Peter's eyes widened, unable to understand how the door closed.

Tom knew that his subconscious actions just now had exposed him. Before Peter asked, he pretended not to know, leaned over to look at the woman's face, and at the same time cursed the system in his heart.

"What's wrong with you? Is the pig teammate specially cheating on me?"

The voice of the system is aggrieved and guilty: "It is a reminder to access mission-critical information. The default mode you set, if you turn it off, there will be no more."

"Turn it off," said Tom irritably, and then he raised his voice. "Sister Jenny?"

The woman who fell to the ground was Jenny. When Tom returned to the orphanage a few days ago, she was suspected of stealing by this woman.

"You know her?" Peter closed the window, and Tom stood on either side of the woman, blocking all possible escape routes for her.

"This is the nun from the orphanage." Tom's face was not very good, obviously recalling the bad memories this woman brought him, "Why are you lying in the orphanage at night? It's burned down like this." He Looking around, the room they were in was exactly the room where the nuns lived, but they didn't know if it belonged to Jenny.

"Tom?" Jenny was also surprised, "Where did you go? We couldn't find you anywhere, so we thought you..."

"Don't change the subject." Tom interrupted her impatiently, "Now I'm asking why you appear here in the middle of the night, what are you doing with me?"

"I just miss this place, come and take a look." The expression on Jenny's face was very aggrieved, "The orphanage where I lived for many years burned down, and now everyone is crowded in the government's relief housing, and the children are terrified. I rarely find time to…”

Tom blinked, and something seemed to activate in his mind.

The last time he came to the burnt orphanage, he found a cat puppet in his bed.

He has seen this puppet before, but although he has a vague impression, he doesn't remember where he saw this puppet.

Tom searched hard in his pocket for a long time, and took out the cat doll that he rubbed and stuffed into his trouser pocket.

He held up the cat puppet in front of Jenny and asked, "You put this here?"

A look of surprise flashed across Jenny's face, and then she pretended to be dazed: "No, what is this?"

Tom was about to blurt out "tell the truth", but Peter was still standing beside him. He was quite smart and must have discovered the abnormality of the door just now. If he found that he could control others to tell the truth, he would be even more suspicious.

Throwing the cat puppet aside, he squatted down and asked in a soft voice: "So you just missed the days in the orphanage, and you came back to experience it again. You don't know where this cat came from, right? Bar?"

Jenny nodded cautiously.

"I know, nun, you are devoted to the orphanage. What were you doing when the fire broke out?"

Recalling the memory, Jenny responded cooperatively: "I was still sleeping, I heard the screams and woke up and found that there was a fire. I have been busy getting the children out and fighting the fire."

"Is that so, nun, you are so virtuous." Tom complimented in a false and deadly tone, let alone Peter holding back a smile, even Jenny frowned.

"But we checked the surveillance, and there was a woman in the surveillance who ran from that direction after the orphanage caught fire. I happened to know her. Guess who it is?"

Tom grinned, and the two rows of small white teeth stood out in the dark night. Jenny shivered and said forcefully, "I don't know..."

Tom stretched out his hand to Peter, and Peter tacitly took out his mobile phone, called up the monitoring downloaded to the mobile phone, and handed the frame of Jenny's appearance to Tom.

Tom held the mobile phone in front of Jenny, and Jenny panicked when she saw it, and reached out to grab the mobile phone, but Tom quickly avoided it and returned the mobile phone to Peter.

"It seems that you recognized it too. It's you." Tom hooked the corners of his lips and stared at Jenny's eyes. "Now, Jenny, can you tell us why you lied?"

"I..." Jenny struggled, "I'm just afraid that you guys might misunderstand me. A friend came to see me that night. She lived on that street, so..."

But the result of insanity tells Tom that Jenny is still lying.In fact, in Jenny's memory, she was indeed called to the store by her friend that night, but the two of them had a dispute. Jenny's friend took out a weapon with a purple glowing object inlaid to attack Jenny. But Jenny avoided it.

Unexpectedly, this seemingly weak woman had such great strength. She not only dodged the attack, but also snatched her friend's weapon into her own hands, ran out of the store door, and fired a shot inside.

Unexpectedly, this shot did not know what was shot. When the shop exploded, part of the light was reflected and hit the orphanage directly.

"How did you fool the police?" Tom was interested.

The clues that he and Peter can think of and track down, the police will definitely find out, why is Jenny still swaggering...

Thinking of this, Tom understood.

Jenny is not swaggering in the orphanage reminiscing about the past, but... avoiding pursuit.

Maybe this is just a foothold. An abandoned orphanage that has been burned by fire is a blind spot for the police to think.

Ignoring Jenny, Tom couldn't wait to say to the system: "I have found out the truth about the fire in the orphanage, and even caught the murderer. What about the reward?"

Nagini was silent for a moment.

Tom was right, he did catch the murderer, but he bypassed the core of all events.

But in any case, he did solve the matter very quickly and did not do it. Nagini rewarded Tom as agreed. This time, the magic power returned to the body did not feel like last time, and Tom sighed comfortably.

Peter blinked and cast a strange look.

Regardless of Jenny's protest, Tom and Peter subdued her mercilessly, covered her mouth with a ready-made cat puppet, and threw it to the gate of the police station, in order to prevent being seen by the police before taking it for a record Wasted time, they knocked on the doorman's window and then ran away. It was already late at night, Peter was finally sleepy, and the two boys went home.

With the magical power of recovery, Tom felt very comfortable, and before Peter could speak, he jumped into Peter's arms consciously.

He is a mutated spider that can climb walls, so Peter has no choice but to work as a coolie, holding Tom up the wall and sending him to the window of his room.Tom grabbed the window frame and flipped in nimbly, then turned around and said good night to Peter.

Peter didn't go back to his room, but asked, "Do you remember that when Jenny wanted to run when we first entered the room, did the door close suddenly?"

Tom's heart skipped a beat. Sure enough, the one who should come still couldn't escape. He nodded: "I'm also very surprised what happened."

Originally wanted to ask Tom if it was your fault, Peter choked on Tom's preemptive strike, and didn't know what to say.

"I think the orphanage may have spirits." Tom flickered with a serious face, "Jenny burned down the orphanage, and the orphanage also wanted to bring her to justice, so help us lock her up."

Peter actually felt that he was reasonable...

There was no proof that Tom had made the door, so Peter said good night too, and crawled back to his room.

As soon as he opened the window and opened the tightly drawn curtains, Peter was startled and almost fell off the wall limply.

—Uncle Ben was sitting on Peter's bed, looking at him with disappointed and angry eyes.
