Chapter 57 Timetable

Fall in love with you and Kanshu.com, the number of people who survived this incident was 1 person

"Winslow?"

Chen Xuan, who was searching for clues, approached Xiao Han at this time, looked at the name he circled with the red pen he found in Gerald's home, and said to himself.

From these clippings, it is enough to show that this guy named Patrick Winslow is a celebrity and often makes headlines.

If it weren't for a celebrity, how could these newspapers often write the name of this person?

While the two were thinking about whether to ask the female landlord about Winslow, Lemon, who had cleaned the room, whistled to the two of them. After seeing the name, he immediately exclaimed, which scared them.

"I know this person."

Lemon tells the story of this person in a strange and uncomfortable English.

"This man is a very controversial occult artist in the upper class. His works are often accused by authoritative figures in the art world of being a blasphemy of the gods and a corruption of the audience's spirit and morality. Therefore, tentacles and other curiosity elements often appear in his works, so most critics do not like his works and think that his works are disgusting and despicable."

"However, the curiosity of these works is favored by some art fanatics and can be sold at a high price on the exchange, so art merchants like his works very much."

After hearing Lemon's description, Chen Xuan suddenly realized it.

"I understand, this guy is the book painter who paints tentacles piay."

"But Lemon, how do you know this?" Xiao Han discovered the blind spot.

I thought Lemon would answer his question well, but the development of the situation was beyond their expectations.

On the contrary, Lemon and Chen Xuan looked at Xiao Han with strange eyes.

"Doesn't there be a case background that is automatically loaded in your mind? I think you should know this feeling. Everyone will experience an import case after entering this space. At that time, there will be a function of automatically loading the background. Not only that time, but even every time you are entrusted, this situation will occur. Why don't you?"

"You have memories of loading backgrounds, too?"

Xiao Han was a little surprised when he saw Chen Xuan who was also suspicious.

Just now, I wanted to ask the female landlord like me, why is it on the same front as Lemon now?

"Yes, but this memory seems to have been loaded just now. I thought you were just like me, and you just loaded just now."

Why does this happen?

Xiao Han didn't know it, but he couldn't figure it out.

After all, Chen Xuan is a veteran of livening the atmosphere. Seeing that the atmosphere gradually became stiff, he suggested not paying attention to these for the time being. Perhaps it was a bug in the official system running the entire space. After using this reason to dispel Lemon's suspicion, he continued to search in the file bag.

In addition to clipping newspapers, Chen Xuan also found documents containing business cards and notes in it.

The business card says-

【Alan Jones, Address: Arts United Agency, Arcadia Mansion, Bond Street, London.】

This document introduces the cooperative relationship between Jones and Winslow. It is said that Winslow rarely contacts the outside world, so Jones acts as his agent, but this relationship is not made public to the public.

"So that's it. It seems that Mr. Winslow is Jason's real employer, that is, the recruitment notice he initiated." Chen Xuan nodded thoughtfully.

And the note says-

[Patrick Winslow, Brent Mansion, Hampstesses, London.]

After reading all the documents, business cards and notes, Chen Xuan put them all into the document bag and placed them on the cabinet at the door, preparing to take them away one by one.

"It seems that this detective has gone to investigate Winslow." Xiao Han continued to portray these clues in his mind.

"It looks like it should be."

Chen Xuan nodded, and he looked around Gerald's room and found that there was another bedroom besides the living room.

Like the living room, the bedroom is also very simple and simple, with only a bed, a wardrobe, and a bedside table.

But on the wall of the bedroom, there was a map of the British Isle and a local train schedule on the bedside table.

The book is spread out, and the current page is the train schedule from London to Ipswich and Norwich.

In addition to these, Xiao Han noticed that his beds were neatly folded, and there were no toiletries, nor any daily utensils. There were almost no clothes in the wardrobe. The rental house looked like the tenant's room had not been moved to. It seemed that the detective was ready to travel far.

Chen Xuan had already read the train schedule that spread out that page and got some clues he had guessed.

"So if you say so, Gerald's target should be one of Ipswich and Norwich."

"But which one is it?" Lemon came over at this time, "These two places are simply one in the sky and one underground, one in the end of the earth and one in the corner."

"There are no signs on the map, and I don't know where this detective went."

Xiao Han sighed and continued, actually what he feared most now is that this case became a dead case, which was completely out of instinct.

However, after thinking of the female landlord below, some inspiration flashed through his mind.

"Or we go downstairs to chat with the female landlord first. She has information about all residents, so she should naturally know where Mr. Gerald has gone. Otherwise, how did she know that Gerald has gone far away instead of checking out? Normally, tenants will tell the landlord the destination, and we should find some clues from this aspect."

"Agree." Chen Xuan nodded, "If we keep searching in the room and searching the room in a mess, we will definitely be suspicious of the female landlord. The best way now is to start with the person we have recently contacted with Mr. Detective. This is our basic skill as a detective."

Chen Xuan wrapped the file bag into his coat, and then followed Xiao Han and others to leave Gerald's room.

When they walked to the first floor, the three of them saw the landlord's wife lying on the recliner in an extremely comfortable movement, closing her eyes to rest. After hearing the sound of footsteps, the middle-aged woman looked up.

"Why did you scan for so long?"

"Sorry, the glass is a bit broken. I took a little time to apologize to you again, causing trouble for you." Chen Xuan smiled apologetically and changed the subject. "Speaking of this, where are the residents of the house upstairs? If the keys are convenient, we should apologize to him personally."
