Chapter 731: Straight to the point

The Bloody Lady obviously hadn't dealt with someone like Leo who spoke so directly, and she was stunned for a long time before she returned to normal, and then the embarrassment on her face was retracted, revealing a polite smile, and said, "Our Quivan family is very willing to be friends with you, Mr. Leo, and do something beneficial to each other. ”

Seeing that the other party still had such a set of formulaic words, Leo sighed a little helplessly, and then simply said straight to the point: "The reason you came to me is because of what I did in that collapsed apartment building before, right?"

At this moment, the Bloody Lady felt a sense of grievance, and all the words she had prepared were now blocked in her chest because of Leo's opening, which made her feel for the first time that there was something wrong with the words she had mastered before, because now she had completely lost control over the direction of the conversation, and could only react passively to Leo's words, just like now she didn't know what to say, so she could only nod her head and admit Leo's inference.

"I'm not interested in the victims, I'm not a vindicator or a paladin, and I don't have any sympathy to investigate things and cause trouble, so you don't have to worry about anything. As for your faith, I'm not interested in what your blood clan wants to do," Leo very directly opened up all the things that could not be seen in the light, put them on the surface, and said: "I came to Moonlight City mainly to participate in last night's auction and buy something, and I have already bought it, and the main purpose of coming here has been accomplished. In the afternoon, I will be invited to visit the White Swan Castle and study the mysteries of the White Swan Castle foundation to see if I can find out the secrets. However, whether or not I can find the secret, I will leave tomorrow and will not pay attention to anything that happens in your Moonlight City, even if Moonlight City is destroyed after I leave, I will not look back, now Your Excellency the Ladyess, do you understand?"

After listening to Leo's words, the Bloody Lady sat across from her in a daze, not knowing what to say or how to react, and her previous experience was useless in the face of Leo's direct and reckless way of talking.

She didn't know if she should believe Leo's words, if what Leo said was true, and he wasn't interested in what happened to Moonlight City and the Bloodline, then it was naturally the best, but if these words were false, then they would need to face a tower wizard of unknown strength and a core member of the witch group, which was the last thing they wanted to see, and it was likely to affect the success or failure of the plan.

For this reason, the Bloody Lady also began to analyze Leo's words word by word, wanting to follow up on her own ability to see if she could analyze Leo's duplicity.

But before she could analyze a reason, she was a little frightened by a small part of Leo's words that was almost overlooked, and couldn't help but feel worried, and confirmed to Leo: "Mr. Leo, you just said that my faith ......"

"The god of clever words. Leo didn't go around in circles, and went straight to the point.

The Bloody Lady gasped, because the Cultists of the Divine Sect of Clever Words were definitely her big secret, and no one else knew about it except for a few insiders in the clan, because if this matter spread, it would be an extremely dangerous thing for the Kuifan family and her.

Thinking of this, the Bloody Lady couldn't help but feel an urge to solve Leo and let the matter continue to be hidden.

"Do you want to kill me to hide the secret of your belief in the god of words?" But before the Bloody Lady could make any moves, Leo's voice entered her ears again, "Are you sure you can kill me, or make things worse?"

The Bloody Lady suddenly had the illusion that she was being seen through by the other party from the inside out, and this feeling of being suppressed in all directions made her extremely uncomfortable.

"I repeat, I don't like to cause trouble, provided there is no trouble to provoke me. Leo said in a more accentuated tone.

The Bloody Lady took a deep breath, suppressed the discomfort in her heart, and then asked with a cold face, "Since Your Excellency has repeatedly emphasized that you don't want to cause trouble, then why did Your Excellency go to that abandoned factory again? ”

Leo replied simply: "I have a deal with Beluvuf, but the deal is done, and now I have nothing to do with the werewolves. ”

The Bloody Lady had no way to question or refute Leo's words, because she didn't know what deal Leo had with Beluvuf, so she could only use a strong tone and say something that didn't threaten her, "I hope Mr. Leo can do what he says, and our blood clan doesn't want to have any misunderstanding with the Witch Group because of Your Excellency." ”

Leo didn't respond again, just smiled.

The carriage fell into an awkward silence, and the Bloody Lady, unable to stand it, put on a large hat covering her head, stopped the carriage, went down alone, and then ordered the coachman to take Leo to her destination and then turn back to pick her up, as if she were hiding from some terrible monster.

After the Bloody Lady left, Leo leaned back in his chair and carefully recalled the Bloody Lady's demeanor and words just now, he could feel the temptation from the Bloody Lady, but this roundabout temptation was obviously disrupted by Leo's straightforward words, making the Bloody Lady always out of a state of aberration.

Leo didn't know if his direct and true statement could be accepted by the Blood Clan, but he had already made his attitude clear, if the Blood Clan still didn't believe it, then he had no choice, as long as the Blood Clan didn't take the initiative to come to him for trouble, he shouldn't have any conflict with the Blood Clan, after these two days, when he left Moonlight City, even if he really left this undercurrent surging maelstrom.

Perhaps because of the special markings on the Bloody Lady's carriage, the carriage traveled very fast on the streets, and the other carriages on the road would actively avoid the carriage, which made Leo arrive at Mister Street much faster than expected.

Mister Street is one of the few streets named after people in Moonlight City, this street is mainly in honor of Kevin Mister, the planner of Moonlight City, and now the main urban area of Moonlight City is built and planned, which is designed for urban planners, and at the entrances at both ends of Mister Street, Kevin Mister stands and sits two statues.

In addition, at the beginning, Mister Street was a street of architects' offices, because of the strong support of the Quavan family, a school of architecture was opened on Mister Street, which is also the best architectural school in the Kingdom of Mares, and most of the architects who graduated from the school of architecture will open offices on this street and several surrounding streets, or work in other people's offices, thus making it a mecca for architects in Minsk for a period of time.

