Chapter Seventy-Six: Transactions

"Ahem, ahem!"

With a few coughs, Jacob opened his eyes weakly and looked around in confusion.

"Jacob!" Looking down where the voice came from, Jacob saw Evie sitting in the chair next to the bed, looking at him worriedly.

Jacob moved his hand to get up from the bed, but he found that his current body could not get up at all, he looked at his chest wrapped in gauze, and asked weakly, "What's wrong with me......"

Evie took Jacob's right hand that was exposed, "Jacob, don't you remember? You were scratched by a werewolf in the manor!"

Jacob looked at Evie stunned: "Werewolf?manor?"

Evie said to Donner and Henry behind her with a worried face, "Mr. Donner, why doesn't Jacob remember anything?!"

Henry walked over to the bed and gently lifted Jacob's eyelids a little, then he nodded to Evie: "You should be glad he wasn't bitten by a werewolf, otherwise we'll have to accept the fact that Jacob will become a werewolf, and for now...... I think he's fine, although he still has some toxins from the werewolf's paws, but these toxins will at most keep him from exercising vigorously for the last two months, as for why he doesn't remember last night...... He probably hit his head when he fell, maybe he will recover in a few days. ”

Jacob regained some strength at this point, and he rubbed his temple with his hand, "I think it won't be a few days, and I'll already remember those three damn werewolves on the manor......!" I can't exercise vigorously for two months? Oh my God, it's a nightmare, I can't stay in bed for two months, or rather, I have to go back to the manor right now, or the crows will be finished!"

"Enough!!Forget about your damn crow!!I didn't approve of you starting the mafia from the beginning, obviously, I was right!" Evie snarled at Jacob.

Jacob looked at his sister with a headache: "Evie...... I created the Rooks single-handedly, and I can't just let him be gone!"

Evie glared at him, "No matter what you say, you don't want to get out of bed until your body is fully recovered!"

Henry watched the atmosphere between the siblings becoming more and more impetuous, and he hurriedly said: "I don't think the two of you need to quarrel, the three-month recovery time I said before is the time to use your own physical fitness to expel toxins, what if...... If you're willing to pay a small fee, I think I'll be able to get rid of the toxins in Mr. Jacob's body in two days!"

Jacob shifted his gaze to Henry, "How much is the small fee?"

Henry raised an eyebrow and held out a finger: "One pound, I think this price is appropriate, after all, it will save you three months of weakness, won't it?"

"Ahem!ahem!ahem!"

Jacob coughed a few times and nodded to Henry, "It's worth it, but I don't think we took that much money with us when we escaped...... I don't know if you can help me recover my body first, and when I recover my body and reintegrate the black crow, I will definitely give it to you!"

Henry spread his hands: "I'm sorry, I can't trust you, after all, we've only seen each other twice, and the last time we met, I wasn't very pleasant in general......"

Jacob sighed helplessly: "Then there is no other way for you to help me except to give you 1 pound?"

Henry shook his head: "Unfortunately, it looks like we can't make a deal......"

Jacob looked at the ceiling in despair: "Damn, it looks like I'm destined to lose the crow......"

"Mr. Henry, I don't know when you became a merchant...... "Arnold appeared at the door with a cane on his way out.

Henry looked back at Arno: "Your Excellency, I want to know you and me from the beginning, and that's how I am. ”

Arno's right index finger tapped the head of his cane: "Well, maybe you're right, but I still need your help Jacob, and I'll pay for the pound." ”

Henry bent down slightly, looking at Arno with a flattering expression on his face: "Follow your will! I'll go to Diagon Alley now to buy materials, and then come back to concoct the antidote, I don't think you mind if I bring the cauldron into the castle, right? ”

Arno nodded: "Of course, as long as the room belongs to you, you can bring anything in, of course...... Don't make anything that would threaten the safety of the people inside the castle. ”

Henry looked at Arnold helplessly: "I'm not the kind of reckless wizard, when I prepare any potion, I will be very meticulous, and there will be no accidents." ”

Arnold glanced at Henry, "Usually, that means there will be accidents in a small probability, right?"

Henry shrugged: "I think this is normal, you know, there will be mistakes in doing anything......"

Arno's sharp gaze fixed on Henry's face: "Then don't do anything dangerous, you must know that there are thousands of children in the castle! ”

Henry nodded helplessly: "Okay, okay, I see what you mean, but I won't make a mistake in making an antidote, after all, it's just the most basic potion." ”

Arnold nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, you go to the conference room and wait for me first, I have something to talk to you about before you leave......"

Henry saluted Arno, then turned and walked out.

Arno walked to the side of the bed with a cane, looked at the pale Jacob, sat down on the chair next to the bed and said, "Jacob, you don't look very good. ”

Jacob gave Arno a blank look, "If you were hit by a werewolf's claw, you would lie here like me." ”

Arno laughed, "Ha, I don't think werewolves can hurt me. ”

Jacob struggled to sit up at the head of the bed: "No, you don't know how terrible werewolves are, each of them is as tall as me, extremely powerful, and the bullets of the revolver can't hurt them at all!

Arno looked at Jacob amusedly, "Didn't I tell you? I once killed a werewolf alone. ”

Jacob and Evie, who was sitting on the side, looked at Arno in surprise and said in unison, "Killed a werewolf alone!?"

Arno nodded: "Yes, and it's easy......"
