Chapter 339 The Eldest Lady's Investigation
For a noble lady who wanted her carriage to be dazzling even during the day, it was really difficult for Ellie to choose a low-key, unobtrusive and stylish car.
In the end, with the recommendation and help of her butler, the eldest lady chose a black BMW. This ordinary-looking car has good performance and will not have any problems in daily use.
The car was booked three days ago and arrived at the hotel where she was staying yesterday at noon. The eldest lady waited at the agreed location for less than a minute, and the car appeared at one end of the street.
As a butler, William was always on time. When the car stopped beside the eldest lady, it was exactly seven o'clock in the morning.
The well-dressed butler walked out of the car, saluted to his lady and said, "Do you need me to drive for you?"
Ellie shook her head and said, "No need, go to the hotel, William. Extend my license for two more days, um, five more days."
The butler nodded obediently and said, "I'll do it right away. Is there anything else, dear lady?"
"Parks, take good care of it. It has flown for a long time these days. Let it rest before working again."
"Of course, lady." William said, opened the parasol and walked quickly to Ellie.
The eldest lady walked towards the car with satisfaction. As a noble in the wizarding world, it is necessary to know how to use Muggle tools.
The big wizarding families need enough money to pay for all kinds of complicated expenses, and the magical world is too small to satisfy the appetite of these big families.
So despite the ban, all wizarding families will have business in the Muggle world to a greater or lesser extent. This may be too implicit. In fact, 80% of the economic sources of those big families come from the Muggle world.
To get in touch with a world, you must first understand it, which is why Ali Shafik not only has a stable, but also an underground garage. She has a lot of limited edition and customized cars, but unfortunately they are too unique and completely incompatible with her current identity.
"How is my father? Is he angry?"
"I'm afraid not yet. When I went out this morning, the master was angry with the eldest young master."
Aili got into the car and closed the door and asked, "About what?"
"About the new Ravenscar village."
"Ah, I see." Ali nodded, she started the car, "William, can I trust you?"
A strange look flashed across the manservant's face, but he quickly returned to his original respectful look and said, "The master wants me to pay attention to your every move and report to him in time."
"Then did you tell him everything?"
"Only part of it."
Hearing this, Ali looked at her manservant with interest.
"I just said you were traveling in Liverpool, enjoying the beach and sunshine."
"I don't like your cleverness, William. Do you really think my father would only send you to monitor me?"
William, who was originally a little proud, was suddenly speechless.
The eldest lady sighed slightly and said, "One day, William, you will be transferred to serve my brother. Don't let these cleverness make you lose this opportunity. If my father wants to know something, just report it truthfully. If he is so angry that his heart disease relapses, you know where his life-saving medicine is."
"I... I want to stay with you, Miss." William said, with sincerity on his face.
Ellie's mouth curled up slightly, and she reached out and patted William's hand on the car window, "Don't say that, people like to go to higher places, except for some very few freaks. I like you very much, William, but if you follow me, you can only be a butler for the rest of your life."
William took back his hand tactfully, he straightened up, and the moment the parasol left, the dazzling sunlight appeared again.
The young lady narrowed her eyes, and her manservant's voice rang in her ears, "Have a good trip, dear lady." The car drove off the street and headed for a wider road.
What she hadn't finished saying before was that she was "fortunate" to meet one of those very few freaks.
The old site of the Sunset Hand in Hand Nursing Home was not too far away. With the development of the city, the suburbs where it was previously located are now full of high-rise buildings, and the building full of age is hidden among these high-rise buildings.
Ellie parked the car and checked her ID. She does have an identity in the Muggle world - Tanit Nix.
If someone went to check, they would find that in addition to being a police officer at Scotland Yard, she was also the president of a jewelry company. Of course, no one would do that. A fake police officer's ID was enough to knock on someone else's door.
After a few knocks, the paint-chipped door opened, and a sleepy bald man poked his head out. He tried to open his eyes and asked, "We're not open yet. Come back at nine."
"I called." Ellie said, taking out her police ID.
The man covered his mouth and yawned, "So, you made the call at 6:12?"
"Uh-huh, you answered the phone?"
"Unfortunately, it was me. Can you hand me your ID?"
Ellie didn't do that, but looked at the person in front of her and said, "I thought it was a lady who answered the phone."
The man took out a handkerchief and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, but he couldn't help yawning again. He sighed and said, "Now I have another reason to complain about you."
"Don't be so stingy." The eldest lady smiled, "I'm not mocking you, I'm just stating the facts. Your voice sounds like the call of an oriole, which makes people wonder what kind of beauty you are."
"Well~" The bald man was obviously very pleased with the compliment, "I won't mind your rudeness just now, detective."
After that, he closed the door, and after a series of clicks of unlocking, the door opened again, this time completely.
Ellie walked in, and she looked at the thin man in front of her again. He had a well-proportioned figure, not the kind of morbid thinness, but more like the result of long-term exercise.
"I was blinded by the sunlight just now. I didn't expect that there would be a beauty like you in the police station."
"Are you mocking me?"
"Of course not. You don't look like a policeman at all. You look more like someone who walked out of the stage, miss. In addition, except for patrolmen, I rarely see detectives working alone. What about your partner?"
"Like most men, my partner likes to work alone. He doesn't want women like me to be in danger. So, he left a lot of tedious work and rode on his own."
The bald man closed the door gently and took the cigarette box from the shoe cabinet in the hallway. "Aha, stupid man. So how can I help you, detective?"
Ellie walked a few steps inside and saw the reception desk at the end of the porch, which gave her a preliminary understanding of this old building.
