On a new day, Zach stared blankly at the "How to get on the Republican News" page without writing any content.
Sires came to report on Nenad's progress, saying that the ancestor of the Cappadocia clan (Xiao Ka) attached great importance to the possibility of another 'Zac's clone' appearing, and went to investigate it personally.
…
Zach couldn't have any expectations.
Roy also started dressing up in the morning as usual... and then went to find Corden. Harrison's place went to Saint Sissy's place yesterday and he hasn't come back since.
Just when Zach thought his day was going to be ruined, Nuo came.
A piece of information was handed directly to Zach, "The reward is sixty-four cents, six for me and four for you~"
"Why not an equal share?" Zach was very happy that his meaningless routine was interrupted by Nuo.
"Before the Charming Eyes were lifted, I spent too much money for no reason~ Now I'm a little short of money~" Nuo answered.
"Then nine points to one point, nine points to you and one point to me." Zach smiled and opened the commission information.
Zack didn't pay much attention to who the client was. The content of the request was... a speechless illegal tracking and evidence collection.
To put it in professional terms, it is quite consistent with the work content of gray professions, right? But if I tell you specifically what it is, you will know how speechless you are.
A wife suspected that her husband was having an affair and asked the Rippert Firm to investigate (No's firm).
After reading the information, Zach curled his lips and said, "I'll do this commission for you for free."
"Business is business~" Nuo refused with a smile, "91 points as you said before."
Zach just felt that it would be a loss for Grande to accept such a commission. Forget it, since Nuo insisted, "How are you going to end this commission? Does the fact that the man said it himself count?"
Zach is already planning the work and life schedule of the person who needs to be investigated in the entrusted information. Zack found an opportunity to get close, used the Charming Eyes and the recording pen, and the commission was over. It also allows Nuo to get out of this boring incident as soon as possible.
"Forget it." Nuo was already shaking the key in his hand, "Let's go~"
The two left Grande.
According to the itinerary provided in the entrustment information, the person under investigation is currently working. It was a decent job, working as a financial entrustee in an accounting firm.
Nuo parked the car outside the investigator's company. Because there were many people coming in and out of the company, he and Zach couldn't go in now. They could only find the relevant information about the commission from the bag and add some information. Nuo came without the commission. Find Zach, he has done enough homework on his own~
"This company only took over personal finance work before. You know, personal taxation." Nuo explained that Zach was observing people entering and leaving this financial company. Since I can't take action for the time being, it's better to judge the social relationship level of the investigator.
"It seems to have a pretty good reputation."
"How did the financial company gain its reputation?" Zach asked casually out of curiosity.
"Well..." Nuo shrugged, "You may not really feel anything. People in normal society live under the management of the government. If they cannot bear the tax obligations in the system." Nor paused, "Even if Even if they have legal status in this country, they will not be treated as legal citizens. Such people will lose all social resources and even... their home."
"Homeless bums." Zach raised an eyebrow, "That's how most of them come, right?"
"Yes." Nuo nodded, "Business owners like you who used to rely on government support." He was talking about the time when Grande was not privatized. "People who have a backer to protect their personal identity will probably never understand that. The lives of ordinary people~"
Zach didn't deny it, nor did he admit it. "I actually understand it, but I don't have to face this kind of problem after I understand it. If I live with one of my human identities until I can't survive, I will change my identity and start over."
hehe. Also, have you ever seen a homeless vampire? no. When a vampire's life reaches that point, the vampire himself gives up on that period of life.
Nuo smiled, "That's what I meant. Ordinary people don't have the ability to start over like you~" Then, "This is how financial companies accumulate reputation. As a legal financial company, taking over such personal finance Although the remuneration for care is not fixed, there is actually no difference for them between telling a person that you are bankrupt after financial settlement and you and your family will be homeless from now on; and trying to tell a arrogant person with a smile that you are still alive this year. There is no difference in the amount of tax they receive."
