Chapter 104: Inheritance Dispute
Ron Avenue?
After hearing the name that he happened to have visited yesterday, Ronald bid farewell to the detective apprentice and set off immediately.
Considering the time problem, he even took off his hat and opened his coat, pretending to be an ordinary pedestrian and hailed a taxi on the side of the road.
The speed of riding in a carriage is much faster than simply walking on two legs.
It didn't take long for Ronald to arrive at No. 51 Ron Avenue.
After handing the fare to the driver, Ronald pulled his collar and took a brief look around.
It's only a short distance away from yesterday's leather shop.
But the amazing thing is that after walking along this road of no more than 200 meters, the environment of the surrounding streets has changed very obviously.
The number of workers walking on the road has been greatly reduced, and even the hygienic conditions on the road have changed significantly. Clean streets, quiet environment, and fewer passers-by.
There are about a dozen households in the area, which forms a very sharp contrast with other locations on Ron Avenue. Obviously, the other locations are almost all areas where private traders or workers work, but this place is completely different.
Looking at this special residential gathering place located in a working neighborhood, Ronald sighed silently.
Living in a place like this, it's no wonder there are inheritance disputes.
Without much hesitation, Ronald took out his folded hat and put it on, then stepped forward and knocked on the door.
Bang bang bang——
"Is anyone there?"
After a few seconds, he heard footsteps approaching the door from the house.
With a click, a small window embedded in the door opened from the inside.
There is no invention similar to door mirrors in this world, so the function of this thing is to help people inside the house observe the outside world safely.
At this moment, a pair of somewhat cloudy eyes were looking at Ronald outside through this opening.
After staring for a few seconds, the other party asked:
"Sir, who are you?"
Ronald nodded, took two steps back to let the other party see his whole face, and then said:
"Hello."
" I'm here to see Mr. Swift. He has something urgent at home that needs to be notified."
"."
"Wait a moment, I'll call him."
After thinking for a few seconds, the other party simply replied to Ronald and then closed the small window. , and then disappeared behind the gate.
This time, after waiting for about two minutes, Ronald heard the sound of someone walking towards the door again.
This time, it was still the 'click' sound of pulling up the small window that sounded first.
But as the window opened, the person who appeared inside was Swift.
Through the small window, he saw Ronald in a coat and wide hat, who was obviously dressed as an investigator. The detective raised his eyebrows in surprise:
"Ronald?"
"Why are you here?"
Also because of the detective Due to the sensitive nature of the work, Swift guessed that something special had happened, and before Ronald could answer his question, he opened the door first.
"Come on, let's come in and talk."
Ronald stepped into the house in two steps, and then looked around.
Except for the old man who accompanied the detective to the door, there were no other superfluous guys nearby.
Immediately, he stepped forward and whispered to Swift:
"Time is very tight, you'd better leave quickly." "
This morning, cult warlocks launched a surprise attack on the headquarters building of the Bureau of Investigation. The scene is now in chaos. The Bureau needs Use your identity to make some cover, and help check the situation at the same time."
"Huh?"
Mr. Detective exclaimed in a low voice in confusion.
Hearing what Ronald whispered about the situation, he thought for a moment that he had misheard.
Does anyone dare to attack the investigation bureau?
Ever since he worked in Burrenwich
, or rather since Swift was born in this world, the Burrenwich Bureau has never had anything like this happen.
As a violent law enforcement agency on the mysterious side of Greed, the Bureau's reputation has always been like the sword of Damocles hanging over the heads of people on the mysterious side.
The Investigation Bureau has always been avoided by others, how could anyone dare to attack such an institution!
But seeing Ronald's serious expression and his exclusive investigator attire, Swift had no choice but to believe him.
After thinking for a few seconds, his eyes quickly glanced at the old man beside him.
After confirming that the other party was not eavesdropping, he asked Ronald in the same low voice:
"What is the specific situation? Can you tell me now?"
Ronald immediately responded:
"We will discuss the specific situation on the road. Anyway, at the gate of the Investigation Bureau The spell to expel idlers has completely failed, and even repairs are impossible."
"."
"That's really bad enough."
Swift could almost imagine the exaggerated scene.
It can make the magic at the gate of the Investigation Bureau so ineffective that it cannot be repaired, and the situation on the scene will probably be extremely bad.
At the same time, considering the location of the Bureau of Investigation on Long Beach Street,
this is a real disaster from every aspect!
Turning to look at the old man who was watching them, Swift immediately said:
"Mr. Jin, this friend and I have something urgent to deal with."
"Please help inform Mrs. Keyes, I will..."
"Swift Sir!" After hearing the words from the detective, the old man changed his previous silence and said in a very urgent tone, "Madam, she invited you here to perfectly handle this inheritance dispute." "Forgive me for guessing.
"
"You're not going to run away from the battle, are you?"
"Oh?"
Upon hearing this question, Swift raised his eyebrows unkindly.
He didn't explain any more, but directly invited Ronald beside him:
"Ronald, do you mind watching a good show before setting off?"
"It'll only take a few minutes."
Ronald Nodding and saying:
"Of course, no problem."
Seeing Ronald agree, Swift had no intention of continuing to talk to the old man beside him, turned around and led the way to the house.
Following Mr. Detective into the house, Ronald saw a complicated scene in the hall.
There were six people waiting around the table in the hall.
Among them were men and women, old and young.
Judging from their black and white attire, it was obvious that an important member of the family had died recently.
In addition, there were two people in formal clothes standing aside.
After all, there is a problem with the distribution of the inheritance, which should be the responsibility of a notary.
When she saw Swift leading Ronald into the room, the woman sitting in the chair immediately said,
"Mr. Swift, are you done with your business?"
"Ms. Case." The detective nodded politely first. Swift nodded, and then said, "Today, I have something extremely urgent to deal with."
"Can you allow me to postpone it a little bit?"
In the words, Swift emphasized the tone of 'urgent', and at the same time He also requested the other party with very sincere eyes.
However, after hearing the detective's words, someone on the side immediately shouted dissatisfied:
"Mr. Swift!"
"We invited you here to solve the problem as soon as possible and not to make everyone unhappy!" "
."
Swift He looked at the other party with extremely cold eyes.
Immediately, he looked at the woman on the throne again:
"Madam, what do you think?"
"."
After pondering for a moment, although the woman's eyes were a little tangled, she finally spoke:
"Mr. Swift, please help us first. Let’s solve the problem.”
