v1 Chapter 111: Roman's fiance (4/7)

"But now, I can only rely on you." Judy spread her hands. Since Susan was dragged to find Abner, and the other party agreed to start the investigation, then she didn't have to worry about it, so as not to play the character. Expose flaws.

"You just said there might be a problem, what's the specific problem?" Abner frowned and asked.

Speaking of it, Abner, who was originally engaged to Roman, is recognized. Although he is not very familiar and has not announced his name, he has nodding acquaintances when they are together.

In the original owner’s impression, because he was born in a noble family, his parents still hold a lot of shares in several steam machinery factories. Roman’s engagement partner is a rather arrogant person, but his temperament is not bad. The friends around her are also very polite, so the reputation is not bad, which has attracted many female classmates to envy Roman.

"Actually, the story is very simple. Your classmate Roman noticed the alienation of her fiancé Alexis during this period, and he was always worried. An accidental encounter, she saw Mr. Alexis paying great attention to a lady, so she couldn't help it. Come forward theory.

"I don't think that such a behavior not only didn't get the apology he deserved, but was also severely reprimanded by her fiance.

"Ms. Roman was warned by her father because of the school club, but now she is reprimanded by someone she likes, so she jumped into the river because she couldn't think about it...

"Although it is normal to empathize and fall in love, from Miss Roman’s description of her fiancé, I can see that Mr. Alex is a very self-disciplined person who can control his emotions. He is arrogant but can do the right thing. Everyone is polite.

"Such a person, even if he particularly likes his lover, shouldn't embarrass his fiancee so much in the public.

"A person's transformation is so huge, I have to wonder what's the problem behind it."

After listening to Judy's analysis, Abner nodded thoughtfully, and followed the other side's words to add:

"So, it's not that Alec wanted to plot something on that lady, or that the lady herself had a problem that affected Alec."

"I think so too... and based on my past experience in handling cases, it is often that both parties have problems!" Judy gave a serious reminder before smiling again, somewhat playfully, "Okay, I know so much. The rest depends on your ability, Mr. Detective."

I always feel that the words "famous detective" and "hero" that those of you who know the inside story are mocking me...

Abner murmured in secret, but with a serious expression on his face, and solemnly asked: "Then madam, I will confirm one last time, do you really want to entrust me to find out the truth behind the Alec incident?"

The person who acquires the knowledge he has obtained through hard exploration must also have the willingness to acquire the knowledge himself.

This is his new "Knowledge Keeper" playing code after he has dealt with a few small troubles of servants in recent days while avoiding reporters in the office.

That is to say, someone has to express his will to him because he desires to obtain a certain piece of "knowledge", and then he will inform the other party of the corresponding "knowledge" obtained through exploration, so that this "knowledge" has an opportunity to spread and use, and then never Will not be easily lost or cut off, this is a relatively complete "knowledge guard" role.

Although Judy didn't know the deep meaning of this, she saw Abner's serious expression and smiled, and said seriously: "I do have the will to learn the truth."

"Then, I take this entrustment, and I will bring the truth to you as soon as possible, and to Roman." Abner said this, but suddenly saw the girl in front of her plucking some dry hair from her head. Passed it over, and asked puzzledly, "What is this?"

"This is an advance payment. Don't underestimate them. Each of them can poison an adult curly baboon in a few seconds." Judy explained with a grin.

Hearing this, Abner's finger that was about to touch his hair suddenly stopped.

"Haha, don't worry. They can only be toxic when mixed with alcohol. They are usually safe. If you want to figure out someone, you can grind them into powder and blend them into beer. I guarantee that they are colorless and tasteless, even if they are half gods. It's hard to detect... well, my father has been in this trick of me a few times." Judy said happily, as if recalling something interesting.

Then being your father is really a high-risk profession... at least it is more resistant to toxicity than the curly baboon...

Abner spit out a few words in his heart, and concealed the analysis of those hairs with the "white eyes". After the effect on them was probably counted, he took it with his hand and put it away carefully. .

"By the way, they were made by me with extraordinary abilities after all. After leaving me, my strength will gradually be lost... In short, the poisonous effect will slowly decrease after three months, and will be completely ineffective in about half a year." Judy sees Ai Buna put his hair away, and then added another sentence.

"I understand." Abner nodded, which he already knew when he analyzed it.

After talking about the entrustment, Abner asked about the situation of Roman, the former classmate.

