Chapter 157 Detective Henry (for Subscription~)

When the morning sun climbed onto Sifa's face, he turned over, opened his eyes, and saw the clear blue sky outside the window.

Today is the first day of September, the weather is fine, and the autumn is getting stronger here in Tingen.

And, having gotten the Pyromancer's full recipe last night, the first day of the new month has a hopeful feel to it for Sifa.

He got up full of motivation, changed into formal clothes after washing, and came to the living room.

Matthew has already prepared breakfast, and Xifa is enjoying the breakfast leisurely while flipping through the newspapers.

Seeing Gru come out yawning at this time, Matthew told him in a low voice: "Mr. Gru came back very late last night, it seems to be to cooperate with the police in dealing with the attack."

Xifa thought of the young man who died in the dark alley, and his good mood in the morning dimmed a lot. He called Gru over: "How did you handle things last night?"

"It's done." Grew nodded.

Xifa leaned back in his chair: "Do you know the identity of the deceased?"

"Moen Radgett, a novelist, when I cooperated with the investigation at the police station, it seemed that some police had already visited the deceased's residence."

"They found a manuscript that was about to be published at the gentleman's house. An editor of the Tingen newspaper also went to the police station last night and identified the deceased."

"From their conversation, the editor seems to be optimistic about this writer, but unfortunately. Now that he is dead, there should be no possibility of publishing that work."

Gru's stomach growled at this moment.

Xifa smiled and said, "Let's go to dinner first, Matthew, you too."

He thought for a while, and then said to Gru: "Do you recognize that editor? If so, you will go to the newspaper office to find him later, and tell him that I am willing to help the deceased publish a book."

That might be his last wish in this life.

In the afternoon, Xifa first went to the Dragon Bar. Of course, I went there as a 'Duke', but after shopping around, I bought 'Crimson Flower Nectar' in the underground market.

Then he went to the Elk Bar again, but instead of going by himself, he asked Mr. Parker, but he only got 'Tranquil Water' and 'Solidified Lava', all auxiliary materials.

"I still owe two main materials and one auxiliary material. It seems that I can only try my luck in Tarot."

Xifa put the collected materials into a box, and couldn't help but sigh: "I don't know if there is any magical item like a 'carry pocket', so that I can access what I need at any time without worrying about losing it."

At this time, the servant's voice sounded from outside the bedroom: "Sir, it's time to eat."

After dinner, Xifa entered the bedroom early, rested for a while, and left the hotel.

When he came near the safe house, he saw a man hovering at the door. The man was wearing a pure black formal suit with a vest and white shirt of the same color inside.

His face was rigid and his eyebrows were as clear as a sharp sword. He seemed to be aware of Xifa's gaze, so he looked over.

Then, he took the initiative to move closer.

Xifa frowned slightly, first he wanted to pretend that passers-by left in a hurry, but then he thought, why not see what he is going to do first.

And, who is he?

"gentlemen."

The man with dark blue eyes pointed to the doorway of the safe house: "You should live near here, I think you slowed down when you came here, and looked at these townhouses, it seems that you are not interested in here. Very familiar."

Very keen observation.

"Do you need help?" Xifa neither affirmed nor denied, but directly asked the question.

The man with dark blue eyes nodded: "I have something to give to the owner of that house, but he doesn't seem to be back yet. If you are his neighbor, do you know when he will come back?"

thing?

what?

Xifa looked towards the mailbox: "Maybe it can solve your problem."

The man looked back and shook his head immediately: "No, this thing is very important, I have to hand it over to him."

"Then there is nothing I can do to help." After speaking, Sifa was about to leave. He didn't want to come into contact with a stranger before he found out the reality of this person.

The man with dark blue eyes sighed: "Then I have no choice but to come back tomorrow."

He passed by Sifa and said in a low voice, "Robin, what was he investigating that killed him?"

He spoke in such a low voice that he couldn't hear at all because of his extraordinary hearing.

Robin?

Detective Robin? he died?

"etc."

Xifa stopped the man in front of him: "The Robin you mentioned just now is not a detective from Jianhai County?"

The blue-eyed man turned his head and looked at Xifa again.

After a while.

In the living room, Xifa held two cups of black tea and put them on the table: "There is only ordinary black tea at home, I hope you don't mind."

"So, you are?"

The blue-eyed man took a sip from his teacup and said calmly, "My name is Henry, and I'm Robin's colleague."

Detective Henry?

The one Mr Leeds introduced me to?

Xifa nodded: "I just heard you say that Mr. Robin had an accident?"

"It wasn't an accident, it was murder. I'm sure of that!" Henry said with certainty, "I know him too well, he would never do such a stupid thing as hanging himself!"

Sifa's heart skipped a beat.

Hang yourself!

Sandy hanged himself, and now it's Robin who investigates him.

The detective was right, it must have been a murder!

"Before I received a letter from Mr. Robin, he told me that there was something urgent to go home, and he suspended my commission."

Xifa picked up the teacup: "It seems that it is not the same thing now. Can you tell me what exactly happened?"

Henry, who is also a detective, sighed softly: "Actually, I don't know much. Just three days ago, Robin came to me suddenly. He handed me something and told me that he was going back to Jianhai County."

"If you receive a letter from him from Jianhai County, destroy what he gave me. If not, bring it here and give it to the owner of this house."

"However, the next day, I received news that he had hanged himself at home. He also left a suicide note, saying that he was desperate for the world and had no nostalgia for life."

Henry gritted his teeth and said, "This is simply impossible! This guy told me last week that as long as he works for another year, he can return to Jianhai County to open his own detective agency. How could you suddenly commit suicide in despair after planning well!"

The detective looked at Xifa: "Tell me, what is he investigating. He has not completed the commission, I will complete it for him!"

Xifa looked at him seriously: "Mr. Henry, have you seen what Robin gave you?"

Henry shook his head decisively: "No, he emphasized that he told me not to open it."

Xifa nodded slightly: "Then, please give me the things. As for this matter, that's it."

"I don't want anyone to be injured or even lose their life because of this incident."

"I also hope that you will not be impulsive and think more about your family, your children, and the people you love."

Henry looked at him directly with his eyes, and didn't speak for a long time.
