Chapter 101 Baron and Captain

Shade and Lavender Baron meet in the detective office's study, Shade handed the cards to Baron, and the middle age person with the pretty mustache almost took it with a trembling:

"You're finally back in my hand."

Baron probably Just the kind of veteran Rhodes fanatic.

But due to the request of the other side of the Lakeview Manor game, namely Baron of Rwanda, this card cannot be held by Lavender Baron for the sake of face. So he tested Shade's meaning and determined that the "upright and kind" detective had no intention of possessing this card at all, and signed a detective commission agreement with Shade.

The term of the agreement is half a year. During this half year, detective Shade Hamilton is responsible for keeping [Ancient Fairy Tale Match Girl], and can use it freely without loan, rental, damage or loss. During the agreement, once Lavender Baron requested, the detective must temporarily hand over the cards to him for use, and promised to sell the cards to Lavender Baron for £5 after half a year.

And the commission fee for this agreement is 5 pounds, which means that Shade can get a generous reward of 10 pounds from this matter.

Although the real price of the card is more than 50 pounds, winning the bet at Lakeview Manor is Shade's promise, so the ownership of this card should belong to Sir Lavender. As a result, after half a year, it will be sold at an extremely cheap price instead of the real price of the card. Lavender Baron has explained this many times, for fear that Shade will go back on it.

In short, when Baron paid the commission fee at one time, and happily came to the first floor with Shade, after shaking hands with him and leaving, Shade stood in front of the open door, looking at the Saint Derain square. The group of pigeons stopped thinking:

"So not only did I get the temporary right to use the Lord's card, but also I could get 10 pounds of income. I don't count Lavender Baron, but this is him. I didn't do anything at all. It seems that it would be nice to have a few noble friends, and the Rhodes card is really a good way to make friends. Let's go back and keep an account."

Bending down, he will stick a stick at the door. one's head around to look for, hugs the orange cat who is both afraid and curious about the world outside the house. After getting up, I happened to see the middle-aged officer, Captain Laddes, with his head lowered, walking along the Plaza Ring Street, passing by the carriage of Lavender Baron.

He wrapped himself in a black overcoat with a large brown leather belt looped around the hem of the overcoat, and the second button of the overcoat hung on a thread and swung around his chest:
"Hello, detective, are you waiting for me on purpose?"

Even though it was morning, he still felt as though he had not woken up. The Captain didn't look like he was in a good situation, the expression on his face was the exact opposite of that of Lavender Baron, who had come here happily.

But at least the beard and hair on his face are well groomed, and the clothes are still neat, which shows that this middle-aged officer who suffered reputation loss because of the relic [Gun of Kindness] has not lost confidence in life. .

".Yes, Captain, please come in."

The captain came here simply to apologize, but not to ask for the antique pistol. He is very sorry for what happened at Lakeview Manor and claims compensation to Shade for the black suit.

But this decadent middle age person looks poorer than Shade, and his mental state is not good, so Shade, who has benefited from the gun of kindness, did not ask for compensation, but kindly gave it His business card for Schneider's Psychological Clinic, and introducing him to Augustus Priest of the Church of Dawn:

"Both of these are friends I met at the commission, and you might be able to talk to them. "

Shade said very kindly, and suddenly realized that the two professions of psychiatrist and priest are such a match for detectives.

At the same time, he was also very curious about the way Captain Rades bought the relic [The Spear of Kindness], and wanted to use it to see if there was any secret behind it.

But the captain told Shade very sorry that he had won it by playing Rhodes from the drunkards in the tavern on the front line of the windy path in the south when he was drunk a few years ago.

Because I didn't want others to know that he still gambles, I told my friends that this was a bought antique. But after the indignity of Lakeview Manor, the captain no longer wanted to hold the pistol:

"To be honest, after it left me, I even slept sweetly, as if suddenly The burden has been lifted. Detective, leave this gun with you, and do whatever you want with it."

The middle-aged man said this, but Shade knew that this was the relic that the ordinary person had received for a long time. 】The feeling after the power influence.

He consoled the captain a few words and encouraged him to live a good life. Captain Ladders probably hadn't heard such a word in a long time, and his affection for Shade doubled, and he thought of one more thing:

"However, I won it from that poor guy back then. Not only the revolver, but also a small accessory I remember."

Shade raised his eyebrows, speculating on the probability that the accessory was also a relic:
"What is it? You can let me See? It's a very nice gun, and I think that trinket might be a valuable thing, and I'd like to buy it."

Just got £5 from Lavender Baron, seems to have found it Useful.

The captain thought for a while, then touched his hair with a generous palm, his tone uncertain:

"You know, I've just been released from Carson Rick as a When the captive returned to the city, looking for a rental apartment, a lot of his old belongings were lost. I didn't care much about that before, after all, only girls. Cough cough, after all, only girls like to bring trinkets. Now it may be It's in my rental apartment, but I'm looking for it."

"It's alright, mind if I go with you? It happens to be fine in the morning."

Shade asked, and the captain readily agreed .

Captain Radees has just returned from Carson Rick as a prisoner and has been in a bad situation recently. Even with the help of friends from the past, the current economic situation is not very good.

He now rents in Pigtail Lane in the Northern Part of City, which is not a slum, but can be regarded as the lower part of Tobesque. It was a long way from St. Derain's Square in the city center, but neither Shade nor the captain mentioned the carriage.

The two men, who had nothing to do, walked together in Tobesque. In fact, they have a lot of common topics to talk about, because the captain is a person who doesn't have much thought.

Shade can get a lot of military news from the captain just by mentioning something about the southern front. Captain Radees is really a brave and loyal officer. If it weren't for that good gun, he might have successfully shot himself. So from this aspect, the gun should actually save the captain.
