v2 Chapter 689: Overcast

After listening to Abner’s explanation, Emlyn subconsciously repeated what he had said in front of Sherlock: “I am a deep and noble blood clan, and I don’t rely on looks for a living.”

"As far as I know, some expensive and exquisite dolls are not cheap." Abner looked at each other carelessly and said leisurely.

"How do you know?" Emlyn's face suddenly stiffened, and he subconsciously looked at Harou next to him, thinking it was the detective she had told him.

But he immediately remembered that the detective was a friend of Aitris, and that Heidi's self-directed and self-acted "fraud" case was also cracked by him... I'm afraid he knew his hobby for a long time.

Perceiving the change in his face, Abner smiled softly: "Prior White, Karen and I are also friends, and I also know Lydia. I have heard of your reputation among the blood."

Emlyn opened his mouth and tried to explain a few words, but in the end he did not speak.

Then, he deliberately coughed twice, pretending to inadvertently change the subject:

"So, what exactly is the project you are talking about? How much do you plan to pay for my ‘show’?"

After a short period of thought, he felt that since he became the descendant valued by the ancestors, he would become the savior of the blood race in the future, and the necessary sacrifices are acceptable...

Abner smiled and shook his head and said: "This project is still in the preparation stage. After the preparation of specific matters, the company will send lawyers and brokers to negotiate specific work and salary with you.

"You can also take this time to think about it."

His remarks made the "film and television company" still in the state of a grass-roots team appear quite formal, and he also bluffed Emlyn for a while, and it took a long time to understand what Abner's words meant...

So, how much you can earn, is not sure yet? Emlyn suddenly had the illusion that he had fallen into the language trap of the other party, but he couldn't understand what the other party lied to him... After all, he didn't have any loss.

On the other hand, after Abner and Emlyn had initially finalized their intent to cooperate, they found that Bishop Utravsky had also finished taking care of the patients, so they stepped forward and exchanged a few words with them, and then they said something. Asked:

"Bishop, I want to know the whereabouts of a person."

Bishop Utravsky lowered his head, gave him a gentle smile, and said: "The mother **** has already explained that you can go to the address recorded on this paper to find the person you want to see."

With that, he took out a piece of letter paper from his arms and handed it to Abner.

Lilith didn't let me visit this time? Is the star world busy? Abner took a look at the letter paper while thinking strange thoughts in his mind:

"St. George's District, 36 River Street."

Dunn lives in the St. George area? 36 Riverside Street...I remember that the shooting club that Caspers first introduced to me was on that street...Although I met Hugh, I didn’t go there...

Thoughtful Abner folded the letter paper and put it in his pocket, and then drew a simple pen on his chest with the holy emblem of the Earth Church, and praised the phrase "kind mother" by the way.

After doing this, Abner bid farewell to the Bishop of Ban Giant, and then returned to Harou. After a few more conversations, he left the Harvest Church.

After he left, Daisy, who had been watching by the side, leaned forward and asked curiously: "Pastor Macht, who was the gentleman just now?"

"He is Abner Bryan, the'hero detective' that you often talk about." Hajol replied with a smile while looking back at the door.

"So he is Detective Bryan!" Daisy's eyes lit up, and then she said annoyedly, "I should have come over to say hello just now."

Although it was half a year later, the people of the Eastern District still remembered Abner’s destruction of the "Black Skull Party" and rescued many residents—even though it was just the merit of the "Desert" on his head.

"There will be a chance in the future... I just promised him to be his'guide' for a new project... You can come and help at that time." Harou reached out his normal hand and patted Daisy on the shoulder. .

This help is definitely paid. Harou knows that Daisy's family is difficult, so he wants to make up for the little girl's self-esteem as much as possible without damaging her self-esteem.

This kind of thought of taking care of other people's feelings was impossible for her six months ago, but now she has done it naturally...

Speaking of it, although Daisy and Freya’s mother gradually recovered their health under the conditioning of Emlyn’s potion, the previous symptoms plus the “life potion” that Aitris poured in to delay her symptoms to stimulate the potential. It also left a lot of hidden dangers...

According to Emlyn’s judgment, the lady Liv would have to lose at least 15 years of life.

Aitris actually blamed herself for such a result, so she didn't dare to come to church recently, but the three of Liv, Freya, and Daisy did not blame him, but were very grateful.

After all, without his potion, without him struggling to carry Liv out of the Eastern District, I am afraid that Liv would have died without even having a chance of losing his life.

...

West End, Intis Embassy.

The confidential secretary with a moustache walked into Mr. Owen’s office again and reported: “Mr. Special Envoy, I have arranged it and assigned tasks to the military attaches who have a good relationship with Mr. Surrey. They will not be in the embassy for two or three days."

"Very good... it is not wise to fight with an'astronomer' in his workshop. Even I can't guarantee that I can win it quickly. If there is too much movement, it will attract the power of the church or the official Ruen. If you intervene, it’s not good... It’s safer to wait for him to come to the embassy tomorrow~lightnovelpub.net~ Owen first nodded in satisfaction, then seemed to remember something, and told the secretary, "You will follow The people near Surrey's granddaughter withdrew back so as not to arouse his suspicion. "

"Tomorrow... What if Mr. Sarri receives news of the fall of Archbishop'La Mill' in this short period of time?"

"It won’t happen. The'old witch' can delay at least one day. Even the Steam Church of Intis will not receive news before tomorrow night, let alone Surrey in Backlund. "Mr. Owen confidently said.

"As for his granddaughter, she is just a low-ranking Extraordinary. When Sarri is taken, she won't be able to escape... It's not impossible to even trick her into the embassy to snare."

...

In the villa at 28 Kingster Street, Abner heard that Emma had sent him a letter as soon as he returned. He took the letter and read it in surprise, and his eyebrows frowned.

"The content of the letter seems to express the feelings of longing and admiration... But the relationship between Emma and I did not reach this point... That girl is not the character who writes this kind of thing... Well, even'Magic Mirror's "Dream" spread out that night, the heroine did not have her...

"Is this a ‘secret letter’? That lady is a ‘decryption scholar’ herself, so she feels that others can also decipher the secret content of her letter?

"Does this trust my reasoning ability or test my ability?"

Abner didn't want to play any puzzle games, he directly opened the "White Eyes" and made today's predictions:

"The secret hidden in this letter."

As the pure white pupils suddenly gleamed, he got enlightenment from the "River of Destiny":

"The cloud of catastrophe covers my mutual friend and me."
