Chapter 343: The Task of Finding Someone

The knock on the door happened to sound at this point in time, and it really can't be regarded as a coincidence, it is estimated that as long as the player finishes reading the two files, the third commission will automatically come to the door.

"Watson, go open the door"

"God Watson, have you ever seen a Watson like me as fat?"

"That'...... Peanut? ”

“……”

Tu Hongyu didn't bother to pay attention to him, knowing that reasoning with a sick middle school second is tantamount to playing the piano to a cow.

An Yizhi picked up a newspaper casually, sat behind the desk and pretended to be deep, because he had the impression that many detectives saw their clients like this, and they were not high enough without a newspaper pipe or something in their hands.

However, there was a new discovery in this arrest, he clearly remembered that there was no systematic translation in the newspaper when the room was searched before, but now the headline of the newspaper is familiar Chinese characters, which read: 'The police chief died mysteriously at home, suspected to be the work of the mafia'.

Does this have to do with the principal, or the third commission?

"Are you Detective Mr. Ann Yizhi?"

"No, he's in there, please come in"

Ann poked her eyes out from behind the newspaper and saw a woman dressed as a standard woman of that era entered, she was probably in her fifties, but she was well maintained, she looked to be in her forties, and wore a bowler hat with long white feathers.

"Is there anything you can do to help you? Madam"

"Yes, you can, Mr. Ann Yizhi"

Putting down the newspaper, Ann pointed to imitate the image of Sherlock Holmes in the old TV series that he had seen in his impression, and made a gesture to the old woman to ask for a seat.

"Watson, look at the tea"

Tu Hongyu rolled his eyes, you tell me where the tea leaves are first?

"It's rude, I have a not-so-smart assistant"

After he finished choreographing Tu Hongyu, he looked at Qingfeng Bazooka again:

"Erin, can you pour us some tea?"

Breeze Bazooka wanted to ask Erin what the hell she was, but she also knew that Ann was running the train with his mouth full of words, so she also rolled her eyes and ignored him.

"Don't bother, I guess your detective agency doesn't have tea"

The detective agency was so tattered that even the skin of the sofa where the guests sat was polished, and the old woman could even feel the springs popping out of the hidden part of the sofa.

It may be a little embarrassing to be the real owner of the detective agency, but An Yizhi is not the real master, indicating that there is no pressure, and besides, with his face, even if it really is, he will not feel ashamed at all......

"Ma'am, please tell me about your commission"

"Don't worry, I heard that Mr. An is the best detective in this area, I hope to take a test on the front line of your commission, I don't want to be wasted by mediocre people"

The old woman's words were almost like a provocation, how could there be such a client.

An stood up with a finger, casually threw the newspaper aside, turned his back to everyone and gently opened the blinds with his fingers to look outside, Tu Hongyu thought he was pretending.

After a while, he turned around and said:

"Sounds like you've had a lot of private investigators and they didn't live up to your expectations"

"Before I came to you, I looked for seven detectives, all of whom were well-known people, but unfortunately they couldn't fulfill my commission"

"We're sure it's fine, feel free if you want to test it out"

Although the old woman's tone was very unpleasant, An Yizhi didn't want to go to Arkham and Antarctica, it would be a cheat.

"My test is very simple, look at me, what can you see?"

"It's about commissioning?"

Tu Hongyu couldn't help but ask.

"Of course, I think a good detective can see what I mean"

"Okay, I'll try, ma'am"

An pointed around the desk and looked the old woman up and down, such a scrutinizing gaze would be extremely impolite in normal times.

"You've just recently divorced ......"

"Almost, but not divorced, my husband, he's dead"

"Oh, that's unfortunate"

"Can you tell me how you see that?"

"Absolutely"

Ann likes to play with these things:

"Your ring, ma'am, it's too big for you, like a cover-up. So I found a deep mark under the ring, and by the way, I also found that the part of the ring on your right ring finger is a little thinner than the other fingers, indicating that there was a ring there, and it was worn for a long time, and it was not taken off until recently. With the ring finger and the right hand, it's obvious that it's a wedding ring, and if it's been taken off recently, it means that you may be divorced...... I'm sorry ma'am, I am sorry to remind you of something sad and I deeply regret the death of your husband"

"Very well, what else can you see?"

"Hmmm......"

An Yizhi suddenly picked up the newspaper and slapped it on the table, making a snapping sound, and the other people looked at him in shock.

"You haven't been sleeping well lately, you're in a state of anxiety, and you're constantly woken up by nightmares"

"Do you see my dark circles?"

"No, your makeup skills are perfect, I can't see it. You may not know that humans react half a beat slower to fright in this near-trance, and I just tested it and it did."

After explaining what he had just done, An pointed and talked eloquently:

"With all due respect, how did your husband die?"

"Suicide, the doctor diagnosed him with a mental illness, probably because of this"

She was calm, as if she were talking about someone else's business.

"Your commission has a ...... with your husband"

An Yizhi looked at the old woman's expression and swallowed back the second half of the sentence:

"Well, it seems to be related to your children"

The only thing that can give the old woman nightmares is the children who are most likely to have nightmares, and if there is a supernatural element in this, then she should go to the wizard instead of the detective, feeling that something may be wrong with her children.

