Chapter 828: Infiltrating the Prison
At noon, Abner gathered the "magic mirror", or "Cecia", who had gone through the various transfer procedures, and returned to the cottage provided by the "golf club" to have lunch with Furth, who had been staying here.
Picking up a piece of butter-fried mushrooms and putting it in his mouth, Abner chewed as he listened to Cecia's report:
"Hertha's house in GΓΌlen is okay because of the location and the decoration is quite luxurious, and the final estimate is 19,000 fils, and it was auctioned off after more than an hour after being listed at the auction house, and the final price is 22,000 fils.
"In addition, his 1% stake in Suhit, as well as shares in the shipping company, since Hertha has already signed the agreement, can be transferred to your name in a day or two at most, provided that the formalities are in order."
The "transfer agreement" taken out by the "mirror apostle" Hertha is obviously a document that has gone through the formal procedures and is only one step away from taking effect, otherwise the "answer maze" would not have recognized its value...... This is convenient for Abner.
After drinking a glass of authentic Intis white wine, Abner wiped his mouth and asked, "Is there any news about the newspaper I asked you to inquire about?" β
"Cecia" nodded under the control of the "Magic Mirror", and said very smoothly: "Affected by the 'press control' bill, many newspapers in Trier are in turmoil, and several are already selling at low prices. β
"Which ones?" Abner asked with interest.
The East Coast Morning Post, the Celenzo Weekly and the Lane Newspaper...... There are also a number of tabloids that are also on the list, but those newspapers have limited influence and are not in keeping with your owner! As she spoke, Cecia picked up her "Magic Mirror" and displayed the addresses and specific conditions of these newspapers in the form of pictures.
"The Lane can't hold on?" Firth, who had been listening, was surprised, "This is the top three newspapers in Trier, and it is very influential in the entire Northern Continent!" β
She currently has a copy of the Lane newspaper in her hand, and the headline on the second page of the newspaper is "Prison Escapees Kill and Blame, Hero Detective Sees the Real Murderer"
"Cecia" thought for a moment, and in view of the relationship between Furth and her master, she answered her question: "Mr. Walter, the owner of the Lyne, was recently sentenced to 16 months in prison for defamation, and only after only a week in prison, he disappeared inexplicably...... This incident also became a fuse against 'press control'......
Mr. Wolff's son, Wolff Jr., was a conservative himself, and he did not like the newspaper business at home, and now he was at the center of public opinion, and he was not strong enough to leave the land of right and wrong in Trier...... That's why we have to sell newspapers. β
"I see......," Furth asked, curiously, "how did that Mr. Wolf disappear?" β
"This case happened last Friday night, and it is said that it has been handed over to Inspector Russell for investigation, but there is no result yet." "Cecia" means something authentic.
Last Friday...... Isn't that when a Blood Moon happens? Could it be that Mr. Wolfe's disappearance has something to do with the fall of the "primordial moon"?
And wasn't Inspector Russell the one who was judged by "Lion" Leon to be the "Apostle of Desire" of the North family? It's a coincidence.
Furth put a piece of bacon in his mouth as he thought about it.
"Let's put the Lane there for the time being, even if it lowers its price, it will be worth at least tens or even millions of fairs......
"Look back at the quotes from the Eastern Coast Morning Post and the Celenzo Weekly Newspaper, that's what I'm aiming for......," Abner instructed the "Magic Mirror" after a detailed look at the various newspapers.
Of course, in the end, it will have to be determined by "Lion" Leon, after all, this is the newspaper he promised to buy for it.
It is worth mentioning that the lion has been with Fanny since he got out of the car, and is not currently here at the club villa, which makes Furth breathe a sigh of relief.
"Yes, master." "Cecia" replied respectfully.
At this time, Abner recalled the conversation between Firth and "Cecia", and his heart moved, and he asked, "Do you know which prison Mr. Wolf was held in before?" β
"Located in Cara Prison in the Northeast District...... I'm sorry, master, I don't know the exact prison room number. "Cecia," she said, bowing her head.
"It's okay, that's enough." Abner was satisfied.
"Abner, you want to investigate this case?" Furth asked in surprise. In her mind, Abner wasn't a detective who liked to do much about detectives...... Unless the case is in his favor.
