Chapter 48 The Book of Greed

Soon after Joshua left, Claire came back, but Claire stood at the door, holding the door open and looking at Ahs with only half of her face exposed.

"Did you do something with that guy?" Claire asked, glaring at Ahs.

"No, I don't have that kind of hobby." Ahs shook his head repeatedly.

"If I knew you were doing that kind of thing at home, I would kill you."

"Okay, okay, haven't you said everything?"

Claire walked into the house and closed the door.

"So, what did you do? It took a full eight hours." Claire asked.

"...He knows that I am a time traveler." After a moment of silence, Ahes said, "To be precise, he probably doesn't understand the concept of a time traveler."

"How did he know? You two are completely strangers to each other, aren't you?"

"When I used the trade with the devil, I asked the demon about returning to my original world. The main purpose of Joshua's pervert openly trading with the devil was not to make money, but to steal other people's questions in order to satisfy his knowledge.

This is how other people's secret hobbies are exposed." Ahes rubbed his head with a headache and said, "The reason why he came this time is to ask me about the history of my original world. The history of my original country is very long.

Yeah, it’s five thousand years long, so eight hours is considered a short time.”

"Five thousand? It's really a terrible history, but let's not talk about that for now. Here is a letter from you." Claire picked up an envelope and said.

"Letter? Whose is it?"

"The Gardner Family."

"That's it, just throw it away."

"I think you should take a look." Claire said, "A few days ago, Daniel Gardner was assassinated and died."

Hearing this, Ahes was not surprised.

"You told Rui the truth and asked her to do it." Claire said when she saw this.

"Of course, isn't this the best of both worlds? It not only avenges Rui Yi himself, but also vents his anger on the original Ahes."

"Well, I don't care what you think. What's important is that the family now lacks a leader and someone to inherit the family property." Claire said, "I quit the Gardner family before your grandfather passed away, so it's none of my business.

But you, you were only verbally expelled from the Gardner family by Daniel. In theory, you still have to go back and participate in the competition for family property."

"What, I don't want it. Who wants to go back? I don't care about the Gardner family's money." Ahes said indifferently. With the income brought by cigarettes and novels, Ahes can't say much now.

With hundreds of millions of karks, the catering industry that was originally planned to be developed can be eliminated.

"Speaking of which, if I don't do it, who will inherit it?"

"Usually it's the eldest son in the family. Of course, the tradition of the Gardner family is for several children to compete."

"I see." Ahes looked thoughtful, "I changed my mind."

"What?"

"I'm going to compete, and then donate all the money, and then sell the Gardner family to Douglas." Ahes slapped the table and said, "Haha, in short, I just want to make them uncomfortable.

"

Claire didn't say anything. This was not the first time that Ahers had done such an inappropriate thing. Claire didn't think that the Gardner family could compete with Ahers.

Before setting off, Ahes thought about the current heirs of the Gardner family besides himself.

Rex Gardner, the eldest son and the eldest son of the family, was killed by me in Bill Coster some time ago.

Sean Gardner, the second son of the family, accidentally touched his hand of ashes when he was bullying him as a child. In the end, he cut off his right arm in time to save his life. Some time ago, he was still alive for stealing a medal.

He was punished by the Milton family. In the end, the Milton family did not call the police. Otherwise, stealing the King's Choice Medal would be enough to make Sean lose his head.

Ewinnie Gardner, the eldest daughter in the family, is the only one who is relatively normal among these monsters. There are not many images of Ewinnie in her previous memory, so Ahs doesn't know her very well.

Aaliyah Gardner, Ahes's younger sister, was born from Ahes' stepmother. She seems to have facial paralysis. At least Ahes has never seen her show any expression in his memory, and she speaks very little, which is different from his own.

Communication is even more pitiful.

Keith Gardner, Ahs's younger brother, was also born to his stepmother. He is only nine years old this year and has nothing to say.

If nothing else goes wrong, if he doesn't go, the heir apparent should be Ewinnie or Sean.

"Ahs, you actually dare to come. I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you!" As soon as he arrived at the door of the Gardner family, Sean rushed towards Ahs like crazy.

Came over.

"That's enough." Ewinnie grabbed Sean's collar to stop him.

"Let him go and see if he dares to come over." Ahes stood motionless, looking at Sean and said.

Sean's momentum suddenly disappeared. Eweny also knew what kind of person Sean was, so she pulled Sean and walked inside.

"Go in, everyone else is already here." Iwinnie said without looking back. Knowing Ahes's current achievements, Ewinnie would not dare to bully Ahes as casually as before.

Ahes also followed Ewinnie and Sean into the villa.

In the hall, Clarisse sat in the middle position, which was originally Daniel's position and will also be the heir's position in the future.

Case was sitting on a chair nearby, dozing off and watching a few people.

Sean gave Ahs a fierce look and sat next to Clarisse. Ewinnie sat opposite Sean. Ahs looked at it and simply sat next to Aaliyah.

, I don’t want to sit next to Sean.

Arya is still the same as Claire described, looking straight ahead with an expressionless face, like a doll.

"Now that everyone is here, I'll get down to business." Clarisse coughed twice and said.

"You are so young. He looks about thirty years old. That guy Daniel is over fifty. Sure enough, if you have money, you can eat young grass." Ahs thought as he glanced at Clausius.

road.

"I am entrusting an investigation into the death of Daniel. I predict that it should be an assassination by a killer. In that case, it will be difficult to find out the result, so I decided to organize the matter of the new leader of the family before Daniel's funeral." Crowe

Reese said, "Each of you has your own advantages and disadvantages, so I will not favor anyone. This time I will use the contract trial to make the result the fairest."

With that said, Claris took out a contract book from under the table. When he saw the contract book, Ahs's eyes suddenly widened.

Written on it is the Book of Greed.

Isaiah told himself that he met a time traveler when he went to find the Book of Greed for a trial. The Book of Greed is a powerful forbidden book, and countless people have died so far.

During the trial.

Now why is this book here?

"I bought this from the black market for five million Kraken coins," Clausius said.

"What, what did you say, five million Kraken coins?!" Sean said in shock after hearing this number.

"It's not a loss at all to buy this contract for five hundred Kraken coins. There's no need to be so surprised." Clarisse said calmly, "Although I don't know who passed his trial."

"So, this time I want you to sign a contract with this book and conduct a trial. Those who succeed in the trial can obtain all the property and status of the Gardner family."

"Are you kidding? This is a forbidden book. If you fail the test, you will die." Ewinnie couldn't help but say.

"Because of this, you are free to choose whether to participate. Those who choose to withdraw will give up the qualification to inherit the family property." Claris said, "If everyone gives up, then all the property of the Gardner family will be transferred to

To Ahs's men."

"Oh?" Hearing this, Ahes was a little surprised, "Why."

"You are the best among them, there is no doubt about it." Claris said, "So, who wants to participate in this trial."

"I want to participate!" Sean said directly. Watching Ahs take away the family's property in vain was even more uncomfortable than killing Sean.

"Okay, then I'll join in," Ahes said with a smile upon seeing this.

"...I give up." After a moment of hesitation, Ewinnie said.

"So, where are you, Aaliyah?" Finally, Claris looked at Aaliyah.

"Participate." Arya responded briefly.
