Chapter 618: Undercurrent

In the room behind the Harvest Church, Emlin, who had been freed from the "shadow" of Bishop Utravsky, breathed a sigh of relief and said to Klein in front of him:

"The cerebral mutation of the pituitary gland and its blood of the Hunter of a Thousand Faces, the asking price within our bloodline is 2,000 pounds for the former and 300 pounds for 100 ml of the latter, for a total of 2,300 pounds."

2300? Cheaper than I expected...... But aside from the deposit I had staked on Sharon to buy the "Human Skin Shadow Trait", I didn't have enough gold pounds...... And Miss "Justice"'s next "bounty" can only be delivered after the New Year......

After thinking about it, Klein asked tentatively:

"Can it be cheaper?"

"No, if it weren't for me, you'd have to spend at least £2,800 to get your hands on it! According to the agreement, you will have to pay me an additional £150, for a total of £2,450. Emlyn shook her head.

Glancing at Klein's expression, he hurriedly added:

"In this day and age, dragons are scarce and rare, and you'd be hard-pressed to find similar extraordinary materials anywhere else except for the long-lived bloodline, and even if they did, they would be more expensive than that."

So the shortfall is about 1,300 gold pounds...... Luckily, tomorrow I'll go and sign an agreement for the transfer of shares in the bicycle company with Mr. Frankie Cage, who was introduced by Talim...... That's about £1,200, and I can make up for it...... It's just that the years ago may be a little tighter.

I hope that Mr. "Hanged Man" will sell the extraordinary characteristics of "Werewolf" as soon as possible!

Fortunately, the characteristics of the human skin shadow and the hair of the deep sea Naga have almost been finalized, and the deposit has been given, with Sharon staring, I don't think anything will go wrong...... Klein's thoughts were full of thoughts, and he felt that the light outside the window had dimmed a lot.

He took a deep breath and said:

"Good.

"But the deal was delayed for a few days, and I needed some time to raise funds."

"There's no problem, I can keep it for you for a while, and when you raise enough money, just come to me directly."

Because he had been commissioned by Hézel to help her understand the "fraud", Klein often came to the Harvest Church because Emlyn was already familiar with him and could be regarded as friends, so he was willing to take the risk to advance the funds, and did not even ask for an advance payment.

"By the way......" At this time, Emlyn seemed to remember something, and lowered his voice again:

"Mr. Private Detective, you, who are often exposed to all kinds of intelligence and information, do you know Baron Larry? It is said that he entered Beckland, and if his whereabouts can be found, I can give you a fifty discount on that material. ”

Do you, or the Bloods, want to wade into Larry's troubled waters? I don't know who is behind him, but I don't think you, a Sequence 7 vampire, can interfere...... Klein gave him a strange look and asked as usual:

"What are you asking Baron Larry for?"

Emlyn sighed and whispered, "An elder of my clan said that Baron Larry may be hiding the secret of the 'Ghost Empire'...... And the 'Full Moon Queen' of our Bloodclan has an important item left there...... If I can retrieve it, maybe the elders of the clan will help me dispel the psychological suggestion. ”

Are you sure that so-called elder of yours is not cheating on you? No matter how this sounds, it sounds like deliberately leaking information to you, and then using you as cannon fodder......

Klein glanced at Emlyn with pity, then thought for a moment before admonishing with a solemn expression:

"Baron Larry's affairs may be a bit complicated, and he may not really know the clues of the 'Ghost Empire'...... And among the people who are tracking him, there may even be demigods. ”

At least that "White Saintess" is the real Sequence 3!

Emlyn was taken aback by Klein's words, and he subconsciously asked, "Really? ”

"It's not hard to speculate that the value of the 'Ghost Empire' is enough to make the demigods' hearts move." Klein didn't answer directly, only a fact.

Emling suddenly wilted like a deflated ball, and said no more, even Crane waved his hand goodbye to him.

When he walked out of the back room and returned to the prayer hall, Klein found that the young man who had just come out of the basement and had a good conversation with Bishop Utravsky had left with the believers who had eaten the sacrament, leaving Hézel crouching at the table and copying something.

Well, although I can't see it clearly, I can tell from her writing gesture that Hazel is transcribing Russelvin again......

While thinking so, Crane walked in the direction of Hazel, although it is very likely that the other party was just copying those diaries that he had read, but what if it was new today? Isn't that earned?

