Mystery: Who has seen my brother?

Chapter 57 The Blame
At 11 o'clock in the evening, the Moretti brothers and sisters said good night to each other and went back to their rooms to rest.

Klein took off his coat and placed his hands on the buttons of his shirt. Just as he was about to unbutton them, he heard a strange "puffing" sound.

Klein paused, and then he saw the wall of the room become illusory, and a round cat head with white bat wings flew out from the wall.

This is... my sister's messenger "Little Puji"?
His sister told him that His messenger had a cat head that made a "puff puff" sound and possessed the strength of a demigod. Klein was shocked at the time. Using a demigod as a messenger, is this the spirit of a big boss?
Klein looked at the messenger in front of him. He had a round, white cat head, with orange ears and eyes. Although he only had a head and no body, he didn't look scary at all, but rather adorable.

"Very cute..." Klein had just praised in his heart when he saw Little Puji's body tremble. A pair of muscular arms that were extremely disproportionate to its body suddenly appeared on both sides. The muscles were bulging, and one of their arms was thicker than Klein's two.

Little Puji opened his mouth. When it was closed, the little cat's mouth suddenly turned into a monster's bloody mouth, full of sharp teeth like sharks. When it was fully opened, the mouth occupied one-third of Little Puji's volume.

It reached its muscular arm into its mouth, pulled out a snow-white envelope, and placed it on Klein's desk, pushing it inside as if afraid it would fall.

After putting the letter away, the bloody mouth slowly closed, and little Puji returned to its original cute appearance.

"Puchi~" It gave a soft, cheerful cry before diving back into the wall, leaving Klein stunned.

Ah this...

Klein glanced at the wall where Little Puji disappeared, his lips twitching as he felt a kind of beauty that was beyond words.

He glanced at the envelope on the table. It was clean and free of saliva, so he picked it up with confidence.

It was a letter from Frank Lee. He first greeted Klein in the letter, then asked about the taste of the fruit fish, talked about his next research species, and finally earnestly hoped that Klein and Eve could visit the "Future".

Klein wrote back, detailing Ruirui's evaluation of the fruit fish and subtly suggesting that Frank could shift the direction of hybridization toward increasing production. Finally, he declined Frank's invitation, telling him that he had some issues and would visit the "Future" once they were resolved.

Klein checked the contents of the letter and, after confirming they were correct, he pulled out a small silver bell from his coat and infused it with spirituality.

The silver bell shook twice by itself but made no sound.

"Pfft~"

Little Puji reappeared in the house. It took a look at the letter in Klein's hand and opened its bloody mouth.

Is this asking me to throw the letter into its mouth?

Klein thought of the letter it had taken out of its mouth and tossed it in with a flick of his wrist.

Little Puji closed his mouth and disappeared into the house again with a "Puji~" sound.

……

Because of the Welch case, security companies have ushered in a spring of development. Even the little-known Blackthorn Security Company has received three large orders in a row. Two of them are Ms. Elena's investigation of Baron Edgar, which is handled by Frye, and the other is the search for the kidnapped little Elliot received this afternoon, which was handed over to Klein and Leonard who stayed in the company at the time.

Although they turned to Blackthorn Security Company because they really couldn't find any other security company to take the job.

This was his first mission. No, this should be a private job, Klein corrected himself in his mind.

After the mission, Klein felt like he had forgotten something but couldn't remember what it was. This feeling came after Leonard high-fived him.

My sister said Leonard was involved with a high-ranking being. Klein sat on the sofa, reading the newspaper, thinking about going to Sefirah Castle for divination after work. No, he couldn't divine anything involving a high-ranking being. He should tell my sister.

The sound of a door opening was heard, and Luo Shan's sweet voice said, "Captain, you're back. Hey? Who is this?"

Dunn turned sideways to reveal a disheveled middle-aged man behind him. He had no coat, his clothes were torn in many places, and his white shirt was stained with muddy yellow.

"This is Her Excellency Cecima," Dunn introduced.

"Sir Cecima has arrived?" Klein said in surprise. Although he knew that Sir Cecima's trip would probably be in vain, as a participant in the case, he still had to pretend.

"Thanks to Leonard," Dunn's deep blue eyes showed a hint of annoyance, "I didn't even think of picking up Lord Cecima."

"Wow," Roxanne exclaimed, "Leonard has become smarter!"

Leonard frowned and said dissatisfiedly, "What do you mean by getting smarter? I..."

"Indeed, just thinking about picking someone up doesn't make you smart," Luo Shan said. "Normally, everyone would think of it."

"But we didn't expect this at all," Klein said with a frown. "This is a bit suspicious."

"And someone is trying to stop me from entering Tingen," Cecima said grimly, "If it weren't for Captain Dunn, I wouldn't be able to reach Tingen in a month."

"That black cat?" Dunn guessed in a serious tone. After all, Cecima came here just for the black cat.

The corner of Klein's mouth twitched slightly. Ruirui was really wrongly blamed.

"That might be," Cecima nodded, "but why didn't it stop you from coming to pick me up?"

"Because we moved quickly, it didn't know and didn't react? That's not right..." Dunn denied his guess. If it really wanted to prevent Lord Cesimar from entering Tingen and obstruct him along the way, it should have been paying close attention.

"Maybe it's not that..." Leonard said tentatively. Seeing the captain and Lord Cecima immediately looking at him, Leonard hurriedly said, "I'm just guessing."

"That's an idea," Klein said, taking the opportunity to echo Leonard's words. "Perhaps there really is a third party, and it's them who stopped Lord Cecima."

"But even if there is a third party," Dunn said, "they should also be cooperating with Black Cat. Otherwise, why would they help Black Cat to obstruct Lord Cecima?"

"Uh..." Klein pondered for a moment and said tentatively, "Perhaps it's not for Black Cat. They have other reasons for not wanting Lord Cecima to come to Tingen?"

"Alright, there's no evidence of a third-party force right now, so let's not speculate," Cecima said. "Regardless of whether that so-called third-party force exists or not, we have to investigate the black cat. Let's investigate the black cat first. Once we've investigated the black cat, we'll know whether the third-party force actually exists."

Klein felt like crying but had no tears. "I'm sorry, Ruirui. I tried my best, but this blame is stuck to you like glue."

And Ruirui really doesn't need to check. She just came to Tingen for a stroll and she doesn't even know which city she went to. How can she check?
Klein felt that the third-party force was most likely real. The most urgent task was to investigate that third-party force, as it was the one that truly harbored ill will towards the Nighthawks and might be plotting some grand conspiracy.

Ok?
Klein had always been very sensitive to other people's gazes. He felt someone was staring at him closely. Following that line of sight, he saw Leonard's green eyes staring at him with a mysterious smile.

Klein retracted his gaze and wondered, had the being behind Leonard sensed the existence of a third-party force and alerted Leonard?
