Chapter 16 Brainstorming, detailed planning
"Don't you want to get back the heirloom and kill the countess who killed your mother?"
Clark's words were like a cold wind from Siberia, freezing the entire room in an instant.
The two companions of Kuyla looked at him with a look of disbelief.
They couldn't believe that they could hear such cruel words from the mouth of Clark, a teenager who was only a teenager and still very cute, as if taking a person's life away was as simple and ordinary as breaking an egg.
Kouira's face showed a struggling expression, swaying back and forth between restraint and heartbeat.
"Kouira, it's illegal to kill someone, think about your dreams, I know you love clothes, you like design.
Remember? I see you look at the billboard of that clothing store every time we act, and it's not worth it to bury your future for that bad woman. ”
Jasper grabbed her shoulders and tried hard to persuade her, and even Horace, who was acting heartless on the side, muttered in a low voice: "In our business, we generally only seek money, not death." The consequences of these two being caught are very different. ”
"I can't do that!"
After hesitating for a long time, Kuyla finally covered her face and shook her head frantically, as if she wanted to expel some terrible thought from her mind.
"I promised my mother to be who she wanted me to be, to be less troublesome, to play by the rules, I promised."
Jasper and Horace secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.
Clarke, however, smiled.
"But even if you don't kill her, it shouldn't be difficult for you to steal a jeweled necklace from a Muggle with your skills as a wizard.
What's more, I remember your signature method, isn't it the use of light and shadow magic? This kind of thing should be even easier. ”
"Humph!" Kuyla looked at him and snorted contemptuously.
"It's not as simple as you think, this is France, not your closed and conservative England. Here, the existence of wizards is not a secret that no one knows, especially some ancient families have the means to target wizards.
The countess's side is no exception, do you think I lurked by her side as an assistant, for nothing? ”
Clark nodded knowingly. It seems that the situation in the wizarding world in France is not the same as in England.
It's no wonder that their wizarding streets are integrated with Muggle shopping streets, and it can be seen from this that the free and unrestrained French wizards did not fully take the "Secrecy Law" to heart.
However, Clark has no intention of continuing to delve into the problems in Coola's story for the time being, anyway, he is only accepting Nick Lemay's commission to help the witch solve the problem in exchange for Nick Lemay's help.
The other party just wants to steal a ruby necklace, which is naturally better.
"Then tell me what you are going to do, Miss Cooira, I think you had expected it when you turned to Mr. Nick Lemay for help. Is his body no longer enough to support him to come and help?
So I'm here to help you solve some of your problems. ”
Clark's words were confident, as if in front of him, all problems would cease to exist.
For the first time, Kuyla took a serious look at the little boy in front of him, the close-fitting clothes and accessories on the other party's body, his gestures and temperament all showed that this little boy's background was not ordinary, at least, their family must be very rich.
Without any words, Kuyla stood up decisively, and the weakness and sadness just now seemed to be abandoned by her in an instant, perhaps this is the reason why she is called "witch".
"As far as I know, the most important thing on the countess's side right now is to organize her black and white ball, and this is the perfect opportunity for us to do it."
"Woohoo, this is going to be our biggest operation ever." Chubby Horace said exaggeratedly.
Kuyla drew her wand and pulled the wall covered with newspaper clippings, drawings, and a sketch of a jeweled necklace.
Countless colors of light were ripped off by her wand, intertwined and combined in the air, and finally converged into a vivid image of the castle, like the 3D projection that Clark saw in Iron Man in his previous life.
"First of all, we need to know about their security measures, which I have already inquired about when I was working as an assistant to the countess."
Kouira succinctly reported all the information she knew, and the 3D projection of the magic castle was sometimes magnified and layered with her words.
"Although the Countess's castle was built in the last century, the surveillance equipment inside is up-to-date, with modern cameras everywhere and guards on duty in important places."
A few red dots and humanoids appear in the castle projection, which is supposed to be where the guards and cameras are armed.
"I've looked at their schedules, and these guards have a three-shift rotation system, and the changing times are 6 a.m., 2 p.m., and 10 p.m. every day, so that we can make sure that there are enough people at each time slot with minimal expenses."
"Stingy capitalists!" Horace muttered quietly.
"The good news is that the Earl's Castle's monitoring room is on the ground floor, and I think there must be some kind of sewer that leads to their data exchange center under the monitoring room." Then, all we have to do is hack into the security system and bypass the cameras. Jasper, this task is up to you. ”
"No problem!" Jasper nodded.
"For the rest, we need one more person to open the safe and steal the necklace at the biggest party of the season, Horace?"
Horace struggled to straighten his chubby belly, "Guaranteed to get the job done!" ”
"On the day of the party, the whole Parisian fashion circle will be invited, as well as journalists, the rich elite, so many people, and the security system in the castle will be upgraded to the limit. Just in case, after I get the keys to the door and safe and hand them over to Horace, I'll need someone to help him distract the guards. ”
The three of them turned their heads to look at Clark and Hermione, who had been standing aside, silent.
Clark smiled and walked over to the suspended castle apparition, "So, how should we distract them?" ”
"I've found that she likes to kick out women who feel like they're offending her party. For example, the old and ugly women, the women who dress in gold and vulgarity, the women with miserable and sullen faces, ah, by the way, and the women with poodles. ”
"My party, I don't allow these people to spoil my taste!" Kuyla imitated the countess's appearance with disdain, and shook her head and sneered: "Fashion has never had any formula, and her strength has long since shrunk with age, just like the two organs on her chest." ”
That vivid appearance, caustic sarcasm, made Horace and the others laugh, and even Hermione was attracted by her unique strong woman charm.