Abner smiled and replied, "That Mr. Wolf, there may be something to do with the person I'm looking for." β
If he really is a believer in the "Primordial Moon......
β¦β¦
Near 11 o'clock, Klein met the cowering fat pharmacist in the lounge of the Fragrant Leaves Bar.
He swept his gaze and was suddenly stunned, because this turned out to be his acquaintance as well.
Isn't this the fat pharmacist who likes to sarcastically mock others at the party convened by Mr. Beckland's "Eyes of Wisdom"? I even met each other in a circus......
He no longer appeared at the Gathering of the Extraordinary of the Old Mister of Wisdom Eye because he had left Beckland......
Crane took a closer look at the other man, and realized that he was wearing a taraba shirt, wide legged pants, and a thick brown jacket, dressed as a local.
In addition, a round-faced owl is quietly perched on Duckwell's right shoulder, staring at the adventurer opposite.
It's very similar to Miss Justice's look at the other members of the Tarot Society...... Maybe this owl is an extraordinary creature, the "spectator" type? Klein was judgmental, but he remained silent on the surface, and asked in a low voice:
"What commission did you call someone to come to me?"
"That's right." Hearing the other party's cold tone, the fat pharmacist subconsciously shrank his neck when he thought of the other party's achievements, and only after a while did he organize his words, "I want to ask you to help me save someone...... I was begging Abner, and he recommended you, saying you were more suitable. β
You say this as if I were Abner's spare tire...... I can't speak! Klein asked calmly while sneering:
"Where to save people? Who to save? Are there any dangers? β
Darkwell pursed his lips a few times and said:
"Go and rescue my teacher from the prison of the Doge's Palace...... Well, I can't be sure of the danger...... If, if the danger is beyond your ability, you can simply give it up, this is a promise we have agreed on now, and it will not ruin your reputation. β
If I hadn't known that you weren't always good enough to speak, I would have thought you were using the "agitation method...... Klein thought for a moment and said:
"What kind of pay can you pay?"
Darkwell wanted to quote the price that had been considered a long time ago, but he hesitated for a while, because he really couldn't determine the level of danger, even if he had Abner's face, if the chips were not enough, it would be difficult to impress Gelman Sparrow.
However, if the teacher is successfully rescued, can he pay for it? After all, this was meant to get him out of danger......
Just as Darkwell was thinking about it, Klein glanced at him and said coldly:
"You can think about it first.
"I'll go to the bathroom and come back and tell me the answer."
With that, he turned around, walked to the door, twisted the handle, and stepped out.
His response seemed sophisticated, with a kind of chic and ruthlessness that belongs to adventurers and bounty hunters, but in reality, he didn't really want to give the fat medicine man time to think, he was purely looking for an opportunity to go to the bathroom and go to the gray mist for divination.
This is the key to whether he wants to take on the task or not! Although he had long deliberately pretended to be arrested and entered the Governor's Palace, it was only convenient to save people.
After a while, Crane returned to the break room and asked:
"Have you figured it out?"
He had already soothed above the grey mist, and this quest would not make his plan more difficult.
"1,000 pounds, and our friendship, I mean my friendship with my teacher." Darkwell said not too confidently.
Klein was silent for a few seconds and said:
"Yes.
"Also, you'll have to provide some information about the Doge's Palace."
The intelligence is good, there are often guards to buy medicine from me, and I know a lot about the Governor's Palace...... Darkwell breathed a sigh of relief, nodded his head and said:
"I'll sort it out for you later...... However, I will only pay you 300 pounds in advance, and he will pay you the rest when the teacher is rescued. β
Klein nodded calmly:
"Deal."
β¦β¦
Backed by canals, the north-east of Trier is the smallest of all the city's districts.
Located on the canal, Cara Prison was originally a baron's castle, but during the reign of Russell, the baron lost his title and moved his family to Marceek, so it was converted into a prison.
Since it was only a prison for ordinary people, Abner easily bypassed the guards and entered a cell with a large hole in the top.
"This was knocked open from the inside?
"It seems that on the night of the blood moon last week, Mr. Wolf really changed?!"
