Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 133 Melissa and Elizabeth Enter
Ulysses immediately opened the handwritten letter, which seemed to be very short, and he put it away after a brief glance.

It can be seen that Ulysses is not a very talkative person: "Is this your first time in Tingen?"

"Yes." Hobert smiled. "The scenery here is much more beautiful than that in Backlund, but then again, because of the fog in Backlund, you can't see the scenery of that city at all."

"At least it's very busy." Ulysses ignored Hobert's joke: "Sir Christine's telegram said that you are on a business trip for the law firm?"

"Yes, to deal with a commercial dispute case, I will defend the defendant."

"The defendant is not Dominic, is it?"

Hobert was taken aback: "How did you guess that?"

Ulysses said sullenly, "Dominique is my brother-in-law, and I heard him talk about it."

Hobert smiled and said, "Such a coincidence?"

Ulysses spread his hands: "The circle in Tingen City is not big."

He said: "I will ask the housekeeper to arrange a carriage for you. During your stay in Tingen City, you can listen to your orders at any time. If you need me to come forward, just ask."

"thanks for your help."

Ulysses arranged for Hobert to live in a villa in the suburbs. After sending Hobert to the villa, he asked the butler to arrange guest rooms and carriages, and then left the villa.

During the conversation with the housekeeper, Hobert learned that this villa is one of Ulysses' many properties, and usually when Ulysses' good friends or comrades-in-arms come to Tingen, they will be arranged here.

Hobert thought to himself, does this look like a senior military officer!

Thinking back to Christine, although his villa in the center of Backlund was enough to buy several villas in Tingen City, but there was only one property, compared to his original subordinate Ulysses, It all looks a bit shabby.

It occurred to Hobert that, of course, there might be other properties that he didn't know about.

When I came to the room prepared for Hobert, it was indeed much more comfortable than in the hotel. The decoration was not so luxurious, it was very elegant, and the furniture was more elegant.

After taking a short rest, Hobert saw that it was getting late, so he planned to visit Mr. Dominic again tomorrow.

Ulysses did not come to entertain Hobert because he was busy with official business, and Hobert was the only one eating in the huge restaurant, and he was not quite used to the sudden extravagant life.

After dinner, Hobert took a walk in the garden. He looked at the night sky and wondered what Mr. Ke, who belonged to the same city, was doing now.
……

At this time, Klein had just finished dinner, sat on the single sofa in the living room, picked up the "Ahowa Evening News" that had just been delivered, and read it leisurely.

Benson was reading a grammar book with a bitter face.

Melissa is also busy. There are textbooks and stationery in front of her, as well as compasses and rulers, as if she is doing homework.

Suddenly, the gas lamps in the living room and dining room suddenly dimmed, and the three brothers and sisters looked at the lamps at the same time, trying to find the reason.

At this moment, Klein felt something touch his arm, and there was no one else around him. This light touch made his hairs explode.

He opened his Spirit Vision, and immediately saw a small pale hand beside him, holding a neatly folded piece of paper.

is the messenger.

Klein heaved a sigh of relief, held the letter paper under the cover of the newspaper, and the messenger left immediately.

"Strange..." Melissa mumbled in front of the gas lamp, and after checking for a long time, she still didn't find any problems.

Klein shook his head and laughed: Why are the girls in our family responsible for this kind of thing, while the man is watching from the side.

After the gas lights came back to normal, everyone started to go about their business again.

Under the cover of the newspaper, Klein opened the letter. It was indeed a reply from Ms. Daly. In the letter, she described in detail the knowledge and precautions related to spiritism.

This knowledge benefited Klein a lot.

At the end of the letter, Daly wrote: If you encounter things that are difficult to understand or solve recently, don't hesitate!Immediately send a telegram to Backlund for help!

Klein smiled wryly: Ma'am, did you get any news?Don't be so scary, okay?

……

Early the next morning, Hobert came to Dominic's company in the two-wheeled carriage provided for him, and discussed the case with Dominic in detail.

He plans to contact Mr. Ke or Captain Dunn after a day or two, and try to be as natural as possible when contacting him. As for why he should be more natural, he can't think of it for a while. In short, in his plan, this The first contact must be natural.

The case of Mr. Dominique is not complicated. In the first half of this year, under the initiative of Mr. Dominique, he invested in a batch of futures with another rich man, Mr. Crowder.

However, when this batch of goods passed through the violent sea, it was unknown whether they were robbed by pirates or suffered shipwreck.

In short, this investment failed. For Dominique, this is only one of his several investments, and the losses suffered are acceptable to him.

However, Mr. Claude is facing a financial crisis recently, and this investment is very important to him.

After the investment failed, Mr. Crowder hoped that Dominic, the proponent of the investment, would pay him a sum of compensation.He believes that this investment is far more risky than what Dominic described, and Dominic is a fraud!
Of course Dominic will not pay compensation. He thinks that Claude is short of money now, so he wants to blackmail.

So after the two parties failed to reach a satisfactory solution after several times of communication, Mr. Claude took Dominic to court.

The lawyer Dominick often worked with suddenly fell ill and was hospitalized. It was only after a friend introduced him that he found Barton Barton.

Dominique didn't expect Barton Barton to send only one assistant to solve the case, but after a few chats, he found that the young man in front of him had a clear mind and high professionalism, so he signed the entrustment with confidence. protocol.

Then Hobert went to visit the plaintiff's lawyer. The plaintiff's lawyer was very polite. He also knew that Crowder was unlikely to win the case. However, in order to fight for the interests of his client, he still hoped that Mr. Dominic should pay a certain amount of compensation to Quiet this thing.

The two talked for a long time, but did not make much progress.

In the afternoon Hobert called on Mr. Claude again.

Claude is in his forties, his company is deserted, and there seems to be only one secretary working in the huge office building.

"It's too late," Claude, whose eyes were bloodshot and smoking a cigarette, sneered, "It's too late, Dominic will pay for everything he has done!"

In the end the conversation broke up badly.

Hobert sorted out the information, and when he returned to Dominic's place, it was already around five o'clock in the afternoon.

The two of them just sat down on the sofa when a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl opened the door. She was wearing a blue lace dress, her long brown hair was naturally curly, and her face was a little cute with baby fat.

After seeing Hobert, she apologized a little: "Sorry Dad, I didn't know you had guests."

Dominic stood up and introduced, "This is Mr. Hobert, a young and promising lawyer from Backlund, and this is my daughter Elizabeth."

Hobert glanced at the baby fat on the girl's face, it should be Melissa's friend Elizabeth, yes, the world is so small?
