The famous detective in the comic world

Chapter 259 Blacklist of the Detective Association
"...Yes." Tom swallowed, immediately took out three bundles of money, and hurriedly checked half of the other bundle: "Thirty-five thousand. Take a look."

"No problem." He Nan put the money in the money counter, nodded, and put it in the locked drawer.

Subsequently, the two parties signed a contract.

Tom signed with his own name, while He Nan and Shirley not only signed their own names at the same time, but also affixed the firm's official seal.

"Then, Mr. Tom, please go downstairs and wait for a while. We will come when we are ready. We will drive our own car later, and you should lead the way."

"Okay! I hope it will be soon..." He hurriedly picked up the black plastic bag and briefcase: "This file is here for you."

"no problem."

Watching Tom leave, He Nan stood up, walked to the item cabinet, and organized the equipment.

Like... luminol reagent.

"He Nan, is there anyone you suspect?" Xue Li was still rubbing her lower abdomen, reading the information there.

"Yes." He Nan said.

"Which one?" Shirley tapped the file with her fingers.

"...Those three people."

"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Shirley sneered and glanced at him: "Otherwise?"

"What I mean is that the deceased was definitely not a suicide."

"Hehehe... You didn't say that just now because you were afraid of taking responsibility?"

"Yeah, I'm afraid of overturning the car... Besides, it's wrong for a detective to say something without evidence in front of outsiders." He Nan explained: "It's not something a professional should do."

"You don't think it's suicide. Where is the biggest suspicious point?"

"...Two places." He Nan said in a low voice: "The first is the power outage. The two power outages definitely have their own meanings. They must be for the purpose of plotting... As for the fact that everyone was present at the time of the power outage? That's not the point, because even There may be a way to pull the switch when no one is around... It depends on what the switch looks like, maybe it can be a timing mechanism."

"Hmm..." Shirley was silent for a moment, then nodded: "They should have that kind of electric switch... that is, the effect of tripping is the same as that of actively pulling the switch, and the switch is directly flicked physically. There is no reset button, and there is no other switch prompt."

"Yes, there are at least two ways to operate this kind of gate remotely." He Nan held his chin and walked a few steps: "The first is that the electrical appliances activated at the same time exceed the load power...causing tripping, and the second is to do it. Physical mechanism. It can pull the gate at a pre-set moment, or activate it somehow from a distance... I'm not sure if the evidence is still there, because not only half a year has passed, but also the first and second During the period between power outages, you can also use your hands and feet to recover the remaining traces of the mechanism."

"That's right... It's almost impossible for you to prove that the electric switch was artificially pulled over." Shirley shook her head slightly distressed: "But you just need to convince the employer that the electric switch may be moved. Just restore the scene .The point is still the purpose of the first power outage.”

"It's definitely for doing something in the dark state," He Nan took a breath, "or... it's for restoring a certain scene that can cause fear to the dead."

"How to say?"

"Just a guess—didn't the dead man look very disturbed after the second blackout? I wonder if she saw something... no, definitely not. Otherwise she wouldn't be looking around for signs that the thing came in At this point, He Nan clicked his tongue: "Then, what should make her think that someone has come in here...? Hey, it's confusing no matter how I think about it now, I still have to watch the scene to see if there is any inspiration. "

"Hmm." Shirley agreed, "You said that the biggest suspicious points are two places... What about the second one?"

"The second method is the suicide method." He Nan was very puzzled: "Why use the needle of the phonograph, and deliberately choose the piano wire to slowly strangle to death? This is too painful."

"Indeed." Shirley also frowned: "It's too slow to die like this. Suffocation and throat cutting...but it's very painful."

"Really? So this method of death always feels like a deliberate disguise..." He Nan sighed when he said this: "Anyway, it's strange enough. This case...maybe very challenging. There are too few clues, and there are too many in the past. It's been too long, how to prove who killed her? Hope we get some inspiration when we get there."

"Okay, it's after that. Now put your mind at ease." Shirley said so softly.Standing up with a smile, he drank the brown sugar ginger tea in the cup in one gulp: "It's finally paid off, be happy. Even if you can't solve the case, you can still get half of the deposit."

To get money in this way, detectives must devote enough energy to the case and can't solve it before they can get it, otherwise they will be sued and sued to the Detective Association.

It is usually a bit difficult to take the legal route, because the detective's case-solving contract is not protected by law and has exclusive clauses like other normal labor contracts, property transaction contracts, etc.It is legally regarded as a special cooperation contract, not an employment relationship.

Therefore, it is often fruitless to go to court to sue detectives.

Conversely, it is useless for the detective to sue the employer without paying the money.

At this time, either the gangsters or the Detective Association, which has a parallel relationship with the Detective Union, can help with arbitration, but he can only apply pressure, and cannot directly punish or collect money.

What is more depressing is that such associations have strong constraints on detectives and have little influence on employers.

If a detective breaks the rules, he may be blocked by the Detective Association. Although your ID cannot be confiscated, your reputation among colleagues will be bad.The Detective Association will also designate you as an unrecommended unscrupulous detective on the official website and affiliated forums, and expose the black history, which will affect your business.

And what about employers defaulting on remuneration...

...The Detective Association will ask for it for you, and even launch a public opinion offensive and blackmail the employer, but that has very little influence in society.The so-called blacklisting is just to warn colleagues on the official website and affiliated forums that this employer has committed evil deeds of not paying remuneration, please colleagues should carefully consider whether to accept his case again.

Basically useless.

Not to mention that most employers only find such a detective once in a lifetime...

...Even if they are detectives, not everyone checks the reputation of their employer on the website of the Detective Association.

Moreover, if the employer is at fault, it may not necessarily be recorded on it.

Because the detective who was cheated would not necessarily go to the official record of the matter.

Reasons may include fear of being retaliated, simply not having this habit, and so on.

...but He Nan has a habit of using this website.

The person who came to entrust the case last time was a child, so he thought it didn't matter if it was close or not.

But this time it was a case entrusted by a normal adult who signed a contract, so it was naturally different.

To check.