Glancing at Klein approaching, through the previous experience of studying "fraud" together, Hazel knew that he was also interested in "Russelwin" and took the initiative to say: "That gentleman just heard that I like to copy Russelvin, so he left a new page of text...... Although it is a little strange, it is much neater than the previous Russelwyn notes......"

Really? Crane was overjoyed, and hurriedly walked closer, looked sideways, and then ...... Lines of familiar handwriting appeared in front of his eyes: "The mountain is not high, but the name of the immortal." The water is not deep, but the dragon is ......"

This is exactly the "Burrow" that he used to temporarily "perfunctory" Mr. Ta before several tarot meetings......

This page of the diary went round and round and came back to me...... Is this "cause and effect" in some sense?

Klein secretly laughed at himself and was about to look away, but he quickly reacted, and one thing came to mind from this page of the diary:

Wait a minute...... This page of the diary was given to Hézel by the gentleman just now......

The handwriting of this diary is exactly the same as mine, and it is obviously a "photocopy" of the original version written down by the "tower......

Isn't that gentleman Mr. Tower?

He's done with business? Also disguised identity to come to Beckland?

Thinking of this, Klein casually asked, as if unintentionally, "Do you know what that gentleman is called?" I forgot to ask when I just said hello......"

Hazel replied without raising his head: "He calls himself Mark? Spector, is a knight......

"It's a little strange, most knights nowadays prefer to be called Lord."

But after hearing the name, Klein slandered:

"'Moon Knight'? Combined with the kind of spirituality that he had before that that was somewhat similar to Emlin's, it was also appropriate......

"Well, this behavior of using superheroes as a code name should be 'tower' That's right!"

……

West End, in the study on the third floor of the Intis Embassy.

The envoy, Mr. Owen, took a sip of highland coffee from the southern continent and said to the secretary beside him:

"Bianca did a good job...... Through her efforts over the past few weeks, I have roughly tested the reason why the Rune military has been letting Baron Larry go. ”

The red-haired secretary obviously had some Sauron blood, and although he was only a secretary at the moment, it was very likely that he would stay on Beckland on the recommendation of Mr. Special Envoy to assist the next ambassador, so he listened very carefully at this time.

"Can you elaborate on that?" The red-haired secretary said respectfully, "I haven't been able to draw any conclusions from the information she sent......"

"According to the information obtained by Bianca, Baron Larry did not actually get 'Daniel's Treasure', and the person who actually opened that chest was Prince Mountbatten!

"And His Royal Highness the Prince has now invested in the Storm Church, and it is very likely that that the secret will be obtained by the Storm Church.

"But this is a statement that other forces that covet the 'Ghost Empire' may not believe it......

"Therefore, the Rune military allowed Baron Larry to escape from the beginning, and then pursued him passively, in order to let him eventually fall into the hands of other forces, and then get the truth from him...... This is more convincing than a mere explanation. ”

At this point, Mr. Envoy smiled sarcastically and continued, "That should have been their original purpose.

"From the moment this man came into contact with Larry, I knew that George III was still reluctant to give up his son and wanted to find someone to blame!

"Oh, that's naïve......

"How is it possible to please the three major churches as Larry?"

King George III has really lived up to the president's high opinion of him!

The red-haired secretary didn't know what Mr. Envoy was thinking, and he glanced blankly at the name of the person on the other finger's finger - this was the page of Bianca's report.

"It's ...... Prince Edsak's butler? ”

……

At the same time, George III, seated on the throne of the king, asked his adviser:

"Owen is convinced?"

"Man is always willing to believe that he has found out or reasoned that he has fallen into your trap." Mr. Advisor smiled and nodded.

"Good!" George III said with satisfaction, "Although he is also a member of the Order, since he is the one who plots against me first, it is reasonable for me to fight back......

"This is also more in line with the development of the times."

……

In the ancient hall above the gray mist, Crane, who was sitting in the seat of the "Fool", received a message from his only true relative:

"What if Miss Elsa, whom Larry entrusted me to monitor, has no job, but is always in and out of luxury stores, and has a huge daily expenses, and is suspected of being the mistress of a certain big man?"

- When Klein went to Lina and Shoko's restaurant to eat before, he found that they were not too far from the villa where the target of the fake Larry's surveillance lived, so he issued an investigation mission to them as the thief "Black Emperor", but he didn't expect the results to be so soon.

Mistress of the big shot? What the hell is the man pretending to be Baron Larry trying to do?
