Chapter 723: Bernadette's Net Worth (Gagen)
On the hidden vines outside the villa, Bernadette and Leon the Lion looked at each other for a long time before they spoke, "That girl...... A descendant of the Shire? ”
"Of course! If it weren't for the descendants of that guy Russell, no matter how much that kid asked me, I wouldn't have followed her to protect her for a few days. Leon the Lion said with disdain.
"Protection?" Bernadette looked down, her blue eyes swept away, and her voice sounded softly and calmly, "A threat from the Flais family? Boitno really doesn't seem to care about worldly things anymore. ”
As for Fulles, her impression is still stuck in the illicit relationship between her father and the Countess of Fulles.
"It seems that you have only 'prophesied' this far...... The Fulice family is actually only a minor problem, including the witch and the envoy who are behind the scenes...... It's the hidden stuff that's worth noting...... I don't know whose bureau it is. "Lion," Leon sneered again, and continued, "It is only with you that I can say it with confidence, and I will never dare to speak in the outside world...... Hey, but I guess the detective down there is probably also aware of it, and even deduced some truth. ”
"Abner Blaine? He was special, and when I first met him in the port of Enmat, I 'predicted' his future. But it failed......" Bernadette said after a few seconds of silence.
"It's really special, and it's likely that he has something to do with the 'Calamity Seal'." "Lion," Leon said, gesturing downwards and smiling, "You should be able to perceive that although it was only for a moment, the feeling of an imminent 'party accident' just now is exactly the same as the 'Calamity Seal'. ”
Bernadette nodded, then tilted her head slightly, looked at the house under the vine swing, and said in a soft voice:
"I have other things to do and I can't keep following ...... Can you help me protect that girl and figure out what exists in the design of the Surrey family? ”
"So what's in it for me?" "Lion" Leon said, tilting his head and outlining the corners of his mouth.
"What do you want?" Bernadette asked calmly.
"What properties do you have in Intis?" "Lion," Leon asked.
Bernardette's eyes flashed, and she seemed to guess the purpose of the other party, but she replied anyway: "A lot, real estate in major cities, many estate estates in the countryside, 15% of the shares of the Trier Insurance Company, 50% of the shares of the Ritter Bank, Berat Steel...... Of course, the vast majority of them are stocks that are held by agents of the 'Dawn of Elements'. ”
"Lion" Leon was dumbfounded, in the days of Byam, he had fully understood the power of "capital" in today's world, so he knew very well what Bernadette meant by what he said.
"This ...... You earned it all yourself? Leon asked subconsciously.
"Only part of it is...... The other part is the gift he left me through various means...... Even if I had already broken with him at the time......" Bernadette said in a calm lake-like tone as she glanced at the vine swing next to her.
"Lion" Leon immediately soured when he heard this: Why do I have nothing? Sure enough, I had to hack him to death.
"My request is simple, the kid down here is about to leave for Intis, and I hope your agent in Trier will help him as much as he can, invest in his film and television company, and block the coveting that may come." It took a long time for the lion to remember his request.
"Okay." Bernadette didn't say anything more and immediately agreed.
"Then it's okay, I'll go back first, that kid doesn't look like he's a demigod yet, but if I delay a little longer, he might be able to find out about your arrival."
Before the lion could finish speaking, he noticed that the blue-black pea vine suddenly shrank and disappeared into the night, and it itself fell to the ground lightly.
"Not the ontology? Is this some kind of bizarre 'mysterious reappearance'? It's a pity that the time is too short to learn ......" The lion shook his head regretfully, simulated the ability again, put the orange cat's "psychological coat" on his body, and walked into the villa unhurriedly.
……
Bridge District, Glenmere Street.
As Edith had just sent Sister Freya and Daisy home and was about to take the last subway ride back to Jowood, she jumped out of horror.
This is a premonition of danger! The experience at sea made Edith suddenly on guard, and she looked around quietly, and soon focused her eyes on a hooded man on the other side of the road.
Although he couldn't see the man's face, Inspiration told Edith that the other party was looking at him "greedily", as if he was going to eat him.
Immediately afterward, an indescribable sense of terror spread throughout his body, making it difficult for him to move.
But at this moment, the word hood seemed to curse something, and then turned away without hesitation.
It wasn't until the other party disappeared from view that Edith was able to move again, he reached out and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and ran towards the nearby Storm Chapel without hesitation.
In the process, his fingers seemed to touch something in his pocket, and he quickly took it out to take a look, only to find that it was a doll's finger.
When did this stuff get into my pocket? Edith's eyes widened as she half-footed into the church, and after a moment's thought, she pulled out a few bills from her purse1, put her "fingers" in them, and threw them into the church's offering box.
……
On the other side, the hooded man walked into a street park, then opened his mouth and let out a sigh that seemed to come from his chest: "I'm so hungry!" ”
He then looked at the street and said to himself:
"That man is a real 'provocateur' who has brought himself to my mouth, and what could be more provocative of an evil spirit?
"But you stopped me ......"
Before his words fell, a bloody mouth suddenly cracked on the man's left cheek, and he opened and closed:
"Medici, are you really crazy? I don't believe you didn't realize whose aura was coming from that person just now! ”
"Yes, with the strength of this 'gatekeeper', we are afraid that we will be unable to even run away from him." A mouth also appeared on the man's right cheek.
"Red Angel" Medici suddenly sighed:
"Sauron, Einhorn, were you two women in the past? Even when Tolzner was the King of Angels, he was not taken seriously by me, and he may not be much better than us now.
"You've thrown all the angelic personalities down the toilet!"
The bloody crack on the left side of the man's face immediately sneered:
"Medici, have your brains been sacrificed to the 'True Creator'? That was the power of the 'curse' authority!
"Even if the curse doesn't do us any real harm, this 'janitor' is dead!"
The man's mouth on the right side of his face also opened and closed: "That's right! Medici, the first thing we need to solve is the existing problem! What are we going to do if this 'janitor' is gone? ”
Medici was not annoyed, and said with a low smile:
"It's not impossible to solve it, as long as you let me recite the Lord's honorable name......"
Before he could finish his words, he was suppressed by the combined efforts of two other "conqueror" evil spirits.
They had just breathed a sigh of relief, but suddenly they looked back in the direction of the West End, for they felt a special feeling coming from the place of bondage. And a familiar atmosphere.
The colors around the man instantly became thicker, layered on top of each other, as if he wanted to enter the spirit realm, and began to shuttle.
But just as he was about to enter the last step, he failed.
"Medici, what do you want to do?" The crack on the left side of his face screamed.
"Don't forget, we're not completely free, and if something goes wrong there, we're not going to be happy!" The slit on the right cheek followed.
"I just want to see you angry and helpless!" Medici laughed.
……
At the same time, Abner used the "Evans's Hidden Barrier" to cover himself and Hugh outside the abandoned church on Williams Street, and threw the box with many rune seals inside.
