In the dark room, a dark figure sat in the darkness.
Sitting alone.
Only repeated whispers remained in the air: "no... why not..."
Just then, the light suddenly rose. It's like a hole in a dark and closed world. The wall light outside the hole shines in and also shines on the gray and gloomy heart.
The shadow looked up. The source of the light was because the door was opened. A man in a white bear doll came in with an oil lamp emitting a faint yellow light.
The light of the flame in the oil lamp dissipated the darkness. Accompanied by the sound of footsteps, finally stopped in front of the shadow.
"Lord redhead." A low voice came out of the white bear's mouth.
The light then shone in front of the shadow, and the flamboyant red hair glittered in the dim yellow light.
"Why are you here?" Hughes's voice was a little hoarse.
White bear: "I saw that the adult's Alchemy puppets have returned and haven't been sent out again, so I thought..." maybe I've finished investigating the neighborhood.
Hughes naturally understood what the white bear had said.
"No, I haven't found any energy fluctuations within the limits that the alchemy puppet can control." Hughes: "he's not around."
The white bear also guessed the result. He hesitated for a moment: "what should I do now? My sister she..."
Even if there was the stimulation of the white bear, but Roland could not be found, with the passage of time, Eureka's gentle mood became crazy again. Last night, she had escaped from the exile space and made waves in the manor. However, he was knocked unconscious by Sanders.
There was a silence in the air, and the flame in the oil lamp in the white bear's hand kept flickering, which made the light and shadow of xiuys's handsome face clear.
Hughes pondered for a long time, and finally sighed softly.
"I can't help it. It seems that I have to ask your Excellency the phantom for help. Hobson, please help me inform your Excellency the phantom and... Angel, we'll meet in the hall later."
……
A horse's hoof flew outside Gru town. A knight in dark armor came to pat manor with all the dust.
On the side of the dark knight is the current guard Knight of Gelu Town: Jordan.
"Are you sure this letter was not given to the Viscount?" Jordan looked at the tall Knight around him suspiciously. The other party claimed to be from Watford and came to deliver the letter.
"Yes, the client asked me to personally hand it over to an aristocratic young master named Angel." The Dark Knight wore a helmet, and the buzzing sound came from the gap of the helmet.
"Has master pat returned to the manor? Why didn't I get the news?" Jordan whispered for a moment. When he saw the Dark Knight looking over, he nodded, "OK, I'll knock at the door."
Angel was in the hall exchanging his practice experience with Lyon. Bree fluttered to the hall and told him that a knight had sent a letter.
After a while, angel saw the Dark Knight coming with Jordan in the hall.
When the knight saw him, he made a breast caressing salute and presented the letter with both hands in a strict Knight action.
Angel had some doubts about who would send him a letter. When he saw the lacquer seal on the letter paper, he suddenly realized.
The pattern on the fire paint seal is like a pipe, with a row of flower characters below.
The front abbreviation angel can't be recognized, but the words "detective firm" in the back are very clear.
It's related to the detective agency. According to Jordan, the knight is still from Watford, so it must be the detective who looks a little down and out, Richard Mr. Kraft.
Now that Richard had sent the letter to Pat's manor, I think he had found out something.
Considering the population and range of Watford, Richard, as an ordinary person, can find out the results in a week, which is worthy of his reputation as a detective. Angel could not help sighing in his heart.
He thanked like a dark knight and took out a silver coin as a reward.
It was not until Jordan left with the knight that angel returned to the sofa with the letter.
"Who sent this letter?" Lyon asked curiously.
"A detective firm. I asked someone to help investigate a sailor on the Pulsatilla." Angel opened the fire paint as he spoke.
"The sailors on the Pulsatilla?" Lyon suddenly became curious: "do you suspect that the other party is Roland?"
"No doubt, I'm almost sure it's not Roland." Angel said casually.
"Then you still investigate him?" Hearing that it was not Rolando, Lyon's curiosity was caught in a cold rain.
"Just in case." Angel took out the letter paper. There was a faint smell of Wisteria on the thin letter paper.
"The detective knows the aristocracy very well." Lyon sat beside angel and naturally smelled the faint cold fragrance.
