Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!

Late night, 7 Pinster Street.

Leonard Mitchell sat on the chair, raised his feet, reached the desk, and rested on the edge.

Next, he leaned back and pressed the wooden joint creak, and his breath gradually became longer.

I do n’t know how long it took, his eyelids drooped, covering his eyes.

At this time, the spirit of Leonard has come to a world of grey mist, but the place it is still in is its own bedroom.

He flew to the window and saw that the rich grey mist enveloped the nearby block and continued to extend outward, as if to cover the entire Beckland.

The gas street lights next to the street, the warm fire in different houses, are all very dim at this time, and they can only illuminate the small area around them, and they are stained with a little haze.

At the same time, a group of illusory elliptical light spheres, hidden or present, interlace and cover a house, seeming to be the source of their existence.

This is the city in the eyes of Nightmare.

Leonard jumped out of the window in the form of Nightmare and flew to No. 17 Chowod District Minsk Street according to the previous investigation.

He didn't break in directly, and fell to the opponent's door in the thick fog, politely ringing the doorbell.

In the voice of "Bugu" "Bugu", Starling Sammer in a nightdress opened the door.

As she fanned the silver court feathers to her chest, she asked confusedly and doubtfully:

"Which one are you looking for?"

She was the landlord when Klein played Sherlock Moriarty, a lady blond hair blue eyes about 30 years old.

Leonard has put on the black and white Ruen police uniform at this time, and at random showed the following documents:

"Do you know Sherlock Moriarty?"

Because in the dream, Starling responded slowly, it took a few seconds to say:

"Is he what happened?"

At the same time she asked back, under the influence of Leonard, she naturally showed Sherlock Moriarty in her side:

Wearing a half-height silk top hat, wearing a double-breasted long dress, wearing gold-rimmed glasses on the nose bridge, a beard with a circle around his mouth ...

This is consistent with the Sherlock Moriarty obtained before Leonard, so there is no doubt, just say:

"He is involved in a case and is under investigation.

"I hope you can cooperate with our work."

"Okay, okay." Starling wanted to raise his chin, but I was a little scared somehow.

Leonard thought for a second:

"When will he rent the house?"

"Early September last year." Starling recalled the next.

Leonard continued to ask:

"What do you know about him? Or, what kind of person is he in your heart?"

Regarding this, Starling seems to have considered the answer long ago:

"He is from Midsea County and has an accent over there. He is a very capable detective. He once helped Mary solve her husband ’s affair. However, his income is not high, and he ca n’t even afford a full-time chore maid. I can only let my maid help part-time ... My child told me that he is a storyteller, especially good at detective. This may be the reason why he chose that industry ... "

Without giving Leonard the opportunity to interrupt, she continued talking:

"He is not as rude as the general detective. He has studied grammar school and history, and the most enviable point is that he was thanked by Mary and joined Klag Club. There are people with great identity. I used to Been there a few times ...

"Later, he seemed to be famous in the detective circle, often private detective came to him ..."

Leonard sounded impatient and could n’t help raising rubbed one's temples.

From Mrs. Starling, he did n’t get any useful information. Except that Sherlock Moriarty ’s economic situation is not very good and he is good at telling the story of detective, the rest are within the scope of intelligence he investigated before, and he even knows Sherlock Moriarty has a good relationship with Isengard Stanton.

Next, I'll check it out from the Klag Club who have a good relationship with Sherlock Moriarty ... Patience listened to Mrs. Starling's nagging, Leonard immediately thanked each other and left her dream.

…………

160 Berklund Street, in the residence of Dawn Dantes.

In the hall where hundreds of guests can dance, Klein is dancing with a lady in her thirties.

This is the etiquette teacher found by Walter, called Vannah Haessen.

She has a long-featured female name, but she is not ordinary. The facial features are only moderate to upper, but she is very temperamental and has a charm in every move.

According to Walter introduction, she was born in a baron family and was well-educated since childhood, and later entered the court as a female officer until she got married.

Because her family has fallen and her husband ’s financial situation is average, she who believes in Goddess of the Night chooses to become a ceremonial tutor, often going to different noble or rich families to teach their children.

Although the housekeeper did n’t say so, Klein knew that it could n’t perform too badly in front of this lady, otherwise gossip would be basically saved.

—— One of the important paths for nobles, rich people, and other high society people to inquire about a person's situation is through common acquaintances. At some point, the interaction between servants also has this meaning.

Foot moves, body shakes, black hair lightly pulled Vannah approvingly nodded:

“Mr. Dantes, it ’s really hard to imagine that you have n’t learned such dance steps before.

"In less than two quarters, you will be as skilled as a nobleman who has received similar education since childhood."

"Yes, you taught it well." Klein smiled modestly, with a gentle expression, but no publicity.

Having the balance and coordination ability of Clown, dancing is a very simple thing for him.

