Chapter 149: The Rose Perfume Case
She didn't dare use that money to buy the extraordinary materials and magical items she needed.
Therefore, every month, she uses her special extraordinary ability to steal some valuable things from some noble houses.
As the little princess of the royal family, Andrea doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with what she is doing.
Although her teacher has a lot of power in the organization, she can't ask the teacher directly.
And for that respected and powerful teacher, Andrea is not completely trusted.
After washing, Andrea retired from all the maids in the dormitory, wearing pink pajamas embroidered with delicate lace trims, and walked alone to the window.
Looking up at the starry sky quietly, the stars around him were not conspicuous under the backdrop of the crimson moon.
A few seconds later, I saw that the big and bright golden eyes were glowing with a faint purple light, revealing a hint of bewitching.
Only to hear Andrea whisper:
"I don't know when I'll finish the mission, and get back there?"
It seemed to sense Andrea's call, and I saw that in a corner of the sky, a very dim star began to glow with a faint purple light, reflected in the golden pupils of the little princess, so mysterious.
As if thinking of something, the little princess walked to her bed in annoyance, sat on the silk sheet helplessly, and sighed:
"Well, where is that damn thing now?"
The next day, Tuesday morning, James did not go home to rest, but continued to stay at the police station.
Because there have been no tricky cases in the past few days, he asked Wayne to take Chris's three children to the "Black Cat Office" listed on "Golden Tulip" to see if there are any customers there to entrust.
Since returning from the small town of Solari, James returned the two magical items he had requested on the day he reported to Wardhouse.
And because of Chris's "greedy money" divination many times in the town, James also realized that the extraordinary team's funds were a little tight now, so he asked Wayne and them to take the mission in order to earn some public funds.
As for the three Chriss, with a salary of 3 pounds a week, plus the sale of those potions, they have 14 gold pounds a week, and now they have also accumulated a lot of private assets.
However, considering that it is not enough to buy extraordinary materials for the "Arcane Knight" for Bert, who has already digested most of the potions.
Because James had already helped Bert go to the church to inquire, there was no potion recipe for the "Arcane Knight" in the Church of the God of Machines and Wisdom, so he would not take the initiative to collect the main materials needed by the "Arcane Knight".
So extraordinary materials need to be Bert, and they need to collect messages and buy them on their own.
Fortunately, Chris and the others already knew the recipe for the potion of the "Arcane Knight" from Oliver, and the auxiliary materials in it were also available in the church, and they only needed to collect the main materials, all the spinal fluid of the black hunt monitor lizard and a pair of bear paws of an adult berserk giant bear.
And all the members of the Extraordinary Team know some Extraordinary People in Federenburg to a greater or lesser extent, so James and the others also asked some other Extraordinary People who are familiar with each other to see if they can get relevant news.
This is when the power of the collective manifests itself, and as an official extraordinary, there is no need to sneak into the gathering of wild extraordinary.
All the assets of the three Berts are here with Chris, except for the regular income of 26 gold pounds per week, plus the remaining 500 gold pounds before, except for some of the usual expenses of the three people, Chris now has about 550 gold pounds in his hands.
And the two extraordinary main materials that Bert needs are about 300 gold pounds each.
That's why James asked the three Chris to go to their own office, so that Bert and the others could earn some extra money.
Although most of the commission money earned by the members of the Extraordinary Squad in the office is used as public funds, there is still a part of it that goes to the team members who complete the entrusted tasks.
This is not a rule made by James himself, but is tacitly adopted by all "punisher" squads.
After a boring day in the "Black Cat Office", only two customers came to consult a few words, and did not receive any substantive tasks.
"Well, it seems that there is a lot of competition. Wayne sat bored on the couch and complained, "I knew that the last commission would have been paid in the first place. ”
And in the evening, when they were about to close their doors and go home, a guest came to their office.
This is a young lady dressed in light makeup, wearing the latest style of yellow croissant sleeve ruffle dress, carrying a bright yellow crocodile satchel in her hand, quite extravagant, it can be seen that she is a middle-class housewife.
"Hello, my name is Wayne, I'm a detective at this office, do you have anything you would like to entrust?" Wayne smiled.
