Chapter 205 The beginning of the secret instrument (3400 plus)
Two blocks away from the Duwei Detective Agency.
Detective assistant Derian is in a good mood recently.
The 'old man's' plan was a great success, and he received a considerable sum of gold pounds. He just completed all the formalities today and transferred it to his bearer account opened at the Royal Bank of Pulmouth.
"I'm going to resign today and let that Detective Duwei eat shit!"
"I'm going to Pulmouth, opening a large detective agency, and starting a new life!"
Derian was so excited that he didn't even see the road clearly. He tripped over something and fell hard.
"Damn, my clothes?"
He was distressed to see the stains on the clothes he just bought, and looked angrily at the sparkling crystal that was the culprit of his fall!
The next moment, Derian wiped his eyes, an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.
He swooped in with incredible speed, grabbed the shiny object in his hand, and scanned the surroundings like a thief.
Fortunately, there were few pedestrians around and no one noticed it.
Regardless of the pain and filth on his body, Derian quickly pulled up his collar, covered his face, and left the scene.
Turning into an alley, he glanced around to make sure there was no one there, then he opened his palm and stared at the shiny thing about the size of his thumb.
"Diamond? Crystal? It's worth at least a thousand pounds. If it's a diamond... maybe the one on Inves's crown isn't as big as it!"
"It's mine, it's my...my...baby!"
"Today is my lucky day!"
Adrian quickly stuffed the diamond into his pocket and returned to the street. Everyone seemed to think it was the owner and would run over and grab him by the collar the next moment.
Fortunately, no one jumped out until we arrived outside the Duwei Detective Agency.
Derian couldn't help but let out a long sigh and murmured to himself: "The 'old man' said that things must be done from beginning to end. I must find a suitable excuse to resign, otherwise once I abandon my job and salary without reason, it may arouse suspicion... Hum
, the old man is really too cautious."
The corners of his mouth turned up unconsciously, his eyes slightly raised, and he walked up to the second floor.
"Mr. Du Wei, I want to resign."
Derian dumped his resignation letter directly on Detective Duwe's desk.
'It's so cool, I've wanted to do this for a long time.'
"Oh..." Detective Duwei smoked his pipe and asked slowly: "The reason?"
"I'm going to be rich, and I'll become a more famous detective than you!"
Derian did not say the reason he had made up, but instead raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a contemptuous smile.
"Then I wish you success..." Detective Du Wei frowned: "In addition, according to the contract, if you resign this week, half of the previous week's salary will be deducted, and I can only give you 1 shilling and 5 pence..."
"unnecessary!"
Derian turned around and left: "Take this little money and give it to the beggars!"
Du Wei looked at his back, blew out a smoke ring, and his eyes became slightly darker.
But Derian did not notice that there was a vague word in the spiritual world on the diamond in his pocket.
It means arrogance!
…
Arrogance flashed quickly, then disappeared, and then another word in the spirit language appeared.
Its meaning is greed!
As he walked on the street, Derian's eyes gradually turned red and his breathing became heavy: "I...I seem to have suffered a loss. When I was allocated before, I should have received more! Old Eugene gave me too little...that newsboy
, why should he take as much as me? And that bitch Celie, she only knows how to spread her thighs..."
Derian's emotions were fully aroused, but he himself was in a state of excitement. Without knowing it, he came outside the public rental house and knocked heavily on the door.
No matter how long he knocked, there was no one inside the door. It was obvious that old Eugene gave up here immediately after dividing the spoils.
And even the name ‘Old Eugene’ is very likely to be a pseudonym!
"Damn, damn!"
Derian kicked the door angrily and fled the scene before the landlord arrived.
As he was running, a scene automatically appeared in his mind.
Old Eugene changed into a formal suit and dressed up like a decent old gentleman. He checked into a luxurious hotel. He was carrying a suitcase in his hand and had already purchased a train ticket to leave Green Forest City the next day. It was still luxurious.
First class seat!
In Derian's pocket, the furious words on the surface of the diamond flashed away.
"He's in Room 309 of the Emerald Hotel. He can't escape."
Derian muttered to himself and ran towards the direction of the hotel in the picture.
…
Feicuili Hotel, Room 309.
After a loud banging on the door, the door opened, revealing the face of old Eugene.
He looked at Derian, a flash of panic appeared in his eyes for a moment, but it was quickly suppressed.
Old Eugene looked around cautiously and found that no one was following him, so he pulled Derian into the room and lowered his voice: "How did you find this place?"
He was really shocked!
"Old Eugene, I think my share is too little. I want more, at least 800, no, 1,000 pounds!"
Derian gasped through his nostrils and clenched his fists: "I found you, you can't run away."
"Okay, okay, it can be discussed! It can be discussed!"
As Old Eugene went to get his wallet, he seemed to ask casually: "How did you find me?"
"I have special tracking skills." Derian raised the corners of his mouth and answered with a rich and arrogant accent.
"Well, maybe I was wrong before. You are an excellent detective. All my money is here..."
Old Eugene handed the wallet to Adrian, with a cold look in his eyes.
The moment Adrian took the wallet, Old Eugene's fingers moved quickly, and a blade appeared between his index and middle fingers, wiping across Derian's neck.
Gulu, Gulu!
A large amount of blood poured out of Derian's neck. He grabbed his neck desperately, but was unable to stop the flow of blood and could not make a sound.
Eventually, he fell to the ground and turned into a corpse.
"You broke the rules, Derian!"
Old Eugene whispered coldly: "Because of your stupid idea, I have to change my identity again, damn it!"
He bent down and prepared to dispose of the body. When he was searching the body, his expression changed and he took out a diamond the size of a thumb from Derian's pocket!
"This is……"
Old Eugene's eyes were instantly attracted by the bright light of the diamond, and he kept rubbing his fingers: "My baby..."
His expression became a little confused, so he hid the diamond close to his body, disguised himself, and walked out of the hotel.
Originally, old Eugene was prepared to stay away from the city immediately.
But the next moment, he passed by a garden and saw children playing and playing, and he hesitated for a moment...
