Chapter 127: Cheap Maid
"I remember you were called ...... Esther, yes?"
"Yes sir, we met in the North District the other day when you stepped into a very dangerous area, so I ...... myself"
"Shhhh
With his index finger in front of his lips, Bill silences the ability to talk about the mysterious world in public, especially in big cities.
"Don't talk nonsense, you're here to find me, what's the matter. ”
"Well, actually, last time you told me not to do divination, but I don't know anything but divination, maybe you can help me find a suitable job in this city. ”
Esther said this nervously, and she was just looking for a reason in a whim, of course she was embarrassed to say that she was just trying to see him.
"Helping you find a job?"
"Yes, yes, I actually grew up in the countryside, and my mother was a ...... My mother brought me up alone, but I always dreamed of being part of human society, no, I mean living in a big city. ”
Bill frowned, though he was a shadow creature with a grudge, it seemed like it was beyond his power to help people find a job.
At the moment, the only company he knows is the new editor, but Bill doesn't want to just help the new editor get through the difficult time, and insert someone who doesn't know anything into it, including Shawei's side.
Looking at Esther's head-to-toe clothing, she has just evolved from primitive society to Homo sapiens, and even if this kind of old-fashioned woman goes to a clothing store to apply for a job, no one can leave her.
This kind of random dressing can probably only be a chattering soothsayer, and the shadow is looking at Esther's shadow and nodding to make the same assessment.
"Although she may seem a little innocent to the point of being mentally retarded, she has a special ability to predict the future, and maybe she will know a lot of information that I don't know. 」
"Then there's no need to refuse directly, just help her. 」
"Since you said you live in the country, do you have a place to live tonight?"
“...... Not yet. ”
Esther's tone was a little low, and she could see the impatience in Bill's eyes, as if her presence was a big problem.
"If you think it doesn't matter, my house has a lot of empty rooms to live in, even though you say you don't know anything but divination......
"You should know how to do cleaning. ”
Bill suddenly thought that his family often needed to hire a small town woman to do the cleaning, and hire a capable person as a maid, so that he didn't have to worry about his special ability being exposed.
It can also solve the problem of helping her find a job.
"Of course it will be done, of course it will be done!"
"Sir, would you like to hire me to do things for you?"
Esther instantly perked up, and a bright smile bloomed on her face.
Creatures who fall into unrequited love have zero IQs, even less so fortune tellers with little social experience, and the disparity between wealth and emotional giving, makes Esther feel that he is a vulnerable group, and he thinks it is a privilege to be recognized by Bill.
"It depends on whether you want to or not, my house does need a maid to clean the house, as long as you do your job well, I will not limit you to the rest of the time. ”
"Annual salary...... 3 gold pounds, eat and live. ”
Bill gave her a mental price for the miner's salary and the status of the fortune teller, and it was up to her to decide whether she accepted it or not, but as long as she was given a job, he would fulfill Esther's request and repay her for helping him leave the mirror space.
"I do!"
Without any time to think, Esther agreed directly, and Bill didn't know how to describe this inexplicable woman, so he could only nod and leave the Oriental restaurant.
Esther followed closely behind Bill, looking at his straight and handsome back, his heart was full of joy, and his heart was full of deer.
She didn't expect that she would be able to live in the lover's house of her dreams just by casually, and solve the problem of eating and working by the way, she only felt very lucky at the moment!
May was still in the kitchen and watched, watching the infatuated Esther and the indifferent Bill, and watching them leave the restaurant's door, before she burst out laughing, knowing that she had found interesting gossip.
"May, what are you laughing at?"
The typical oriental-looking master had just finished arranging the kitchen utensils and looked out the window strangely, but at the moment Bill and Esther had left, and he didn't see anything.
"No big master ......"
"Ah, it's a guest again, I'm going out to receive it!"
As soon as she ran out of the back kitchen, Mei was still energetic to receive the guests who entered the store.
It's just that this guest looks different, dressed in tattered monastic robes, carrying a bag in his hand, limping and staggering at the table.
"Welcome, guest, please ask what you need ......"
"Little girl, is there anything strange that happened to you here, I can feel its presence, and I hope you will answer my questions honestly. ”
"Huh?"
Faced with this man full of low air pressure, Mei unconsciously tensed, holding the menu tightly with both hands, not knowing what he was talking about.
"Guest, it's ...... in your mouth"
"Mei, go back and rest first, I'll greet the guests. ”
With a reassuringly generous palm on his shoulder, the master had left the back kitchen at some point, and came to Edmund, blocking her behind.
