In the dark room, a dark figure sat in the darkness.
Sitting alone.
There was only a repeated murmur in the air: "No...why still no..."
At this moment, light suddenly rose. It was like someone had dug a hole in the dark and closed world. The light from the wall outside the hole shone in, and also illuminated the dark and gloomy soul.
The black shadow raised his head and looked, but the source of the light was that the door was opened, and a man wearing a white bear doll walked in holding an oil lamp that gave off a dim yellow light.
The light of the flame in the oil lamp dispersed the darkness. Accompanied by the clatter of footsteps, they finally stopped in front of the black shadow.
"Red-haired Lord." A deep voice came from the white bear's mouth.
The light then shined in front of the black figure, and the flamboyant red hair shone faintly in the dim light.
"Why are you here?" Xiu Yisi's voice was a little hoarse.
White Bear: "I saw that all your alchemy puppets have returned and have never been sent out again, so I thought..." Maybe I have already finished exploring the area.
Of course, Huys understood what White Bear said.
"No, I didn't find any energy fluctuations within the limit of what the alchemy puppet can control." Huys: "He's not nearby."
Bai Xiong also guessed the result. He hesitated for a moment: "What should we do now? My sister..."
Even with the stimulation of the white bear, but unable to find Rolando, as time went by, Eureka's originally gentle mood became crazy again. She had escaped from the exile space last night and was making trouble in the manor. However,
He was knocked unconscious by a slap from Sanders.
There was silence in the air, and the flame in the oil lamp in White Bear's hand kept swaying, illuminating the handsome face of Huys with clear light and shadow.
Xiu Yisi pondered for a long time, and finally sighed softly.
"There is no other way. It seems that we can only seek help from Sir Huan Mo. Hobson, please help me inform Sir Huan Mo and... Angel, we will meet in the hall later."
…
There was a sound of horse hooves flying outside the town of Gru, and a knight in dark armor arrived at Pat Manor, carrying the dust of the journey.
Next to the dark knight is the current guard knight of Gru Town: Jordan.
"Are you sure this letter is not for the Viscount?" Jordan looked at the tall knight next to him with confusion. The knight claimed to be from Watford and was here to deliver the letter.
"Yes, the client asked me to personally hand it over to a noble young master named Angel." The dark knight wore a helmet, and a buzzing sound came from the gap in the helmet.
"Have Master Pat returned to the manor? Why didn't I get the news?" Jordan murmured in a low voice. Seeing the dark knight looking over, he nodded: "Okay, I'll knock on the door."
Angel was originally exchanging practice experiences with Leon in the hall, but Bree came to the hall with fluttering wings 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 salute to his chest, and presented the letter with both hands in strict knightly movements.
Angel was originally a little confused as to who would send him a letter, but when he saw the seal on the letter paper, he suddenly realized.
The pattern on the lacquer seal looks like a pipe, with a row of cursive characters below.
The first abbreviation Angel is unrecognizable, but the words "Detective Agency" at the back are very clear.
It is related to the detective agency. According to Jordan, this knight is from Watford, so he must be the somewhat down-and-out detective he met before, Mr. Richard Kraft.
Since Richard rushed the letter to Pat Manor, he must have found out some information.
Considering the population and circumference of Waterford, Richard, as an ordinary person, could come up with the results within a week, which was worthy of his reputation as a detective. Angel couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Like the dark knight, he thanked him and took out a silver coin as a reward.
It wasn't until Jordan left with the knight that Angel returned to the sofa with the letter.
"Who sent this letter?" Leon asked curiously.
"A detective agency. I asked someone to help investigate a sailor on the Pulsatilla." Angel said while removing the paint.
"The sailor on the Pulsatilla?" Leon suddenly became curious: "Do you suspect that the other party is Rolando?"
"I have no doubt, I am almost certain that the other party is not Rolando." Angel said casually.
"Then you are still investigating him?" Upon hearing that it was not Rolando, Leon's curiosity was instantly dampened by a cold rain.
"Just in case." Angel took out the letter paper. There was a faint fragrance of purple orchid on the thin letter paper.
"This detective knows a lot about nobles." Leon sat next to Angel, and naturally smelled the faint cold fragrance.
Generally speaking, only aristocrats who are keen on ritual and have a greater pursuit of exquisite life would deliberately soak or incense letter paper. For this reason, ordinary aristocratic families will also be equipped with special incense.
