Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

The first thing that Hobert thought of was the law of aggregation of extraordinary characteristics. If he guessed correctly, there must be a magical item or extraordinary person about the "lawyer" path hidden in this seemingly ordinary case.

When he was handling Mr. Barron's case before, he was 100% sure from the "country lawyer" described by Penny that he was an extraordinary person in the "lawyer" path!

Hobert smiled helplessly: I should have thought a long time ago that the "State of Disorder" is the factor that the "lawyer" path and the "arbitrator" path have become in the past. It is like a huge magnet, attracting these people. The extraordinary properties of both paths came to me.

Then he reflected on himself: In the past month or so, I still have not completed the transformation of my thinking from the AD era to the extraordinary world. My previous life experiences are certainly useful, but this is an extraordinary world, and the rules here are more important.

Airlie saw Hobert in a daze, and he smiled proudly and said: "How about Mr. Lawyer? I have told you before that our family has never had a dog."

Hobert asked: "Where did the barking we heard come from?"

"The Henry family who lives behind has a dog!" Airlie said: "I think his dog ran out and first came to my yard, and then to that old guy Polly's yard.

"As for their insistence that the dog ran out of the basement of my house, I think Polly made a mistake because he was blind, and he didn't dare to go to Henry's house to question him, so he despicably blamed me for it. .”

Coming out of the basement, Airlie pointed to the black-themed house in the back to Hobert: "That's Henry's house."

That house gave people a lifeless feeling. The curtains and door curtains of the house were all tight, as if no one had lived in it for a long time.

Airlie explained: "The Henry family's children seem to have a rare disease, which makes them pale and afraid of the sun, so their home has always been so strict.

“Henry was a cloth merchant with a stern face and a look that was very difficult to get along with. The neighbors were unwilling to deal with him.

"Oh, speaking of which, it seems that their family has not been out for several days."

When Hobert went out from the backyard of Airlie's house and came to Henry's house, he heard the barking coming from the basement.

Hobert knocked on the courtyard door, but there was no answer, so he pushed open the courtyard door and knocked on the room door.

After waiting outside the door for more than half a minute, I heard the sound of someone walking inside the house. The person seemed to be unable to lift his feet. The soles of his shoes scraped against the floor and came to the door. He asked in a very hoarse voice: "Who?"

Hobert briefly introduced himself and then explained his purpose: "Can I go to your basement and see the dogs that are kept there?"

The hoarse voice said: "Our whole family has a very serious flu. If you don't want to be infected, just come back in a few days."

Hobert thought for a while and then said: "Okay, I will come again this week. I hope your cold will get better as soon as possible."

Back at Mr. Polly's house, Mr. Polly heard that there was no dog in Airlie's house, but there was a dog barking in the basement of Henry's house.

Mr. Polly shook his head repeatedly and said: "Sir, although I am old, I am not so old that my eyesight is dim. Besides, I am not the only one. Everyone saw that giant dog coming out of the basement of Airlie's house."

Hobert looked out the window. There was only a country road between the basements of Airlie and Henry's houses: "Maybe there is another possibility..."

He smiled and said, "Let's talk about Mr. Henry."

"Oh, Henry is not a guy to be trifled with." Polly said while filling his pipe: "Last year a thief broke into their house, and Henry beat him into a man who could only say 'He is dead. He's dead' fool.

“Their family moved here when I was young, and I also attended the funeral of Henry Sr., oh, now Mr. Henry’s father, and Henry Jr.’s grandfather.

"Originally, their family was quite enthusiastic, but since little Henry got a strange disease three years ago, their family has become strange..."

I listened to Mr. Polly talking for a long time, but there was not much useful information.

However, Hobert was certain that Henry's family was by no means an ordinary cloth merchant. He decided to investigate again after receiving the reward of "Mr. Hanged Man".

After explaining to Mr. Polly that he would come again in the next few days, Hobert said goodbye and left.

As soon as he returned to the law office, Hobert received a letter from the Mercenary Club. From yesterday evening to this morning, "Private" had received two packages.

Hobert didn't expect the package of "The Hanged Man" to arrive so quickly, but after thinking about it for a moment, he understood that the package must have come back with the mercenaries who had withdrawn from the Southern Continent, so the package was delivered by the mercenaries. club.

So after finishing his lunch, Hobert went out again to "visit customers."

Hobert was not in a hurry to get the package, but sat in the sofa area for a while, drinking the black tea provided by the club. He learned from the discussions of the surrounding members that the extraordinary people who went to the Southern Continent to ambush the Feysac Empire were hired. Sure enough, a group of soldiers had returned by airship.

Many people already know the specific results of the battle, having killed two old opponents of Sequence 5, six of Sequence 6, seventeen of Sequence 7, as well as several Sequence 8 and Sequence 9.

And it is said that in addition to extraordinary properties, the loot this time also has many magical items and two sealed items.

It is conceivable that at this weekend's Extraordinary gathering, there will be many participants selling trophies.

Hobert calculated his current wealth, which is nearly 1,100 pounds. If there is a suitable magical item by then, he will definitely take it!

After drinking two cups of black tea, he went to the front desk to pick up "Private"'s package.

Hobert did not leave immediately, but asked the waiter to find him a small interview room. After closing the door, he opened the first package, which was 600 pounds in cash.

Hobert counted it happily, and then took out his wallet. Well, the wallet could no longer fit, so he had to stuff it into the lined pocket.

At this time, Hobert misses the life of online payment. The money in his mobile phone will not be the target of criminals such as thieves and robbers.

Another package contained a dark ring box. Hobert held the ring in his hand without feeling any discomfort, so he put it on his index finger.

The moment he put it on, he immediately had in his mind more than a dozen ways to attack the enemy with the cane, as well as how to coordinate the attack and defense with his hands during battle.

Hobert smiled slightly, this was exactly the ability he needed.

He looked at the package shell on the table. It must be destroyed! To prevent others from finding out your identity.

Just tear it into pieces, no, no, what if someone picks it up and puts it back together?

But how to destroy it? fire? What if a fire occurs?

Or...wait a minute, Hobert later thought that his worries were the negative effects of the ring.

Asking for a monthly ticket~
