The wooden steps fell to dust, and Safia, who was listening to the whole process, walked out, her eyes swept over everyone: "I think it's because of us that old Daly was taken away."

Chapter 365 After Dark (47), Gray Dove Detective Agency took over your commission

Probably because the meditation was interrupted midway.

Safia's face was tired, and even the golden bangs on her forehead were a little messy.

She stroked her hair, and continued what she said just now: "Do you still remember what we left for the old Daly family?"

"Fire candle."

Su Mali shook her head slightly: "Isn't it too hasty to be charged with blasphemy against Irene just because of this kind of thing?"

"The fire candle is just the fuse, the real reason should be,"

Safia looked at Maggie standing by the door: "Your sister, Beth."

Hearing this name, the latter's pupils opened slightly, and a slightly contrived look appeared on his face: "It's that person! The knight that my father begged for a long time to invite.

He made unreasonable demands on Beth, and he held a grudge after being rejected, so he found a reason to take his father away?

How could this be, how could this be!

We didn't hold him accountable for his excesses, so why should we hold on to him?

No, I'm going to the cathedral to report this matter and prove my father's innocence! "

Speaking of which, Maggie was about to run out of the house, but fortunately, Mia caught her quickly with her sharp eyesight.

Qin Nuo, who was watching coldly, also quietly appeared in front of the door at this time, like a door god blocking the exit.

He didn't point it out, but looked at the other party with the black eyes under the deerstalker hat, and asked calmly, "How do you plan to report it?"

Maggie shook off Mia's hand and stepped forward: "I will find the priest and explain what happened."

"What if the priest doesn't believe it?"

"Then I'll go to the bishop."

"The bishop doesn't believe it either?"

"I will beg the Pope to listen."

"How many times have you met the Pope since you were born?

I mean face-to-face, close contact kind. "

Maggie froze for a moment, unable to answer.

The pope has a high status, except for Christmas and important celebrations, he will appear in public.

For the rest of the time, it is as hard as heaven for ordinary people to see.

Maggie has been married to Rochester for eight years, and she has only seen her from a distance a few times in the crowd.

"If it's useful to find a church, what else do you want to do with a detective agency?"

Qin Nuo looked at her attire for a while, and said to himself: "Let me take a guess.

You've been to church, and you've explained what happened to a nun or a priest.

But the church refuses, and offers to redeem old Daly with chips that you cannot afford.

In desperation, you have to pin your hopes on us, cheap and responsive detectives. "

Four pairs of eyes fell on the same figure.

An atmosphere called "quiet" permeates the house.

After a while, the figure spoke slowly, with despair and pleading in his tone: "They want to take everything away.

If you agree, your father, mother, and sister will be homeless. "

"You can take them to live together in the city, there is no need to offend the church."

Su Marie asked puzzledly.

"I can't, I can't."

Speaking of this, Maggie bit her lips tightly, as if she had something hard to say.

Several players present were even more puzzled.

Mia tugged at Qin Nuo's sleeve, and said in a low voice, "Sister Maggie's husband is a gambler and owes a lot of debt.

Debt collectors sometimes go to the apartment to block the door, and sometimes they squat on the road, forcing Sister Maggie to pay back the money. "

"To collect a debt from a woman?"

Safia frowned: "The gambling debt owed by the husband should be repaid by himself."

"The man ran away two years ago, and the casino couldn't find anyone to collect debts from Maggie's sister.

In the past two years, she has been hiding it from her family and working hard to pay off her debts. "

Mia shrank her shoulders, like a child who made a mistake: "I'm sorry, boss, I lied.

It is usually not Maggie who helps me, but I sometimes give her the extra food.

You know, it's tough being a woman with debts to pay and two kids to support.

Sometimes I have to go to that kind of place to do things when I have to.

She was almost kicked out by the landlord several times because she couldn't make up the rent.

But I can assure you that Sister Maggie is really a good person. "

No wonder old Daly was able to come up with 500 shillings as a reward.

Maggie, who is the eldest daughter, wears starched white clothes with many mendings, and her face is faintly dusty.

How can a woman who is struggling to support herself help her homeless parents and sister?

How will the family feel when they see a woman who is supposed to be living happily in a big city in their impression, but has fallen like this.

Elderly parents helping with debt? Rochester has no room for old people.

Maybe Nian Beth will also be dragged to the Fengyue place by debt collectors to repay the debt.

