The most common and simplest way to classify archives is the initial letter method.

Thanks to this, Chi Yu and Kerver found the dossier labeled "Elizabeth Campbell" without much effort.

After Kver flipped through the two pages to make sure he found nothing wrong, he took out his camera, pointed it at the file, and took a picture with a click.

Then, he gestured towards Chi Yu, who was not far away.

That means "evacuate".

Although Chi Yu was a little puzzled, he did not ask.

The two quickly left the archives room and hid in the corner of the corridor under the leadership of Kver.

Chi Yu remained silent and followed his companion's gaze to the direction of the archives room.

After a while.

With a shout, a group of policemen, led by a curly-haired police officer, roughly pushed open the door to the archives room and poured in one after another.

Taking this opportunity, Kerver and Chi Yu quickly walked out of their hiding place and ran straight to the door of the police station.

During this period, Kerver also stuffed the keys kindly provided by the curly-haired police officer under the newspaper at the front desk.

As soon as the two of them arrived on the street, there were several deep angry shouts coming from inside the police station, as well as pleading sounds from the curly-haired police officer.

Kver snorted proudly: "I knew he was dishonest."

Chi Yu still didn't react.

It's not that her IQ has dropped, it's just... that she has not yet left the university campus, and it is really difficult for her to adapt to the dangers of society in a short period of time.

She sorted out the current situation and asked her companion: "Did that police officer just want to fish for law enforcement?"

"Isn't it obvious?"

Kver smiled and said, "You can tell it from the look in his eyes before. We are foreigners, and we have a lot of good stuff. If not, who will cheat us?"

Orvis... is really a good place with simple folk customs.

Chi Yu complained again.

At the same time, the doubts in her heart became more and more intense.

For what purpose did Roland's mother and Elizabeth Campbell come to such a barbaric island and settle here for many years?

With such doubts.

The two found a photo studio, paid 5 pounds and half a pack of cigarettes, and rushed to develop the photos.

Kervill's photography skills are pretty good, and the camera in his hand is obviously high-end - the investigation of extramarital affairs is the main source of income for private detectives.

Chi and Yu randomly found a deserted corner and began to study the information obtained from the police station.

The first page of the dossier records some basic information.

[Name: Elizabeth Campbell. 】

[Date of birth: July 1900, 7. 】

[Occupation: Painter. 】

[Relationship: unknown. 】

[Remarks: He came to Orvis Island to settle in 1917 and currently lives at No. 4, Shenzhen Street. 】

Under the date of birth, there is a line of writing that looks very new, obviously it was added recently.

[Date of death: July 1921, 7, night. 】

[Presumed cause of death: suicide. 】

Chi and Yu's eyes swept over these less important information, and soon turned to the records behind.The first few pages are mostly about Elizabeth Campbell's life in recent years, including whether she has violated the rules, whether she has left Orvis, how many paintings she has sold in total, how much tax she needs to pay, etc. .

Looking at the transaction amounts, Kver couldn't help but sigh again.

"As expected of a well-known painter, he has made more money in five years than I have in a lifetime." He touched his chin, "Isn't this a murder case for money? The mastermind is Anna, who is said to have a good relationship with her , the police who covered him up and gave false evidence were accomplices?”

Facing Chi Yu's somewhat complicated gaze, Kerver hurriedly said: "Just kidding...Elizabeth pays a lot of taxes to the police station every year. No matter how stupid the police here are, they still know how to choose after a full meal." of."

This episode was quickly skipped.

The two of them continued to scroll down.

at last.

At the end, the needed clue is found.

It was a transcript, dated at 7:3 in the morning on July [-].

It can be seen that Elizabeth is a very time-conscious person.

The content of the transcript is very simple. In summary, Elizabeth reported to the police that Dr. Zoroyard of the Candelin (Tinder) Clinic was secretly conducting transactions with terrorists. She asked the police to seal down the clinic immediately.

The police responded: They will investigate as soon as possible.

Judging from Kerver's experience and Chi Yu's intuition... this is obviously just a euphemistic excuse.

Elizabeth may have realized this, so she left cleanly without saying anything more.

Chi Yu pondered for a moment: "Isn't Elizabeth a big taxpayer? Logically speaking, the police should give her some preferential treatment..."

But there is no trace of "privilege" at all from this transcript.

Kver snapped his fingers: "The only person who can defeat a big taxpayer is another big taxpayer."

"what do you mean……"

"This Dr. Zoroyard must be a powerful lord, and must be related to the real cause of Elizabeth's death."

Kver said in a determined tone, "Even if Elizabeth really commits suicide, he must be the biggest inducement!"

If you want to ask why.

Elizabeth called the police on the morning of the 3rd, claiming that the Tinder Clinic had a deal with terrorists, and died tragically at home that night.To say that there was no human factor involved...even the police officers who were as stupid as pigs probably wouldn't believe it.

Chi Yu nodded in agreement: "Then our next plan is to investigate this clinic called 'Huozhong'?"

She asked cautiously, "Is there any danger?"

After all, he is a powerful taxpayer and is suspected of being involved in the murder.

Given the xenophobia of Orvis Island, even if they were killed and dumped by Dr. Zoroyard, the police would probably not bother to care.

"It's just a simple investigation. As long as the other party is a smart person, he won't attack us easily."

Chi Yu could understand what he meant.

If Elizabeth's death is really related to the doctor, since the latter came up with a "suicide" excuse to cover up the fact that he committed murder, it means that he does not want others to know about it.

Knowing that Chi Yu and Kevir were just two mercenaries, instead of killing them and alerting the enemy, it was better to put some thought into dealing with them.

But even so, Chi Yu didn't want to pin his life or death on "whether the enemy is smart or not."

"rest assured."

Seemingly sensing her concerns, Kver flashed the pistol hidden inside his windbreaker, "Don't you understand me yet? I cherish my life very much."

"I will not put myself in danger until I have earned enough gold pounds to live on for the rest of my life."
