Metal Ranger of the Endless Plane

Seeing her recovering, Lu Yuan suppressed some of the words in his heart and said directly to Helena, "Well, we'll take this job."

Helena was in a polite meeting with Yanzi, and when she heard what he said, she turned around and asked, "Then, how much does it cost?"

Lu Yuan was about to speak, but Yanzi rushed to talk, "500 US dollars. We generally charge between 2,000 and 5,000 for this type of data collection task. But you are a friend, and this task is not dangerous. So I’ll give you a friendship discount for 500 dollars."

As far as the price of the swallows is concerned, it is definitely conscientious in terms of their abilities. After all, it is the service of two traversers. And compared with the income of their other tasks, this price is almost nothing.

But for the daily residents of Los Santos, asking a private investigator for $500 to investigate a person is not expensive, but it is not cheap.

Helena gritted her teeth, hesitated for a while, and finally turned around and took out her wallet and said, "Deal!"

...

After parting with Helena, Lu Yuan and the two drove directly away from the school. Sitting on Lu Yuan in the co-pilot, he once again hesitated to tell Yanzi about her fate, and from time to time she secretly looked at her expressionless face.

Thinking of the sad look of Yanzi just now, Lu Yuan's mood is also a little complicated. After thinking for a while, just when he was about to put aside his worries and tell Yanzi about her future, the girl stopped and said, "Don't say it! Please, I don't want to listen!"

The girl's voice was full of unspeakable sadness, and Lu Yuan's words suddenly became "Where are we going now?"

Seeing that Lu Yuan finally didn't say anything, Yanzi breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn't help humming twice at his inferior diversion.

"Go back to the hotel, where else can I go? Is it possible to start work now?"

Lu Yuan rubbed the stubble, looked at the swallow whose face turned cloudy, and said, "Alright, let's go directly to Helena's adoptive parents."

"What?" Yanzi said strangely, "I don't object to starting work, but why is it her adoptive parents?"

At this time, Lu Yuan showed his smug and owing smile again, and said with a confident expression, "Didn't you hear it before? It's Helena who thinks that Turner has a problem, but her adoptive parents are very supportive. "

"So what? It just shows that they are kind, and it fits well with their behavior of adopting children for years?"

Lu Yuan shook his head, "It's a good match, but do you think Helena is a naive and childlike Virgin with a heart?"

Although Yanzi was a little suspicious about his question, she still shook her head slowly.

Just listen to him continue, "That’s it. Even if Helena matures earlier than the average person because of being an orphan, you can’t see any flaws in her character at the moment? And she works in her own home to earn tuition, and she still uses that. This is a very effective way to teach ladies to let rich men pay.

In recent decades, Meka has been weakening orphanages, strengthening adoption policies, and prioritizing the return of orphans to their families. Helena is certain that she spends most of her time with her adoptive parents. This kind of routine can't always be learned by her when she was an orphan in a transit agency such as a child welfare center, right? "

"So what? She learned a few gloves from her adoptive parents, but later?" Yanzi was still not convinced.

"Ha," Lu Yuan said with a smile, "Is it really that simple for a parent who can teach children this kind of routine?"

"so?"

"So they have no doubts about that Turner Newman, and even showed support for him to adopt Liz back. There must be enough reasons." Lu Yuan said.

"But they didn't tell Helena? Otherwise, why would she still doubt it? Why?" Yanzi wondered.

"Now, you can ask them in person." Lu Yuan chuckled.

Although Yanzi disapproved of Lu Yuan's **** appearance, he obediently changed his navigation and drove towards the Pasadena Satellite City in the northeast.

Half an hour later, the two people who got out of the car looked at a double-storey wooden house with a gray roof and white walls. They couldn't help but sigh at the same time, "Nice house!"

The double-storey wooden house in front of you is not only large enough, but also the front and rear courtyards are not small. Amusement equipment such as swings, seesaws, and basketball hoops are placed in the front yard. From the angle of the two people Lu Yuan, you can vaguely see the swimming pool in the back yard.

Surprised, Lu Yuan took out his mobile phone and checked it, and said to Yanzi half-surprised and half-aggressive, "This kind of house is only 420,000 US dollars? Should we also buy one near here?"

Yanzi hesitated for a long time, and finally said, "Forget it, this house seems to be able to live ten people, and it seems that it is all of us, right?"

