Chapter 508: A Bohemian Scandal
"Hey, is it me?", seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, pandan grass was a little at a loss, "I...... I can't help much. She shook her hand again and again.
The others were also confused, "What is the use of such a little girl?"
The nightingale hurriedly protected the pandan grass and shouted at Al, "Hey, what the hell are you going to do again?"
"Don't worry, I won't let pandan grass risk it. Al promised, and he said to Ollie, "Remember when we escaped from the cathar camp and encountered the Dark Elves for the first time in the 100,000 Mountains?"
"Of course, I remember that the dark elves quietly restrained us at that time, and now I think about it. Ollie recalled, and he reacted immediately, "you mean...... You want to use that magic from the Dark Elves?"
"That's right. Al nodded, "It's the shadow cloak magic invented by Pandan Grass, as long as I learn this magic, I can naturally peek into the account books without noticing, and I can not alarm anyone." ”
Seeing that Al and they were having a heated discussion, Noek was at a loss, Al noticed him and said with a smile: "Mr. Noike is still in the dark, let me introduce you to these two lovely Miss Dark Elves." He had already made up his mind to tell Noek the details, and without the support of him, the head of the northern intelligence network, they would not be able to move an inch in the north.
On the contrary, if you deliberately conceal it and keep Noyke unaware, it may hinder the follow-up plan. For Ayr, Noyke's full support was indispensable.
If the intelligence chief of the western frontier in the northern realm can't be trusted, then he is doubting not only Noyck, but also his father, Duke Edward, about his vision and ability. The Duke would not let a white-eyed wolf sit in such an important position.
After listening to Al's introduction, Noek was a little dumbfounded, after all, he had lived in the North for more than twenty years, and his thinking had long been infected with the characteristics of the people of the North: the dark elves were enemies, disasters, and dangers. Now that he heard that he was going to cooperate with the dark elves, and there were two living dark elves standing in front of him, he felt like he was dreaming.
However, Noike quickly adjusted his mood and continued to analyze: "In this way, the way to hide the trace is found, but how can we know the exact location of the account book? This is the most important thing, and if the location is uncertain, then there is no way to talk about any plan." ”
"yes. Al got up, pacing and thinking as he could, and he couldn't do anything about it for a long time, so he could only sigh: "If only this Mr. Hackreve were Mrs. Hackreef, then we would be able to narrow the scope considerably." ”
"What's the matter?", asked the nightingale bewildered.
"Women by nature like to keep secrets, they always hide secrets in their own way, and they always have to keep them within their reach. This is not a worldly truth, but it is a universal law. Al explained.
"When you say that, I remember. Do you know what this Mr. Hardcliffe's nickname is? Falcon's old mother, that's his nickname! This is the nickname that the generals of the Northern Army secretly gave him, saying that he was like an old woman, always calculating and chattering. Noyke shouted.
"Oh? That's kind of interesting, it's not like he's a soldier. Ollie and the others also nodded, saying that a soldier in the army was like a "woman", which was scolding.
"If he really has such a character, then there is a good chance that he will hide the account books in his mansion. Al said uncertainly: "It's just that he has been in the army all year round, so it's not easy to judge." Because soldiers usually trust their comrades-in-arms very much, unlike ordinary people. ”
He thought for a while, and then decided, "No matter what, let's assume that he hid the account book in the mansion first, hoping to succeed at once." If it's really not, we have to think of another way. ”
"But...... Even if he did hide the books in the mansion, how could we be sure of the location of the books?", Noyke worried. "The general method of buying is probably useless, and we have too little time to cultivate an inside line. And even if we had an internal response, the General Hackreef would not have told a common servant such a secret. ”
"Is there a way for me to disguise myself and blend into Halfcliff's house? Like a valet, a gardener, or something?", Al asked, after a moment's silence.
"Please wait a moment. So saying, Noak walked out of the room, and after a while he came back with a leather bag.
"We have all the intelligence on file for any high-ranking Northern official like Hardcliffe. He explained, then handed the leather bag to Al.
"Young Master, all the information that can be detected by Hardcliffe is inside. ”
Al took the leather bag, which didn't contain much information, just two pieces of paper, but Al read it very slowly. He read it carefully word by word, for fear of missing a little.
"It's not easy. He sighed, "There are very few servants in this Hutcliff Mansion, and they have been with him for more than ten years, and the mansion has not recruited new people for many years, and it is almost impossible to sneak in without suspicion." ”
"Then I can only sneak in, but I can't find the account books alone. Al said.
"And there may be hidden mechanisms in the place where the account books are kept, and if you do it rashly, you will have the power of life. ", added Noek.
Al nodded, and began to think again, "There must be a way. ", he thought silently.
"An old soldier like a woman, loyal and dutiful," Al muttered as he kept his mouth on .......
"How do you know where a well-guarded, hidden secret is?"
"He alone knows this secret, and he wants to know this secret unless he reveals it himself......"
"By the way, let Hackreef tell us himself!", Al called out himself.
"How could Hackreef tell us?", everyone was puzzled by Al's words.
"The scandal in Bohemia. Al added.
"Bohemia?", everyone looked at each other, and Noek asked tentatively, "Master, what is Bohemia?" ”
"Haha, you don't have to worry about that, I came up with a method inspired by Mr. Holmes. Al shook his head and said with a smile.
As for who that Sherlock Holmes is, let everyone guess for themselves.
