Bookmark Notes:
That Inspector Javert liked to handle all details of a case himself was known to all, as per his wishes; that he often wished to be informed of seemingly irrelevant matters as well. As such, he first found it neither remarkable nor irritating when the men around the station came to him with all manners of dice and card decks, asking for his opinion on their quality, and begged him to inspect them for potential tampering — Javert had after all begun his career in Paris by closing a large gambling ring.
When, however, a full month had passed and the questions did not let off (indeed, men from other offices began to come to him with their confiscated dice!), his suspicions grew darker; especially as he could not recall the matter going on for so long in any previous life. A carefully put question to the man at the neighboring desk revealed nothing untoward. And Dubois — always the most likely suspect in matters stemming more from sloppy talk than outright malice — professed ignorance to having spread any false rumors regarding Javert’s taste for the dice. So his investigation remained frustrated, until one day, when he exited the public jailed and was suddenly hailed by a pair of cutthroats and gamblers with the following words: “Oi, Inspector! Ain’t fair you only bless the goods of the bleedin’ coppers! A man’s gotta make a livin’ too, don’t he?"
The sentence redacted from this report contains foul language unsuited for innocent minds and those of faint hearts; luckily, Dubois possessed neither.