"It's my son, he's missing"

Really!

"So I passed your test?"

"That's right, Mr. Ahn. I think you can help me with this, but before I do that, I will only give you the details if you are sure that you want to take my commission."

"Why?"

Tu Hongyu has been a bit like a hundred thousand whys lately......

"I don't want some big-mouthed people to go around flaunting"

"Yes, I guess you can do it too"

As he spoke, An pointed to the words and said abruptly:

"That's how the police chief died."

The old woman glanced at Ann deeply, but did not answer, almost acquiescing.

Combined with the extra information in the newspaper, plus the fact that An Yiyi had just seen a row of cars parked downstairs through the blinds, he could conclude that the old woman was very powerful.

What the? Cars don't speak for themselves? If you see a large line of men in black standing guard next to the car, you don't think so, especially since their waists are still bulging, and eighty percent of them have hidden weapons.

Could this old woman be the legendary Italian mafia?

An Yizhi returned to the back of the desk and sat down, knocking on the table from time to time, the old woman's attitude was obviously a problem given by the system.

From the current information, it can be concluded that the old woman's commission is by no means easy to solve, haven't you heard her say that she has found seven detectives without success? It is estimated that the seven unlucky eggs have now gone to the Mediterranean to feed the fish.

However, compared to the two commissions of the talented Arkham and the Ancients, the Old Woman's commission should be the least dangerous of them, but he couldn't be sure, the above was just speculation. After all, An Yizhi only knew that this matter was related to the old woman's son, and the specific situation was black.

No wonder the narrator says, 'Remember, your choices will have unpredictable consequences', there are three main lines in this dungeon, and it's up to the player to choose which one to choose.

Although the degree of freedom is relatively high, it also creates problems for those who have difficulty in choosing.

Anyway, can you do that?

An Yizhi suddenly thought of a possibility.

It is undeniable that some players come to the dungeon to experience a different life, but most players enter the dungeon to find equipment and skills, and how to maximize the benefits will be the biggest problem for players.

Thinking along this line of thought, can the three options in front of you be answered at the same time?

Three commissions, three players, this must not be a coincidence. Completing the three main stories together will inevitably pay off handsomely, but the difficulty is ......

An Yizhi looked at Tu Hongyu and Qingfeng Bazooka with an expressionless face, these two are not very reliable, if Lin Linglin is here, An Yizhi can consider going in two lines, and now it is more appropriate to focus on one line.

The old woman was waiting for Ann's answer, but she didn't urge. However, she didn't know that An Yizhi's thoughts had already flown to 108,000 miles away, otherwise she would have smashed the cup and let a gang of mafias downstairs rush up, and since then there have been three more unlucky people in the Mediterranean......

"Please say, ma'am, I have decided to take your commission"

Although it is possible that the old woman's commission is more dangerous than the other two, it is possible after all.

What's more, An Yizhi also has a bold backhand, anyway, the old woman came up alone, and when she finished talking about the details, she really felt very troublesome and wanted to regret it, as long as she was tied up as a hostage. Ann pointed out that the little brothers who don't believe in the mafia will not care whether the boss lives or dies.

But this choice is truly 'unpredictable', and the devil knows what they will face, so it can only be regarded as a helpless decision.

"Wise choice, Mr. Ann"

The old woman smiled, and she took out a black and white photo from her women's bag, on which there was a very handsome Italian young man smiling at the camera and fighting with An Yizhi's Erha.

"This is my son, Mallory. Nelson. He is the one you are looking for."

Handing the photo to Tu Hongyu beside him, the old woman said:

"He disappeared a month ago, and lately I can often dream of him in the midst of a raging fire asking me for help, oh my poor little Mallory"

An Yizhi also looked at the photo, Mallory is about 18~20 years old, which is the period when the adventurous spirit is the strongest, that is, the period when he loves to die the most.

"Where was Mallory last seen?"

"At the docks, two of my men followed him onto the boat"

The old woman wiped away her tears and said:

"Did you know that there is a small island in the West called Chiza?"

An Yizhi nodded, in fact he knew a fart, he couldn't even remember the names of the islands near the Celestial Empire, let alone the Mediterranean.

"It's a small island with just over 300 inhabitants, and because that's where his father came from, I thought he wanted to see where his father lived when he was a kid, so I didn't pay much attention to it. But there has been no news for the past half a month, and when I sent someone to the island again, the bodies of two of my men were found on the passenger ship, and the forensic doctor said that they had been dead for more than half a month."

"That is, your son disappeared at that time?"

The old woman nodded:

"Then the people I sent began to look for his whereabouts, but when I asked the inhabitants of the island, they said that they did not see him."

"It's been a month......"

Tu Hongyu said hesitantly.

"Mallory is still alive, I know it's a little incredible, but I know as a mother that he must still be alive, just imprisoned somewhere on the island"

The task of finding someone sounds a lot easier than the other two.

Motioning for the old woman to continue, Ann Yizhi needed more clues.

But he didn't know what unspeakable things he was going to encounter on that island......
