Autumn in the north is coming much earlier. So when September comes, the weather starts to get colder.

For the northerners, it is the golden autumn of September.

Originally, Celtic City was rich in geothermal resources and was considered a famous warm climate in the North. The entire basin was more than the autumn and winter in other places, about half a month to one month in the evening.

But this year's autumn in the North came earlier than before...

The tall trees on both sides of the road have already started to have yellow leaves.

The pedestrians began to wear long clothes and trousers, preparing to welcome the cold winter in the north.

In the tavern, you can hear many worried discussions from customers: it is so cold this year, and it is probably a crazier autumn wind that will be brought to the grazing orcs. Even large wolves in the north will attack grazing herds due to food problems.

For the people of the North, every winter is a war that must be prepared for the battle!

However, Charlotte and the others didn't feel too much about this.

Their understanding of the North is still in books, and they cannot imagine the scene where the white-haired wind whistles for days and heavy snow bury the house...

Charlotte was carrying Alice, Little Golden Li and Kaspersky on the mission.

Recently, the security offices in the city have become very busy and the police force is extremely scarce. Therefore, many of the work that should be done by the security team have been put on the mission release board of the Adventurers Guild. The bonus is allocated by the City Hall...

The task that Xiao Jinli took on is a simple bronze mission to investigate the missing old John family.

Recently, there has been no peace in Celtic City, and many similar incidents have occurred.

Charlotte and a few people found the house where the mission was located. This was a single-family wooden house that looked a little old and also had a small yard.

Northerners like to trim gardens. If their yard is very beautiful, the male owner will be very proud.

But the yard is not very good now, and there are many dead branches and leaves falling on the small road paved with bluestone. Those who don’t know think the male owner is a lazy man.

Instead of taking people directly into the yard, Charlotte came to a family not far away, which was the missing neighbor of the old John family.

"We are adventurers who are under investigation..." Charlotte unfolded the parchment and gave the middle-aged man a look.

In fact, the man was illiterate, but he knew the seal of the Adventurers Guild.

"So, can you tell me how you discovered that the old Johns family was missing?" Charlotte asked.

The middle-aged man is thick and his stubble is also very thick. He is a typical northern man. He is not at all weak when facing Charlotte, but he has a strong worry in his eyes.

He said: "Old John will never let his yard be so embarrassed! And I haven't seen him in a nearby tavern for three days. This is not normal... Later, I went to their house to check it out. The door was locked and there seemed to be traces of fighting in the room. I hurried to the public security office to report the case! God Earth God blessed, I hope they are fine..."

Charlotte nodded. He knew that the man was telling the truth. But sometimes, the truth may not be the truth.

"So, no one in the Old John's family has ever been?" Charlotte asked again.

The man replied: "Yes. The old neighbors around us all knew something was wrong, and no one dared to go in."

This is a mature approach, and it is the experience gained by many rash ghosts with their lives: those dangers that can cause death are not something ordinary people can deal with!

Charlotte lit a thin cigar, which was extremely fragrant, causing the man to twitch his nose in a vague way.

There are no men in northern China who don’t like to smoke!

So Charlotte handed over one.

"Oh my god! Thank you friend! The best Amway black cigar, thirty-five silver deer! But it's great value... Hiss~huh!" After igniting, he took a deep breath, which was so comfortable that he even relieved his worries.

Charlotte asked a lot about the Old John family, including family members, social relations, etc.

Old John's family of five, two sons and one daughter. The eldest son is 18 years old and joins the army in the capital army. The remaining two children are underage and live with their parents.

That is to say, four people who disappeared together should be missing.

Although Old John's mouth is a bit toxic, he is a good person, so he has many friends. Although there are a few who are not dealing with, it is definitely not a deep hatred.

After a while, Xiao Jinli also came back and told Charlotte about the information he had investigated. The information on both sides was basically consistent.

Just now, Charlotte asked Xiao Jinli to take a small bag of tobacco leaves to find out about the news.

This kid is a little introverted and can only be relaxed in front of his acquaintances. Charlotte wants to exercise him.

After a series of operations, Charlotte suppressed both Jinli and Kaspersky! It turns out that the mission can still be done like this? Why do you feel that Charlotte Boss/Uncle is more professional than the investigator of the security team?

After the information was confirmed, Charlotte led the team and entered the courtyard directly.

Charlotte opened up the witch hunter's concentration senses, and there was no clue in the whole yard. The footprints on the bluestone slab matched the man next door.

The front door was locked from the inside, and Charlotte pushed it, very firm.

Civilians cannot afford glass, so the windows are covered by wooden boards. Charlotte looks in through the gap...

The room was dim and you could see the tables, chairs and basins falling all over the ground, and there were not much blood on the ground.

It seemed that there had been a brief fierce fight, and then the family was subdued or killed.

Charlotte winked at Alice, Alice nodded, her shadow crawled into the crack of the door and opened the thick door bolt.

Charlotte looked at it and found that the door bolt was a solid wood door bolt that was thicker than bricks, leaving no trace on it.

The same goes for windows, all of which are inserted from inside!

Charlotte: Is it a murder case in the secret room? That’s great! Please invite Conan, Kanedaichi, Sherlock Holmes, Di Renjie and the young Bao Qingtian to the upper body!

Then Alice pulled Charlotte and pointed at the traces on the ground.

When Charlotte saw that there were obvious traces of dragging on the ground and some blood stains.

I followed him to the kitchen and saw that Made! It was not a murder case in the secret room!

There is a vegetable cellar in the corner of the kitchen, which is now wide open. The drag marks point there.

In the north, many people have vegetable cellars at home.

Because the winter in the north is very cold, there are no fresh vegetables to eat throughout the winter.

In order to prevent the stored vegetables from being frozen, dig 2-3m deep basement in the house to store vegetables. This kind of vegetable cellar does not require heating and can maintain a lukewarm and hot temperature.

Sometimes, in order to prevent the temperature from being too low, a few tanks of water are usually placed in the vegetable cellar, and the heat released by the freezing of the water is used to maintain the temperature of the vegetable cellar so that it is neither high nor low.

In order to store winter vegetables, basically every family in the northern region has a vegetable cellar. Generally, the vegetables stored are potatoes, radishes, carrots, etc. that are often eaten in winter, and are suitable for preservation. Of course, you can also put the jar of pickled cucumbers in the vegetable cellar!

The dishes in the vegetable cellar need to be placed in a certain way, and they need to be observed from time to time...

Charlotte casually called out a small fireball to illuminate the depths of the vegetable cellar. There were no vegetables for this winter in the vegetable cellar, and there were no corpses or wreckage. Instead, there were several pickled jars.

In one corner of this cafeteria cellar, there is a collapsed earth hole with a diameter of nearly one meter!
