Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

Generally speaking, formal court cases are sometimes postponed, but rarely are they brought forward!

Bob's case was originally scheduled to go to court next Thursday, but now it will go to court this Friday, the day after tomorrow.

Originally, Hobert wanted to find a few witnesses, but now he has no time at all!

Something's wrong!

Hobert knew immediately that something was wrong.

At this time, the receptionist of the firm came to the office: "Lawyer Hobert, someone is looking for you."

"Oh." Hobert came to his senses, put away the official letter, and came to the reception room while thinking about how to deal with it.

There was a well-dressed butler in the reception room. He smiled and said: "Mr. Hobert, my master Mr. Arnold asks you to go to the banquet in the evening. This is the invitation."

Hobert looked at the butler and suddenly understood. He smiled and said, "Okay, I will definitely go."

The butler bowed slightly and said goodbye to Hobert politely.

Hobert threw the invitation on the office floor and took another look at the official letter. This was a demonstration!

He sat on the chair, crossed his arms and began to think about how to deal with it.

Ten minutes later, he suddenly jumped up from his chair, put on his windbreaker, took his briefcase and cane, and quickly left the office.

As soon as he left, Hobert discovered that there were two people following him almost openly.

This is also a demonstration.

Hobert smiled and shook his head. If these people had threatened his family and his life in the AD era, he might have compromised in a cowardly manner.

But now he was still compromising, and when he pushed him into a panic, he simply went to Arnold's house, and then found a street lamp to hang him up.

But now is not the time to turn over the table. Back at the rental house, Forsi is having a meal and Xio is yawning, ready to take a nap after thinking about it for a while.

Forsi saw Hobert: "What time is it? Are you getting off work?"

"I have something urgent!" Hobert said: "Xiu, take some of your rest time and issue an urgent commission to you."

He took out a piece of organized paper and handed it to her: "Do you remember my client Bob's employer Arnold?"

Xio put down the magazine: "Remember."

Hobert said: "The names on the note are employees who have worked in Arnold's factory. Use your fastest speed to find them. It doesn't matter if you can't find them all. Just find four or five.

"Then ask them to testify in court on Friday. You can give them some money, but when you give the money, you must explain that it is to compensate them for missing work, not to use the money to ask them to testify."

As he spoke, he took out 30 pounds in cash: "This is the commission for this commission."

Xio took away 20 pounds: "These are enough." After saying that, she put on her hat and went out immediately.

Hobert then said to Forsi, who was chewing slowly: "I also give you a commission. You go to Viscount Gray Linte's mansion and inform him and Miss Audrey that I will hold a meeting tomorrow morning. 'Justice League' Emergency Reunion."

Saying this he took out a 2 pound note from his wallet.

But Forsi only took out 1 pound of it: "Just sending a letter, 1 pound is enough."

She began to eat faster.

After Hobert said hello, he immediately went out, but the two people who were following him were at the door of the house, smoking arrogantly while staring at Hobert.

Hobert walked forward as if nothing was wrong. As he passed them, Hobert suddenly approached them, raised his foot, and stomped hard!

Boom~

The sound of the bones in the arch of the foot breaking.

The person who was stepped on screamed and jumped around in pain while holding his own foot.

Before the other person who was following him understood what was going on, Hobert raised his foot again and stomped it hard!

Then two people appeared on the street, holding their feet and jumping up and down.

Hobert smiled and said: "Sorry, I stepped on your foot. Please be careful when walking in the future, otherwise I may accidentally step on your head."

After saying that, Hobert called a taxi and drove away, leaving only two people holding their feet and crying.

The pedestrians on the street looked a little strange. Didn't they just step on them? As for it hurting like this?

Hobert took a carriage to the Obsidian Bar first. After giving the bartender a tip, he asked him to invite Ms. Daly to come over.

Ten minutes later, a black-haired lady in her thirties came back with the bartender: "Introduce yourself, Loretta, your new contact."

She has good looks and dresses in a masculine way, which gives her a unique androgynous beauty.

Hobert was stunned: "Where is Ms. Daly?"

Could it be that because he failed to save Dunn, he stopped being his connector?

Loretta whispered: "She joined the Red Gloves and just left today. I will be the one to contact you from now on."

Hobert nodded slowly: "I understand, hello Ms. Loretta, my name is Hobert. I believe I don't need to introduce myself in too much detail, right?"

"No need." Loretta smiled and said, "You are a special case in the entire Nighthawks team in the Loen Kingdom."

She asked: "It's not the day to collect wages yet, what can I do?"

Hobert didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Who told you that I can't wait to get my salary?

He asked, "Do you know about Bob's case?"

"heard about it."

"Recently, the defendant Arnold is using some despicable means to win the lawsuit." Hobert said: "I would like to ask you to protect Mr. Bob in the next day or two. If he dies, this lawsuit will not continue. .”

Loretta said: "The church also attaches great importance to this case. I think after the captain gets your news, he will definitely send someone to protect Mr. Bob."

Hobert picked up his cane and prepared to stand up: "Then please."

Then he suddenly thought: "By the way, when I met Qilingers by chance before, I asked Captain Thomas to help me pick up the cane I left at the scene.

"I forgot to ask when I went to the security company last time. Is the cane at your place?"

Loretta was stunned: "There is no cane at the scene."

"It's an ebony stick."

"There is no ebony stick either." Luoluota said: "I was at the scene at the time, and the captain also talked about it, but I didn't find the cane you mentioned."

Hobert had a bad feeling: "It was picked up by someone!"

At that time, Darkholm's house was in terrible condition. The people watching around would probably scream and run away after just one glance. There was only a small chance that they would be taken away.

The greater probability is that someone took the cane with a clear purpose.

This is already the second "Wood of Order" that has failed to be recycled. If it hadn't been for its high status and sufficient anti-divination properties, Hobert would have considered joining the Nighthawks team entirely.

Loretta asked: "Is that cane special?"

"It's nothing." Hobert smiled: "I just suddenly remembered this."