Servants, there used to be incense servants at Pat Manor, but after that servant died, this job was handed over to the maid.
Opening the letter, rows of neat and beautiful handwriting were revealed on the paper. Even Angel had to admit that Richard's handwriting was very beautiful.
The addition of words brought up Angel's sense of reading, which he originally had no interest in.
He read from the beginning, word by word.
After Angel finished reading the letter, Leon had almost finished reading it from the side.
The specific content is actually about this sailor named Fullington, who came to Watford to find his relatives. After searching for several months, he successfully found his relatives not long ago. Now he lives in the slums of Lower City. According to the surrounding neighbors
He said that he would return to Haiyue City with his relatives soon.
"It seems you are right, this Fullington should not be Rolando." Lyon said.
After Leon finished speaking, he found that Angel did not respond, but he saw Angel frowning and staring at the letter, as if he was thinking about something.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this investigation report?" Leon asked doubtfully.
Angel was silent for a moment: "There is indeed something wrong."
"Is there really something wrong?" Leon took the letter from Angel and read it again. After he finished reading, he still found nothing wrong.
When Leon was confused, Angel asked: "When we were in Haiyue City before, White Bear got a piece of information from other crew members on the Pulsatilla. This Fullington left on the tenth day of the month of Breath of Breath."
Haiyue City."
"Take a closer look at this report to see when he arrived in Watford."
Leon picked up the letter and quickly found the information given by Richard: "According to the clues provided by the neighbors, Fullington moved into the slums on the first day of the harvest?!"
From the tenth day of the last month of Muxi to the first day of Harvest, there is less than a week!
Moreover, this is only the check-in time provided by the neighbor, and Fulington must have arrived in Waterford earlier!
The spring breeze of the steam revolution that prospered the continent and prospered the country has not yet blown to the other side of the distant sea. In the old continent, there are currently no railways or steam trains, and long-distance journeys basically rely on horse-drawn carriages.
Leon has been to Haiyue City, and he knows that it will take less than half a month to go from Watford to Haiyue City, even if you go at a high speed and change trains every day. If you take it more leisurely, it will take at least more than a month.
How did Fullington reach the interior from the coast of the Golden Bird Empire in less than a week?
"There must be something fishy here. Could this Fullington really be Rolando?" Lyon asked.
"Richard's records stated that Fullington had a dispute with someone two months ago and had a fight. Both parties in the fight suffered varying degrees of injuries. Based on how extraordinary people value their own dignity, I think
Fullington is probably not Rolando." Angleton paused and said, "However, there are indeed some doubts about Fullington. You have to go and see it in person to be sure."
Fullington is very likely to have contact with some extraordinary beings, of course, Rolando is one of them. But after all, Rolando is not the only extraordinary person in the Old Continent, so it is impossible to make a conclusion yet.
"I'm going to Watford now." Angel stood up and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute, if that person is really Rolando, he may involve King Guman behind him... Although I don't know how powerful King Guman is, my mentor also felt fear when he mentioned King Guman. So.
, you'd better not go alone." Leon had worry in his eyes.
Although Angel still insisted that Fullington was not Rolando, Leon was right. It was best to report this matter to his mentor first.
When Angel was about to go find Sanders, he saw Sanders, Huys and White Bear walking in from outside.
Bai Xiong looked at Angel in surprise: "I was about to go to your room to find you, but I didn't expect you were already in the hall."
What are you looking for me for? Angel was a little confused, but he didn't dwell on the matter now. Instead, he handed the letter to Sanders: "I asked a detective to investigate Fullington before, and the news has come."
Sanders also knew about this, but the fact that Angel handed it to him so solemnly meant that there was something suspicious about Fullington?
Sanders didn't say anything, picked up the letter and started reading.
Baixiong met Richard with Angel, so he was also very aware of the investigation. He looked at Angel suspiciously and asked in a low voice: "That sloppy detective, did he really investigate something?"
coming?"
"It's hard to say, I need to go and verify it."
Hearing Angel's answer, Bai Xiong was stunned. At that time, he still didn't believe the man named Richard, but he didn't expect that he really brought unexpected news?
Although he still didn't know the content of the letter, looking at Sanders' twinkling eyes and Angel's solemn expression, White Bear suddenly had a hunch in his heart. Perhaps, Rolando's tail was really discovered by a mortal detective.
It was found out...
