Three Character Girl

the screams of Madame Conrad's servant

"I understand," said Commissioner Saga.

"And he was invited here this weekend - "

"So we can say" we can observe it at close range."

"Persian. Maybe he attacked you." Lord Alloway is embarrassed. Commissioner Saga continued,

"Say, milor', is it possible that he heard about your talk and the Admiral?"

"Indeed," Lord Alloway admitted.

"Sir Harry said, 'And now is the time for our submarines! Let's get to work!' that kind. The others have already left this place, but Mrs Conrad is back to pick up the book."

"I understand," Commissioner Saga said solemnly.

"Milor', it's late at night, but it's urgent. I want to question all the members of this house. Soon, if possible."

"Of course it can be worked on" Lord Alloway responded. "His father, we don't want this to spread any further. Of course Lady Juliet Weardale and Leonard are exceptions - but Mrs Conrad, if she is innocent, can misunderstand. Perhaps you can say that an important document is missing, without detailing what the document is. Or, whatever the hell it is."

"Sliced as I would like to propose," Commissioner Saga responded with a beaming face.

"Actually, these three people did not need to be told. Sorry Monsieur Admiral, the wives love - "

"It's okay" Sir Harry said.

"All the women talked about rumors. I hope Juliet can talk more and reduce her bridge. But women are so now. Never be happy if you don't dance or gamble. I'll wake Juliet and Leonard. Agreed, Alloway?"

"thank you. I'll call the French waiter. M. Commissioner Saga would definitely like to meet him. Then he could wake his master. I'll panic now. In the meantime, I'll have Fitzroy here."

Fitzroy was a thin and pale young man, wearing glasses hanging from his nose, and his facial expression was cold. His confession was practically the same as that Lord Alloway had told us.

"What do you think personally, Mr Fitzroy?" In response, he shrugged his shoulders.

"There is no doubt someone who knows the matter is waiting for an opportunity outside. He could see what was going on inside through the window and sneaked in as I left this study. Too bad, Lord Alloway didn't chase him when he saw him leave." Commissioner Saga let Fitzroy with his convictions. Instead he asked,

"You believe the French servant's confession - that he saw a ghost?"

"Well, barely, M. Commissioner Saga!"

"I mean - that he really thinks so?"

"Oh, about that. I can't be sure. It sure looks a bit confusing. Put his hands on his head."

"Aah!" commissioner Saga said as if he had found something.

"Really so" - she must be beautiful." "I didn't pay special attention to it" Fitzroy said firmly.

"I guess you didn't see her employer?"

"Actually yes. He was on the balcony, on the top step and calling his servant - 'L?she!' Then I saw him. Of course he went in again."

"On the top floor," Commissioner Saga said with a frown.

"I realized this loss was very unpleasant for me - or rather so, if only Lord Alloway had not coincidentally seen that person leave. Anyway I don't mind if you want to search my room - and myself."

"You really want to be checked?"

"Surely."

What Commissioner Saga would say in response Rani did not know. Just at that second Lord Alloway appeared to tell us that the two female guests and Leonard Weardale had gathered in the sitting room.

Both women were wearing proper home clothes. Mrs Conrad is a beautiful thirty-five-year-old woman, golden-haired, and prone to embonpoints.

Lady Juliet Weardale must have been forty years old, tall and very thin, dark-skinned, still beautiful, her hands and feet good, while her demeanor was restless and lethargic. His son was somewhat feminine in face; in stark contrast to his abusive, honest, and friendly father.

Commissioner Saga delivered a brief pleasantry, as we have agreed. Then he explained his desire to know if anyone had heard or seen anything that night, which might have helped us. Turning to Mrs Conrad, Commissioner Saga asked her to explain what she had done that night.

"I'll try.... I went upstairs and rang the bell to call my waiter. Since he didn't show up as well, I went out to call him. I heard him talking on the stairs. After she brushed my hair, I let her go - she was very tense. I read for a while, then sleep."

"And you, Lady Juliet?"

"I went up and went to sleep. I'm tired of tonight."

"What about your book, honey?" mrs Conrad asked with a sweet smile.

