Read the passage. I had only been a detective for a few months when I was hired to investigate a very odd case. Traveling across town, I soon found myself walking down a dim, dingy street, looking for the law offices of one “L. Creighton, Esq.” Entering the office, a very calm, well-dressed gentleman warmly greeted us. I was surprised to find the office spacious, neat, and clean. Somehow, I had expected to see a cramped, untidy, and dismal space. What did the detective expect to see in the offices of the accountant? a mysterious doctor a large and prosperous office a dangerous warehouse a small, unclean office

Respuesta :

a small and unclean office is the answer 

The right answer is "a small and unclean office ".

The answer to this question expounds, literally in the text. The excerpt that shows this is:  " I was surprised to find the office spacious, neat, and clean. Somehow, I had expected to see a cramped, untidy, and dismal space."

Basically, the character is surprised to find a clean, spacious and tidy place, because he expected exactly the opposite, that is, a small, dirty and untidy desk.
