The streets of Old Dunling are crowded a lot of the time, so it's especially difficult for someone to run, like a fish walking in the mud, and it's hard to move even half a minute despite all your might.

The detective quickened his pace, and with strange speed, he made his way through the crowd, leaving the people who followed him far behind, and finally turned into the alley, where he took off his deer-hunting hat, grabbed the crushed pale blonde hair, took off his trench coat and put it on backwards, and then touched the dirty ground with his hands, wiping dust and muddy water on his face.

He threw his cane into the trash can on the side, and then sat next to the homeless man in the corner, who was sleeping with a dirty blanket, but suddenly someone disturbed his dream, and the detective squeezed into his blanket hard, as close as a brother.

Within half a minute, another group of people rushed into the alley, they did not hide the guns in their hands, and their mouths were swearing, obviously they didn't care about the two brothers and sisters who hugged each other, and continued to pursue in the direction of the alley.

After about a minute, Lorenzo got up from the rubbish heap, and the homeless man opened his eyes, and he didn't know what was happening, but he heard a thank you, and a few coins that had fallen in front of him.

Pulling his cane out, Lorenzo straightened his clothes slightly to look as little embarrassed as possible, and strode out into the street, where a carriage stopped in front of him and the door opened.

"Honestly, Mr. Holmes, your taste isn't very popular right now. ”

Officer Presce looked at the detective and frowned, the smell like a mixture of stinking cheese and rotten fruit being stuffed into the oven.

But apparently Lorenzo didn't care about that, he had even climbed the old Dunling's furnace pillar system before, and in order to ensure that the Black Death in history did not break out again, the entire underground drainage had a complicated process, which was injected with disinfectant at regular intervals, and then steam swept through hundreds of degrees.

Lorenzo was almost steamed by the steam.

"But I guess this thing should be welcome, right? ”

As he spoke, Lorenzo pulled out a letter, the envelope was stained, but the inside was still clean.

"Proof of bribery from the Marquis of Barlov. ”

Pree's hand trembled, as if he didn't expect this detective to be so efficient.

"How did you do that, that guy was very careful. ”

The Suaran Office has been investigating the case of Marquis Barlov for taking bribes for a long time, and this guy has embezzled a large amount of money, but he has not been able to arrest him because of insufficient evidence.

"I know, Twenty-Four was priing something out of his mouth, and it was hard to see him. ”

Lorenzo is very confident, he likes this kind of show of strength, sometimes he wants this group of people to beg for himself, ask himself how he did it.

"But everybody has that absolutely personal moment, when you can only be alone, just seize that moment. ”

"When you can only be alone......"

Pree's expression was slightly evil, as if he had thought of something bad, as if he was in the bathroom at the moment, and a gun was put to his head when he took off his pants...... To tell the truth, if you change to Pree, in order to put on your pants, he will also explain everything.

"What are you thinking, it's the bath. ”

Lorenzo hurriedly interrupted Presie's association.

"It's one of the few good things this guy has in the bath, it's so foggy in the bath that I guess he doesn't even see me. ”

Lorenzo was proud.

Restrained in surprise, Preece put away the letter, and then the carriage stopped, Lorenzo pulled up the curtains, and Cork Street arrived.

"And like before?"

"Yes, the gratuity will be sent directly to your account, just keep an eye on it. ”

Lorenzo nodded, then pushed the door open and left.

Old Dunling had entered winter, and everything had a bleak feeling, and the cold spread around every corner.

It had been more than half a month since his conversation with Arthur, and Lorenzo thought that Arthur really wouldn't spy on him, but the next day the people from Sualan Hall came to the door, and Lorenzo's Winchester was behind the door at that time.

This was an invitation from Arthur, albeit in the name of the Sualan Hall, claiming that they had seen Lorenzo's abilities and invited him to become an external detective in the Sualan Hall, with a case-by-case fee.

In fact, this is also a kind of surveillance, Lorenzo wanted to refuse loudly, but he gave too much money, so much that Lorenzo not only had spare money to pay the rent, but even paid Madame Van Lou to cook dinner for him.

I remember that Mrs. Van Lou's first reaction was to ask where Lorenzo buried the money and what the specific process of robbing the bank was.

Well, forget the hellish old lady for now.

In addition to this, Arthur showed his kindness as much as he could, and the whole of Old Dunling opened countless shortcuts to Lorenzo.

So Lorenzo became a more serious detective, at least in the Suaran Hall.

Officer Pree, who had met several times, became his contact, and Lorenzo thought it would be Eve, but Officer Preece said that the hapless child seemed to have been shut down by the Duke of Phoenix.

Pushing open the door of 121a Cork Street, the rancid smell on it mixed with the fragrance in the room, and there was no reaction in the car before, but at this moment Lorenzo actually had a feeling of retching, but fortunately he didn't vomit it in the end, after all, Madame Vanlou repeatedly emphasized to him the high cost of carpets.

After struggling to climb to the second floor, Lorenzo was puzzled at first, and when the faint snoring sounded, he finally realized that his long-missing roommate was still alive!

Okay, don't bother the social animal who has returned from 007, Lorenzo walked into his room, threw his clothes into the basket, and climbed into the bathtub.

To be honest, Lorenzo suddenly felt that he was normal during this time, he didn't have to go to the lower city, he didn't have to take out a gun to kill people, and he went to Sualan Hall on time every day to check in and check the case, which was just normal, but to this extent, Lorenzo felt a little abnormal, and even now he couldn't believe that his life would really calm down.

"Ah...... Life is wonderful. ”

Lorenzo sighed, his gaze casually scanning, and finally fell out the door.

He didn't close the door, after all, it was his room, but now at the end of his vision, a man was sitting on his favorite sofa.

The mixture of surprise and horror of habit has an indescribable sense of helplessness, Lorenzo is a little unsure of how much she has seen, although Lorenzo is shameless, but the way he stripped naked and climbed into the bathtub is really not very good-looking.

"When did you come?"

He asked.

The girl thought about it and nested in a comfortable position again.

"It's always there. ”

Yes...... It's annoying......

A little embarrassed to cover the old face, Lorenzo collapsed in the bathtub, but like a mending knife, the girl's face that had been cold, the corners of the mouth barely rose, it was like a cold mockery than a smile.

"Honestly, you stink. ”u