However, due to the increase in the population of Moonlight City and the urban renewal, Mister Street was no longer suitable for housing the School of Architecture, so the city moved the Mister School of Architecture to the outskirts of the city, and those studios were also moved, and Mister Street lost its luster and became an ordinary commercial street.

The merchants on this street are almost all individual workshop-style merchants, with residences upstairs and workshops and shops downstairs, and all kinds of clothing, food, housing and transportation can be bought here, so it is not very remarkable to open a bookstore on such a street.

The Collector's Bookstore is the name of the bookstore Leo was looking for, but after finding the bookstore, Leo took a second look at the name of the bookstore engraved on the billboard. Although there is a Mares language underneath the name, the text of the name is in Gulait, a lost mainland language of ancient Minsk, and the word collection in this language has two meanings, one is collection and the other is protection, so it is not wrong to call this bookstore the Protector.

"Preserve knowledge?" Leo pondered in his mind the deeper meaning of the bookstore, then nodded approvingly, pushed the door and walked in.

Compared with the hustle and bustle of the street outside, the bookstore seems very quiet, which does not mean that there are no customers in the bookstore, on the contrary, there are many customers in the bookstore, although it is not completely full, but at least seventy percent of the chairs have been made of people, everyone ordered a cup of tea, a little heart, and then quietly read the book in the bookstore, the overall atmosphere is very good.

After Leo came in, the waiter behind the counter at the door came up to him and asked what kind of service Leo needed.

"I'm looking for Miss Ylan. Leo said.

"Who are you?" the waiter didn't immediately tell Ylan, but looked at Leo with a little wariness.

Leo introduced himself, "My name is Leo Dodd, and I am on the same ...... as Miss Ylan. ”

"Ah! It's Mr. Leo. Before Leo finished speaking, the waiter showed a look of understanding, smiled and said, "Please come with me." ”

After speaking, he led Leo upstairs, and the two soon came to the third floor, where the waiter knocked on the stairs facing the only door on the third floor.

A crack opened in the door, and a man cautiously peeked out, and when he saw the waiter, he asked, "Is there something wrong?"

"Mr. Leo Dodd has come to Miss Ylan. The waiter stepped out of the way, revealing Leo Dodd behind him.

After seeing Leo Dodd, the man behind the door was stunned, and then looked at the waiter with some displeasure, as if he was blaming the waiter for not bringing Leo upstairs.

But with outsiders present, he couldn't blame the waiter, so he could only say coldly: "I know, you can go down." ”

However, the waiter did not leave immediately, and still stood in place.

"Anything else?" asked the man behind the door, a little impatiently.

"There is not enough tea in the shop, and we need to replenish the stock," the waiter pouted and said, "In addition, we haven't bought new books for a while, and customers have been asking if there are any new books recently, I heard that a batch of new books just arrived yesterday, and I think we should go closer." ”

"Okay! Just do what you want. The man behind the door said impatiently.

"I wanted to do it too, but I didn't have enough money in the store. The waiter said dissatisfied.

"Isn't there enough money?" the man behind the door was stunned, then closed the door casually, and after a while, opened the door through a crack, handed out a cash check from the local bank, and said, "Is there anything else?

The waitress took the cash check and looked at the numbers on it, smiled with satisfaction, and didn't need the urging of the person behind the door, she jumped downstairs.

When there were only two of them left, the person behind the door just opened the door a crack, looked at Leo through the crack, and said, "Hello, the old version of Collector's Bookstore Ross Pfister." ”

"Hello, I'm Leo Dodd. Leo didn't care about the other party's faux pas, and introduced himself.

"I heard Ilan mention you, Ilan is not here now, Ilan will be back in a while, you can wait here for a while. As he spoke, Ross Pfister took out a metal watering can from behind the door, placed it outside the door, and said, "Inside the watering can is my homemade disinfectant, please spray it." ”

Hearing the other party's request, Leo was stunned, although from the point of view of behavior, this Ross Pfister looks like a cleanliness patient, and it is a very serious kind, but Leo can see from some details that the other party does not seem to be clean, and the most significant feature is that the other party is not wearing gloves.

Despite his doubts, Leo still picked up the watering can on the ground and sprayed it a few times.

A strong smell of water fell on his body, and Leo almost didn't need to analyze it seriously to confirm that this was not disinfectant water at all, but insect repellent water.

Seeing Leo spraying potion on his body, Ross Pfister behind the door relaxed a little, and then opened the door to the extent that one person could enter, and urged Leo to come in quickly.

As soon as Leo walked in with his front foot, Rose Pfister couldn't wait to close the door with his back foot, and then quickly picked up some dust from the door and sprinkled it on the doorway.

Ordinary people would only think that Ross Pfister was a strange person when they saw the other party's behavior, but Leo knew very well that the other party's practice should be a shamanic exorcism ritual, and the dust next to the door was simply human ashes.

This discovery also made Leo curious, and with this curiosity, Leo looked at the room on the third floor, only to see that the entire room on the third floor had been opened up and turned into a large room, judging from the facilities here, this room should have served as a living room and a conference room.

However, Leo's attention was not focused on the function of the room, but on the various furnishings that spread all over the walls of the room, especially near the windows.

Although he is not an expert on shamanism in Mozambiam, he has more knowledge and mysteries about shamanism than most experts.

It was this knowledge that allowed him to easily identify the strange ornaments scattered throughout the room, all of which were shamanic amulets from different wasteland tribes, and the sheer variety of them had covered almost all the tribes of Mozambia who had contact with the civilized world.
