Chapter 64: Full itinerary
"Dear Mr. Sherin Hill,
"Hello, I'm Melissa Moretti.
"As for the follow-up plan we discussed at the World Expo, I have hired a professional lawyer to draw up an investment and technology shareholding contract. Please take time to come to King's College of Backlund University of Technology on the morning of this Tuesday (April 25). Talk to us in Room 1416 on the 4th floor. The lawyer and I will be waiting for you in the office.
"Looking forward to seeing you again. May the goddess protect you.
"Melissa Moretti"
Igna read the letter carefully and found that Melissa's letter was signed last Friday, and the postmark of the delivery was yesterday, that is, Sunday.
Melissa's handwriting on the stationery is clean and neat, but it also has a feminine softness.
There is also an invitation letter signed with Melissa. I think that you should pass this invitation letter before you can enter the school.
After reading the letter carefully, Igna folded it properly and put it away.
Immediately afterwards, Igna took out the calendar on the table and compared it, only to find that his schedule for the past two days was indeed full.
If he is going to visit Melissa tomorrow, he will make an appointment with a lawyer today.
Under such circumstances, his originally planned writing task could not be completed.
Instead, go to the bar once. And, after completing the lawyer appointment, there is an Extraordinary gathering to attend tonight.
"It's really busy enough." Igna laughed.
But even so, he packed himself up quickly. After simply divination whether to signal to go out, and the revelation that "the desired result can be obtained, and things will be completed smoothly", Igna went out with peace of mind.

He went to the Backlund Lawyers Association non-stop on the railroad carriage.
In fact, when I first discussed with Melissa to meet again, Ignatius already had a draft for who the lawyer wanted to hire, but he didn't have the lawyer's contact information now.
Because, Detective Sherlock Moriarty only mentioned "lawyer Jurgen who I worked with". Ignatius doesn't yet know which lawyer in Ergan is located.
Jurgen isn't a common name, but it's also not uncommon. Backlund is too big. In theory, there should be a lot of "Jurgen".
Sure enough, as expected, the staff of the Bar Association showed a somewhat embarrassed smile when they heard that Igner wanted to find a "Jurgen" lawyer.
"According to the registered lawyers' register, there are a total of 7 lawyers named Jurgen in Backlund. Which one are you looking for?"
"Can I look at their resumes?" Igna asked calmly without any chagrin.
"Of course you can." The staff took out the resume of Qiyu Ergan.
The resumes are printed with beautiful cursive fonts on the resumes of each lawyer located in Ergen, including which teacher they studied, which university they graduated from, what law firm they joined, their work experience and years, and their main achievements. Overall it seems very organized.
It's just that the homogeneity of resumes is serious. Except for universities and firms, the main performance seems to be similar.
Igna, who is not a legal professional, can't see the difference here. But it didn't bother him, he played with the crystal ball in the windbreaker.
After pretending to look through the resume, Igna used the quill pen and notepad provided by the firm to copy the names of the lawyers in Ergen and marked the numbers 1 to 7 on the back. Then, pretending to look through the resume again.
"I'll go to the bathroom first." Igna smiled at the staff in charge of receiving him.
"Okay." The staff had no doubts about Igna's behavior.
And Igna also came to the bathroom with the sticky note you just copied. He now finds that the bathroom is really a good place for divination to some extent, private enough and not disturbed. No matter what question you whisper in the bathroom, no one cares.
Igna took out the crystal ball from the trench coat.
He placed the note he had just transcribed next to the crystal ball, and whispered his question, "A lawyer who worked with Detective Sherlock Moriarty."
The stars of the crystal ball flickered in the seventh house.
Igna whispered to the crystal ball: "Thank you."
Coming out of the bathroom, he came to the front desk again and took down the name of the seventh lawyer, Jurgen Cooper, senior solicitor. (Note 1)

"Hello, sir." The young man in his early twenties stretched out his hand to Igna, "May I ask what business you want to consult."
Igna looked at the lawyer in front of him, who was wearing a long black double-breasted dress popular among the gentlemen, a half-height silk top hat, and a banquet-like bow tie, and took his outstretched hand.
"I need to review an investment contract." Igna said straight to the point. "Lawyer Jurgen, according to your fee rate, how much do you need to pay for such a contract?"
"It is generally determined according to the total amount of the contract and the degree of difficulty." Jurgen's lawyer replied.
"The total amount is 1,200 gold pounds. There are also some terms of technology investment. The other party has already found a lawyer to draw up a contract. I need a lawyer to review it with me." Igna explained briefly.
"Time? Where?" Lawyer Jurgen asked solemnly.
"Nine o'clock tomorrow morning. Backlund University of Technology." Igna thought for a moment.
Jurgen thought for a while before saying, "Sir, you are lucky, I just have time tomorrow morning."
"The fee for reviewing the contract is £15. In addition, you are required to pay my fare. If the investment contract is not suitable and needs to be amended, you will have to pay me additional fees."
"Okay." Igna thought for a while and felt that the fee was reasonable, and said, "See you at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, I will wait for you at the gate of King's College of Bertrand University of Technology."
"Okay." Lawyer Jurgen said, "No problem."
This is really a fast-paced transaction... But the main purpose for him to come to Jurgen's lawyer was not a transaction. After all, he trusted Melissa very much.
And whether a contract is beneficial to him, he does not need a lawyer to help him judge.
This time, he mainly wanted to see the co-lawyer of Detective Sherlock Moriarty.
"It was Detective Sherlock Moriarty who recommended me to come to you," Igna said proactively.
Jurgen Cooper was stunned, a little surprised: "Did Mr. Moriarty come back from a vacation in Midsea County?"
Igna said without blushing: "I met him in Jianhai County before. When he told me about his experience in Backlund, he said that you were his co-lawyer."
"Yes." Jurgen Cooper nodded. "Next time you see Mr. Moriarty, remember to say hello to Mr. Sherlock Moriarty for me. Grandma mentions him occasionally, Brody. I miss him too."
"Okay." Igna nodded, he felt that he could still do it.
But...who is Brody? Sounds like a masculine name...better not ask more.
"Sir, would you like to talk to me about Detective Sherlock Moriarty?" Igna asked casually.
"I'd love to. But are you willing to pay for the consultation, sir?" Lawyer Jurgen Cooper pointed at his watch and said, "It's still my working hours."
"Hahaha." Ignat chuckled twice, wondering whether lawyer Jurgen was implicitly refusing, or was really asking about relevant matters seriously.
"Then I won't disturb you at work." Igna decided to leave.
Anyway, there is still a chance to ask again tomorrow. Tomorrow is "hire time".
After solving the lawyer's related matters Igna came to the Brave Bar on Iron Gate Street in the "Becklund Bridge Area".
According to Miss Hugh, Igna found the owner of the bar, "Old Man" Ian.

Note 2: The content of the investment contract discussed in this chapter mainly refers to the Faceless Man in Volume II, Chapter 18 "Loss"
In addition, after thinking that the previous bid was too low, it is more reasonable to change it to 1,200 pounds, after all, it is a tracked steam locomotive. (The funds from Igna have also been changed to a total of 1500. After all, he is also a direct descendant of the Angel family or the only son of the branch in charge of important books. It cannot be too shabby.) 1200 gold pounds is approximately equal to the current 1 million.
