While the detective was talking to his assistant about tax rates, Hugo abruptly changed the subject-

"When I wasn't a detective, I imagined what a detective agency would look like in the future."

The detective didn't know why the topic seemed to be very interesting, and the curiosity of Bilan was fully aroused, and the girl followed the topic with great interest: "Hugo, what was your dream workplace like at that time?" ”

"In my imagination, it would have been a cramped apartment in an office building, with a crooked sign for the office at the door, documents stacked on top of each other, and a living room littered with loot from various cases, and every client who came to the door would regret that they had gone to the wrong place." The detective replied without hesitation.

"Wow-" Bilan exhaled as she looked around at the well-cleaned interior of the Yuqi Mansion, and remembered the spacious courtyard that would be shocked every time she went out, "That's really different from the current environment." ”

"Among all kinds of imagination, the one I insist on the most is to install a wooden door without a doorbell for the detective agency." Hugo said suddenly.

"Why?" Bilan's head was crooked, and her shawl chestnut hair was flicked in the sun, full of the vitality of a young girl.

"If I use a wooden door without a doorbell, I can guess the identity of the visitor, their occupation, and their mood when they come to the door by the frequency and force of the knock before they enter. In addition to this reason, I also think that the sound of the wooden door being knocked on is very pleasant. ”

"That's a detective." Bilan nodded in agreement. "Then you will be able to tell the general situation before the visitor explains his intentions, as the prophet did for the future. What a cunning and effective trick, the last time I entered the door with Douzi, you could deduce from Douzi's two doorbells that she was very happy, and then deduce the final outcome of our battle with that Sandstorm group. ”

"Yes, it's a pity that the plan can't keep up with the changes, and the current facility conditions can only allow me to make such a shocking reasoning, which completely fails to reflect the effect of the program of the unpredictable prophet."

Hugo sighed regretfully, and pointed out the window with a look of envy.

"Who would have thought that my detective agency would be equipped with this huge row of floor-to-ceiling windows and such a vast outdoor courtyard in one step? In this way, wouldn't it be clear at a glance who is visiting from outside? ”

Not to mention, looking out of the floor-to-ceiling windows, you can really see two sneaky guys studying something outside the courtyard of the Hasu Mansion.

Seeing the figure outside, Bilan finally knew why the detective had changed the subject.

"As you can see, there are two policemen in beige uniforms of the Feiyun City Police Department, among them, the one with short blue hair is my old acquaintance, our Miss Junsha of Feiyun City, who used to work in the Public Security Section, and was recently transferred to the criminal department because he solved a major case. The female officer next to her, who looked a little submissive, was probably her new partner, and I didn't know her, so I had to wait for her to enter the room before introducing herself. ”

Facing the eloquent Detective Hugo, Bilan couldn't help but ask: "Shouldn't you take the initiative to go up and open the door when you see someone standing outside the door?" ”

The detective didn't care, and waved his hand as if repelling mosquitoes: "There is a doorbell at the door of Yuqi Mansion, and they haven't rang it yet." Of course, this means that the two ladies are not going to come in for the time being, and perhaps Miss Junsha is introducing her old friend to the newcomer at this time, just like me. ”

The assistant nodded somewhat convincingly, but when he thought about it, he felt that something was wrong: "The police station is a long way from here in the Yuqi Mansion, right?" If they wanted to introduce you, they would have already done it on the way, right? ”

Coincidentally, at the same time, Hugo's landline phone on the office desktop rang violently, and the detective picked up the microphone: "Hey, this is Hugo's detective agency." ”

There was a roar on the other end of the phone, and even after a distance, Bilan was startled—

"Hugo! The doorbell of your frighteningly big broken mansion is broken! I've been waiting in front of my house for a long time, come out and open the door! ”

。

The detective smuggled the officer into the door, and the female officer, who looked like a deputy, followed Junsha into the Yusu Mansion.

"Junsha, this is a newly recruited employee of our firm, she heard about my detective deeds in the Guandu area, so she came to visit her apprentice, her name is Bilan. Bilan, this is the super detective I often mention to you, Miss Junsha from Feiyun City, and the thunderbolt zebra she trained is very bad at riding. ”

Hugo's face did not change and his heart did not beat nonsense.

"Don't listen to this guy's nonsense!" Junsha and Bilan glared at the detective in unison, and after noticing the other party's reaction, the two looked at each other and smiled, as if they had established some kind of tacit understanding when they first met.

The police officer said angrily: "I'm not a super police detective, and the work of the criminal department is all troublesome. Hugo, this is Serra, the deputy assigned to me by the bureau. ”

Junsha's partner, the lady, has long black hair and square-framed glasses, and she always looks down at the notebook in her hand. It's really surprising that the police station actually assigned Junsha such a quiet girl as a deputy.

"First meeting, Miss Serra, I'm Hugo, the detective here." Hugo introduced himself very simply, and then he explained to Bilan, "Because the criminal police often need to face the crime scene, they must have at least two people acting together when handling the case, so a police detective and an adjutant are a common mode of action in the police case." ”

"Hello Mr. Hugo and Miss Azure, I'm Serra." The black-haired female police officer greeted the detectives in a proper manner, and then took a shy step back, hiding behind Junsha like a scared little animal.

"The first time the two of you met, I was the detective's assistant Bilan." Bilan followed the example of a detective and reported her name, and then couldn't wait to ask, "Since Miss Junsha and Miss Sierra are visiting in pairs, they must be investigating a certain case, right?" ”

"It's not just a case, they just went to the scene of a murder." Hugo pointed to the pocket behind Junsha's waist and said sharply.

"Miss Junsha had rubber gloves stuffed in her pockets, which for the police would only be needed to enter the scene of the crime; In addition, you can also see from the fact that your sideburns are a little untidy, and you have worn a protective hat to prevent hair loss from destroying the scene not long ago. ”

The assistant lady observed the detective's serious expression, and always felt that Hugo was a little more aggressive than usual, was he angry for the wrong reasoning because the doorbell was broken?

"Yes, yes, there is such a murder." Jun Sha had a strange expression, and she was not in a hurry to explain the case, so she found a sofa and sat down comfortably, and the deputy lady hurriedly sat down next to Jun Sha.

Seeing everyone seated, Hugo made a strange move. He raised his hands above his head and clapped them loudly.

Then, there was a sound of running in the Feather Mansion, and soon after, the Grass Turtle, the Little Flame Monkey, Bogaman, and Little Ibu rushed out with a teacup filled with water.

Junsha took the teacup from the grass knot of the grass seedling turtle and blew the hot air as she asked Turbule, "You trained these Pokémon?" These are all Pokémon that are rare in the United Nation area. ”

The assistant lady of the Yuqi Mansion shook her head: "No, only Eevee is mine, and the other children are Hugo's Pokémon." ”

"Huh?"

Dumbfounded, the teacup slipped from Miss Junsha's hand, and was caught by the grass seedling turtle with a straw knot rope at the last moment, the female police officer looked like she saw the sun rising in the west, and looked blankly at the elves who were serving tea to everyone in front of her, and her eyes gradually turned to the detective-

"You're not the Hugo I know, who are you?"