"Book?" Lady Juliet's face flushed.

"Yes. When I told L?onie's gone, you're climbing the stairs. You just went to the sitting room to pick up a book, as you say."

Tightly Lady Juliet squeezed her hand.

"You hear the screams of Mrs Conrad's servant, milady?"

"No-no."

"It's weird - because then you should be in the sitting room."

"I heard nothing" Lady Juliet's voice sounded more resolute. Commissioner Saga turns to young Leonard.

"Monsieur?"

"Not doing anything. I went up and slept." Commissioner Saga stroked his chin.

"Well! I'm afraid no one can help me. Mesdames and Monsieur, I am sorry - I am so sorry to have awakened you to this trivial matter. I ask you to forgive me." With a gesture of hand and an apology Commissioner Saga let them out. Then he returned with the French maid. A beautiful girl whose eyes were a bit wild. Alloway and Weardale were out with the two women.

"Well, Mademoiselle," said Commissioner Saga coldly, "let's tell the truth. Don't fabricate. Why are you screaming at the stairs?"

"Ah, Monsieur, I saw a tall body figure - dressed in white from head to toe - "Commissioner Saga held him by shaking his index finger vigorously.

"Didn't I just say don't make it up. I will guess. He kissed you, didn't he" M. Leonard Weardale, I mean." "Eh, bien, Monsieur. What does a kiss mean?"

"In such a situation, a kiss is perfectly natural" said Commissioner Saga.

"I'm alone or Rani - but let's say what happened."

"He appeared behind me and caught me. Of course I was surprised to scream. If only I had known, I wouldn't have screamed - but he approached me like a cat. Then came M. le Secr?tairean. M. Leonard ran upstairs. What can I say" Especially to a jeune homme comme ?a - tellement comme il faut" Mafoi, I made up no ghosts."

"All is clear already" exclaimed Commissioner Saga cheerfully.

"Then you go up to Madame's room, your employer. By the way, which room is it?"

"At the end there, Monsieur. Over there."

"Then it's right above the study. Well, Mademoiselle, I won't hold you back much longer. And la prochaine fois, don't scream anymore." After escorting him out, Commissioner Saga walked in with a smile.

"A fascinating case, no, Rani" Rani starts to have a little small idea. Vous et?"

"What Leonard Weardale does on the ladder" Rani dislikes him, Commissioner Saga. He's really a young bandot, Rani had to call him that."

"Rani agrees with you, buddy."

"Fitzroy looks honest." "Lord Alloway is clearly adamant about it."

"Even so, there is something in his behavior - "

"He's almost too good, isn't he" Rani herself felt. On the other hand, Mrs Conrad was clearly a bit dubious."

"And his room was just above the study," said Rani pondered as she continued to stare at Commissioner Saga sharply. He shook his head while smiling thinly.

"No, my friend, Rani does not believe that the pure white woman will come down through the chimney or from the balcony." As Commissioner Saga spoke, the door opened. How shocked Rani is! Lady Juliet Weardale in.

" Commissioner Saga," he said slightly breathlessly, "can I speak alone with you?"

"Milady, Rani is a part of me. You can talk in front of him without caring. Please sit down, milady." Lady Juliet sat down while continuing to address her views to Commissioner Saga.

"What I have to say - it's a bit difficult. You handle this. If - the file is returned, will the problem end" I mean, can the files be returned without any questions?" Commissioner Saga looked at him sharply.

"Let me understand you, Madame. The files will be handed over to me - that's right" And I have to return them to Lord Alloway, with the record that he didn't ask me where I got the files from?" Lady Juliet nodded.

"That's what I meant. But I have to be sure there won't be - publicity."

"I guess Lord Alloway personally doesn't want any publicity" Commissioner Saga explained with a grim face.

"Then, you agree?" he exuberantly.

"Propay a minute, milady. It depends on when you turn those files over to me."

"soon." Commissioner Sagaris Saga glanced upwards, at the wall clock.

"When exactly?"

"About ten minutes" whispered the woman.

"I agree, milady." Hurry up he comes out. Rani put my lips together to make a whistle.
