Chapter 111: Roman's Fiance (4/7)

"But now, I can only rely on you." Judy spread her hands. Since she was dragged by Susan to find Abner, and the other party also agreed to start an investigation, she didn't have to worry about it anymore, so as not to play a role Show flaws.

"You just said that there is a problem with 'maybe', what exactly is going on?" Abner frowned and asked.

Speaking of which, Roman's engagement partner was originally recognized by Abner. Although he was not very familiar with him and hadn't announced his name, he also had nodding acquaintances when they were together.

In the impression of the original owner, because he was born in a branch of an aristocratic family, and his parents still held a lot of shares in several steam machinery factories, Roman's engagement partner was a rather arrogant person, but his temperament was not bad, and he had a good relationship with Roman. The friends around her are also very polite, so the reputation is not bad, which has attracted many female students to envy Roman.

"Actually, the story is very simple. Your classmate Roman has been aware of her fiancé Alex's estrangement these days, and has been very worried. A chance encounter, she saw Mr. Alex courting a lady, so she couldn't help it Come forward to theory.

"I didn't expect that not only did she not get the apology she deserved, but she was also severely reprimanded by her fiancé.

"Miss Roman was reprimanded by her father because of the school club, and now she is reprimanded by someone she likes, so she jumped into the river when she couldn't think about it...

"Although it's normal to fall in love with someone else, from Ms. Roman's description of her fiancé, I can see that Mr. Alexis was a very self-disciplined person who was very good at controlling his emotions. Everyone is polite.

"Even if such a person likes his lover very much, he shouldn't embarrass his fiancée so much in public.

"It's such a huge transformation for one person that I have to wonder what's wrong with it."

After listening to Judy's analysis, Abner nodded thoughtfully, and added following the other party's words:

"So, it's not that Alec wants to plot something on that lady, or that lady has a problem, which affects Alec."

"I think so too... And according to my experience in handling cases in the past, in such cases, there are often problems with both parties!" After a serious reminder, Judy smiled again, and said playfully, "Okay, That's all I know, and the rest depends on your ability, Mr. Detective."

I always feel that words like "famous detective" and "hero" that you people who know the inside story are mocking me...

Abner secretly complained,

With a serious expression on his face, he asked solemnly: "Then ma'am, let me confirm one last time, are you really willing to entrust me to find out the truth behind the Alec incident?"

The man who acquires the knowledge he has painstakingly acquired must himself wish to acquire it.

This is the new rules for playing the role of "Wisdom Keeper" after he avoided reporters in the office for the past few days and dealt with a few minor troubles from his servants.

That is to say, someone must first express his wish to him because he is eager to obtain a certain piece of "knowledge", and then he will inform the other party of the corresponding "knowledge" obtained through exploration, so that this "knowledge" can be spread and used. It will not be easily lost or cut off. This is a relatively complete performance of "Wisdom Keeper".

Although Judy didn't understand the meaning behind it, seeing Abner's serious expression, she suppressed her smile and said seriously, "I do have the desire to know the truth."

"Then, I have accepted this commission, and I will bring the truth to you and Roman as soon as possible." Abner said this, but suddenly saw the girl in front of him pull out a few hairs that were as dry and yellow as hay. He handed it over, so he asked inexplicably, "What is this for?"

"This is a reward for you in advance. Don't underestimate them, each of them can poison an adult curly-haired baboon in a few seconds." Judy explained with a smile.

Hearing this, Abner's finger that was about to touch his hair suddenly stopped.

"Haha, don't worry. They can only be toxic when they are mixed with alcohol. They are usually very safe. If you want to plot against someone, just grind them into powder and mix them into beer. I guarantee that they are colorless and tasteless. It's hard to notice... Well, my father has been tricked by me a few times." Judy said happily, as if recalling something interesting.

Then being your father is really a high-risk occupation... At least it must be more poison-resistant than the curly-haired baboon...

Abner complained a few words in his heart, and secretly analyzed the few hairs with the "Pure White Eye", and after he had figured out the effect on them, he took it with his hands and carefully put it away .

"By the way, after all, I made them with my extraordinary ability. After leaving me, the power will gradually lose... In short, the toxicity effect will gradually decrease after three months, and it will completely lose effect in about half a year." Judy saw Ai After putting away his hair, Buner added another sentence.

"I understand." Abner nodded, and he already knew this when he analyzed it just now.

