Chapter 232 Thank You

Lynch opened his eyes and saw an unfamiliar ceiling.

He sat up, his mind a little confused, making him a little dazed for a moment.

Why am I in the auditorium?

Oh, no, this is a bedroom, but it looks like an auditorium.

The sun shines into the room through the bright glass windows, making the room warm. The air is filled with the fragrance of gardenias, and the chirping of birds comes in from the window. Apart from that, it is quiet, and the chaos and noise of Charles Square cannot be heard at all.

The spacious bedroom is covered with thick cashmere carpets, and the exquisitely carved solid wood furniture reveals the exquisiteness and grace of the Victorian era. Under the unique glass lampshade, the shiny brass gas nozzles extend from the wall in various shapes like works of art, either as reliefs or as hangings, which are integrated with the decoration of the entire room.

The exquisite four-poster bed is hung with cloud-like gauze curtains, and the fluffy bedding makes people feel like falling into the clouds. The silk sheets are smooth and refreshing, making people can't help but reach out and touch them.

There is no decoration of gold, silver or gems, but it is full of elegance and luxury. This is the property purchased by the Valente family in Rhine City. According to the description of a noble lady, it is just a temporary residence where one can barely rest.

So, if the bedroom is too big and affects sleep, I don’t like big houses. This is scientifically reasonable. Yes, it is not jealousy.

Last night, Lynch did not return to the apartment and came directly to the Valente family. It was not for any other reason, but now he was holding a hot potato. Lynch did not want to bring the trouble back to the apartment, so as not to implicate Mrs. Maggie and her daughter.

But the Valente family is different. Although they are also ordinary people, only those with abnormal brains would rashly provoke such a big family. Therefore, Lynch was still very relieved to stay in Valente for one night and return to his own home after dealing with the problem today.

I will go directly to the Count of Lorende’s house and settle the account with Princess Chloe in a while.

"Dang", the quaint floor clock rang, and Lynch realized that he had slept until eleven o'clock, which made him feel quite good, just like being awakened by the sunlight outside the window. He got up in a panic to prepare for work, but remembered the comfortable mood when he was on holiday today.

He walked to the window barefoot on the soft carpet. There was an open courtyard outside. In the quiet early summer afternoon, the fountain in the yard was spraying quietly. In the pavilion next to the pool, a young lady in home clothes was leaning on a bench, flipping through a thick book.

It must be another detective novel, either Moriarty's detective case or the great detective Hei Luo. This girl has been poisoned.

As if sensing the sight, the young lady looked up and saw the figure in the window of the guest room on the second floor. She immediately ran out of the pavilion lightly, took off her hat and waved it, and her loose blonde hair was particularly brilliant in the sun.

This girl is really beautiful, no, I mean it's so late, I have to get up quickly.

The clothes had been washed and ironed, and were placed at the door of the guest room. Lin Qi hurriedly packed up his clothes, put on his clothes and went downstairs.

This family is really strange. What does it mean that those maids looked at me with such a weird smile? Did I paint a clown on my face? And those male servants, even if you look at me with admiration, I won’t give you a tip.

So, Lin Qi ate the most embarrassing meal in his two lives under the gaze of seven or eight people. Whether the food was exquisite or the tableware was luxurious, Lin Qi didn’t know anything about it. The whole time, there were only the weird eyes of the servants in his mind. He was sitting on pins and needles while eating, and his mind was almost blank in the end.

The key is that the culprit is still laughing. Neighbor, no matter how beautiful your smile is, I will not forgive you.

[Oh, then I will remember it for you. ]

‘Don’t make trouble. ’

After finally waiting until lunch was over, Lynch pulled Miss Valente and ran out, running out of the yard like he was escaping. Then, Miss Valente, who was laughing so hard that she couldn’t straighten her back, pulled him back and boarded the carriage that had been prepared.

This time, it was not the old butler, Mr. Louis, who was driving the carriage. The old man’s body couldn’t stand such tossing. Moreover, this was just an open visit between nobles, not a secret operation, so the old butler didn’t need to drive the carriage himself. It was better to let the old man rest.

The problem is that you, a bad old man, are very bad. Why did you ask the coachman to keep an eye on me and tell him to call the police if he saw me doing anything? I’m really not a good person. No, I’m really not a bad person. You don’t need to stare at me with a thief-proof look. I didn’t steal anything. You can’t blame me if something is lost in your house, really.

In any case, Lynch finally escaped from the sight hell and finally breathed a sigh of relief and opened the newspaper that had been prepared in the carriage.

Pirates appeared on the coastline, and the brave detective fought the criminals. The promise of a steak set meal was not in vain. I couldn't recognize myself in this image.

