Chapter 42 Two Documents
Lynch tilted his head and glanced at Officer Natalie. She looked at the serious man intently, but the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, obviously she was quite satisfied with scaring Lynch.
Lin Qi was indeed startled, but for another reason.
If anyone here says anything, I'm afraid half of the Rhine City will be affected. I'm just an ordinary private detective. Even if I make a small contribution, I won't attract the attention of so many big shots.
Luck falling from the sky may not always be a good thing. I'm afraid there is something wrong with it. I must be careful.
Thinking this in my heart, I still looked nervous on the surface, lowered my head and followed behind Mr. V, carefully walking up to the podium.
"Are you Lynch? I heard that you graduated from secondary education majoring in archeology and natural history. I thought you would be older, but you are actually so young. You must be less than twenty years old this year." V whispered a few words in his ear, and the old man looked at Lynch in surprise, "Your Excellency Victor introduced me to your achievements last night. It was really amazing. I think I must invite you to come over and let me I would like to thank you personally for your contribution to Rhine City.”
Lynch actually feels guilty now.
Being stared at by so many pairs of eyes, and there were several big shots in front of him, it felt as painful as being tortured. However, as he became more competitive, he tried his best to stay calm, took off his hat and faced the three of them. The big man bowed and saluted, and in the process he took a deep look at Laurent, who was wearing a wig.
He had not forgotten that both the mayor and the speaker had been mentioned by Spider-Man Jeremy, but in order to avoid alerting the enemy, he still pretended to be unaware and focused his attention on Duke Wayne.
“The young man performed very well last night, with wisdom and courage. He is a role model for the youth of the kingdom. However, you should pay more attention to safety next time. I heard that if there is not a super strong person who attracted A ray of moonlight will put you in danger."
Huh? Why is he bringing up these irrelevant topics at this time? Fortunately, I asked just now, otherwise I wouldn't know what he was talking about.
Lin Qi was a little confused, but he still pretended to be stupid and said: "Is that moonlight caused by a super strong person? I don't even know."
"Oh, maybe it is, we are not sure either, everyone They are all guessing that there is such a person, otherwise many things cannot be explained." Duke Wen smiled noncommittally, "You are the one who has the closest contact, why don't you also tell me your own opinion, what do you think about this super strong man? Does it exist? If so, what is his purpose? "
Lynch became even more confused when he heard it, and he didn't understand Duke Wayne's intention at all. He was just about to say a few words to the Duke, when something suddenly happened in his mind. Realized.
He didn't think that the so-called super strong man was helping me last night, was he testing me?
No wonder, this can explain today's pomp, it looks like a company boss suspects that an employee has a background.
It’s just to sell favors, give more benefits, and be more inclined.
What should I do?
Lin Qi made quick calculations in his mind.
The explanation may not be clear. As long as the other party has this idea, the explanation will only become darker and darker.
Besides, why should I explain?
The benefits that are delivered to your door will be punished by God if you push them out.
Since you like brain-feeding so much, let’s make brain-feeding fun for you.
Having made up his mind, Lin Qi smiled and shook his head: "I'm not sure about that. I'm just an ordinary private detective. The world of legendary strong men is too far away from me. I don't understand. I think Maybe it doesn't exist. Even if it does exist, I don't think she has any purpose. It's just an accident. Just imagine it as a lady, hahaha." Lynch smiled awkwardly, "Anyway, these things have nothing to do with me, I am just a poor private detective."
"Hahaha, I understand."
Although Lynch didn't know what he understood, Duke Wen was obviously very happy and said with a smile:
"What did you do last night? The kingdom has taken such a big risk for Rhine, and the kingdom will never ignore your achievements. Aren't you a private detective, and you are also a private detective in your mysterious world. So, from today on, you will be the long-term special consultant of the Governor's Palace. The monthly salary is three pounds, and someone will send it to your office at the end of the month. "As a consultant, you don't need to do anything extra. The only requirement is that in the future, any difficult and mysterious cases encountered by the Governor's Palace will be forwarded to you through the watcher. You, the commission fee is settled normally. You must give priority to the commission from the Governor's Palace, which is considered the consultant's responsibility, otherwise the consultant's contract will be automatically terminated."
