Chapter 1 Message
The plane slowly landed on the runway, Xing Tianyu woke up from his sleep, glanced out the window, and saw a picture that didn't seem to be so exotic, the runway of the airport and the planes taking off and landing. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Following Sylvia off the plane, half an hour later, the two got into a taxi bound for downtown New York.
The so-called largest city in the United States seems to be nothing more than that. Xing Tianyu looked at the street scene of New York outside the window, it didn't look much different from the big cities in China, except for the English signboards and the different people walking on the streets, these bustling big cities seemed to be the same urine.
However, there are still some differences, and the city of New York, probably because of its age, can see a lot of half-new and old buildings, mixed with luxurious and beautiful buildings, and it seems that there is a sense of overlap in time.
The design of the city and the scenery of the streets are also very American, Xing Tianyu looked at this scenery, compared the Hollywood movies and American dramas he had watched, and was very sure that he had indeed arrived in the United States.
The taxi drove for a long time.
"Here it is," the taxi stopped in front of a beautiful house. It is a detached house that Americans call a House, with a nice garden and greenery.
It is the most quintessential home of the American middle class and one of the symbols of the American dream.
"Your house is beautiful." While following Sylvia into the house, Xing Tianyu looked around, just like the scene in many Hollywood movies, a two-story villa with a very residential style.
"This is not my house, it is my grandmother's house, and she left it to me before she died." As she spoke, she led Xing Tianyu in.
"Your room is on the second floor, there are several rooms in this house, but you are the only guest, so pick any one, let's take a break and go to my detective later."
Xing Tianyu put down his luggage, he didn't feel too tired, the strengthened body was unusually full of energy, even if he had just completed a transoceanic flight, he didn't feel tired.
He browsed the room with great interest, and it was hard to imagine that a woman like Sylvia would live in such an ordinary and comfortable place.
Nasylvia had already taken two bottles of beer out of the fridge and handed one over.
The two sat on a bench outside the house, sipping beer and chatting a few words.
The two didn't stay long, an hour later, the two set off, Sylvia drove, the detective's office, is located in Brooklyn is an old building faΓ§ade, and Brooklyn is a famous slum in New York, when Xing Tianyu and Sylvia arrived in Brooklyn from where they lived in a car, they felt as if they had arrived in another world, the style of painting was different, ignoring the black boys who whistled at Sylvia, the two walked through the dilapidated glass doors and dark corridors, I walked into the office of Detective William Max.
"Ah, Sylvia, my favorite customer, we really haven't seen each other in a long time." Seeing Sylvia walk in, William Marks was about to come up with a bear hug, but Sylvia glared at him warningly, and William Marks retracted his hand in a sneer, but his eyes fell on Xing Tianyu, and asked with an unhappy expression, "Who is this guy?" β
"He's my friend," Sylvia sat down, "Tell me then, have you found the book I wanted?" β
"Yes, it took me a lot of effort, I looked for someone to help me everywhere, but it can be regarded as letting me do it, after all, it was your commission, and it was worth spending more effort."
Sylvia waved his hand, signaling that he could stop talking, "I'm not interested in hearing this, tell me where it is." β
"It's in the hands of the Brabi Auction House," said the fat man. Seeing that both of them looked dazed, they had to introduce them again. "The Brabi auction is one of the most famous auctions in New York, and it is known for its religious and mythological antiquities, whether it is the record boards of the ancient Mayans or the voodoo dolls made by the indigenous people of the Caribbean, and it is said to have a very strong religious background."
Speaking of this, William Marks had a mysterious expression on his face, "It is said that the owner of this auction house is a member of a mysterious sect. β
Occult sects? A mocking smile appeared on Sylvia's face, "It's all some guys with sick brains, they like to pretend to be ghosts." β
Still, she asked, "What's the name of this sect?" β
"It seems to be called the 'Cult of the Most High God.'"
Xing Tianyu was happy when he heard it, sure enough, he could meet the True God Sect anywhere, he had met a One True God Sect in Yequan Town, and he felt that it was completely a group of jokes, when he first heard that Jian Feiyu talk about the True God Sect, he thought it was too exaggerated, but he didn't expect to meet it today, and he suddenly lost the only trace of awe he had for this so-called mysterious sect.
"I've heard the name of this sect, don't worry, I guess I don't have any real skills."
Sylvia nodded, "I think so too, but if you can, it's better to keep a low profile, let's go to the auction, if we can win it through normal means, it's naturally best." Otherwise, we'll have to go hard. You've done a great job William, I'll pay you to your account, when will the auction take place? β
"Three days later."
"Good, goodbye then."
Seeing the back of the two leaving, William Marks immediately picked up the phone, "Hey, they're back, yes, they'll be in the auction in three days." β
Dividing line ββββββ
"Do you think things are a little weird?" When the two walked out of the office, Xing Tianyu suddenly asked.
"What to say." Sylvia asked noncommittally.
"Think about it, the words on the Book of the Otherworldly are so magical, how can it not attract attention, since this Supreme True God Society is a mysterious sect, and they are very interested in these things related to the occult, so if they get the Book of the Otherworld, is it no wonder that they will not try to summon it? And as long as they summon it, they will definitely be able to summon something from the other world, so the question is, why do they have to put such a magical treasure up for auction? β
Sylvia looked thoughtful, "So what do you mean?" β
