Chapter 80 Undercover? Informant? Traitor?
"We are only detectives, neither judges nor police inspectors. Our duties do not include trying, convicting and arresting criminals."
"Our duty is only to investigate the truth, no matter whether the truth is dark or light, bloody or clean, sinful or pure good... these are not things we should think about. The only thing we need to do is to peel off the cocoons from the mystery of the case. Find the right path in the maze of mysteries.”
"If Winfres is really a cruel and crazy follower of Si Chen, who hides his crazy and chaotic thoughts and weird and terrifying body under the benevolent white coat of a doctor...then I will naturally not be merciful."
"But if Winfrey is just an ordinary mortal, a benevolent doctor with a compassionate heart, then I have proven his innocence after investigation, so that innocent people will not be wronged, and he can also help the poor through volunteer work People... Then it’s even less likely that I would feel guilty for feeling sorry for myself.”
"Whether it works out or not, the end result won't be a bad thing for us, right?"
Charlotte couldn't help but be speechless. She didn't know how to answer her assistant.
What Watson said seemed to make sense, but she always felt that something was not quite right.
Can ordinary people distinguish right from wrong so clearly?
Only a wise man whose rational thinking is strong enough to overwhelm his sensibility would be so forthright...such as me, such as Watson.
Thinking of this, Charlotte Holmes laughed at herself. It seemed that I was really indecisive and overly worried, and I actually needed Watson to wake me up... Sure enough, it was a very correct decision to sign Watson as my assistant. Decide!
"Then what are you going to do?"
Watson seemed unable to stand for long. He walked tremblingly to the sofa, sat down, then picked up the teapot and poured himself and the female detective a cup of hot tea that was still warm.
He seemed to be thirsty after talking too much. He drank the black tea in one gulp before continuing to add:
"Actually, when I left the Royal Free Hospital last time, I met Nello Barros on the roadside. At that time, he invited me to go to St. Achonius' Hospital. Maybe he could ask a famous doctor to treat my stubborn leg disease... …Now that I think about it, the famous doctor the other party mentioned is Winfrey Morgan.”
"And since Winfrey saw that I often told his daughter Anna about Miss Charlotte's detective story, he probably took pity on me and once tentatively asked if he wanted to diagnose my stubborn leg disease. But I refused at the time. I thought that after seeing so many doctors, they could not completely cure my leg injury, and this unknown Mr. Winfrey might not be able to do it either. "
"But now that I think about it, if this person is really a follower of Sichen who knows forbidden knowledge, as Miss Charlotte suspects... maybe it is really possible to heal my pain." Something seemed to be burning in Watson's eyes. With a flame of hope, he turned to look at the female detective, "Miss Charlotte, based on the confidential information I have seen in the Anti-Suppression Bureau, is there a chance that my leg injury will be completely healed? Or, is there any chance of being affected by it?" Forbidden knowledge can also cure my injuries?"
But Watson shook his head regretfully in the next second, "Forget it, I don't want to become the slave of Si Chen, the so-called true god, and fall into madness and lose my mind just to heal the pain."
When Charlotte heard the first sentence, she was still worried whether Watson would go astray, but after hearing the next sentence, she finally felt a little relieved... But she also knew that people's The will cannot withstand the temptation. If you want to continue to strengthen Watson's determination to fight against Si Chen's followers, then you'd better visit a famous doctor who is reclusive in London, or look for some harmless special items.
She still vaguely remembered that the Anti-Suppression Bureau had an exchange channel for special items for special investigators like them. Those were mysterious things that once originated from various divisions, but now the Anti-Suppression Bureau had erased them and might have Factors that lead to mental distortion in mortals.
But her current authority is not enough to redeem these popular and life-saving valuable items. Maybe after this case is completed, she can try to redeem it...or ask Uncle Jack to advance the redemption for her?
The female detective did not hide this matter. Although she believed in Watson's firm willpower, she could not let him take such a big risk, but could only get the not-so-rich salary of a detective assistant.
"Watson, don't worry. I have seen harmless healing items in the Anti-Suppression Bureau. Although my current authority is not enough to redeem them, I will definitely try my best to get them for you after this case is over. , so that your leg injury can be fully healed.”
When Charlotte Holmes said these words, her snow-cold eyes were filled with warm light. This kind-hearted light was so dazzling in Watson's eyes that he almost died for his lies. He lowered his head in shame...it was just a tiny bit short of that.
But he still nodded sincerely and said: "Thank you, Miss Charlotte!"
The female detective patted his intact right shoulder heartily and said, "Don't make fun of Watson, this is what I should do. I haven't thanked you for your life-saving kindness. If you hadn't done it for me at that time, Without William McConaughey's severed finger, I'm afraid I'm already lying in a coffin sleeping underground, and will no longer be able to investigate these bizarre cases and gain the sense of accomplishment of solving them!"
Watson seemed to smile sheepishly.
"Then Watson, how do you plan to sneak into Winfrey's free clinic team? Through your former subordinate Nello?"
"No, this is too direct. My current idea is to pretend to be a patient who comes to St. Archbishop's Hospital on Saturday, and then meet Winfrey by chance at the end of the team... There are two possibilities at this time. One is that Winfrey is indeed just an ordinary doctor with superb medical skills. Even if he has a way to cure my leg injury, it is impossible to complete the treatment overnight. I will definitely need to go back for treatment from time to time. At this time, I can take the opportunity to sneak into the hospital and investigate the source of the suspicious traces you found, Miss Charlotte... Maybe it comes from other secret groups that use free clinics to hide their actions. . "
"The second possibility is that Dr. Winfreys is indeed a believer of the Hours who possesses the power of forbidden knowledge. He may use his mysterious power to heal my leg injury on the spot. Then I will pretend to be grateful and join their free clinic team as a volunteer. Or maybe he will heal my leg injury in multiple times to avoid attracting attention, so I can also use this to slowly infiltrate their team. "
"Well..." The female detective pondered the feasibility of this plan, and said after a while: "I think Watson's plan still has some loopholes. It's better to do this, this, this, this, this..."
In the following period of time, the female detective and her assistant launched a series of careful discussions on how to infiltrate the Winfreys free clinic team.
Charlotte Holmes is indeed extremely smart. Even though Watson's subsequent plan was specially castrated and hid many details, she was able to immediately find the problems and quickly give optimization suggestions... Lurking, or undercover plan, is gradually being improved.
Time passes with the shadow of the sundial.
Soon it was Saturday of this week, the day when Winfreys was conducting a free clinic at St. Agnese Hospital.
Going undercover in the esoteric cult... should be considered as entering the esoteric cult.