"In addition, Victor has selected two special documents for you from the collection of our Venn family. It is said that they are what you need urgently at this stage. I will ask someone to give you the consulting contract tonight, Let's send them to the Watcher's Club together and let him handle it."
Is there such a good thing? Sure enough, there are additional benefits.
Lin Qi licked his lips, feeling a little hopeful.
With three pounds a month, you basically don’t have to worry about rent and food. It’s not too little, and you don’t have to do anything. It’s just used to maintain relationships. If there are any entrusted commissions, it will be calculated separately, which is equivalent to free income.
And these are only tacks on at most, the Duke’s behavior itself is the most important reward. With the Duke setting an example, if the senior officials present need to deal with mysterious incidents in the future, even if they want to give the Duke face, they will give priority to Lynch. This is a very precious intangible asset. No wonder
But what Lynch is really looking forward to are those two special documents. You can guess that these things are probably mysterious documents that can allow him to understand his abilities. This is what he needs most now, and the market price is quite expensive, ranging from more than ten pounds to dozens of pounds. Now Lynch can't afford one even if he loses all his money.
As expected, as Natalie said, the money was not much, but it was a real bumper harvest, which made Lynch feel a little embarrassed for a while.
"Hahaha, young man, you helped the Rhine City Government resolve a public opinion storm. If we treat you badly, no one will be willing to serve the kingdom and Rhine in the future. You can accept the reward with peace of mind. From now on, Rhine There are still many things in the city that need the services of capable young people like you.”
It makes sense that if you work hard, you will get something.
Lynch quickly calmed down and stopped refusing. He thanked Duke Wayne, said hello to Mr. V, and hurriedly left the council chamber accompanied by Officer Natalie.
Really not used to the atmosphere inside, it was not until he left the door of the city hall that Lin Qi took a long breath, stretched hard, and turned back to smile at the police officer.
"Thank you. As soon as I heard it, I knew that you helped me get it. No one but you knows what I am in urgent need of now."
"I just told Victor your needs. He chose it for you. You want to say thank you and go to him." The police officer smiled and rolled her eyes at Lynch. "Today's mission is over. Now you can get the documents in the evening. Well, as we said yesterday, go to the Investigator News Agency? I doubt anyone will be working there today after the torture last night."
"Yes, we reporters don't care about staying up late." Before the police officer finished speaking, someone from the reporters waiting at the door of the city hall responded, "We just came out of the newspaper office, everything is normal."
"Are you from the Investigator? There happened to be something." Lynch and Natalie looked at each other and secretly said that they were a bit stupid. The Investigator is a big newspaper. With so many reporters squatting here, it is impossible not to have their people. , "There is a reporter named Donny Nutton, do you know which newspaper he is from?"
"Do you know him?" Several reporters whispered, "He is from our newspaper, but he is no longer Missing for five days"
"Also missing is his partner, Maya Sess."
Sure enough, I guessed it right, it really does matter.
Lin Qi felt a little cold. He looked at Officer Natalie and squinted his eyes in thought.
After thinking for a moment, Lynch deliberately asked nonchalantly: "Can't find them yet? That's not good. Then you know that there were some incidents about the Best Tunnel some time ago. Who was responsible for the interview? ”
"What a coincidence, it seems to be them too. But we're not sure, you'd better go to the newspaper office and ask."
Lynch and Natalie looked at each other, feeling that there was an invisible thread connecting these Things are all connected.
The two wanted to ask more questions, but several well-dressed gentlemen walked out of the city hall. A group of squatting reporters immediately surrounded them and left them aside.