Vannah lowered his head and chuckled:

"You are a gentleman who makes women happy."

She then lifted her light brown eyes, sweeping the temples of Dawn Dantes doped silver wire and the blue eyes.

"This is the best compliment I have heard today." While Klein responded with a smile, his steps did not stop, and he took a Vannah to turn around lightly. Not far away, the band invited to make beautiful melody Continue to echo in the hall.

He intends to be familiar with Vannah, not only to promote gossip, but also because the other party has served as a court female officer.

Vannah corrected a minor error of Dawn Dantes:

“Invite ladies to dance, not just to dance, but to have the necessary conversation, not like two human puppets, unless you are both immersed in the music, immersed in the rhythm of the dance and do not want to speak, of course, this is also a communication , The communication of the soul.

"When talking, you must be implicit. Here is Ruen, not Intis.

"Simply put, do n’t just do n’t be rude and make yourself look elegant.

“I ’ll give you an example. If you want to compliment a woman ’s perfume, you ca n’t directly say how good it smells, or ask which perfume and give it a compliment. You have to think of a more subtle meaning. Well, you can say this: I seem to be on the outskirts of spring.

"Of course, this must match the characteristics of the perfume."

Without a sense of literature, should n’t I say "tonight is really beautiful"? Klein slandered with a Japanese-style implied abdomen and laughed at himself:

"Thank you for the compliments that you did n’t just say about me are not elegant enough."

Vannah's smile deepens:

"Mr. Dantes, do you know what a gentleman is very popular with women in social situations?"

"I don't know." Klein shook his head calmly.

Vannah said with a smile:

"The second most popular are men who make women think he is smart."

"First?" Klein asked in coordination.

Vannah glanced at him:

"The first popular are men who make women feel smart."

Speaking of this, she smiled and didn't speak again, Klein understood her hidden praise at once.

This is the subtlety of Ruen style ... Unlike the Intis side, they all rushed to the lower body ... Well, this is all reported in newspapers and magazines, what the real Intis social field looks like, ca n’t be based on it Certainly, anyway, the two countries always defame each other ... Great Emperor's era, it is in line with that description ... Klein nodded suddenly.

The two-hour etiquette course came to an end in such a harmonious atmosphere. Klein took the butler Walter and the personal servant Richardson to the teacher Vannah Haessen to the door and gave her a small gift.

That is Derim's "Moonlight" perfume, which is doped with gray amber and is quite expensive.

As for the specific amount, Klein is not clear, because the housekeeper Walter is responsible for the purchase, and the expenditure goes from housekeeper. When the 1,000 pounds are spent almost, Tanaia will only take the bills and forms when new funds are needed. Ask him to review.

The reason why Klein knows which company and perfume is because Mr. Butler told him in advance, so that when Ms. Vannah asked, he did n’t know anything, and it did n’t seem sincere enough.

From these details, he deeply understands the role of a good housekeeper.

looks at ’s satisfied Ms. Vannah Haessen left, Klein resisted the urge to rub forehead and sincerely sighed in her heart:

"It's more tiring than fighting Extraordinary. You must always pay attention to your actions and consider your words ... I must get rest."

At this moment, Walter wearing white gloves stepped forward:

"Sir, since you are making rapid progress in etiquette learning, you can advance the rest of the courses."

"What course?" Klein had a headache.

"History, international politics, philosophy, music, and common sense of golf, horse racing, hunting and other sports ..." Walter answered meticulously.

"Philosophy?" Klein asked a little stunnedly.

Walter nodded:

“This is one of the easiest topics to talk about in high society. You do n’t need to have a very in-depth study, but at least you need to know what others are discussing, and know that the sources of pragmatism philosophy are Conciso, Mared, and Patterson, not Mister Russell Great Emperor, knew that it was Lormi who proposed 'life is free'.

"When many rich people enter the upper class for the first time, they are always prone to make mistakes in this respect. They are used to pushing philosophical ideas that they do not know to Mister Russell Great Emperor."

Klein was said to have more headaches, and forced to laugh:

"I haven't had anything lately, except you can take a nap and go to church, you can arrange the class at any time."

…………

In a dark room, the envelope floated, opened by itself, and shook out the paper.

The silhouette of Sharon wearing a small soft cap was outlined next to it, holding the stationery and reading it carefully.

She immediately wrote a reply, arranged a ceremony, and began to summon Sherlock Moriarty messengers.

During this process, she did not forget to put a gold coin.

Soon, Sharon finished reading the mantra, and saw the candle expand and become infected with dark green.

Renette Tinichole carrying four blond hair, red eyes heads figured out of candlelight and came to Sharon.

Sharon's eyes were stagnant, and human puppet-like face suddenly had a strong emotional change.

She blurted out:

"Teacher!

"You are not already ..."
