The famous detective in the comic world

Chapter 209 What kind of experience is it like not to have a case?

"Good guy...A half-sibling?" He Nan broke into a cold sweat: "That's really..."

"But it's quite possible, isn't it?"

"Impossible!" He Nan denied: "Absolutely impossible! Don't talk nonsense? Don't even think in that direction - we don't look alike at all, we don't look alike at all!"

"What if the genetics are more biased toward father?"

"Impossible!" He Nan stopped the discussion on this topic: "Can we stop talking about this?"

As a result, Shirley brought up this topic several times along the way, and every time he mentioned it, He Nan felt very tired.

He knew it was impossible.

But if you want to seriously discuss this kind of issue, it is a very tragic thing in itself.

Just like that, they went home, and after taking a shower, Shirley started massaging him again.

The burning sensation of safflower oil this time was stronger than last time for some reason.

Shirley thought this meant that the wound was getting better, and He Nan thought it made sense.

On the way, the two also answered a customer's consultation call.

He said he suspected that his nanny had abused his four-year-old child.But seeing that there are no injuries on the child's body, what should I do if I ask the child but can't find anything.

For this kind of thing, He Nan could only ask him why he suspected that the nanny was abusing the child.

The answer I got was that the child was usually in good spirits, but once he was alone with the nanny, he would be out of spirit when he came back.Moreover, the child has recently begun to be inexplicably afraid of the nanny and unwilling to get close to her.

After hearing this, He Nan felt that there might be something wrong, but maybe it was just the nanny's behavior that made the child feel uneasy.

Therefore, he suggested that the consultant have a good chat with the child alone to see if the nanny abused him or threatened him. Children at this age have poor language skills and are easily intimidated by the nanny. You have to tell him this is your home and the nanny has no right to do anything to you.

Of course, it's also possible that the nanny didn't do anything, it's just that he was paranoid.

He Nan further suggested that if you still have doubts after talking with your child alone, it is necessary to install a camera.

Buy a pinhole camera that is not easy to detect, and place it in a hidden corner.Just take a look at how your nanny behaves when you're away from home.

After listening, the consultant expressed his thanks and hung up the phone.

He Nan looked at the phone screen and sighed deeply.

"Hey..." He Nan frowned: "This kind of phone call is the most annoying, because I really don't see where a detective needs to come in, it's just a simple problem that a camera can solve. I can only suggest this to him. I am ashamed to charge...otherwise such a simple answer will have to be paid by others, and it will affect the reputation at that time."

"Yeah...it's very troublesome." Shirley pressed his back for him, and said softly: "There is no way. There are often people like this... probably think that detectives are omnipotent."

"Speaking of omnipotence... Tsk." He Nan said this, and remembered the outrageous commissions he had received: "Someone really treats us as handymen."

"You mean the time you helped someone move?"

"...Yes." He Nan felt tired when he thought about it: "But the money given is not bad anyway."

At that time, an employer came to ask them to help them move.

Originally, they didn't want to accept such absurd commission that had nothing to do with the detective, but the money he gave was too much, so the two immediately agreed to do it.

Help her move the furniture from the twelfth floor to the first floor, and give her a one-time payment of one thousand dollars after all the moving.

Although the two of them were so tired that they almost fell apart afterwards, and they came back with each other's support, but it was still good enough to get the money.

If it's this kind of entrustment with money, He Nan doesn't mind coming here occasionally.

...If you always come here, I'm afraid you will die of exhaustion.

He Nan still doesn't understand why she came to ask them for help.

Probably because the two detectives felt idle at home every day and wanted to give them some work to make money——He Nan thought so with good intentions.

...Malicious speculation, because she thinks that she wants to see Shirley and the two make a fool of themselves.

"I remembered the call you received in the underground fighting arena." He Nan thought it was a pity when he recalled that call: "Someone wants to entrust us to find a dog, right? You didn't even ask how much it was... If you have more, just take it."

"The main reason I hung up the phone was that at the time, I thought that if we were on TV and had exposure, a case would come to our door the next day." Shirley was also a little unhappy when she said this: "...I didn't expect the only one The case didn't bring in anything. Besides, it's not a detective's job to hunt down dogs. Don't you agree with that?"

"I agree, I agree, but the money is another matter." He Nan felt deeply sorry: "We are short of money, Shirley! When detectives have no serious work, as long as they can use their flexible brains, they can do any job." Did you do well?"

"...Like moving furniture?"

"Uh...that's an exception." Feeling Shirley's fingers gently kneading the bruise, He Nan felt that this was the most effective medicine in the world for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis: "Actually, to some extent, isn't the detective just Is it the type of work to solve puzzles and relieve people's doubts? Then we help people solve the doubts about how to move furniture down, how to solve the puzzles of how to easily pass through narrow corridors with large pieces of furniture, and how to lift them with less effort. Isn't it also performing detective work? mission?"

"Hmm, you are right." Xueli couldn't help laughing when she heard He Nan's sophistry: "It seems that we will do more manual work in the future, don't we? In fact, apart from working on the assembly line, other occupations It can be said that it has something to do with the detective."

"...I think it's okay to think so." He Nan cleared his throat: "...the premise is that there is a lot of money, and it doesn't delay us in solving the case."

"The only job that can make money in the past few days is tomorrow. If we are unlucky, we can only take one case this month." Shirley said softly.

"Don't be crowed, you." When He Nan thought about the experience of waiting at home every day until he was desperate, he felt horrified: "However... if we receive few cases but get high returns every time, That’s okay. Some detectives specialize in taking on big cases, and some even take a whole month to investigate and travel to many countries and regions. The remuneration must not be less.”

"We won't receive such an exaggerated case for the time being." Hearing what he said, Shirley shook her head: "...I don't even dare to think about it."

"In the future, there will be opportunities when you become more famous. This kind of entrustment will not be handed over to unknown little detectives." He Nan sighed: "...The detective industry is dying of drought and dying of waterlogging. Fame Those who are not high enough have no cases to accept, and there are so many well-known cases that they have to be screened.”
