coincidence?
John frowned, he didn't believe in coincidence.
Brian didn't believe it either.
And McCall?
I don't believe it either.
The three men looked at Jason again after crossing their eyes.
And Jason got up and went to the study and bedroom, took out the letter written by the three of them, put it on the small round coffee table, and pushed his fingers to the position near the three.
"Are you sure, did you write this?"
Jason asked.
John, Bryan, and McCall picked up the letter and began to check and read it.
The movements vary according to habit, but everyone takes due care and caution.
"Ok."
"no problem."
"I wrote it."
In the end, the three nodded together, almost speaking in unison.
Then, all three were stunned.
This time, the three of them didn't need Jason to say anything.
Did all three of them write to Jason at the same time?
wrong!
To be precise, all three of them ‘attention’ to Jason.
"You also saw the notice in the notice column?"
Brian looked at John and McCall.
"Ok."
John nodded.
McCall took out his portable notebook and turned it over and placed it in the center of the coffee table.
In the flipped notepad, there is a photo, the content of the photo is a notice-
Everyone:
I need some strange stories to inspire.
Do you have any?
If yes, please tell me.
I am in Room 313 of Apartment 3A.
Phone: 0054444944
Jason

...
The angle of the photo shooting is quite good, and the picture is very clear.
Jason looked at the photo closely.
There is no such photo in his memory.
However, this photo is the beginning of everything.
Jason's eyes turned to John and Brian, and the two had positive expressions. They were telling Jason that they saw this notice.
"Then you can tell me, why did you decide to write to me when you saw this notice?"
Jason continued to ask.
His eyes swept over three men.
There is no doubt that the three men in front of me are not ordinary people.
The appearance of one at random can cause a storm of blood and blood.
What if the three get together?
As long as there is sufficient preparation, it is not too difficult to destroy a city.
But because of this, Jason became more and more curious.
Why is this mediocre announcement attracting three people?
"My wife just passed away and I hope to find someone to talk about."
"It just so happened that Jason, you still rented in my apartment."
"I surveyed you, a writer who keeps his promise, and is a good fit to be a confidant."
John spoke first.
The previous events are enough to give him a deep understanding of Jason and make him willing to believe in Jason.
What's more, he owes Jason a favor.
"I was anxious and irritable because of Kami's affairs."
"So, I also hope to find someone to talk to."
"And when I saw this notice, I subconsciously produced the idea of wanting to talk to you."
Brian then said.
Like John, Brian is willing to believe in Jason.
You know, Jason saved his daughter.
McCall is different from John and Bryan.
Although he and Jason are only one side of the relationship, but his inner sense of justice makes McCall outspoken.
"I don't want Jason to have something wrong with you."
"I have seen Cross Street Tracker. You are a good writer. Although the writing is not first-rate, the story content is also lacking, and the logic is not smooth, but you really work hard."
McCall said, showing a cheering smile to Jason.
Jason smiled.
Apart from smiling, he really didn't know what expression to show.
Could it be explained that it was not written by the current ‘I’ but by the previous ‘I’? Moreover, the current "I" is not as good as the previous "I"?
Without saying such an explanation, whether the three people in front of me would believe that Jason couldn't say it alone.
Absolutely not because he has to admit that he is not as embarrassing as he was before!
Just a little embarrassed.
"Macal, I really thank you."
Jason said solemnly.
"You're welcome."
McCall responded.
Then Jason looked at John.
"You surveyed me before and came to the opinion that I kept my promise ... Is such a survey difficult?"
Jason asked.
"Not difficult."
"Actually, there are rumors in your circle of book friends. You have been in contact with some special people before you can write such a story, but then you seem to be arrogant and want to write in the true sense Your own story, but unfortunately, your talents and abilities are not enough for you to write such stories, so you are silent. "
John said truthfully.
"Is that right?"
Jason whispered to himself, and then paused, suddenly asked: "When did you read my book? Before you saw the notice, or after the notice?"
"Before the notice."
John was the first to answer.
"Well, I was before."
Brian nodded.
"same."
"I saw it more than a year ago, when I just 'retired' and became a private investigator. Naturally, I was interested in similar things, and yours happened to be hot at the time. I just bought one in the bookstore. "
McCall's answer is more specific. He gave a positive answer and described it immediately.
"My hot push?"
Jason frowned.
Hot push is not strange. What is strange is that he has only written a book that is still a best-selling book in this decade. The writers who have been questioned in recent years have started to be hot pushed.
Businessmen chasing profits!
This is nature!
Simply put, it's not too early to be unprofitable.
What benefit does selling a writer's book have to them?
unless……
Someone gave them benefits.
Thinking of this, Jason stood up and walked to the phone.
Although his phone is a landline, it has the function of saving the incoming call. Soon, he found the editor's phone record, did not pick up the microphone, drove the speakerphone, and called back.
Toot, toot.
After just two clicks, the editor answered the phone.
"Jason, have you written?"
"If it's written, just fax it."
"The post office is too slow."
"It's about the end of the month, you promised me, don't forget."
As soon as the phone was connected, the editor said like a bombshell.
"Not yet, I ..."
"You don't want to ask for leave?"
"Tell you, impossible!"
"Your holiday has run out!"
"No excuses!"
"Give me a honest manuscript!"
In the last sentence, the editor almost shouted, and the hands-free phone was on, and they were all buzzed.
John, Brian, and McCall's eyes were intertwined, and there was a trace of interest in their eyes.
