Mystery: Shadow of Order

v1 Chapter 132: contract

"Mystery: Shadow of Order(!

"Excuse me, what is the mission?"

Rawls pushed down the heavy frame, took out a piece of parchment from his pocket, and placed it on the coffee table that Detective Zeriel had just cleaned up:

"It's like this, I need to find someone who was seen in the southern part of the bridge a year ago."

"A year ago?" Detective Zeriel didn't look at the parchment on the coffee table, leaned back on the sofa and frowned, "This gentleman?"

"Jeffrey Lister." Rawls signed his usual pseudonym.

"Mr. Lister, you have to understand that such a task usually takes a long time, and it may not even be found in the end."

Rawls frowned, then smiled again:

"I understand this, so Detective Zeriel needs to pay more attention. As for the remuneration, you will definitely be satisfied."

Detective Zeriel crossed his fingers, licked his lips, reached for the parchment on the coffee table, and unfolded it to see a portrait of a young man with black hair and an ordinary appearance, with a line above his left eye. Slender scars.

Below the portrait are two lines of text:

"Kane, he appeared in the southern area of ​​the bridge a year ago, accompanied by a woman."

Putting down the portrait, Detective Zerel looked at Rawls:

"Just this information?"

"Yes, and the scar on this person's left eye may not have been there a year ago." What Rawls is looking for is Kane, who once coveted his cane but was killed by him, a Sequence 9 "thief" ", suspected to be Flora Jacob's disciple.

People have been killed by Rawls, because of the law of Beyonder characteristics aggregation, he didn't even dare to take Kane's Beyonder characteristics.

As for looking for it now, first, I want to confirm where Flora told Kane to wait, which is most likely the location of the Jacob family treasure. Even if you don't go to open the treasure, it is excellent to know this place in advance.

The second reason is for Detective Zeriel. This detective named Zerel Victor Lee is apparently from South Wales. His parents, relatives and friends are there. He is alone in Backlund. , gradually gained some fame.

But in fact, he was a spy from the Feysac Empire. He adopted a group of children in Backlund and taught them the skills of collecting intelligence. Through their advantages in age, he could collect a lot of useful intelligence.

It was one of his adopted children, a red-eyed boy named Ian Wright who discovered the manuscript of Turani von Hermershine's third-generation difference engine, sparking a riotous "five pounds" Assassination of the Ambassador" incident.

Ian passed the news of the discovery of the manuscript to Detective Zeriel, and the detective's boss had Intis's spy beside him, which not only led to the death of Detective Zerel himself, but also made Ian, who knew the whereabouts of the manuscript, arrested. The Zimange Party, that is, the secret pursuit of the Intis ambassador to Loen, Beklang.

But now, the plot has been disrupted by Rawls, and Meursault, the actual head of the Zmanger Party, has died in his hands. Losing the prophetic advantage, Rawls had to do something to secure the Hermerthein manuscript.

As for Kane's specific location in the southern area of ​​the bridge, it can only be said that it is better, and it is not a loss.

"Mr. Lister, in this case, it will be very difficult to find him. After all, he looks too ordinary. Although there are not as many people in the south area of ​​the bridge as in the east area, the flow of people is just as great."

"Detective Zeriel, I think you misunderstood, this man named Kane is dead, but he once stole something, a more precious item in the house. So what I want to know is that he was a year ago Where did you do things in the southern part of the bridge?"

Detective Zeriel glanced suspiciously at Rawls. Although he was a spy, he had been a detective for many years. With the combined experience of the two, his reasoning ability was even stronger than that of most detectives.

He lowered his head and glanced at the parchment spread out on the coffee table, "There is a woman beside him." Then he looked up at Rawls, morning dress? This style seems to be worn by the butlers and personal servants of the upper class...

A servant of a large family kidnapped the hostess or the young lady?

The person is already dead, and it is estimated that the hostess or the young lady has been retrieved. What is the purpose of further investigation? Did you bring something from your family when you escaped, or did you do something after you escaped?

As a detective, Zeriel understood that this was not a question he could ask himself, but it also gave him a reason to shirk. His true identity is a spy, an intelligence officer, and it is his job to collect intelligence.

"Mr. Lister, I don't think I can take this task. I don't have many channels in the southern area of ​​the bridge, so it's difficult to give the information you want." Detective Zeriel pushed the parchment in the direction of Rawls.

"No, Detective Zeriel." Rawls put his hand on the parchment and pushed back, "I came to you precisely because you are in the Bridge District, not the South Bridge District, and I am not I don't want this matter to leak out, otherwise the consequences are not something you and I can bear."

His voice was soft, but with indifference and a little murderousness. As a Beyonder with dozens of lives in his hands, this is enough for an ordinary person.

Detective Zeriel shuddered and looked at Rawls, who had no expression on his face. He knew that if he didn't take this task, he would not be able to make it through today, and he would go to the underworld with the person in the portrait.

He understands how dirty these guys from big families are.

Although he needs to save his life, Detective Zeriel still has to put forward the necessary conditions. If he agrees, he can still accept it. If he doesn't agree, he will continue, but the follow-up is to report to his boss. Let's see how to deal with it.

"I have a few conditions."

"Can."

"First, I need time, which is not an easy task; second, I need enough compensation so that I can arrange staff in the southern area of ​​the bridge."

Rawls retracted his hand on the parchment with a satisfied smile on his face:

"Before December this year at the latest, as for the remuneration, I can pay you a deposit of 50 pounds first, and then 50 pounds per month. After the matter is over, I will pay you another 100 pounds.

Before December, this time is really generous~lightnovelpub.net~ The reward is also a lot, but if I don't finish it, I think I will lose my life.

Detective Zeriel nodded in agreement.

"Then let's sign a contract."

Rawls took out a piece of parchment with golden patterns around it from his bosom. All the contents were listed on it, except for Detective Zeriel's signature.

Taking the parchment, Detective Zeriel looked at the contract on it, and it was in agreement with what was just negotiated. It seemed that if he didn't agree, he would only have the fate of death.

However, it is indeed from a big family! Even the parchment on which the contract was written had gold patterns all around it.
