Chapter 102 Divination! (please subscribe ~ ask for monthly ticket~)

Goethe opens the door.

Outside the door, stood a worried middle-aged man.

tramp.

After seeing Goethe open the door, the other party took a step back and looked at Goethe carefully.

After a while, he asked tentatively.

“Hello, is this the ‘Folklore Institute’?”

“Are you Goethe Winchester?”

“I That is, who are you?”

Goethe brows slightly wrinkle, looking at each other.

There is no impression of the other party in the original memory, but he has seen the other party. It was at Greene High School last night. The other party was a member of the crowd, but there was nothing special. Pay attention.

However, the sudden appearance of the other party today surprised Goethe.

Meanwhile, keep your guard up.

This is a former professional habit.

It is impossible for someone to step into a puddle at the same time, and it is also impossible for someone to bump into a person twice for no reason.

Even though there was a surprised voice from Seusta behind him.

“Mr. Joe Keir?”

As he spoke, the enthusiastic police officer walked over.

“How have you been?”

“Rest assured, we are still tracking the disappearance of little Keir.”

“We will definitely Find him!”

There was determination in Seusta’s shameful tone.

“Thank you, Officer Seusta.”

“I just want to have a chat with Mr. Winchester right now.”

middle age person waved his hand slightly indifferently.

“That’s good…”

“We’ll be back in a while.”

Seusta lowered his head and hurried out.

The security officer was habitually silent and walked out, but when he passed by Goethe, he glanced at Goethe again, and then continued to walk out.

“Troublesome woman.”

Goethe commented inwardly, but showed nothing on her face.

Even if he used the vision of Raven Spirit last night to see with his own eyes that the other party threw a grenade into old Barry’s car.

Goethe certainly won’t let go of the uncertainty of old Barry.

However, Goethe never expected to see such a scene.

To be honest, it was a bit beyond his expectations.

Even if Goethe had the same idea with the other party, it also made Goethe more and more not wanting to have any entanglement with the other party.

Because, Goethe is well aware that women are inherently troublesome.

And a woman like Ann?

It’s trouble within trouble.

Goethe doesn’t like trouble.

“What’s the matter with you?”

Goethe asked when Joe Keir entered the room.

Although the ‘Folklore Institute’ is mainly self-hobby, it will also use its professional knowledge to answer questions for some people and get some remuneration-sometimes, the remuneration is quite generous, at least in When ‘his’ adoptive father Winchester was there, the income of the ‘Folklore Institute’ was considerable, otherwise he would not be able to attend Green High School, one of the very best in the city.

With memories, Goethe received Joe Keir with ease.

And about each other’s impressions?

Goethe also had a rough guess.

The other party appeared here, of course, to find his own son – I saw him identify the murderer last night, and the reports of Barry in the newspapers and news today gave the other party hope. .

As for why the other party appeared in Green High School?

Naturally because the other party’s son should be a student of Green High School.

Or graduates.

And later, the other party’s words confirmed this.

“I hope you can help me find Keir Jr.”

“He was a 12th grader at Greene High School and went camping with four friends when he graduated last year. , and disappeared – I called the police, but it’s been a year and nothing.”

“I’ve tried private investigators, psychics, but to no avail.”

“The former has no clue.”

“And the latter?”

“It’s all liars.”

“But you’re different!”

“You are the real Master!”

“I saw what happened at Green High School last night, you can not only talk to the undead, but also manipulate the ‘Blood Crow’ ‘, you must be able to help me find little Keir!”

The more he talked, the more excited he looked.

A pleading appeared on his face.

There were tears in his eyes.

The other party wears a wedding ring on the ring finger, white gold texture, inlaid with a 50-point diamond, even if it is contaminated with dust, it still maintains its due luster and brightness, and under close observation , Although the other party’s clothes are stained, they are not cheap.

At least, the leather shoes are handmade calfskin.

There is no doubt that this is a father who has made himself a mess in order to find his son.

Goethe is willing to lend a helping hand to such a father.

After all, he was poor.

A property of 123 yuan can’t be called wealthy.

Even if you don’t need to pay rent, you need to eat and drink.

Based on yesterday’s prices, Goethe knew that 123 yuan would not last long.

“I’m willing to help.”

“But I can’t take the initiative to talk to the undead, and similarly, I can’t manipulate the ‘Blood Crow’.”

Goethe emphasized.

You can’t take the initiative to talk to the undead, naturally to prevent someone from asking him to communicate with the undead in the future.

And not be able to manipulate ‘Xuewu’?

Of course because ‘Blood Crow’ is the vengeful Nether Soul, what does it have to do with him, Goethe Winchester?

“Thank you, thank you.”

“As long as you help me find little Keir, I will thank you with all my heart!”

Joe. Keir wiped away his tears and thanked him.

At the same time, keep your promises.

Goethe smiled at such a promise.

He likes this kind of good guy.

If the price is clearly marked, how is it different from those liars?

He is a serious ‘folk scholar’!

“Please tell me more about little Keir.”

