Wizard: Gou adds a little bit of hunting in the era of steam

Chapter 25 Money, when will it be settled?

"..."

Wei En pointed to his uniform, "I just came to investigate No. [-], it hasn't been more than half a day."

"...If you hadn't told me, I would have thought that you have been in the Investigation Department for a long time. Have you really never done anything similar to the Secret Investigation Department before?"

"No, I have read a few detective mystery novels."

Marco raised his eyebrows and said, "Conan Doyle's "The Devil Detective Sherlock Holmes Series"?"

"Hey, have you seen it too?"

"A loyal fan, I have one signed by Conan Doyle..."

boom!
Lacey slapped him, "Marco, it's work time!"

Marco squatted on the ground covering his head, his face grim in pain.

If he couldn't beat her now, he would have to stand up and "resist".

"Wayne, is there no other better way?"

Wei En thought for a while and said, "It's not like there's nothing we can do."

Lacey's eyes lit up, "Tell me about it."

"According to what it says on the parchment, the price for using 'it' is the souls and blood of 3000 people, and now there are only more than 300 people missing in the slums..."

No matter what the person's purpose is, the price of using forbidden objects 0-34 to revive the coffin is necessary.

As long as you stick to the source, you will definitely find something.

According to his speculation, those people who disappeared in the slums are probably still alive.

Lacey reacted, "Excuse me, there will be someone missing?"

The appearance of a new forbidden object shocked her so much that she even ignored such an obvious reminder.

"Well," Wayne nodded, "If this condition is true..."

"He dares to continue, really doesn't care about our secret investigation department?" Marco said in surprise: "Isn't he afraid of the sanction of my heroic investigator?"

"You, heroic inquisitor?"

Lacey glanced at him and said, "Then can you be given full responsibility for this case? As a heroic investigator like you, I will give you two days to conclude the case, okay?"

"No, I was just joking." Marco laughed dryly.

"Humph,"

Lacey rolled her eyes, then looked at the parchment and said, "Then I'll report to Yegor first, and see if he has a better way."

Reporting according to what Wei En said is indeed much more reasonable than when she went straight to Yegor and said "the case is solved".

At least this case now has an investigation direction.

Seeing that she was about to leave, Wei En quickly raised his hand and said, "I have it."

"Have you come up with any good ideas?" Lacey looked at him expectantly.

"Oh no," Wei En rubbed his hands and said with a shy smile, "Captain, when do you think the funds for the translation will be settled?"

Lacey: "..."

Marco: "..."

There was an instant silence in the office.

The white-haired girl looked at her confusedly, "Tina wants the funds."

Lacey looked at him for a while, then sighed and said, "Wayne, next time something like this happens, you can just talk about it."

Then she took out a wallet from her pocket, counted out three 1-gold banknotes, and stuffed one of them into Tina's hand, "This is for Tina, as your reward for using 'Spiritual Vision' .”

"Wei En, this is your...2 gold pounds!"

Ok?
Why did you emphasize the accent?
It means that this money is a hard-earned financial reward, so you should spend it sparingly, right?
Must, the money must be spent on the back of the knife!

Wei En quickly took the money and said with a bright smile: "Thank you, captain, don't forget me next time something good like this happens. I still have some experience in the Gonzalez language."

It’s not easy to make money. Not only do you have to translate the content, but you also have to work hard to find the direction of the case...

Lacey smiled stiffly, and squeezed out a sentence between her teeth: "I will inevitably trouble you in the future."

God knows, she almost broke her teeth.

Good guy... you've made money, and you don't even mention paying it back, right?

Hey,
Forget it,

They are all colleagues in the Ministry of Education, not to mention the rare scholars who are good at Gonzales.

Based on his ability to translate a piece of parchment in less than an hour, the entire investigation department had to surrender him.

Two gold pounds...my two gold pounds...

Lacey turned around and left the office with a melancholy look on his face.

Marco looked at her leaving figure and wondered, "What happened to her?"

Wei En counted the two bills several times before putting them into his pocket, and said casually: "As a woman, you feel unwell for a few days every month."

Speaking of which, after spending half a day together, he had basically figured out the personalities and work styles of these people.

Lacey has a straightforward personality and acts carelessly.

It can be seen from the previous files that she is better at solving crimes on the rampage.To put it simply, it is better to use your hands than your brain.

Marco is, well, a bit simpler.

As for Tina... she is a bit mysterious and has a weird personality, a type he has never come into contact with.

"Wayne, how do you know so much?"

"Don't you know?" Wei En was stunned for a moment.

Marco shook his head, "I know some of the other girls, but Lacey... rarely sees her like this."

Wei En said with a guilty conscience: "Maybe this case is too difficult, she is a little stressed."

Don’t all women in this world have their periods?
Thinking of the nocturnal emission last night, it's not impossible.

"Maybe,"

Marco smiled again, stepped forward and put his arms around his shoulders and said, "Wei En, this is the first time I've met a newcomer as powerful as you, do you want to go to the city that never sleeps together tonight?"

Wayne said honestly: "Tonight? The captain said yesterday that he would take me to experience Custer's nightlife tonight."

"Her? Take you to experience the nightlife?"

"what happened?"

Marco covered his stomach and laughed: "Wayen, you, you were deceived by her. How does she know where the nightlife is, haha..."

"Huh? Isn't it?"

"Of course not,"

Marco waited for a while and then said with a mysterious face: "I'm telling you, don't tell her."

Wei En nodded again and again, "Yeah."

"Before, Lacey wanted to experience the nightlife, but Roget and I had to take her there."

Marco suppressed his smile and said, "So the two of us found a random place and took her to play cards all night."

"card?"

"Roland's Thirteen Cards is a very popular way of playing here in Chartland. I'll show you how to play it later."

It sounds like Texas Hold'em.

Then Wayne looked at him suspiciously, "So where did you take her?"

"Roget and I pooled together three gold pounds, rented a two-story building, and held a midnight drinking party."

"Why don't you take her to that city that never sleeps?"

"Shh!"

Marco turned his head to look at Tina who was not far away, and whispered: "It's a place where only men can go. If Lacey finds out, she will definitely tear it down."

"I understand,"

Wei En suddenly realized that it was that kind of place, "Then show me around."

"No problem, as long as you don't tell Lacey what programs are there, I'll take you there."

"Yeah, of course not. However, you two really spent money to prevent her from finding out, three gold pounds..."

I'm really willing to spend, so much money can be exchanged for "Alchemy (Introduction)".

"You don't understand that, do you?"

Marco said proudly: "The reception cost a lot, but we also charged 5 gold pounds for the ticket. Speaking of which, I have to thank Lacey for letting Roget and I discover a new way of making money."

At this time, Lacey opened the door and walked in. Seeing the appearance of the two of them, he wondered: "What way of making money?"

Marco responded quickly: "Ah, it's nothing. I just want to say that since Wei En understands Gonzales, he can definitely make money..."

"That's right, that's what I said."

Wei En touched his nose guiltily. He just wanted to go to the city that never sleeps to see it, and he didn't intend to lie.

Lacey glanced at the two of them suspiciously, then looked at the white-haired girl, "Tina?"

The white-haired girl tilted her head and looked at them, and repeated briefly: "Tina heard that they were going to the city that never sleeps. They lied to Lacey before, and it was not a nightlife!"

"Tina, Tina..."

Marco's face was ashen. He forgot that there was a person who couldn't lie. He was dead.
