Chapter 101: Follow the clues

 Tom and Pippen decided to start with the possibility of murder and start the investigation in the mountain park. During the process, they would find out the origin of the baby who suddenly appeared. The two incidents may be related to some extent.

However, judging from the relationship between de Gaulle and them, it is absolutely impossible for the two parties to reach cooperation, so de Gaulle decided not to go to the mountain park yet.

Before leaving last night, the detectives talked about some things with Dutch. De Gaulle found out that Dutch had hired a private doctor to treat his wife more than a month ago. That man was Depp S.

Nory, who opened a clinic at 45 Baker Street, whom de Gaulle had met in the past.

"The world is so big that we never know how many secrets are hidden in the darkness, but the world is so small that people living on the same street will be involved in the same case..."

The next morning, Victor came to the Smart Eye Detective Agency to report as scheduled, and the owner of the agency said the above words after seeing him.

Since he arrived at the office at the appointed time, it proved that Victor was willing to accept the assistant's job, which made de Gaulle very happy.

As for why he came here, Victor had his own considerations.

To be honest, he has no interest in Dutch's case, nor in the Berkeley family's reputation or money.

What Victor is mainly interested in is de Gaulle.

Not only to find out the connection between his destiny and hers, but also to repay the favor of the headless little girl.

At least I helped de Gaulle solve this case. Maybe during the contact, I can see some clues...

"So you are going to start an investigation from the private doctor?" Victor sat on the sofa and swept the messy clothes and pants next to him to the floor.

"Obviously, Watson...Tom and Pippin are chasing the murderer, but I am more interested in Mrs. Salsa's mental problems."

De Gaulle was tying his tie, looking in the mirror and analyzing to Victor.

"The causes of mental illness are diverse. Medically speaking, it is caused by various factors that cause strong stimulation of the brain, leading to paroxysmal brain dysfunction...including convulsions, disturbance of consciousness, and sensory dysfunction.

Symptoms such as behavioral disorders, memory loss, auditory hallucinations, etc. also have congenital and acquired theories..."

"But no matter what the symptoms are, at least there must be an inducement. I mean... the inducement that caused Mrs. Shasa to abduct a child... So, I need to talk to Dr. Depp. He must have what I want."

Clues."

After cleaning up, de Gaulle finally picked up the pipe on the table and called Victor to follow him quickly.

As soon as the two of them walked out of the apartment door, Victor curiously asked again: "Have you never considered the art of invisibility?"

De Gaulle lit his pipe, took a sip and replied: "We can't consider everything from the aspect of strange power and chaos. That would make human beings appear particularly incompetent. Of course...if the investigation reaches that point, it should naturally be attributed to invisible techniques. It will be attributed to it."

In the invisible art."

He was smoking a cigarette and walking in front of Victor towards the other end of the street. Dr. Depp's clinic should be in that direction.

"You should pray that this case has nothing to do with invisible magic...because in that case, it will be very difficult for us to get the reward..."

De Gaulle was holding his pipe in his mouth and joking with Victor, but from his eyes, Victor could see that the other party hated supernatural intervention.

"Yes, I don't want to find out a bunch of mysterious incidents until the end, and eventually involve those bastards from the Inspection Bureau... You know, the invisible art, it disrupts logic and natural laws, everything

The detective's reasoning and deductions all seem funny and ridiculous in the face of such a power... This is a power that should not appear in the world. Precisely because of the existence of seers and extraordinary phenomena, there may be more than one truth."<

/p>

With grumbling in their mouths, the two of them arrived in front of the store called Renshan Clinic.

Unfortunately today, Dr. Depp is not at home, only one of his young and beautiful female nurse assistants is.

"The doctor is here. Is it one of you who is feeling unwell? Or is there someone at home..."

"Sorry to disturb you..." De Gaulle stated his intention directly, "We want to ask Dr. Depp about Mrs. Salsa's condition."

"Well... you are..." The female assistant's performance was a bit repulsive.

"Like Dr. Depp, we also accepted Mr. Dutch's commission."

After Victor finished adding, the female nurse finally let go of her vigilance.

She said: "But Dr. Depp won't come today, you may need to come another day."

Unfortunately, there was no choice but to leave the clinic.

"Okay! Let's go back to the office and think of other ways first..." Before de Gaulle could finish his words, he suddenly saw a woman entering the clinic just after they left.

"That woman..." Victor followed de Gaulle's gaze and recognized her immediately.

"It's one of Mr. Dutch's maids. We both met her last night." De Gaulle quickly called Victor and returned to the door of the clinic. He found that the maid had gone in to get medicine and came out quickly.<

/p>

The two parties met each other, but the maid did not recognize them and looked at them with confusion and vigilance.

"Don't be nervous. We just met last night. We are private detectives..." After de Gaulle told the other party his identity, the maid calmed down.

"Excuse me, what's the matter?"

"Are you here to buy medicine for Mrs. Shasa?"

"Um...yes..."

"I want to check these medicines, can I?"

De Gaulle made a rude request. The maid was not very happy at first, but after Victor took out 50 cents and handed it to her, the maid finally gritted her teeth and opened the contents of her pocket for the two of them to observe.

"Chlorpromazine, haloperidol, sulpiride..."

De Gaulle muttered something, but Victor did not recognize these medicines.

"These medicines have certain side effects. Did Dr. Depp prescribe them to you?" De Gaulle raised his face, startling the little maid.

The other party carefully replied: "Yes...it is the list of medicines that Mr. Parker checked..."

"Who is Parker?"

"The general manager hired by Mr. Dutch... He is responsible for all internal affairs in Stormwind Villa and is the superior of all servants and employees..."

"Please explain in detail, was this list prescribed by Dr. Depp or was it purchased by Parker?"

"Dr. Depp prescribed it. Mr. Parker checked it and assigned me to buy it..."

"After buying it back, will Mr. Parker check it again?"

"Yes..."

Because Storm Villa occupies a large area and has many internal security and domestic servants, it is quite cumbersome to manage. Therefore, the position of general affairs management has been specially set up, which is equivalent to regional management and is finally reported to Mr. Parker.

After sending away the maid, de Gaulle turned his head and winked at Victor.

"I thought of a possibility. If someone tampered with the medicine, would it worsen Mrs. Shasa's condition?"

"This is too much of a conspiracy theory..." Victor once again pointed out de Gaulle's excessive speculation. "Dr. Depp only received the commission from Mr. Dutch after Mrs. Salsa became mentally ill."

"Yes, but as I told you last night, if there is really a black hand behind this, maybe he will not be happy to see Mrs. Salsa cured..." De Gaulle smiled and pecked the cigarette holder, "

And I didn’t say Dr. Depp was the black hand.”

"Ha...I understand, are you beginning to doubt Mr. Parker again now?"

"Everyone is likely to commit a crime, because we are still confused about the truth. We have to dig deeper based on subtle clues. Excluding one more person can also advance the progress of the case. What do you think?"
