Chapter 31: Stranger

‘Please fill your pocket with a dollar ’s banknotes, because every night is a gentleman ’s night. ∏∈eight∏∈one∏∈Chinese∏∈text, www.8.1zw.COM '-[ bar] notice.
Zac and Benjamin pushed the door open, and there is still some distance from ‘Gentleman ’s Night’, so apart from the steel pipes standing on the round table, there is no difference between bars and ordinary bars.
Zac had seen James sitting in the corner, and Benjamin went straight behind the bar and borrowed the phone. Because I do n’t know how long James will occupy the two of them, I need to inform Alice of Mrs. Quinn ’s request first so that I can prepare in advance.
"Isn't it too early to come here?" Zac chuckled and sat next to James.
James gave Zac a sigh, and lost a flip open magazine: "I'm not in a mood to joke with you!"
Zac picked up the magazine, and the flipped side read, ‘Phone communication with the underworld! Remember the ins and outs of Barton Telecom ’s communication blocking event! ’Zac watched it again, mysterious busy tone, the internal staff was missing strangely, the howling in the day, the memory loss of the staff stuffed in the trash can ...
The author of the article has used rich imagination to sketch a story of a person who can talk to the underworld through the phone. Of course, the final ending is this person. After being innocent colleagues, he was picked up by the messenger of the underworld ... most There is also a sentence at the end, 'Adapted from real events'.
"Wow. It's a fascinating story." Zach closed the magazine and looked at the rough cover: "" Urban Legends-Barton Weekly "? I should subscribe, and playing time is a good choice."
James frowned, "This is not a trifle! You and Benjamin should be more careful!"
"Oh! Are you worried about us? I'm very touched."
"Please be careful." James said coldly: "It's only been a few days, and someone has already felt the signs of Benjamin's action."
James refers to the person who woke up in the trash can of the telecommunications building, and Benjamin's howl while solving the shape changer, which also appeared on the entertainment version of the Barton Daily the next day. In this regard, Benjamin ’s explanation was that the transfiguration was talking on the phone at the time. This was the simplest method of deterrence, so that those restless aliens realized that Patton had a place. Bayi Middle School ■ 文 ★ ● ■ Net. ww.81zw.cc?
"Okay, I will remind him. Next time, let him be quiet, and then leave it alive." Zac said disapprovingly.
"You know I don't mean that!" James was angry!
"Of course I know." Zack nodded slightly seriously, and James was really difficult to please. "How is Curson? And David's friend, Fitz?"
"I'm still investigating David's case." James replied somewhat unhappy, because obviously, he had time to come out alone, and on behalf of Detective Coulson did not want to cooperate with this 'unreliable' partner! "But the case has now been officially filed and it is a" missing case. "Fitz also resumed work today, but was asked to keep David's situation completely confidential." James shook his head helplessly.
After Benjamin shot the real David ’s death case, he completely lost his clue and entered the same way as the previous case of the disappearance of prostitutes and women. However, there has been no special news in the newspapers these days. Obviously, the real case has been completely covered up by Cologne in consideration of ‘not causing panic’. Coulson ’s secret investigation may be abandoned shortly.
For a wolf and a ghost in the Grand House, this is the best result. "So, why are we here, do you have anything?"
"Yes." James began to pull documents from behind: "I got the list of in and out of Barton through normal channels during this time, and after comparing with the long list of in and out of Barton, many now come to Barton for the first time. ' people'."
"Then I got the list of those who had left Barton City in the past few days." James said with a sneer. "Most people who come to Barton for the first time have left."
This shows that Benjamin's approach has worked and is good news.
"But some people stay here." James handed Zac a list.
Zac took it: "Give me a pen."
James passed a pen, watched Zac take it, and began to scratch the list. Eight ▲ one ★ middle? ■ Wenwen. ww.8.11zw.com?
"Solved, solved, solved ..."
Zac painted on the list, and soon, most of the names were crossed out! Obviously, in these three days, a wolf and a ghost are not idle!
The action of the aliens has a strong regularity. Just like the test conducted by the shape-changers who first came to Barton City, they mastered the rules. It is not difficult to find these guys. It ’s a paradise, a little vigilant guy!
James watched Zac cross out one name after another, his mood was not happy! It can be said that it is very poor!
This is not disappointment after the hard work of the data proved to be worthless, but ...
We already know that James is a guy with a sense of justice, and he has a different kind of attachment to the police profession! At least Louise's affection for him disappeared this way.
