Emlyn glanced at Ian, raised his hand and pinched the tip of his lower nose, laughed:
"It seems that you do not understand, well, the simpler description is to help me collect information about foreigners from southern continent, especially from Star Plateau and Perth River Valley."
"What is the specific information? There are quite a few purebred southern continent in Beckland, and people with corresponding bloodlines can often be seen." Ian calmly asked his question because he was angry at being despised.
Emlyn smiled and said:
"The more abnormal kind, the sneaky kind, the mysterious kind, you should understand what I am talking about."
"There are definitely many highlanders and river valley people who meet your description. They are either servants, workers, thieves, or gangsters in Beckland, and those behind meet the conditions of abnormal behavior and sneaky mystery. Ian sincerely pointed out the unrealistic requirements of Emlyn.
Emlyn has been prepared for this for a long time, with an insignificant smile, nodded said:
"In this way, all the qualified information is given to me, and I will do my own screening. Well, this commission pays you 50 pounds as the basic cost of the preliminary investigation. The follow-up will be based on how many pieces of intelligence collected are valuable. Calculate, pay 20 pounds more each. "
"Who has the value?" Ian thought for a few seconds and asked.
He has 50 pounds of income in the early stage, and the commission can actually be received. This money is enough to hire a dozen people to investigate from eastern district to Chowod District for half a month from morning to night.
He does not care how much he can earn from the 50 pounds, because many people depend on him to survive, and they must be arranged for them to do some paid things from time to time, otherwise he will not be well informed.
Emlyn looked at Ian and sighed said:
"Of course it is me, you should be very clear about my credibility."
"Moriarty great detective didn't tell me this ..." Ian whispered, sighed, "Well, the cooperation last time was quite pleasant, I chose to believe you."
Emlyn nodded in satisfaction, took out the wallet, and counted the banknotes with a total denomination of 50 pounds.
In the process, thinking of his savings is only 407 pounds, Emlyn was a bit reluctant.
It ’s now £ 357 ... He took back looks at ’s bills of sight and handed the cash in his hand to Ian.
He did not stay any longer, put on top hat, walked out of the pool room, and left Hero Bar.
On the street, Emlyn releases the finger holding the nose, looks up at the burning clouds, his expression gradually sinks, and he silently says:
"This Resentful Soul is not here ... Where did you go?
"Well, Ian behaves like he has never heard of Rose School, but his heartbeat speeded up and betrayed him ...
"Also, he did n’t even ask if Sherlock Moriarty had returned to Beckland this time, and he was not worried at all ... could it be that Sherlock had returned to Beckland and had met him?"

Rhosid Islands, "City of Generosity" Bayam.
Outside a house near the port with a gas wall lamp on it, "Admiral of the Stars" Cattleya walked into the corner of no one with Frank Lee with his shirt sleeves up and showing brown sweat. looks at grew out of a dark place.
This is the "Bloodless" Heath Doyle that is responsible for monitoring Artisan Sharf. He is thin and tall, and his skin is pale to a little transparent, and he looks weak when the wind blows.
"Is there anything abnormal during this time?" Cattleya pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose.
Heath Doyle un'ed and said:
"On the third day after you left, a stranger came to visit Sharf and stayed for about a quarter of an hour. I was not close and I was afraid of being found.
"According to the command of the captain, I let my followers follow the stranger, but I was dumped."
"What does that stranger look like?" Cattleya nodded slightly.
Heath Doyle took a piece of raw beef from a small leather bag around the waist. The blood on it was still fresh, but there was no pollution to touch any place. It seemed to have become a pure solid.
Then, the piece of beef melted in the hands of Heath Doyle, and the water dripped to the ground like a lifelike wriggling, depicting a portrait.
"This is the effect I want!" Frank Lee's eyes looks at, expressing his thoughts very excitedly.
Heath Doyle, under his gaze, quite evasive, pointing to the ground while leaning slightly:
"Probably looks like this."
At this time, a **** scroll has been formed. The main body is a man with two whiskers and facial features close to the Perth River Valley race. His biggest feature is that three earrings are inlaid on each ear.
"Earrings made of gold are slim and have no fat, but they are healthy." Heath Doyle added.
Cattleya immediately retracted the line of sight looking towards the ground:
"Then what?"
