Chapter 69

In the early morning, a sudden explosion at Oken Manor made the city of Aitlan, which had just calmed down, noisy again. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Just ten minutes later, several police cars sped in.

More than a dozen police officers, under the leadership of the Director Gray, appeared in the Okun Manor with extraordinary courtesy.

Of course, the Lord of the Directors was very interested in Ann. Rutteridge. Ou Ken's wagging tail and begging for mercy are not about Qin Ran's business.

Qin Ran, who had been reading all night again, felt the faint pain of swelling in his temples again.

Qin Ran, who knew that it would be useless to continue in such a state, chose a proper rest.

His index fingers rubbed his temples lightly, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

Breathe smoothly, as if you are asleep.

However, when a clear sound of footsteps sounded, Qin Ran immediately opened his eyes.

Before Tracy knocked on the door, Qin Ran took the lead in opening the door.

"What's wrong?"

Qin Ran asked directly.

He had already instructed him not to bother him if there was nothing important, including three meals, and he would go to the kitchen to solve it by himself.

So, Ann. Rutteridge. Something must have happened when Oken's female secretary appeared here.

Thinking of the explosion that had occurred in the Ouken Manor before, Qin Ran frowned.

"Meyer needs help?"

Qin Ran asked.

As the contact time became longer, Qin Ran had gradually learned about An. Rutteridge. The relationship between Okun and that Meyer.

As he suspected, it was a partnership similar to his.

Or, more accurately, conventions.

Unlike him, Meyer and Ann. Rutteridge. Okun's agreement obviously has local limitations.

Meyer will only deal with what happens inside Oken Manor.

Once you leave Okun Manor, the other party will never interfere.

Therefore, when they first met Meyer, they did not pursue him who left Oken Manor in a hurry.

And the explosion that just happened was naturally the category of Meyer's disposal.

Moreover, Qin Ran did not think that Meyer would be unable to deal with this emergency.

What waves can the last wail of a group of defeated dogs withstand?

Looking at the curiosity on Qin Ran's face, the female secretary immediately shook her head.

"Your Excellency Meyer doesn't need help, it's the boss who asked you to come over...... Something about Sheriff Teresa. ”

For Meyer, the female secretary is a heartfelt respect.

Similarly, for Qin Ran, the female secretary did not slack off.

After a slight owe, he reported it truthfully.

"Teresa?"

Qin Ran subconsciously thought of the alarm sound that should not have appeared last night.

Then, he nodded to the female secretary.

Teressa, who can already be called an acquaintance, if she can help easily, Qin Ran naturally doesn't mind helping the other party.

Following behind the female secretary, Qin Ran came to the restaurant familiarly.

Sunlight shines through floor-to-ceiling windows, which are more than 15 meters long and more than 4 meters high, shining on the white tablecloths, and sumptuous food fills the entire table, giving it an alluring glow in the sunlight.

Overnight, he became the most powerful Ann in Aitland City. Rutteridge. Sitting in a high-backed chair, Okun didn't seem interested in the hearty food, listening intently to the report of Director Gray.

When Qin Ran walked into the restaurant, the director immediately stopped talking.

Quiet. Rutteridge. Ou Ken turned slightly in the seat, facing Qin Ran, and asked with a smile.

"What do you need for breakfast?"

Quiet. Rutteridge. There was not the slightest strangeness in the look on Okun's face.

But Qin Ran could see that the lady in front of him was getting angry.

Otherwise, with the other party's character, it would have been posted at this time.

Qin Ran's gaze looked at Director Gray on the side.

The face is bruised and swollen, and the bridge of the nose is bandaged, plus the remnants of the blood scab, forming an irregular shoe print.

For this shoe print, Qin Ran is really familiar with it.

Teresa!

Qin Ran, who had acted at the same time as the female sheriff, was extremely sure where the shoe prints on the director's face came from.

"As hot temper as ever!"

Qin Ran commented from the bottom of his heart.

Then he looked at Ann. Rutteridge. Okan.

Quiet. Rutteridge. Okun's gaze didn't dodge, he was still smiling, as if waiting for his answer.

This made Qin Ran sigh from the bottom of his heart.

Although Qin Ran was sure that when the female sheriff was doing it, he figured out what the consequences would be, but the other party definitely didn't expect that doing so would become an An. Rutteridge. One of the ways Okun tempted him.

Quiet. Rutteridge. Okun is a cautious, suspicious, and intelligent woman.

Qin Ran never denied this.

It's as if he never thought he had done a good job last night to hide it from everyone.

Ann who planned the whole process. Rutteridge. Ou Ken found some clues, which were also expected by Qin Ran.

And Qin Ran naturally had the rhetoric to deal with it.

This is true regardless of whether or not there is an incident in which Teresa suddenly intervenes with a large number of police.

However, after his gaze swept over the dining table, Qin Ran gave up his original rhetoric.

He found something even more convincing.

"Is this your favorite wine?"

Qin Ran walked slowly to An. Rutteridge. In front of Ouken, he raised his hand and picked up the goblet placed in front of the other party.

In the glass, the sweet rotten taste of white wine is fragrant.

Concealing a hint of something strange in it.

Ordinary people will never notice anything unusual, but they have a perception of S+ and have a master-level [Medicine. For Qin Ran, who is knowledgeable about medicines, it is obvious.

"That's right!"

Quiet. Rutteridge. Ou Ken replied very dryly, but the expression on his face changed slightly.

Smart enough Ann. Rutteridge. Ou Ken guessed something from Qin Ran's actions and behavior.

It's just that she didn't panic.

Even, in her mind, she had quickly reorganized the process of why this glass of wine appeared in front of her.

Naturally, several suspects also appeared in mind.

And her faint dissatisfaction with Qin Ran and some temptations were also left behind.

Quiet. Rutteridge. Ou Ken knew very well what kind of attitude he should use in the face of Qin Ran, who had saved him again.

"It seems that after having a fixed habit, it will always give others a chance to take advantage of it!"

Quiet. Rutteridge. Okun sighed and stood up from his seat.

She seemed to be a flower swaying in the wind, and her eyes when she looked at Qin Ran were even more affectionate.

"But I'm used to being by your side!"

"What are you going to do with me?"

"I smell death, but moths to the fire......"

Between the words, Ann. Rutteridge. Ou Ken raised his hand again and walked towards Qin Ran.

Just like the previous times.

Qin Ran dodged again without a trace.

"With such acting time, you should track down those guys who are still hiding, and remind you that Meyer was lured away, not by accident of the other party's speculation."

Qin Ran looked at An with a sense of resentment on his face. Rutteridge. Okun said slowly.

Then, he handed the goblet in his hand to the other party.

But in this process, a flash of light bloomed on the palm of Qin Ran's hand holding the wine glass.

It's like the sun, but it's brighter.

A hint of black, visible to the naked eye, quickly appeared in the light.

Quiet. Rutteridge. Okun's eyes widened unconsciously.

His Excellency the Director, who had witnessed all this, was even more dumbfounded.

"This—This is ......"

Quiet. Rutteridge. Okan

"[Detecting toxins], a common method used by the church's 'sacrifices' and 'knights', is very useful for you to test what kind of poison it is."

Qin Ran smiled and put the wine glass in the other party's hand, then turned around and walked out.

The sunlight shining through the floor-to-ceiling windows shone on him, as if he was covered with a layer of brilliance.

That gradually faded away, but the straight figure, quickly with Ann. Rutteridge. Some of the characters in Okun's mind from the epic biography are constantly overlapping.

"Horseman, knight?!"

She exhaled unconsciously.
