Chapter 24
Chapter 23 blackmail
As the fluctuations occurred, Connor slowly opened his eyes, and there was endless joy in his eyes.
“Is this a junior apprentice? What a wonderful feeling!”
“It took seven days to change from an ordinary person to a junior apprentice. I don’t know if my talent is good or bad. It’s a pity that the current chip doesn’t absorb enough knowledge to help me optimize my basic meditation ideas. What a pity! ”
“Chip, I am now a junior apprentice, can I now try to deal with the green light spots in my body?” Connor asked the chip with some hope:
“Dip! The test is over, I’m sorry for the host. After becoming a junior apprentice, you still can’t get rid of the green light spots in your body!” The cold female voice of the chip quickly gave the answer in Connor’s mind.
When he got this answer, Connor’s face turned dark for an instant, and the joy of being a junior apprentice was immediately washed away.
“Do you really have to go to Reyes for help?”
This question rose in Connor’s mind. He remembered that when the sun badge he hung on his body blocked Vidal’s corrosive acid spell that day, Vidal once yelled “Magic Item!”, this name. Perhaps it was a magical item, the correct name in the wizarding world. As for Vidal’s greedy eyes when he saw the sun badge that day, Connor is still fresh in his memory.
Judging from the greedy eyes and the lack of a magical item in Vidal, Connor felt that the magical item might be considered a precious thing in the entire wizarding world.
That being able to give such precious demonized items to himself at will, it seems that he, Reyes tutor, is not a simple person!
“Ding! Ding!·····”
Just when Connor was thinking about his mentor Reyes, his doorbell rang without any warning.
Listening to his doorbell ringing, Connor was slightly surprised. These days, except for the delivery person, no one else has rang the doorbell of his apartment. Today, he wants to break through and become a junior apprentice, so he doesn’t want to be caught. Excuse me, I didn’t order takeout, so who would ring his doorbell now?
did not open the door directly, Connor opened the cat’s eye and observed his “guest!”
This “guest” is a little old man in a gray trench coat, with a peaked cap, and a smoking pipe in his mouth.
seemed to be aware that Connor had walked behind the door. The little old man took off his peaked cap and looked at the cat’s eye with a smile!
“Crack!”
Connor opened the door blankly, then turned back to the room and sat on the sofa.
Seeing that Connor was so “cold”, this little old man with a pipe in his mouth didn’t care, smiled and closed the door and walked into the house. He was not polite with Connor, and sat directly on the sofa opposite Connor. .
“Master Ferguson, worthy of being a nobleman, even the apartment he lives in is so luxurious, this Persis carpet, crystal lamp… must all cost a lot of money?” The little old man praised his wrinkled face with a smile. Road:
“Valverde, what are you doing here?” Connor took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:
Yes, sitting on the sofa opposite Connor, the little old man with a pipe in his mouth is the famous detective Valverde that Connor has brought to investigate Rebecca. When he saw Valverde from the cat’s eyes, Connor understood that he was in trouble!
Valverde calls himself “Master Ferguson”, Connor knows that this is not a casual address, this is Valverde telling himself again, he has checked his details! Since he had already checked it, and he was pretending not to know Valverde, he was insulting his IQ.
“Hey, Master Ferguson, Valverde is fifty-nine this year. At such an age, I can’t afford the job of a detective, but I can’t help it. If I don’t work, I will have no food. When I was a detective, I was afraid of injuring my family, so I didn’t even marry a wife, let alone have children. Now I don’t even have a person to support me. My life is a failure!” Take the pipe out of my mouth. , Valverde put on a pitiful look.
“hahahahaha…”
Looking at Valverde’s pitiful look, Connor couldn’t help laughing out loud, but when the laughter reached its highest point, it stopped abruptly. Connor suddenly threw himself in front of Valverde and stared. Valverde said coldly; “Don’t tell me these are useless, make a price, how much do you want!”
Although Connor’s movements are very fast, Valverde’s eyes are not panicked. A few days after Dahl’s information, the two of them disappeared, and they will never be found again!”
“I, Valverde, have always done my best to my employer . After discovering that they were missing, I was afraid that you would have an accident, Master Ferguson, so I rushed to find you, Ferguson. Master, the way you look now, really scared me. Could you please return to your position? Valverde is old. If you are frightened, your brain will not work well. If you lose some of your brain, it won’t work. Wherever things go to the police and the church, it’s not so good…”
Feeling the meaning of blackmail in Valverde’s words, Connor sighed secretly in his heart. He didn’t expect that the thing he was most worried about would happen after all! Although this was the case in his mind, Connor knew that he had to be very strong and could not let Valverde have the illusion that he could knead at will!
“Snapped!”
Connor did not retreat to his position as he had requested of Valverde. Instead, his right hand slammed on Valverde’s old face, which was close at hand.
“I said don’t tell me these useless things, how much do you want?”
Rao is how Valverde is so treacherous, he did not expect Connor to be so fierce, with the handle in his hand, he dare to humiliate himself so! With this slap, Valverde was completely stunned by Connor!
suppressed the color of hatred in his eyes, Valverde wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and ignored Connor’s acting, and said directly: “Ten thousand gold pounds, besides, I want a manor!”
“Ten thousand pounds? A manor?” Connor asked in disbelief. He looked at Valverde like a fool. I won’t talk about the huge sum of 10,000 gold pounds, but this manor is completely open to the lion. You must know that in the Kaman Empire, it can be called a manor, and the market price is at least 15,000 gold pounds!