Mei obediently climbed the stairs and looked back several times, but could only see the master's broad body blocking the guests, and could not hear them.
It wasn't until Mei returned to the bedroom on the third floor that the master slowly spoke.
"I don't have anyone who violates the rules here, and I don't entertain meals that will sooner or later become a source of evil, you can go. ”
"I just want to ask why the able-bodied people of the Far East came here, and did they flee to Norman for refuge because of a serious crime?"
Edmund sat calmly in his chair, showing no sign of leaving.
During this time, he spent all his time in Britts, looking for each of the capable people hidden in the general population, making sure that they were not wanted by the Church, and that he had not done anything out of the ordinary.
This oriental restaurant is the target of Edmund's attention, he does not trust foreign people, and on the way to this restaurant, he momentarily feels a great evil and ominous.
Whether this evil and ominous came from the man in front of him cannot be confirmed for the time being, but there is indeed an aura on his body that makes Edmund uncomfortable, and Eastern witchcraft has always been regarded as a strange and magical existence by the Ode Holy See.
"Although I don't have a reputation here......"
"But this monk friend, if you think you can identify it at will without any evidence, I will let the Holy See understand the power of the mysterious East!"
Bang –
The muscular arm slammed into the table, instantly sending a gust of wind.
The original kind face of the master was cold, and the eyebrows and faces were full of terror, and the solid wood dining table that had been hit by the master made a crackling sound after a few seconds, and it turned out that it had exploded from the inside, and countless bars of thorny wood jumped out.
Flipping the hem of his shirt quickly to block the wooden bars, and the momentum coming from inside the wooden table continued, Edmund had to get up and move away from the table, not forgetting to bring his bags.
"What's your name. ”
Although he took two steps back when he was attacked by the master, Edmund still maintained his calm and gloomy attitude, he did not come here to cause trouble, but just to prevent trouble.
"You can call me Wang Wu, I repeat it again, don't come to my restaurant again, I just want to open my restaurant quietly, otherwise I don't mind going to war with you directly in the city. ”
"I don't think you want to see that, because it would be the most ominous disaster in your mouth!"
The master chef is full of meat, and he is still wearing a white chef's uniform when stir-frying, which is stained with oil, and he blatantly speaks of threats, and only a pig-killing knife is the image of a butcher.
Edmund closed his eyes, cautiously feeling the fluctuations coming from the master, and a variety of strange colors slowly appeared in his mind, but at the bottom of his mind was a lake of black water like a deep pool.
The lake bubbled and bubbled, and sometimes there was a call from a distant place, but Edmund was unmoved, focusing his attention on him.
The figure of the master master appeared in his mind, and the hazy colors converged on the figure little by little, and an incarnation of shimmering golden light slowly appeared!
Opening his eyes in an instant, Edmund frowned.
"I hope this is not a means for you to hide your true face, I will sit in this city and will never let go of any disaster. ”
Turning to walk out of the door of the Oriental restaurant with his feet sloped, Edmund felt as if he had missed something very important, and he once again covered his perception over Brittus, but did not notice.
Except for the energetic witch hunter imps.
Limping in the direction of the witch hunter imp, Edmund looked a little tired, his perception power could not be used indefinitely, in addition to the great consumption of physical strength, there was also the depletion of willpower and mental power.
If he wavered when using his senses, all that awaited Edmund was to fall into the abyss and become a monster who lost his mind forever.
While the Monk was using his senses to inspect the city, Bill was leaving Brittes with Esther and speeding towards the mountain villa in a horse-drawn carriage, completely unaware of what was happening in the Oriental restaurant.
And after driving Edmund away, the master let out a long breath and sat down in his chair with a worried face, and the butcher's momentum disappeared.
"Master, are you alright?"
I don't know how long it took, Mei peeked out of the stairwell and saw that the strange guest was no longer there, so she went downstairs to the master.
"Master, is someone coming to drive us away again?"
"Don't worry, he's not here to drive us away, and no one will drive us away this time, I swear to you!"
The generous and warm palm slapped on the top of Mei's head, and the master's eyes showed a trace of comfort and worry, but he just buried the worry in the bottom of his heart.
The city seems to be getting more and more chaotic lately, and even the perceiver has been sent here by the Holy See of Ode, and ominous things have risen in his heart.
But what worries him more is the small talk he heard in the restaurant these days.
It seems that the merchants are going to the East to do tobacco business, and if the East refuses their trade requests, these white-skinned people will be forced to open the trade routes!
Looking at Mei beside him, who was still underage, the master sighed deeply.
"Alas......"
