"Donald, meet here at 9 o'clock tomorrow, not for the office, this is a new assignment... You are in a strange state today, didn't you sleep well last night?"

Before leaving, Sherlock handed over a photo with the name of a certain street and cafe on it.

"Well, something happened last night... I just finished translating all the text today, aren't you going to study it?"

It has been nearly two weeks since Donald joined the job. Even though he deliberately delayed the translation time, he still finished translating all the content today.

Although the order of the words is chaotic, Donald is generally able to determine that Sherlock has a talent formula in his hands. He has been preparing various materials and utensils these days, and people are a little dazzled.

Compared with Donald's state of no money and no way out, Sherlock is obviously more skilled in the selection of materials.

Therefore, after the translation was completed today, Donald thought that he must spend his time completing the final steps, but he did not expect to receive a new commission.

"It was originally the plan, but this commission was special. A noble lady asked us to check on his husband. The letter said that there was someone outside, you know."

He took out an unsigned letter from his pocket, which only read: Detective Swift.

"This... is it special?"

It is normal for nobles to have women outside. As long as the nobles in Preston are of a certain age, they will almost all participate in various "gatherings". This is a social trend. The main content is this aspect. To say that it is special, Donald really didn't see it.

"It's not that he is special when he finds a woman outside, but the nobleman himself is very special. It was reported in the strange secret newspaper that one of the recent disappearance cases of young girls has a close relationship with him, um... it should be said that One-sided, this noble gentleman is fiercely pursuing Miss Madeleine Kirk, and you should know that the man in the crush will pay attention to everything about the other party, no matter how big or small."

Sherlock has been obsessed with the girl's disappearance. The news that he disclosed to Marcelo Blaise has recently become popular. As a thank you, he sent a whole bag of materials.

Most of them are a summary of the disappearance of the girl from the beginning to the end. Now they are all piled up on the table, and Donald needs to clean up later.

"Doesn't that noble have a wife? It's unreasonable to pursue Miss Madeleine Kirk. Bigamy is against the law, oh... He is a noble, not afraid, but can his wife bear it?"

Although the concept of **** in this era is quite open, it is still quite conservative in terms of monogamy. Men can have concubines outside. Although women care about it, they often choose to remain silent. After all, it is still a patriarchal society.

But if one day a man brings his concubine home, it will be different, no matter how easy-going lady can't tolerate this kind of behavior, because it means that the man is determined to divorce her and marry again, this noble gentleman is so eager to pursue other Girl, make it known to everyone, this is undoubtedly what it conveys.

"How can I bear it? I can smell the smell of gunpowder between the lines in this letter, that's why she came to us. The life of this noble gentleman is not uncomfortable recently. All we have to do is to take a few photos. It must be special enough and enough. It's amazing, it can be used for property distribution in the future, the lady's asking price is 10 gold pounds, and if the photos are satisfactory, it will be added."

Sherlock was excited.

After Donald left the office, he was waiting at the cafe he had agreed with Marcelo Blaise yesterday.

Subconsciously, he remembered what happened in the early morning.

Thinking has gradually become his habit.

The deal with Infinita did not bring him a sense of security, and the chronic poison in his body became a new time bomb.

This is a deal that was agreed as a last resort in a desperate situation, in order to keep some memories, so as not to be forced to forget them and become a puppet at the mercy of others.

Give them the inheritance in exchange for their own lives?

There is no contract, no witnesses, which makes Donald how to believe.

This transaction was unfair from the very beginning. Donald was at an absolute disadvantage, without any guarantee, and his life and death were between the other party's thoughts. This feeling was very uncomfortable, just like when he saw Ronan's flesh and blood on the street. In a panic.

He wanted to find a way to change this situation, at least he couldn't be eaten by Infinita like this. He had to find a way to get rid of the poison in his body.

To find a way to break the game... That cup of tea last night!

This is the conclusion Donald came to after thinking about it again and again. The effect of the Dream Inquiry Potion is not something he can solve now. Before going to bed, he drank two kinds of liquids, tea, and a meditation-enhancing potion.

He clearly remembered that his mind suddenly sobered up after drinking the tea.

Cann Antoine gave him no ordinary tea.

This man is the key!

"Mr. Grant... Mr. Grant?"

The call in his ear made Donald suddenly return to his senses, and Marcelo Blaise had arrived.

"I'm sorry, I was stunned for a while. Today's night is good."

Looking at the pitch-dark night outside, Donald felt a little regretful after speaking, pinching his nose in embarrassment~lightnovelpub.net~ The night in the city of this era is not a good word.

"It's me who should apologize. There was an urgent matter in the newspaper office and I was working overtime, so I was one step late."

Marcelo put a folder on the table, and he was late for the appointed time. No matter what the reason was, it couldn't change the fact that he was rude.

"What's the matter? Would you mind sharing it with me? I'm a detective assistant, and I'm still curious about some things."

Taking a sip of the bitter coffee, Donald has recently started to like this bitter taste.

The heart is bitter, fighting poison with poison.

"What else could it be, the girl's disappearance case, ah... Now I have to change my name. In the past 20 years, Preston has been the worst serial girl's disappearance case, and two more victims appeared tonight. However, after the family reported it to the police, it spread as soon as possible, and the news could not be blocked in the police station at all.”

It has been the third week since the first disappearance case. Not only has not a single girl been recovered, but even a body has not been found. Now all the girls in Preston are in danger, and even appear in the university The large number of female students taking leave is enough to prove the panic caused by this incident.

"The case hasn't been solved yet, so the killer's tactics are too good, right?"

"The murderer's target selection has no characteristics, tall, short, fat and thin, with all kinds of appearances, and committing crimes irregularly. This is the most difficult case to solve, because even the murderer does not know who he is going to kidnap next. The targets are all random selection!"

As a person who had direct contact with the case in another sense, Marcelo also had cold lips and teeth when talking about the situation of the girl's disappearance.

Is it really random selection?

For this type of serial disappearance, Donald believes that there should be a pattern in it.
