Although there is no fragrant black tea, the coffee with granulated sugar is not bitter.

"Thank you, Viscount Silvano. Haldais thanked Silvano for sitting in front of him, but instead of picking up his coffee cup, he took a quill and a parchment book from his pocket.

"You wouldn't mind hearing a synopsis of the case in the suburbs of Azeritto first. As the words fell, Holdais raised his head to look at Viscount Silvano, and after he raised his hand, he spoke again: "About four days ago, Kiri's body was found in a luxurious wooden house on the outskirts of Azeritto, and there are currently two confirmed suspects, one is Kiri's husband, Gna, and the other is Kiri's sister, Dorosie Hayat. ”

Speaking of this, Haldais took a sip of his coffee cup before continuing: "I shouldn't have come to visit, but we found a large amount of gold and jewels in the secret compartment of Kiri's wooden house, reminiscent of the previous case in the town of Giregi, so we came to you to find some clues so that the truth can be revealed, and I am deeply saddened by what happened to Anaeus Erdes. ”

Looking at the sincere Haldais, Silvano sighed: "Dorothy Hemmt is a kind person, she would not do such a thing as killing. ”

Then, as if the strength in his body had been exhausted, Silvano leaned back to the sofa behind him paralyzed: "Three days after the murder of my little Anais, I locked on the Gnars, and although there are no clues, my not-so-clever head has not completely lost its effect. ”

"I then sent my subordinate knights to capture them, but because I underestimated Gna's strength, the capture failed, and they quickly fled from the town of Giregi, and they were never found again. After saying that, Silvano exhaled heavily, and it seemed that even if it was a memory, his heart was full of uncontrollable grief.

This was followed by a brief period of dullness.

"Apparently that's why they fled to Azeritto. After Jordès looked down and recorded this in the parchment, he looked up and asked again, "So you know Dorothy Hyat?"

"Before the kidnapping, she was my maid here who was in charge of taking care of the children. With a gentle tap on the sumptuous table, Silvano reached out and picked up the coffee cup with a trembling hand.

"Hmm. In response, Haldais nodded: "Okay, last question, do you still have an impression of the type or style of jewelry that paid the ransom?"

"That's a hard question to answer Holdes, and in that case, it's hard for anyone to show concern for this kind of thing. Silvano shook his head, indicating that he couldn't help much.

"Thank you for your help, Viscount Silvano, and I will certainly do my best to bring the prisoner to justice. With that, Holdes put away his quill and parchment and got up to leave.

"I hope these clues will be of some help to you, but please forgive me for not being able to get you out of the manor myself. Patting Holdais on the shoulder, Silvano called out to the maid at home: "Safe journey." ”

In the afternoon of early autumn, the breeze blows, bringing the atmosphere of depression, and the fallen leaves rise and fall in the ancient streets, until they are far away, this tranquility and serenity, there is no dawn of the rising sun and vigor, and there is no atmosphere and majesty when the sunset sets, but there is a warm and jade-like brilliance, bidding farewell to the dawn with a quiet attitude, ushering in the dusk.

After a long journey, the carriage slowly stopped again at Azeritto.

"Looks like we're going to have to go back to that damn hut again, and hopefully the corpses aren't decomposing yet. López, who jumped off the slow train with his legs up, stretched his body hard.

"Of course, I've asked Knight Alfred to send a priest to slow down the rate of decay of corpses with magic. With that, Haldais lowered his head and began to fill his pipe with tobacco leaves.

"To be honest, the road here should really be repaired, and it's a pity that the carriage can't be delivered, oh, fortunately, it's not too far. As he spoke, López looked up at the lonely wooden house standing at the foot of the mountain not far away.

"A lot of times, the detective profession is still very physical. Smiling, Haldes moved forward on his cane and legs.

"Oh shit, maybe you'll have to ask Alfred if the priest he got for didn't release the magic as planned to slow the decay, or if he simply forgot about it. "The pungent rancid smell made López a little uncomfortable.

"For me, it's bearable, but I think we'll have to hurry up, and hopefully I'll have something to gain before the clues on the corpse are completely gone, would you like to come along, López?" Turning to ask, Holdès opened the door again.

"No, forget it, I'll pray for you, dedicated Detective Halleis. Smiling at Jordès, Lopez raised his leg and began to retreat quickly.

"Well, that's a shame. After taking a puff of his pipe, Holdeth stepped in.

The twilight is dim, the sunset is like blood, the sky is like a sunset with gold edges, at this time it is round, radiant, and the majestic mountains in the distance, under the reflection of the setting sun, are draped in a layer of golden tulle, which is particularly magnificent.

"It's an amazing sight. At some point, Jordès had appeared behind López.

"Except for a little glare, well, how's it going?" asked, and Lopez slowly stood up.

"Only this, it seems to be the genitals of some kind of animal. Answering López's question, Holdés cautiously took out the paper wrapping.

"Oh, let me see. Whispering, López raised his hand to take the paper, and after a careful look, he spoke again: "It's, that's right, it's a dog whip." ”

"Dog whip?" With a puzzled sigh, Haldeth gently removed the pipe from his mouth, "By the way, this was found in the bedroom, and there are unwiped white lines next to the bed, as well as some dark black dirt. ”

"Dream diviner. After a long silence, López softly uttered the word.

"What is that?" Haldeth doesn't seem to have studied much of this.

"I've heard that a group of dream diviners who specialize in divination of dreams for others have recently come here from the Alclos region, and the dog whip is one of the materials they need for divination. After returning the whip to Holdes, López said in a deep voice.
