Back in the living room, Klein picked up the letter cutter, opened the seal, and took out the letter from Issinger Stanton.

The well-known detective wrote in the letter:

"Your ideas have been of great help to us, and allow me to thank you here in the first place. ”

"After receiving the letter from you, we immediately organized people to investigate some key areas, and sure enough, we found corresponding clues, many stray animals that often haunt the neighborhood and are remembered by residents have disappeared one after another. ”

"In the process, we also noticed an interesting thing, in the serial murder case four years ago, yes, the target was a single prostitute with a child, many people who lived around the scene of the crime mentioned that although the most suspicious teenager was withdrawn and ruthless, he was quite loving to animals, especially a large black dog. ”

"After the boy died in a gang fire, the people around him never saw the dog again. ”

"I'm curious, who is its current owner, the murderer of some unsolved serial murder case a long time ago?"

"All of the above was proven at the scene of the 12th murder and played a key role in allowing the police to initially identify the suspect, and if all goes well, we will be able to get the vast majority of the bounty once the perpetrator is apprehended. ”

"My friend, I remember your contribution clearly and will not forget your share. ”

......

Eisinger Stanton seemed a little suspicious that I knew the truth about the "demon", so he deliberately hinted at something? Klein put down the letter and muttered silently.

However, this letter also made him really relieved:

The official extraordinaires didn't find the wrong person!

If the demon dog didn't get any other help, it was only a matter of time before it was captured and killed.

As for Issinger Stanton's speculation that the other party still has an owner, Klein lacks sufficient evidence to confirm it, and can only say that there is a certain probability.

"Anyway, that's the end of my mission, and the next thing is the Night Watcher, the Punisher, and the Mechanical Heart Squad. Pulling out a fresh piece of paper, picking up a round-bellied pen, Klein replied to Issinger Stanton's letter full of modesty, ignoring his subtle hints like a real private investigator.

After cutting another paper figure, and after going out to deliver the letter, Klein paced to the waiting point for the public carriage, and thought with a relaxed face:

"Then you can wait to collect the money......"

"Raypard said that he was going to see the Russell exhibition for three days in a row, and I had to wait until Saturday to go to him and make the final payment, hoping that by then the bicycle patent had been filed, and hey, the Beckland Patent Office never seemed to be very productive. ”

Klein had already thought about today's arrangements just now, and when the Extraordinary Party couldn't be held and he couldn't buy the corresponding items, he suddenly became idle, and he didn't need to be busy anymore for a short time.

"In the morning, I went to the Kragg Club, practiced guns, practiced extraordinary abilities, and had lunch there, then I found a better circus and watched the magicians perform to see if I could get some inspiration. He took out his gold-shelled pocket watch and looked at it, and boarded the public carriage in a good mood.

............

Hilston District, Cragg Club.

Because Crane came over at least twice a week, the waiters all remembered him, and he didn't need to show his membership certificate and the Frost Constellation badge anymore.

It was Wednesday morning, and most of the members of the Kragg Club belonged to the more middle-class class, working in regular and decent jobs, not Sundays, not annual holidays, not tea time, and it was difficult to come.

The spacious and bright hall was unusually empty, except for the coffee table and sofa area in the corner.

Glancing over there, Klein saw an acquaintance, so he went up and said hello:

"Talim, the weather is so great today, you should be at the racetrack. ”

The acquaintance was the aristocratic equestrian teacher Talim Dumont, who had been introduced to the club by Mrs. Mary, and he had brought Klein a business that was to protect the Daily Observer reporter Mike Joseph to the Golden Rose for investigation.

Talim raised his head, touched his short brown curls, and said with a smile:

"Oh, dear detective, what have you been up to lately? I haven't seen you in a long time. ”

That's when you haven't been to the club in days...... Klein smiled and sat down on the couch next to Talim:

"It's not always rewarding to help the police investigate that serial murder case, but the bounty is tempting enough, and it's very important for us private investigators to have a good relationship with the police department. ”

All of the above is bragging, I'm just an inconspicuous character who was called...... He teased himself in his heart.

Several members sitting in the couch area behind them discussed the latest Western Railroad stocks and East Byron Plantation stocks, guided by a man who appeared to be a stockbroker.

Talim did not have any doubts about Klein's answer, and laughed:

"It's really a busy thing for the great detective. ”

After a few pleasantries, he gradually entered a thoughtful state.

Just as Klein was about to leave the underground shooting range, Talim suddenly looked at him and said:

"Mr. Moriarty, may I ask a question?"

