Chapter 5 Unsolicited Clients

After successfully escaping, Lucia took out her trophy with satisfaction, a pocket watch, hung it in her hand, and watched it swing in the air, and said to herself, "Just break the pocket watch so quickly, as for so many people to grab it?" she swallowed the remaining wine in the cup in one gulp, "But I have finally completed a task, and I must send it to my employer quickly!"

Speaking of the employer, it has to be said that three days ago in the evening, after Lucia was attacked by a vampire, she dragged her heavy body back to the second floor of her temporary residence, the Golden Monkey Tavern, and fell into a groggy sleep. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The heat and the feeling of pressure alternated, and subconsciously, Lucia thought that she had a fever, but in the next second, all the pain from the body suddenly disappeared. Symbols and unfamiliar faces kept flashing through her mind, and before she could make out them, she vanished. Sometimes, she thought she was awake, she saw the white altar of her hometown, she heard someone's call in her ears, she could even feel the wind elves stirring their wings, and the stinging of the sun shining through the gaps in her fingertips...... But in the blink of an eye, everything disappeared without a trace, and in its place was endless darkness. Then unfamiliar symbols and faces reappeared, and so on and so forth, until the morning of the third day, when Lucia came to her senses.

She opened her eyes and stared straight at the ceiling, there were so many things in her head that she didn't know were disturbing her thoughts, and she needed to tidy them up urgently.

"Ding-" The sound of the silver colliding pierced her eardrums, and she subconsciously bounced up from the bed and blocked her ears, looking for the source of the sound.

At this time, Lucia realized that there was another person in what should have been her own room. The man was sitting at the table in front of the bed drinking tea, and the sound just now came from him fiddling with the silver tea set.

"Good morning, Miss Lucia. The man took a sip of his teacup, frowned, and put it back in its place.

Lucia stared at the silver tea set, she vaguely remembered the private collection of Angelina, the proprietress of the Golden Monkey Tavern, and outsiders would be furious when they touched it. Looking up, it was a man in his 30s, gorgeously dressed, with brown hair and brown eyes, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, although his expression was indifferent on the surface, Lucia caught a hint of arrogance in the reflection of his glasses.

"Who are you?" Lucia had no impression of the man.

The man didn't answer, but instead there was a rush of footsteps on the stairs, and at the same time, Angelina's voice came: "Mr. Mo'an, what else do you need?" Would you like to serve you a pot of good wine, although the tea just now is already the best in the small shop, but the tavern is better still wine......

Lucia almost laughed the moment she saw Angelina, unlike her before, she could see that she was carefully dressed, with a flower on her head and a white dress. But this outfit is incompatible with the large barrel of wine she is carrying, and it is not so much pretending to be innocent as the proprietress of the Golden Monkey Tavern herself has added a new dish called "nymphomaniac" to the tavern's menu.

"Miss Angelina, I have something to discuss with Miss Lucia now, please refrain from it. The person known as Mr. Mo'an said lightly, "Also, thank you for the tea set." "I didn't look at Angelina the whole time.

Lucia heard the sound of a broken glass heart in Angelina's dry laughter, and then watched her go downstairs in solitude. Poor Angelina...... Lucia turned her head, "What are you calling Moan?"

Mo An leaned back in the chair slightly, and smiled: "Businessman." ”

"Oh...... Do I have business with you?" Lucia sighed, stomped on the table, and began to tie her shoelaces carelessly.

"It's going to be right away," Mo An took out a piece of paper from his pocket and put it on the table, with a pocket watch drawn on it, "I don't like going around in circles, so I'll be straight to the point." You're a bounty hunter, I'm an employer, and this is your job. ”

Lucia squinted her eyes for a moment, and said with little interest, "The task of finding something is thankless, and besides, I have no clues. ”

"I have the clues. Mo An flipped the piece of paper over, and there were two lines on it, "This is the time and place where the thing appeared, you just need to help me get it back, and the remuneration is not a problem." ”

Hearing the word "reward", Lucia's attitude changed 180 degrees, she quickly pulled a chair and sat in front of Moan: "That...... Can you give out a hundred dissols?"

The corners of Mo An's mouth showed a hint of contempt: "The pocket watch is my heirloom, unfortunately it fell into the hands of others, as long as you can help me get it back, not to mention a hundred disors, ten thousand will not be a problem." ”

"I'll take it!" Lucia made a quick decision before her own eyeballs fell out, she finally knew why Angelina wanted to please Moan. After all, no one has ever made such a generous move before, and it is natural not to seize this kind of opportunity immediately. "However, since you have a clue, why don't you go yourself?" and come to me as a ......" The words "unknown bounty hunter" were swallowed by Lucia, and she still had to question it before the last reason flew away with her excitement, in fact, she still knew the hard truth that it takes more money to work harder.

"I said, this is my family heirloom, since it is a treasure, there are people to watch, but they are all rabble, Miss Lucia was humble just now, you are such a powerful bounty hunter, even vampires can be subdued, and you will take care of those little thieves?"

"How do you know ......?" Lucia was shocked. She hadn't told anyone about vampires, not even her employer, Mandeli.

"Money makes the devil grind. Besides, you slept for three days, and I had plenty of time to investigate, not only about the vampires, but also about you, such as ...... The forged bounty hunter certificate...... "Moan deliberately spoke slowly, observing Lucia's expression.

This time, Lucia's eyeballs are really going to fall, what else does this man know?

"However, I'm not a formality person, and strength is more important to me. Ignoring Lucia's reaction, Moan continued.

"Don't worry, I'll keep it a secret. He stood up and shoved the piece of paper into Lucia's hand, "As long as you bring it back to me in good condition." ”

After saying that, Mo An walked towards the stairs without waiting for Lucia's response.

"Wait, where do you live, how can I find you?"

"Crescent Manor. Mo An put on his hat, walked down the steps, and suddenly stopped, "By the way, I paid for your accommodation here for three months, which is considered a deposit......" He thought all about it, for a moment, "A friend said that there is much more to vampires than this, you have to do it yourself." ”

Moan's footsteps grew farther and farther away, and Lucia's mind grew more and more confused. The amount of information is too large to digest for a while. Suddenly, the stomach twitched twice, and an unprecedented hunger pang swept through the body.
