Monthly Calculation System in Pokémon

Chapter 324 Case Progress

"Boss, we have guests coming."

When the workers on the assembly line saw Carlos and his group, they turned their necks stiffly like wood, spoke stiffly, and then slowly moved their legs. The whole movement was like it was slowed down by twice.

"Kuuuuuu?"

At this moment, a fast figure suddenly appeared in front of them. Why is it called suddenly? Because his speed was like three times the speed, and he appeared in Carlos' face almost instantly.

"Um, what are you talking about? You're speaking too fast, I can't hear you clearly."

Carlos looked at the boss, who was wearing red clothes and had a pair of standard mustaches, with some embarrassment.

Carlos behaved properly, and with the personality of Edgar Linton, he looked like an elegant aristocrat. The boss in front of them thought they were here to buy a pocket watch, so he came to greet them.

"Ooooh! Sorry! I was thinking that a big shot like you would also do some time compression."

The boss in front of him took out a small tape recorder, and as he pressed the play button, the sound inside came out.

"Because I think that the long wait is too painful. After all, sometimes we have to spend five hours waiting for something. However, it is obviously only one hour. If we wait for the time, won't the remaining four hours feel extremely boring?

"Haha, indeed this is indeed my distress. I wonder what the name of this gentleman is?"

"Edgar, Edgar family..."

"Oh! So you are the heir of the Edgar family! I have heard of you for a long time. I wonder what brings you here?"

"Ah... my eldest brother, let me handle the recent famous Time Ripper incident. As you know, our Edgar family has a relationship with the Second Association. We still take such vicious incidents seriously."

"You see, I hired some closers from the Seventh Guild to help me solve the case."

Carlos pointed behind him, and the boss took a look and saw the uniforms of the Seven Associations, so he no longer suspected anything.

"I heard that you survived the Time Ripper, so I wanted to ask you about it."

"Oh, it was like this. I was rushing to attend a meeting. Halfway through, I suddenly realized that some things at home had not been dealt with. At that time, I wanted to observe the time under the clock tower. As a result, the Time Ripper came at this time."

"Is there a clock tower in Carlos' place? Why would he, the owner of a factory that produces watches, need to check the time?"

"You don't understand. These clock towers were designed by the head of Company A. The time there is equivalent to the time set by Company A. For example, the clone and the original cannot exist at the same time for more than seven days, and this seven-day concept is the fixed time of Company A."

"So you remember exactly what the Time Ripper looks like?"

"I don't remember. I was attacked for just a split second. Damn it! This guy actually robbed me of 100 hours of time. When I woke up, two days had already passed."

"What? 100 hours in two days? How rich must this guy be to waste time so extravagantly?"

The three little Ibrahimovics looked at the boss in front of them, and then looked at the poor workers tied to the assembly line. Now they finally understood what it meant that while the rich live in luxury, there are people freezing to death in the streets.

"Okay, we have a general understanding of the situation. Thank you for the information you provided. The Edgar family will remember the help you provided to us."

"It's my pleasure! Goodbye, Mr. Edgar! I'm just waiting for those people to paint my portrait. Really, those guys can't move faster. It's so boring."

"Mr. Edgar...how is it? What should we do next, Carlos Edgar?"

Gardevoir teased Carlos, while Carlos was thinking about what to do next. His only idea now was to go to the clock tower to see if there were any clues.

"Let's go to the clock tower and see if there are any clues at that guy's crime scene."

Little Mercury was the first to express his idea, and most people thought it was a good idea. Carlos also agreed. After all, they had no other choice now. There were too few clues, and they had no idea what the murderer would do next.

"Walk."

Everyone walked carefully through the alley. Fortunately, Carlos had known about T Nest before and had lived in T Nest for a period of time, otherwise it would be difficult to avoid the patrolling T Company personnel.

"There's an employee from Company T in front of us. Wait, something seems strange?"

Jiutian was looking at the employee standing in front of him and suddenly realized something was wrong. It seemed that this guy was just standing there without any intention of moving.

“This guy is…dead.”

Jiutian approached her cautiously while smoking a cigarette. As she swung the wrench at her, the wrench went straight through her body, as if the person in front of him was a projection of time.

"It looks like this guy is a victim of the Time Ripper. Well, this is the first time I've seen him in this state."

Carlos easily passed through her body with his hands. Time and space are similar. As long as there is a problem on one side, no one knows what will happen. However, Carlos now knows what will happen if time is robbed.

"Looking at this guy, it seems that he just faced the murderer, and was killed instantly as expected. There are no wounds and no struggle. He just stands there like a projector. What a scary guy."

Lucario looked carefully at the guy in front of him. To some extent, this guy was actually still alive. He was just robbed of his time. As long as he waited for an equal amount of time as the time he was robbed, perhaps he could recover.

But no one knows how long the wait will be. It could be a few days, weeks, months or even years. Any of these is possible.

"This guy seems to know the terrain here very well. The footprints on the ground are not dry yet. He must have just left. He is so familiar with the terrain here..."

"Now let's go back to the Holy Fool Society and ask if there are any other clues they can provide us. Maybe they have other clues."

"Let's go."

Everyone headed towards the hiding place of the Holy Fools, but when they were about to reach the Holy Fools, Carlos suddenly discovered something very bad. The shoe prints on the ground seemed very familiar to him, just like...

"Time Ripper!"