"Four rooms, three living rooms and four bathrooms, tusk, what a big family!" Lu Yuan sighed while looking at the instructions on the property website. After hearing what Yanzi said, he said again, "It's okay, including the recent contributions you made. For those incomes, our savings have just exceeded $500,000."

Yanzi nodded, remembering some news he had recently heard during an outside mission, and hurriedly said to Lu Yuan, "We can buy an office from the security office, just like the hunters. The office also has showers and beds. , You can still live."

Seeing Lu Yuan looking at herself suspiciously, Yanzi hurriedly said, "It is said that the security office has more preferential treatment to registered companies with offices and provides more tasks. And then they have the right to hire other registered security, just like hunters. Hire us like that."

"Let's talk about it, anyway, we don't have enough money now." Lu Yuan nodded and ended the topic, then gestured to Yanzi and walked towards the door of the house together.

After knocking on the doorbell, a moment later, a beautiful woman about forty to fifty years old opened the door. Seeing the two of Lu Yuan, she couldn't help but wonder, "You are?"

Lu Yuan smiled friendly at the woman, and said in a gentle manner, "We are private investigators. We are commissioned by your daughter to investigate some things. Because I have some questions, I want to ask you and your husband about some things first."

"Uh!" The woman was obviously unprepared for this, but when she heard that Lu Yuan was hired by her daughter, she hurriedly let them into the house.

Sitting down in the living room to meet the two of them, the woman let the two children who were doing homework in the dining room next to the living room go back to their room upstairs. Then she went to the kitchen and said to Lu Yuan, "What do you drink?"

"Tea is fine, thank you!" X2

After putting two cups of black tea in front of them, the woman sat down, helplessly and pettingly asked them, "Is the clever little Liz looking for you? She did it again this time. What tricks do you want to play? Uh, are you her substitute teacher or the club senior?"

After hearing this, the two looked at each other, and they knew Helena's uneasy sister Elizabeth again.

After a light cough, Lu Yuan said first, "Mrs. Kent, it's your other daughter. Helena invited us. I, uh, should be her college classmates."

When I heard that it was not Liz but the two invited by Helena, the woman was relieved and more puzzled, but she kindly said to the two of them, "It turned out to be Helena, how is she? I haven't been home for two weeks. Is she still busy working at the weekend?"

As she said, the woman sighed again, "This child, her father and I have already prepared tuition for her, but she insisted not to do it, and must work to earn money by herself. This child has been competitive since he was a child, and has no secrets. How much suffering has been suffered, and how many sins have been suffered."

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, the woman laughed at herself, "Ah, sorry, look at my mind, I said something irrelevant. So what, uh, by the way, you said Helena asked you to investigate the matter? What do you want to know?"

Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and secretly sighed that the topic did not go further and further on the wrong road. He was about to ask, but heard a jingle at the door, and then a strong male voice came, "I'm back!"

The woman hurriedly got up to greet her. It was her husband, Mr. Kent, who came.

This person is also in his forties. Although his body is strong, he will inevitably be a little blessed. The hairline above his head is also very worrying, but his face is as friendly as his wife.

After hearing his wife retell the origins of the two, the man quickly reacted and said to the two of them, "Helena sent you to ask about Turner Newman, right?"

Before Lu Yuan could speak, the woman exclaimed, "Are you here for this? Why is Helena still uneasy?"

"Hmph, don't you know what kind of temper our Helena is? You are stubborn, and you don't know who you learned from! On the surface you are promised not to be entangled, and you will definitely investigate behind you." Although the man said so, But that proud face still betrayed his ideas to everyone.

The man also sat down while the woman went to the kitchen again. He only heard the man sighed and said, "Actually, this is not difficult to explain, but there are many things that involve personal privacy, and we all think this is the best for little Liz, so there are some things that I didn't tell Helena."

"Good for little Liz?" Lu Yuan repeated thoughtfully.

"Well, sorry, I can't tell you other things directly." The man said.

After thinking about it, Lu Yuan said, "That's it, Mr. Kent. I believe you have your own good reasons, but this reason is not enough for us to convince customers."

"There is one thing that Mrs. Kent may not have made it clear to you. We are real registered detectives and we have our own professional ethics. Even if you don't say anything, we will use our own resources to investigate clearly."

"In that case, it may affect your arrangements." Lu Yuan said slowly, "I think it is better for you to tell the inside story. Let's discuss together how to reply to Helena, which will not affect your previous plans, but also Can we complete this case, how?"
