Secret: I can play two paths

Chapter 98: Sitting at home, digestion progress comes from the sky
After seeing off Senator Maynard's wife and her sister, Klein turned to look at Dunn and asked:
"Captain, what do you think?"

Captain Dunn had just managed to regain his usual composure in front of the two ladies, only occasionally being a little distracted.

At this moment, he also raised his head and answered Klein's question:

"This task is left to you."

"Huh?" Klein looked confused.

No, Captain, you won't take revenge on personal grounds, right?
Dunn turned his head to look at Klein and smiled.

"I think you can learn some tracking and monitoring skills. This is a good opportunity to practice, and you don't have any tasks recently."

He had no interest in investigating extramarital affairs, a task that only private detectives would take on.

Even though Congressman Maynard's wife suspected that the death threats Congressman Maynard received came from Madam Sharon, she also cited the example that Madam Sharon had methods that were not like those of normal people and was suspected to be a wild Beyonder.

It is also possible that Congressman Maynard's wife exaggerated the matter out of jealousy.

But Dunn was not in good shape today. Thinking that Klein was right next to him, he suddenly wanted to hand over the task to Klein.

He hesitated and said:

"You remember the tobacco merchant? What was the kidnapping all about?"

...Captain, you didn't remember anything just now, and you didn't understand anything...Are you so out of shape today? Klein covered his face with his hands, and finally explained the kidnapping case that helped him discover the clues of the Antigonus family's notes a few weeks ago.

Dunn seemed to realize that he had made a fool of himself, and smiled awkwardly:

"Remember to go to Leonard and Frye to learn the techniques of tracking and monitoring."

"Try to complete this commission alone to track and monitor Mrs. Sharon and find evidence of her crime."

"Okay, let's go find Leonard and learn."

“Okay…” Klein did not refuse.

As soon as he agreed, his thoughts began to race:
According to the regulations, half of the mission reward must be handed over to Mrs. Orianna and the team's treasury, and the rest will be divided equally among the participating team members. However, it seems that I am the only one who has taken over this commission...

Regardless of whether the investigation is successful or not, you will get a guaranteed income of 25 pounds, and you will continue to receive your salary... If you can find some clues, you can get a full 125 pounds!
What a wise captain!
Although I always feel that it is a bit unreliable to learn tracking and monitoring techniques from Leonard and Frye...

Dunn heard Klein's response, nodded slightly, and walked towards the partition. Suddenly, he stopped, turned around, hesitated for a moment, and hurriedly added:
"Leonard has been assigned to another mission by me. You should go to see Old Neil to continue your studies this morning."

Klein sighed inwardly, feeling that the captain was showing off his poor memory.

Forget it, I don’t understand. I’m just a single guy… Klein opened his mouth, but couldn’t say anything.

Watching the captain walk away completely with a bit of shame, he thought helplessly that there was nothing more to add now.

Luo Shan, who was standing next to her, came over curiously. She seemed to have noticed something and asked with a strange smile:
"Klein, what happened to the captain today? Why did he become like this after Ms. Daly left?"

"It was obvious that he was not in the right state during the conversation just now. It was like he was pretending to be calm."

Klein glanced at Roxanne and complained in his heart:
Even Roshan noticed that the captain was not in good shape. Could it be that the wife of Congressman Maynard had also noticed it?
No, maybe it is possible that they didn't notice it. After all, when I turned on my psychic vision, I found that they were in a state of fear and jealousy. They probably didn't realize that the professional they commissioned was actually a love-brained person.

Well, there is always a sense of black humor in asking a man in love to solve an extramarital affair.

Without waiting for Klein to answer, Roshan continued to ask and answer herself:
"Could it be...something good happened between the captain and Ms. Daly?"

You guessed it right... Klein didn't know how to respond for a moment, so he could only say:

"Please don't tell anyone. For now, just the two of us...a few people will know about it."

I didn't mention the two of them because Star also knew about it... I don't know how he knew it so well though. What a magical golden finger. Luo Shan said "Huh" and laughed at Klein's words: "Captain, can you hide this from others?"

Klein also recalled the captain's state and was speechless for a long time. He could only express his agreement.

At the same time, he secretly complained:
I hope the captain can adjust himself in time.

Otherwise, my welcome party tonight would turn into a gathering of curly-haired baboons celebrating the union of the captain and Ms. Daly...

After chatting with Roshan for a few words, Klein soon reported to the armory to study with Old Neil.

This old man, who had come out of the past and had the idea of ​​promotion, was seen preparing for his role as Sequence 8 "Fighting Scholar".

He has already bought professional fighting props such as boxing gloves, sandbags and "Teach You How to Fight", and he is busy preparing them.

Klein was somewhat puzzled by this.

He couldn’t imagine Old Neil complaining after he was promoted to Sequence 8: “Young people have no moral principles, they come to cheat, steal, and suck, just waiting for the mice to follow.”

Klein said anxiously:
"Mr. Neil, it seems a little dangerous for you to get promoted at your age. Would you consider it again?"

Old Neil looked at Klein and said:

"That person seemed to have cured my physical condition? Or my 'Mystery Peeper' potion seemed to be digested better than I thought?"

"Besides, I won't be obsessed with seeking to revive her. In the last period of my life, I just want to experience the feeling of being promoted to a Beyonder."

"This is also living for her..."

Klein nodded. He knew who Old Neil was talking about. In his heart, he lamented the change that Star had brought about.

Then, Old Neil glanced at Klein and said:

"Don't think about the dinner tonight. You still have a lot to learn, such as more ritual magic, such as ancient Hermetic language, Dragon language, Elven language, etc."

"By the way, you have to practice fighting with the teacher for at least two hours every afternoon except on your days off."

"Fighting? The captain didn't mention it just now..." Klein was shocked.

Old Neil nodded and answered without hesitation:
"He forgot."

Klein held his forehead and sighed.

Oh, should I not have listened to Star and tried to match the captain and Ms. Daly? The captain is so confused today. Is love such a big influence on people...

However, Sta's absence from the Nighthawks has brought many changes to everyone here.

It seems that if it weren't for him, Leonard and I wouldn't have shared the "acting method" so freely?
……

On the other side, the other two protagonists mentioned by Klein, Leonard and Star, were doing one-on-one training.

It was called practice, but in fact, Star was secretly learning Leonard's abilities under the guise of instruction.

Suddenly he paused for a moment, a little confused.

"Tsk, I don't think I've done anything yet? Where does the progress of the 'player' come from?"

People sit at home and digestion progress from the sky?

As he was thinking, Star felt that his other potion belonging to the "lucky guy" was also touched.
