Chapter 159 Commission

What happened to the two church members who entered the warden's home?

Are they still alive now?

But judging from the fact that the church's carriage specifically returned to Linzhong Road, waited for a while and then returned in vain, and finally left helplessly.

As for the church, there is no doubt that they have not contacted these two clergy.

As a result, Ronald, who had been monitoring the whole night, did not see the two people leaving.

They also did not return to church.

The result is very simple.

They really stayed in the warden's mansion, and something must have happened.

Then, even more unpredictable situations will arise.

What exactly is the result?

Ronald has no intention of making any assumptions now.

His choice was to continue waiting, but until noon passed, there was still no movement from the warden's side.

"..."

Gu——

Finally, when the time entered the afternoon.

Ronald heard his stomach growl in protest at him.

From yesterday to now, he has only eaten one breakfast in total, and he is indeed feeling a little uncomfortable at the moment.

Normally, it would be over if you just tolerate it.

But it just so happens that today is Friday.

Early tomorrow morning, Ronald will go out of the city to go on duty in the countryside.

He has no intention of breaching the contract he signed with Everton. He has been abiding by the laws in his previous life.

After thinking for a few seconds, Ronald turned around and left Linzhong Road.

certainly.

This didn't mean that he was going back to the pension to rest.

The destination of Ronald's trip was a commercial street in Burrenwich.

——Ruby Street.

Swift's studio is located at No. 12 on this street.

Ronald's trip was to find this detective.

Tomorrow I have to go out of the city to fulfill the work obligations brought by the contract, so I definitely don't have time to continue watching here.

in this case.

Ronald can think of the most suitable person for this job right now.

Of course it’s Detective Swift.

——The reputation possessed by the great detective;

——Members of the Mysterious Side;

——Famous people who enjoy a good reputation among the people;

——I have a pretty good relationship with myself.

With all these identities added up, Ronald believed that Swift was someone he could trust.

And recalling what he saw on the train before and in Burrenwich afterwards, Swift is also a person with basic professional ethics.

I just don’t know how much this guy will charge me for this kind of commission...

Although he was hungry, Ronald's steps were not slow.

Soon, Swift's home arrived.

It was still the same two-story building he came to last time. Ronald walked up and knocked on the door three times rhythmically.

Bang bang bang——

Soon, someone in the room responded:

"Who is it?"

Ronald immediately replied:

"Ronald Adler came to visit!"

Click——

The door opened from the inside, and it was the same apprentice who opened the door for Ronald last time.

Looking at Ronald in front of him, the young man smiled before continuing to ask:

"Mr. Ronald, are you still here to see Mr. Swift?"

Ronald nodded:

"That's right."

"Is Swift here today?"

Upon hearing Ronald's question, the young man immediately nodded and said:

"Sir happens to be here, I'll ask him to come down."

Ronald walked into the studio and nodded his thanks:

"Then I'll trouble you."

After a brief exchange of words, the young man first walked around Ronald and closed the door behind him, and then walked quickly to the second floor.

In less than a minute, Swift walked down the stairs.

Mr. Detective looked a little tired.

He should have been resting before.

Wearing a very casual everyday outfit, Swift walked out without even smoothing out the wrinkles in her clothes.

Seeing Ronald standing in the studio, the great detective said hello lazily:

"Ronald, why do you have time to come to my place today?"

"Don't be...huh?"

"etc!"

Originally, she wanted to continue greeting her, but before she finished speaking, Swift's lazy eyes began to become sharp.

He stared at Ronald closely, his eyes looking back and forth several times.

Immediately, he waved to the young man beside him:

"Carol, just stay here in the studio. Mr. Ronald and I have some things to do."

"If anyone wants to come up to see me, please let him wait first."

"When you encounter something that really can't be stopped, just remind me loudly."

"Understand?"

Hearing the seriousness in Swift's tone, Carlo was also shocked:

"Sir, I understand!"

"Um."

Nodding slightly to his apprentice, Swift then waved to Ronald.

The two of them understood and immediately walked up to the second floor together.

The second floor is Swift's lounge, his home in Burrenwich to be precise.

The medium-sized floor was neatly divided into several rooms by Mr. Detective. The two of them came to the living room which was located next to the street and had good lighting.

He walked into it with Ronald, turned around and locked the door of the living room.

Swift carefully closed the curtains again, and then sat on the sofa in the living room with Ronald:

"Ronald, you don't look right here today."

"There are traces on the clothes, some poor mental state, and you came to see me at this time. Did you last night..."

Speaking of this, Swift suddenly shook his head.

After a few seconds, he said with a firm tone:

"No, not last night."

"You should have been outside since the day yesterday, and then you didn't rest until this time this afternoon, and finally came to me immediately."

"For you to be in such a hurry, this matter may not be easy, right?"

"You really have a sharp eye."

Ronald first praised the other party's carefulness, and then simply stated his purpose:

"When I come here, I naturally have a very important commission for you."

"How about it, do you want to hear me continue?"

"..."

Looking into Ronald's eyes, Swift thought for a moment before continuing to ask:

"It seems that today's commission is still a very dangerous job?"

Ronald nodded, and then introduced somewhat implicitly:

"This matter involves quite a wide range of forces, and the level of trouble is also very difficult."

"I can't trust anyone else to do this in Burrenwich right now."

"Only you, a great detective with a good reputation and strength, can I dare to come here for help now."

"..."

The meaning of Ronald's words is simple.

The wide range of forces involved means that it may provoke a lot of people. If it is difficult for people on the mysterious side, it means that the mysterious side is involved. The combination of the two means that the danger is self-evident.

Faced with such a reply.

Swift was silent for a long time, and finally nodded:

"If it's not a job that is harmful to social order, then leave it to me."

Ronald showed a grateful smile and immediately replied:

"It's a long story..."
