Whispering Poems

Chapter 647 Legacy and Miss Black
"Good morning, Tifa."

Seeing that it was the black-haired maid, Xia De also smiled.After accepting the invitation and boarding the carriage, it was discovered that there was no Miss Galina in the carriage, but there were three other ladies.

One looked a little younger, and she was also one of Miss Galina's personal maids, but she was an ordinary person.The other two are sorceresses next to Miss Galina, both in Central.Because they all knew Xia De and the relationship between Xia De and Miss Galina, they all nodded at him cautiously.

"Tifa, why are you here? Are you helping Miss Galina?"

This is Shad's problem.

"Miss sent me to buy an antique, because it is very important, so I must do it."

Tifa said, and the carriage continued to drive forward slowly:
"The antique council has been searching for it for a long time, but it has only recently found its whereabouts. What about you? Shade, what are you here for? Detective commission?"

"No, no, it's not a commission, it's for a stone figurine. You don't think it's for this, do you?"

Although the maid was slightly surprised, she still smiled:
"The first two are related to you, it can't be a coincidence, so Miss thinks that we will find out one day, and the third must also be related to you. Look, you really came to find this stone figurine. However, That stone figurine cannot be given to you, the miss told me to take it back."

"I don't want that stone figurine, I just want to take a look."

"That's good, miss. You don't need to find someone to translate. The emperors of the old era liked to write poems in older languages, which made the translation a big trouble."

Xia De once told Miss Galina that he could understand most ancient characters.

Now that Tifa appeared, there was no need for Shad to sneak in.The duchess is amazing. Tifa and his party have a real transaction document in their hands. The dead Simil Pasolo once promised to sell dozens of antiques including the stone figurine to Miss Galina.So, Shad just follow Tifa.

The carriage stopped in the middle of the street, and Xia De got out of the carriage first.He went up the steps and wanted to knock on the door of the apartment, but just as he raised his hand, he heard the sound of arguing inside.

It was a man yelling, because the speed of speaking was too fast, and because of the door panel, Xia De could only hear words like "property".

Although he didn't understand what happened, he still reached out and knocked heavily on the door a few times.

The quarreling stopped immediately, and after more than ten seconds, footsteps came from the door, and then the door was opened.The door was opened by a tall, 30-something maid wearing an apron.

She lowered her head and asked Xia De and Tifa, who was getting off the carriage behind her, the reason for their visit, and it could be heard that she had just cried in her tone.

"What happened here?"

Although he was very curious, Xia De still introduced himself first:
"I am Knight Hamilton of Regard, and this is the personal maid of Miss Galina Cavendish, Duchess of Saladir, Miss Servet and Miss Leila."

Tifa, who had already got off the carriage, nodded slightly, followed by the young maid.The two middle-ring sorceresses who were probably sent to prevent other situations did not get out of the car, and they would wait nearby.

"Hello, three!"

The maid who opened the door immediately wiped her eyes with her sleeve:
"Is there something wrong?"

Tifa motioned for Shad to speak, and Shad cleared his throat:
"Through a middleman, the Duchess once had an agreement with Mr. Simila Pasolo. Mr. Simila Pasolo wanted to sell a batch of antiques to Miss Galina."

The contract was taken out by Xia De, and after the maid took it and checked it, she invited three people to come in and talk.

There are two other people in the living room, one is a man in his 40s who looks more elegant wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and the other is a woman of the same age as the former, with thick makeup on her face and a plump figure.

The maid introduced the three people who entered the door to these two, and then introduced them to the three Xia De.They are the children of the deceased Mr. Simila Passolo, the elder is Bick Passolo, who is married, and the next one is Jeanne Passolo, who is two years younger than him, and is still unmarried.

Both Pasoolos are well-dressed, and they seem to be based on their original families, at least not falling into class.

Shad sat down on the sofa with them, but Tifa stood behind him with another maid.

"So, this time, I hope to take away the batch of antiques. Of course, we also brought the gold pounds in the contract."

The box of money is now being carried by the maid.

"The contract is fine, and we are also honored to be able to trade with the Duchess of Saladir, but"

Bill Pasolo showed some embarrassment on his face:
"But because of the disposal of the estate, everything left by my father can't be moved now."

"What does this mean? Excuse me, who is the heir? We can talk to him. The gold pound is not a problem."

Shade said.

"Of course the heirs are me and my sister!"

Bill Pasolo's voice suddenly became high, and then realized that he was impolite, and immediately apologized.

