Christine hadn't come back for dinner, and he occasionally went out to socialize, and everyone got used to it.

After dinner, Hobart went to observe Raft as usual, and as usual, he reappeared at the table, sweating and spending money on gambling.

Tomorrow, ask "Miss Justice" to help investigate, and once you're sure that Raft is indeed a gambler, it's not too late to take the next step.

After coming out of the "Land of Disorder", Hobart pondered about Raft, the three cases in his hand, and the Tarot meeting tomorrow, and gradually fell asleep.

……

On the southern continent, in the upper reaches of the Hordis River, there are no small towns.

Because the town does not exist in the eyes of people outside the town, the name of the town is called "non-existent" town.

The "low-order" extraordinaries gathered as was customary, and their status was checked by the "medium-rank" clansmen.

In this cursed family, most of the Extraordinary have died out of control and suicide, and very few have actually died at the hands of the enemy, so there is a custom to check the status of the Extraordinary ones every week.

Since most of the people died in the town, the extraordinary traits of this family have not been lost much for hundreds of years, and on the contrary, they have accumulated a large number of extraordinary traits in other ways through battle. If it weren't for the curse, they would have been able to establish at least a Sequence 9 through 6 "Corpse Collector" pathway, and a Sequence 9 through 5 "Prisoner" path.

Elliot in Sequence 8 is also in the "Low Sequence" queue, and he is the subject of a high-profile check-in, as he showed signs of losing control during a routine inspection a week ago and was forbidden to leave the town.

Calvin, the "middle sequence" powerhouse in charge of the inspection, was Elliott's uncle, and he couldn't believe his eyes: "Elliott, you, all the signs of your loss of control are gone?" ”

And his whole body was in order, in stark contrast to the previous incongruity.

Everyone looked at this side, in the absence of a small town, generally speaking, loss of control is irreversible, as long as there are signs of loss of control, we must pay attention to it, because complete loss of control is only a matter of one day sooner or later.

Elliott once again praised the mysterious presence on the Iron Throne in his heart, and he had already thought of an excuse: "Thanks to the 'Rex Law' (the Balk family called the method of fighting the curse taught by Rex 'Rex'), I didn't expect that those methods would play a key role in a critical time. ”

Everyone nodded or wondered, but the routine inspection continued, and everyone stopped paying attention to Elliott's side.

Calvin shook his head, the "Rex Law" will have an effect, but it won't be so great, if he hadn't noticed that the curse on Elliott's body was still there, he would have to report it to the elders immediately.

"Uncle Calvin, can I continue my mission outside the town?" Elliott asked.

Calvin came back to his senses: "Yes, you have no problem, you can come and go in and out of the town freely." ”

Regardless, it's a good thing that the signs of loss of control on Elliott are gone.

……

As soon as the carriage arrived on the street of the law firm, Hobert saw Mr. Robin standing at the door of the office.

It was Mr. Robin, the defendant in the first case that Hobert took over, who auctioned off his house last week and paid off his debts.

Bai Minglan Street, where the law firm is located, is a street where all kinds of law firms, service companies and other service industries are concentrated, and these small enterprises will make their signboards bright and brightly decorate the company's carriages, so as to attract the attention of potential customers and demonstrate the company's financial resources and capabilities.

The people who came here in search of services were also well-dressed Beckland upper-class people, as well as middle-class people who valued decency.

Gorgeous carriages and glossy pedestrians came and went, but Mr. Robin was an exception, and he still looked out of place on the street in his shabby coat and patched hat.

Hobert stepped out of the carriage: "Mr. Robin." ”

Mr. Robin took off his hat a little awkwardly: "Mr. Hobert, I, I hope to get your help. ”

"Please follow me." Hobart took Mr. Robin into the office to hear what difficulties he was experiencing.

Hobert, who shared an office with five other paralegals, was the first to arrive, and there was no one else in the office, so Hobart invited Mr. Robin to sit down at his desk and offered him a glass of water: "What legal difficulties have you encountered?" ”

Mr. Robin clutched his hat tightly, "I don't know if it's a legal difficulty, sir." ”

"Tell me about it."

"My investment can't be considered a failure, I've been cheated." Mr. Robin recounted: "My cousin approached me six months ago and said that Mr. Zachary, who runs an insurance company, was in financial trouble.

"Mr. Zachary is willing to sell some of his shares in order to survive the difficult times, and he is looking for people to invest in it.

"My cousin got a 0.8% power of attorney for the shares, but he needed £1,600 and he couldn't come up with that much money on his own, so he came to me to buy it in partnership, and we each paid £800 and the proceeds were divided equally.

"Sir, this is a good investment opportunity for us, and if we complete the deal, I will receive a dividend of about two hundred pounds a year, which is about the same as my salary.

"I asked around about Mr. Zachary's insurance company and the answer was that it was very profitable, so I scraped together £1,600 with my cousin and closed the equity deal."

Speaking of this, Mr. Robin's expression became bitter: "It wasn't until more than a month later that we learned that the insurance company had not sold shares at all, and their insurance company did not have a Zachary person at all. ”

Hobert asked, "Didn't you call the police?" Is the share power of attorney still in place? ”

"It was only after we called the police that we learned that Zachary was the boss of a gang in the East Side, and he had disappeared half a month before we called the police." Mr. Robin said: "It was through the police that we learned that there were many people who had been deceived like us.

"The share power of attorney is still there, but it has been proven to be a forgery." As he spoke, he pulled out a power of attorney for shares.

Hobert's first reaction was: Is the scammer playing?

He thought for a moment before he said helplessly: "I'm sorry Mr. Robin, I'm not a police officer, so I can't help you find a fugitive." ”

"No, no," said Mr. Robin, "I am not asking you to help me find someone, but my cousin and I have been searching for and investigating Zachry, and we have accidentally learned that Zachary is actually working for a gentleman named Heyman.

"We don't know how to find evidence against, so we're asking for your help."

He continued, "If you can help us recover that money, we're willing to use 20 percent of it for your legal fees." ”

Under Mr. Robin's eager gaze, Hobart said, "I can't agree to it right now, I'm going to investigate it first, leave me an address, and I'll write to you if my investigation progresses." ”

He said, "Tell me more about your investigation. ”

"Thank you for your help!" Mr. Robin's eyes were red and he said that they had already approached a number of lawyers, but none of them were willing to help them, and that Hobart was the only one who was willing to know more.
