Extraordinary Puppeteer

Chapter 169 Fire
Danetta screamed in panic after receiving Eric's order.

"Not good, kitchen!"

The village girl rushed to the kitchen eagerly, while Eric said helplessly to Charlotte, "I'm sorry, but she is so careless, I made you laugh."

Charlotte shook her head and said politely: "Where, I visited rashly, please don't mind."

He just thought that the maid opened the door to greet him and relaxed to take care of the food that was cooking.

"I don't know what's the matter with you?"

Although Carlin kept complaining in his heart, he still manipulated Eric to ask Charlotte's reason for coming with a smile.

"Mr. Eric has not been here for a long time, has he?"

Charlotte didn't immediately explain the purpose of coming, but started a routine with Erica, just chatting like this.

"Yeah, the business environment in the New World is too harsh. Originally, my father was a strong professional man who was able to keep his wealth, but he passed away in an accident last year.

I can't keep those coveted factories and plantations with me alone as a trainee, so I sold all the real estate and left the New World."

"It's such a pity, please forgive me"

While the two were chatting, Danetta had already arrived in the kitchen. At this time, the kitchen was filled with white mist, isolating the spirituality here from the outside world.

Danetta knew that it was the owner who wanted to facilitate her work, so she immediately ignited a flame with both hands and rushed to put the food on the table and stove.

With a bang, the stove and the food on the table were burned to ashes, and then Danetta took a deep breath, and cast the flame again to ignite the wooden table.

All the movements caused by her ability were not noticed by Charlotte in the hall.

Danetta's cooking skills were taught by Carlin, and some of the dishes were unique to Carlin's hometown, and it happened that Charlotte once had a meal at his house.

It would be great fun if he saw the food in the kitchen, and Karin had to let Eric kill him.

Killing Charlotte is easy, but it can only be covered up for a few days.

Afterwards, Mycroft, who was furious over the death of his own brother, could easily find out from Charlotte's itinerary that his brother's last public appearance was 9 Molly Street.

In this case, Eric's innocent identity will probably be given up.

Karin doesn't want to give up this identity for the time being, otherwise it will be much less convenient to act in the capital of steam.

The next moment, the white mist in the kitchen disappeared, and a puff of smoke drifted out from the room, followed by another scream, accompanied by violent spirituality.

In the hallway, Eric, who was fighting with Xia Luoxu, changed his face and rushed to the kitchen.

And Charlotte was stunned for a moment, he felt that the kitchen seemed to be on fire, and rushed to the kitchen after him.

When he got to the kitchen, he saw that the stove and the wooden table were burning, and Eric and Danetta were putting out the fire.

Danetta held a wet cloth and stood in the flames frantically beating her. The flames didn't seem to harm her in any way.

And Eric cast a ball of cold white mist to keep dousing the flames.

Soon all the flames were extinguished, but the kitchen was in a mess, with ash and smoke everywhere.

Eric's face was livid for a while, but immediately became helpless again.

"Your blood power is too violent to be well controlled. It seems that you are not suitable for doing housework in a short time."

Then he looked at Charlotte apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, she is a good seed I found in the talent agency market, and she has only been a superhuman for ten days.

Although relying on last night's spiritual shock to complete the novice level growth period in one breath, but temporarily unable to control the power of my blood, I often make such jokes, which makes you laugh, why don't you come to visit another day? "

The meaning of seeing off the guests in Eric's mouth is very obvious. After all, this kind of thing happened to the host's house, and it is not good for the guests to stay longer.

But Charlotte didn't seem to understand, and said politely: "I'm the one who interrupted, and I won't waste your time."

"Okay, please hurry up, I haven't had breakfast yet."

Eric expressed his dissatisfaction tactfully. It is very rude for a guest to force the host to accompany him hungry.

And Charlotte just showed an apologetic smile, and then he stopped hiding and directly stated his true intentions.

"Actually, my visit this time is because of the case of the Shadow Brigade."

Eric felt helpless, and it was hard to shake Charlotte's face. After all, he was the younger brother of the chief of the Security Bureau, and he was also a member of the aristocratic class.

When he is a newcomer gentleman from the countryside, he can't be too reckless and tough when he is dissatisfied, otherwise he can't maintain his personality and easily be noticed by Charlotte.

In the face of Charlotte, it is most appropriate to express dissatisfaction in my heart appropriately, but to be very polite with regard to the identity of the other party.

Leaving Darnetta to tidy up the messy kitchen, Eric and Charlotte sat down on the sofa in the hallway while walking and talking.

Through Charlotte's narration, Karin knew what was going on.

The Brent Kingdom officials searched everywhere for traces of the Shadow Brigade with great fanfare, but they have found nothing so far. Instead, they have made a mess of several low-level civilian areas in the lower reaches of the Ram River.

During this period, some nobles and extraordinary organizations have expressed their dissatisfaction, because some black gloves and gray businesses supported by them have also been affected. I hope the authorities can pay attention to the intensity.

It is no problem to search for the shadow brigade's traces, but their interests cannot be affected.

So the officials no longer hunted and arrested with great fanfare, but turned into a state of being loose on the outside and tight on the inside to secretly track down clues.

Charlotte was obviously also working on the case of the Shadow Brigade, and he made a breakthrough on the Transcendent who had only come to the capital of steam from other places in the past few months.

According to statistics, a total of more than [-] supernatural beings from other places came to the capital of steam within four months. He went to visit one by one to search for some clues. He has visited more than [-] so far. Here comes Eric.

Eric listened to Charlotte's story with a smile on his face, and said after the other party finished speaking: "Then do you think I have any suspicion?"

Charlotte smiled and said: "Based on the information collected before and the observations just now, I can be sure that you are a kind gentleman.

If it were someone else who encountered this kind of maid, she would have been scolded and fired long ago, but you have graciously forgiven her mistakes. "

Eric just smiled. He didn't believe a word Charlotte said. Otherwise, what happened to the two detectives who had been squatting near the apartment to monitor his movements these days?

"Normally speaking, this is true, but she is also an extraordinary person after all, and she will become my housekeeper in the future, so of course she cannot be treated like a mortal.

From this point of view, my suspicion has not been cleared. "

After sighing, Eric picked up the newspaper that had been thrown aside before and said: "Compared to the Shadow Brigade, I think you, a great detective, should care more about these missing girls. This may be the crime committed by the superhuman. .”

After hearing this, Charlotte took the newspaper and saw today's headlines.

'The serial disappearance of girls in the downstream has added another victim.'

In the past six months, many young girls from several districts in the lower reaches of the Lamu River have disappeared. They are all young girls from low-level civilian families.

In fact, girls started to disappear earlier, but those who disappeared were all low-level civilians, so the police station didn't pay much attention to this.

However, as the Central District and the business district also began to have girls disappearing continuously, it attracted the attention of the authorities.

After all, the life of the bottom mud legs in the lower reaches of the Ram River is worthless, but if decent people have accidents one after another, it will be very serious.

So the police finally began to intervene in the investigation, but until today there is no clue about this case.

Charles also understood what Eric meant, and the other party expressed some dissatisfaction to him tactfully, suggesting that he was not very busy.

If you have time to investigate the case of the Shadow Brigade, you might as well focus on the case of the missing girl.

After all, criminal gangs of the level of the Shadow Brigade naturally have officials to worry about, and there is no shortage of Charlotte.
