Chapter 129: Detective Isenger's Assignment

If Louise knew that her butterfly had finally begun to flap its wings, causing some trivial changes to the original story, how would she be happy, or confused......

It's a pity that she has no way of knowing for the time being.

For the whole day, Louise did only one activity: shopping.

The house at 59 Eglam Street was too shabby to match her persona, so Louise went out to Beckland's largest department store, Philip's Department.

Strange to say, in her past and present life, she has never been keen on shopping, but this time, she had a good time shopping with the maid lady...... Probably because I am very rich now, I can easily buy whatever I want, and I don't have to think about the price......

Alas, the life of a rich man is so simple and boring.

In the evening, the master and servant returned with a full load, and Louise was surprised to find that the "soothsayer" lady had a serious expression.

She restrained her smile and asked, "What happened?" ”

Katrin led her to the room, where an earthy package was placed on the table, and a faint smell of blood came from it.

Louise's face froze, and she stepped forward, and found that the package contained a dead heart, the size of a fist, and the whole body was blood-red, and the blood on the surface had long since dried up.

She frowned, but she was not much uncomfortable, and said in a firm tone:

"This thing doesn't belong to humans."

"Who sent it?"

Katrin shook her head and explained earnestly, "Someone left this package outside the door, and the servant found it, and I thought there was something wrong and opened it, and it is like this. ”

"Can it be traced through divination?"

Louise asked, casually closing the package, covering the slightly bloody image.

Catherine, who maintains the sensitivity of a "soothsayer", has already performed divination in the first place, and she replies:

"After passing through the hands of too many people, the breath is mixed, and there is no way to divination."

Louise bowed her head slightly, and Miss "Fortune Teller's" answer was expected by her, because the package did not have the influence of extraordinary power, but only seemed to be intimidating......

I just came to Beckland, and I didn't have time to make a grudge against someone......

The first person that Louise thought of was Major General Bright, but with the other party's personality, there is a high probability that he will come to the door and do it directly...... What's more, how could he find out that I was not Joyce now, but Louise......

As for the Viscount Connor and Miss Audrey, they must have nothing to do with it...... Other than that, only the owner of the house, from Baron Bartley, remained.

He fell into a trap that was carefully designed, and almost went bankrupt, and his only daughter was cursed by an unknown extraordinary, and if he hadn't met him, he was afraid that his family would have been ruined......

Now that Bartley's father and daughter have gone to live with Dicy, the person who designed him has found him?

Louise didn't know many people in Beckland, and she quickly figured out the most likely cause of the intimidation in her mind, but she was still puzzled...... Is this necessary?

It's not enough to cheat people out of their property...... Even if you really want to kill them all, why are you chasing Dixi, bullying me such a poor, rented "ordinary person"......

"How?" Catelyn asked.

Louise thought for a few seconds, smiled, and said:

"This kind of thing naturally has to be handled by professionals."

Professional ...... Police? Wouldn't it be a wild extraordinary person to go to the police...... Catelyn thought in surprise.

Louise naturally did not go to the police, not because she was afraid of trouble, but because she felt that the efficiency of the police in this era was too slow, and the "professional" in her mouth meant detectives, and detectives who were extraordinary......

One of Beckland's most well-known great detectives, a member of the "Church of Knowledge and Wisdom", Detective Issinger.

Because Louise was most familiar with the great detective, and considering that there might be extraordinary factors involved in this matter, it was not a good idea to involve ordinary detectives...... And Detective Issinger is an existence that can confront the "Apostle of Desire" in Sequence 5 for a long time, and even if it is dangerous, it will not be fatal......

If it weren't for the fact that Crane hadn't come to Beckland, maybe he could take care of Mr. Fool's business...... Well, forget it, leave it to Klein, maybe it will lead to a lot of trouble!

…………

"Dear Miss, is there anything I can help you with?"

Walking into the detective office, a well-dressed manservant stepped forward to greet him.

Louise smiled and responded, "I want to post a commission, is Detective Issinger here?" ”

The manservant replied in the affirmative: "Yes." ”

"Please come with me, do you prefer coffee or black tea?"

"Black tea." Louise walked into the living room, watched the manservant skillfully make black tea, and asked aloud:

"You're Detective Isengard's assistant, what's your name?"

The manservant placed the steaming black tea on the table and politely replied, "My name is Abu, and I am Mr. Detective's newly recruited assistant. ”

"Thank you."

Louise said, and then tasted a small sip, worthy of a big detective agency, the quality of the black tea is quite good.

Soon, Detective Issinger, with blue eyes and gray temples, appeared and said enthusiastically: "Sorry to keep you waiting, a customer has just left." ”

"You're welcome." Louise stood up and responded politely.

The two sat down separately, and Issinger formally asked, "What commission do you want to issue?" ”

Louise motioned to the "soothsayer" lady behind her to open the package in her hand, explaining:

"Yesterday, someone dropped this package on my doorstep, and I want to know who its owner is?"

Issinger glanced at the dried heart in the package, turned to look at Louise with a flat face, pondered for a few seconds, and took out his pipe, but did not light it.

"This looks like a gangster in Beckland, who have you provoked lately?" He asked in a deep voice.

"What a well-known detective in Beckland!"

Louise smiled and complimented, and then began to tell her story:

"Shortly after I arrived in Beckland, I bought a house in Agram Street, owned by Mr. Bartley, a baron who had incurred a great deal of debt for gambling and had sold most of his property and disappeared......"

"In addition, I haven't had time to make friends in Beckland, so according to my guess, this package may be related to this matter, and as for the more detailed process, I will entrust you to investigate."

Isinger played with the pipe in his hand, listening to Lu Yi's flat and straightforward narration without any emotion, experience told him that the woman in front of him may not be simple, after all, where would a normal rich lady be so calm when she encounters this kind of thing...... And she did not say what to do with the results of the investigation, which is enough to prove that she has nothing to fear......

"For a week, the commission fee is seventy pounds."

Then, the thin-cheeked Issinger added: "Because it involves aristocrats, most detectives will not accept this commission, so the price will be relatively high." ”

Louise naturally didn't bargain, and she took out thirty pounds in cash:

"It is because I heard about your reputation that I am here, this is the first deposit, and I look forward to the results of your investigation."

"It's a pleasure to work with."

"Happy cooperation, if there is any news, I will keep you informed."

Issinger stood up to see Louise departing, took out a brass ornament from his coat pocket, and rubbed it in the palm of his hand instead of the smooth pipe he had before.

The brass ornament was a small, spread out book with an eye erected in the center.
