Chapter 117: "No Such Man"

"Boss, I heard you're going to post your response to the astrologer who challenged you in the next issue of Comet?" This morning, Christina came to the office in a hurry and asked Monet.

Monet nodded and replied, "yes, what's wrong?" ”

"Well, can you post this response on Reader's Digest, after all, the new magazine is the one that needs the most exposure!" Christina pleaded.

Monet replied a little helplessly: "Actually, I also want to post it in "Reader's Digest", but the problem is that after "Reader's Digest" is on the market for half a month, if I delay for so long to respond, then maybe there will be people I am afraid of this astrologer!" ”

Christina understood Monet's concerns, because if this kind of response is late, it is better not to respond, so she gritted her teeth and said: "Boss, don't worry, I'm going to urge everyone to work overtime, and it will definitely be listed next week at the latest, do you think it's okay?" ”

Monet thought for a moment, and then agreed: "Okay, then you as soon as possible, if you really can't catch up, then I can only post it on "Comet". Then he added: "By the way, don't delay the quality of Reader's Digest because you're in a hurry!" ”

"Boss, don't worry, it won't be!" Christina assured.

Shortly after Christina left, Monet was about to go to the café for a "drink" when Michael walked in and said to him, "Teacher, something very strange happened to me!" ”

"That Professor Moriarty is looking for you again?" Monet asked with a perk-sessed spirit.

Michael shook his head and replied, "It has nothing to do with Professor Moriarty, it's another matter." ”

Hearing that it had nothing to do with "Professor Moriarty", Monet's interest decreased a lot, but he still asked with a strong spirit: "What's going on?" ”

"Well, didn't I learn from you recently how to draw a portrait based on someone else's description? It just so happened that a friend of mine met a girl in front of New York University a week ago who made him fall in love at first sight, but he didn't know this girl, and he only saw it, and then the girl got into a taxi and left, so I didn't have time to ask the girl's name, so I thought about helping him and drew the girl according to his description.

At that time, we thought that since this girl came out of New York University, it means that she is likely to be a student of New York University or a family member of a student or teacher! Michael explained.

Monet nodded and replied: "Well, your analysis is very reasonable, if you draw very similarly, then go to the school and ask around, you should be able to get clues." ”

I saw Michael raise his head a little proudly and said: "Because you taught well, and I also followed your guidance to draw at the gate of New York University, so it should be a good drawing, and several students and teachers have said that they have seen this girl on campus." ”

But then her face darkened: "But the problem is that this girl has never spoken to anyone, and even when she stepped forward to take the initiative to talk, she just shook her head, so she couldn't find any clues at all, so I want to ask the teacher for your help, don't you know Sheriff Klein, can you ask them to help the police investigate?" ”

Monet refused without hesitation: "How is this possible? This is not a case, how can the police waste their resources to investigate this kind of thing. ”

But then the conversation changed: "However, I can find another person to help you with this, and I'm sure he must be interested in this kind of thing." ”

"Oh? Who is it? Michael asked curiously.

Monet didn't answer directly, but picked up the phone on the table and dialed a number: "Albert, I have a very interesting event here, I need your help, do you have time?" ”

"There's time, there's time, I'll come here, Mr. Monet!" Albert on the other end of the phone said yes.

"Teacher, isn't Albert learning to write detectives with you? Can he help with that? Michael questioned.

Monet explained: "Although Albert is now learning to write detectives with me, he actually prefers to be detectives, especially those kind of bizarre cases, so he must be interested in this matter."

And I think since many people in the school have seen this girl, it means that there must be people in the school who know her, but maybe you didn't find a place because you didn't have enough manpower, but it was certainly not a problem for Albert! ”

In fact, Monet guessed correctly, and Albert immediately became very interested when he heard about it, and immediately began to visit New York University with people.

A few days later, Albert found Monet with a happy face, and Monet asked, "Have you found that girl?" ”

Albert shook his head and replied, "Not found!" ”

"Why are you so happy if you didn't find it?" Monet asked curiously.

Albert explained: "It's because I didn't find it, which is why it's interesting." To be honest, I wasn't very interested when I heard about it, but thinking that this was the first time Mr. Monet asked me to do something, I would definitely have to do it for you, but after some investigation, I found that this matter was not simple, it was the special event I had been looking for, so I was naturally happy! ”

Monet sighed in his heart that this rich man's thoughts were really different from normal people, but he still asked: "What's so interesting about this thing?" ”

Albert collected his thoughts for a moment, and then replied, "Yes, according to the description of you and Michael, I visited New York University with a portrait, and it is true that many people have seen this girl, but because she never speaks, no one knows who she is." Fortunately, after a long period of investigation, I finally learned that this girl had been seen coming out of the room of Mr. Okocha, a lecturer at the medical school, so I went to inquire about this teacher, and finally learned that this girl was his cousin Jenny, but now she has returned to England! ”

Monet sighed and said, "It seems that Gatun will not have a chance to meet this girl who made him fall in love at first sight for the time being." (Gaden was Michael's friend, the one who fell in love with Jenny at first sight.) )

But then he asked, "But I didn't find this interesting thing?" ”

"Teacher, don't worry, my original intention was to help people to the end, and directly help Michael's friend find the address of Jenny's house, but I was surprised to find that Mr. Okocha does have a relative in Coomburg, England, but there is no such cousin named Jenny who looks very similar to him! Teacher, do you think this is interesting? Albert asked with a smile.
