Eden Manor has a history of more than five hundred years. Don’t underestimate this manor located outside the city of Zul. Eden Manor has experienced historical changes such as the Dark Ages and the Imperial Civil War, but it still stands today. It is a red mine.
The largest trading point, storage, transit, and large-scale sales of red ore cannot bypass this place.
Compared with Eden Manor, more people like to call this place Happy Garden, because the red ore mainly operated here is not some kind of industrial mineral or jewelry. The main function of red ore is to induce hallucinations. The specially treated red ore is similar to
After contact with the oral mucosa, it will slowly enter the blood system and eventually cause hallucinations. This is actually a natural sedative that can also be used in medical, psychiatric and other fields.
The main buyers of red ore are the aristocracy and the middle class. The scary thing about this thing is that it is not much more harmful to the human body than smoking, at least that is what Eden Manor claims.
In fact, there are considerable risks in taking red minerals in the mouth. Once you get too high and swallow it, you will lose half your life, if not death, and cause irreversible damage to the nervous system.
The empire has repeatedly proposed banning private sales of red ore. However, the MPs supported Eden Manor, probably because more than 97% of the people in the empire cannot afford red ore, and the addiction is not too strong. Red ore is still in use today.
Selling.
As the owner of Eden Manor, Sir Eddie's power in Zur City can be imagined. Under the monarch are the MPs. After feeding those MPs, except for the monarch Harold, he is not afraid of anyone in the Parliament Palace.
People, not to mention middle- and lower-level officials, when they saw him, they would respectfully call him Sir. Joshua Eddy was definitely a man with hands and eyes as bright as the sky.
Eden Manor covers a large area, with maids walking through the fields in the courtyard, hounds in cages barking loudly, trees, lawns, flowers, everything is available in the manor.
In front of the iron gate of the manor, several gunmen raised by the Joshua family were chatting. They had cigarettes in their mouths. In fact, they were not essentially different from the hounds in the cage.
"When will the Cuculin that the master said arrive?"
"I don't know. I'll bring out the hounds later."
"That's not good, we are guests after all."
"This is what the master meant."
"Oh, then we will entertain him well."
An hour later, a total of more than 20 gunmen stood at the door leading seven or eight hounds. These hounds were very quiet after leaving the cage. Their ferocious eyes were because they had eaten people. The red ore business is not about selling sand.
.
An old-fashioned car drove up the gravel road, with trees planted on both sides of the road to block the scorching midday sun.
Crunch~
The car stopped and a puff of smoke came out of the hood. As a guest, it was obviously rude to drive into the manor.
At the gate of the manor, a gunman with good vision looked at the driver's seat. The next moment, he was stunned because the driver was actually a dog!
"Dog, dog is driving."
"What?"
"Don't talk nonsense. Even if the master asks us to 'greet guests' here, we can't offend the guests. They are not small people."
"It's really the dog driving the car, look at that."
Under the astonished eyes of the gunmen, Bubuwang pushed open the cab door, got out of the car and kicked the tires, which clearly meant: "What kind of broken car is this?"
The gunmen in front of the manor looked at me and I looked at you, and they were all a little confused. Fortunately, it didn't take long for them to recover from their confusion, because...the guests they welcomed were somewhat vicious.
If you look at it purely from appearance, Gus is definitely the one with the most brutal appearance. Of course, this is because Reinhardt is more moral. He used his collar to cover the lower half of his face so as not to scare the children. It can be seen from many details
It turns out that Reinhardt is actually a gentle man, as long as he doesn't fight ghosts.
As soon as she got out of the car, Su Xiao knew Sir Eddie's attitude. He had a bunch of gunmen and dogs greet him at the gate of the manor. The meaning was self-evident. This was a show of force.
Hank, the old guy, was very smart and took the lead to walk towards the gate of the manor. Before he could step forward, the hounds began to back away with their tails between their legs. They were not afraid of strangers, but whether or not Huck was considered a human was still to be seen.
Su Xiao took Bubowang and the Wuyan team and walked towards the manor. The gunmen were not completely cowards. After all, they were paid by the Joshua family, so they stood in two rows at the door, holding shotguns.
Staring at Su Xiao and others, however, Su Xiao ignored them.
Sir Eddie was just showing an attitude. Even though Su Xiao was the deputy commander of the execution agency, Sir Eddie, who had the support of parliamentarians, was not afraid of Su Xiao and even wanted to give Su Xiao and others a blow.
Walking on the stone road of Eden Manor, Su Xiao saw a middle-aged man standing on the terrace on the second floor of the castle from a long distance. There was an old man behind him, and several maids behind him.
The middle-aged man is Sir Eddie. He has a beard and his hair is slicked back. He is not a paunchy figure. Sir Eddie has the charm of a middle-aged man, but as a drug lord in the ghost world, he has the kind of personality that has always been with him.
The ruthlessness revealed in his bones meant that he was not an easy person to get along with.
"Deputy Commander Cuculin, the last time we met was at a dinner half a year ago."
Sir Eddie walked down the stage with a smile on his face, but he bit the word 'vice' very hard.
"Did we meet half a year ago?"
"Uh~"
Sir Eddie's steps slowed down. He was obviously choked by Su Xiao. The old man behind him frowned and touched Sir Eddie's back with his thumb from an angle that no one could see.
Sir Eddie's expression quickly softened, and he took a drag of the pipe in his hand. Not only was he not angry, but he was more enthusiastic.
"Deputy Commander Cuculin will certainly not remember a small role like me. Let's not talk about this. Deputy Commander Cuculin is here. Please come inside."
Seeing Sir Eddie's attitude, a smile appeared on Su Xiao's face. If the other party was angry just now, Hank, who had been prepared for a long time, would immediately intensify the conflict. Then it would not be lunch, but a search. Su Xiao had prepared a search warrant.
Well, it's just that the people behind Sir Eddie are very difficult to deal with, and there is no excuse, not even with a search warrant.
A group of people entered the castle of the manor. In the side hall, there were sumptuous delicacies on the dining table. As the owner of the castle, Sir Eddie was of course sitting in the first place. On his right were Su Xiao and others. Of course, Bubo Wang was also in the front seat.
, and on the left side of Sir Eddie are his family members.
Sir Eddie's wife, his biological sister, has passed away. In this kind of family that has been passed down for countless generations, incest marriage is normal. Sir Eddie's eldest daughter, second son, and three younger daughters are all present.
No one spoke at the dinner table. Su Xiao and others just leaned on the seats and watched Sir Eddie's family eating, which made Sir Eddie's face look even more ugly.
"Deputy Commander Cuculin, you invited me to have lunch, just to watch our family enjoy lunch?"
Sir Eddie chewed the veal in his mouth, and blood-red juice flowed from the corners of his mouth and fell on his beard. If the guys at the dinner table hadn't looked so vicious, he would have slapped the table and fallen out.
"Reinhardt, don't be restrained."
While Su Xiao was talking, she picked up the tableware. Reinhardt simply picked up the steak on the plate, pulled open the collar, raised his head and put the steak into his mouth.
Gulu.
Swallow it in one mouthful, and you can't chew it carefully without lips.
"..."
Sir Eddie was obviously shocked by Reinhardt's appearance and appearance, and his little daughter burst into tears.
"Sir Eddie, there is no need to keep beating around the bush. Where is the ghost? Or which level of the castle is it on?"
