Chapter 522: Back to the Police Station
Thea Shaw thought of Mrs. Quinn.
She thought maybe she should find an opportunity to visit Mrs. Quinn.
But currently, she didn’t even have a way to contact her, which was quite urgent.
"I’ll go investigate, you stay in Fenmore and wait for my news, or go back to Aethelgard and wait. We’ve already traced it to the church, maybe you’ve already caught someone else’s attention."
Thea Shaw had the same concern, she thought with a complex expression: "But I can’t find clues even if I don’t."
Things had come to this point, if she didn’t find out first, she felt uneasy inside.
From her master, she learned that there might be another person from Qirenia who had come here long ago to set up a layout. The purpose of the other party was still unclear, and if she couldn’t find the person, it was like having a sword hanging over her.
"We’ll have to endure for now."
Landon Ford’s voice carried a warning: "Otherwise, you wait for me for two days. I’ll come over, and then we’ll act."
Recently, things had piled up too much, and Landon Ford also praised: "Your master has some skill, Ryan Sinclair is just about done for."
Thea Shaw was somewhat shocked: "Falling so quickly?"
She thought that with Ryan Sinclair’s status in the Sinclair Family, he could at least hold out a bit longer.
The key was that her master could actually bring Ryan Sinclair down, impressive indeed.
"She found the woman who gave false testimony for Ryan Sinclair back then and somehow got her to admit that Ryan Sinclair helped her escape legal punishment. This matter was reported to the higher-ups, and there were opponents of the Sinclair Family fanning the flames in this. It’s unavoidable for Ryan Sinclair to fall, and because Silas Sinclair was stabbed because of Iris Knight, the family abandoned him, most likely supporting Julian Sinclair to rise to the top."
Thea Shaw was not surprised.
If her master didn’t have that kind of skill, she wouldn’t have been able to inherit the position of State Preceptor back then.
Thea Shaw happily said, "Once my master is done with her business, I can have her come over to help investigate things here."
After all, it involves Qirenia, her master is probably concerned about it too.
"Your master seems to have quite some skills," Landon Ford said meaningfully, and Thea Shaw felt a chill for a moment, then giggled and said: "She really has skills."
No direct response.
Landon Ford had probably suspected something for a long time.
Florence Locke appeared to be a resigned executive, but nothing she was doing now matched with modern elite activities - except for keeping a young lover.
Moreover, she seemed to have had no contact with Thea Shaw before and suddenly became Thea Shaw’s master, anyone would see there’s an issue.
The Sutton Family can’t find out, Landon Ford knows something, but hasn’t asked.
He didn’t want to break the delicate peace at present.
Of course, being kept in the dark was certainly displeasing, but he was reluctant to blame Thea Shaw for anything, only laughing lightly: "Quite skilled indeed, how else could she teach someone as talented as you? Get some rest, don’t go causing trouble."
"I won’t!"
Thea Shaw confessed honestly, then just as she finished speaking, she was proven otherwise.
While staying at the hotel, Thea Shaw’s door was knocked. She put on her full nightclothes and opened the door, outside stood two policemen with serious expressions.
"Hello, Miss Shaw, we are officers from the XX district police in Fenmore. We have information related to a homicide case that we’d like you to come to the station to help investigate."
Thea Shaw: "..."
At that moment, she really couldn’t think of where the homicide had occurred.
But at that moment she did think of Mr. Sutton, far away in Aethelgard, and the subtle reaction he might have.
She smiled: "I’ll change clothes and go with you, also, will you notify the family members?"
Police: "..."
