"I am very grateful to Shaman 2567 for helping me find the Curseman Vase!
"There is no doubt about his ability."
"Moreover, he will be my friend forever."
…
On the TV, Riton Lystie was holding a press conference.
"What a smart fella.
The Lystie Family is really lucky. "
Eckart clicked his tongue as he watched Riton Lystie on the TV. Kieran, on the other hand, was nonchalantly stuffing House of Han pastries into his mouth.
It was what Eckart and Riton Lystie had agreed on before.
Part of the reward was cash.
The rest was to cooperate with Eckart to build up Shaman 2567's image.
Eckart had explained everything to Kieran in detail back in the van, so Kieran wasn't surprised at all. Moreover, the pastries in front of him were more worthy of his attention.
The sweetness that spread over his taste buds was very satisfying.
Kieran ignored Eckart and Lyn Amie's gazes and squinted his eyes in satisfaction.
"Aren't you being too stingy?"
Eckart crossed his arms and said.
"This is mine."
Kieran emphasized.
"Okay, okay."
It's yours!
"But I really want to know what happened to the Curseman Vase."
Eckart asked out of curiosity.
Lyn Amie also looked at Kieran curiously.
"When the Curseman Vase entered Rain City Museum, it was swapped out.
It's just a gold-plated replica.
The inside should be made of porcelain with weights. "
Kieran put a round piece of pastry with honey and cheese into his mouth and said slowly.
"It was switched before?
But that vault … "
"That's a joke!
I gave the three keys to three untrained personnel for safekeeping. I have more than a hundred ways to prepare the spare keys without anyone noticing. "
Kieran looked at the half-empty box of pastries and carefully closed the lid.
He decided to brew a cup of tea during his reading at night, eating and reading at the same time. It would be great.
"But what about the password?"
"Even if we can get the spare key, why would Pol Nelson tell us the password?"
Lyn Amie frowned in confusion.
"If he doesn't have any selfish motives, of course not."
"But do you expect a guy who colludes with thieves to be selfless?"
"For the sake of safety, he decided to make more than one plan."
Besides, I'm very confident that the shard of the Curseman Vase, which has been stripped of its golden skin, is in Pol Nelson's office.
Kieran said.
"That's to say …"
"The one who stole the Curseman Vase was also in cahoots with Borl Nelson?"
Eckart and Lyn Amie asked in an uncertain tone after exchanging a gaze with each other.
"Yes."
"More precisely, those guys went to Pol Nelson first."
"They probably knew about Pol Nelson's' bad habit 'in advance, and then used some tricks to lure Pol Nelson into a trap."
Kieran nodded.
"The one who stole the Curseman Vase and the one who attacked Riton Lystie, are they the same?"
Lyn Amie asked as if he suddenly thought of something.
Before Kieran could answer, Gorbor came back.
"Boss, Officer Lin An is here."
Kieran couldn't reject Lin An's identity.
However, when he walked into the villa and saw the TV, Lin An's face, which was already pale due to excessive blood loss, turned even uglier.
"We found the suspect who attacked you and Riton Lystie in the back alley of the convenience store."
"But he was severely beaten up."
The middle-aged officer explained what happened just now, but his eyes were glued to Kieran.
The middle-aged officer explained what happened just now, but his eyes were glued to Kieran. After his words subsided, he continued, "2567, are you the one who attacked him?"
His words were fast and abrupt.
Most people would show an unnatural expression when questioned like this if they had a guilty conscience.
However, Kieran had been through too many similar questions.
"Nope.
I'm a shaman, but I'm not a hero.
I won't fight a thug with my bare hands. "
Kieran replied calmly.
"He was kicked until he fainted."
The officer's gaze sharpened.
"So you want to check the soles of my shoes?
The first pair on the shoe rack in front of the door, the first pair, the black one is mine. "
Kieran pointed at the door.
"I want to know more about the case.
"What happened to the Curseman Vase that was stolen?"
The middle-aged officer glanced at the door, then turned his head back.
Since Kieran dared to say so, he believed he wouldn't get any more clues from the door.
Besides, up until now, he hadn't been able to pick up any clues from Kieran.
But strangely, the suspicion in his heart grew deeper.
"You should ask Riton Lystie, not us."
Kieran didn't answer, so Eckart took over the conversation and rejected the officer with a smile.
"Fine, I'll go ask him.
If there's anything else, I'll come back and ask you. I hope you won't leave Rain City in the near future. "
As he spoke, the middle-aged officer stood up.
"I'll be happy to cooperate."
Eckart replied with a smile.
The officer nodded and walked towards the villa's door. When he reached the door, he turned around and said, "Thank you."
"What?"
Kieran looked at the officer with a blank face.
The officer saw the blank expression on Kieran's face, he couldn't help but frown. In the end, he shook his head.
"It's nothing."
The officer then pushed the door open and left.
Eckart couldn't help but pout his lips when the door was shut.
"Harder to deal with than Mei Huasheng.
I bet if you said you're welcome, 2567, he would have handcuffed you and sent you back to the station.
"But who beat up the attacker?"
Eckart asked.
"Who knows?
Maybe it's Riton Lystie's trump card in the dark. "
Kieran naturally pushed the question to Eckart.
"Hmm, it's possible.
Given the Lystie family's background, they might really have a so-called Shadow Warrior or something. "
Eckart thought for a while and nodded seriously.
"Shadow Samurai?"
Not only that, but … "
"Very special."
Kieran curled his lips into a grin.
…
"Sharp observation.
"Vigilant."
"He knows advanced hypnotism."
And … "
"Should know some other tricks that we don't know."
Riton Lystie sat in the car and said slowly.
And sitting opposite him was a lady.
Nuna.
