Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

In Count Hall's villa, Audrey saw Hobert's letter and breathed a sigh of relief: Mr. Fool's mission was finally entrusted. With the reliability that Hobert usually showed, the strength of the Extraordinary he found should be no problem.

She read the brief letter again: Unexpectedly, it would cost so much to assassinate an ambassador! Also, the additional conditions proposed by the other party are also somewhat difficult!

"Audrey, the person who wrote me the letter seems to know that I can talk." Susie said suddenly.

Audrey was a little surprised at first, then shook her head and smiled: "Impossible, Mr. Hobert has only been here twice in total. It is impossible for him to know that you have taken magic potion."

"Theoretically yes."

Audrey was a little dizzy. Oh my God, Susie started to reason!

Susie's big mouth opened and closed: "But according to my observation, he seemed to want to talk to me several times when he was sending the letter, but when the words came to his mouth, they turned into some nonsense."

Audrey frowned. Of course she believed in Susie's observation ability.

But this makes no sense at all. Hobert has never met Susie.

…

Hobert, who was riding a carriage to Blanca Street, touched his growling stomach and thought to himself that it was very dangerous.

Several times he almost asked Susie to give him a message, telling Audrey to keep it confidential.

Hobert recalled the image of Susie again and found that she was really a good candidate for the "dog of fantasy". In front of it, it was always easy for people to let down their guard.

Back at the rental house, Xio had already rested, and Forsi was still reading a magazine, obviously waiting for Hobert and leaving him a dinner.

Holbert praised Forsi's carefulness while devouring the food.

After Hobert finished eating, Forsi came over to ask about the result. After learning that Hobert successfully entrusted the task, Forsi also breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she and Xio failed to entrust the task today, Audrey still gave them a commission fee of 500 pounds.

This money made Forsi and Xio feel that they deserved it, but Audrey insisted on giving it at the time. Besides, they did take some risks, but after getting the money, they felt a little regretful. After all, they had not completed Audrey's mission. Delegate.

After knowing that the matter was entrusted, Forsi could feel more at ease.

Hobert warned: "Keep it secret. Don't talk about it with Xio outside."

"We know." Forsi said worriedly: "But we don't know where Mr. A is..."

Hobert smiled: "These lunatics want Backlund to be as chaotic as possible."

And he is currently working hard to recover and has no time to care about such things.

After the mission of assassinating the ambassador was entrusted, all that was left was to wait.

And life goes on.

On Wednesday morning, Hobert appeared in court. Many reporters and citizens who heard the news came to see Hobert's debate.

Little did they know that the first thing the defendant did after arriving at the court was to seek an out-of-court settlement with Hobert.

It turned out that after learning that the plaintiff's lawyer was Hobert, the defendant had been to many law firms for more than a week, but no lawyer was willing to defend him.

Barrister Hugo lost, ordinary lawyers knew they could not win against Hobert and simply refused to avoid humiliating themselves, while barristers cherished their feathers and were unwilling to appear in court.

You must know that due to the huge impact of the "workers' compensation case", Hugo's lawyer's business volume has dropped sharply, and no one is willing to follow in Hugo's footsteps.

Hobert didn't expect that a case that he had prepared for a week and was obviously difficult would be solved so easily!

The reporters were also disappointed and their trip was in vain.

Hobert told Cody who came with him: "Don't be careless, your case is not so easy to solve."

Cody smiled bitterly and said, "I know."

Of course he knew that he did not have the popularity and fame of Hobert.

At ten o'clock, the case Cody was responsible for went to trial. This case was also somewhat difficult. After repeated back and forth between the lawyers on both sides, a settlement plan was finally reached.

During lunch, Hobert helped Cody summarize the mistakes and lessons learned from this round of defense as usual, which also benefited Cody a lot.

After accompanying three subordinates to court one after another, Hobert had a basic understanding of their abilities, and he would have an idea of ​​what they were capable of when assigning cases in the future.

As soon as she returned to the office, Jessica reported to Hobert: "There is a special customer waiting here this morning. I don't know whether I should accept her commission."

Hobert asked as he took off his trench coat: "What's so special about it?"

"Well, she's a street girl."

"Jessica, I know you have some unique abilities, so you will never fall to this point." Hobert said: "In my opinion, street girls and those workers and farmers who cannot protect their rights It’s the same, it’s a tragedy of this era. I hope you won’t look at any client differently.”

Hobert's obvious reproachful tone made Jessica blush: "I know, but I..."

"Afraid it will affect my reputation?"

Jessica didn't say anything, but she did think so.

Hobert smiled and said: "If I lose the lawsuit, it will affect my reputation."

Then he said seriously: "Didn't you notice? The clients who come to us basically regard us as their last hope.

"The 'hope of the people at the bottom of Backlund' sounds good. Many years from now, we may even be the hope of this era."

Jessica looked at Hobert excitedly, who doesn't want to leave his mark on an era?

"Invite her to come to my office." Hobert looked at Jessica walking out and smiled. She was still too young to be filled up by the leader's pie so easily.

The client's name is Emma, ​​she is in her twenties, wearing Backlund's most fashionable dress, light makeup, and a charming charm between her eyebrows.

In order to avoid suspicion, Jessica also sat aside and listened.

Hobert quickly came to the conclusion that Emma was a "senior" street girl, the type who regarded street girls as their job.

Not a part-time job, nor a woman sold into a red light district by human traffickers. The clothes of the former will not be so beautiful, and the latter will not have much personal freedom.

When Emma saw Hobert, she smiled charmingly: "If Lawyer Hobert comes to our store anytime, I will definitely give you a discount."

If they had the power to choose their clients, they would certainly be willing to choose young, handsome, gentle and true gentlemen.

Hobert smiled and said: "I don't have such a need yet."

After chatting for a while, under Hobert's guidance, Emma began to tell the story of the case.

It turns out that there is a scoundrel named Wendell in the red light district recently, who specially patronizes "small shops" jointly opened by several street girls like Emma, ​​and refuses to pay after all the changes.

Because such small shops cannot afford to hire thugs, he has succeeded in many small shops. He once threatened: "If you have the ability, go and sue me!"

Emma said: "A colleague actually sued him, but lost the case."