"Oh?"

Xia De looked at him suspiciously:
"Since it's you, why...is there no specific will?"

"Yes, but in the will, my father left most of the property to her!"

Jenny Pasolo suppressed her anger and pointed to the maid who opened the door for the three of them. She was holding a saucer and wanted to come over, but when she saw that she was mentioned, she stood there at a loss, her face flushed. I don't know what to say.

Now Xia De understood what was the reason for the roar he heard just before knocking on the door.

"Well, this maid should have taken care of Mr. Pasolo for a long time, right?"

"ten years."

The maid who was still wearing an apron whispered.

"Two, you shouldn't visit Mr. Simila Pasolo often?"

Xia De asked again, Luvia mentioned this just now.

Bespectacled Bill Pasolo did not deny:

"We don't live in Tobesk, and we only visit my father in summer and winter every year. Jenny and I are very grateful to Lina for taking care of my father for so long. If my father only left part of his property to her, we would both No objection. But, but”

He couldn't suppress his anger again:
"Father gave her about 80.00% of the property in the will!"

After finishing speaking, I apologized again for my voice.

"Is that so, so you haven't clarified the ownership of these properties, so you can't hand over those antiques for the time being?"

Shade concluded that the two Pasolos and the maid called "Linna" nodded.

"Jenny and I are negotiating with Linna, hoping to properly handle the distribution of the inheritance. If there is no result, we will resolve it through the law. The inheritance law of the Kingdom of Delarion may be able to help us."

But in Xia De's view, since there is a will, it must be the maid Linna who occupies the jurisprudence.But the problem is that if you really want to resort to the law, it is not easy for an ordinary maid with no power to defeat the two Pasoolos who are above the middle class.

Xia De has no intention of participating in other people's family affairs, but he doesn't want to waste too much time here:

"If you have a will, you must do things according to the will."

He said simply, and seeing Tifa behind him nodded carefully, he added:
"If the three need a lawyer, Miss Galina will not be stingy in helping to uphold justice."

The maid Linna looked at Shad gratefully, while the two Pasolos looked a little ugly:

"Mr. Hamilton, what do you mean?"

"How to write the will, it should be done. Where is the will? Mr. Simila Passolo, to whom did you leave these antiques?"

"No, actually, it's not right for Mr. to leave so much money to me. I just took care of him for a while."

The maid said in a low voice, seeing that there was still room for discussion between Piccolo Pasolo and Jenny Pasolo, they immediately smoothed things over and promised to hand over the batch of antiques today.

After all, no matter who the inheritance belongs to, it belongs to the three people present.As long as all three agree to realize the antiques in the property division, the transaction contract can be fulfilled.

It seems that Mr. Bill Pasolo is really afraid that Miss Galina will hire a lawyer for the maid.

The next thing is simple. The antiques collected by Mr. Simila Pasolo have not been touched after his death, and they are all in the collection room on the third floor.Five people went upstairs together to check and count the goods in the list.

But to Xia De's surprise, all the antiques were there, except for the stone figurine with fragments of poems missing.

"The little stone figurine seemed to be buried with Mr. Pasolo as a funeral object."

The maid recalled for a while before she said this:
"This is the decision made by the husband before his death. He chose six antiques to be buried with himself."

Bic Pasolo and Jenny Pasolo also know this, there is a list of funeral objects, and there will be no fakes.

Xia De asked Tifa's opinion in a low voice, and then said:
"If this is the case, it's really a pity, but since this is the case, Miss Galina can only lose one collection."

On the third floor, they handed over the antiques on the list that were only listed as a cover. Before leaving, Shad made a new request:

"I want to have a private conversation with Miss Linna and ask about Miss Black who lives on this street."

He introduced his identity as a detective, so the Pasoolos temporarily avoided.

Shad and Tifa were talking to the maid in the living room, but this time it was Tifa who spoke:

"Although Knight Hamilton threatened them just now, after we leave, the will will still not be recognized."

The maid in her 30s nodded shyly:
"It doesn't matter. I also know that it is difficult for them to accept this. I am willing to give up some of my property, but it is impossible to completely give up this gift."

"If you need anything, you can write to me, and I can help you."

Tifa said again, Shad also nodded:

"Besides this matter, I really want to talk to you alone because I really want to ask about Miss Black. You live on the same street, so do you know her?"

"Yes, on this street, my husband and I are probably the people who are most familiar with her. What do you want to know?"
