"He's not here, we're committing a burglary," Niese said.
"Yes. I want to grab it."
Winnie stepped forward and stood at the table and gestured, "Now that you have stepped through the door, why not just watch from the side."
Nesse walked past silently.
The luminous stone is slightly bright. Looking at a stack of documents from Dix on the table.
It is today’s record about Ameses V and the Featherless Ones. He stared at it.
"What? Are you interested in this? Pick it up and look through it." Winnie said with a smile, "I make the decision, you are an accomplice."
"I was certainly offended enough."
Nesse stood still and didn't move.
They made such a big fuss and no one came. It seemed that Dix was indeed not here.
But no matter what, the crime of breaking into the detective agency at night cannot be changed.
The more important thing now is... to watch Winnie, lest she gets interested and burns this place down.
"Just tell me to come here. I've already done it." He said coldly, "Let me tell you in advance, I don't plan to take anything here. If you have nothing else, I should go back. "
"Then you have to open your eyes."
Winnie snorted and crossed her arms. "I asked you to come, but I didn't ask a blind man to come." There was a cunning light in her eyes. "Can't you just take a look?"
"You seem to have a bad impression of Deeks."
Nesei glanced at her, "I think you always want to prove that everyone in Semolan is a villain like you."
"You're wrong about that."
Winnie laughed. "Then what else is special about me? I told you earlier that we need to know each other better.
In fact, among the guys in Semoland who are full of blood debts, Dix is considered a good one. "
"So you're going to rob him?"
"Use your eyesight. Please. Suspend your moral standards for now. That thing will only destroy the relationship."
Just because he is good and you are good does not mean that you are in the same group and you can be with him.
In fact, you are only suitable for people like me. "
Winnie came to a decisive conclusion and threw the stack of documents in his hand. "Do you want to watch it or not?"
"Whatever you say, Winnie."
Nese sighed, "This was originally the piece I entrusted him with."
He pointed to the cover of the document. "I know everything inside, there's nothing interesting to see at all."
"Then why were you staring at it as soon as you walked in? Are you really so honest with each other?"
Winnie also stretched out a finger and pointed at the name written in black ink:
"Veland".
Nese paused for two seconds.
Winnie had hit the sweet spot - he didn't tell the whole story about Deeks, and maybe Deeks didn't either.
"Okay. But. Blame me," he said after a moment.
He shook the document and turned it to the latest page.
…
"The name of the featherless one is once again called——"
This is what Dix saw in the crystal ball and what Anmeses V wrote in his diary. He really got the information about the Featherless One from here...
Nesse saw the second half of the sentence.
A chill came out of my heart.
"It seems I'm not the only one who knows your identity." Winnie came over, took a glance and said.
Nese squeezed the page tightly and felt cold sweat slowly break out on her forehead.
The second half of the sentence is:
"My appointment with the devil 'Lightless One' will be in three days."
He closed the file abruptly.
Deeks knew who he was.
Not only that, Anmeses V also knew about it.
No.
If you think about it this way, the order should be that Anmeses V relied on Asmo's amazing insight to see his identity first, and then Dix learned from him?
Or did Deeks know it the first time he saw him step into the detective agency?
"How about it?"
Winnie looked at his expression and said, "Just a reminder, you just said: 'There's nothing interesting to see at all'."
Nesai forgot to fight back and put a hand on his forehead to think hard.
They knew that he was the demon "Lightless One" that Ufa ordered to find.
King Anmeses V saw his demonic form and actually asked him to meet again in three days.
That……
Three days later, will Anmeses really answer his question? Or do you have other plans?
What is he going to do about this...
No.
It doesn't matter.
He was surprised to find that even so, it did not affect his decision.
Whatever Anmesses' intentions were, he had to go to this meeting. The Dean mentioned the Featherless Ones. This is the ultimate mission of the universe proposed by the demon teacher.
He will move forward even if the road ahead is unpredictable.
But on the other hand……
Dix clearly discovered this wanted criminal who was known to everyone in Semolan, but he concealed it and pretended not to know, and still had a pleasant conversation with him...
This made him feel even more horrified.
"Hey. Look at the expression on your face, as if someone has just slapped you hard." Winnie said.
Nese stared at Winnie.
Yes. She was right.
He was set up.
Two lanes.
He grabbed the dossier again and continued to turn the pages. "Look quickly. That guy should be back soon." Wei Ni reminded.
Something is wrong.
He thought as he watched.
This file indeed records the investigation case he commissioned.
There are records from their first conversation to their last exchange today. Most of the conversations I had with them fit the bill. Dix withheld only this one record.
But it is the most critical point. A terrible place.
Maybe Deeks meant well.
He obviously does not follow Ufa Ufa's command directly.
If Dix wanted to report the demon "Lightless One" as soon as possible, when he entered the detective agency for the first time today, he would have been surrounded by the Star Helmet soldiers and the men led by Ungoro, and even Ufa Ufa. I might also arrive.
Yes. He did lie to himself.
But he also protected him, and the news seemed to have not leaked out yet.
So, Deeks is indeed kind and friendly, the help is real, the care is genuine and not contemptuous, and he is still his friend, right?
but……
For some reason, Nesse found it hard to trust him anymore. Just like he had a hard time trusting Winnie.
Something is wrong.
Some bits and pieces, things that made him feel strange before, but he ignored them.
for example……
Why is the name of Dix Detective Agency so simple and direct? According to Semolan's naming rules, it would obviously be better to name it a pun like "Pierge Your Heart".
Another example -
This is the most dangerous place in Lower Semeran and the most accident-prone place. Judging from his two visits, Dix had no assistants or guards. Why did he choose this place to open a detective agency?
Maybe he just remembered the name, or the rent here is cheap, or something.
Nesai looked at the small sign on the table.
The one that says "Dix Detective Agency" on it.
Thirty years of experience is of course fake.
But this is not enough evidence to doubt him.
"Let's go upstairs and take a look."
Nesai felt a breath being held in her chest, "The things here don't mean anything."
"You just said I was robbing." Winnie smiled and stretched out her arms to stop him. "Do you want to be the boss now?"
"Are you trying to stop me?" Nese frowned and looked at Winnie who was standing in front of her.
"We have limited time. He will be back soon."
The half-elf's expression suddenly turned solemn. "follow me."

I've been quite busy recently, and a little accident happened today, so I only have one chapter today, and I may take 0.5~1 day off tomorrow.
