Keith headed back to the Bar''s mansion and saw that Amelia was already there, talking to Brandon and Edward right outside the gates.
"Hey guys, good evening." Keith greeted them.
"Look who''s here... you''re too early by the way." Edwardmented when he saw Keith walking towards them.
Keith nodded, "Well... it was hard to sleep when I already sleptst night. Anyways, I simply have to keep watch outside the Bar''s room right?"
Brandon shook his head, "Not really. We let you go early, but now that you''re here, there''s something you must do." he said and paused for a second before continuing.
"Well, the only thing you checked was ngson''s study room, so your job now is to look at every single room in the mansion and report to your senior, who in this case, is Amelia. Just tell her if you find something suspicious."
"Understood." Keith said without thinking too much of it and looked at Amelia who was grinning from ear to ear, "You... wait I forgot that you were the junior until I got hired."
The target hit the bullseye as Amelia expression warped to that of fury, but she didn''t say anything lest he counter her with another lewdment. Instead, she directed her frustration at Brandon.
"Can''t we just transfer him to some other district? This kid is too disrespectful."
Edward chucked while Brandonughed loudly, "You do know that he''s an year older than you right?"
"I...."
"It''s fine." Keith interrupted before the two guys in front of him angered the girl too much. He had to spend the rest of the night shift with her as his boss and he didn''t want an uncooperative partner.
"When ites to work, age doesn''t matter. Isn''t that right, sir Edward?"
"You''re right." Edward said, the yfulness in his voice gone as he looked at Keith with a serious look on his face, "We must learn when to act professional and when to act like friends."
He then patted Keith''s shoulder before leaving and Brandon followed behind him as he stretched his back, letting out a satisfied grunt while doing so.
Keith turned to look at Amelia and a yful smile popped up on his face, "Senior Amelia, I hope you can teach me a lot of things tonight."
"Y- you! Stop making things sound so.... so suspicious!"
"Hahahahaha sorry." he said as he walked in, thinking about ngson and the words he had said in the morning.
A slight frown formed on his face as he recalled the information.
''He has connection to the ck market, so I''ll have to try to get some information from him. Once I do, I can give Adam a system and sell the bullets at the ck market.''
He silently walked inside and began to scour through the entire mansion with a maid as a guide while Amelia stayed with ngson. It took him more than 5 hours to check every single room, but once he did, he let out a sigh.
He looked at the butler who was standing in front of him and said, "Tell the oldest daughter of Sir ngson to meet us in the living room. There are quite a few things that I must ask her."
Keith''s gaze the shifted to the maid who had been guiding him until now, "As for you... just bring the item that you have. Once you''re done, you''re free to leave."
"Thank you, detective.... um."
"Keith."
"Yes, yes. Thank you, detective Keith."
Keith simply nodded and headed towards the living room where Amelia and ngson were at. Once he got close, he heard a terrible sounding out of the room and from the notes that were being yed, it was obvious that someone was ying the piano.
With an annoyed look on his face, he walked in and saw Amelia sitting in front of the piano with an extremely focused gaze.
Keith pped twice and the two ps echoed in the room, which prompted the two of them to look in his direction.
"I have news, but it''s not exactly good."
"Just blurt it out, please? I was trying to learn this thing."
Keith nced at the piano and sighed, "Maybe it''ll be better to learn somewhere else. If you continue, my ears are going to bleed."
Before Amelia could say anything to counter him, he continued, "Anyways... Sir ngson, I feel like your daughter might be in danger. Almost every single thing in her room gave me urge to leave the room."
"There''s also one object that''s on the same level as the skull that we saw in the study room." he said as his gaze shifted to Amelia.
ngson thought about Keith''s words for a second before speaking, "My daughter attends a lot of parties hosted by the other bars. Maybe it''s from them?"
"That''s possible, but there could also be other reasons." Amelia said as she got off her chair and walked towards the tea table where the maid had just ced a small fountain pen. She picked it up and looked at Keith, "Is this the one?"
He nodded in response and looked at ngson, "By the way... this ck market. What kind of ce is it? And how do you get an entry?"
"It''s just a regr market but some illegal things are sold there. There''s also a lot of stolen items sold for cheap. As for getting an entry... this is not really a secret society kind of thing. It''s avable to the public as long as you know where to go.
You simply have go to that theatre that''s behind the God of Money''s Church and as long as you have enough money, or something valuable, they''ll let you in. Just make sure that you''re wearing a in y mask that''s painted white."
Keith nodded as he began to make his ns. There was no need for him to wait for too long if he wanted to visit the ck market.
''I''ll just go see how things work there and start my business once I get Adam''s awakened ability.''
