"It's no coincidence that the Ring Warlock of the Zhengshen Church entrusted me to help her sneak into here."
The other party could sense that Shade had used thaumaturgy from a floor away, so Shade had no doubt that the other party knew about Miss Bayas, so he did not hide it.
"That second-level sorceress from the Church of the Sun? Young people are always like this."
Sure enough, Shade's guess was correct.
"What you want to do has nothing to do with me. What you and your friends did at Lakeview Manor has nothing to do with me. Detective, let's get back to business. I'm actually looking for you this time just for a private commission."
"Please tell me and I will try my best to complete it. Thank you very much for helping me and my friends leave at Lakeview Manor."
Shade said cautiously.
"It's not necessary if you want to thank me. It's just a small matter. As for today's matter, it is still related to the blood of mercury. It just happens that they have another thing in their hands that I am interested in."
Shade pursed his lips, wondering whether he should mourn for those unlucky guys.
"This time it's just a poet-level relic. There is no need to rob it. I have already negotiated with the other party. Tomorrow, that is, the handover at midnight on Friday, you can pick it up for me."
Shade hesitated for a moment before asking:
"I'm sorry, why me... No, I'm not trying to shirk it, but what I mean is that for a noble person like you, there should be no shortage of people who can do things under you."
"I don't want the other party to know my true identity, and you are the least related to me among the ring warlocks that I think I can trust, and you are very reliable and very capable... No, I don't care about Hu
I know nothing about the affairs of Jing Manor. I am not always paying attention to the third floor. It is not that I will take action once you fail. It is not that I have already reached the third floor when you were thrown into the banquet hall. You don’t have to doubt it.
at this point."
She actually chuckled as she said that. She really knew what Shade did that night.
"Um......"
In fact, Shade should have thought that the strongest ring warlock present at that time was not Mrs. Lasoya or the Silver Eyed One after that. The five of them and the Mercury Blood group did so many things that night.
, no one knows that all this is in the eyes of this woman.
"Detective, the reward this time is 10 pounds. In addition, I can also give you some free information. Don't think it's less. After all, this matter is not difficult."
Shade didn't feel less, but he felt that the other party's understanding of money was very different from his own. Miss Mia, who loves cats, only received this amount for little Mia's alimony.
He heard the sound of tea being poured from behind the door, and he guessed that the beautiful black-haired maid was here this time.
"I accept the commission, I just hope there will be no accidents. After all, it is mercury blood."
"There will be no accidents. The silver-eyed man is seriously injured and the entire organization is being pursued by the Righteous God Church. They don't dare to do anything else. Besides, calling the evil god within the city limits has made them angry.
There are more than just correspondence students from the Orthodox Church and the academy among Besk’s ring magicians.”
A woman's voice came from behind the door, followed by the sound of drinking tea, and then the conversation continued.
"As for free information, let me think about what you can know... Do you know the [Blood Spirit School]?"
"I've heard that it seems to be an ancient organization that pursues the evolution of blood."
This is what I heard from the doctors on Tuesday morning.
"[Blood Spirit School] is indeed related to [Mercury Blood], but don't worry, they are busy with another big thing in the New World. This time they just sent out minions. After the accident of an eight-ring warlock at Lakeview Manor,
He was sent to Tobesk to help Mercury Blood, who is probably still on the way now, and seems to be carrying a great relic. You seem to know a lot about the [Blood Spirit School]... very ancient
, they participated in some important things in the distant era, and they are one of the few people in this era who know the ancient secrets and are crazy about it."
"What ancient secret? Oh, I know, you can't tell me."
Shade said, knowing that he had made a mistake.
"Why can't I tell you?"
The lady inside the door smiled and said:
"The top leaders of the academy and the church know these secrets, and I admire you very much, so I think you will know it sooner or later. This is related to the fall of the old gods that started at the end of the third era and lasted until the fifth era. The Blood Spirit School's
History is much longer than common perception. No matter how many things you have, you cannot know. After all, knowledge has weight."
"Thank you for your knowledge."
Shade said, his vigilance against the [Blood Spirit School] increased again. He has not yet met the other party, but he already understands how troublesome the other party is.
Then, as expected, it was the maid with long black hair who walked out of the door and gave Shade, who was sitting on the sofa, an envelope. Inside was detailed information about tomorrow night's transaction and a 10-pound note.
Shade took a look and saw that the trading location was on the Disk Bridge in the city. The Disk Bridge connects the Terrarel River across the city of Tobesk. It is a tower bridge with a steel cable structure and is walking distance from Saint Teresa Square.
30 minutes.
"Can I know the specific information of that relic? So that I can confirm that what the other party gave is not a forgery."
he asked again.
"The poet's relic - [Mary Jane's makeup box] can prepare any cosmetics that the user has come into contact with, but it is only for women. After you get the goods, go home directly, and I will let Tifa, who is mine,
Let the maid get it. I don't come here often, this is just a place to stay."
"Okay, ma'am."
Shade secretly complained about the extravagance and waste of wealthy aristocratic women, but he still remained respectful on the surface.
"Ma'am, actually I want to ask about Mr. Lawrence who disappeared here... My companion came here for this matter. I hope I didn't offend you."
"It doesn't matter. This is not my property. You can do whatever you want. As for the missing person you mentioned, let me take a look... There is residual blood in the third room on the left side of the stairs on the first floor. Your eyes can
I see. It’s your business to track down the blood of mercury, but don’t delay tomorrow night’s transaction because of this, and don’t lead the ring warlock team of the Righteous God Church to ambush the transaction because of this.”
"I am an academic ring magician, and I will not interfere in such things easily."
Shade said, getting up and wanting to say goodbye, but "the lady" still had something to say:
"Just now you came to see me as an excuse because you have three Rhodes cards with special rules in your hand?"
Her voice sounded lazy, not as rigid as when she was talking about business just now.
"Yes."
Shade replied softly that he didn't mean to lie. Although Founder Silver Moon was expensive, based on his experience with the lady in the door, he believed that the other party would not rob him. Moreover, lying would be easily exposed.
If it was before the commission just now, he would probably have considered whether to take out [Founder Silver Moon]. But this meeting once again confirmed to him that "that lady" is still a principled person.
As for whether the opponent's bottom line of principles would be breached by the high-priced playing cards, although Shade was not sure, he did not think that the opponent would suddenly commit murder and robbery.
The lady inside the door didn't speak anymore, and the black-haired maid came out. Shade handed her [Ancient Fairy Tale·Match Girl], [Northern City·Lengshui Port City] and [Founder·Silver Moon] to her,
The black-haired maid was stunned when she saw the latter's card. She raised her head and glanced at Shade, but turned back to the small room inside the study without saying anything.
"I don't like Rhodes cards. I collect special cards just for..."
The lady said casually while waiting, but her voice stopped abruptly:
