Chapter 120 119

At noon that day, while Lloyd was eating in the public cafeteria, Quartermaster Andrew sat down next to him with a plate and handed him a high-end business card with gilded edges.

It reads 'Goddock the Critic' and a line of address underneath.

"I don't know this guy, but I was introduced by another friend, who is said to be a popular and well-known commentator on current affairs, known for his insightful angles and innovative views, and often publishes articles in various newspapers and periodicals...... I don't know if I can help you? ”

Andrew introduced.

"It should work, thank you."

"You're welcome, just patronize my small business more in the future."

The two chatted and finished eating, and Lloyd went to say hello to Wei Ya, saying that he had gone out to look for materials.

But Wei Ya stopped him and said very sincerely and seriously:

"Lloyd, if you're really short of money...... You can tell me. ”

It seems that she thought that Lloyd had gone out to take on private work to make money......

This kind of thing is actually not uncommon in the Order, although there are relevant regulations, but they are not strictly enforced, and even some presiding judges and chief knights will serve as some 'honorary advisors' and 'visiting professors' outside.

Wei Ya's concern made Lloyd's heart warm again, and he hurriedly replied with a smile:

"Don't worry, there is really no shortage of money, I really need help in the future, I will definitely find you as soon as possible, after all, you are my most trusted friend."

After that, he called the little milk cat and turned to leave.

After he walked away, Wei Ya kept staring blankly at the rough and simple little ornament on the table, and from time to time stretched out her jade onion fingers and gently flicked it, making the stick figure bear on the spring sway.

A sweet smile appeared on her face, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

……………………

Lloyd took the 'subway' and came to the address on the gilded business card.

【Ding~Madness +50】

It seems that human beings can adapt to loneliness, high pressure, and the end of the world, but they just can't adapt to this 'advanced subway'......

Coming out of a chapel, Lloyd walked another street to the bottom of an upscale apartment building.

This place is close to the most central area of the entire Bright City, and you can already see a huge white tower standing in the sky not far away.

It is the Sanctuary of Veto, the headquarters of the Order, the abode of the Holy One.

Therefore, the area around here can be said to be every inch of land, and those who can live in this area are basically upper-class people with heads and faces.

Lloyd found the caretaker of the apartment, showed the gilded business card, and was taken to a room on the fifth floor, where he knocked on it.

The door opened, and inside was an old man who looked very learned, a bit like a university professor.

He looked at Lloyd's uniform, received him warmly, served black tea and dried fruits, and then patiently listened to Lloyd's appeal.

To put it simply, Lloyd wanted the editor of the entertainment edition to make the editor who was scribbling comments understand that newspapers are not a place outside the law, and that he had to understand what it means to be free from gunpowder smoke and bloody violence.

He didn't intend to threaten the lives of others, since it was a grievance in the newspaper, he would settle it in the newspaper.

However, to Lloyd's surprise, the critic actually knew this, and even directly took out a price list and asked Lloyd to choose the 'package'.

The above names are very detailed, from the oral criticism in the newspapers; to writing anonymous letters for personal attacks; and then invite other critics to join in the encirclement; As well as offline team building, protests, painting, and even hiring street children to hug their thighs and shout for their fathers......

It can be said that only Lloyd didn't expect it, and there is nothing that is not above, it depends on how much Lloyd is willing to pay......

It seems that 'cyber violence' is really not unique to the Internet age......

Lloyd thought about it, chose the cheapest package of 50,000 universal coins, and hired about two or three well-known critics to spray the editor in the newspaper.

He thought that was enough, and the latter ones were a bit too much......

The old man did not refuse, so he signed a simple contract with Lloyd, received a deposit, and then promised to see the corresponding comments in the newspaper within a week, and then pay the final payment.

This matter is settled.

Lloyd stepped out of the fancy apartment and turned his head again to look at the 'Sanctuary of Veto' in the distance.

Although he only looked at it from a distance, that place somehow gave him an indescribable sense of familiarity, and he would inexplicably recall the spiral-shaped twisted towers in his [Mind Realm].

But the two have no similarities in terms of painting style, color, structure, and shape, except that they are both very tall.

Lloyd wasn't sure if it was his own unwarranted association or something else.

But it's certain that this isn't the kind of weird intuition that comes with the Book of Truth, and it's very different from the feeling when dealing with monsters this morning.

Maybe it's a gratuitous association, right? It's like seeing a beautiful and cute girl and thinking it's your wife?

Lloyd complained to himself in his heart, shook his head, and got up to get down to business.

He plans to use this little leisure in the afternoon to explore the mysterious 'theater of dreams' again.

Focusing on investigation and intelligence gathering, if there are any security projects that will not kill anyone, you can also try it, earn points, and prepare for the detachment materials later.

So he took the 'subway' and the tram, and after a long journey, he came to the door of the deserted antique shop.

Inside, it was still the guy who was lying on his stomach and was lazy, and he didn't even bother to raise his head when he saw someone coming in.

Lloyd was a little curious and [probed] him again.

Good guys, it's still '?? ’……

This shows that all four of his attributes exceed 60 points, and I am afraid that they will not be worse than himself.

Lloyd glanced back at the door of the shop.

In fact, this street is quite lively, the flow of people is quite good, and several other grocery stores and clothing stores in the vicinity are also quite popular.

But this antique shop was the only one, and no one approached at all, not even to look inside.

Lloyd was feeling a little strange, when he suddenly heard the sound of an urn behind him:

"They can't see the ...... here Do you want to go up or not? ”

It's the lazy guy who is talking 'in a dream'.

It seems that you have to have that golden card to find this place, right?

Lloyd knew a little more, so he nodded at the guy, and went to the second floor.

"Just wait for me here, don't move around."

Lloyd left the kitten outside the door and walked in on his own.

Then the vision changed, and I came to the delicate and elegant little garden.
