Crazy Detective
chapter-2636

“In a coffee shop opposite the Royal Albert Hall in London, United Kingdom.”

“This is a list from 1994 to 2003,” Lee Bencheng showed Zhao Yu a picture on his phone.”According to their person in charge, this can only be traced back to 1994. Before 1994, the Royal Symphony Orchestra was performing in the Royal Theater, but the Royal Theater had been rebuilt, so a lot of information was lost …”

“It can’t be?” Zhao Yu grinned and said,”there were only two left ear cases in 1994 and 1995. On the list of people, there must be a lot of people with the same name, right?”

“Looking at the information in English, Zhao Yu couldn’t help but frown.”

“Don’t tell me you’ve already lost your patience!” Li Bencheng smiled calmly,”not to mention that I’ve gotten so many, even if there was only one, we’ve already knocked half the door to the truth!”

“I know,” Zhao Yu said unhappily.”We just need to find an old man on the list, then ask him face to face, and then we can find the suspect, right?”

“Isn’t that so?” Lee Bencheng raised the corner of his mouth,”if we find the murderer of the left ear case, we can find clues about the successor, and if we find clues, we can solve them earlier!”

“This way, I won’t have to worry about anything in the future, and I can live a stable life with my son!”

“Aiya, I’ve only realized it after I’m used to seeing big waves,” Lee Bencheng took a sip of fruit juice,”it’s true to be ordinary!”

“You’re so optimistic,” Zhao Yu said.”But why do I feel that the closer we get to the truth, the more dangerous it is?”

“Old Li, it’s always like this in movies. People often feel that they’re about to make it through, but they just lose their lives. You can’t just casually take a box lunch …”

“Eh? To get lunch boxes?” Li Bencheng didn’t understand.”What do you mean by ‘take a box meal’?”

“Oh, Zhao Yu then realized that the other party was a foreigner.”

“Alright,” Zhao Yu said, pointing to the mobile phone screen.”Who do you think we should start with?”

“Just pick one!” Li Bencheng smiled faintly,”these people aren’t young anymore. Just randomly pick one and you should know!”

“Alright then …” Zhao Yu said.”Let’s find the one closest to us first.”

“He looked at his watch and asked,”It’s already 10:30. They should have started their practice, right?”

“Albert, a violinist,” said Lee Bencheng.”I like this name. He’s 56 years old this year. It’s the 90s, so let’s start with him!”

“I …” Zhao Yu looked at the delicious food on the table,”I haven’t finished yet!”

“Alright,” Lee Bencheng looked out of the window and said,”you can eat slowly, let me do it!”

“After that, he picked up his phone and turned to leave the dining room. At the same time, he said with confidence,”When I come back, we’ll know who the murderer of the left ear case is!”

“Hey …”

“Looking at Lee Bencheng’s back as he left, Zhao Yu felt even more uneasy.”

“He had watched too many movies and knew that many detective plots would have accidents at the critical moment, especially when Lee Bencheng was acting a little strange today.”

“Combined with his experience in Tokyo, Zhao Yu felt that he couldn’t let Lee Bencheng go alone.”

“So, he quickly got up and wanted to give chase.”

“However, just as he was getting up, he suddenly heard a waiter behind him say,”

“Hey, Victor, it’s already 10:30. Why are you drinking? If your guild leader finds out about this, he’ll definitely fire you!”

“After arriving London, Zhao Yu had kept the simultaneous translator on and stayed on the English Channel, so he could understand everything that was said.”

“With more than 1000 points, he could keep the simultaneous translator on almost every day. He was not short of points now, so he kept it on.”

“After hearing this, he keenly felt that the person the waiter was referring to might be the musician of the band.”

“Thus, he took a step back.”

“However, just in case, he still used an emergency evacuation ball and let Lee Bencheng use it from a distance.”

“In this way, the ball could save his life at least once.”

“If something really happened, he wouldn’t have died.”

“After using it, Zhao Yu saw that there was a silver-haired old man sitting at a table not far behind him.”

“The old man didn’t order anything. He just sat there and read the newspaper. At the same time, he held a silver wine pot and poured wine into his mouth while reading the newspaper.”

“I’m an old member of the band. The leader has no right to fire me,” the old man said to the waiter with a smile.”Child, do you know? Symphony requires more passion than any other music. Sometimes, drinking wine will help me better, hehe …”

“But you should at least order something, right?” The waiter didn’t say this clearly. Instead, he bit his lips and mumbled,”the salary is so high, but he’s so stingy. He doesn’t even give a tip …”

“Then, the waiter left, but Zhao Yu came up to him from behind.”

“Oh, so you’re the master of the Royal Symphony Orchestra!” Zhao Yu spoke excitedly in fluent English,”I saw your performance a long time ago. It was really impressive … Wahaha …”

“Mm …” The old lady glanced at Zhao Yu and asked,”you are …”

“I … I’m a fan of the Royal Symphony Orchestra!” He said. Zhao Yu naturally sat next to the old lady.”I didn’t expect to see you here. It’s a pleasure to meet you!”

“Then, Zhao Yu extended his right hand.”

“That’s where we work.” The old man shook his hand, but he was still alert.”The coffee here is very authentic. It would be a great honor if we didn’t see one or two!”

“Haha, you’re so funny,” Zhao Yu laughed,”can you believe it? Actually, I’ve only seen your performance, but I can’t name you! You are …”

“Zhao Yu wanted to trick the old man into telling him his name, but the old man just looked at Zhao Yu indifferently and remained silent.”

“Haha,” Zhao Yu laughed and went straight to the point.”To be honest, I’ve seen almost all of the Royal Symphony orchestra’s overseas performances in the 1990s. I was still young at that time, and my father took me there!”

“I remember there’s a musician in the band with an eardisability who played very well. Do you remember him?”

“You … Did you drink something that has expired?” The old man turned around, unscrewed the bottle and took another sip, then ignored Zhao Yu.”

“No, no, no. Seoul and Tokyo in 1991, New Delhi in 1992, New York and Amsterdam in 1993, City M in 1994, I’ve seen them all …”

“The person with the ear disability was always there, Oh … Oh … I understand now,” Zhao Yu said deliberately.”At that time, you were not there …”

“Kid, do you know who I am?” The old lady turned around, glared at Zhao Yu, and asked,”do you know what instrument I play?”

“You … Mm …” Zhao Yu quickly started to observe.”

“There were no calluses on the old man’s hands, so it shouldn’t be string music like the violin. The way he played the drum didn’t seem like it either, so … It could only be pipe string music?”

“What … What … What are you bragging about? Black tubes? Clarino or saxophone?”

“Hahahaha …” The old man laughed and gestured with his hands,”I’m the conductor of the band! I’ve been with the Royal Symphony Orchestra for almost my entire life!”

“But I’ve never heard of anyone with a disability in their ears! Think about it, if you have a disability in your ears, how can you … Mm … Mm …”

“At this point, the old man paused, and his eyes became misty, as if he had thought of something.”

“You don’t say … At that time, there was really someone in the group who had hearing problems …” The old man looked at Zhao Yu curiously.”But … How did you know?”
