Chapter 278: The Demon's Bewitchment [Continued]
"Looks like a few fresh faces, Catherine." A male voice broke the silence that had persisted between Catherine and Pearl, "Your new friend? ”
"Hello, Jerry!" Catherine turned her head to glance at the source of the voice.
A tall, fluffy, curly white man with his hair swayed with House and walked towards Catherine and the others. Billy and Harper were still hanging from a distance.
"I thought you were gone." The white man walked up to Catherine's side, pulled a chair next to her, sat down, and snapped his fingers at House.
"I was supposed to go. But something happened. I'll have to spend some more time here. Catherine's face resurfaced with a sweet and bewildering smile, and she glanced at the man sitting beside her.
Jerry nodded, reached out and took a glass of spirits pushed by House at the bar, and after pouring himself a large sip with a comfortable face, he shook the pearl in front of him with the hand holding the mouth of the wine glass, and Harbour and Billy who were gradually walking behind: "Welcome to stay, don't you introduce me to these friends of yours?" ”
"Pearl, my former best friend." Catherine motioned for House to refill her empty glass, then picked up the glass and ordered a pearl and Billy and Harper respectively: "The two who have been following you were my subordinates before, and now they are hers." ”
"Hello, maybe Catherine has already talked to you about me, but I'd better introduce myself formally, Jerry Fury. Lived in the city for almost eighty years. Jerry raised his glass to Pearl for a moment, then glanced at Catherine, who was sitting upright, "Looks like you and your friend are in a bit of 'trouble', do you need me to do anything?" ”
"It's a bit of a hassle Jerry, we need you to show what you're capable of." Catherine poured herself one sip after another glass of wine, and said without politeness in her words.
"I'm not good at fighting or anything. There are so many vampires around you, and it seems that there is no shortage of me. Jerry replied with a joking smile.
"Sibi and they are all in the past, and I have a better one now." Catherine rolled her eyes, rested her empty glass on the table, and turned her head to look at Jerry beside her, "I don't need you to fight for me, because I know it's impossible." I brought them to you to let you play to your strengths, Jerry! ”
Jerry was silent for a moment, glanced vaguely at Pearl, and then regrouped back beside Pearl, "What do you want to know?" How far do you want me to do it for you? ”
"I just need you to help me find some people and provide some intelligence and information." Catherine replied nonchalantly.
"Vampires? Werewolf? Or a witch? You know, I have a limited scope of management. Jerry didn't refuse, but he left himself some leeway between words. Originally, what he did was to buy and sell some underground information, and dirty things like gangsters. As soon as Catherine opened her mouth, his vigilant heart eased slightly.
It's just to help Catherine find some people and provide some information. As long as your hands and feet are clean and secretive, there will be no trouble. The reason why he was still vigilant and did not agree to Catherine's request was because he knew some of Catherine's surname and knew what a cunning person she was.
Although Catherine has covered it up well throughout, Jerry believes he can't be wrong about how he feels about Catherine. Making a deal with such a sweet **person** is not good, but it will cause trouble.
"Neither, just some humans." Catherine shook her head, turned around on the round stool, crossed a ** beautiful leg, and looked at Jerry face to face.
"Humans?" Jerry was stunned for a moment. He had thought of many possibilities and answers, but Catherine was undoubtedly the least likely and least likely of the answers he had imagined. He smirked and said, "This city is full of humans, you have to give me a definite goal, Catherine." Or do you just need a lot of big humans? Did you join some secret organization that studied the human body? As he spoke, Jerry's gaze vaguely swept over Pearl and Billy.
"If I really join that kind of organization, I'll sell them vampires for research." Catherine replied coldly. "I need your help me find troubled, capable scientists and copper-smelling businessmen. Then find them, or give me their information. This should be easy for you. ”
"That's it?" Jerry's request for Catherine seemed a little incredible. As Catherine said, it wasn't difficult for him. For nearly eighty years, he had built his own underground force and intelligence gathering channel in the city.
Compared to looking for a wandering werewolf, vampire, witch or something, Catherine asked for those people, even if he didn't deliberately look for contact, Jerry knew that there were many of them. As one of the few famous big cities in the country, there is no shortage of such people.
"That's it!" Catherine nodded in response: "The more people, the more detailed the information and intelligence, the better." I can only give you one day. She begged Tang Bai for three days, and now nearly ten hours have passed, and Catherine will naturally not waste the rest of the time.
If you have the means and connections, you can participate in a few banquets held by the upper class, and you can find a lot of people who meet the requirements by picking and choosing.
"One day?" Jerry frowned slightly. But it soon stretched out again. Although the time is a bit tight, it is not too difficult. As long as he can find someone who meets the requirements, he will only play a role similar to matchmaking.
After thinking about it carefully, Jerry, who didn't find any abnormalities or traps in it, nodded at Catherine: "I agreed to this, let's talk about the reward next." ”
"I've never seen any other vampire as greedy for money as you are." Catherine gave Jerry a blank look.
"No, I'm not greedy for money, but I need it, so I will be greedy. If you can produce what I need, you can make more demanding demands and let me and my lovely subordinates do more dangerous things. Jerry muttered, and took a large stack of coins from the side of Pearl. (To be continued.) )