Goethe said formally.

“Okay!”

Joe Keir said immediately without omission and in detail.

Goethe listened carefully.

In general, little Keir is an ordinary high school student. Although his mother died young, his family is very wealthy.

In addition, when I was in the eleventh grade, I was invited by the ‘Jinqiao Academy’, one of the top 100 universities, and could enter the university without examination.

It can be imagined that if there is no subsequent disappearance, little Keir is a perfect life template.

“Who was that with him camping?”

Goethe continued.

“Rudy, a friend of little Keir, and his girlfriend Ayman.”

“Gate, Rudy’s friend, and his girlfriend Jenny. “

“They are camping in the suburbs of Star City.”

Joe Keir said.

“Where are they now?”

“After the incident, they immediately called the police and informed me that they were four good children. Came to see me, but I can see that little Keir’s disappearance makes them a little bit separated.”

Joe Keir sighed.

“They’re not in Star City?”

“Yes!”

“They were admitted to universities in different cities!”

Immediately, Goethe frowned.

The absence of the four of them in Star City is not good news for Goethe.

Although he is good at using ‘body’ to solve cases, he is also sure that if there are problems with these four people, he can confirm immediately, but in Goethe’s original plan, except for adapting to the new identity, which was broken one week in advance, the rest of the plan Goethe Not going to change.

He intends to complete the [Main Quest] in the best time and find [Bloody Honor].

This kind of back-and-forth is definitely not part of Goethe’s plan.

Especially four people in four cities.

Even if there is a near-modern city in front of you.

Because, Goethe would never go on a plane.

Goethe has refused all air transport since the crash of a fellow ace in his hometown, and he would never touch an airplane or anything like that without truly ignoring the dangers in the air.

But again, Goethe doesn’t want to give up income.

So, he took the key out of his pocket.

This is a single key threaded through a black braided rope.

It is the door lock key of the ‘Folklore Research Institute’.

“Do you believe in divination?”

Goethe asked.

“Divination?”

“I… believe.”

Joe Keir, who had been deceived by a psychic, was about to refuse immediately, but Thinking of the news he saw today, he finally chose to trust Goethe once.

【End】!

Goethe uses the key in his hand as a pendulum.

‘Is little Keir alive? ‘

Reverse rotation.

Represents death.

‘Is the death of little Keir related to Rudy, Ayman, Gate and Jenny? ‘

Rotate forward.

stands for affirmation.

‘Is little Keir’s body near his camp? ‘

The key is still, not moving.

Obviously, divination is not possible.

Or rather, not accurate enough.

Goethe immediately changed his question.

‘Did Rudy, Ayman, Gate, Jenny move the body? ‘

Rotate forward.

Goethe raised his eyebrows, because he wasn’t asking about one after another person, everyone tried divination, and every time he answered in the affirmative.

In other words, it should be the four people who dealt with little Keir’s body before calling the police and informing Joe Keir, and only in this way, the police’s search would be fruitless.

Moreover, it is definitely not a place where four people are related, such as home and garage.

The police are sure to search these places.

A position that four people can reach without being searched by the police?

Where would that be?

The range is a bit large, and Goethe has no accurate guess for a while.

After pondering for a few seconds, Goethe looked up at Joe Keir who looked expectantly, and shook the head regretfully.

“Sorry, little Keir is probably dead.”

“And Rudy, Ayman, Gate, Jenny.”

“ At least they touched dead bodies.”

“Where is little Keir?”

“Probably between their camp and home, an unobtrusive one Place.”

Goethe whispered.

Joe Keir sat there blankly.

The eye sockets are red again.

“Is there any error in divination?”

Joe Keir asked reluctantly.

“Yes.”

“These are just my divinations.”

“There is a high probability of errors in divination.”

Goethe is candid.

Divination is not 100% accurate, and many factors can interfere with divination.

If it was in the ‘anchor world’, Goethe even suspected that the spirit swing would not move.

Listen to Goethe’s sincere explanation, Joe Keir nodded.

Yesterday’s events, this morning’s newspapers and news reports made him choose to believe in Goethe.

“Understood.”

“Thank you again for your divination.”

“If it is as you said, I will fulfill my promise.”

After saying these words, Joe Keir took out his wallet, put all the money in the wallet on the table, and turned to leave.

Goethe frowned as he looked at the other person’s back.

A familiar feeling is emerging in the other person.

“Joe, Mr. Keir, I have a piece of advice—”

“Be calm in case of trouble.”

Goethe reminded the other party.

Look at the fact that the other party took out the hundred-yuan bills.

A rough look, at least 2,000 yuan.

“Okay, thank you.”

After Joe Keir stepped one stopped, he opened the door, ignoring Seusta and Ann at the door and left.

The two of them returned to the room after seeing Joe Keir’s back disappear at the entrance of the stairs.

“Amazing! Good money!”

Seeing the money on the table, Seusta couldn’t help but light up.

And that Ann put a kraft paper bag on the table.

She said—

“Breakfast.”

Seosta was stunned.