Zach was listening carefully.
"Based on this reality, this company's reputation is built on helping people who are at risk of losing their basic livelihood, finding loopholes in the system, avoiding the consequences of bankruptcy, and helping ordinary people maintain their lives."
Zach raised his eyebrows, "A loophole in the system? Isn't this no different from a gray professional?"
"Strictly speaking, yes." Nuo nodded and looked at Zach with a smile, "That's why I'm looking for you." Nuo showed the photo on the commission document to Zach again, "Do you remember Bishop's previous section? Have you reorganized your legal team?"
Zach nodded, "Remember."
"Although that group of people are still in the gray professional circle where we gather at Bobo Bar, the focus of work has become more and more biased towards Bishop's private team in the West End."
Zach thought for a moment and understood.
We have also followed Zach to observe several parties at Bobo Bar. We know the content of the party. In addition to drinking and entertainment, the real owner has always been gray professionals in various industries exchanging internal intelligence and news.
The ethical standard among gray professionals is that all information can be shared except for the matters they are currently dealing with.
What Nuo means now is that the information about Bishop has been blocked by a group of lawyers who have become Bishop's team.
The intelligence organization on which Patton's gray career depended was no longer current on a topic.
This is a very unhealthy situation for the entire industry.
Zach looked at Nuo, "We..." Of course it's us. Zach didn't quit the gray professional circle, he just stopped attending the party. "Need new people to join?" After Nuo nodded to confirm, he looked at Investigator’s photo.
"Yes~" Nuo gave the information to Zach, "The relationship between finance and legal affairs is closer than most people understand. It is too dangerous for our professional attributes to contact those lawyers rashly, so~" Nuo also began to observe There are people coming in and out of this financial company. "I have been observing this company for a while. If this commission can develop as I expected~ Hahaha." Nuo smiled without hiding it, "I can use it. This kind of cheating scandal threatens him to join our gray professional group first, and then when he gets familiar with it and he tastes the sweetness, then... "
Nuo's abacus was very good. It is very consistent with the way of thinking and acting of a gray professional. only…
Zach looked at the photos of the people who needed to be investigated, "No, I think..." He wanted to sigh, "The situation you envisioned... can't be realized."
The smile on Nuo's face disappeared and he looked at Zach, "Why?"
"This person." Zach looked at the photo, "He died once, at Pai Siying's carnival before."
"What?"
"This is one of the Barton people who was innocently involved in Andrew's rampage and murder." Zach remembered the appearance of these people, and it was Zach who was responsible for covering up the truth! "He is dead, and now using this body, the demonic subordinates of the fallen angel Jessica are operating in Barton."
Nuo opened his mouth and was quiet for a while, "Oh." A helpless smile appeared on his face, "Fortunately, this commission came to me after my Charming Eyes were lifted."
If it was before the contact, Nuo might be in pain now.
Zach still looked at the photo in his hand and frowned, "Do you have photos of other people in this company?"
Nuo didn't quite understand what Zach meant, but he still acted. He rummaged through his bag, took out a photo, and handed it to Zach.
Zach glanced at the person in the photo, and the corners of his mouth twitched, "This entire company is full of demons." He gave the facts.
The corner of Nuo's mouth also twitched, and he began to look through other information in the bag, and seemed to find something, "Company schedule: xx month xx, Paisiying Carnival party..." Nuo gave Zach the information he read, and relied on himself. He sat back and didn't want to talk.
Zach took it, glanced at it, and didn't even want to speak.
But the silence was going to be broken eventually, and it was Zach who spoke, "Wait a minute. You just said that this company used to be in personal finance. Isn't it anymore?"
Now that he knows that the people in this company are demons, what the demons are doing is worthy of Zack's attention.
"We are now starting to take on some financial outsourcing work from trading companies that deal with the Republic." Nuo answered, while helping Zach find the information page where these contents were written.
