"We're not going to take this commission right now, so please ask another detective. ”

Just as Lilith was about to hand over the money bag to Claire, and the other party was also happily preparing to take it, the tall Watson suddenly stood in front of Claire.

"It's not because of the lack of money, in fact, this money is already sky-high in our opinion, but ...... Anyway, we won't take it. ”

"Watson, you've got a rusty head, aren't you!?"

"Wait, Kreel. ”

Lilith took the purse back and looked at Watson. It seems that this guy who seems to be a detective's assistant is actually no worse than a detective. At the very least, he was hundreds of times stronger than Claire in his instincts for danger.

"So, can I ask why? It's just a matter of investigating one person, and there's so much pay, why don't you take it?"

"It's because there is so much remuneration that I can't take it. ”

Watson said, "The difficulty of the task on the surface is not proportional to the amount of money, which is unreasonable, and since you are willing to pay such a high price, it means that the potential risk of this commission is too great." I'm sorry, but Claire and I are just assistants and detectives, and we don't want to get involved in any national affairs. ”

That's right......

"Well, that's right. This can already be regarded as a national event. ”

Lilith simply stopped hiding it, because there is a way to lie to lie, and truth also has the effect of telling the truth, "I doubt this woman, but I have a lot less evidence to be able to give her ...... The evidence of the arrest, that's why I want you to investigate her. While there are a lot of risks associated with this, have you ever wondered how your reputation will improve when you do it? I think it should be the result of competition in the industry, don't you want to surpass your opponents?"

“......”

"Hey! Watson. If you don't accept this entrustment, I will take it. ”

Claire suddenly snatched the money bag from Lilith's hand. This also invisibly symbolizes the beginning of the commission, "If you don't come, don't share my money anyway, I don't care if it's dangerous or not, in short, I don't want to lose to the two souls of Van Dyne and Knox." ”

"Van Dynene?" Lilith tilted her head, "These are the two of you rivals?"

"That's right, Nia Van Dyne, Faye Knox, it's those two souls who are stealing my job. ”

Probably because of anger. Claire was a little confused, "Ahhhh......h

"Ahem, then I'll take my leave first, I'll send you her information soon, goodbye. ”

Inside the house, Claire seemed to be still complaining, and Watson continued to do the laundry after a few reluctant turns.

Van Dyne and Knox, though?

It may be too boring to be alone, but this time, maybe there is a different way.

Following. In a spacious room comparable to an aristocratic mansion, the girl sitting in front of the chair was combing her smooth black hair. While looking at the various papers on the table.

Some of them are written in black and white, and some are attached with pictures, but these things have long been unable to get the slightest attention from girls.

Because she has been able to devote herself to a commission for a long time, the reason is very simple, these commissions on the table, like a child's hide and seek, are too simple. It's too hard to get her interested.

"To do this kind of commission is to smear the name of Van Dyne's family......"

Nia Van Dyne breathed a sigh of relief. Putting all the commissions in order, "Wait a minute, give these to that workaholic." ”

Fenox. As her opponent, she has completely different values from herself, and in her eyes, even if it is an ordinary commission to find a cat, she will not hesitate to follow and complete it seriously.

But in this way, it also tortured her body on the extreme distance, so Fei's body could not be described as weak. Maybe after adding so many things to her, she will really vomit blood and die?

"It's better for that little ghost. It's not bad to think of it as food. ”

Nya muttered.

"Nia, Lady Nia......! There's a big thing!

The maid ran in breathlessly, waving a letter in her hand like a flag.

"Letter?"

"Yes, yes. This letter was sent by the dean himself, and it was signed by you to open it yourself. ”

"That old woman. ”

Nia thought about it, but still took the letter and picked up the knife.

Although she didn't think that Frey would send her any commissions that would make her interested, it should be regarded as an obligation, and this kind of commission from high-level people in the country still had to be completed honestly. Before the identity of a detective, she was considered a citizen.

"This is not the old woman's handwriting......"

As soon as she opened the envelope, Nia noticed the anomaly, but she was immediately attracted by the contents of the letter.

Unprecedented interest was tormenting Nia as she read the letter word for word.

[Hello, Detective Nia Van Dyne. It was I who commissioned Frey to send a letter in her name, and you may call me L. 】

[I have a commission that I want to ask you, but there is no gratuity, firstly because you don't need the money anymore, and secondly, because if you are not careful, you will not even have a chance to get the money. 】

[See the photo in the envelope?] I provided her basic information, but I would like to entrust you with more information about her. Strange, why am I writing about you? Hahaha, why do you think so?]

"This guy...... Is it not just me who sent the letter?"

Nia's hand holding the envelope tightened unconsciously, and now, not only interest, but even the competitive mood came out of her heart irrepressibly.

[I've asked three detectives, Claire Holmes, Finox, and you, Nia Van Dyne. Whoever gives me the decisive evidence first will win this game, and I will prepare the corresponding prizes, I think what you need most is a bigger reputation. 】

[Rules, detectives can't expose their own existence to the target because of the fight, but when the target is not aware of it, you ...... You can get in the way of other detectives at will. Second, no one else is allowed, I only allow one detective, plus a maximum of one assistant. Because your goal is not so simple fools. 】

[If you can really get to the point, you will understand what the evidence is that determines the outcome of the game, and at that time, please give it to Dean Frey.] Also, it's best not to waste time investigating who I am, I think my secrecy should be good. 】

"War between detectives...... This guy is really not afraid of messing up. ”

After carefully putting the letter away, Nia leaned back in her chair.

This game, from the first moment I saw the letter, I can't refuse, I believe that even that workaholic Fei will put down all the commissions in his hands to fight with himself.

The can't eat enough Claire doesn't care for the time being, but Fei, compared to your Van Dyne surname, who is more outstanding in the end, just use this commission to compete, and bet on the name of the detective. (To be continued)
