After listening carefully to Klein, I asked a question:
"So, do you suspect that the Zyrell that detective sees is disguised by others?"
Ian took his brown dome hat and replied thoughtfully:
“This is a possibility, but I think it ’s too difficult, and it ’s too high to take great risks. The party is at night, the lights are not really bright, most of the people who can participate are detective, with keen observation Li detective, it is difficult to hide their eyes only by wigs, beards, cosmetics, etc. "
Perhaps some extraordinary ability can be done ... Just like Hunger's Squirming has ... Klein just had a small trap in the question just now, I want to learn from the content of the answer of the big boy Ian, the expression of face and the language of the body Determine whether he has been in contact with Extraordinary, and whether he has a certain understanding of the mysterious field.
The initial answer is no.
Ian saw Detective Moriarty nodded slightly and agreed with his own reasoning, so he continued:
"I believe that those detectives see Mr. Zyrell, but he is not free, under the close control of others, and unable to deliver a message for help. The reason why he does not respond to my contact is to let me Be alert, let me find someone to help him out. "
"A reasonable explanation." Klein let go of the hands it shook, and sat back a bit, making yourself look more relaxed and confident.
Ian was silent for more than ten seconds, and said slightly solemnly:
"I want to entrust you to investigate Mr. Zyrell to confirm his current condition, just need to confirm."
Considering that the other party is a semi-professional who collects intelligence and news for detective, Klein has a heartfelt relationship and smiles:
"So how much do you plan to pay? You should be very clear that this matter may be very dangerous."
Ian looked down at the pocket of his old coat in a subtle manner, and said with consideration:
“There are two ways, one is that I will directly give you enough rewards to make you satisfied with the rewards. Afterwards, whether the task is simple or difficult, it will be this amount, unless you suffer a relatively serious injury.”
"Second, I pay 5 pounds in advance, and wait for you to complete the commission, and then add fees according to the difficulty of the matter, but it is easy to cause disputes, even if there is a contract."
Klein pretended to be thinking, and after nearly thirty seconds, he said lowly:
"Maybe it can be done? You pay 5 pounds in advance and wait for the task to finish, then help me do three things. Rest assured, it will not be a difficult thing, all within your ability and will not let you It feels too difficult, this can be agreed in the contract. "
Ian frowned, immediately stood up, leaned forward, and extended his right hand:
"Okay!"
Klein shook hands with him, took a standard contract he had prepared from the coffee table, picked up a round belly pen, added all the details just discussed, and pressed the confirmed fingerprint.
After signing the contract, he gave the big boy Ian a stack of white paper, and the looks at partner wrote Detective Zyrell related information.
after a while, as he turned through these materials, he asked casually:
"If there is an emergency or if the situation of Zyrell is confirmed, how can I contact you?"
Ian pursed his mouth and did not speak for a long time. Until Klein looked up, he replied slightly stiffly:
"No need to contact me, I will show up at the right time."
He said nothing more. He pulled out a stack of thick banknotes from the pocket of the old coat. They seemed to be stacked layer by layer in the order of denomination from large to small, very neatly.
Ian first extracted three 1 denomination banknotes from the bottom, then counted 6 5shilling banknotes, and finally 10 10shilling banknotes.
Seeing the other party put the banknotes in full simultaneously, even the portraits of several kings must have their heads facing up, and there should be no mistakes, Klein suddenly became a little irritable.
This is the late stage of obsessive-compulsive disorder ... He silently sighed, received the reward from the other party.
According to his visual inspection, the remaining cash of Ian will not exceed 3 pounds.
It is estimated that all the savings are carried on my body ... If I just asked for more compensation, would he escape the bill in the end? His appearance is not like that kind of person, but you can't judge a book by its cover ... Klein folded the banknotes at random, stuffed it into his pocket, and did not manage to be neat, so he successfully saw Ian's expression slightly twisted.
"I strive to complete the investigation as soon as possible." Klein stood up and reached out, making a gesture of seeing off.
"Thank you for your help." Ian sincerely thanked you, because the other party obviously gave a "discount price."
Looking at the departure of a much older boy who is more mature than his real age, Klein touched his chin and silently muttered thoughtfully:
"This matter is deep in water."
"Ian has never mentioned what Detective Zyrell is investigating from the beginning to the end, and has told him what information to collect ..."
"Forget it, how much money to charge and how much to manage, I just need to confirm the current status of Zyrell."
He turned his body and walked back to the living room. He took out a 1/4 pence copper coin from his pocket.
When!
Copper coins rolled upwards, Klein pupils deepened, silently wondering if there are any extraordinary factors in this matter.
Then, his right hand spread out, trying to catch the falling bronze penny.
