(A few days ago, my wrist hurt a little, I didn't take it seriously, but the day before yesterday it was really painful, like there were countless needles, and I couldn't even sleep well, and I went to the hospital to know that my wrist was inflamed, and I took anti-inflammatory drugs to bandage it, and now it's finally much better.) ）

Relationships between people are always complex and simple, sometimes you can trust a stranger lightly, but sometimes you will be suspicious of familiar relatives and friends, and most of this depends on a person's personality.

It has been three days since he moved into the manor villa near the sea, and during these three days, Xia Lan has basically left early and returned late, on the one hand, he is in-depth about the recent events in Monterre, and on the other hand, he is investigating the intermediary businessman DeWitt.

Charan is a suspicious person, in other words, a person who only believes in himself.

He made a lot of mistakes, but no one wanted to repeat them.

Blunding. The mysterious death of Gotch and other pirates has recently caused a sensation in Montreles, although it is rumored that the rebellious pirates plotted to poison the captain and take the opportunity to escape on the ship, but the Montrées Sheriff's Department has not announced the truth of the matter for a long time, and as a result, people have privately discussed and speculated, and many pirates have even cleaned up the interior after hearing about it, so as not to break out like Brentin. Gorch's tragic thing.

These follow-up effects had been anticipated by Charan, but he had no idea that the Montrées Sheriff's Office was still secretly investigating Brundin. The truth of Gotchi's death, and the Guò intelligence trafficker found that the clues of the Public Security Department's investigation were targeted on his own group, which is not good news.

No doubt. Blunding. Gooch betrayed his message before he died.

Out of unplanned variables, Xia Lan has long been used to it. He believes. Sooner or later, the Montrées Security Department will find them, but at this stage, it is impossible for him to face Montrées head-on, but he can still do it by cutting off some clues and creating illusions to mislead and delay time, and when they do find him, maybe he has already left Montrées.

It is not difficult to understand the investigation of the intermediary businessman DeWitt, because he is a native of Montreis, and many intelligence traffickers have complete information about him. Even some intelligence traffickers dug up the names of his ancestors, which also reflected DeWitt's position among the intermediary businessmen in Montreis.

He is a very principled businessman, in the process of trading, he will ask for your information, but he will never betray any of your information, of course, the most important thing is that he can always do what you tell you to do.

He always seemed to be alone, with no relatives, no friends, no subordinates.

Mean streak. Mercenary images are his personal label, but there will always be a steady stream of customers coming to his door.

He used to have breakfast in a teahouse in Changzhi District every morning. If nothing else, he'd sit in the teahouse all morning.

Someone once asked him why he was used to it.

He said that some people are accustomed to drinking tea, some people are accustomed to drinking, and each of us is more or less a slave to habit, which is more stubborn than nature, and if it is not checked, it will soon become a necessity of our lives; At first, I didn't have this habit, but one day I was bored and observed everyone who passed by in front of the teahouse, and suddenly one day I found myself used to this kind of life, and sometimes people would ask me, why did I succeed in the intermediary businessman? Quite simply, because I know my own observations of our guests and know better than they do about the essence and needs of our guests.

DeWitt used his principles and observations to gain his current status, and Xia Lan wanted to know what kind of person he was in the eyes of the other party, because he was very interested, so he asked.

After delivering the last batch of goods that were needed, Xia Lan brought up the issue.

DeWitt smiled and replied: "In the eyes of a mercenary businessman, our favorite is a customer who is generous and cares not at all about money but only about results, and you are such a person in my eyes, do other reasons matter?" ”

Are other reasons important for money to businessmen? Perhaps this answer is only clear to the other party himself.

Xia Lan didn't ask deeply, just returned the favor with an intriguing smile.

Then, he hired a stealthy thief and began to spy on them at all times.

The reason is simple, he doesn't want Brentin. Gooch's affair is happening again, even if it's true.

Winnie and Magnison showed considerable efficiency with the new alchemy utensils, after all, they had been in the underground warehouse from morning till night, and there was no fun other than making what Zuò Charan needed, especially since there was an Adrina standing by her side who was watching the whole time.

Their lives were essentially no different from those of slaves, and after breakfast they would begin to make zuò in the warehouse until about the early hours of the morning, and lunch and dinner would be brought by the servants, and Charan and Adrina were like overseers, but at different times.

When Charan was in charge of surveillance, Winnie and Magnitson would openly study Adrina's hair and blood, but the harvest was always unsatisfactory to Charan.

The housekeeper and servant of the manor villa were certainly strange about the actions of Xia Lan and the others in their hearts, but they always kept a blind eye on the surface.

The servants and the housekeeper have already colluded with each other to share the rent, as long as Xia Lan and the others don't cause any big trouble, they don't care what the other party does, sometimes Xia Lan's intentional or unintentional rewards will make the servants who serve happy for a while, and even wish they could live in the villa for a longer time, but this idea is not very realistic, and the real owner of the manor villa will come back sooner or later.

It's a quiet midnight.

Xia Lan came to the underground warehouse again.

Looking at Winnie and Magnison, who were tired and pale in front of the desk, Xia Lan did not have a trace of sympathy, and after counting the potions completed today according to custom, he stretched out his hand and made a "please" signal.

Winnie and Magnison glanced at each other at the same time, and without saying a word, picked up the potion on the table.

There are a total of three bottles of the same potion, and they will try a little bit of each bottle, if there is a problem with the potion, Xia Lan will find out at the first time, life and death are up to them.

Of course, this can't prevent the two of them from doing things in the potion, but Xia Lan has her own solution.

According to the information dealer, he found a high-level alchemist in Monteres who violated the taboo of alchemy, and every time he would ask the other party to help him identify the potion, if he encountered a potion, he would directly use a slave to directly test the effect of the potion, although the method was cruel, but the effect was very good, so he discovered the dangers hidden in several potions.

A single medicine is harmless, and if used with a matching medicine, it will produce a danger that is not good for the health of the body, and further can lead to death.

Every time he encountered such a situation, Xia Lan would force Winnie and Magnison to drink the potion in question, and looking at their pale faces, he couldn't help but feel some kind of inexplicable pleasure in his heart.

Torturing one's body is simple, but torturing one's soul requires skill.

He found himself more and more fond of the latter. (To be continued......)
