Chapter 189: A false alarm and
I walked out of the coffee shop alone.
Nicole paused at the door for a few seconds, and then walked towards the other party with a smile on her face as if she had just seen the little boy.
Naturally folding the note in her hand, the investigator girl walked up to the little boy and put on a rather gentle smile:
"Little guy, can you send me a letter?"
Nicole suddenly stopped her. , and then heard that he got the business. Even though the pay for such a job would not be too high, the little boy dressed as a newsboy immediately nodded and replied: "No problem, Miss." "But please send
the
letter Where are you going? Do you have any other specific requirements?"
Nicole shook her head slightly and immediately replied:
"It's nothing too troublesome. You just need to help me mail the letters on time." "
As for the post office, it's Greed. Letter Bureau, remember to record me as a yellow-labeled letter. The specific mailing time will be two days later, and the location will be the owner of the goldsmith shop at No. 26 Long Beach Street." After hearing Nicole's explanation, the boy dressed as a
newsboy His face changed and his tone became a little nervous:
"Madam, what do you mean?"
"Long Beach Street...Long Beach Street is not a good place."
"This letter won't cause me any trouble, will it? , the masthead will generally not agree to us doing this kind of thing."
Seeing the mature concern on the young face of the newsboy that was not in line with her age, Nicole took out the coins from her pocket and handed them over, and at the same time He reached out and touched the little boy's hair.
Under the quick movements of the investigator girl, the little boy had no time to react, just like a kid next door who had his hair messed up by Nicole.
Following this action, Nicole smiled and continued to explain:
"Little guy, don't worry."
"I also work on Long Beach Street. This is not something illegal, and it is the same as the previous paragraph. It has nothing to do with the issues that happened at the National Police Agency." "
But, this is also an internal letter involving relatively important information. I'm sure someone will come to you to inquire about it. In this case, can I ask you to ask for a favor? ?"
As she spoke, the investigator girl patted the little boy on the shoulder.
Throughout the conversation, her actions betrayed her trust in the little guy.
Faced with such an intimate gesture from a young girl, Bubu seemed to relieve the tension in his heart with Nicole's comfort.
Immediately, the little boy nodded vigorously:
"Okay, Miss."
"I...I will help you do this!"
Looking at the little boy whose mood gradually eased, Nicole continued with a gentle smile on her face. He said,
"Thank you very much, my little gentleman."
After saying that, you straightened your back and prepared to walk to the coffee shop.
However, just after this very casual action, the investigator girl saw something different out of the corner of her eye.
It was at the corner in front of this street, and a carriage was slowly driving out from there.
"..."
At this moment, Nicole's pupils tightened.
The investigator girl recognized it. There was no doubt that it was the warden's carriage.
Due to her work, Nicole often appears at some dinner parties or dances in Burrenwich, and disguises herself to provide temporary security for the organizers.
In the process, she naturally saw the warden's carriage, which was obviously the one in front of her.
Without even a second of hesitation, Nicole squatted down in front of the little boy and took out a newspaper from his hand:
"By the way, let me buy another copy of your newspaper."
The little boy immediately thanked him happily:
" Thank you... thank you, miss!"
"This is really a big help."
Although the little boy's emotions were very sincere, Nicole definitely had no time to continue interacting with her now.
Nodding quickly, the girl immediately stepped back with the newspaper in her hand, and then very naturally raised the newspaper in front of her, covering her face.
Walk to the street and lean against the wall.
Nicole looked like an ordinary citizen who had just finished a day's work, bought a newspaper after get off work, and was reading today's news on the roadside. There was nothing eye-catching about her at all.
Click, click, click, click—
from far away to near, the warden's carriage just passed in front of the investigator girl.
As for Nicole, whose sight was blocked by the newspaper, she kept watching the other person's figure carefully.
She could see that the man driving the carriage was the Warden's coachman.
However, sitting next to the coachman, there was a character that made Nicole very wary.
——It's the footman.
——At the same time, he is also the mysterious original controller in the warden's family.
Just as the three of them had expected, when Lumil was going to attend a social dance today, this guy chose to accompany the escort to tonight's dance together.
But although she had already expected it, Nicole was still a little nervous now.
Dangerous codex masters passed by, and there was no doubt that they were hostile.
As soon as she thought of this, she couldn't help but become a little nervous.
If the other party happened to discover him, what would he do next? Will everything come to nothing?
Normally, he would have preemptively struck when encountering such a situation.
But it just so happened that we couldn't alarm the other party today.
Nicole's heart was like a tight thread at this moment.
If you are not careful, it will break.
...
Fortunately, everything is safe.
The original code controller sitting on the carriage was not free enough to turn his attention to a passerby reading a newspaper on the side of the road.
Not paying any attention to Nicole's unremarkable figure, the carriage of the warden's family gradually went away.
Wait until the carriage passes by the street in front of you, and finally completely out of sight.
Nicole let out a sigh of relief.
"Huh..."
She folded the newspaper and stuffed it into her pocket before planning to return to the cafe.
But before taking a few steps, Nicole stopped.
Because right in front of them, Ronald and Swift from the coffee shop had already walked out, quickly came to the investigator girl and asked:
"How are you, are you okay just now?"
With a smile on her face, Nicole immediately shook her head:
"To be honest, it was a bit exciting."
"But it's better now."
"The warden confirmed that he went to the city hall. Lumiel also left with the man just now. Mansion."
Looking at Nicole, whose expression relaxed, Ronald continued:
"So, now is the time for us to take action."
Swift on the side also nodded:
"That's right."
Street Outside the nearby cafe, the three of them looked at each other and then walked in the direction of Linzhong Road in tacit agreement.
Exactly a quarter of an hour had passed since the three of them entered the cafe. At this time, it is also when people start to get off work and the streets are most crowded and complex.
Mixed in this crowd.
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