When! The coin ran across his fingertips and landed on the ground, rolling away far away.
This result means that divination failed.
"It seems that Ian conceals more things than I thought ... The information is so lacking that even the vague divination result ..." Klein tightened his lower lip inward, stepped forward, bent down to pick That copper coin.
…………
In the evening of the same day, in the early morning hours, Beckland bridge district No. 138 Qiangwei Long Street.
Klein changed to a cheap light blue worker costume, with black beard sticking to his mouth, chin and cheeks. At first glance, it had a rough and brutal taste.
He wore a dark peaked cap, and the brim was so low that he almost covered his eyes.
This kind of hat originally belonged to the hunter of Republic of Intis, and there is a certain difference from the traditional deer hunter hat of Ruen Kingdom, but it has recently become popular in the middle and low class of Beckland.
Hiding in the shadow of Intis parasol tree beside the road, Klein looks at the house on the opposite side with the help of elegant gas street lights.
That is the home of Zyrell.
This detective is a Nanville County person. His parents, relatives and friends are all over there. He is alone in Beckland and gradually gains some fame.
He is still a bachelor, and he only hires two temporary maids, that is, the kind who comes over every three days to clean up, regardless of food and accommodation.
At this time, the townhouse he rented had no light at all, and it was completely dark.
Klein unscrews the silver chain in the cuff of the left wrist, allowing citrine pendant to drop naturally.
"There is danger in it."
"There is danger in it."
......
After seven times in a row, he opened his eyes and saw spiritual pendulum turning clockwise, but at a slow speed and a small amplitude.
"It's dangerous, it's not big." Klein whispered, and reconfirmed the item such as tarot card, homemade talisman and sacred night powder.
After doing all this, he looked around and swiftly flashed across the board while the night was quiet.
Zyrell's home has no porch, no garden, no lawn, directly next to the street next to the road, Klein around the side, along the water pipe, easily climb to the small balcony of second floor drying clothes.
Following this, he took out a piece of tarot card, inserted it into the gap, and opened the door to the corridor.
According to the layout of the house drawn by Ian, Klein walked almost silently outside the bedroom of Zyrell.
He tapped his left tooth gently, opened spirit vision, and looked through the wooden door.
spirit vision can penetrate the barrier without spirituality to see the color of energy field, but this is closely related to its own level. Klein can currently be observed through the wooden door, but it ca n’t overcome the stone wall, and the sight will not be too clear.
In his sight, in the bedroom behind the door, there are three groups of human figures energy field, hazy colors, in different positions.
Always ambush three people ... In order to catch Ian, or someone else? The bedroom is not large ... Klein stands in the dark, calmly thinking about the observed results.
At this time, he suddenly retreated towards the balcony, his steps still very light.
Back on the balcony, Klein took out a silver sheet from his pocket.
This is "sleeping talisman" he tried in the afternoon.
He did not pray to Goddess of the Night, but held a ceremony with himself as the object of "Fool of another era", and then entered above the grey mist to respond.
Because this method is difficult to mobilize the power of the mysterious space of above the grey mist, Klein can only "respond" with its own spirituality, and the resulting talisman is worse than normal, but it is better than "I am in my name". The kind that came out was barely enough.
Looking around again, Klein covers his mouth and whispers an ancient Hermes word:
"Crimson."
After feeling the coldness of talisman, he moved quickly and silently to the door of the bedroom of Zyrell. While holding the handle, he poured spirituality into a silver sheet.
Squeak! Klein carefully twisted the handle and quietly pushed the door open a gap.
Next, he threw "sleeping talisman" in his hand.
After a little recovery, Klein closed the door again and started silently counting.
"3"
"2"
"1"
He slammed the door open and rolled in place.
Because they did n’t feel the movement of the three people, Klein stood up and began to look at the scene in the room through the scarlet moonlight that was illuminated through the window.
This is a normal layout bedroom with a bed, a row of wardrobes, a desk, a set of small sofas, and a coat rack.
On the other side of the bed is a man in a black jacket, who is sleeping soundly and sleeping soundly.
In addition, beside the small sofa, in front of the closet, there is another person, they all fell asleep.
After confirming the status of the three, Klein moved lightly, walked to the head of the bed, and bent over to find a few short tan hair.
According to the content written by Ian, Detective Zyrell is a man with short tan hair.
It should be right ... Klein whispered, holding the fallen hair, came to the small sofa position, slowly sat down, sitting in the dark with a little blush, planning to use dreamland divination Way to find Zyrell.
Looking back at the back of the sofa, he raised his corner of his mouth and laughed at himself silently:
"This is reasoning ..."
