Mystery: The Extraordinary Journey Starting from an Angel
Chapter 109 Looking for someone
On Saturday morning, Klein visited inventor Leppard again on Sage Street in St. George's District.
Because the bicycle was not yet ready.
He told the other party not to rashly approach anyone to discuss follow-up investment and cooperation before actually obtaining the patent.
Leppard agreed with this. He had been cheated twice before for the same reason - before obtaining the patent, the potential investors he contacted understood the product clearly, so he was kicked away and watched the other party bribe the staff and get the patent first.
After leaving Leppard's house, Klein arrived at the slightly gloomy and dim house of Eisinger Stanton in the Hillston District at the scheduled time.
Today is the date when the reward for the serial murder case is released!
Walking through the living room and entering the previous living room, Klein saw two familiar detectives, Kaslana and Stuart, and sat next to the latter.
"Sherlock, how much bounty do you think we will get this time? It should be no less than protecting Atreus. Of course, I didn't do much work, so I can only get a limited share. Emperor Roselle once said that you get what you sow." Stuart pressed his fist against his beard.
Klein guessed with interest:
"It may be a few hundred pounds, but it won't be less than 10 pounds."
And I'm the one who gets the most...
If Isengard Stanton is as credible as he describes himself...
Klein added in his heart.
At this time, Isengard, with gray hair and a thin face with clear contours, wearing a white shirt and brown vest, holding his iconic pipe, entered the living room where the fireplace was burning, sat on his armchair, and smiled:
"Ladies and gentlemen."
"I just came back from the Backlund Police Department. They recognized our contribution and believed that we provided crucial help in solving the case."
"Although we did not participate in the subsequent roundup, we can still get half of the reward."
"That is to say, we will share 1,000 pounds in cash!"
"This is also a very generous reward in Backlund. A single detective has to sleep on the streets for four or five years without food or drink to save it."
The atmosphere in the living room suddenly became relaxed, and everyone was filled with expectations for their own rewards.
Even Klein was no exception. He was guessing how much Isengard would give him.
At least hundreds of pounds, right? He whispered silently.
Isengard took a puff of his pipe, narrowed his eyes, and said with satisfaction:
"Thank you all for your trust in me. I will make the distribution now."
"The biggest contribution this time is Detective Sherlock Moriarty. The ideas and thoughts he provided helped us find clues and get on the right track. He is a veritable reasoning expert!"
"Ms. Kaslana can confirm this. I still have a few letters from Detective Moriarty. Those who have doubts can take a look."
It's very fair...
He didn't even list himself as the biggest contributor...
Klein immediately looked at the great detective Isengard Stanton with a new look:
No wonder he is so authoritative in the detective circle!
Seeing that no one raised any objections, Isengard nodded gently and said:
"I declare that the bounty for Detective Sherlock Moriarty is 300 pounds!"
With a bang, the detectives in the living room whispered to each other.
From time to time, they looked up at Klein, as if they had finally recognized this excellent detective praised by Mr. Stanton as a reasoning expert.
What a generous and fair man...
Klein opened his mouth, but he was not modest in the end.
The second place in the bounty was Eisinger himself and Kaslana, who each took 160 pounds.
The other detectives divided the remaining 380 pounds based on their different contributions.
Among them, the lowest one was 15 pounds, which was equivalent to their usual income of three or four weeks. This is the benefit of a high bounty for a big case.
Stuart was very satisfied with the 40 pounds he received, because he felt that he had only done two days of observation, and the object of observation was not the suspect that was later locked.
Of course, he also had to pay part of the 40 pounds out - the informants and helpers involved in this matter must all be taken care of.
After dividing the bounty, Stuart suddenly remembered something, and while taking out a piece of paper from his trouser pocket, he said to Klein:
"Sherlock, I recently took on a very well-paid search mission. You mobilize your resources and help me pay attention. If you can find it, I won't miss your share."
"Okay, no problem." Klein replied indifferently.
Stuart handed over the paper in his hand and said:
"This is the man, who has been missing for nearly two weeks."
"Because he himself is involved in indecent things or some degree of crime, the client does not want us to ask the police for help."
Klein nodded slightly, unfolded the paper, and saw a black and white photo:
It was a man with his hair combed back at an angle, serious and somewhat unrestrained.
He was about 27 or 28 years old, with a delicate and handsome appearance, but there was undisguised arrogance between his eyebrows, a high nose bridge, and thin lips.
"By the way, his name is..."
Stuart thought about it and said, "Emlyn White."
Emlyn White...
Klein suddenly turned his head and looked at Stuart:
"Ah?"
Isn't this the name of the vampire imprisoned in the basement by Father Utravsky?
He had also heard this name from Olivia, and it seemed that she was also looking for this vampire.
But Klein did not tell Olivia where Emlyn White was at that time.
The first reason was that Klein did not know whether Olivia was going to deal with Emlyn White or save him.
However, whether to save or kill him, he had to get past Father Utravsky.
And Olivia was already a Sequence 2 angel, so it was easy for her to deal with a little priest.
Father Utravsky gave Klein the potion formula and had some friendship with him, so how could he let him die like this?
So, Klein chose to conceal it.
Now someone was actually looking for Emlyn White, which made Klein a little confused.
The first person he thought of was Olivia, but Olivia was an angel, and an angel of the Church of Night.
To find a vampire, wouldn't it be easy to mobilize the power of the Church of Night?
Why did they go to a detective for help instead of looking for help?
This was very unreasonable.
Could it be Emlyn White's family?
Those vampires?
If this is the case, it's fine, but a detective can't get any information from Father Utravsky, and he is doomed to get nothing.
To be honest, Klein wanted to help Emlyn White, after all, he got a lot of information about the master key from him.
However, this matter is a bit serious now.
On one hand, Olivia is looking for him, and on the other hand, people from unknown forces are looking for Emlyn White.
Klein seriously doubted whether Emlyn White had done something immoral and was targeted by so many forces and people.
