The three of them took turns to rest for an hour, and after removing the influence of Sun Holy Emblem on them, they embarked on the return journey.
It took about three hours to return from Morse Town to Tingen. When the carriage stopped at Zouteland Street 34, it was already seven o'clock in the evening.
Along the way, even while driving, Leonard repeatedly looked at 3-0782, "Mutated Sun Holy Emblem" in his hand with a puzzled look on his face, trying to find out what problems there were, but he could not get the answer until Sealed Artifact was returned to Chanis Gate.
Returning to the second floor from the basement, Angel was stopped by Klein. The latter looked at the spiral staircase leading to the underground, and said before Leonard could follow:
"Should we continue the search for the 'Red Chimney' tomorrow? We have been delayed for several days and the progress is behind us."
After this almost outing mission, he seemed no longer obsessed with the death of Old Neil?
Angel nodded and asked, "Or every afternoon?"
"Yes, I have already reported to the captain. Leonard and I will look for clues about Lanevus in the morning. The search for the 'Red Chimney' can only be done in the afternoon."
Since after the last raid on Ms. D's stronghold, Klein divined that the fraudster Lanevus was related to "Aurora Order", so Criminal, who had stolen tens of thousands of pounds, has been upgraded to a suspect involved in extraordinary events, and Nighthawks can intervene.
In previous investigations, they had discovered some clues and were taking turns monitoring a lunatic asylum. It was said that a certain patient had many connections with Lanevus before going crazy.
Since she did not participate in this task, Angel did not know the details. She was more concerned about the investigation report of the "Red Chimney" she bought for 30 pounds. After more than half a month of searching, the two have basically eliminated the buildings in Tingen City, and the next step of exploration will be towards the suburbs of Tingen.
After making an appointment with Klein, Angel left Blackthorn Security Company. For Chanis Gate, who was not on duty today, it was considered "late return" from get off work now.
Fortunately, no one is waiting for me to come home...
Angel smiled bitterly and summoned a hired carriage. She did not return to Daffodil Street immediately. Instead, she took the car to Evil Dragon Bar in Docklands. She bought a lot of materials for making special ammunition at Underground Market, almost spending all her cash.
Then she returned to Daffodil Street carrying the wooden box.
"Mr. Benson?"
After getting off the hired carriage, Angel was about to go home, but he found a man jumping out of the Public Carriage next to him. He was wearing a vest and shirt, holding a document bag in one hand and holding his coat in the other. His hairline receded, and his face was full of exhaustion.
Hearing someone calling him, Benson turned his head curiously and found that it was the female colleague of his younger brother Klein.
"Good evening, Miss Granger," he looked at the hired carriage that was about to leave and said with a pursed lips, "There are more and more companies that don't let their employees get off work on time."
"Fortunately, the salary is generous enough, so I can only tolerate such small things."
Angel answered with a smile, and the two walked side by side to the opposite side of the street, stopping at the door of Moretti's house at No. Daffodil Street 2.
"And I have to clarify, I actually got off work at seven o'clock today. The reason why I came back so late is because..." She picked up the wooden box on the handle and "went to Docklands to buy something."
Benson nodded clearly. "I just came back from Docklands. I could have finished these things before five o'clock in the afternoon, but our inefficient boss..."
"Klein...Benson?"
Benson's complaint against the boss was interrupted by a clear shout. A young face flashed past the protruding window facing the street. Then the door of Moretti's house opened and Melissa poked his head out.
"I thought it was Klein who came back."
"You are too unfavorable to one, sister."
After leaning towards the door and letting himself be shrouded in the overflowing light from the room, Benson pretended to be dissatisfied and said.
"That's because it's become normal for you to work overtime, and coming home late won't surprise me. If I see you staying home right after school one day, I'd have to wonder if you're unemployed."
Melissa said unceremoniously.
Seeing the brother and sister bickering back and forth, Angel smiled enviously.
"Miss Angel, I happened to meet you today. I originally planned to ask you about this matter." Melissa and Benson chatted for a while and then looked over. "We plan to hire a handyman maid, preferably one who is good at cooking. Do you have any recommendations?"
A handy maid who also needs to be good at cooking?
Angel almost blurted out the suggestion that she hire a maid and a chef respectively, but then she thought about it. With the income of Klein's family, it was impossible to hire both at the same time. She could only choose a "versatile" one.
By the way, Tromi seems to have said that he can cook some simple dishes...
She thought of the female worker Tromi who helped her house with cleaning and laundry.
"If you don't have high requirements for cooking skills..."
Angel introduced his female worker... well, Tromi, who can only be regarded as half of his own female worker, to Melissa and Benson.
"But she is already working at your house. If we hire her..." Melissa was still a little hesitant, as if he was worried that hiring the female worker from Angel's house would be tantamount to throwing his own problems to the other party.
"I think we can hire them together. After all, my house only needs simple cleaning and laundry, and you don't need a maid on call all day long. This way Tromi will be a little more tired than now, but the income will be higher, and we don't need to pay the full employment fee each."
Angel thought of a solution that offers the best of both worlds.
This will undoubtedly increase the work burden of female worker Tromi, but compared to her current situation of running back and forth between multiple employers every day, fixing two adjacent employers, and even getting food and accommodation included, it is actually better for her.
While Melissa was still frowning and thinking, Benson had already nodded in agreement with the plan.
"I think Miss Granger's plan is very suitable. What needs to be discussed carefully is just the price." He nodded towards Melissa and stopped his sister who was about to continue speaking. "If it is convenient, let her come to our house tomorrow evening to try to do some housework?"
As the two continued to hammer out the details, a hired carriage slowly passed by and stopped on the side of the road.
Klein, who looked tired, stepped out of the carriage. Before he could take two steps, he found Angel and the three of them standing on the side of the road. They were stunned for a moment, then quickly stepped forward and arrived at the door of their house.
"Klein, I didn't expect you to be the last one to come back."
The sharp-eyed Melissa spotted him first.
"I didn't expect that I was later than Benson," Klein forced a smile, and then looked at Angel, "Angel, did you just come back too?"
"Yes, I met Mr. Benson and chatted for a few words. I'm also curious about how I arrived home before you after going around a circle from Docklands."
Angel found that Klein was even more tired than before when he said goodbye. It was obvious that he was not wasting time resting at Blackthorn Security Company, but had gone somewhere else.
"I went to Mr. Azik's house and asked a few questions. He plans to leave Tingen tomorrow and go to Backlund."
Recalling the bronze-skinned university teacher, Angel asked doubtfully:
"Didn't he just come back from vacation?"
"He left something behind at Backlund. It will take some time to find it."
Klein replied, with a hint of sadness in his eyes.
I left something at Backlund, do I need to go there in person? And listening to what he said, it seemed like he would be gone for quite some time...
Angel didn't think about it in detail and just nodded to express his understanding.
Now that Klein has come back, she is not going to bother Moretti Family any more. She said goodbye casually and was about to leave, but Melissa stopped her.
"Miss Angel, are you free this weekend?"
"I have this Sunday off. Is there anything you need my help with?"
Melissa smiled happily when she heard this. She glanced at Klein quickly, and then said, "This weekend North Borough Red Moon Street's Street Park - not far from Saint Selena Cathedral - there is an event to celebrate the completion of the new park. Benson and I both have a day off on Sunday, well, so does Klein, so..."
She looked at Angel expectantly.
The latter looked at Klein and saw that he had a confused look on his face, obviously not knowing his sister's arrangements in advance.
Not wanting to live up to Melissa's "elaborate design", Angel nodded.
