After Malz left with the jewels from No. 44 White Bird Street, two patrol officers from the Docklands took over the guard duty at 10 Clara Street—until the case was closed by the Shire District Police Station, two officers were needed here every day to guard the place, a task that naturally nobody liked. Before, the Docklands would have refused, but everything changed when Malz became the Sheriff of Shire District.
Because Malz's appointment as sheriff was signed by the Countess of South Los.
Facing the master of South Los, the High Judge, the remaining two crafty old men of the Docklands didn't dare to slack off. Each one dispatched a patrol officer, making it seem as if they were seriously and dutifully completing the guard mission.
And, naturally, the two unlucky patrol officers complained nonstop.
However, soon enough, their conversation shifted to 10 Clara Street—
"What kind of injury could fill the entire room with blood?"
