摩比神探之西貢生死戀-2
半小時過後，孝恩、傑佛瑞和阿桃三人便約在外面的咖啡廳討論案子。
「你知道嗎？經過了一番調查，我發現那篇部落格的版主了。你猜是誰呀？」孝恩故意問道。
「好啦，我老實招了，那個網站是我經營的！」傑佛瑞說。「可是，裡面寫的除了你是我的助理這段全部都是事實啊！我這麼寫只是為了達到效果，提升點閱率罷了！你既然會介意，我就把那部份改掉不就得了！可是，你是怎麼發現的？」
「這並非難事，」孝恩答道。「這世上除了咱倆能這麼詳細地記錄所有的案子別無他人。還有，作者的筆名JD就是你名字的縮寫啊！你既然要匿名，也想個比較不容易被發現的嘛！」
「好啦，我很抱歉！」傑佛瑞說。「總之，我們先聊聊這次的案子吧！美女，你叫什麼名字啊？」
「我叫阿桃！自從讀過了你的部落格後，我一直想見一見傳說中的名偵探。今天算是美夢成真了！多諾溫先生，想不到，你比想像中更帥呢！」阿桃用著別於之前和孝恩說話的語氣說。
「請叫我阿傑就好！」傑佛瑞臉紅的說。「你可以跟我們陳述一下你遇到的超自然現象嗎？」
「其實不是我親身經歷的，是我遠在越南胡志明市的家人所遇到的事情⋯⋯」於是，阿桃便開始陳述了一番整件事情的來龍去脈。
聽完了阿桃的解釋後，兩名偵探都個別同意要接起這件案子，然而，兩人有著不同的原因。傑佛瑞會同意是因為『阿桃實在太辣了！』，而孝恩則是因為對這起案件非常感興趣。

Playmobil Detectives: Saigon Love Story-2
After half an hour, Jeffrey arrived at Shaun's office and the three people sat down with a coffee in the common room to discuss about their case.
"Guess what, Jeff? I found out the author of that blog. Would you like to know?" asked Shaun sarcastically.
"Fine, I plead guilty. I wrote that blog, ok?" replied Jeff. "Everything else apart from the part about you being my assistant is true. That was only for effect so people will be intrigued. Fine, I'll update it to correct everything, happy? But how did you find out it was me?"
"Well, this isn't rocket science," answered Shaun. "The only person that could've known so much detail about our cases are the two of us. And I didn't write it, so it must be you. Simple! Furthermore, the author's name, John Davis has the same initials as you. If you're trying to conceal your identity, at least make an effort to make it less obvious!"
"Whatever! I'm sorry, ok?" said Jeffrey unapologetically. "Anyways, we shouldn't keep this lovely lady waiting. What's your name?"
"I'm Thao! I've been wanting to meet you after reading that blog and my dream actually came true! OMG, I can't believe I'm actually talking to the great detective Mr Donovan," answered Thao in such a different attitude than what she showed towards Shaun that made the latter quite speechless.
"Please, just call me Jeff," responded Jeff as he gave Shaun the 'dayum-she's-hot-look'. "What is that you'd like to consult us about?"
"Actually, my family back home has been encountering some unexplainable supernatural mystery recently, and I was wondering if you could help me?" replied Thao. "It's happening in my house in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam....."
After Thao had explained her family's encounters, both detectives agreed to help her solve the mystery, however with different reasons of their own. Jeffrey agreed because "Thao's too hot to refuse" to put it in his own words, and Shaun agreed because he was extremely curious about the mystery.

