Chapter 516: I Still Have Business to Do
"It's long overdue, if you want to talk about business, you have to be simple. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Akikawa said as he sat up straight, pressed the cigarette in his hand into the ashtray, then took out one and re-lit it, and then smoked.
"Anyway, I have such a Horcrux on me, you don't want more. Qi Murong clasped her hands on her chest, her posture was no longer dignified, and she said to Ming Chuan in a rather scoundrel tone.
"Even if this Horcrux is the first deposit, if I save Li Dong, you will have to pay something else. Ming Chuan squinted and stretched out his right hand to the other party, motioning for her to hand over the jade to him.
"What if it fails?" Qi Murong asked with a frown.
"The Horcruxes are mine, too. Ming Chuan said unceremoniously.
"Then if you fail, won't I lose a lot?" Qi Murong said with a glare.
"This is the rule of our line of business, and the deposit is non-refundable, no matter how small. Ming Chuan shrugged and said, "Even if you look for someone else, it's the same." ”
"I don't believe it. ”
"Don't believe it, pull it down. Ming Chuan shrugged indifferently, "Do you want a Horcrux, or do you want to save Li Dong?"
When Qi Murong heard this, she pursed her lips, her expression was quite struggling, and finally she sighed, took out the Horcruxes, and held them in the palm of her hand.
"Tell me first, if I succeed, what do I need to pay?" Qi Murong didn't directly hand over the things to Ming Chuan, and asked with her hands clasped defensively.
"You're a real nuisance. Ming Chuan scratched his hair a little irritably, and said to the other party, "If it succeeds, I won't let you make a personal promise, but you have to provide me with some information." ”
"Intelligence?" Qi Murong blinked, a little puzzled.
"Yes, everything about you will have to be told to me when the time comes. Ming Chuan said with drooping eyelids.
"What do you want to know?" Qi Murong frowned slightly when she heard this.
"Didn't I say it? everything, both during your life and after your death. Ming Chuan smoked a cigarette and said slowly.
"What do you want me to say this?" Qi Murong was a little puzzled, and intuitively thought that there must be some traps in Mingchuan's request.
"I'm curious. Ming Chuan said lightly, "This ability of yours is very special, I want to know the reason for its production." ”
"Curious?" Qi Murong blinked, her original plan was to hope that Mingchuan could solve her problem by the way and answer this doubt for her, but there was only one valuable goods she could get her hands on, so she thought about how to make this mercenary guy willing to help her for free, and was thinking about what method to use to make the other party take the bait, but he brought it up himself, and it was used as the final payment, which was exactly what she wanted.
Although she was secretly happy in her heart, Qi Murong remained silent on the surface, still looked at Ming Chuan with a skeptical attitude, and said, "You don't have other plans, right?"
"Do I look like that kind of person?" Ming Chuan raised his eyebrows. He wasn't lying, he was indeed curious about how the female ghost's prophetic ability came from, but more importantly, only by knowing this information, he could summon the ghost sword to purify the female ghost.
In addition to the female ghost's commission, he also accepted Li Dong's commission, and purifying this female ghost was his real purpose.
Of course, he can't let this female ghost know about this.
The two looked at each other with a smile and quickly reached an agreement.
"You won't abscond with the money after receiving the deposit, right?" After handing the jade to Ming Chuan, Qi Murong suddenly thought of this possibility.
"Hey, do I look like such a lewd and untrustworthy person?" Ming Chuan said with some dissatisfaction.
"It's not the best, otherwise, I'll find you wherever you go, and let you taste the consequences of offending me. Qi Murong said and smiled sweetly at Mingchuan, the threat was very obvious.
"When it comes to business, I would never do anything against my reputation, and you can rest assured of that. Ming Chuan drooped his eyelids, gently rubbed the jade in his hand while smoking, his brows moved slightly, and he raised his eyelids to look at Qi Murong, "This is a ghost?"
"Of course, I'm a ghost, what else can I have if it's not a ghost?" Qi Murong said as a matter of course.
"But you could have said this was a Horcrux before. "Ghosts are also things in the ghost world, just like ghosts have no body, how can they be used to seal the spirits of ghosts?
"I didn't lie to you, before it became a ghost, it was indeed a Horcrux, and it used to seal a very powerful ghost. Qi Murong said with a smile.
Ming Chuan frowned, a look of displeasure on his face.
"I really didn't lie to you. Seeing this, Qi Murong was worried that Mingchuan would regret it, and immediately said, "After becoming a ghost, although it can no longer be used to seal ghosts, the energy contained in it is purer than before, and it is also a rare thing for you ghost exorcists." ”
Ming Chuan glanced at her and said with a cold expression: "You don't have to worry, since I have agreed to take your commission, I will not regret it." However, I hope that this kind of thing will not happen a second time in the future. ”
Ming Chuan didn't deliberately change his tone when he spoke, it was still that faint listless voice, but after Qi Murong heard it, his whole body suddenly turned over, he nodded as if he was shocked, and even said with some trepidation: "No, it won't." ”
After finishing speaking, Qi Murong came back to her senses and couldn't help but wonder what happened to her just now.
Although Ming Chuan was annoyed by the other party's deception, as Qi Murong said, although this palm-sized jade artifact was a ghost artifact, it could no longer be used as a vessel to seal ghosts, but the energy contained in it was extremely pure, as if it was condensed by a high concentration of ghost qi, containing the energy of ghost qi.
This stone may be of limited use to other exorcists, but to him, it is indeed an extremely rare thing, and it may be more valuable than a simple Horcrux.
Putting away the jade, Ming Chuan stood up and walked towards the door.
"Are you going to investigate this matter?" Seeing this, Qi Murong immediately happily followed behind him, and asked while floating in the air.
"How can you investigate this without any clues?" Ming Chuan glanced at her angrily, "I still have business to do." ”
"Serious business, what serious matter is more important than Li Dong's life?" Qi Murong was a little dissatisfied, she didn't think it was anything before, but after Ming Chuan's reminder, she suddenly felt that Li Dong's situation was quite dangerous, and she could die at any time.
"Li Dong is a police officer, and he is a criminal policeman. The nature of his work itself carries a certain amount of danger, and it is not a matter of the past few days that his life will be in danger. Ming Chuan said as he walked out of the door, "Besides, you've been delayed for several days, and it's not too late." ”
"Hey, what important things do you have to do?" Qi Murong couldn't help but ask.
"Feed the cats. Ming Chuan turned his head and replied lazily.
