Returning With A Thousand Favors

Chapter 74

“There’s no need. We’ve already found a portrait artist.” Milton rejected Gordon’s good intentions

directly.

“Mr. Charles, did you not hear me clearly? I said this is Mr. Derek, Karson Derek!” Gordon repeated.

“I heard it clearly. Karson Derek is one of the most famous portrait artists. He has helped the police Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

solve many major cases that shocked the entire country.” Milton nodded.

“Since you know how powerful Mr. Derek is, what did you mean by what you said just now?” Gordon

frowned.

“What else could it mean? It’s what it meant. I’ve already found an even more powerful portrait artist.

Mr. Campbell, you should bring Mr. Derek back,” Milton said casually.

However, Milton’s subordinates were not calm. All of them tried their best to gesture to Milton to not act so rashly.

They all thought Milton was obsessed with Marina, so he said so.

Karson was a legend in the police world. It had to be known that it was rare for people like them in a

small place to see a big shot like Karson in their entire lives.

But now, Milton actually wanted to chase Karson out.

If the police chief, Alfred, found out, they would all get fired.

“Heh, what arrogance! I’ve been in this line of work for so many years, but I’ve never heard of anyone

drawing portraits more accurately than me. Bring that person out for me to see so that I can see when

such a genius appeared in our line of work.”

Karson snorted coldly.

Karson had come all the way here to help them solve the case, but this insignificant captain actually

looked down on him?

What a joke!

“It’s me.” With one hand in her pocket, Marina slowly took a step forward.

Gordon and Karson then looked over.

“Heh, I was wondering who it was. It turns out to be a young woman. How many cases have the police

solved with the portraits you drew?” When Karson saw Marina, the mockery on his face became even

stronger.

“Not a single one.” Marina shrugged.

“You haven’t even solved a single case, but you

still dare to say that you’re better than me? Although there’s always someone better than me, experience is also important in our line of work. Although I’m not a legend, I’ve helped the police solve

hundreds of cases in my life so far. May I ask you, young lady, what right you have to say that you’re

better than me?”

Karson was a top figure in this industry. No one in the industry could compare to him.

Naturally, Karson was filled with arrogance.

“Marina, this case is very important. I personally invited Mr. Derek back. Don’t be willful. Quickly

apologize to Mr. Derek and leave this place!” When Gordon heard Marina say that she had never

solved a single case, his expression became a little more serious.

my

“Mr. Charles, what’s wrong with your police station? How dare you let any Tom, Dick, or Harry in? It’s

so noisy that head hurts,” Marina said as she raised her hand to rub her temples.

Marina looked like she was deeply annoyed by them.

“You!” Karson was so infuriated by Marina’s words that his face turned gloomy. Then, he waved his

hand and looked up at Gordon. “Mr. Campbell, I specially made this trip because of you. Since the

Solemwood Police Station is so full of experts, I believe you don’t need my help. I’ll return to

Janeborough now and wait for the good news of you solving the case!”

With that, Karson prepared to leave.

“Mr. Derek!” Gordon hurriedly went forward to stop him.

At this moment, the police chief, Alfred, also heard that Karson had come to their police station. He

hurriedly brought a group of people to welcome Karson.

Unexpectedly, when Alfred arrived, he heard Karson clamoring to leave.

“What’s going on?” Alfred immediately looked up at Milton, who was standing opposite him.

Milton looked like he was totally fearless. He spread his hands and did not respond.

Alfred was so angry that his chest hurt again. Then, Alfred quickly put on a smile and spoke to Karson.

“Mr. Derek, don’t be angry. These men under me are usually like this. I’ll definitely teach them a lesson

later. You have to help us on this case.”

“And who are you?” Karson squinted at the police chief in front of him..

“Mr. Derek, this is the chief of Solemwood Police Station, Alfred Leonard,” Gordon explained.

“Hmph, so it’s Mr. Leonard. What you said just now is really flattering to me. I’m just an old man with

blurred vision. I can’t help you much.” Karson knew Alfred’s identity, but he did not care at all.

After all, even a police chief of a place like Janeborough had to be respectful to Karson, not to mention

a police chief in a remote place like Solemwood.

Karson didn’t care about a mere police chief.

“Mr. Derek, don’t say such things. It’s really flattering to me. It’s all because these men in the police

station are thoughtless. I already heard of your name when I went to the police academy. You’re my

idol. Don’t be angry over these thoughtless men. I’ll definitely teach them a lesson later!”

With that, Alfred glared at Milton angrily.

Karson’s expression softened slightly when he saw Alfred’s respectful attitude.

Then, Karson turned around and looked at Marina at the side, who had always been casual.

“Our industry has always been short of talent. I like

he younger generation who love studying. Although this young lady is

arrogant and unruly, as an elder, I won’t lower myself to her level.

“How about this? Let her draw a portrait with me at the same time. Let’s see whose portrait will be the

key to solving the case!”

“You look to be in your seventies, right?” Upon hearing this, Marina looked Karson up and down.

“Why are you asking this?” Karson frowned tightly.

“I’m trying to say that you’re already so old. It’s better for you not to play in such childish competitions.

Otherwise, I’m afraid you won’t be able to live in peace in your old age if you lose,” Marina said slowly.

“You! You’re really rude. I want to see how capable you are to make me lose!” Karson was so angry

that his face blushed.

Then, Karson turned to look at Alfred. “Please help me prepare a quiet studio!”

06:32 Wed, 21 Jun A

“Alright. Mr. Derek, this way please.” When Alfred heard this, he hurriedly led Karson to the studio

before him.

“This is my studio.” Milton instantly panicked when he heard they would occupy his studio.

“What do you mean by yours? This belongs to the police station. Hurry up and get out of the way!”

Alfred pushed Milton away with his butt, leading Karson into the studio with a flattering smile.

Milton was speechless.

Alfred’s butt was getting better and better.

Then, Milton looked at Marina guiltily. “Choas, we only have one studio in the police station.”
