"That's it."

Kevin Martin recalled with lingering fear and exhaled heavily.

The long story made him a little dry and wanted to drink water.

After receiving Qin Nuo's answer of "1 cup of water, 1 shilling", he immediately gave up the idea and prepared to go back to the church to ask for water.

"Two detectives, I have told you everything I know about the abandoned apartment. When are you going to start?"

Kevin Martin pursed his slightly cracked lips and spoke.

He really wanted to find out what appeared in the apartment.

But he had no ability, so he had to ask others for help.

"Now, right away.

I said, time is money."

Qin Nuo put away his notebook and turned to walk out.

"Wait, Mr. Detective."

Kevin Martin stopped the two people who were about to leave and asked carefully:

"Um, can you take me with you?

I really want to see what the demons inside look like.

Please, I won't make trouble."

The gardener spoke in a sincere tone and looked at the player with pure eyes.

Just like a big man full of curiosity, he couldn't bear to be rejected.

After a moment of silence, Qin Nuo gently uttered two words: "Okay."

"Really!?"

"VIP seats for the Exorcism Ceremony are accompanied by the protection fee of two detectives, a total of 500 shillings.

If you can afford the price, then come along."

"5,500 shillings? I can't make that much money even if I don't eat or drink for a month."

Kevin Martin asked unwillingly: "Then choose to observe closely, can it be cheaper?"

Qin Nuo glanced at him strangely: "There are obviously more than one demon in the abandoned apartment. Do you think you can survive the attack of the demon?

And if something happens to you, who will we pay?"

"Okay."

Footsteps sounded.

Kevin Martin looked at the detective who was walking away, feeling depressed.

He was keen on studying supernatural events and obsessed with rumors of all sizes happening in Rochester.

He even dreamed of becoming a member of the Night Watch or the Knights one day and personally participating in the investigation of demons.

Unfortunately, he was just a lowly gardener, and it was hard enough to survive in this city.

There was no condition to pursue unrealistic dreams.

190 shillings was the biggest bargaining chip Kevin Martin could offer.

For this reason, he could only eat one meal a day for the next two weeks.

"The night watchman needs academic qualifications, and the Knights of the Crusades only selects from clergy.

I am not qualified for either."

Kevin Martin looked forward reluctantly:

"I don't know what it takes to become a detective. If I have to grow as tall as them, then I have no hope."

Just as the gardener sighed, a sentence floated from afar.

"Curiosity kills the cat, and being alive is more important than anything else."

The voice was flat and light, without any emotional fluctuations.

It was Qin Nuo's voice.

Kevin Martin opened his eyes wide and looked at the source.

The backs of the two detectives in the distance had already turned into black dots.

He could hear me talking from such a distance and even pass my words back.

"It seems that I really have no hope of becoming a detective..."

Kevin Martin held his head, deeply shocked.

On the other side.

"Brother Roman, it turns out that you are the radar kid.

You can hear the client's voice from dozens of meters away and pass my words back."

Back at the intersection of Black Gold Street, Qin Nuo was quite curious about the skills that Roman had just displayed.

"Oh, it's just a skill that I learned from the talent tree.

Because it consumes more intelligence and sanity, it is generally not used."

"It's learned from the talent tree? Why haven't I seen similar skills?"

Qin Nuo became more curious.

Regarding the new talent tree system that appeared after level 10, he had no channel to obtain more information.

So he didn't know what the talent trees of other players were like.

"Each player learns a different power system, and the talent tree will also be different.

I learned the Paladin system, so there is a pseudo-detection skill called [Detect Goodness] on the talent tree.

The effect can only be used on creatures judged to be good or lawful, and because the investment points are not many, it is easy to be counter-detected.

Wait, are you trying to get my information?!"

Roman immediately covered his mouth after speaking, and looked at Qin Nuo in feigned anger: "This is inside information that can't be bought with money. Tell me how to solve it."

Yeah?

Did I use an AK to push your head, or did I use a vise to pry your mouth?

You actually want to turn the tables?

Qin Nuo showed disdain on his face, raised his right hand directly, and gave the other party a thumbs-up and a little finger.

"6? "

Roman was slightly surprised, and then realized that this person was unwilling to pay a penny.

Hey, hey, hey, it's inside information after all, you can give a little bit.

Too stingy.

Ignoring his teammates' faces of pain, Qin Nuo looked at the house numbers around.

Confirmed the direction, and walked straight in a certain direction.

He walked quickly, as if he said, "I'm busy, I'll go first."

"Wait a minute, at least give me a few shillings. "

Roman hurriedly followed, not giving up.

But judging from Qin Nuo's expression of pretending not to know him, there was little hope.

...

Half an hour later, No. 177 Black Gold Street - abandoned apartment building.

Two players stood on the side of the road, not rushing in.

Looking up slightly,

This four-story apartment building was nearly half collapsed, and the remaining half of the exterior wall was blackened and covered with vines.

The desolate scene and the lonely and empty streets around it made it look gloomy and terrifying.

The remaining glass door It had already been broken, and the debris was scattered all over the floor.

Through the door frame, you can see that the room inside is in a mess.

Debris, rags, and parts of tables and chairs are piled up in a mixed manner. Most of the remaining ceilings have fallen off, and a few pieces are hanging in the air by silk threads.

The broken wallpaper shows a blood-like trace.

It is not difficult to imagine that this once noisy apartment must have been looted by the brave again after the fire.

At least, Qin Nuo did not find any metal objects, even a small piece of steel pipe.

"Go in. "

After taking a rough look at the dark and gloomy building, Qin Nuo called his teammates to enter together.

Crack, crack.

The two players stepped on broken glass from time to time, and walked into the semi-ruined abandoned apartment.

Due to the lack of sunlight, the corridor inside the apartment was dark and deep even in the daytime.

There were overturned and burned furniture and construction waste everywhere.

"The fire should have started from the second and third floors, especially the third floor.

At that time, everyone was crowded in the stairwell, blocked by the narrow exit and unable to escape.

There was a big fire behind and a wall of people in front. It was really desperate. "

Qin Nuo took out the kerosene lamp he had prepared in advance, lit it and observed the traces of the fire.

"The client said that traces of human figures were found on the second and third floors. Does that mean that the demons are hiding on these two floors?"

Roman took out the flail and couldn't help but be alert.
