Chapter 50 Chapter 4.6
"What?!" Mia almost passed out.

At this time, Sergeant Bob, who was listening, took over the conversation: "The murderer is at Mrs. Grouse's house?"

"More than that, I also had a conversation with her just now." Ye Man said, "She disguised herself as a maid and left some clues. But whether she did it unintentionally or on purpose, I don't know..."

"If it was unintentional, it might be a breakthrough in the case. If it was intentional..." Bob was silent for a while, then said, "We have no choice, I will go with you."

Bob's car.

"How did you know?" Lin Xiaomei couldn't help asking.

"It's just a high probability of judging like this." Ye Man replied, "After receiving the call from the police station, the madam directly told the servant that she was going to the police station. The servant said that he didn't know why, but turned to a stranger, Presumably for Mr. Grouse's sake. Obviously not the work of a well-trained servant."

Bob focused on driving, and couldn't help but respond when he heard this: "Yes, if it is a well-trained servant, it will definitely answer carefully without knowing the identity of the other party. And the new servant will not be assigned to answer the phone Such an important task."

Ye Man smiled and said, "Let's go meet this one for a while, we'll know at a glance."

The three of them drove to the residence of the Grouse family according to the address dictated by Mia.

The black wrought iron gate is ajar, inside is a lawn and a swimming pool, and at the end of the lawn is a three-story building with wide steps in front of the gate, and the gate of the small building is closed.

At this time, Bob recalled that after the beautiful and melancholy lady had asked them, she hurriedly flipped through her bag and said in a panic: "Ah, I didn't bring the key! I'm so sorry, Mr. Police Officer, let the servants open the door."

Bob knocked on the door loudly, but no one responded, and there was a faint scent coming out from the crack of the door.

"This is..." The expressions of the three of them suddenly became serious.

Bob rummaged through the trunk and found a towel and mineral water. After he soaked the towel, Ye Man cut it into three parts with scissors and covered his mouth and nose as a simple "gas mask".

Then Bob kicked the door open.

A gust of fragrant wind blows towards the face, and all three of them took half a step back.

The whole house was filled with a strong aroma, the windows were closed, and there were servants lying on the ground everywhere.

"What happened?" Lin Xiaomei exclaimed in a low voice.

The three of them didn't close the door directly, but rushed in to open the window.

The fresh air outside the window dilutes the aroma, but they still cover their mouths and noses cautiously.

"Is she still there?" Bob covered his mouth with one hand and stroked the gun on his waist with the other.

"She's not here anymore." Ye Man replied, "I'm so stunned by such an uproar, she must have gone away."

"The fact that we discovered her identity was discovered?" Lin Xiaomei wondered.

"She also pretended to be careless." Ye Man replied, "Obviously she didn't leave any clues at the scene, and she is a very careful person. She did this either because she didn't care about us at all, or she might have her purpose .”

At this moment, Bob went to check the necks of those servants, and gave Ye Man a thumbs up—they just fainted, and they were all still alive.

"Is it to divert the tiger away from the mountain?" Lin Xiaomei frowned, "Turn us here... Do you think Mia will be in danger?"

Ye Man thought for a while, and said, "Probably not. She arrived at the police station smoothly. At least on the surface, she will definitely not be in danger."

When Mia was mentioned, Bob suddenly thought of something: "By the way, Mrs. Grouse asked me to help him get the key!"

According to Bob, the key should be on a hook in the hallway.

But now, the hook in the porch is empty.

"I'll call Mia and ask. See if she remembers wrong." Bob scratched his bald head.

He picked up the receiver and called the police.

After a while, he put down the receiver, shook his head and said, "Mrs. Miya said she remembered correctly, so she must have put it there."

"So, the murderer came to steal the key?" Lin Xiaomei analyzed, "Could it be that he wanted to sneak in here again and attack Mia at night? Originally, the murderer pretended to be a servant while the master was away, but we found out in a hurry... And then run away..."

"You are right. We will pay close attention to Mrs. Grouse's safety." Bob said sincerely.

Ye Man didn't answer, Lin Xiaomei's reasoning couldn't match up with that impeccable killer.

But what the murderer wants, Ye Man still has no answer in his heart.

Is it really just the key?
Her eyes fell on the receiver that Bob had just put down, and she couldn't help being a little dazed.

An hour ago, the murderer had used this receiver to talk to Ye Man.

She suddenly saw a piece of paper falling on the carpet under the table where the phone was placed.

He leaned over to pick it up, but found an elegantly packaged invitation card.

The inside of the invitation was very special. It was a gold-plated card with a circus logo embossed on it. The time of the performance was faintly printed in a line of small italic characters below it. There was no writing on the other parts.

In addition to the card, an invitation letter is attached:

"Dear Mr. Grouse,
You and your loved one have been absent from our party several times.

Is there any dissatisfaction?

You can still bring your dependents with you if you wish.

Attached are two invitation cards, I hope you and your lover can visit our circus again.

Guaranteed to present you with a satisfactory performance this time.

Monster Circus Pink Clown」

"The time is 8 o'clock tonight." Ye Man looked at the performance time of the invitation.

"Mrs. Gross will definitely not be able to attend this." Bob pressed his temple with a headache, "She needs to cooperate with the investigation to record a statement and be protected by us. I don't think she is in the mood."

"Then why don't we go for them?" Lin Xiaomei approached Ye Man and whispered.

Ye Man responded with an affirmative look.

"Does Mrs. Gross agree to our visit to her residence?" Ye Man asked.

"I think it is possible." Bob agreed, "She said that she is willing to fully cooperate with the investigation."

By the time Ye Man and his party left, the servants were already showing signs of waking up one after another. The one who woke up first saw the police officer and asked what happened ignorantly.

It doesn't seem to be a problem.

Ye Man and Lin Xiaomei returned to the detective agency to prepare for their upcoming trip to the circus.

When Ye Man went back, he took a special look at it.

The entire detective agency looks simple, but in fact, the doors and windows contain some high-tech equipment beyond the level of this era.

She thought of the unknown "inventor friend".

"What should we do? Are we going to the circus just like this?" Lin Xiaomei glanced at the clothes on her body, "Would you not be allowed to enter if you are dressed so poorly?"

Ye Man smiled and said, "Go to the bedroom and have a look."

She had a hunch that whether it was the bedroom or the trip to the circus later, it would be crucial to the next investigation.

 Sorry, there was no update for the crazy work in the past two days (yes, I am a social animal who also goes to work on weekends all year round). There will be fewer things in the middle of the week, and I will work hard.
