Chapter Sixty-Four: The Afterhand
When Li Mochen returned to the bright world, it was only six o'clock in the morning. He first came back to the apartment, put the saber-toothed tiger meat in the refrigerator, cleaned up his personal hygiene, and then went out again to go to school with William Jacques.
The latter felt sorry for Li Mochen, who had found a good job in a newly opened nightclub the day before yesterday, with an hourly wage of three gold dong per hour and a tip of no less than forty gold dong per day, which was not much worse than Cai Kee Chinese restaurant. Originally, there was still a place there, but unfortunately Li Mochen didn't go with him, so he missed the battle.
In addition, this one also expressed envy, jealousy and hatred for Li Mochen who entered the third round in an unexpected way on Friday.
Although William also won the lower bracket yesterday, he still needs at least seven hard-fought games to qualify for the round of 64.
"Thanks to you, the chances of our club getting team points have increased again. I guess our president will most likely send someone to guide you, and he doesn't want to give up hope at all. β
"Really?"
At this time, Li Mochen's eyes were slightly hesitant.
I hope that it will not be the Angela Medici who will guide him this time - Li Mochen will never tell William Jacques that he had a dream yesterday again, and the object is still this black-haired girl.
That's why he needs to go home to deal with personal hygiene, in Alyssa's house, he doesn't dare to do too much, and he has to use the power of magic to cover up the smell to avoid being detected by Alyssa,
He really couldn't imagine what would happen if Alyssa learned about it, and it would definitely be laughed out of his front teeth by the latter, and it would be a shame for his life.
Forget it, if it's still Angela Medici, then just refuse.
Li Mochen can put down the shelf and learn something from the children of this famous nobleman. But if it's not proportional to the price paid, then he'd rather not.
"By the way, William, what else have you heard about the Black Prison Skeleton and Bloody Fang in the neighborhood recently?"
"There's a lot of news, some people say that the Black Prison Skeletons are over, and some people say that they are hiding. But yesterday in the Wide Corner Alley next to us, five more people died, three of them from the Bloodfangs. β
William shrugged, "I guess the Black Prison Skeleton won't be over that soon, but that's none of my business." The lesson from last time was already very painful, Miss Louise, she thinks very highly of me, and I want to calm down and learn from Coach Inez. He said that my talent is hopeful that I will be selected by the NHSAA, and even if I don't succeed, I can achieve something in the magic class. Before he was forty-five years old, he was a powerful outlaw who had reached level 12, and he only lost his professional rank after being seriously injured, I believe in his vision. So, these gangsters have nothing to do with me. β
Li Mochen suddenly felt relieved, he pondered for a moment, and still gave a vague warning: "William, it has nothing to do with it, but you still have to be careful when you should be cautious, I think you are right, this turmoil may affect the neighborhood." β
"yes, that's how I feel, so I'm careful every time I come out. β
William nodded sympathetically: "Actually, I'm okay there, after all, it's a residential area, so the number of police cars patrolling the street has increased by three more than usual." It's the apartment you're living in now, and that's where it's really dangerous. There's all sorts of people in thereβ"
Li Mochen interrupted William's words here: "Speaking of which, I'm actually ready to move, and it should be in the sky tonight." β
"Moving?" William was very surprised by Li Mochen: "Where are you going to move? I have already persuaded you, you should have moved away." In that place, there is no sunlight in the daytime, and living in it will cause mold, and it will also affect your demonic energy cultivation. β
"It should be near the school, right?"
Li Mochen said uncertainly, although the Nathan Sports Group promised to provide him with a decent place to live, but did not tell him the location.
He only knew that the other party should choose near the school, so that he could go to school on a regular basis.
"Near the school?"
William's lips twitched, but he swallowed back the words, 'Do you have enough money?'
Although Linden College is also in the southern city, it is close to the eastern part of the city, not far from the business district in the eastern part of the city. Over there is the lower city, one of the few neighborhoods where the rich gather.
And because of the high enrollment rate in the private part of Linden College and the dense police presence near the school, many of Atlanta's middle class live around this school park, so housing prices there have been high.
However, he wants to be Li Mochen's person, and since he plans to move to the vicinity of the school, he must have a certain certainty.
"In other words, you're getting rich, and the house has been sold, right?"
"No, but I've had some extra gains lately. β
Li Mochen admitted to William: "The house was provided by the Nathan Sports Group, didn't I tell you before? The people of Nathan Sports want to sign a sponsorship agreement with me, and they can provide me with a place to live." β
William looked at Li Mochen speechlessly, he really wanted to touch this guy's forehead to see if he had a fever.
Isn't it burning, daydreaming?
- This possibility is still very large, and he feels that he still needs to pay attention to one or two, so as not to be deceived by his good friend.
"Okay, okay, Nathan Athletic Group will provide you with a house. If I have the chance, I will visit you at home. β
After William finished speaking insincerely, he leaned into Li Mochen's ear and whispered, "I overheard Coach Riccard protesting to Miss Louise, saying that he was going to cancel your scholarship. Don't bother with Miss Louise herself, you're in the fourth round, and there's no reason for them to do that. β
By this time, the school bus that the two of them were riding had arrived at the door of Lyndon College. Li Mochen had just stepped off the school bus when he was attracted by a burly figure standing at the door.
The man was about thirty years old, rugged and wild-looking, dressed in a tattered desert military uniform, and the backpack behind him was bulging, with various metal tubes sticking out of it, which looked like the barrels of some ancient firearms. His big bronze bell-like eyes kept scanning all the students. This made the school police in the school like a big enemy, and dozens of people gathered here with loaded guns, which also made the students nervous.
Li Mochen's expression was also slightly condensed. Others may not be able to see the truth, but he knows that this must be an outlaw above level ten, and it is extremely powerful, maybe there is level nineteen, close to legend.
This person should have a strong control over his own strength, and he has restrained his own source power very well, and he looks like a low-level magic energy professional who is a little stronger.
And just as Li Mochen was about to walk into the school gate, the man suddenly fixed his eyes on Li Mochen.
"You're Andre Lee Wildenstein?"
Li Mochen suddenly froze, and looked at this one with a stunned expression: "Sir, may I ask who you are?"
"I am a friend of your father's and have come to you. hmmm, this appearance, it shouldn't be wrong. β
After the man finished speaking, he threw a small cloth bag to Li Mochen: "According to your father's instructions, I have to hand over this thing to you after he dies." You can open it and inspect it on the spot. β
At this time, all the people who passed by the school gate were looking at Li Mochen. Li Mochen frowned slightly, but still opened the cloth bag according to his words, and found that there were four small black stones inside, and there was an ordinary looking pocket watch.
"What is this? pocket watch, stone?"
William next to him looked disappointed: "That's all there is to it?"
But Li Mochen was a person who knew the goods, so he couldn't help but be slightly moved, and his eyes looked at the rugged man with a fixed gaze. The latter waved his hand slightly: "The inspection is over, right? Then I should also go." bye-bye; Children of Li Chunchu's family, I wish you a happy life in the future. β
"Wait a minute!"
Li Mochen's eyes flashed with a burning color: "I want to know, how did my parents die?"
The man paused, turned his head and glanced at Li Mochen, then he shook his head slightly, and continued to walk to the other side of the street: "You are too weak BOY, if you want to know the answer, wait until one day your magic energy profession reaches level 12 and come to me." β
