Classic revival of infinite games

Chapter 46 4.2 Visitor
"Dong dong dong..."

Although they have the same idea, they want to search the first room first if they want to be steady.However, a sudden knock on the door disrupted the rhythm.

The knock on the door didn't knock directly on the door of their office, but came faintly from the next room.

The two opened the door of the office and walked into a narrow corridor.

There were three other doors in this corridor, and it was the door on the left on the same side as their offices that heard rhythmic knocking.

"Open the door?" Lin Xiaomei asked nervously.

"Open the door!"

Since the clue of the famous book is an article in "The Collection of Sherlock Holmes", it is necessary to open the door instead of taking the scary route inside the house.

The door opened into a parlor, windowless, with a door to the street outside.

In the center of the living room is a sofa and a coffee table.

To one side is a newspaper shelf with a series of newspapers on it.Then there is an open kitchenette with a refrigerator, a sink, a stove, and coffee pots and tea canisters on the countertops of the kitchenette.

The door facing the street is being knocked at this moment.

Ye Man pulled the door open.

I saw a beautiful Western European young woman in a windbreaker, a long skirt, a felt hat, leather gloves, and a handbag standing outside the door. She was slender and slender.

A pair of big water-blue eyes seemed to have just cried, and now he was looking around, his face full of helplessness.Under the felt hat, the golden and lustrous curly hair was casually bundled up and draped over the shoulders.In the center of the fair neck at the neckline of the windbreaker, there is a huge ruby ​​necklace, which echoes the ruby ​​on her earlobe.

"Excuse me, are they Ms. Ye and Ms. Lin?" The woman said, her voice was weak and choked with sobs, "Can you help me? My husband has been missing since the day before yesterday."

"Okay, please come in. Please sit down and talk." Ye Man led her in.

The woman came in, sat on the sofa, put down her handbag, took off her felt hat, and took off her leather gloves, sitting in a very ladylike posture.

"My name is Mia von Graus." She said softly, "As I said just now, I came here precisely because of the disappearance of my husband."

Ye Man nodded, motioning for her to continue.

"My husband took a long trip to the next city last week for work. He was supposed to come back the day before yesterday, but he didn't come back until today. I'm still a little worried, so I came to the office to consult you. Listen to people Say, you guys are very good at reasoning..."

"Ms. Grouse, did you call the police?" Ye Man asked directly.

If you are worried, your first reaction should be to call the police, and then it should be the police who come to contact the detective agency instead of her coming directly, I am afraid that there is something hidden about the case.

Sure enough, there was a trace of embarrassment on Mia's face, and she said in a low voice, "In fact, there may be many reasons why he didn't come back. I think calling the police may be a bit of a big deal."

Lin Xiaomei pushed her glasses, picked up the pen and paper on the table, and began to ask and record.

"How long have you been married?"

"We've just been married for a year, and yesterday was our one-year anniversary. It's a pity..."

"Where did your husband travel?"

"I don't know too well. It seems to be the city next door. I don't care much about his work."

"It's so foggy today, and it's possible that you won't be able to come back if you encounter difficulties on the way."

"But he should at least call me... He hasn't heard from him for two days."

Ye Man took the conversation and continued to ask: "So, in the next few days, he will call you?"

Mia nodded hastily: "He did call every day in the past few days, this is his habit."

"Do you suspect... why did he fail to come back as scheduled?"

"How do I know this..." Mia tremblingly said, "I came here because you can reason... If I knew, I wouldn't have come..."

"No, you have doubts." Ye Man looked at her finger, "Why don't you wear a ring?"

"Ah, oh...I...forgot to wear it..." Mia's voice became softer.

Ye Man shook his head: "You pay great attention to wearing and matching jewelry. I think you may not forget to wear it, but you don't want to wear it."

Mia bit her lower lip, remained silent for a long time, and finally said: "Ms. Ye, you are right, I have doubts... I suspect there is someone outside."
