Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 37 Exceeding the task
Xio was slightly taken aback, and had already made some guesses: "You mean, you mean Mr. A is extremely..."

She lowered her voice again: "A member of the Aurora Society?"

Hobert nodded: "That's right, I heard that the core members of the Aurora Society all use letters as their code names."

Xio smiled wryly, "I'm still planning to take Miss Audrey to the party initiated by Mr. A tomorrow."

"Then you can attend with confidence." Hobert said: "Fixed gatherings are their way of earning money and secretly preaching. Not only will they not mess around at the gathering, but they will also maintain the order of the gathering."

Xio breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

Hobert took out the mutated eyeball again: "This thing has a wide range of uses, but not many people use it, it's hard to say how much it can sell for, I estimate it is between 50 pounds and 100 pounds.

"I happen to know a vendor who sells extraordinary materials, I think he should be very interested in this item.

"Give me four or five days, and we'll split the bill after I get rid of them."

Xio nodded: "Okay."

While talking, she took out the 23 pounds 6 soli cash she found just now, and divided it into two equal parts, one for Hobert and one for her.

When they arrived at 109 Vasco Avenue, it was already dark, and a red moon was hanging in the sky, as if watching the actions of Hobert and Hugh.

The two waited until the carriage was far away, and when no one noticed them, they simply broke in, one with a gun and the other with a Mitsubishi stab, and searched the house briefly.

The house is divided into two floors, the first floor is the living room and kitchen, and the second floor has two bedrooms and a study.

Of course, Heyman was not found here. Since Zachary knew this place, Heyman couldn't hide here just to be on the safe side.

The two found a safe in the study on the second floor, and Hobert simply went to the basement to find tools to pry the safe open.

What is unexpected is that there are a lot of cash, jewelry, gold and other properties in the safe.

Hobert briefly estimated the value: "These properties together should be enough to compensate our client for the loss.

"In view of Heyman's crime of fraud, I suggest that it be enforced without notifying Heyman, divide the property equally, and we each compensate the client, and ask Miss 'Arbitrator' to arbitrate."

"My arbitration is: carry out your suggestion!" Xio couldn't tell if Hobert was joking, or he was really asking himself.She felt like an old and dazed judge now, who only knew how to agree with the lawyer's suggestion, without making her own judgment.

In the next stage of dividing up the spoils, Miss Xio was a little bit crazy again. It was okay to ask her to count the money, but it was driving her crazy to ask her to identify the value of the jewelry.

Fortunately, Hubert didn't intend to cheat her, the division was fair.

To be able to find so much property here is already overfulfilling the task.

Both of them were tired at this time, and they made an appointment to go to the second address they got from Zachary tomorrow.

But there shouldn't be much to gain there, Hobert analyzed: "This is the south area of ​​the bridge, and the security is relatively good, so Heyman will hide some property here.

"Gaspin Street is on the East End, and Hyman wouldn't be storing anything of value in a den of thieves if he had had brains."

Xio thought so too: "It just so happens that tomorrow we can 'visit' Duckholm."

The two of them had each found a small box to store their belongings, and Hobert said, "Miss Hugh, we are already on the same boat, and I must know your mailing address."

Hugh didn't hesitate at all, and left the mailing address to Hobert, after all, they already had enough trust.

The two found a rental carriage and left Vasque Avenue in different directions.

When Hobert returned home, he was extremely tired and hungry, and the dinner was already over. Fortunately, his adoptive mother, Mon Lisa, left a dinner for him in the kitchen.

After wolfing down his meal, Hobert returned to his room with the small suitcase and fell asleep.

……

Xio returned to the rental house with Fors: "I'm so hungry that I could eat a cow."

Fors was sitting in the easy chair and reading a magazine. Xio remembered that when she left in the morning, Fors was sitting in the easy chair, also reading a magazine, and her sitting posture was similar to the current one.

But seeing the dinner on the table, it meant that the whipping of hunger kept the lazy Fors from reclining in the easy chair all day, at least she had been to the kitchen and bathroom.

Fors put down the magazine in her hand, looked at Xio who was devouring the bread: "Why are you back so late today?"

It was already ten o'clock in the evening, if it was an ordinary girl, Forsi would have been worried by now.

But even the nimble Xio felt a little worried when Forsi came back so late, maybe some scoundrel who didn't have eyes would be repaired by Xio.

While Xio ate with big mouthfuls, he said vaguely, "I'll show you something good in a while!"

After a few minutes, she finally finished the bread in her hand and the soup on the table.

Xio burped contentedly, and opened the small box in his hand.

Forsi's eyes were immediately dazzled by the jewels and gold in the box: "God of steam and machinery! Hugh, you, did you rob a bank today?"

She hurriedly looked in the direction of the window. Fortunately, the curtains had already been drawn.

Hugh smiled proudly: "Following the clues given by my client, Mr. Esk, I found out who was behind the fraud case step by step, and got these property from him.

"It's a pity, a pity, I almost brought the scammer to justice."

Forsi looked at Xio darkly and strangely: "Did someone help to investigate step by step?"

Xio was taken aback: "You, how do you know?"

"Because your brain, which can only think with muscles, can't handle too complicated cases at all!"

Hugh smiled embarrassingly: "Okay, okay, I did cooperate with someone else today."

Then she began to talk about today's experience, and Forsi felt as if she was listening to a story: "You mean a lawyer can have psychics, and also knows some extraordinary knowledge that you can't figure out at all?"

"That's right, I think he must be an Extraordinary!" Xio said with certainty, "And he must be a member of a certain organization or a member of an Extraordinary family, otherwise he wouldn't be able to know so much about Extraordinary people!"

Fors nodded, agreeing to this guess, but then she became a little nervous: "You witnessed the whole process of his killing, in order to prevent you from reporting him, will he invite his family to kill you to silence you?"

"No way." Xio said, "I also did it at that time."

Forsi said: "Be careful." She looked at the small box in front of her: "After all, you have divided up so much money, even for the property in front of you, there is a reason to kill someone."

Xio didn't dare to be sure about this, so the two changed places overnight.