Heath Doyle and un'ed:
"No one will come to visit Sharf, except for the temporary servants and chefs he hired. I have arranged for the investigation, and they are all no problem.
"Sharf will always take a walk in the evening every day, find a street prostitute to go home, and let the other party leave until dawn ... I have been following him, and I have not found any strange people on his way."
"He has been acting normally this time?" Cattleya asked frowning slightly.
In her opinion, no anomaly is the biggest anomaly!
After all, this involves Rose School members who believe in "Primordial Moon".
Heath Doyle definitely nodded:
"Yes."
Cattleya looked sideways at the main entrance of the house and pondered for a moment before saying:
"I originally planned to use extraordinary ability to sneak in, control Sharf at the fastest speed, and take him away to avoid accidents, but now it seems that the best way is to knock on the door directly."
Unknown dangers are the most frightening.
"Captain, I'm with you." Frank Lee thought he had been busy with experiments recently, and hadn't done what first officer should have done for a long time, he quickly asked.
Cattleya took off the heavy glasses and hung it on the belt of the black wizard robe, while nodded said:
"Okay."
After she finished, she left the dark corner and walked to the main entrance of Artisan Sharf's residence.
As she approached, she looked up at scarlet moon, which penetrated the clouds at high altitude, bent her fingers, and tapped the door three times.
It was n’t long before a footstep approached, and the main door opened with a creak.
Artisan Sharf has no significant changes compared to last time. It is still lean and black, with puffy eyes. The brown pupils is a smile that is hard to squeeze out:
"admiral, what's going on this time?"
He stood at the door, blocking the light of the gas wall lamp behind him, making this area look dark and dim, making him seem to be immersed in the shadows.
Cattleya stared at him for a few seconds before slowly speaking:
"I have new ideas and intend to make you my crew."
Her feet were motionless, with no intention of entering the door.
The expression of Artisan Sharf is distorted, and the tone suddenly becomes a little eerie:
"Why?"
Cattleya ’s eyes suddenly froze slightly, and then slowly spoke:
"Because I am a pirate."
Pirates do n’t need a reason, they just do it if they want to.
Sharf face muscle twitched, and a little smile appeared in pupils:
"I can be your Sailor, but as a Artisan, I can still play my role in a big city."
"I agree with you." Cattleya disintegrates each other's will to resist, "but before that, you need to stay on my" The Future "for a while and be a companion with others."
The look of Sharf slowly became cold, and his voice responded slightly misty:
"I'm afraid I can't control myself, I have a strong desire to reproduce every day ..."
"Strong desire to reproduce?" Frank Lee heard his eyes light up next to him, and then asked in confirmation.
Sharf startled didn't even know how to nod, but shook his head.
Frank immediately looked at "Admiral of the Stars" Cattleya and asked with a little excitement:
"Captain, is this the experimental assistant for me?
"I like his feature so much!"
Cattleya was silent for a few seconds, nodding slowly and solemnly:
"Yes."
Frank immediately showed a hearty smile and extended his right hand to Artisan Sharf:
"Nice to meet you, self introduction, first officer of The Future, Frank Lee."
Sharf ’s expression returned to normal, shook hands with each other in doubt, and then said:
"Really only stay on" The Future "for a while?"
"I guarantee with my reputation." Cattleya responded cordially, and silently added a sentence in his heart:
It wo n’t take long for the queen to personally deal with your problem ...
"Okay, I can't beat you anyway." Sharf shrugged. "Please allow me to pack up my personal item."
He then took two steps back, turned his body, and walked towards the stairwell at the end of the hall.
Walking and walking, he suddenly paused and turned his back to Cattleya and Frank Lee, said lightly and slowly:
"The moonlight tonight is as beautiful as ever, isn't it?"
Did not wait for a response, he went on and disappeared into the stairs.
It was only then that the dignity on Cattleya's face gradually became apparent.
After Sharf opened the door, she has seen the other party ’s abnormality with her own eyes:
If the past Sharf, spiritual body is a normal human race, then it is now a Siamese!
Under the moonlight, this "conjoined person" is growing rapidly.
This is not a problem that I can solve. I have to write to the queen to tell the queen, and do n’t forget the Gehrman Sparrow meeting request ... Cattleya sighed silently and subconsciously raised face.
At high altitude, the clouds are thin, and the round scarlet moon is bright and quiet.
