Chapter 1298 Searching

"This Jin, just based on a small detail, can infer so many things, and can also figure out your purpose." White Bear touched the furry ears on the top of his head and said in amazement: "This person should not be underestimated."

"He has a strong ability to observe details, and this matter involves Xiu Yisi, which happens to be within the scope of his concern, so it is normal for him to associate my purpose." Angel said, but despite this, he still has to admit that Jin's shrewdness is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

On the one hand, they sighed for Jin, but on Rolando, they still had no clue.

"The Rolando that Jin mentioned is not fake. It's just that the information we have is still too little, and his identity cannot be confirmed. Even the authenticity of his name needs to be questioned." Angel rubbed his nose: "The only useful information is that Jin has placed spies in Haiyue City. Now the Whale Baleen Sea route is still frozen, so if Rolando wants to return to Fan Continent and take the sea route, it is not the right time yet. In other words, he should still be in the Old Earth Continent, but Jin doesn't know the specific location."

Rolando left alone after getting off the boat, and no one knew where he was going. Although the Old Earth Continent is not big in the eyes of wizards, it is actually easy to hide a person whose face has never been seen.

Angel looked at White Bear: "From the limited information currently known, can you predict Rolando's location?"

White Bear pondered: "If this Rolando is his real name, plus I have his blood information, maybe I can give it a try."

After White Bear said this, he entered the stage of building a model.

Angel raised a protective force field to block the falling snow outside, and quietly waited for the white bear to give the result.

After a while, a short stick that never fell stood on the table of the gondola. No matter how the white bear released the prophecy, the short stick remained motionless.

In the end, the white bear could only open his eyes helplessly.

Facing Angel's eyes, the white bear smiled bitterly and shook his head: "My strength is still too weak to locate his location. Later, I changed my mind and wanted to judge whether this Rolando was his real name, but my school is the fate of the three major mainstreams, not the "questioning bell". So, asking the truth or not, I didn't get a definite answer."

At this point, it seemed to have entered a dead end again.

"So, let's go to Baibei Shipping to check the specific list on the Whitehead." Angel thought for a moment and made this decision.

Wearing the coat of night, the stars cast afterglow. They followed the direction of the sea breeze and came to Haiyue City, thousands of miles away from Connia.

The only branch of Baibei Shipping in the Old Earth Continent is near the Vichy Harbor in Haiyue City.

It is a bit too much to call it a branch. It is at most a base, just an inconspicuous three-story building. Moreover, the first floor of this building is a shop, and the second and third floors are listed as Baibei Shipping.

Angel initially thought that he needed to show his access card, perhaps to let the staff of Baibei Shipping recognize him. However, when they came here, they found that the person in charge here was only a first-level apprentice. When the person in charge sensed their strength, he immediately nodded and took out the nearest route list.

His proficiency made Angel wonder if many people came here to check the routes before?

It took a few minutes to check the list.

Angel turned his head and looked at everyone, shaking his head and said, "Sure enough, what Jin said is right, there is no record of him on the Whitehead."

Sanders thought, "It should be the same as Xiu Yis, who boarded the ship through a special channel. There is no record of people who boarded the ship through this channel."

Angel looked through the list again, and indeed, Xiu Yis's name was not recorded on it.

On the contrary, the extraordinary people that Jin mentioned before, including himself, Fei Ling, Henry, etc., were all recorded.

"Then will he hide among ordinary people?" White Bear asked.

There are nearly a hundred ordinary people on the Whitehead, and some of them are gifted people. Angel did not find Rolando among them.

Either the name Rolando reported to Jin at that time was a pseudonym, or he really did not register.

"In any case, let's check these ordinary people first." Angel quickly sorted out a list and asked the person in charge of Baibei Shipping about the addresses of these people.

If they were extraordinary people, he might still hesitate, but they were just a few ordinary employees, and the person in charge reported their information without hesitation.

Speaking of which, among these ordinary people, more than half left with the Whitehead, and the rest basically stayed in Haiyue City, waiting for the next voyage.

The exploration was handed over to White Bear. And Angel took out a few exploration puppets for him, which could greatly improve efficiency.

Angel and Sanders stayed in the gondola.

"This Rolando is hiding too deep, and I don't know if White Bear's exploration will work." Angel didn't ask to find Rolando immediately, as long as he could reveal a little clue.

