While the detective and his assistant were chatting about tax rates, Hugo suddenly changed the topic——
"When I was not a detective, I once imagined what the detective agency I would open in the future would look like."
The topic that the detective brought up for some reason seemed to be very interesting, which fully aroused Bilan's curiosity. The girl followed the topic with interest and asked: "Hugo, what was your dream workplace like at that time?"
“In my imagination at the time, it was probably a cramped apartment in an office building. The office sign at the door was crookedly written, various documents were piled up in a mess in the room, and the living room was haphazardly placed with everything from The trophies seized in various cases, every client who comes to the door will regret that they went to the wrong place when they see this picture." The detective answered without hesitation.
"Wow -" Bi Lan looked around in wonder at the bright and clean interior of Yu Qi's residence, and then remembered the spacious courtyard that would shock her every time she went out. She exhaled, "That's really the same as now. The environment is completely different.”
"Among all kinds of imaginations, the one I insist on the most is that we must install a wooden door without a doorbell for the detective office." Hugo suddenly said.
"Why?" Bilan tilted her head, her shawl chestnut hair swaying in the sunshine, full of the vitality of a young girl.
"Because if I use a wooden door without a doorbell, I can guess the visitor's identity, occupation, and mood when he comes to the door through the frequency and strength of the knock before he comes in. In addition to this reason, I also think The sound of the wooden door being knocked is very nice.”
"That really feels like a detective." Bilan nodded in agreement. "This way you can tell the general situation like a prophet before the visitor explains his intention. What a cunning and effective trick. Speaking of which, the last time Douzi and I came in together, you inferred it from Douzi ringing the doorbell twice. She was in a very happy mood, and then deduced the final outcome of the battle between us and that Sandstorm combination."
"Yeah, it's a pity that the plan can't keep up with the changes. The current facilities and conditions can only allow me to make such unshocking inferences, which completely cannot reflect the effect of the program."
Hugo sighed regretfully and pointed out the window with an expression that could easily be envied.
"Who would have thought that my detective agency would be equipped with such a row of huge floor-to-ceiling windows and such a vast outdoor courtyard in one step? In this way, wouldn't it be clear at a glance who is visiting from outside?"
Not to mention, looking out of the floor-to-ceiling windows, I could really see two sneaky guys studying something outside the courtyard of Yuqi Residence.
Seeing the figures outside, Bilan finally understood why the detective changed the topic.
"As you can see, they are two policemen wearing beige uniforms of the Feiyun City Police Department. The one with short blue hair is an old acquaintance of mine. She is our Miss Junsha from Feiyun City. She used to work in the Public Security Department. , was recently transferred to the criminal department because she solved a major case. The female police officer next to her who seemed a bit obsequious was probably her new partner. I didn’t know her, so I could only wait for her to enter the room before introducing myself. "
Facing the talkative Detective Hugo, Bilan couldn't help but ask: "When you see someone standing outside the door, shouldn't you take the initiative to open the door?"
The detective didn't care and waved his hand as if to ward off mosquitoes: "There is a doorbell at the door of Yuqi Mansion, but they haven't pressed it yet. This of course means that the two ladies don't plan to come in yet. Maybe Miss Junsha is with me at this time. Just like that, I’m introducing my old friends to new people.”
The assistant nodded with some conviction, but when he looked back he felt something was wrong: "The police station is a long way from Yu Qidi, right? If they wanted to introduce you, they should have done it on the way, right?"
As luck would have it, at the same time, Hugo's landline phone placed on his desk rang violently, and the detective picked up the phone: "Hello, this is Hugo Detective Agency."
There was a roar from the other end of the phone, and even though they were some distance away, Bilan was startled——
"Hugo! The doorbell of your scary big shabby mansion is broken! I've been waiting in front of your house for a long time, come out and open the door!"
.
The detective welcomed the police officer through the door angrily, and the female police officer who looked like a deputy followed Junsha into Yu Qi's residence.
"Junsha, this is a newly recruited employee of our firm. She heard about my detective deeds in the Kanto area, so she came here to apprentice with me. Her name is Bilan. Bilan, this is the one I often mention to you. Super police detective, Miss Junsha from Feiyun City, the thunder zebra she trained is very bad for riding."
Hugo kept talking nonsense without changing his face or heart.
"Don't listen to this guy's nonsense!" Junsha and Bilan said in unison, glaring at the detective. After noticing each other's reaction, the two looked at each other and smiled, as if they had established some kind of tacit understanding when they first met.
The police officer said angrily: "I'm not a super detective. All the work in the criminal department is very troublesome. Hugo, this is Serra, the deputy assigned to me by the bureau."
The partner next to Junsha has long black hair and square glasses. She always lowers her head and looks at the notebook in her hand. It's really surprising that the police station assigned Junsha such a quiet girl as his deputy.
"First time meeting, Miss Serra, I am the detective Hugo here." Hugo introduced himself very simply, and then he explained to Bilan, "The criminal police often need to face the scene of the crime, so when handling the case At least two people must act together, so a detective and a lieutenant are a common mode of action in police cases."
"Mr. Hugo, Miss Blue, hello, I'm Sierra." The black-haired female police officer greeted the two detectives politely, and then took a step back shyly, hiding like a small animal afraid of life. Return behind Junsha.
"This is the first time you two meet. I am the detective assistant Bilan." Bilan imitated the detective and said her name, and then asked impatiently, "Since Miss Junsha and Miss Sera are visiting as a pair, they must be tracking down something. Case, right?"
"It's not just a certain case, they have just been to the scene of a murder." Hugo pointed to the pocket on Junsha's waist and said to the point.
"Ms. Junsha's pocket contains rubber gloves stuffed into a ball. To the police, this is something that is only needed when entering a crime scene. In addition, it can also be seen from the uneven hair on your temples. Come on, you guys not long ago wore protective hats to prevent hair loss from damaging the scene."
The assistant lady observed the detective's serious expression and felt that Hugo was a little more aggressive now than usual. Was he angry because the doorbell was broken and his reasoning was wrong?
"Yes, yes, there is such a murder case." Junsha looked unsurprised, and was not in a hurry to explain the case. She found a sofa and sat down comfortably. The deputy lady quickly sat down on Junsha's side. Next to the location.
Seeing everyone sitting down, Hugo made a strange move. He raised his hands above his head and clapped loudly.
Then, there was a sound of running in Yuqi's residence. Soon after, the Grass Turtle, Little Flame Monkey, Bogaman and Little Eevee ran out happily with a tea cup filled with water.
Junsha took the tea cup from the grass knot of the Turtle, blew the hot air, and asked Bilan: "Did you train these Pokémon? They are all Pokémon that are rarely seen in the Hezhong area. ah."
But the assistant at Yu Qudi shook her head: "No, only Eevee is mine, the other children are all Hugo's Pokémon."
"ha?"
Stunned, the teacup slipped from Miss Junsha's hand, and was caught by a grass turtle with a rope at the last moment. The female police officer looked as if she saw the sun rising from the west, and stared blankly at the people in front of her. The tea elves gradually turned their attention to the detective——
"You are not the Hugo I know. Who are you?"