Generally speaking, for the process of specially dipping incense or incense for stationery, only aristocrats who are keen on ritual and have a greater pursuit of exquisite life will deliberately do so. For this reason, ordinary noble families will be equipped with special incense servants. In the past, pat manor also had incense servants, but after the servant died, this kind of work was handed over to the personal maid.
Unfold the letter and reveal neat and beautiful handwritten words on the paper. Even angel has to admit that Richard's word is very beautiful.
The literal addition mentioned angel's sense of reading that he was not interested in.
He read it word by word from the beginning.
When Angel finished reading the letter, Lyon looked at it.
In fact, the specific content is that the sailor named flinton came to Watford to look for relatives. After looking for relatives for several months, he successfully found his relatives not long ago. Now he lives in the poor street in the lower urban area. According to his neighbors, he will return to Haiyue City with his relatives soon.
"It seems that you are right. This fulington should not be Roland." Lyon road.
After Lyon finished, he found that angel didn't respond, but he saw that angel was frowning and staring at the stationery, as if thinking about something.
"What's the matter? Is there something wrong with this investigation report?" Lyon wondered.
Angel was silent for a moment. "There's something wrong."
"Is something really wrong?" Leon took the letter paper from angel and read it again. When he finished reading it, he still didn't find anything wrong.
When Lyon was wondering, angel asked, "when he was in Haiyue City, the white bear heard a message from the other crew members of the Pulsatilla. This fulington left Haiyue City on the tenth day of the rest month."
"Take a closer look. When did he arrive in Watford on this report?"
Lyon picked up the letter and soon found the information given by Richard: "according to the clues provided by the neighbors, on the first day of the harvest month, flinton lived in slum street?!"
It's less than a week from the tenth day of the rest month to the first day of the harvest month!
Moreover, this is only the check-in time of fulington provided by the neighbors, and fulington must have arrived at Watford earlier!
The spring breeze of the steam revolution in Yirong country in the mainland has not yet blown to the other end of the distant sea. In the old land, there is no railway or steam train at present. The long-distance journey basically depends on carriage.
Lyon has been to Haiyue City. He knows that it takes less than half a month to transfer from Watford to Haiyue City, even if it is fast and non-stop every day. If you are leisurely again, at least more than a month.
How did flinton arrive inland from the coast of the Canary empire in less than a week?
"There must be something fishy in it. Can this fulington really be Roland." Leon asked.
"Richard's records say that fulington had a dispute with people two months ago and had a fight. Both sides of the fight were injured to varying degrees. With the extraordinary people's attention to their own dignity, I think fulington should not be Roland." Angela paused: "however, there are some doubts about fulington. We must go and see for ourselves to be sure."
Fulington is likely to be associated with some extraordinary people. Of course, Roland is one of them. But after all, the extraordinary people in the old land are not just Roland degrees, so we can't draw a conclusion now.
"I'll go to Watford now." Angel stood up and was ready to leave.
"Wait, if that person is really Roland, he may be implicated in King Guman... Although I don't know how powerful king Guman is, the tutor is also afraid when he mentions king Guman. Therefore, you'd better not go alone." Leon's eyes were worried.
Although Angel insisted that fulington was not Roland, Lyon was right. It was best to report it to his mentor first.
Angel was about to find Sanders when he saw Sanders, xiuis and the white bear coming in from the outside.
The White Bear looked at angel in surprise: "I was going to your house to find you. I didn't expect you were already in the hall."
What do you want me to do? Angel had some doubts, but he didn't bother about it now. Instead, he handed the letter to Sanders: "the news has come from fulington, who I asked a detective to investigate."
Sanders also knew about it, but did angel give it to him so solemnly mean that fulington was suspicious?
Without saying anything, Sanders picked up the stationery and began to read.
The white bear met Richard with angel, so he was also very clear about the investigation. He looked at Angel suspiciously and asked in a low voice, "what did the sloppy detective really find out?"
"It's hard to say. I need to prove it."
Hearing angel's answer, the white bear was stunned. At that time, he didn't believe the man named Richard. Unexpectedly, he really brought unexpected news?
Although I don't know the content of the letter, I look at Sanders' flashing eyes and angel's solemn expression. The white bear suddenly had a hunch in his heart that Roland's tail was really pulled out by a mortal detective
