Fali didn't stay at Sienna's house. Instead, she called Sienna, David, and Chris over.
They sat in the living room and ate hot pot. As David ate, he said, "How can I miss something so interesting?"
He was a fan of supernatural events. To him, this was something he couldn't miss.
He'd been in charge of escaping during the two supernatural events.
However, David didn't get tired of it. Sienna said frankly, "I'm here to eat and drink and see if there's anything I can help with."
Chen Zhao looked at Chris. "What about you? What are you doing here? "
"I'm here to slow you down," Chris said.
"Actually, Kris is afraid of living alone, so she followed you here," David explained for Kris.
"Chris and I are working together now. She helps get customers and I'm in charge of exorcising evil spirits." Sienna's mouth was filled with food.
"We're both short on money," Chris said shyly.
"Tell me what's going on." Sienna put down her beer bottle. She could eat as much as she wanted here.
After all, it wasn't easy to have a full meal. However, compared to David, it was child's play.
David directly poured the boiling soup into his mouth. Chen Zhao looked at David, speechless.
"Someone in town is going to summon a demon," Chen Zhao said.
"Summoning a demon? Like last time? "
"No, it's more serious than last time. Last time, it was just a projection. This time, it might be a complete demon."
"Can you handle it?"
"It's a complete demon, but I've asked a professional. It shouldn't be too strong."
"So you can handle it yourself?" Sienna asked.
"As long as it doesn't summon a great lord or demon king, Beelzebub and I can handle it."
"Then why do you want me to hide?"
"I can handle the demon, but it doesn't mean I can handle the murderer. The murderer probably has to kill a few more people to complete the summoning ritual. If he points a gun at my head, I'll have to kneel down too. So why are you here? To make trouble? If we are targeted by the murderer, everyone in this house will be wiped out. "
"I have a gun too. I'm a police officer." David said confidently, "Let's do this from now on. I'll take care of the criminals, and you take care of the supernatural ones."
"But we still have to work, right? We can't keep an eye on the murders in town all day," Chen Zhao said. "You're a cop. You can search everywhere, but I can't."
"It's okay, leave it to me. I'll help you find the murderer."
"No, we're not sure if the murderer has any supernatural powers. Even if you have a gun, it's not safe."
"If you pay, I can be David's partner for now. If he encounters supernatural powers, I can protect him," Sienna said.
"Consider this meal as a deposit."
"What? Then I'll go set up a stall. Kris and I are so poor that we can't even afford to eat. "
"You, I can understand. But why is Chris unemployed?"
Chris had quit her previous job in a clothing store, but with her looks and professionalism, it shouldn't be hard for her to find a similar job, right?
"I think my past life was too dull. I like being with Sienna," Chris said. After a pause, she added, "Plus, she gives me a sense of security."
"Sienna, Chris, don't tell me you …" David looked very shocked and bitter.
"Whether we are or not, you don't have a chance."
Knock, knock.
The noise in the living room continued. Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.
Chen Zhao ran to open it and saw Bant standing there.
In the pitter-patter of the night rain, Bant looked rather disheveled.
"Chen, I just heard Ken talk about what he did in the past. What do you think I should do? Should I call the police? "Bant was in great pain.
He didn't even know if Ken was telling the truth. He didn't know if he had killed anyone.
"Bant, calm down. I just went to the crime scene. I'm sure that Ken isn't the murderer. As for his past, I don't want to comment."
"Where's Ken and Mary?"
"Mary's a maid in L.A. right now. I don't dare to tell her about it. Ken is at home."
"Come in and eat something. My friend is inside. He's a cop. I told him about it and asked him to help investigate."
"Chen, thank you. I … I don't know how to thank you."
Chen Zhao patted Bant's shoulder. "Relax and don't think too much. I'll try my best to help. Call Ken over too. He can come in and tell my friend the details. He might be able to help."
"Chen, will your cop friend …"
"Don't worry. He's just my friend now, not a cop."
Bant nodded and ran back to drag Ken out.
After entering the room, Chen Zhao helped introduce everyone to him.
When it was Sienna's turn, she introduced herself and even took out a name card. "Hi, I'm a spiritualist. You can come find me if you need anything."
"Err … She's the spiritualist who helped me purify this house. I don't know if she's effective or not." Chen Zhao was a bit awkward.
"Ken, tell us the whole story. Perhaps with so many of us, we can help you discover some details that you haven't."
Ken still looked at Chen Zhao uncertainly. After all, he'd snuck into someone's house and the person was dead.
"Don't worry," David said, giving Chen Zhao face. "Since Chen said that you didn't kill him, I'll believe him."
"Ken, don't dawdle. Hurry up and tell us," Bant said aggressively, not at all polite to his son.
"Deppler and I used to be friends. We played together and …" Ken lowered his head, not daring to meet his father's gaze. "But there was a time when I was short of money and didn't have the money to buy drugs. Deppler encouraged me to steal something from the winery."
"What did you steal?"
"The winery's account book."
"The winery's account book?" Everyone was stunned. They'd thought that Ken would steal something valuable. They didn't expect him to steal the account book.
"Deppler asked for it. He said that someone wants the winery's account book."
"Who wants it?"
"I don't know. He didn't reveal the identity of his supervisor."
"Since you stole the account book, you should know about the winery's situation, right? Did you find anything? "
"I snuck into Mr. Trede Pemton's office and copied it with a flash drive. I didn't look at the information in the account book."
After a pause, Ken continued, "I sold it for a thousand dollars."
"So the flash drive that Deppler threatened to find evidence of you stealing the account book, right?" David asked.
