Under the watchful eyes of his teammates, Wren slowly stood up.

"I'm sorry about Milton. Wren said very sincerely: "What happened that night, it's not for me to decide, I also want to fight side by side with everyone, but it seems that there is no chance." ”

With that, he took out the microphone and placed it on the table.

"Wren!" Pollock cried out.

The other teammates' faces also changed in unison, but they didn't expect that Wren would be so decisive and quit the demon slaying team directly, without the slightest nostalgia.

Pollock hurriedly said: "Wren, don't be impulsive, I believe you didn't mean to escape, and I don't mean to leave the team." ”

"I know. ”

Wren nodded, but he didn't mean to change his mind, and said helplessly: "I cherish the share of the demon slayer team, but it's a pity that I have too many personal matters and have not fulfilled the duties of the demon slaying team. ”

Pollock smiled bitterly, regretting it in his heart.

It is true that Wren rarely reports to the Demon Slayer team, and he has not met with his teammates a few times in total, but it is definitely not a dereliction of duty, just by destroying the Abyss Gate, Wren's contribution to Long Shande exceeds that of the entire Demon Slayer Department.

Even if Wren occupies this position and doesn't do anything, he deserves a hundred years of salary for white-collar workers.

He also wanted to explain a few more words and try to redeem himself.

Wren shook his head firmly, and said with a smile: "Captain, and everyone, see you later." Then, turning out of the convening room.

Pollock and several of the team members looked at each other.

After being silent for a long time, Frida, who had always been quiet and beautiful, suddenly snorted and hurried away with a frosty face, Hargrove looked at her back, opened her mouth, and finally couldn't say a word.

Wren walked out of the security bureau easily, got on his bicycle and returned to Silver Star Academy, and continued to carry books.

Halfway through the ride, a black car suddenly caught up from behind, speeding up with him, and the rear window fell, revealing the shadow of Sheriff Chief Felion.

This legendary magic swordsman full of aristocratic atmosphere is still as calm and calm as ever.

"Wren, come to the car and talk. ”

The car slowly slowed down and stopped, Wren did not refuse, stuffed the bicycle into the trunk, sat on the car, and took the initiative to greet: "Your Excellency the Director." ”

"I've heard Pollock's report, you're quitting the Demon Slayer?" asked Felion straight to the point.

"Yes. ”

Felion was a little regretful, but he didn't feel very surprised, and said indifferently: "With your strength, sooner or later you will leave the demon slaying team, I just didn't expect it to be so soon." ”

Wren smiled, Felion, as one of Duke Silverstar's henchmen, knew everything about that day, so he didn't ask why.

"That night, you told the Duke that there might be an inside team of demons. Felion turned to something else, and his face became serious, "I have secretly conducted a big investigation in the past few days, but I haven't found it, and the public security bureau's microphone meter has not been monitored, could it be that you are mistaken?"

"Didn't find it?" Wren was a little skeptical.

What he suspected was not whether there was guilt, but whether Felion's secret investigation was reliable.

I contacted Pollock in the underground fortress, and as soon as Duke Silverstar arrived at the Sword of Oath, Shadow Blade detonated the earthquake technique, and the reaction was so fast, indicating that Shadow Blade may still have gotten the news.

Of course, perhaps it was a coincidence, but it happened that Shadow Blade decided to launch the plan in advance, and even if the Duke of Silver Star did not appear, it would cause an earthquake.

But judging from the situation of that report, there must be a shadow blade lurker in the security bureau.

Wren very much wants to find out this guilt, because the existence of this person is very likely to expose his share, and if he doesn't get rid of it, he will become the target of Shadow Blade's revenge in the future.

Now Ferion actually said that he hadn't found out, which made him feel a sense of crisis in his heart.

You know, Halken is only a few minutes dead, and the body is still alive.

There is also a sign of Suffman, who had previously been lurking at the Silver Star Academy, and the academy's report treats Suffman as a missing person, believing that he was killed by Shadowblade that night.

Apparently, Sofman saw that something was wrong and also fled.

At least two of Loshi's followers survived, and maybe there were many more, but for a short time, they didn't dare to take the lead in Longshand.

Wren doesn't have a headache, it's really a lot of trouble!

Felion knew what he was worried about, but he couldn't find out what he couldn't do, so he could only comfort him softly: "You have to be more careful." ”

"Thank you, Director. Wren smiled bitterly.

The two talked for a few more moments, and the car took Wren to the door of the Silver Star Academy, and then turned around and left.

After spending most of the day in the big library, Wren came out in the evening.

