Verse 176: Your Name (2)
"Speaking of which, the Michelle family is obviously a super rich family, why does it give me the impression of a small shabby." Camilla jumped off her horse and looked at the mansion in front of her, and the young paladin asked Colin beside her in a suspicious tone: "Colin, my good friend, do you think our viscount will deposit all the money in the cellar?" β
"Then this cellar has to dig up a hill of earth and rocks, and I think they should be stored in the insurance bank, and then make more money through loans." Colin sighed, "Making money sound like a good story, but history tells us that disorderly financial markets can only lead to disaster, and I'm still afraid to let mortal organizations control the markets." β
Camilla, of course, knew what Colin was talking about - two hundred years ago, the Chaos Champion of the Tongue Bird descended in the Eastern Kingdom, relying on the most prosperous financial market of the Eastern Kingdom at that time, it swept away those pathetic souls, and then summoned a large number of Chaos Legions, and in the face of this crisis, the human kingdoms, the Great Glades, the Crown Forest, the Logan Hills, and the Supreme Mountains made a covenant, and humans, orcs, elves, leprechauns, and dwarves stood in the same trench.
In addition to this, even some kobold clans, some bear goblin tribes, and some spirit families have joined in.
Because no one can stay out of it, and if the tide of chaos sweeps through this world, then everyone will die.
"Speaking of which, why do humans keep repeating the same mistakes?" Camila stood in front of the gate.
"Maybe it's to keep the heroes from losing their jobs because they have nothing to do." Colin stood beside him, raised his hand, and pressed the doorbell on the doorβit was also a trendy gadget, powered by a shard of magic hedron that made a sound when pressed.
"The Tech Hunter Guild will always find some antiques from the last generation in desperate situations." Camilla has always been insensitive to such trendy things, and for him, who knows if these trendy things will be the gadgets left behind by the Chaos Evil God.
"Don't always look at these trendy things with colored eyes." Colin gave his friend a blank look, and at the same time, because the door was open, Colin nodded to the halfling butler standing behind the door: "Hello, we are Priest Colin of the Goddess of Harvest Church and Camila Knight of the Church of Justice, we have an appointment." β
"It turned out to be two gentlemen, my young master just mentioned you to me, and he said that if it is two, please come in quickly." Opening the door, the halfling butler smiled and stepped out of the way: "Please come in, two." β
"Thank you." Colin was in front and Camilla was behind, and the two walked into the mansion, the hall was well lit, and Colin saw Mr. Michelle sitting in front of the large floor-to-ceiling window at a glance, and he greeted him.
The viscount, who was still in a plaster cast, smiled and nodded: "Good afternoon, two, I'm sorry, I can't stand up to welcome you." β
"Please don't say that, Mr. Michel, we are here today, first, to visit you, and secondly, to inform you that the murderer's actions are becoming more and more rampant, and for security reasons, we at the Harvest Goddess Church are willing to send a protection team for your family."
"That's great." Mr. Michel seemed to be very happy, and he nodded vigorously: "I also heard that even the third step like Mrs. Oriel was brutally murdered, I think for safety reasons, I really need someone to protect myself, originally I wanted to go to the guild to find elite bodyguards, and now there is a church that can protect me, it's really good." β
Speaking of this, the young man took out a small notebook from the small box beside him and wrote a large number on it, and his halfling butler had already come to his side at this time, took the check written by his young master, and then held it in both hands and handed it to Colin.
Colin shook his head as a matter of course: "No, Mr. Michel, this protection operation is free, your family is the devout family of the Goddess of Harvest Church, we will not sit idly by and watch you and your family relatives suffer misfortune, it is precisely because of this that we are in front of you today." β
"I know, Mr. Colin, I know that my sister and I have grown up in the church since we were children, and we are deeply blessed by the church, and we still need the church to protect us today, and this money is my contribution, please accept them and put them in the donation box on my behalf, okay." Mr. Michelle's words and deeds are pious.
Colin thought for a moment, then nodded before he took the check, "I'll put it in the donation box." β
"Thank you, Mr. Colin."
"Please don't say that, Mr. Michel, our church will use this money where it is needed most."
The conversation was cordial and friendly, and Mr. Michel even repeatedly invited and retained Colin and Camilla to have dinner at his house.
"Why do you agree?" Camila looked at her old friend, and asked the question when Mr. Michel was pushed back to his room to change clothes by the halfling butler.
"The other party is so polite, and the check says 50,000 yuan, do you think I can leave after receiving the money." Colin asked rhetorically, "So why don't you eat here?"
Camilla thought for a while, and finally nodded with some understanding: "Okay, you convinced me, if I pat my ass and leave, I will definitely be beaten to death by the bishop." β
"So why don't you stay for dinner?" Speaking of this, Colin turned his head to look at his old friend: "Then again, don't you think it's a little strange. β
"Indeed, he gave the answer to protect the team, which makes me very strange, it is impossible for any murderer to cause more trouble around him." Camila said with a frown.
"That's what I'm weird about, so we'll have to wait a little bit now, I'll send them a message now that we've already chosen the protection team, and they'll be able to arrive after dinner today, anyway, it's a good sign." Colin said as he walked to the window, where he summoned his goblin and told it to go to church with his message.
"I hope so, Colin." Camila finished speaking, and turned her head to look at the door.
Colin also turned his head, and they saw a girl walk into the hall, and she noticed Colin and Camilla: "You two are ......"
"Ah, Miss, you came back just in time, these two are friends of the young master, Mr. Colin of the Harvest Goddess Church and Mr. Camilla of the Justice Church."
"Mr. Colin! Oh my God, look at the look in my eyes. The girl smiled a little awkwardly: "Is there anything wrong with the two of you?" β
"Our church will provide a protection squad, the murderer has been very rampant lately, and your brother has agreed." Colin smiled - he knew Sheila, and it was recognized that this girl didn't have a good eye.
Sheila nodded, then she looked at her brother, "Brother, I'm back." β
"Welcome back, my sister, how was it with your boyfriend." Mr. Michelle asked with a smile.
"That's great." Mr. Michel seemed very happy, and he turned to look at Colin and Camilla, "Please take a seat, both of you." β
After saying that, he was pushed into a wheelchair by his impatient sister into the restaurant on one side.
The old butler smiled and made a gesture of please, and then entered the dining room.
Colin glanced at Karami, who looked at Collin, "Mr. Michelle lied just now. β
"You're sick, who likes to have an uninvited man next to their sister." Colin rolled his eyes, he felt that there was something wrong with his old friend.
