't be a thief."

Wang Dengming drank the soy milk and rolled his eyes.

"Did Sensi gouge out the old hunter's eyes?"

After a while, Wang Dengming asked: "Did you eavesdrop on our conversation? Or maybe you were watching Senxi and I?"

"How is that possible? Don't listen to Helene's nonsense. She killed me. I guessed it. I also doubt that the man in the woods did the old hunter's eyes."

"You should be so suspicious. It was the man in the woods who teamed up with the nun to dig out the old hunter's eyes."

"No, boss, if that's the case, the old hunter will never have the chance to commit suicide. He will be hanged at the back door. The one who gouged out the eyes is in the villa, most likely your sponsor. She came at the right time for everyone. Everyone knows, what a coincidence, and everyone knows that there is an irresolvable conflict between your sponsor and the old hunter. She once threatened to make the old hunter look good."

"What else do you know?"

"That's all I know."

"Then why didn't you say that Sensi and I dug out the old hunter's eyes together? The hatred between me and the old hunter is even greater."

The detective smiled awkwardly: "It seems that my guess is unnecessary."

"Yes, you are overthinking it. Don't lead me astray. Don't do this. How could Sensi be the one who dug out her eyes? If so, she knows the guy in the woods. Do you think they will know each other?"

"This is doubtful."

"If you have nothing else to do, go and investigate the previous owners of the villa."

"Boss, I think I'd better help you sort out the antiques in the secluded villa today. Some of them are quite valuable. I have to be careful about the translator upstairs."

The detective had been busy all morning when he suddenly heard a roar outside. He walked to the window and saw a bulldozer and a crane coming to the villa.

Such a battle shocked the detective.

"Boss, what's going on?"

"It's nothing. I contacted Xue Jiang Juli last night and he called him for me."

The back door and beam of the quiet villa were destroyed by the combined force of bulldozers and cranes.

"It's clean now! I can do whatever I like with my house. I've been unhappy with this door for a long time. The damn torii should have been demolished a long time ago."

"I asked boss, is this gap too big? It needs to be filled."

"I'm looking for someone. I only have a small aluminum door left at the back door. I also left a dog hole. The rest are surrounded by stone bricks. The construction will start in the afternoon, just get some bricks. You are responsible for this, my dear Mr. Detective, it will be done in half a day, so don’t wait any longer.”

"Okay, boss, complete the task on time. Why do I feel that I am not here to investigate the case, but that I have become your butler?"

“There’s only one path before you—and that path doesn’t lead to the freedom and purpose you want.”