So when he saw Zach crossed out a name and said ‘solved’ in his mouth, he could easily think of what this represented. As a detective of the Patton Police homicide group, he did not receive any news! This made him realize how dangerous this guy is!
They can silently wipe out the ‘people’ that once appeared in the city of Barton, then remove the quotation marks on both sides of the people, I believe it is not difficult for them!
James felt a strong sense of crisis now.
Finally, there were only a few names left on the list, and Zac put down the pen: "Okay, now, what name are we here for?"
James looked somberly at one of them-Madison Cook.
"He came to Barton three days ago and worked as a temporary worker there, from six to two in the morning."
Zac looked at the time on his wrist, and after six o'clock, he looked at the bartenders who were chatting in the far bar: "Which one is it?"
James shook his head and turned Zac's head to the other side. Behind the bar, Benjamin was coming to the side after the phone call, "That."
Behind Benjamin's generous body, a man in a hood held a basket of clean dishes and cups and waited until Benjamin walked out of the aisle before proceeding to the back of the bar.
A man named Madison placed a large basket of cups and pans on the ground, squatted halfway down, and placed the utensils in the basket into the cabinet behind the bar. Several bartenders whispered what they were talking about, and from some of their joking expressions, they could see that they were talking about Madison who was working on the sidelines.
Madison's movements were quick, the utensils were set, the empty basket was carried, and he turned to prepare to go back. It seems to be that everything is cleaned up before seven o'clock to greet 'Gentleman's Night'.
"Madison, hey! Madison! I'm calling you! Mai! Dee! Sen!"
Madison turned his head in surprise, looking at the people who called him. Please forgive Maddison, he didn't get the name for even a week, and he's not quite fit to be called that way.
"Sorry, I was just distracted." Madison explained to these guys who were apparently bullying the new man, "Is there anything wrong with me?"
"Haha! Madison! You are so funny!" A guy leaned against the bar and drew out three clean glasses and poured a full beer: "Go to the guests on the table over there and say you asked!"
Madison froze for a moment, looking back at the three people sitting in the corner. One of the tall guys had just made a phone call in the back: "But I don't know them, and I didn't want to invite them."
The guys looked at each other and laughed: "Madison, we in Barton are very friendly! You should get used to it! We often invite strangers to drink! Now, do n’t talk nonsense! Go quickly!"
The wine glass was pushed in front of Madison, but the tray on the bar was taken away by several other people. The bullying gesture was already very obvious.
Madison hesitated to look at the three glasses that were almost overflowing. If it spilled, the person who cleaned up was still him, who made him a temporary worker. Madison looked at the three guests in the corner again, and the three men with completely different styles seemed to have noticed it, looking at Madison with ‘curiousness’.
Madison had no expression, silently placed the beer on the palm, carefully held it, and protected it with the other hand. He doesn't think that if he sends them over twice, they will be satisfied.
"Wait!" A guy grabbed Madison's arm, the beer swayed, splashed out of the mug, and soaked Madison's sleeve and front.
The guy who caught him stared at him and said, "You have to pay first! Twelve dol and eight dol tip! Twenty dol in total!"
"Tip?" Madison stared at this nasty guy in surprise: "I asked for it, do I have to pay a tip?"
"Are you kidding? Of course you need it! Do you think the beer will run into the glass on its own ?!" He also stared at Madison with surprise. The people around covered their lips and seemed to be laughing.
"I have no money." Madison replied.
"Don't me! I saw the boss paying you cash in cash yesterday! You don't even have to pay taxes! You stranger is stealing money from our Patton citizens!" His face changed: "Don't ink! Give me the money! Otherwise, you can get out and find a new job now! "
Snapped!
Madison launched the beer and put it on the table! Splashing liquor spilled on the bar, splashing a few guys together!
"I quit!"
Madison pulled off the badge attached to his chest, the hood on his head, threw it on the bar, and turned to walk behind the bar. A moment later, he reappeared, with a brown hat, a stale coat, and a small handbag, pushed the door of [ bar] and disappeared. Leave a few dumbfounded bartenders, and an angry boss rushing out from behind the bar!
"I think we will say goodbye to today's" Gentleman's Night. "" Zach stood up and seemed to be leaving. His voice was not too big, just to let the bar owner hear. So the boss was even more angry, the ‘poor’ bartenders lost half a month ’s wages ...
"You guys," James said to Zac and Benjamin after pushing the bar's door open. "There are still a few names. I'm going to investigate."
The three nodded each other and separated in two directions.
