Demon Hunter and His Hut

Chapter 57 Swamp Town

"Not yet because of Sherman's death."

Andreen complained.

"Isn't the murderer caught?"

Roger was slightly taken aback.

"That Ivy."

"We were just suspicious at first. It was a routine investigation, but for some reason, she ran away as soon as she saw us."

"Almost all the police in the town were dispatched to track it down, and they passed through several towns along the way, but found nothing."

"In fact, when the other party escaped for the first time, it was impossible to hunt down, but Shehirman is a celebrity in the town after all, and the pressure on him is relatively high. Even if he pretends to be, he can only continue to pursue."

It can be seen that Andreen is very angry at this useless effort.

"Forget it, tell you what to do."

"How is your body?"

Roger came back to his senses, "It's much better, maybe he accidentally caught a cold."

"Time flies so fast, and in the blink of an eye, it's the annual Fish-Man Festival." Andreen's eyes flashed, as if remembering something.

"This is your first vacation since coming to Baytown, any thoughts?"

"The fish-man festival is very lively here every year."

"Uh……"

Roger hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I was planning to communicate with you. There is a classmate in the class, Thomas, his uncle has a lakeside holiday house in Marsh Town, and he wants to invite me to go with him..."

"Swamp Town?"

Andreen frowned, but she quickly relaxed, "It's rare that you meet new friends. It's better to go out for a walk. How many days are you planning to go?"

"Two or three days at most."

"The time is just right. After returning, I should be able to participate in the town's festival. Not only the residents of Bay Town, but also people from other surrounding towns will come to participate."

"It's a long way from here to Marsh Town. How do you plan to get there?"

"It's just the two of you driving, I'm not worried."

Andreen's meticulousness warmed Roger's heart, but there was no way, he couldn't confess to Andreen.

"Mr. Henrik, do you remember him?"

"The one from the Wildlife Conservation Society?"

Roger nodded, "Thomas' father knows him, and he happens to be going to Swamp Town. We can take his car."

"This way I can rest assured." Andreen smiled comfortably, "If only Amanda was half as sensible as you."

Faced with this kind of question, Roger really didn't know how to interface, so he could only rack his brains and reply, "Amanda she actually..."

"You don't need to say, I know her, she is a good child."

"It's just a few things back then..."

Andreen hesitated, just then, with a soft sound, Amanda and Jack pushed open the door and walked in.

"Amanda, this is my last ultimatum, two newest toys, if you don't promise me, I'll put you and... um..."

Jack's mouth was blocked suddenly, he struggled violently, but as soon as he looked up, he saw Andreen sitting at the dining table.

Amanda gave him a hard look.

"What's the matter?" Andreen asked curiously.

"Oh, nothing..."

Little Jack rolled his eyes, then opened his hand and rushed towards Andreen. At this time, acting like a spoiled child was the best way to divert his attention.

After dinner, Roger returned to the room and saw the extra stack of banknotes on the table, and his heart couldn't help but warm.

A woman raises two children, and the family's conditions are not particularly good. Now adding him...

"We have to find a reasonable way to make money."

In the future, when the level is upgraded, buying new real estate may also be a lot of expenses.

After a night of silence, Roger did not continue to practice, but slept well.

In the early morning of the third day, the whistle of a car came from downstairs.

Roger got dressed, checked his backpack for the last time, and hurried downstairs to the top of the stairs. He happened to see Henrik looking like a gentleman, talking to Andreen.

"Good morning, you look very good." There was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

After not seeing him for a few days, he felt that Roger had changed a lot.

"I'll trouble you along the way."

"This is what I should do."

After some greetings, Roger took his breakfast and got into the car.

"Is the Hunter Guild so shabby? Or is it that you can only fit such a car at your level?"

Roger groaned while stuffing the food.

"Low-key, we're investigating, not picking up girls."

"What is the specific incident?" Not counting the Sherman Manor incident two days ago, this was Roger's first time participating in the Witcher mission.

"A haunted manor..."

Henrik suddenly closed his mouth in the middle of his words, Roger turned his head, Amanda was walking over with a tangled face on his back.

"Hello, is there any space in the car?"

She glanced at Henrik, and her eyes finally fell on Roger's face.

"I originally made an appointment with Betty to go to the beach, but she was temporarily busy and couldn't leave, so I planned to go to Swamp Town to see her. I heard that you are going there too..."

Mawson glanced back at Henrik.

Your own girl solves it by herself.

Roger read the meaning in Henrik's eyes.

"Mr. Henrik, is it still convenient in the car?"

Roger asked pretendingly.

"It's okay, the four of us are just right."

"Thank you so much, Mr. Henrik!"

Amanda thanked him loudly.

With other people around, the two of them couldn't continue discussing the mission. The vehicle started, circled around to pick up Thomas, and then drove out of Bay Town along the road.

The four people in the car had their own thoughts. Thomas was naturally tricked out by Roger. Where does he have any relatives in Marsh Town? As for the so-called lakeside holiday house, it was actually the place where Roger rented in advance.

Along the way, Thomas didn't speak, and he held an animal illustrated book with relish. On the way, Amanda made a few calls and seemed to have an appointment with Betty for a meeting place.

In terms of area, Marsh Town is the largest town under the city of Bordeaux, and its actual area even exceeds the urban area.

Within the jurisdiction of the town, there are large and small swamps and lakes, which used to be the Faku colony.

The local population is mixed, with blacks occupying an absolute population advantage. In some remote villages, some customs and habits of the tribal period are even retained.

More xenophobic than the people here in Baytown.

There is nothing to do along the way. When you are close to Marsh Town, you can see lakes and large wetlands with regional characteristics in the distance.

Entering the town, Henrik first sent Amanda to a high tower in the center of the town, where a black girl was fiddling with her cell phone boredly.

Compared with the last time we met, Betty seemed to have changed a lot. Her black and white eyes became brighter at this time, and she seemed to have completely gotten rid of her previous experience.

After a few greetings, everyone said goodbye to each other.

"It's good to see you!" The two girls hugged together.

"You said you had something important to tell me?"

Amanda looked curious.

Betty nodded.

"Trust me, this is the truth you've been looking for, and it will turn your worldview upside down!"