The Hall of Order temporarily blocked White Bird Port in the early morning and strictly checked suspicious persons. Tsk, it was obvious that the fish and chips were lost. In the situation last night, I'm afraid the Rangers and Mayor Howard would never dream that we were the one who turned the tables. They would only think that someone else was secretly doing something. It's a pity that I can't see their expressions with my own eyes, so I can only make a fortune in silence.

However, before Lynch finished reading a version, the carriage stopped again.

We've arrived.

It was only a ten-minute drive away, and this was because the courtyard was relatively large. Strictly speaking, there were only three households in the middle, so ten minutes was considered slow.

The Iris District is an aristocratic district on the Rhine. It has the best environment, the best public security, and the best facilities. Even if you have money, you can't live here. You can only buy land in the River Valley District. Only people with a certain status are eligible to live here.

Nobles always visit in the afternoon. In fact, it should be later, between two and three o'clock is best. The reason is that the atmosphere in the afternoon is calmer and more suitable for nobles to make decisions. But according to Lynch's explanation, it's simpler. It's just that I can't get up in the morning. Well, it was the same in my hometown in ancient times. It's not a shame.

However, the two of them did not intend to leave at each other's pace, so they arrived two hours in advance. The letter of visit had already been delivered, and the carriage drove directly into the courtyard. The two of them were brought into the living room and waited for a while, wearing a floor-length white dress. Princess Chloe appeared in front of the two of them.

The obese Count Lorende did not appear, and Princess Chloe was still so unlikeable. Although he did not dare to say anything to Miss Valente, he looked at Lynch with critical eyes and said with a tone full of arrogance:

"The city government and the Department of Order respect you so much. I thought you were so powerful. Aren't you the trump card of the city government and the Rangers? Why did you come to us for help just one day later? Unfortunately, I already knew that I’ve told you, if you have anything to do, go back and ask the two detectives, I’m very busy and don’t have time to say it again.”

Sure enough, she thought I was Mayor Howard's person, which is why she attacked me so harshly. No, I'm afraid she was ruthless just because she was so annoying.

Facing the arrogant gaze of this beautiful princess, Lin Qi was not angry, but said with a half-smile: "There has been a slight change in the case. There is something I would like to ask Her Royal Highness to confirm whether she has seen it before."

"I'm not in the mood to do these chores now. Unless you can bring out the flaming red lips, I'm still in the mood to confirm. Otherwise, please don't disturb my life. Hehehe, Detective Leviev, if you can't bring it out, please come back... Um?"

The mocking voice stopped suddenly, and the sneer eyes were frozen in the pupils. Princess Chloe stared straight at Lynch, watching him take out a crimson gem and put it on the coffee table.

Blinking, blinking again, Her Royal Highness was so surprised that she lost the ability to speak. Looking at the gem, she could not speak a single word, and could only open her mouth wide and utter a few meaningless syllables.

"What you just said was Flaming Red Lips, not a clone. Did I hear you correctly?"

Lynch's first words made Princess Chloe's face turn pale, her eyes became more unbelievable, and her breathing became rapid.

"Haha, I've seen fakes exchanged for real ones a lot. This is the first time I've seen a real one exchanged for fakes, so I've learned a lot about it. I stole the gems, then replaced the fake ones with real ones and returned them to the owner, and then let them go. Someone else stole the real gem from the owner. Everyone has been deceived by you, Princess. Everyone is surrounding a real gem, but they don’t know that the replica they really want has been hidden by you. You don’t want to offend anyone and disrupt your cooperation, and you don’t have to actually hand over the replica. As expected of the princess, her methods are amazing.”

"I, you, I, I don't understand what you are talking about."

"We all know whether we understand or not, and there is no need to explain." Princess Chloe was trying to explain with her face turning pale, and Lynch suddenly raised her voice: "Shut up now and listen to me."

"you……"

"I said shut up, don't you understand? I tell you to shut up because I feel sorry for you. I'm giving you a chance to listen to what I have to say. If you're not prepared to accept the charity, we'll leave right now." Lin Qi knocked on the table. The flaming red lips on her face said, "After all, you don't want your behavior to become known to everyone, Your Highness Princess."

Chloe's face turned red instantly, her fists were clenched and shaking, and she pursed her lips tightly, but remained silent, just staring at Lynch with angry eyes.

"Ha, you are a smart man, but you just don't have any manners." Lin Qi said with a smile but not a smile, "You accepted my charity, shouldn't you say something to express it, Your Royal Highness the Princess?"

The beautiful face spit out one word with anger and humiliation:

"Thanks."
