Solomon's narration finally came to an end, and there was a brief silence in the restaurant box.
Moonlight was the first to ask a question: "Mr. Solomon, I don't mean to offend, I'm just expressing my doubts - it stands to reason that you were already a very capable explorer five years ago. Don't you feel anything when watching the play? Is it so unreasonable that you suspect some mysterious event has occurred?"
Solomon shook his head: "Even when I am drunk, I am still very sensitive to resentment and spiritual power.
"My senses told me that everything was normal at the time. Then I wouldn't think it was something mysteriously out of control...
"After all, if any abnormal situation in life is arbitrarily determined to be a mysterious event, then many things will not be explained."
Sean nodded slightly: "That is to say, until you discovered that the drama "Blood Red Wedding" did not exist, you did not regard it as a mysterious event, but just thought that you saw a special drama?"
"That's right." Solomon nodded, "There was no resentment or spiritual power, no one was hurt, it was just a drama beyond imagination.
“It wasn’t until I couldn’t find the existence of this play that I realized that it might involve a mystery.
"Of course, as I said before, I also suspect that it was just an extremely real dream that I had."
Solomon scratched his forehead: "Is it a dream? - This is the key to what bothers me."
"I understand." Sean glanced at Moonlight and said, "In other words, what you want to entrust is to investigate whether the drama "Blood Red Wedding" exists, whether it is in daily life or at a mysterious level.
"If there are no traces on both levels... maybe it can be judged that it was your extraordinary soul that created a strange dream."
"That's right." Solomon seemed to have finally regained his appetite and continued to enjoy the cold anchovy meat.
Moonlight still seemed to be puzzled, and he asked: "But why don't you solve this mystery yourself? Maybe, this will make you feel more secure."
Solomon shrugged: "It's a matter of time... I have too many cases in Europe, and it's impossible to calm down and solve this mystery in the New Testament.
"I've been trying to take some time off last year and found it impossible to do."
"And..." Chewing the fish meat gently, Solomon raised his eyes, looked at Sean and Yueguang with a smile, and said softly: "As a detective who is somewhat famous in the industry, I can't entrust this kind of matter to someone who doesn't understand...
"Lest there be some rumors that my ability to find the truth is lacking.
“In reality, it was just a matter of time and my curiosity.
"Finding you this time can be regarded as a coincidence - coming to New York City has brought back my memories; and you two gentlemen not only make me trustworthy, but also have considerable strength...
"I think this might be a good opportunity to solve the mystery of the past."
Without hesitation, Sean and Moonlight made eye contact and accepted the task.
According to Solomon's judgment, this was a standard Queen-level mission, and the mission reward he offered seemed to be affected by his curiosity and became quite generous.
"I believe this is not too big a challenge for you now." Before leaving, Solomon put on his coat and held a hat in his hand. "If you have any questions during the mission, you can contact me via telegram."
They hugged each other and put the European detective into a taxi. The two stood on the street and watched each other for a long time.
"What do you think?" The car merged into traffic, and Sean looked back at his partner.
The moonlight lit the cigarette, he raised his head, his eyes shimmering: "A very interesting mission."
Sean knew that the mystery that had troubled Detective Solomon for many years had aroused Moonlight's interest.
"Hmm..." Sean narrowed his eyes slightly, showing an expression that was almost the same as Moonlight's, "It's indeed very interesting."
Sean was stunned when he realized that the feeling in his heart was excitement and excitement.
This was not how Sean felt before about the horrific events that made ordinary people panic.
"Could it be that I was infected by the moonlight and became curious and excited about mysterious events?"
The New Testament reporter chuckled to himself and shook his head.
——
Two days later, Sean's home.
Standing in front of the full-length mirror, Olivia helped Sean put on his new black camel hair suit, while Aaliyah helped Sean straighten his tie on his chest.
"Brother, is the Dyson Lauer you are talking about the inventor who helped you decipher the record?"
Today is Dyson Lauer's hearing on Emerson's infringement, and Sean will go to the scene.
Taking the tie clip handed over by Olivia, Sean nodded: "Yes, that's him."
Thinking of what happened before, Sean smiled bitterly and said: "The preaching content about the Utopia in that record scared the poor big brother.
“He didn’t contact me again for a long time.
“I think it was the hearing that reminded him of me.
"Anyway, I wrote the previous article, and he also helped me a lot. I want to go to the hearing to have a look...
"Perhaps, he can write a follow-up manuscript to help him fight against Emerson..."
Although the major shareholder of Emerson Electric Company is not the top rich man in Newland, he is already considered a celebrity and powerful person that ordinary people cannot shake.
Sean has realized that if he wants to make a difference in the New Testament media industry, he must be active on this stage.
And using some large-scale events to show your abilities is one of the ways to accumulate resources.
As for why you choose to help the disadvantaged Raul?
On the one hand, out of righteous indignation, on the other hand, Sean has also discovered that Emerson's public image is in jeopardy.
After finishing dressing with the help of the two ladies, Sean looked at himself in the mirror: "With you two here, I don't have to worry about my appearance anymore..."
Sean's compliment made Aaliyah and Precision Girl look at each other and smile.
"I'm going out." Putting the hat with the camel hair coat on his head, Sean opened the door.
She didn't want Aaliyah to be alone at home, and Sean didn't need extra protection in New Testament City, so Olivia still acted as her sister's partner and bodyguard.
Arriving at the hearing site on Central Street in a taxi, Sean saw a large number of media reporters before getting off the car, looking at the direction of traffic on the road like refugees waiting for food distribution.
After getting off the car, Sean went directly to the entrance of the venue, confirmed that his name was on the invitation list, showed his reporter certificate, and walked into the venue smoothly.
After fifteen minutes of people gradually entering the venue and taking their seats, Sean saw Mr. Dyson Lauer walking into the venue surrounded by reporters.
Mr. Raul's expression looked quite calm and solemn. The security personnel opened a way for him. Before taking his seat, he saw Sean sitting in the audience.
The serious old man nodded towards the reporter who had helped him, and Sean also nodded in greeting.
Sean discovered that Mr. Emerson did not arrive at the scene. Only representatives and lawyers from Emerson Electric Company came over.
It seems that the "Invention King" is tired of the media's questioning and questioning, and he chose not to show up at such an important hearing.
After everyone was seated, the chairman of the hearing committee banged the gavel, and the venue, which was originally noisy due to the conversation, suddenly became quiet.
"Then, the first hearing for Mr. Dyson Lauer to accuse Mr. Emerson of infringing on his invention patent rights will begin now..."
After the crowd quieted down, Sean suddenly felt that he seemed to be being watched by someone.
It wasn't a malicious look, just a simple gaze.
He turned around and searched for the source of that gaze among the crowd with serious or dull expressions.
A bald man wearing round glasses; a tall, thin young man wearing a vest; a woman with her hair tied up and a single eyelid...
It seems that no one is watching me...
He closed his eyes and felt it carefully.
The fleeting feeling of being watched by others just now has disappeared without a trace.
Someone noticed his looking back and became more cautious.
"What's going on?" Sean sat in the crowd and frowned suspiciously.
