Elstein's carriage gradually moved away, slowly disappearing into the night, just as it had come.
Master Cat lay back in the armchair, while Wang Xu continued to play his poker game.
"What do you think?"
Mr.
Cat broke the silence.
"What do you think?"
Wang Xu didn't look back and continued playing poker.
"Don't pretend to be confused because you understand.
According to the legend, even if Zhou Yu is half a beat slower than Zhuge Liang, he is still Zhou Yu."
Wang Xu smiled: "It's rare for you to compliment me."
"I'm not flattering, I'm just telling the truth.
Since the fusion of your two souls, you have grown a lot in all aspects.
Furthermore, during the period after your little girlfriend disappeared, your strength has improved greatly.
I have also noticed it.
It seems that you have studied Guigu Taoism carefully.
But you did not continue to develop your own spiritual power, but instead practiced the magic.
Is it because you got something from another you that you should not know?
Where’s the information?”
Wang Xu sighed: "As long as we know the information clearly, if we put it on the table for discussion, we might really be struck to death by lightning."
Mr.
Cat said: "Then let's stop talking about that, and don't pretend to be innocent.
Let's talk about your opinion."
Wang Xu replied: "What else can I say?
That Elstein must still be lying."
"Go on."
"This person is by no means as easy to deal with as he seems.
He is actually very scheming and good at acting.
He started testing us from the moment he came in.
First, let's see if we can see through his fake identity.
As you said, If you can't see through this, leaving the matter to us will definitely result in failure.
Then, his performance continued.
Everything he did after he was discovered was extremely realistic.
There were almost no flaws in his eyes, movements, and tone.
What he said was 70% true and 30% false.
This is the most brilliant thing. lies.
But I can still basically tell which parts are bullshit and which parts are true. " Mr.
Cat said: "Very good, go on."
"First of all, the things about his true identity and his family must be true, because we can confirm these through third-party channels, and the things between him and Miss Jones are probably nonsense. , I don’t know how you judged it immediately, but you didn’t let him finish the lie he had already made up, which shows that you already knew this at that time.
Then he skipped the love plot he made up.
Later he said the key point was to let us detect where something was placed.
You followed his train of thought and directly speculated that it was a love letter or something like that.
He didn't deny it.
By the way.
According to your explanation, in the end, it was an envelope with a love letter from an invisible person and an even more invisible photo.
If my reasoning so far is all correct, he lied on two points.

First, the woman and he were not in love at all, but had some other relationship.
Second, what he wanted.
It is indeed an envelope, but if the first point is true, the content inside is definitely not a love letter or a photo, but something else. " Mr.
Cat clapped his hands: "It's wonderful.
You are definitely worthy of being my assistant today."
"Bah, I used to work as a handyman" "I'm not a handyman, I'm a follower."
"So many people died, why don't you die?"
Master Mao once again had a look of decadence on his face, and once again ignored Wang Xu's complaints: "I didn't expect that this first case would be much more complicated than it seemed.
It's really troublesome."
"If there is any trouble, isn't it easy for us to solve it easily?"
"Haha, I didn't say I wanted you to intervene in this case."
Wang Xu turned around at this time with a surprised look on his face: "Ah, if you are going to go it alone, why are you talking to me so much?"
"It's boring.
There is no TV or Internet these days.
The educated people just write books, read books, and attend concerts.
The common people just pick up girls, drink alcohol, and gamble.
People like me who came back from time travel are not going to talk nonsense to you.
Why don't you go get some drugs to taste?"
Wang Xu thought for a while and said: "That's fine.
If you want to work alone, I don't have to work hard.
I can go pick up girls, drink, and gamble."
Master Cat's next words immediately broke his illusion: "You don't have that spare time, I have a job for you, the job of a ghost hunter."
"Oh shit, it's been a long time, you're going to meet that Miss Jones alone, and I'm going to fight Frankenstein, right?"
"You are not good at dealing with women, and your English is not as fluent as mine, so my division of labor is very reasonable.
Besides, things like picking up girls, drinking, and gambling are still difficult for a virgin, poor drinker, and bad character like you.
It’s better to do less.”
Just as Wang Xu was about to retort, Mr.
Mao threw a newspaper at him, without giving him a chance to speak: "There is something very strange in this evening newspaper.
You should read it first.
Yes, that's right there.
Chapter 1 Second Edition.”
Wang Xu caught the newspaper, searched for the report that Master Mao was talking about, and took a quick look at it.
"Between nine and ten o'clock last night, a police officer on duty near Waterloo Bridge suddenly heard the cry for help and the sound of falling into the water.
It was dark at night and a heavy rainstorm was raging.
Therefore, although several passers-by came to help, It was impossible to rescue.
An alarm was issued immediately, and through the joint efforts of the police on the water, a body was finally recovered.
The body was identified as a young gentleman named Stan Penshaw, who lived near Horsham during his lifetime.
There were no signs of violence on the body.
There was no doubt that the deceased got lost in the dark and accidentally stepped on the edge of the pier and fell into the water.
This tragic accident is enough to draw the attention of the municipal authorities to the situation at the Riverside Pier.”
The following content had nothing to do with the incident itself, so Wang Xu didn't continue reading.
He raised his head and said, "What's going on is normal.
It was an accident."
Master Cat shook his head and said: "There is a train station near Waterloo Bridge.
There happens to be the last train between nine and ten o'clock.

The deceased lived in Horsham, so he probably wanted to take the train from downtown London.
Going back, but the problem is that a person who is eager to catch the train will run to the edge of the pier to see the scenery on a rainy night.
He is lost.
Haha, this reporter can quite justify it.
If he is an old man or a child, it is still possible.
But he's not.
If there is any irrationality, it is regarded as strange, so I asked Mrs.
Hodson to get some old newspapers and look through them, and the results confirmed my judgment.
In fact, four people have fallen into the water in the nearby river basin in two months.
Such so-called accidents happen almost every day, but they will never become as sensational as the case of Jack the Ripper."
Wang Xu already understood after hearing this: "So the police can't handle that matter, so I have to."
Master Mao picked up the coffee: "You can complete this matter independently.
You can gain more work experience by getting in touch with foreign ghosts and monsters."
"Well, you want to see how far I have improved my strength recently, right?"
Mr.
Cat didn't answer the question.
He drank the coffee, got up and went into his living room, with an imperceptible smile on his lips.