"Well, you can charge a fee for counseling. ”

"It's free, and besides, just call me Sherlock. Klein laughed.

Talim nodded lightly and said hesitantly:

"I have a friend who falls in love with someone I shouldn't love, what should I do about that?"

Although I always thought that "I have a friend" was equivalent to "myself" when asking similar questions, Talim's emotional color indicated that it was not him, and that he was embarrassed, but he did not see the slightest pain...... Crane, who had turned on his vision, leaned back slightly, clasped his hands and said:

"I'm sorry, but I'm not a psychiatrist, and I'm not one of the newspapers and magazines who specializes in emotional issues. ”

"My only advice is, don't break the law. ”

"Hehe, this is a joke, first of all, we have to figure out what the 'ought' is from?

Talim glanced at him and said helplessly:

"No, it's not Romeo and Juliet story!"

Hearing the other party's answer, an illusory whisper seemed to ring in Crane's ears:

Author: Russell Gustaf...... Author: Russell Gustaf...... Author: Russell Gustaf......

He shook his head, said sorry to Old Man Sha, and smiled:

"Russell the Great is such a classic that I think of undeserved love when I think of it. ”

"So, why shouldn't we be together?"

Talim was silent for a few seconds and said:

"I have to keep it a secret, sorry, because I didn't ask. ”

Confidentiality? That's a very tall person...... Falling in love with someone of the same sex? Falling in love with someone of the same sex? Crane held back his intense curiosity and spread his hands:

"Then I can only give one more piece of advice, take a look at the emotional best-sellers of "Storm Villa" and "Love and Jealousy". ”

Talim moved his lips a few times, sighed, and said:

"Hey, this is only a last resort, and it doesn't seem to me that those best-selling feelings happen between normal human beings. ”

"I think so too!" Klein agreed.

After smiling at Talim, he got up and went to the underground shooting range to practice his extraordinary abilities, and it was almost noon before he returned to the first floor and went straight to the cafeteria.

He's noticed that today's limited edition is fried foie gras in red wine, accompanied by apple slices and bread dipped in butter.

After picking up the food, Crane took the plate and walked to the table where Talim was, and at this moment, in addition to Talim, there was another acquaintance of his, also as a guarantor, the surgeon Alan Kreese who introduced him to the club.

He had just put his plate down and had not had time to sit down when Klein suddenly noticed a cane leaning against the famous surgeon's chair.

"Alan, what's wrong?" he asked with concern.

Alen, who was tall and thin, had a cold appearance, and wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, patted his right leg and said:

"No, don't mention it, it's so unlucky! I fell down the stairs and had a bad bone crack that had to be fixed with a cast. ”

"I'm really unlucky. Crane sighed in agreement, and slipped a piece of foie gras and stuffed it into his mouth, the melt-like sensation of melting at the first touch of the fat expanding and stimulating every taste bud.

"I've been out of luck for a long time. Alan raised his hand and pushed down the frame, rubbing the corners of his forehead.

He then looked at Crane, then at Talim, and asked hesitantly:

"Mr. Moriarty, do you have, do you have ......?"

"What?" Klein asked, looking up.

Alan lowered his voice and said:

"You're a well-known detective, you should know a lot of people, right?"

"It's fine. Crane didn't understand what the other party meant, and said perfunctorily.

Alan glanced at Talim again, took a breath and said:

"Do you know anyone like a village witch doctor? no, I mean, some soothsayer or occult enthusiast, I think, I think, my recent bad luck is too abnormal......

"I knew that it was very likely that it was fake, that it was a lie, but I couldn't find any other way out of bad luck, so I tried to go to church to pray, donate, go to Mass, but to no avail. ”

Some soothsayers or occult enthusiasts...... You seem to be talking about me...... Klein pondered:

"Alan, tell me more about what happened to you. ”

Talim next to him also nodded:

"Don't worry, although I am a believer in the Lord, I do not reject occult things. ”

Alan sighed bitterly:

"Many, many things, like making a mistake in surgery, being in a steam train accident while traveling, coming home and finding a thief, going to the hospital, and falling down the stairs...... You say, could someone be cursing me?"

Well, I've heard Ellen mention something similar before...... Crane frowned slightly.

As a former night watchman, he could easily associate a seal with a description like this:

Doom Muppets!

Similar items?, he turned on his vision and asked solemnly:

"Alan, think about it, before those unlucky things came in a row, did you or your family, well, your family also have bad luck?"

PS: Ask for a monthly pass! Don't care if there is a double at the end of the month, it is much more important to maintain a good ranking at the beginning of the month than to climb up at the end of the month