摩比神探之西貢生死戀-1
一個多雲的春天下午，李孝恩正一個人在實驗室裡分析數據；突然，有人敲了敲門。孝恩回頭一看，竟驚見一位身著綠色迷你裙、露臂裝，並且濃妝豔抹，染著一頭金髮的亞裔女大生出現在實驗室門口。
「你就是李孝恩吧？」女子問道。
「是的，」孝恩看著數據說。「妳是我輔導課的學生吧？我有說過，如果要交作業的話，請直接放在我的檔案櫃裡就好，不用親自繳交。」
「我看起來像是物理系的學生嗎？」女子翻著白眼說。「我的名字叫阿桃，我是大一的人類學系的學生。我是來找你老闆的！」
「我的老闆？不好意思，我聽不太懂你的意思。」孝恩一頭霧水地答道。「如果你指的是我的指導教授的話，他現在出差去了。只是我不懂，人類學系的學生要找物理教授做什麼？」
「吼～你是裝傻還是真傻呀？難怪你永遠只能當助理。」阿桃不耐煩地說。「我是要找你的老闆～傑佛瑞・多諾溫先生的。他不是一位專門解決超自然現象的名偵探嗎？我剛好遇到了一件事情要來請教他。你懂了嗎？」
「這樣我明白了！」孝恩說。「沒錯，我和傑佛瑞確實是搭檔，一起解決超自然現象的偵探小組。可是，我不是他的助理，他也不是我的老闆。我們是平等的合夥人關係，我們是一起辦案的。我不理解你是怎麼認為我是助理，還是因為我是亞洲人你就覺得我理應當他的助理。如果真是如此，我為你感到慚愧，你自己身為亞裔不該有如此的偏見。總之，傑佛瑞現在在博物館工作，你有什麼問題告訴我也是一樣的。我們都一起辦案，所以會互相分享情報。」
「哼～我才不信呢！你瞧，這篇部落格不都寫得清清楚楚嗎？」阿桃滑開手機，找出一個部落格網站說。網站上詳細地記載了神探們所有經手過的案子，從一開始的『鬼武士的復仇』到近期的『台北愛情故事』全部都有記載。然而，這個網站偏頗地誇大了傑佛瑞的角色與破案的貢獻。」
「我不知道這篇博客的作者是誰，但這裡面寫的內容並非全屬事實。」孝恩聳了聳肩說。
「我不管，我就是要找多諾溫先生。」阿桃答道。

Playmobil Detectives: Saigon Love Story-1
One cloudy spring afternoon, Shaun Lee was working alone on analyzing data for his experiment in his office. Suddenly, someone knocked on the door and entered an Asian woman wearing a green mini skirt, red camisole, and with heavy make-up and dyed golden hair in a braid.
"Are you Shaun Lee?" enquired the woman.
"Yes, I am," replied Shaun, who barely looked up from his work. "Are you one of my tutorial students? If you're handing in your solutions to problem sheets, just drop them in my pigeon hole. No need to visit my office personally."
"No, excuse me! Do I look like a physics student?" answered the woman, rolling her eyes. "I'm Thao, a first year anthropology student. I'm here to consult your boss."
"My boss? I'm sorry but I don't understand what you mean," responded the bewildered Shaun. "If you mean my supervisor, he's currently away on a trip. But I don't understand why an anthropology student would want to consult my supervisor."
"Are you stupid or something? Do I have to spell everything out? No wonder you're only the assistant!" snapped Thao irritably. "Look, I know that you and your boss - Mr. Jeffrey Donovan are working as detectives to solve supernatural mysteries. I happen to be encountering a mystery myself and would like to consult your boss. Get it, nerd?"
"Okay, I see where you're going, but I need to get some things straight," said Shaun. "Yes, Jeffrey and I are indeed working as amateur supernatural detectives but no, Jeffrey is not my boss nor I his assistant. We're partners and we work together to solve the mysteries. I don't know how you got the impression that I'm his assistant, if it's because I'm Asian so I must be the assistant, then shame on you, because you're Asian too, so you should know better than to have such prejudices! But anyways, Jeffrey is currently working in a museum, so it's the same if you let me know what your problem is."
"I don't believe you! This blog here says it all! See?" said Thao as she showed Shaun a blog on her phone that writes about all the details of all the cases the detectives had solved, right at the beginning from "Revenge of the Ghost Samurais" to the latest case "Taipei Love Story". However, the blog had a biased viewpoint that shaped Jeffrey as the genius detective that solved all the cases with minor help from his assistant Shaun.
"Well, I don't know who wrote this blog but this isn't true," shrugged Shaun.
"I don't care! I insist on seeing Mr. Jeffrey Donovan," insisted Thao.