"Mr. Wren. ”

A man who looked like a butler was at the gate of the academy and stepped forward and shouted respectfully.

Wren stopped and looked at the man, sure he didn't know him.

The other party continued: "Mr. Wren, Viscount Perry wants to invite Mr. Wren to get in the car and talk, I don't know if it's convenient?"

As he spoke, he pointed to a luxurious carriage parked across the street, carved with the coat of arms of the nobility, drawn by four handsome black horses, which was very eye-catching.

"Viscount Perry?"

Wren suddenly remembered, isn't this the father of Driss who prevented him from entering the demon slayer team in the first place? It is said that he is still a wealthy man with a large number of Longshande, the deputy director of the Finance and Taxation Bureau, and a rich and powerful man.

What is he looking for himself?

It's been almost two months since Driss's affair, and it's too late to come forward now?

Wren's eyes scanned the carriage, there was no mystery, it was just a carriage, and there was only one ordinary person in the carriage, which should be the Viscount Perry.

He nodded to the butler and walked to the carriage.

The butler quickly followed, opened the door in front, and asked Wren to go up.

"Mr. Wren. A thin man rose slightly in the carriage, with a kind smile on his face, his complexion was good, and he was well maintained, wearing a suitable expensive dress, but his eyes were slightly cloudy, and there were wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and he looked a little old, at least more than fifty years old.

Ordinary humans, once they are past the age of fifty, because of the torture of the Blood Soul Curse, their physical state will decline sharply.

He held out his hand and introduced himself: "I'm Perilian Ansel, first time we've met. ”

Wren shook his hand, "Viscount Perry." ”

As he spoke, he looked at it with the eye of his soul, and sure enough, the viscount's soul was a little weak, far less stable than that of a normal person, which was a characteristic of old age and frailty.

Wren didn't greet him, this person who was also an enemy with himself, so he didn't need to be polite, and asked directly: "What are you looking for me?"

Viscount Perry didn't care in the slightest, didn't go around in circles, nodded and said: "Don't get me wrong, Mr. Rennes, I have no malicious intentions, I just want to make a deal with you when I visit today." ”

"What deal?"

"I heard that Mr. Wren is looking for a demon soul with a thunderbolt affinity?" Viscount Perry asked tentatively, and when he saw Wren's eyes change, he immediately explained: "Yesterday, Mr. Wren bought a demon soul of the Swift Shadow Thunder Blade Leopard in my shop, and the shopkeeper reported it to me, so I will know." ”

"It turns out that the Demon Soul Shop belongs to His Excellency the Viscount. ”

Reth's face softened slightly, he heard Pollock say that the Leansel family ran the largest demon soul farm in Longshande, and asked, "Do you have news of the Thunder and Lightning affinity?"

"Yes. Viscount Perry said with confidence: "Mr. Wren may have heard of it, I have a large-scale demon soul breeding farm under my name, and there are more than a dozen kinds of demon souls cultivated, and the Swift Shadow Thunder Blade Leopard is one of them, and the one that Mr. Ren bought is from the farm." ”

Wren nodded, his heart fluttering.

Viscount Perry said: "The Swift Shadow Thunderblade Leopard is difficult to domesticate, and it has a long adult cycle, so there are not many of them, and there are no more than a hundred in total in the farm. ”

"These demon leopards can be used as both mounts and rangers' companions, and each one is precious. ”

"A few years ago, an extremely powerful Thunder Blade Leopard was cultivated in the farm, whose strength was equivalent to that of a third-level transcendent, and it was very likely to be promoted to a mid-level demonic beast. ”

When Viscount Perry said this, he deliberately paused, but seeing that Wren didn't say anything on his face, he was not particularly anxious, and continued with some embarrassment: "Mr. Wren should know that the mid-level Thunder Blade Leopard has a probability of producing thunder and lightning affinity, and this Thunder Blade Leopard is like this. ”

"The soul connoisseur in the farm has identified it, and at least more than half of the chances that there will be a thunder and lightning affinity. ”

Wren was unmoved, and just asked lightly, "And then?"

"Uh......" Viscount Perry hesitated for a few moments, then said, "Its strength grew beyond our expectations, and it took advantage of the guards' negligence to kill several of its kind, and then fled. ”

Wren was not a little speechless, "When did you go?"

"The year before last. ”

Viscount Perry only said when the Thunderblade Leopard fled, but did not indicate where he fled, apparently not wanting to say it yet.

Wren understood his thoughts, was silent for a few breaths, and sneered: "You just said that you wanted to make a deal with me, did you use this news?"

