Infinite Possession of Beauty
Chapter 50 The CaseSeek Collection
Stumbled out of the elevator carrying a wine bottle.
The reappearance of Kilgrave the Purple made Jessica Jones's messy life worse. She used alcohol to numb herself, trying to forget these bad memories.
"Ms. Jones?"
Staggered to the door of the room and office, Jessica dumbly took out the key from her pocket and wanted to open the door, but couldn't align the key smoothly with the keyhole.
"Shit!"
Secretly cursing, Jessica held the handle and was about to use some other means when she heard a slightly suspicious inquiry coming from behind.
Turning his head, he saw a haggard woman standing behind her.
"My name is Michelle, and I need your help!"
Seeing Jessica turned around, the woman said quickly.
"Is the way I look like I can help people?"
Faced with the woman's request, Jessica laughed at herself, and then turned back: "Tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, no, you should stop looking for me. I don't know when I will wake up."
"But, I have no other way." Jessica's refusal obviously made the woman's uneasy look even more gloomy. She stood there, making her last effort: "My husband John is missing. It’s been a week since I went home, which is very wrong."
"Haven't you thought about calling the police?"
Although she had decided not to take the case, the woman's words still made Jessica stop her actions subconsciously and asked: "They are free."
"No, I know my husband. He used to have regular schedules. He goes to work at 8:30 in the morning and leaves at 6:30. There is never any mistake."
Jessica: "Is he still a little mysterious, and sometimes he looks nervous."
"Yes, nothing wrong." Upon hearing Jessica's speculation, the woman nodded in excitement.
However, Jessica's next words suddenly disappointed her.
"That's because he cheated, madam, I regret to tell you such a news, but it may be true."
"Ms. Jones, you don't know my husband."
"However, I understand this kind of thing. After all, I am professional in investigating extramarital affairs."
She shook her head, and faced Jessica's answer, the woman looked very disappointed, but he still held up a smile: "Sorry, Ms. Jones interrupted you. Maybe you are not the one I was looking for. "
"Unfortunately."
Seeing the woman’s disappointed departure, Jessica grabbed her hair a little distractedly for some reason, looked at the door in front of the room that could not be opened smoothly, and pulled out the whole handle with force. come out.
"Shit! All shit!"
Entering the office and throwing her hand on the cabinet, Jessica scolded secretly, not knowing whether she was talking about her life or the previous unhappy conversation.
Jingle Bell—— Jingle Bell——
Just here, the phone in the office rang, glanced at the phone on the desk, Jessica absolutely ignored it.
No matter who you are, you are making the wrong call.
After two or three beeps, the call will automatically switch to the message function.
"Jessica Jones, help yourself, put your curiosity away and don't look for John, otherwise..."
...
"Jessica, don't you have a normal job?"
In the antique shop, Li Ran looked at Jessica Jones, who appeared drunk early in the morning, and couldn't help but frown and asked.
"I'm working right now." After taking a sip of wine, Jessica turned to look at the look in the antique shop, and turned her eyes to the new counter in front of her, making her subconsciously pick up her slender eyebrows: "Change New ones."
"Who do you think caused it."
Hearing Jessica's words, Li Ran suddenly replied somewhat irritably.
The Purple Man Kilgrave, who had been attracted by the other party before, had a fight in his shop, and even destroyed a lot of things in the antique shop. Although they were not valuable things, it took Li Ran a lot of effort to organize them.
"Sorry, I haven't been able to control my temper." Sorry was said in her mouth, but Jessica didn't even apologize at all on her face.Although she is small, her temper is unexpectedly short-tempered.
"So, why are you here for me this time?"
When someone with a legend like Jessica took the initiative to come, Li Ran would naturally not refuse, but his expression suddenly became a little unpleasant when he thought of the purple man behind him.Judging from the current situation, the ability of the Purple Man Kilgrave is still a big threat to Li Ran. After all, this ability to manipulate people as he pleases is really too incomprehensible.
Perhaps, the power of [Broken Curse Seal] can resist the purple man's control superpower.
Reminiscent of the feeling when he used the curse seal before, that cold, evil aura seemed to be similar to the purple man's ability, and they were all things that control people's consciousness. Li Ran had a little guesswork.
"Originally, I was going to change money, but I searched the house and found nothing valuable." At this time, Jessica's slightly hoarse voice interrupted Li Ran's association with Ziren: "I recently I took the case. No, it should be a case I didn’t intend to take. However, after a voice-changed phone called to my office, the other party issued a warning, saying that for my safety, don’t take this case."
"So, you are next."
Sometimes, Li Ran really can’t understand the thinking of some villains, and the plan that can be successfully completed quietly and quietly, he has to warn and warn that, or simply expose it directly and cause trouble to himself. Wouldn't they? Do you understand the truth of wretched development?
Maybe it's because of swelling, and feel that no matter what force can't stop him?
Or, simply doing something that no one knows is too awkward and wanting to have the audience express their reaction.
While thinking about it, Li Ran turned his head and looked at the legend that was refreshed again in the system data bar, feeling happy.
"Hey, are you listening to me?!"
On the opposite side, Jessica made a dissatisfied voice.
"Well, you go on."
Shrugging, Li Ran motioned to the other party.
After taking a sip of wine, Jessica continued: "Yes, I answered. I don't like the tone on the phone. Following the clues given by the other's wife, I searched the Internet and found nothing too useful. The clue, on the surface, seems to be just an ordinary disappearance case without any weirdness. Until, through the passage of some past informants, I found a name."
"Hands Hehui, have you heard of it?"