Zach looked at it for a while, "Is this a natural change for various companies in Barton under the current environment of Barton, or..." Zach curled his lips, the independent stance of this company controlled by the devil.
Nuo shook his head, "I can't judge this."
Zach did not ask further questions and continued to look at the information in his hand, "In relation to the trade with the Republic, there are many financial contents related to the West End people, especially Bishop, who has the most abundant funds in Barton. This is why you want to take advantage of this opportunity. Is this the reason for recruiting this investigator?”
"Of course, such a coincidence will not happen again..." Nuo waved his hand helplessly, "But now it seems that it is not a coincidence at all, right? It is inevitable. The person who really should be investigated is dead, and his His wife's suspicion of his cheating is probably just a side effect of his personality mutation. Well, I..." Nuo Yi covered his head, "I have a headache."
Zach also had a headache, not that the incident was complicated, but that the situation was uncomfortable.
Zach put all the information away and returned it to Nuo, as he was about to get out of the car, "Since we know it's the devil, we don't have to wait here. I'll go in and find the investigator directly."
Nuo didn't stop Zach, "What are you going to say?"
Zach curled his lips, "Tell the truth. His wife's suspicion. Well, as for your plan to win over..." Zach knew that his wife's entrustment must be made clear, but Nuo was not interested in this financial company that was already in the gray professional category. The company's plan depends on Nuo's current thoughts, so Zach didn't finish and waited for Nuo to fill in.
Nuoyi waved his hand and looked at Zach who had already gotten out of the car. "Let's talk about it together. Demons are not demons, as long as they are willing to do things. There is no rule that gray professionals must be human to enter."
objective.
Zach nodded. Cross the street and walk towards the finance company.
Zach did not enter the door. A man came out and greeted Zach very clearly. He was the person under investigation entrusted by Nuo.
It seems that certain things are already in the devil's perception.
Nuo watched in the car as Zach and the person under investigation talked for a while at the entrance of the company, and then walked to the car together.
Zach opened the door for the devil. After both of them sat in, the devil opened the door first, "I don't mind if my wife thinks I'm cheating. I don't like her. If she wants to take this opportunity to divorce me, I'll be happy to do so." .”
Why.
You shouldn't be expecting anything.
Zach and Nuo looked at each other speechlessly, and Zach said, "I thought Jessica's request for demons like you who use body containers is to be completely loyal to the original life of this container."
Such as Mother Teresa.
"That was true before." The devil said indifferently, "But it's different recently. The Republic Angel seems to have disgusted Jessica, making her feel that the way she managed us in the past was too idealistic. Meaning!" The devil curled his lips, "No matter how well we do, in the eyes of some 'angels', we are still depraved and represent sin!"
Zach could hear the resentment in these words. It seems that the republican 'angel' will not stay in Mary's Church for long.
Zach was quite to the point, "Then I advise you to maintain the original life of this body. You don't know if Jessica will regret indulging you one day."
The devil lowered his head and murmured, "Hey, I think so."
Zach looked at Nuo, "So, it's concluded. The respondent we entrusted to investigate did not cheat. The wife can rest assured that her husband is still finally married."
Nuo took over expressionlessly, "It's just that the company's work has recently been transformed, from personal finance to international trade, and our respondents are experiencing tremendous pressure..." Nuo also looked back at the man in the back seat, "Additional people To middle age. Everyone knows about a man's middle age." In the devil's speechless eyes, Nuo continued, "In this case, what two people in a marriage should do is to open their hearts to each other, understand and support each other, and It’s not suspicion. Right.”
The question wasn't for Zach, but Zach responded, "Yeah."
Then the two people in the front seat looked at the devil in the back seat.
"Uh, okay, okay, I listen to you, I'll go back and talk to my wife!"
"Have a good attitude." Zach reminded.
The devil forced a smile from behind.
"Then it's about the gray professionals." Zach looked back at Nuo.