"Of course not. Viscount Perry seemed confident, "If Mr. Wren agrees to the deal, I can provide more detailed information." ”

"Well, what do you want?" Wren asked patiently.

"Mr. Wren's friendship. Viscount Perry's answer was unexpected, and his eyes were full of sincerity. There was a few sneers on Wren's face, "Viscount Perry is really good at laughing. ”

"No, I'm serious. ”

Viscount Perry said: "I know, Driss had a feud with Mr. Wren and had a grudge, but it was just a trivial matter, I have already reprimanded Driss, he is still recuperating from his injuries, and when he recovers from his injuries, he will personally come to Mr. Wren to apologize." ”

"I'm afraid Driss won't be so willing, right?" Wren scoffed.

"He has to listen to me. A hint of fierceness flashed in Viscount Perry's eyes, "I have already arranged a marriage for him last month, and I will get married after the New Year, and I will definitely not let him pester Lady Viola again." ”

Wren was still unimpressed, "What's in it for you about my friendship?"

Viscount Perry was speechless.

In fact, before this, he didn't have any good feelings for Wren who injured his son, and even had some resentment, but because of Wren's relationship with Viola, there were also rumors in the security bureau that Wren knew a legendary witcher, so he didn't dare to retaliate two months ago, so he could only endure it.

Yesterday, the owner of the Demon Soul Shop came to report, so he had the heart to investigate.

It turned out that in the past few months, Wren had bought Demon Souls in the market three times. This means that Wren has been promoted to a third-level wizard in such a short period of time!

What a terrible talent this is!

When Wren was at level one, he was able to defeat Driss at level four, and now he has been promoted to level three, and he is not sure how many times stronger than before.

Viscount Perry was afraid that after Driss recovered from his injuries, he would provoke Wren again and kill himself.

For his high hopes, the only eldest son who has become a transcendent, Riansel's hope for the future, Viscount Perry does not dare to have any negligence, and can only prevent it from happening.

For this reason, he also gave Driss a special lesson last night and warned him to stay away from Wren.

Viscount Perry wasn't really afraid of Wren, but felt that he could still get some benefits by taking the opportunity to repair his relationship with Wren.

But now it seems that Wren is a little unconvinced.

Wren's soul eye saw Viscount Perry's thread clearly, and it was obvious that the other party was not telling the truth. Even if he can't look at the soul color, he doesn't believe in nonsense like "getting friendship".

Businessmen are unprofitable and can't afford to be early, how can they give themselves benefits in vain.

He laughed and said, "Viscount Perry, if you have nothing else to say, then I will take my leave first." ”

"Wait a minute, please. ”

Viscount Perry gritted his teeth and took out a stack of golden tickets from the secret cabinet under his seat.

Wren took a look, there were ten golden tickets in this stack, each with a face value of 1,000 gold, a total of 10,000 gold, which was a huge wealth that ordinary people could not earn in a lifetime.

"After the New Year, Ms. Carroll will be retiring. Viscount Perry whispered, "I hope Lady Viola will speak for me in front of Director Carroll." ”

Wren laughed, thinking to himself that this was so.

Ms. Carol in Viscount Perry's mouth is the director of the Longshande Finance and Taxation Bureau, and the immediate boss of Viscount Perry. The woman, who was in charge of the finances of Longshande and a member of the Duke's family, was an ordinary person, over sixty years old, and could not continue to hold such an important position, so she was ready to retire.

Ms. Carroll stepped down, and I don't know how many people were staring at the fat director's throne.

Carroll has a big say in who will be his successor.

Duke Silver Star also made a statement that in order to thank Carol for her decades of service, he would respect her choice.

In the past few months, Carol has refused to meet with waves of people without revealing any words. Carol never married and had no children, and the only one who could talk to her and was closest to her was Viola, who was also a member of the Duke's family.

Because she is Viola's father's only sister, which is Viola's aunt.

Obviously, Viscount Perry also took a fancy to the position of director.

Wren shook his head and said, "It's useless for you to look for me, you want Viola to speak for you, why don't you go to see Viola in person?"

"Ms. Viola refused to see me. ”

Viscount Perry smiled wryly, he was well aware of the relationship between Wren and Viola, and knew that it was caused by Driss offending Wren.

"If Mr. Wren can tell Lady Viola on my behalf and ask her to meet with me, this ticket will be your reward. I will also tell you about the news about the Thunderblade Leopard, whether it can be made or not. Viscount Perry said sincerely, handing over the money.

Wren thought about it for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay, you wait for my news." ”

He didn't collect the money immediately and got out of the carriage directly.