The young lady showed a hint of embarrassment, looked at young Wayne and the three young children behind her, and said a little hesitantly:
"Hello, my name is Hibel...... I'm here to ask you to spy on someone for me, oh no, to keep track of his itinerary over the past few days, and all the people I have interviewed. ”
Wayne raised her eyebrows, smiled professionally, and said politely:
"Excuse me, can you tell us about your relationship with this person?"
He ...... It's called Tinis, it's ...... It's my husband. Hibel said shyly, letting people spy on her husband, the meaning of which was obvious.
"Well, Miss Shibel, don't worry, we'll take care of it. Wayne instantly understood the essence of the commission in her heart, "I wonder if you brought a photo of your husband?"
"Yes. With that, Hibel took out a black and white photo from her satchel and placed it on the coffee table.
Bonnie stood behind Wayne and glanced curiously, and the photo showed a rather handsome man, dressed in a decent black suit.
"I wonder what your husband does at night?" Vayne smiled.
"He works for a nearby bank, and he's usually quite busy at work, but it's just ......"
"Just what?" said Wayne, staring keenly at Hibelle's expression.
"I recently smelled some perfume on his shirt. Shibel's expression suddenly became a little excited, "And it seems to be the rose perfume of the Mobokhara family." ”
There's no need to make such a fuss about the smell of perfume on men, especially if they work in a bank. Wayne thought, and she didn't understand Shebelle's last sentence, what else is this perfume so famous for?
Wayne, who didn't know much about perfume, glanced at Bonnie behind her suspiciously.
Bonnie quickly understood what she meant, and pretended to be surprised to help Wayne explain:
"Oh my God, it turned out to be the perfume of the Mobokhara family, it is sold in rare quantities every year in the country, but it is highly sought after by major aristocratic ladies, I heard that a small bottle of his family's perfume costs at least a few dozen gold pounds!"
Now Wayne understood why Ms. Sheebel was so excited, a small bottle of this perfume was worth the expensive satchel in her hand.
"May you smell this on your husband's shirt...... How long has it been since Mobokhara Rose Perfume?"
"It's been a month, and I've smelled it three times. ”
Although she has never been in a relationship, Wayne is a woman after all, and she quickly realizes the problem:
Such an expensive perfume can basically exclude the female colleagues around him, and the frequency can also exclude some female customers, so the next ......
"Well, write down the address of your home and where your husband works, and we'll help you find out where the rose perfume came from. ”
Shibel nodded, took the pen and white paper from Chris, wrote down a line of words, and handed it to Chris.
"I don't know how much I have to pay?" asked Hibel.
Looking at the expensive diamond necklace around the neck of the young lady opposite, Wayne smiled:
"Considering that this matter needs to be monitored all day, and it is certainly not something that can be found out in a short period of time, my price is 20 gold pounds, and I need to pay a deposit of 10 gold pounds first. ”
Bonnie almost screamed when she heard this, 20 gold pounds!
Hearing this price, Xibeier was also a little hesitant for a while, after all, her psychological price was 10 gold pounds, and this directly doubled.
"Miss Hibelle, you are a big matter about your marriage, and I, as a lady, can also keep your secrets, right?" Wayne said seductively, as a "decryptor", she could easily see the other party's psychological swings.
"And what do you think if your husband really doesn't have any problems, and I only charge you 10 gold pounds for the commission?"
Hibel hesitated for a few seconds, feeling that what Wayne said also had some truth, after all, she had roughly seen before, and the famous "Golden Tulip" seemed to be the only one with female detectives in this office, which was the main reason why she chose this one.
Then he took out a delicate purse from his satchel, counted out 10 banknotes with Arnold the Great printed on them, and instructed:
"I hope you will keep quiet after finding out the truth of the matter and notify me as soon as possible. ”
After Shibel left, Chris looked at the address on the paper and said:
The family's organization is located at 22 Lefort Street in the South End, and their work address is at the nearby Fedrenburg Grand Bank. ”
Bert, who had been silent, suddenly said:
"She lied about something. ”
Wayne raised her eyebrows and said in surprise:
"Yes, you're getting better at listening now, tell me, what is she hiding?"
"First of all, she had a relationship problem with his husband since two months ago, and after that, there was a perfume thing, and a few days ago, she and his husband had a fight about it. Bert said in a deep voice.
Wayne smiled and waved his hand:
"Well, it's nothing, she's just saving some face for herself. ”
