"Sir, I've memorized Charles' traits and I'll be able to complete the survey in just a week!"

In the carriage back to the city, Wiggins, who had come to confirm his target, assured Grandin with excitement.

"The other party is not only a fraudster, but also a murderer with blood on his hands. Judging by today's contact, he is arrogant, cunning, and suspicious...... He is known to live in Joe Wood and travels by carriage to the stock exchange in Hilston on weekdays.

But I don't think he's going to wronged himself in life, and he must have other strongholds in Beckland, and I need you to help me find it. ”

Grandin handed Wiggins the information he had put together, and added: "He still has bodyguards by his side, please pay attention to your own safety during the investigation." ”

When he approached Charles today, he found that about ten meters away from him, there was a line of sight that had been staring at him. This covert watcher gives him a certain sense of oppression, and should be the extraordinaire of Sequence 8.

The Extraordinaire of the Higher Order, Grandin thinks that Charles cannot afford to be invited.

The Extraordinary Man was ten meters away from the protection target. Either Charles doesn't like to be up close to others, or the bodyguard is extraordinarily confident in his skills.

Grandin recalls Charles's desperate look at the escape exit at first, and thinks the latter is more likely. In order not to arouse suspicion, he also did not look closely when he left, but the bodyguard was physically fit and quite conspicuous in the crowd.

"Sequence 8's 'Martial Artist' or 'Barbarian'?"

Grandin pondered.

"Sir, are you the one?"

Wiggins lowered his voice and asked in a low voice.

"What?"

"The vigilante in Russell the Great's novel!"

Wiggins said in a subdued tone:

"During the day, he is a playboy who does not learn anything. At night, it's the Dark Knight who punishes criminals! ”

"I'm an investment manager and my side hustle is ...... Detective. ”

Grandin began to have a headache.

"I know that righteous partners always have multiple identities."

Wiggins nodded in agreement.

"Whatever you want. Take this with you by the way, and throw it out when you're in danger. ”

Grandin handed over the "Sleep Charm" he had made and taught Wiggins to pronounce the priming phrase 'sleep' in Hermes.

Everything has a spirit, and ordinary people can use charms. It's just that when the spell is activated, it will probably drain his spirit and make him seriously ill, but this is better than dying outright.

"What is this? Is this the kind of prop in the novel that helps superheroes overcome the enemy? ”

Wiggins took the round piece of silver engraved with a mysterious pattern, and his eyes were brighter than the silver.

"Bomb!"

Grandin replied angrily.

Half of his mind was already on the Black Lake, and he observed the branches that represented Wiggins' fate. When Wiggins accepted the mission, it didn't change, indicating that the risk of the mission was manageable.

He looked at the Tetrahedron Crystal of Good Fortune with distressed eyes, which had reverted to the form of an illusory fruit. The £100 ticket had drained its stored fortune, and now it had to wait for it to recover over time.

The odds are 1 to 6, and quantitatively speaking, the tetrahedral good fortune crystallized to give Grandin 500 pounds of good luck.

Grandin summed it up secretly.

Because Roger's wish has not been fulfilled yet, the hexahedron good luck crystal brought by Roger cannot be used by him for the time being.

This made it a pity for Grandin, who wanted to do further comparative experiments.

It took another little over an hour to get home from the suburbs, and he dropped Wiggins down halfway through. At the end, Grandin was just in time for the feast to begin.

This made him blamed by the little maid.

Grandin invited all the neighbors around, and his dining room obviously couldn't afford it, so the party was held in buffet style.

The whole invitation was too hasty, but because Mrs. Morgan came forward, it went well, and the neighbors were all there.

The party was a success.

The professional planning team put the empty lawn to good use, and they created a bunch of children's play equipment on the lawn, which was a good drain on the exuberant energy of the bear children who had nowhere to put them.

Queens' chefs have plenty of ingredients to make the party a variety of delicious treats: plump caviar, sheer ham, pan-fried foie gras on bread......

On the long dining table, bottles of misty champagne and South Wel red wine are neatly stacked. During the dinner, Grandin shared the bottle of 1330 Ormill red wine with the gentlemen, accompanied by music.

The high-level luncheon made the guests smack their tongues, and they all guessed the value of the banquet host in their hearts.

The lively party even attracted the police.

"Gentlemen! Any major events and parades must first be reported to West Villas Field! ”

Two police officers held batons, one on the left and one on the right, protecting the shouting inspector.

"Don't be nervous, it's just a regular family gathering." Grandin hurriedly ran out to explain the misunderstanding before the mess broke out.

"It's you! Hello, Inspector. At a glance, he recognized the Chinese-faced inspector standing in the middle with his hands behind his back.

"So it's you, Mr. Grandin, hello." The Inspector breathed a sigh of relief, "Your family gathering is not small...... I'm sorry, but the recent demonstrations and vicious cases have made the entire National Police Agency tense their nerves, and those newspapers have started to talk about it at this time. ”

I understand, Mr. Inspector.

He thought of the headline on the front page of today's newspaper – 'Crime is at a new high!' The West Villas field is helpless! ’

"Ugh." Grandin sighed in unison, and stuffed the three police gentlemen with cigarettes from Sibailang.

"That's right, Mr. Inspector. How's the Charles fraud case going? ”

Because he was also involved in the case, it was natural for him to ask the question.

"No progress, Charles's hands and feet are clean, he doesn't have any handles...... I think when the limelight passes, the National Police Agency will close the case with Roger's suicide. ”

The Inspector shook his head and slipped the cigarette into his pocket.

"Have you checked that gentleman's bank account?" Grandin handed over another Cigar from Byron, and under the box was a 10 gold pound note.

"We checked it right away, and his account balance was a good fit for his role as an investment manager. Instead, our officers made some discoveries while following them. ”

The Inspector lowered his voice, and Grandin listened intently.

"We found out that before he went to the gold-encrusted roses, he would go to the herbalist shop and buy a decoction made of mummy powder. The effects of this agent are said to satisfy both men and women. ”

The Inspector winked at Grandin.

The Inspector should be glad that Grandin's 'monster' sequence doesn't allow him to shoot light with his eyes.

Grandin's face was tense now, and he smiled reluctantly.

He has already made up his mind to report it anonymously to the newspaper tonight!

He had all the titles in mind.

'Shocked! Sivelas field blatant bribery! ’
