Tribulation of Mysteries - Chapter 174

[Chapter 173 Gang (please subscribe)]

At night.

Detective Assistant Derian walked out of the detective agency, came to a public rental housing, and knocked on the door.

Inside was a very elegant white-haired old man. When he saw Derian, a smile appeared on his face, and he made room for Derian to walk into the living room.

On the sofa, there were already several other people sitting.

They included a well-dressed gentleman, a beautiful girl, and a newspaper boy with a shrewd look.

“Welcome our detective.”

The gray-haired and elegant old man applauded, and his gestures were full of an invisible leadership temperament.

This was not a mysterious influence, but a combination of his own experience, experience, and past successes.

“I followed the target for half a day. He went for a walk in the morning, and then visited his neighbor Aaron Yugus…”

Derian took out his notebook and said the things worth noting one by one.

“Very good, does anyone need to add anything about Mr. Yugus?”

The old man wrote a line of words on a blackboard. Looking closely, there was actually a whole page of character relationship diagrams around William Mark.

“A traveler who inherited a large estate. William probably wants to borrow money from him.” The well-dressed gentleman replied, “I’ll ask him later.”

Aaron looked at the other person and felt that he looked familiar. He seemed to be a guest at the last banquet held at William’s house.

“A rich young man. Why don’t I try and maybe I can cheat him out of a large sum of money.”

The gorgeous girl took out a shell-shaped foundation box from her handbag and put on makeup for herself.

“No, the goal is clear. This is the purpose of our action!”

The old man shook his head and looked at the newsboy.

“His whereabouts in the afternoon are all here… He actually went to the bank, probably trying to apply for a line of credit or a mortgage…”

The newsboy laughed, “I feel like the prey is about to take the bait.”

“Cheers to our lovely Mr. William Mark!”

Derian poured himself a glass of rye beer and laughed loudly, “With such a large sum of money, I’m going to Pulmouth and open my own detective agency!”

“Everyone… be careful to keep a low profile.”

The old man smiled and pressed his palm, “And… Mr. Detective, remember the principles, we are just strangers, and after doing this job, we will each leave and don’t disclose your information! Of course… if you want to release false information, just pretend I didn’t say anything… this can effectively ensure that even if something happens to someone in the future, the rest of us can still remain safe.”

‘…”

While the old man was speaking, Aaron was standing by, seeing every subtle expression on his face clearly.

“Is this the legendary pig-killing scheme? No… They actually bribed or planted acquaintances in advance. This is a special hunting… A gang crime plus the Heavenly Fairy Bureau… Poor Mr. William Mark!”

He chuckled, and the sound disappeared in an instant, leaving only a few marks belonging to the evil spirit.

“A-choo!”

The youngest newsboy suddenly sneezed and complained: “Don’t you feel it’s cold here? Old Eugene, did you forget to pay the heating bill…”

…

No. 33, Golden Rose Street.

Aaron opened his eyes.

Although a thought could make those scammers die miserably, he did not do it directly.

After all, he and William Mark were barely acquaintances who had met a few times. Killing for this and exposing the existence of evil spirits to the investigation bureau was a very irrational behavior.

“This is just a scam, and it doesn’t involve mystery. Let’s wait and see. People don’t know pain unless they learn a lesson.”

“If William Mark is really deceived, I can report the situation to Glamorgan Field. Mundane matters should be solved in the mundane world, without involving mystery.”

“This is good for everyone…”

He lifted the previous arrangement and walked out of the room.

Immediately, he saw Sylvia walking over with a worried look on her face: “Master, are you okay?”

The young master actually stayed in his room for a whole day. If he doesn’t come out after another night, Sylvia will Yadu is ready to call the police!

“It’s okay… prepare dinner for me.”

Aaron yawned.

There is no need for the master to tell his servants what he does.

…

The Investigation Bureau shrouded in darkness is like a beast lurking in the darkness.

Percy Anias limped out of the door, as if he was exhausted.

His mood at this time was extremely complicated.

Originally, he had planned to tell the truth to the director.

But when things came to pass, perhaps he thought of the wails of the extraordinary beings imprisoned by him, or perhaps his soul was cast an invisible spell, and he hid many things.

For example…not only was he attracted, but he also recited the honorable name of a great being!

But during the follow-up examination, Percy got the answer that he had not been contaminated by any external factors!

This only made him more miserable.

‘I did not make the decision to protect myself under the influence of a spell, but from my heart! ‘

‘I am a waver, a betrayer! ‘

Percy’s eyes were filled with sadness and contempt.

At this time, he saw two Bureau of Investigation staff members walking towards the door while talking and laughing.

“Captain!”

After seeing him, the two investigators immediately saluted solemnly.

“What are you…”

Percy asked confused.

“I’ve been working too much overtime recently, and the bureau finally had a holiday. We went to the Moulin Rouge together…”

an investigator answered generously.

“Holiday?”

Percy was in a daze for a moment. How far away is this word?

“Yes…Boss, after several large-scale investigations and catching a bunch of rats in the sewers, Green Forest City has become much calmer. The bureau is giving us vacations in turns…”

Another person The team member laughed.

As a secret police officer, you usually have to face a lot of mental pressure, so it is tacitly allowed to vent your pressure through alcohol, gambling, and finding street girls.

‘No, that’s not right! Green Forest City is not safe! ‘

Percy screamed in his heart: ‘Although Roberts is dead, his accomplices are still on the run…and there are more evil secret organizations and secret societies…such as the Invisible Priory! It has at least one high-ranking ‘evil spirit’ wandering around this city! ‘

But he didn’t explain this before, and he can’t say it now.

“You… stay vigilant.”

Percy could only remind him, looking at the backs of the two team members, secretly clenching his fists: “A loophole in a lie requires more lies to make up… I… what have I become? Who is that?”

He felt like there was an invisible and dark abyss, and it was like a stinky swamp that was gradually swallowing him up!

What’s even more despairing is that this is a hole that I dug for myself!

‘It turns out…I am such a person…’
