Chapter 9: The second order of the pawnshop
Andre's sudden visit last night was not without any contribution other than allowing Ellis to install a B with the help of the Absolute Realm.
It was because of his arrival that Ellis discovered a real hole in the pawnshop system.
That is the absolute realm bound to Jiang's pawnshop, and he must be in it himself to open it.
As long as he is not within the fifty-meter range of action given to the pawn shop by the system, this incomparable field of Niu X is like those formations that have not been activated in Xianxia novels, and will not play the role of a caretaker.
So when Ellis had to go out in order to prevent him from having trouble in the future, he was raided by the enemy.
Early in the morning, a job posting was posted in front of the pawn shop, intending to hire a ...... for himself to take care of the home.
No, it's to hire an assistant for yourself, so that you can notify him in time when you go out and someone happens to come to find fault.
And in his previous life, as a very forceful innkeeper, he was also very dissatisfied with the layout of the old-fashioned pawnshop in the pawn shop!
Thinking that this would make the customers who enter the store feel depressed, so with the help of the all-powerful absolute realm, according to the style of a high-end club, the pawn shop has been turned upside down.
After some renovation, the first floor not only has an additional business area and a so-called rest area, but also a few pots of greenery are placed in the corridor and along the wall.
The old incandescent lamps on the roof have been replaced with sleek and bright crystal chandeliers, and the cheap sofa and coffee table have been replaced by the latest leather sofas on TV commercials, and the solid wood tables that match the size of the sofas.
Now send the waiter, no, it's the boss's assistant who takes office, and you can open the door to receive guests who come to pawn items!
"In this way, it is really much more pleasing to the eye!"
Ellis admired his masterpiece for a moment before nodding in satisfaction and getting up to go out to solve his breakfast problem.
Unfortunately, he didn't notice that Will was sitting in the Cadillac that had been parked across the street from the pawn shop and hadn't moved for more than half an hour.
"Will, are you sure Emily recovered because of him?" When Ellis was already far away, Samuel, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned his head to look at Will, who was sandwiched between two men in suits in the back seat.
"Mr. Samuel, I can swear that Emily did recover suddenly after I signed a contract with Ellis to pawn souls." Will looked down at the two Glock pistols that were pressed against his waist from one left to the other, and smiled at Samuel that was worse than crying.
"Will, it's not that I don't want to believe you, it's just that what you said is really a bit unbelievable and unbelievable!"
After Samuel sighed, his face quickly turned cold, and then he took out a pistol from his suit pocket and put it on his head: "Since you pawned your soul to him, then why are you still alive, or let me help you complete this so-called soul transaction completely, right?" ”
"Don't kill me, don't kill me, Mr. Samuel, I swear I'm telling the truth, Ellis said that he won't take my soul until I die, and he also said that from now on, my soul will belong to the Jiang pawnshop." After being pointed at the third gun, Will broke down completely, sobbing and incoherently assuring Samuel.
Seeing that Will was still biting the so-called soul pawn, Samuel was almost angry with him and had a heart attack, if it weren't for Lily, he would have really collapsed Will who pretended to be crazy and stupid with one shot.
Pawn the soul, do you think this is making a mythological movie in Hollywood?
Fortunately, Cadillac's car phone rang, and Samuel put down the gun in his hand and picked up the phone.
"Mr. Samuel?" The person on the other end of the line was cautious, he had to confirm Samuel's identity first.
"It's me, did Will go to Jiang's pawnshop yesterday?" Samuel didn't ink with the other party, so he asked about the business directly, and deliberately glanced at Will in the back seat.
"Mr. Samuel, through the investigation of the surveillance on the streets of Hotton, it can be determined that Will did go to Jiang's pawnshop yesterday morning, he stayed in the store for about an hour before leaving, and then took a taxi directly to the city hospital."
"So, is it really possible that this Ellis Jiang has something to do with Emily?"
"Mr. Samuel, the owner of this pawn shop is indeed not simple. When we looked at the surveillance footage, we found that Andrei of the Russian gangster had come to him with people last night. However, the strange thing is that there is no footage of Andre and them leaving in the surveillance! ”
"I see!"
Samuel didn't ask who Andrei of the Russian gangster was, because he knew that in less than half an hour, Andrei's details would appear on his desk.
After hanging up the phone, Samuel thought for a while, took off the Patek Philippe on his wrist, and then said to the driver: "Inform car No. 2 to come and increase the number of people, and I will personally see this 'supernatural' pawn shop later." ”

When Ellis walked two streets, ate a breakfast of soy milk fritters at the Chinese restaurant where he packed the food last night, and ordered lunch for himself to take out by the way, and slowly returned to the pawnshop.
I found that before I went to eat breakfast, someone was already looking at the recruitment sign that was hung up.
It's a pity that I'm a little older, and my appearance is not good, so I don't quite meet the recruitment conditions I listed!
When Ellis disliked Samuel's age and the generation gap between him and himself, he didn't know that Samuel's heart had been turned upside down by his nonsense job posting.
"This pawnshop is aware of not only the existence of mutants, but also the existence of non-humans......"
"Sir, may I ask you what is the matter? Are you looking for a job, or are you here to pawn items? Ellis looked at the middle-aged man in front of him for a moment before he stepped forward and asked as he pushed open the door of the pawn shop.
"Ah, I'm ......, I'm not looking for a job, I'm here to pawn things." After being awakened by Ellis's questioning, Samuel found that the owner of the pawn shop had returned, and hurriedly forced himself to calm down.
"It turned out to be a pawn thing! Then please come in ......"
When Samuel followed Ellis into the pawn shop, was arranged to sit down in the trading area, and waited for Ellis to prepare coffee, he almost thought that he had entered the wrong place and arrived at a high-end club!
Because of the layout and decoration of the store, it doesn't look like a pawn shop that has been open for decades and has been passed down for four generations!
Safe, no; containers, no; Counter, still no!
There are a lot of expensive furniture in the private club, such as Capanelli's sofa and table, Armania's carpet and GE General Electric's latest pure copper chandelier, the decoration of the house is simply extravagant!