After talking about the entrustment, Abner asked about the situation of Roman, the original owner's classmate.

"Hey, although the girl's emotions have eased after the bishop's patient persuasion, I can still feel the pain and negativity in her heart. This is also my request to replace her for a few days, and she agreed without hesitation. The reason for coming down...she was escaping from reality." Judy sighed.

It seems that Roman has a deep affection for her fiancé... No matter what reason that Alec has, it is too much to treat his fiancée who loves him wholeheartedly!

When Abner was thinking this way, he heard Judy say again:

"I hope Miss Roman can get out of this relationship. His fiancé may have the qualifications to become a successful businessman or politician, but he is definitely not a good match for a lady."

Abner didn't want to go deeper on this topic. After all, he didn't have much emotional experience, so he really didn't have the right to speak, so he changed the subject and said: "After you have used Roman's identity, have you thought about how to deal with the aftermath? Will it bring her trouble?"

"She's innocent, isn't she? The authorities won't do anything to the truly innocent." Judy blinked, and continued, "Besides, according to our arrangement, Roman's identity will not be exposed at all. After all, the Roman I pretended to enter the dance venue through your relationship, if I am suspected, you can't get rid of it."

I'm just asking this because I'm worried about it... Now that you have the arrangements, you can feel a little more at ease... But you still have to plan your escape plan in advance, so that you don't have a backup when something goes wrong.

Abner has a certain amount of trust in Bishop Utravsky and the "Desolate Ones", but this trust can't reach the level of Hexiu's unreserved level anyway, so some preparations are still needed .

The same is true for the other party, otherwise he would not have told him the specific plan... Of course, this may also be to protect him, after all, the less you know, the easier it is to get away with it afterwards.

After that, the two lifted the spiritual blockade, and deliberately talked and laughed in the tone of classmates, which deepened the appearance of "the two have a good relationship" and paved the way for taking "Roman" to the dance party on Friday.

Although no one has seen their performance so far, if there is a "detective" to "backtrack" afterwards, it can be misleading.

After the two walked out of the room talking and laughing, Susan stepped forward with some doubts and asked, "Since when did you get along so well?"

"Roman was in a bad mood. I told her a joke to make her happy..." Abner thought for a while and explained.

"What joke? I tried to comfort Roman for a long time but failed. Abner, you are really capable." Susan asked curiously with bright eyes.

"That's the story of the curly-haired baboon... One day the baboon's child picked off its own curly hair and ground it, mixed it into fruit and ate it..."

Abner didn't think of any funny jokes for a while, so he could only make up random words.

On the other hand, Judy was a little at a loss. Why does this story sound familiar?

...

In the folk herbal medicine shop on Leleton Street in Jorwood District, Alec, dressed as a successful man, watched the fat pharmacist who looked like a village witch doctor add several strange herbal powders into the glass bottle, and then added a few drops The corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily for the behavior of rooster blood, and his black eyes were full of suspicion.

After stirring evenly and heating to a boil again, the pharmacist turned his head and looked at the big customer who was introduced by someone in front of him, took a pen and wrote on the paper: "Go back and let the patient drink it as soon as possible, according to the kind you described. According to the situation and the toxicity samples provided, the medicine this time should make the patient recover by about 30%."

Then, he seemed to write something more, but he seemed to feel that it was inconvenient to use a pen, so he gave up with a sigh.

"Is this really useful?" Alec still didn't believe it, but since the lady ordered it, he still didn't question it directly. It's just that a pharmacist who can't even heal his own vocal cords can really dispense medicine that is useful to that powerful lady?

Of course, believe it or not, he still painstakingly took out 20 pounds in cash and handed it to the pharmacist in front of him, then carefully picked up the glass bottle, walked out of the store, and boarded the taxi that had been waiting on the side of the road.

After he sat down, the coachman drove the carriage and started slowly.

Inside the car, Alec held the glass bottle and subconsciously looked at the pedestrian scenery outside through the car window. Suddenly, his spirit moved, and he saw a "man" with an ordinary face but a very delicate appearance coming from the other side of the road, and met his gaze for a moment.

"Looking at the shape of her face... she should be a girl in men's clothes..." Alec made a habitual judgment and didn't care about it.

In this era, there are many women who disguise themselves as men to work. Moreover, it is not uncommon for some ladies from rich families to sneak out to play in this less successful disguise.
