Chapter 3507 Research on Cats and Dogs (Fifty-five)

While Yoton was talking to the police, Elsa pulled Shiller's sleeve. The two walked out of the back door together and stood in front of the window towards the backyard.

"I don't think he's a good person." Elsa concluded first.

"I think so too." Schiller nodded, "but it's okay, we're not here to find him. It's nice that he can provide us with a place to stay."

"Why do you think so?" Schiller asked again.

"I can't say it, it just feels nervous." Elsa shook her head and said, "From the appearance, he should be a shy nerd. But will people who are not good at socializing really invite strangers to live in their own home?"

"Also, although he didn't show it, he felt inexplicably excited. The look of looking at me was strange." Elsa rubbed her arms with her hands, and then said, "His sister looks about the same age as me. He doesn't have any strange habits, right?"

"It's not that complicated," Schiller said. "By the way he says he likes my theory, he can tell he's not a good person."

"Why?"

"What kind of good people can be someone who likes psychoanalysis?"

“…It makes sense.”

Schiller accompanied Elsa to swing in the backyard. After talking to the police, Yoton walked over, crossed his fingers, looking a little reluctant to speak.

"What's wrong?" Schiller looked at him and said, "Why are the police coming? Are you in trouble?"

"Nothing." Yoton shook his head and said, "because the location of the alien spacecraft was the wheat fields on my farm. There are often people from other places wandering around. The police came to remind me to be safe and told me not to go out casually recently."

"It should be true." Schiller nodded, as if he agreed. "The appearance of a new face in the town should make the police very nervous. When I came, the police stopped me and specifically told me to be careful."

"Have you met the police before?" Yoton's ending sound was a little broken. He immediately realized something and cleared his throat and said, "They are indeed a little too nervous. They probably didn't do anything to you, right?"

"No. My daughter said she was coming to find aliens, so the police didn't ask much. But he mentioned that someone seemed to be missing recently. Do you know what's going on?"

"Oh, yes," replied Yoton, "I heard about it, but I haven't been to town recently, and I don't know what's going on."

Schiller nodded. Elsa stopped swinging and looked at Schiller and said, "Dad, I'm a little hungry!"

Schiller touched her head and said, "Then let's go to the car to get food."

Schiller did prepare some food in the car, but they were all snacks used to coax Aisa, and there was nothing that could be used as a staple food. He said this just to see Joton's attitude.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Jodon stepped forward and said, "You are a guest at my house. If you still eat what you bring yourself, it will make me feel inadequate."

"My farm has a large vegetable field. Recently, it is the harvest season, and I have picked a lot of fresh vegetables. My cooking skills are also pretty good. I think I can show you my skills..."

"It's too troublesome," Schillert said, "You have kindly invited us to stay and saved us the accommodation fee. It would be a bit too rude to ask you to cook."

"It's okay, I love cooking." Yoton said with a smile, "I'll pick vegetables and it'll be fine soon."

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the warehouse as if he was afraid that Schiller would regret it. Schiller and Elsa looked at each other.

Seeing that Joton's figure completely disappeared, Schiller whispered to Elsa: "Go and take me the small box on the far right hand side of the trunk of the car. There are dangerous items inside, don't open them, and don't break them."

Elsa nodded, walked through the house in a row, walked around from the front yard to the garage, took out a small black box from the trunk, and ran back quickly.

Schiller took the box and put it in his trench coat pocket. Elsa asked curiously: "What is this?"

Schiller shook his head without specifying it, just said, "This is a weapon that may be used later."

"You really should practice guns, professor. At this time, you can solve all the trouble with a pistol." Elsa shrugged and said.

"That may not be necessary. If you don't install a silencer, it's too loud. It's not easy to carry with you. If you are touched by someone, you'll be done."

"It's amazing." Elsa sighed, "I really didn't realize that you actually know how knowledgeable you are in guns. Professor."

It was obvious that Elsa was joking, and Schiller patted her head. Elsa smiled at him.

They walked back to the sofa in the room and sat down, but through the window they saw a police car parked in front of the house.

"Who are you here this time?" Schiller asked.

"It must be a real policeman."

"Do you think it wasn't true before?"

"Of course not." Elsa shook her head and said, "Uncle James said that in addition to daily patrols, American police must be in groups of two people for any field mission. Especially when approaching residential houses, one person knocks on the door and another person must be on guard, otherwise it will be a violation of police code."

"Everyone knows this rule. Even if a liar wants to pretend to be a policeman, he will find a partner, in a group of two. Otherwise, no one will open the door for him."

"The male policeman had only one person coming here before, and it was very wrong. When Yoton saw this situation, he actually dared to open the door, which was even more wrong."

"So smart." Schiller praised.

The door was knocked. The owner of the house was not there, Schiller had to walk over and open the door.

The policeman outside the door saw that it was not the owner of the house who opened the door, so he immediately took out his gun. Schiller quickly stretched out his hands and signaled: "We are tourists coming to play. Mr. Yoton invited me and my daughter to stay here. He went to the warehouse to get things and would come back soon."