Su Marie waved her hand, and didn't get too entangled in this matter.

There are many miserable people in the world, each with their own difficulties.

Continue to ask, just increase the sadness.

He changed the subject: "The church asked your family to hand over the land?"

"Well, the transfer fee for the whole farmland is only 100 shillings."

100 shillings is not enough for a family of three to spend a month in Rochester.

How is this different from grabbing.

"Hehe, the Church really plays the villain as always."

Qin Nuo rubbed his chin, and muttered to himself: "Even if the leaders at the top want to be enlightened, the ghosts and monsters below are still obedient.

The greater the power, the greater the desire. "

"Hey, what are you talking about?"

Su Mali raised her eyebrows, and her eyes hinted that there were other people here.

Fortunately, Maggie and Mia didn't pay attention.

Safia approached his teammates in a leisurely manner, and said lightly: "Although the source does not lie with us, there is always something to do with it.

Letting it go, doesn't seem to be in line with the purpose of our detective agency. "

Does the Gray Pigeon Detective Agency have a purpose?

Su Marie scratched her head, thinking that at best we would charge less.

If this can be regarded as the purpose, then it is a bit pitiful.

But this is the end of the story, evasion is really not in line with the loving and helpful image that has been painstakingly created recently.

He thought to himself: "If the detectives and the church don't deal with it, we will be troubled sooner or later if we don't make trouble.

Just take the initiative, maybe there will be surprises. "

Thinking of this, Su Marie raised her eyes, passed Mia, and met Maggie's eyes full of expectation: "Maggie, Gray Pigeon Detective Agency has taken over your commission."

The rest is much simpler.

According to the established procedure, Maggie, as the client, issues a commission to the detective agency.

Commissioned content: Go to the Red Pine Forest Church and rescue the slandered Daley Field.

Entrustment remuneration...

When Maggie rummaged through her pockets awkwardly and took out a dozen scattered coins, Su Mali took a symbolic 1 penny out of them.

Helping people solve problems without charging money is called a good thing.

Only when the money is received is the entrustment.

Promising to leave early tomorrow morning, Qin Nuo found a lame reason that he might encounter bad guys on the road, and escorted Maggie and Mia away.

On the way, Mimi slipped a 1-pound note to Maggie.

If anyone can't stand Qin Nuo, who can't wait for a dollar to be broken into two petals, and who has always regarded himself as poor, Trumpet, it means that person is really miserable.

Under Maggie's gratitude and the Kanban lady's adoring eyes, the two parties waved goodbye and went away in opposite directions.

Chapter 366 After Dark (48), Explosive Liver

Coastal Street.

If Sailor Street is a typical example of Rochester's "dirty mess", then Promenade Street can be said to be a concentration of bedbugs, rats, and cockroaches.

Bugs are beggars, rats are thieves, cockroaches are gang members.

As usual, the No. 10 bus was on its way, and Qin Nuo arrived at this street equated with the slums in [-] minutes.

Sewage flowed across the street, and the air was filled with a lingering stench.

Qin Nuo's rare appearance with black hair and black eyes and well-dressed attire attracted a lot of attention.

Curiosity, envy, jealousy, speculation...

Stepping forward, squatting on the side of the road, beggars in ragged clothes stretched out their palms to beg.

Pretending to be chasing and playing, in fact, a child who wants to steal a wallet is slowly approaching.

The skinny gangster, who deliberately exposed his shoulder tattoo, fiddled with the knife in his pocket with malicious intentions.

Pedestrians in the whole street regarded Qin Nuo as a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered, eager to suck blood and meat.

Fortunately, these behaviors stopped abruptly after the appearance of the waist exorcist gun.

Everyone went back to their own business, as if they had never seen him.

Qin Nuo snorted coldly, and walked swaggeringly in the middle of the street.

No one dared to stand in the way.

Follow the house number and finally stop in front of a long house.

Linan Street, No. 69.

Very nice numbers.

Take out the key and turn the lock.

Accompanied by the scratching and rubbing of "creaking", Qin Nuo entered the house and closed the door smoothly.

The empty single room looks like it has been ransacked by robbers.

The old wooden floor is the only thing in the house that can barely meet the "furniture".

This is the rented house by Qin Nuo.

As for why it was chosen here, firstly, it was located in a remote place, and secondly, the surrounding terrain was complicated, making it easy to escape.