"Since the other party wants to conceal his existence, this kind of superficial information is probably not going to find him." Sanders replied casually.

Angel probably understood it, but there was no other effective method at present, so he could only check these superficial information step by step.

After about three or four hours, when the morning star shone brightly and the sky was white, White Bear came back.

"I found thirty people, and there were no problems. There were seven people who left Haiyue City. I also asked about these seven people, and I also found people who had worked with them for many years. Basically, I can rule out suspicion. And , they all left records when they left, and they basically went to other cities around Haiyue City.”

Angel sighed. As expected, as Sanders said, it was difficult to find Rolando's existence based on superficial information.

"Among the seven people who left, were there any who were heading towards Gru Town? For example, to Waterford?" Angel asked without hope.

Bai Xiong recalled: "Watford... Hey, it seems that there really is one named Fullington. What he told others was that because there was a war between Jinque and Hailan before, he was going to The news that Watford is looking for a refugee from the shadow of war and that he is related to him has indeed been confirmed.”

"It sounds like there is no problem." Angel pondered: "Anyway, we have no clues for the time being, and we have to return to Gru Town, so let's go to Watford to have a look."

…

It snowed heavily in Watford, and the masonry ground quickly turned white.

With such low temperatures, there are far fewer people on the streets. Even those who really needed to go out were wearing thick clothes and felt hats, puffing out white mist as they hurried past.

At this time, two people walked out of the city hall. One of them was wearing a weird white bear doll costume, and the other was dressed in a neat aristocratic dress.

The aristocratic young man walking in front has an outstanding appearance that is eye-catching on this winter street. It's a pity that passers-by in a hurry are too busy to worry about the cold temperature, and they don't have time to appreciate others.

However, under a building near the city hall, a man leaning against the wall and smoking a pipe noticed the noble young man.

In the smoke, the man's expression seemed to be thinking about something. Seeing that the noble young man was about to walk away, he seemed to have made up his mind and walked towards the noble young man.

"My distinguished noble young master, you look a little troubled." The man took off his black soft felt hat and saluted.

The noble young man is none other than Angel.

He glanced at the man. He was wearing a waistcoat, trousers, leather shoes, and a brown trench coat. He was dressed like a regular gentleman. However, his trench coat was a little wrinkled, his bow tie was white, he had severe dark circles, his stubble was unshaven, and there was gray under his fingernails. He was stained and smelled of tobacco and sweat, and if he wasn't deliberately slovenly, he was living in embarrassment.

Seeing Angel looking at him, the man felt a trace of embarrassment on his handsome face.

"Let me introduce, my name is Richard Kraft, I am a private detective, because I have been working hard to solve a major case a few days ago. You know, the major case that caused a sensation in Watford recently! I haven't had time to rest yet. , so it looks a bit sloppy.”

Angel recalled that when he was in the city hall before, he seemed to have seen a front-page headline in a newspaper in a corner.

"You mean, the Blood Cross gold theft case?"

Richard was stunned: "You know?"

The white bear beside Angel sneered: "I saw it clearly written in today's newspaper that it was a case solved by the Knights. With all due respect, Mr. Kraft, you don't have any characteristics of a knight."

"Didn't you look at the two of us and think we were someone you could deceive, so you lied to defraud us?"

Richard smiled dryly, feeling embarrassed that he had been seen through.

"I'm just not famous. The Knights also need detectives..."

Bai Xiong didn't bother to pay attention to him. It wasn't worth wasting time on such a person, so he was about to turn around and leave.

However, Angel did not move, but looked at Richard: "Mr. Kraft, it seems that you are very accurate in identifying people? We have just come to Watford, so you think we are strangers, right?" ”

Richard waved his hand quickly: "No, I am really a private detective. It's just..."

Richard's voice slowly dropped: "It's just that I haven't received a commission for a long time. I saw you two just came out of the city hall. I thought you were having some difficulty, so I wanted to come over and ask if there was anyone who needed help."

Richard also indirectly admitted that he was indeed lying when he said he was involved in the gold theft case. After he finished speaking, he bowed to Angel: "I'm offended, I'll leave now."

When Richard turned around, Angel suddenly shouted: "Wait, since you are very accurate in identifying the person, I wonder if you are willing to accept the commission of finding the person."