Seeing that there was a little girl behind Schiller, the police not only did not relax their vigilance, but instead waved their guns and kept Schiller away.

Elsa walked to the police. The female policeman in the back walked up and asked her about the specific situation. After learning that Elsa and Schiller were indeed father and daughter, the police put away the gun.

After learning that Schiller was a university professor, they were even more relieved. The customs of the central states were relatively simple, and the more they lacked educational resources, the more they respected intellectuals.

The female policeman shook hands with Schiller and said, "The town has been a little mess recently. It's good for you to live here. It's better not to take your daughter to some remote places. Three people have disappeared."

Schiller looked a little worried, and he said, "Are all three people? Are they from other places? Or are there locals?"

"At present, they are all outsiders. However, because it is the season for purchasing agricultural machinery recently, many locals have not come back yet. It is impossible to confirm whether anyone has been killed."

The police sighed and seemed very sad. Schiller knew that in such a small place, the police were basically locals. The public security situation in the town was also closely related to their quality of life.

"I'll notice," Schiller said. "My daughter is very interested in aliens. But it's only a while, so we'll leave tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. There should be no danger."

The police nodded and said, "Don't blame me for being too talkative. There is a mother and daughter among the missing people. The daughter is about the same age as yours. We highly suspect that this is a serial murder case, but the police force in the town is insufficient. We have to wait for support."

"Before everything is revealed and the murderer is brought to justice, you must keep a close eye on your daughter. Don't have more tragedies."

Schiller nodded and watched the police leave.

And when he turned his head, he saw Joton standing behind him.

This should have been a pretty horrible scene, but because he was holding a lot of messy vegetables in his arms and grey on his hair and forehead, it looked a little funny.

"What did the police tell you?" Yoton asked.

"Nothing. It's just a reminder to my daughter and I to be safe. They said there was a mother and daughter in the missing person. Suspected that this was a serial murder case. Let's be careful."

Jodon nodded, and said nothing more. He took the basket and went to cook. Schiller took Elsa to the backyard to swing.

In fact, compared to swinging, Aisha prefers to chewing a swing. So no matter how high the swing is, she seems a little bored.

Just as Schiller wanted to take her back to the house to watch TV, he saw a black shadow flashing behind the fence on the right side of the backyard. Then two very slight knocks came from there.

Realizing that this might have been a sound made by someone on purpose, Schiller walked over and found that there was a man squatting at the place where the backyard fence and the wall of the house were connected, wearing a police uniform, the male policeman who stopped Schiller's car that day.

"Hello. Mr. Police Officer, what are you doing here?"

"I want to remind you." The other party lowered his voice, and he said, "Mr. Jorton, who invited you and your daughter to stay here, is likely a dangerous person. The disappearance that happened near the town may be related to him. You'd better leave here as soon as possible."

Schiller frowned and said, "Do you have any evidence?"

"If I had one, I'll arrest him. The investigation will take some time. Before we get support from the city, the police station will not allow us to act rashly. So this is just my personal suspicion."

"But you'd better listen to me. It's obvious that something was wrong with him. There was a big doubt about the case where his sister died. It was because the Yotons and his wife insisted on not pursuing it, so they didn't investigate. Can you understand what I mean. Right?"

"Okay, he just said he wanted to treat me and Aisha to dinner. I thought he was a good person."

"Don't eat anything he gave." The policeman said in a heavy tone, "get out of here as soon as possible and drive to town. There is more police force and will be safer."

At this moment, Schiller heard the door of the backyard being pushed open, probably because of Yoton. So he stood up and found that Yoton had come.

But the previous policeman had already left before he came. So he saw nothing.

"Professor, the meal is ready." Yoton said with a smile.

Schiller brought Elsa to the table. The meal was simple: a fresh vegetable salad, fried steak and mashed potatoes.

Although there is no complicated dish, it has a strong aroma and looks good. It seems that Yoton said he can cook, but he is not lying.

Schiller first put a little salad on his plate, and then filled Elsa's plate with vegetables, and told Elsa to eat more vegetables like a good father.

Elsa had stuffed half of the steak into her mouth and nodded while chewing. While Schiller began eating the vegetables on the plate.

"Don't add some salad dressing? Professor, our mayonnaise is made by our own..." Yoton put a bottle at Schiller's hand.

"No. I never eat any sauce." Schiller said while pushing the steak to Elsa. Elsa was not polite, and after eating his own portion in a few bites, he began to solve Schiller's portion.

"I think you can really try it. Mayonnaise is also vegetarian. It is guaranteed to taste very good."

"Can I taste it?" Elsa asked suddenly.

"Well, mayonnaise is high in oil and sugar, and may not be very healthy for children. What do you think? Professor?"

"Okay, Aisha. You can't eat more sweets. Eat the steak, and then we go to the wheat field to see if we can wait for the aliens. We've agreed that if you don't see anything tonight, we'll leave tomorrow morning."