"Hey, although the girl’s emotions have eased after the bishop’s patient persuasion, I can still detect the pain and negativity in her heart. This is also when I asked to live for her for a few days, she did not hesitate to agree. The reason for coming down...she was evading reality." Judy sighed.

It seems that Roman has a deep feeling for her fiance... No matter what reason Alec has, it would be too much to treat a fiance who likes him wholeheartedly!

Abner listened to Judy again when he was thinking this way:

"I hope Miss Roman can get out of this relationship. His fiancé may have the qualifications to be a successful businessman or politician, but he is definitely not a good match for a lady."

Abner didn’t want to go deeper on this topic. After all, he didn’t have any emotional experience himself, and he really had no right to speak. So he changed the subject and said, “After you have used Roman’s identity, have you thought about how to deal with the aftermath? Will it bring her trouble?"

"She was originally innocent, isn't it? The government won't do anything to the truly innocent." Judy blinked and continued, "Besides, according to our arrangement, Roman's identity will not be exposed at all. After all, I pretended to be Roman who entered the prom venue through your relationship, and if I was suspected, you would not be able to get out of it."

I'm just worried about this... Now that you have the arrangement, you can feel a little more at ease... But you still have to plan your escape plan in advance, so that you don't have a back hand when something really goes wrong.

Abner has a certain degree of trust in Bishop Utravsky and the "Desolators", but this trust cannot reach the level of Hexiu's little reservations, so the preparations are still needed. .

The same is true for the other party, otherwise he would not fail to talk to him about the specific plan...Of course, this may also be protecting him, after all, the less he knows, the easier it is to get confused afterwards.

After that, the two lifted their spiritual blockade, and deliberately talked and laughed a few words in the tone of classmates, deepening the appearance of "the two are in a good relationship," paving the way for Friday to participate in the dance with "Roman".

Although no one has seen their performance at present, if there is a "detective" to "rewind" afterwards, it can be misleading.

After the two talked and laughed and walked out of the room, Susan stepped up with some doubts and asked: "When did you guys have such a good relationship?"

"It's Roman in a bad mood, I told her a joke to make her happy..." Abner thought for a while to explain.

"What kind of joke? I have comforted Romain for a long time, but didn't succeed. Abner, you are really capable." Susan asked curiously with bright eyes.

"That's the story of a curly baboon... One day a baboon's child picked up his own curly hair on his back, grinds it, mixes it with fruit, and eats it..."

Abner didn't think of any funny jokes for a while, so he could only make up casually.

Judy on one side was a little at a loss. Why did this story sound familiar?

...

In the folklore herbal shop on Leleton Street in Joewood District, an Alec dressed as a successful person watched as a fat pharmacist who looked like a village witch doctor added several strange herbal powders into a glass bottle, and then dropped a few more drops. The rooster's **** behavior made the corners of his mouth twitch, and his black eyes were full of suspicion.

After it was evenly stirred and heated and boiled, the pharmacist turned his head and looked at the main customer who was introduced by someone in front of him. He took a pen and wrote on the paper: "Go back and let the patient drink it as soon as possible, as you described. Circumstances, as well as the toxicity specimens provided, this time the medicine should restore the patient about 30%."

Then, he seemed to write something more~lightnovelpub.net~ but seemed to find it inconvenient to use a pen, so he had to sigh and let it go.

"Is this really useful?" Alec still didn't believe it, but since the lady ordered it, he still didn't directly question it. It's just that a pharmacist who can't even cure his own vocal cords can really dispense medicines that are useful to that powerful lady?

Of course, believe it or not, he still painfully took out 20 gold pounds of cash and handed it to the pharmacist in front of him, then carefully picked up the glass bottle, left the store, and boarded the rental carriage that had been waiting on the side of the road.

When he was seated, the coachman started slowly in the carriage.

In the car, Alek held the glass bottle and subconsciously looked at the pedestrian scenery outside through the car window. Suddenly, his spirituality moved, and he saw an ordinary but delicate "man" walked over from the other side of the road, and met his eyes for a moment.

"Look at the shape of your face...it should be a girl in men's clothing..." Alec habitually judged and didn't care about it anymore.

In this era, there are many women who pretend to be men and come out to work. Moreover, it is not uncommon for some wealthy ladies to come out to play secretly, mostly in such unsuccessful disguise.