The three men were the first to see the editor's reminder.
Kemi and Terry, who had been staying in the study and bedroom, also probed their brains.
Jason was concerned by many eyes, but was at ease.
He, Jason, a foodie ... part-time writer.
Foodies are ahead.
The writer is behind.
Although a real work is not written, he eats too much!
Moreover, with the identity of a writer, can it be normal to collect style?
Isn't it normal to eat, drink, and drink when the wind is collecting?
"My inspiration is exhausted."
"It needs chi (he)."
"And, I haven't been sleeping well recently."
Jason replied like this.
"Not allowed!"
"You have to remember that you are a heartless code word machine!"
"No need to collect style, just code words!"
"As for sleeping?"
"remember!"
"Dead people need to sleep!"
"As long as you don't sleep, you will write 24 hours a day!"
The editor continued to roar.
"Oh."
"Why did Cherry City push my book more than a year ago?"
Jason was casual.
"Cherry City is pushing your book?"
"Jason, are you really awake?"
"Don't fantasize about these useless things, hurry up and write the manuscript is king!"
"Remember the end of the month!"
"I have to urge more guys now!"
The editor hung up after speaking.
The hands-free lamp also disappeared.
Jason turned to look at John, Brian and McCall.
The three men's faces at this time were all a little serious.
Didn't contact the press editor's hot push?
That could only be the private act of Cherry City.
And such behavior?
Came to them!
The three men almost instinctively confirmed this.
From the time Jason came to Cherry City to the appearance of the "imitation criminal", it was only part of the other party's plan, in order to lead them out!
As for why this is done?
They already had a guess in their hearts.
McCall straightened up and immediately spoke.
But at this time, Brian waved his hand to stop.
Brian stood up and walked towards the door of the bedroom and study.
"Kemi, you and Terry go back to the room."
Brian said, blocking Kemi's curious eyes.
If it was before, Kemi would definitely rebel against his father's tyranny, but after the previous kidnapping, Kemi was much more sensible, nodded, and pulled Terry back to the room, and, very well The door was closed.
Of course, behind the door, Kemi put his ear directly on the door.
She is curious.
Tally was equally curious.
Such a move did not hide Brian, he gestured a low voice to the remaining three men.
"You are a good father."
When Brian sat down again, McCall sighed.
"Just make up."
Brian sighed.
Then his voice became deep.
"You know, I used to be too focused on my profession and ignored my family."
"When I retire, I only have to make up."
"So, I don't allow anyone to hurt my family!"
Such words more or less resonated with John and McCall.
"Ok."
"Now a guy is designing us."
"Moreover, it has harmed our family or the most important things."
"More importantly, I can be sure that he wants more than that."
McCall nodded,
John clenched his fists.
He thought of Daisy.
Bryan's daughter was rescued, but what about his Daisy?
His Daisy is dead!
He vowed to avenge Daisy.
Now that a new goal has emerged ... kill the other party!
The slightest killing intention began to appear on John's body, and the other three men in the room immediately felt the killing intention.
"Calm down, John."
"That guy won't run far."
McCall comforted John.
Brian remained silent.
His daughter was rescued, but John's Daisy was not rescued.
At this time, he did not speak properly.
John breathed slightly.
Brian and McCall were slightly relieved. At this time, they were most worried about John's indifference.
After all, the goal is too clear.
The reasons for their appearance are different, but in the final analysis, they still only do one thing: get rid of Emmod.
Aimod has many enemies.
More people want to let Emmod die.
but!
The guy who was able to start layout more than a year ago and silently lured Jason here is definitely not simple.
Not only is patience, but the ability must also be quite outstanding.
Moreover, it will benefit from the death of Emmod.
Those with vested interests, even if they are not murderers, are also related to the murderers!
All three have such a simple concept in their hearts.
And it happens that there is such a person among Aymod's enemies.
Brian and McCall glanced at each other.
The two spoke the name almost simultaneously-
"Dude!"
Jason frowned.
The time he came here was too short to be in a day.
He didn't know about Cherry City.
"Can you tell me about this Dodd?"
Jason asked.
"of course."
After Brian and McCall looked at each other, the latter said immediately.
"Dord, the speaker of Cherry City, is a real big man and is the real enemy that makes Emmod."
"It's also Amor who hates it."
"Dodd has prevented Emmod from entering Parliament more than once.
"However, you don't expect Dodd to be a good person. He blocks Emmod simply because of political disagreement.
McCall said, and stood up.
Staying here is also speculation.
Now that the goal of "Dodd" appeared, he wanted to try his luck.
John and Brian also stood up.
They think the same.
"and many more."
Just then, Jason, who was silent for a moment, suddenly burst out.
Suddenly, Jason once again attracted the eyes of three men.
"Dodd should be the enemy of Emmod."
"But don't you find it strange?"
"In order to get rid of an Emmod, his layout attracted the three of you. Isn't it too much?
"And ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Emmod and Dodd are confronted, should it be at a disadvantage?"
"Does he really need to arrange such a big situation to get rid of someone who is not as good as him?"
Jason asked in a sofa chair.
John, Brian, and McCall frowned, and the three stopped at the same time.
They did not refute Jason's words.
Because this is the fact.
But this way ...
Who exactly laid out?
Subconsciously, the three looked at Jason sitting there.
Jason said without hesitation—
"We might as well think about it, if the three of you went to investigate Dodd, and then fought again to kill Dodd, then ... who would be the biggest beneficiary of this battle?"
