Chapter 655 (1/2)
On the Colonel's desk was a set of ornaments, a row of hanging balls, which had been touching each other through the conversion of kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy.
These little balls constantly collide, making a slight ”dada” sound, like the gears of a clock as it rotates.
The atmosphere in the office was deadlocked because of Howard's speech. The Colonel's expression at this time was like eating stool, and his facial features were extremely distorted.
His white hair was shaking, as if shaken with anger at the suggestion to ”go to the police.”.
Howard, on the other hand, has simply sat down on the side of the sofa, legs on the coffee table, from the suit to take a cigar to smoke.
He had come to understand that as long as he stayed in the Caspian camp headquarters, he would be safe.
People who want to kill him rely on guns, and here, SSR has more guns.
”Captain, are you looking for me?” At this time, the arrival of a person diluted the embarrassment. It was a young man in a suit and waistcoat and a white coat: ”ah, Dr. stark, it happens that you are here too.”
He had short blond hair, a moustache very similar to Howard's, and a warm smile on his face.
Before the words fell, he opened the door and came in, as if unaware of the atmosphere. He said hello to Howard and chatted happily.
Howard's mustache cocked and twisted his head to one side: ”Dr. Richards, you've done me a terrible job. What is the blood sample you gave me? Now the assassins are going to ambush in my toilet
Nathaniel scratched his head. He put his hand around Stark's shoulder. He knew Howard wasn't really angry. He just wanted to know what was going on.
The curiosity of the researchers, and Howard's hard spoken character, became such words that Nathaniel could understand.
”I didn't know this was going to happen, Howard. What did you find out? Are blood samples and tissue sections interesting? ”
Howard wiped his hand on his trousers and leaned against the sofa. ”I've given this to Arnim. I've met some charming ladies recently. They love physics very much and they always pester me with questions. I'm so busy.”
”Really? That's wonderful, Dr. stark. ”
Nathaniel did not doubt Howard's words at all, but showed a happy smile, as if he really saw that there will be several rising physics stars in the future.
Su Ming stood in the corner of the room with his arms in his arms. In a way, Howard didn't lie. The ladies asked him about the physics of friction, piston motion, fluid mechanics, etc.
But now the problem is that 084 items are missing and Howard was assassinated because of his blood sample. Although the two things were not done by the same group, the time is very close. Su Ming doesn't think it is a coincidence.
Despite hearing a lot of physics jokes, Nick Frey remained expressionless, while Nathaniel kept a warm smile and occasionally answered Howard seriously.
He really thought Howard was talking about mechanics.
”Dr. Richards, can you tell me where that blood sample came from?” Looking at Howard's shameless use of various physical phenomena to metaphorize the incident, Su Ming still put in a word.
”Oh, Hello, I'm sorry I didn't notice any guests.” Nathaniel saw Sumin. He nodded with a smile and straightened his hair. ”I got that blood sample from a corpse.”
”Where is the body?” Su Ming found that Nathaniel seems to be a natural fool now? Is the mind on scientific research?
”It was a friend who asked me to investigate. One night, the body suddenly arrived at my door. It scared me.”
”How do you know that the body was asked to investigate, not some tramp who froze to death at your door?” Su Ming asked again.
Nathaniel patted his head. He picked up the wine bottle on the tea table and poured wine for himself and Howard. They cheered happily: ”because the body is wearing very high-end clothes, and there is a letter on the chest.”
”Letter?” Frey raised one eyebrow.
”Well, here.” Nathaniel took a crumpled piece of paper from his white coat pocket and handed it to Frey with a smile.
Nick Frey glanced at the death knell, which made a gesture of invitation to himself to turn it on.
There are some unknown Brown marks on the yellowish paper, which look like a circle left by a coffee cup. The ink marks have dragging marks, indicating that the paper is closed immediately after writing the letter.
It was a letter rather than a note or note, because it contained only one sentence in beautiful Gothic style, and Frey read it out like a robot.
”Investigate the body, or die, thank you.”
Frey snapped the paper down on the table, bent down, held the coffee table in both hands, and looked down at Dr. Richards, pressing him through body language.
”This is a threatening letter! It's coercion and blackmail. Why don't you report it to the top? ”Nathaniel, who was drinking to Howard, was stunned and blinked. He looked at the colonel and then at Howard. At this time, stark made an expression of helplessness to him.
”Is this a threatening letter?”
