Hobert rode to the law firm in a horse-drawn carriage, and when he sat in his office chair, his shoulders were still a little sore.

After adjusting his state, he first wrote down the things he was going to do this week on a piece of paper, and then roughly arranged the order of these things.

He plans to investigate what Mr. Robin said about Zachary first, this case is more complicated, he can start the investigation first, and then summarize the clues and evidence.

The other three cases Barton gave him were relatively simpler, and could be placed slightly further back.

As for how to investigate Zachary, Hobart thought of a breakthrough: the mob boss of the East Side, Ville.

Since Zachary is also a gang leader on the East End, Will, as a fellow traveler, should know something about him.

Around nine o'clock in the morning, Hobert ordered a cab and went to the mercenary club first.

Thanks to Barton's lawyer's reputation, Hobart was certified to carry a gun this morning, and he went to the club to buy a revolver.

It is believed that in the process of investigating Zachary, the revolver can be used.

At about half past ten, Hobert rode in a carriage to the Blue Knight Bar in the East End.

It was still the same place, and although it was morning, you could hear the unbridled laughter coming from inside far away.

As soon as the door opened, the strong smell and noise came to his face, and Hobert first saw a short man walking towards him, and when he got closer, he recognized that it was Hugh wearing a man's hat.

"Mr. Hobert, we meet again." Hugh smiled.

As soon as she said this, the bar immediately fell silent.

Hobert said, "Yes, Miss Hugh, it's nice to see you 'in peace' with Will!" "What kind of nerves do you have while observing the drunkards around you?

After about a second or two, suddenly a drunkard suddenly said, "Mr. Hobert, my arm was dislocated when I was young, and I can't do heavy work since, do you think it can be saved?" ”

As he spoke, he showed his skinny arms and asked Hobart for a diagnosis.

Hobert was stunned, did he look like a doctor?

Another drunkard said, "Mr. Hobert, my leg was injured last year, and it hurts a lot during the rainy season, you see......"

Hugh suddenly exclaimed, "I've said it many times, he's not a doctor!" ”

Although she is small, her voice and momentum are amazing, so that drunkards dare not look at her.

Hobert lamented that in terms of dealing with this kind of scene, the extraordinary ability of the "arbitrator" is better than the extraordinary ability of the "lawyer", and the "lawyer" needs to be "persuaded" one by one in the same situation.

At this time, Vir trotted over: "Sir, why are you here?" "The attitude is quite deferential.

At this time, Hobert also realized that it was he who asked Emlin to heal Will's injuries, and Vir naturally concealed this matter, so everyone mistook him for a doctor with a miracle potion.

Thinking of this, Hobert smiled and said to everyone: "I have disappointed everyone, I am a lawyer, I can bankrupt the murderer who injured you, but I can't cure everyone's illness." ”

Hearing the words "bankrupt", everyone instinctively shrank their heads, and no one dared to ask Hobart to help them diagnose them.

Hobert then turned to Will: "I'm here to learn from you about a gang leader named Zachary. ”

Will was stunned for a moment, and did not answer Hobert's question, but looked at Miss Hugh, who walked to the door, and Hugh stopped, and walked back step by step.

Hobert immediately understood: "Miss Hugh is also here to ask you about Zachry?" ”

Will looked at Hugh and then at Hobert before smiling, "Yes, sir." I've only met Zachary a few times, and his territory is over the cuckoo's bar, and you can go there and ask. ”

Hobert looked at Hugh, "Miss Hugh is going to go to the Cuckoo's Bar?" ”

"That's right." Hugh did not hide his purpose.

"I think we can go together."

The two of them walked out as they spoke, and Vill breathed a sigh of relief, these two people he couldn't afford to mess with were gone.

When Hobert arrived at the door, he suddenly turned back to Vir and said, "Do less conscience-destroying things, and you may not have the good luck this time next time." ”

Will was stunned for a moment, this was a warning, but also a reminder, and he quickly said, "Yes." ”

But Hobert didn't listen to Will's answer, and when Ville answered, all that was left was the creaking of the two doors and the back of the deterioration.

Hobert and Hugh walked briskly down the run-down, homeless streets of the East End.

Hobert smiled, "Let me guess, did Miss Hugh receive a commission about the insurance company's share fraud?" ”

Hugh said coolly: "That's right. "The men's hat on her head suits her current temperament.

"We have a common goal." Hobert took the lead and used his extraordinary abilities: "Maybe we can exchange clues, or start a deeper collaboration." ”

When Hugh returned to the bar, he had the idea of exchanging information with Hobart, but she was not enthusiastic about cooperating.

But she didn't know why, and suddenly felt as if she couldn't wait to agree to Hobert's invitation: "Yes, but there is one condition." ”

"You say."

"Can you stop going so fast?"

Hobert looked at Hugh's two little short legs, "I'm sorry, I didn't care about the lady's feelings. So, should we find a place to have a good chat? After all, I just got her out of prison. ”

This time Hobert's extraordinary ability did not work, and Hugh smiled, "I will thank Miss Audrey, I don't think that noble lady will treat you badly." ”

Hobert said: "I beg my pardon for not agreeing with you, it only took me one day to help you solve your trouble, isn't this efficiency enough for you to express your gratitude?" ”

Hugh pointed to a café not far away, "I don't want to reason with you, since you insist that I thank you, then I will invite you to a cup of coffee to say thank you." ”

"Theory, theory?" Only then did Hobert realize in hindsight why he was arguing with Hugh about such a trivial matter?

Then it occurred to him that this couldn't be a side effect of the "lawyer's" potion, right?

Hobert was stunned, Hugh had already entered the café first, and he hurried to catch up.

One asks for a cheap cup of coffee, and Hugh talks about the commission she has received, which is not unlike Hobert's conjecture, and Hugh has also received a commission in a similar situation to Mr. Robin.

Hobert concludes: "Zachary's scammers are all middle-class. ”

He said: "This class has savings, but no power, and even if they are cheated out of their savings, as long as there are no obvious clues, the police will not try to investigate."

"If the same thing happens to the aristocracy, with a little pressure, the police will have to work hard to handle the case."

"I have a similar conjecture." Hugh took a sip of his coffee and said, "So this is definitely a premeditated, planned scam. ”
