Chapter 87: Advance Trading Planning
After thinking about it, Valilla was in the living room and wrote a reply to Crane.
She believed that Crane must have had an interesting look on his face when he saw the letter.
Then, she flipped through the newspaper, and in the life skills column of the "Daily Observer", she found the news that "Mr. A" had called a meeting, and the time was the day after tomorrow, that is, on the 7th.
In fact, this was the third meeting that "Mr. A" had convened since her return to Beckland.
The first two times, Valera did not participate.
Originally, she didn't plan to participate this time, but after going to the "Banquet Building" to do an experiment, she changed her attention.
Through that experiment, Valilla came to the conclusion that in order to play the role of the "Witch of Pleasure" in the way she wanted, she needed to obtain the magical items corresponding to the "Witch of Pain" in advance.
Of course, because she can also craft simple magical items from whalebone, her extraordinary properties are barely possible.
So, can she get her hands on this rare, even rare, item now?
Answer: Yes!
Through the original book, Valilla happens to know that there is a person who has the extraordinary properties of the "Pain" witch, and even includes the recipe for the "Pain" potion.
Moreover, this person is still in Beckland.
He is - "Mr. A", the strongest in Sequence 5, the almost full "shepherd".
Valera decided early on to use "Mr. A" as the first channel to obtain the extraordinary properties and potion recipes of the "Witch of Pain".
She thought about the timing of this decision, even before she was promoted to "witch"!
The only difference is that she expected to trade much later than she did now.
However, this did not affect anything, and Valeera's original plan for the transaction was to be as late as possible, preferably shortly before the "Great Smog Event".
This is because she intends to trade with "Mr. A" with the potion recipe of Sequence 4 "The Darkless", and of course, the given formula must be a mutilated formula.
With sufficient force, the deal could almost be said to be a foregone conclusion.
You know, in the original book, "Mr. A" took over the offer to assassinate Békron Jean Madan, the ambassador of Intis, which was several Sequence 4 mutilated formulas that he could promote, or 10,000 gold pounds.
And the ingredients and recipes that Valilla wants add up to about 10,000 pounds, and she can even ask for some more.
There will be no problem with trading, the question is how to make sure that "Mr. A" accepts the transaction honestly.
You know, "Mr. A" is not a good man and a woman, to put it mildly, he is a madman with a brain circuit that is different from ordinary people!
Valilla thought left and right, and felt that it was impossible to be 100% insured, and she could try to bring Miss Sharon to take care of it, and reduce some of the risks.
It seems that I am going to go to the Bridge District tonight and discuss it carefully with Miss Sharon.
……
It's eleven o'clock at night.
Valera arrives at the Bridge District and meets Marić and Sharon at the Brave Bar.
"Why are you here?"
Seeing Valeera who appeared unexpectedly, Marić asked simply and directly, with a solemn expression, "Something happened?" ”
Sharon also showed her figure, with a pair of blue eyes, looking at her quietly, waiting for an answer.
"Not really," Valera said with a smile to soften the tension between the two of them, "but I'm here for help." ”
Under the gaze of the two, she continued:
"I got word at a secret gathering that 'Mr. A' has the formula and extraordinary properties of the 'Agony' witch, and I want to make a deal with him."
"'Mr. A'?"
Marić quickly remembered that he had attended several meetings convened by "Mr. A" when he was helping Valilla collect the main ingredients for the "witch" potion.
"He's a strong man indeed," Marić recalled, adding, "most likely Sequence 5." ”
At this time, Sharon found a seat and sat down, holding her chin in her hand, and quietly watched the conversation between the two.
"He is the head of the 'Aurora Society' in Beckland, the 'shepherd' of Sequence 5, and it is said that his strength is far superior to his peers."
Speaking of this, Valilla looked at Sharon, "So, when I go to trade the night after tomorrow, I hope to get your answer to prevent accidents." ”
"The reward is £500 in cash."
"Yes."
Sharon only paused slightly, then nodded in agreement.
Valera couldn't help but sigh in her heart, among all the sequences that can be divined, I'm afraid that "resentful spirit" is the simplest, and it only needs one thought.
Unlike her, in addition to preparing a mirror, she also has to recite "spells".
Before coming here, she also did divination.
As a result, if she went to trade alone, the danger level would be orange and the threat level would be high; And if it's with Sharon, the danger level is reduced to green, and the safety level is more than a little bit higher.
After Sharon agreed to help, Valera was much more relieved.
Then she started talking about something else.
"I haven't told you yet, I'm going to be who I am."
"I have changed my name," Valera said briefly, "and by some serendipity, I have been given a real identity, the daughter of the former Lord Devich, now called Valilla Vicich. ”
"Of course, the Vicky family has completely decayed, the title has been revoked, and the property is only a house."
With that, Valera noticed a hint of inquiry in Marić's and Sharon's eyes.
After thinking about it, she still explained:
"The last heir of the Vicky family is my previous superior witch."
"I said before that she is dead and my relationship with her ...... It's complicated, so I won't say much about it. ”
Both Marić and Sharon nodded, not asking.
In fact, if Valeera doesn't explain, they won't ask questions.
As long as Valilla can always uphold the concept of moderation, I believe she will not do too much.
"The house at 67 Williams Street in the West End is where I live now," Valeera looked at Sharon, "and we'll meet there before 9 p.m. the day after tomorrow." ”
"Okay." Sharon nodded.
Speaking of which, the plan for the two to trade with "Mr. A" together is completely confirmed.
"One more thing," Valilla said again, "the 'criminal' I mentioned last time, he should not be long before he comes to Beckland." ”
】
"When the time comes, I'll take him to my place first."
"I need him to play my brother who I am now, Kiri Vic, to dispel any doubts about my identity on the field side."
"Do you want to investigate secretly for a while, or do you plan to contact him directly?"
After listening to Valeera's question, Marić quickly turned his head to look at Sharon.
Obviously, the main decision-maker between the two is Miss Sharon.
"I'll observe," Sharon said in a calm tone, "and then I'll give it to Marić." ”
To be on the safe side, she used a similar approach to Valeera.
