Two more cases have been brought to me for investigation by people who have heard of my success with our Sharon; somewhat to my irritation they are upon similar lines of Sharon’s earlier requests – concerns of infidelity, no less – but they shall pay handsomely. Indeed one “Tracy” took me around to her house and within fifteen minutes of entry into her premises I found… well, let’s call it a used male contraception device. I solved the case with such haste in fact that I hesitated to request payment for it – but she offered it anyway.

The second one was perhaps stranger; a man – Paul, let’s call, him – had asked me to investigate the infidelity of his partner – who I found out was another man! And I was stunned that he showed only pride and grace in his affliction – a vast cavern’s distance from the mores I am used to where I am from. Paul suspected his ‘partner’ of engaging in particular debaucheries of the night at some cabaret establishments, though he made his partner promise not to, since Paul declared his intent to ‘settle down’ with this man – even, though I am astonished to hear it, marry the man. I knew of men who were tried and sentenced to labor in Ireland for even entertaining such thoughts! 

I still have not decided whether or not to take this case, though nothing more palpable and intriguing arises. Oddly I had thought of myself as a man rather unaffected by mores of social conduct, but this case has taught me differently. Perhaps it shall serve as good teaching of the morality which has evidently progressed along with the society around it.
