Chapter 47: Simple Tasks

Grandin picks through the stacks of books on Al's desk, looking for a novel that interests him. When he heard the captain's answer, his brow furrowed, and then he relaxed again.

"It wasn't a big deal, I got a part-time job. So the extra 1 gold pound will not make my life better, and the less 1 gold pound will not make my life worse. He had a rich smile on his face.

Al paused as he straightened out his papers, "Oh? What kind of work is it, is it convenient to talk about it? Your job won't be affected, right? ”

"I work as a tutor, and I teach finance to an aristocratic girl."

Grandin has found the book he wants to read, a biography called "Famous People".

"Alas, it's a pity that I've taken an extraordinary path, otherwise I could have tried to have my name in this book."

He stroked the hard book cover, thinking with some regret.

As for the excuse of being a finance teacher, he and the Earl had agreed a long time ago. Since Earl Hall did not want his daughter to receive more attention from the church, he had to be given a reason to be in and out of the Earl's villa frequently.

Al's hand, subconsciously wanting to pull out the handcuffs under his trench coat.

"You...... Do you teach finance? ”

He hasn't forgotten what Grandin did a while ago! This team member almost went to jail.

"Are you doubting my level of business?"

Grandin simply pulled out a folding chair and sat down across from Al, ready to have a good chat with him.

"No, I don't doubt your level of business, I just suggest you don't take it too seriously. Now the National Police Agency officers work an average of 10 hours a day, so don't trouble them. ”

Al pulled out the form and began to report the loss of materials from the previous week, and Grandin saw that there was also a request for repairs to public goods on the table.

He had the round-bellied pen soak up the ink from the convex belly inkwell and began to expertly fill out the form.

"Tutoring is also a decent job, and I heard that because of the social season, the income of tutors in dance and history has increased a lot."

This is the information he got while chatting with the little girl at the front desk.

"The income is really good, 25 gold pounds a week."

Grandin chimed in nonchalantly.

It seems that Earl Hall has fully considered the market situation.

"Click."

The pen in Al's hand pierced the paper, and the tip of the pen dug into the table, a cloud of ink smearing across the paper.

He looked puzzled, as if he hadn't heard clearly, and after a while asked:

"You governess...... Is it serious? ”

"Are you doubting my character?"

Grandin retorted loudly.

"Captain, it's time to live. Our informant has sent information that someone has purchased a hundred worms at a secret rally! Borgia came quickly from the door, a document in hand.

This is what he just got from the civilian staff.

"Bump!"

Lorota, who had not spoken, slammed into her chair and blew past Grandin like a gust of wind. Her long hair, swaying as she walked, hit Grandin's face in pain.

Arota's face was full of irritation, and he snatched the mission briefing from Borgia before the captain Al. After she finished reading it, her expression was even more gloomy like Beckland's weather.

"Level 1 controlled substance, this thing is often associated with the madmen of the Aurora Society. Hopefully they'll be a little more durable than the cabinet. ”

With that, Lorota went into the cloakroom next door to change clothes.

With a little recollection, Grandin remembered the extraordinary material of 'Hundred Worms'. It does seem to be on the list of contraband that the church distributes to every night watchman.

Al began to read the briefing on the mission that Lorota had left behind, but Grandin had another question.

"Cabinets? What a cabinet. ”

He asked, confused.

"You'll see it right away...... Borgia, you stay in the office and stand by. This mission was completed by me with Grandin and Lorota. ”

Al quickly chose the right person for the operation.

Borgia's abilities coincided with his. And the difficulty of this mission is to find someone, and Grandin's divination skills will come in handy. As for why you chose Lorota...... In her state, no one dares to disobey her.

After Al finished speaking, he looked at Grandin and asked for his opinion.

"I don't have a problem, I can just take the 1 gold pound salary owed to me by the Church and earn it back in the form of a field allowance."

Grandin didn't hesitate and agreed directly. He hadn't really fought a single battle since becoming a 'machine', and now he was curious about how much strength he had gained since he was promoted.

Al doesn't need to change his clothes, he wears clothes suitable for missions all year round, so he has already started to check his weapons and equipment.

Grandin no, his tuxedo was worth about 9 gold pounds, and he didn't want to roll on the floor in such clothes.

The multiple wrinkles on her clothes would have distressed Cosette for a long time.

So when Lorota came out of it, he pulled his suitcase from under his desk and went into the cloakroom.

The scene in the room made him understand what Captain El was saying.

There are half rows of cabinets here as if they had been struck by a battering ram, and they are skewed and deformed to be usable.

"Lady Lorota is horrible."

Grandin muttered.

Fortunately, his cabinet was not violently treated by the lady, and his long trench coat was still safely hung inside. And in his suitcase, there were firearms that he had purchased from regular channels.

He took off his suit, hung up his belt, inserted his revolver and shotgun, and checked the position of the various charms in his belt, and the three-edged thorn was well inserted in his boots. Finally, he put on the thin black trench coat.

He looked at the flesh badge in his hand that was stored in a lead box, and he couldn't make up his mind.

The Flesh Badge had great side effects, but considering the unknown intensity of the battle, he kept it in the vest pocket on his chest.

When he came out of the cloakroom, he already had a little more refined temperament.

"That's good. The first time I saw you, I assumed that you would make a good night watchman. ”

Al glanced at Grandin's outfit and nodded in admiration, he was stuffing various spellcasting materials into his pocket.

Lorota had already taken a step ahead and went downstairs to arrange the carriage. Grandin ordered another packet of Holy Eve powder from the captain. After the two were fully prepared, they also went downstairs.

The night watchman has his own carriage, which is unremarkable in appearance but very comfortable to ride.

The carriage began to move towards the East End.

Lorota crossed her arms over her chest and looked out the window.

Al began to explain the mission.

"The suspect was a lady who lost her after she entered the East End. The Hundred Worms is the main material of Sequence 9 'Secret Prayer Man', and it can be inferred that she is most likely still an ordinary person now. ”

Al pinched his brow with his hand, "Although the sequence involved is not high, it cannot be taken lightly, those who want to be promoted through this sequence are crazy." We need to find her as soon as possible, control her, or kill her. ”
