Chapter 139: Issuing Mandates
After Sean left the Hunters' Guild, the excitement in his heart did not calm down, and his mind was full of the golden 10,000 gold coins.
Oh, God of Light! I'm not dreaming, 10,000 gold coins, even after deducting 30% of the fees of Ms. Kelly's three friends and 10% of lawyer Martin's lawyer, Ms. Kelly and I can each get 3,000 gold coins! Call...... 3000 gold coins, damn it, Lawyer Martin is so capable...... The joy in Sean's heart could not be calmed down, and even looking at the somewhat gloomy sky, he was inexplicably relieved.
He didn't continue to work at the Red Botanical and Botanical Garden, first, because the evil spirit's matter was temporarily resolved, and second, he was now on the verge of promotion, and there was no point in going to the Botanical and Botanical Garden again.
Well...... In any case, the weekly salary of the Red Zoo and Botanical Garden is 3 gold coins, and when the matter is done, it will still be a gangster...... Sean made up his mind, and beckoned a carriage back home.
To his dismay, Tom still hadn't returned, and he thought about it and felt that he couldn't wait any longer, so he went to the next block alone.
Although it was not the first time he had visited, the chaotic and disturbing streets still made him feel complicated.
Now he is no longer an ordinary person at the beginning, and naturally has no fear of those fierce thieves, robbers, and gangsters, but in order to avoid trouble, he still skillfully reveals the pistol at his waist to warn those with bad intentions.
The little children who were begging along the side of the road also seemed to see that Sean was not easy to mess with, and they did not come to ask for money, which made Sean, who was in a complicated mood, even heavier.
He knew very well that these children were not really pitiful, and that the real pitiful children were either freezing to death in the freezing winter or starving to death in a stinking corner, and it was impossible for them to beg alone in such a favorable position.
In this way, Sean once again walked all the way through the rows of shabby, dirty, graffiti-painted houses, smelling the clearly audible smell of urine, rotting, sweat, etc., and found the building of the "Detective Exchange Society" in a remote corner.
Looking at the clean two-story building in front of him, Sean was full of emotion in his heart, shook his head, and after saluting the police in the distance, he walked into this detective exchange association with Brian's sword and staff.
It was still a familiar spacious hall, except for the front desk in front of it, the shelves on the side that posted commissions, and the busy bartenders next to it, the whole hall was basically a few gentlemen or ladies dressed as detectives, and they were still the same as before, either sitting in their seats sipping coffee or beer and reading newspapers, or standing in front of the shelves to examine various commissions.
Unlike last time, Sean's appearance this time has attracted the attention of some people, not only because of Sean's decent clothes and not cheap cane in his hand, but also because of Sean's current temperament.
Maybe it's strength that brings self-confidence, Sean's appearance at the moment is no different from those aristocratic teenagers, and even more calm that some aristocratic teenagers don't have.
However, none of the detectives in the hall were impatient personalities, and although they saw that Sean might be a gold master, they did not act in a hurry without careful observation.
Sean naturally saw the changes in the expressions of the people around him, but he didn't care, and after smiling slightly, he walked to the front desk and said to the waitress he saw last time: "Hello, I want to issue a commission." ”
The waitress obviously didn't recognize Sean as the young man who came last time, and smiled: "Sir, what level of commission do you want to issue?"
According to the rules of the association, a fee of 1 silver is charged for the gratuity of 100 or less coins, and a fee of 5 gold coins for the gratuity of more than 100 gold coins. ”
Nima, is the handling fee so expensive? Sean was slightly stunned, and said quietly: "My commission is very simple, that is, one of my black cats is lost, and I need someone to help me find it, even if it is just an exact clue, and the reward is 5 gold coins." ”
He now only has a total of 7 gold and 3 silver coins on his body, which is already the limit of what he can take.
Seeing that it was such a simple entrustment, the waitress smiled without hesitation and said, "Then Mr. Trouble, pay a total of 5 gold and 1 silver coins for the gratuity and handling fee." ”
Sean nodded slightly, counted out five gold coins and one silver coin, handed them over, and began to write the commission on a piece of parchment that the waitress had taken out.
After checking that there was no problem, the waitress stamped it and hung it on the shelf in the hall herself.
It didn't take long for some of the detectives to come over and check on them, while most of them left disappointed, except for a hot, short-haired woman in a tight black trench coat.
Sean saw this scene and his heart moved, so he took the initiative to step forward and said, "This lady, have you seen my black cat?" ”
Since there was no portrait on the commission, Sean was not sure if the other party would admit his mistake, and even, just in case, he secretly opened his spiritual eye to observe the lady, and found that the lady was just an ordinary person.
This lady looked about thirty years old, with fair skin, a pointed chin, and unusually sharp eyes, giving people a sense of vigor and resoluteness.
After hearing Sean's inquiry, the other party nodded slightly, and shook his head slightly: "I'm not sure what kind of black cat you're looking for, but I did see a black cat in one place." ”
Sean was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "What does that black cat look like?" ”
The lady touched her thin chin and thought for a moment, then suddenly looked at Sean with a smile and said, "You are very strange. ”
Sean was stunned for a moment, and said inexplicably: "What's strange?" ”
The short-haired lady smiled faintly: "Judging from your clothes and cane, you don't look like a poor person who is short of money, and you like this, since you are willing to come here to issue a commission for your black cat, then you won't only give such a small commission as an honorarium, you say it yourself, isn't it strange?" ”
Is 5 gold very small? Sean silently squirmed his lower lips and said calmly: "It's nothing strange, my black cat recognizes my family, and I'm just here to try it out of curiosity." ”
"Really?" The corners of the short-haired lady's mouth curled slightly, and she changed her words and said, "I don't know what kind of black cat you are looking for, but the black cat I met is very different, especially the eyes ......"
Speaking of this, she seemed to think of some terrible picture, was silent for a while, and said solemnly: "Those blood-red eyes, I just looked at them at the time, and it was as if I had fallen into hell. ”
Sean gasped, and a huge wave was set off in his heart, although he didn't know if the other party was talking about Brother Tom, but his intuition gave him a bad premonition, he thought about it, and pretended to be plain and said: "It's funny." ”
