For a few minutes around midnight, the only sound in the card room was Maric's heavy, painful breathing.
When Maric waved his hand, Valeela interrupted the "connection" and couldn't help but suggest:
"Why don't we go hunt a 'revengeful spirit'?"
"Not now." Sharon glanced at Maric and shook her head slightly.
Maric then explained:
"We only have one chance to take action. Until the right time comes, all we can do is be patient."
Valeera thought for a while, and based on the content of the original work, she made a rough guess about the "opportunity to take action" that Maric mentioned. It should be referring to the time when Klein helped, or a situation similar to that time. .
She couldn't help here.
Judging from the original plot, Sharon and Maric did a good job in deliberately leaving clues to mislead the demigods responsible for the hunt.
So Valeela turned to the topic of reward.
Speaking of which, the fact that she asked Sharon to be a substitute was actually similar to the original movie in which Klein asked Sharon to be a bodyguard. By analogy, she also needed to pay a reward of 3,000 pounds.
Although it was heartbreaking, Valeera did indeed propose it.
But Sharon refused.
The reason is simple, "We are companions."
Maric also gave a more specific explanation.
"The critical ideas you summarized are far more valuable than gold pounds."
…
In the middle of the night, after leaving the "Brave Bar", Valeela first went to find Admiral Sol.
Harold's arrival in advance caused her to make some slight adjustments to Admissor's arrangements.
After making arrangements, Valeera rushed all the way back to the West District.
Instead of returning directly to her residence on Williams Street, she relied on divination to find a hotel room and wake up Harold from his sleep.
Valeela spent a lot of time, including language guidance and personal demonstrations, and finally managed to get this guy to the point where he could play Kiri Veitch.
With a little intentional protection from Qi Li, Kiri Veitch is an adventurer on the sea and returns to Backlund every one or two years.
All Valeela knew about Qili was some descriptions and a photo in Qili's notes. In addition, she only relayed part of the content to Harold, so the effect of her performance was obviously not very good.
Fortunately, there are no acquaintances in Ji Li, so there is no need to worry about being exposed in details.
Valeera didn't have high requirements for Harold, as long as he could pass the test at Silveras Field.
Valeela left behind the "Lost Mask" and made it clear that he would appear as Kiri tomorrow and confirmed that he had remembered all the precautions clearly before leaving with peace of mind.
…
In the morning, the personal maid Liya helped her master get up on time as always, without realizing at all that the person she was serving was not the same person these days.
Near noon, Harold appeared according to Valeera's arrangement.
Except for lacking some of the gloomy temperament, he looked similar to Valeela's idea of Kiri.
Harold hired two carriages. He took his "valet" Admissor in the front four-wheel carriage, and the rear one pulled several suitcases.
The suitcase contains Qili’s belongings.
Valeela had carefully warned her before that this was the part she was most concerned about.
She needs Harold to bring these things to her completely in the name of his brother Kiri, and integrity is particularly important.
The carriage stopped outside the courtyard gate. After Admissor rang the doorbell, the first person to recognize "Kili" was the "doorman" policeman sent by Silveras Field.
After receiving the notification from the servant, Valeera, who was well prepared, quickly came to the door to welcome her "brother" home.
"Sister, I brought your things back too."
Harold smiled and said hello, acting pretty well.
"Thanks."
Valeera smiled and gave her "brother" a light hug.
After entering the door, Harold relied on Valeela's guidance through "spiritual connection" and on-the-spot reaction, and finally behaved quite naturally.
As for the boxes of items he brought over, Liya and her maid were naturally responsible for handling them.
After having lunch in the spacious restaurant, Harold finally felt a lot more relaxed.
In the afternoon, Valeera basically followed Harold for "training".
The reasons on the surface are impeccable. It is natural for brothers and sisters who have not seen each other for a long time to talk more.
As for going to Silveras Field to confirm Valeera's identity, despite the policeman's active suggestion, Harold refused on the grounds that he was tired from the journey.
"You shouldn't doubt my sister's identity. Since you have suspected it for so long, it won't be more than a day or two."
This is what he said back to the policeman.
But in fact, Harold is really a day or two away.
If he doesn't adapt for a period of time in advance, he really doesn't have the confidence to perform naturally at Silveras Stadium.
…
at night.
Harold and Admiral slept in a second bedroom on the third floor of the house and a small adjoining bedroom.
In the master bedroom, Valeela looked at the items and clothes that had been arranged in categories, and her heart ached again.
After ten o'clock, she went out quietly again.
Valila went to Russell Street to make a deal with Associate Professor Barak as agreed.
This time, the lighted room on the third floor of the house became the master bedroom.
Valeera, who temporarily retrieved the "Lost Mask" and restored Lexa's image, entered from the balcony and met the associate professor and his wife who were waiting for them.
Obviously, the dagger in Balak's hand is a very powerful magical item, which can give him the confidence to compete with the extraordinary people in the middle sequence.
His wife was holding a revolver, and Valeela was sure that even if the pistol was an ordinary weapon, the bullets must have extraordinary effects.
"Stop, just stand there and don't come any closer!"
Barak's voice was cold, completely different from his tone last time.
Valeera was moved when she heard this, and suspected that this change in temperament might be related to the negative effects of the dagger.
"There is absolutely no need for you to be so nervous," Valeera shrugged and spread her hands with a smile, "If I want to deal with you, you will never be able to resist."
She took out a drawing that had been folded several times and a small piece of paper from her pocket, and threw it to Barak on the other side.
"This is what you want."
Barak took them in his hands and couldn't wait to unfold the drawings. After just a few glances, a cold smile appeared on his face.
During this time, his wife raised the muzzle of the gun and did not let down her guard at all.
After a while, Barak put down the drawing, unfolded the note, took out a small magnifying glass from the breast pocket of his shirt, and hung it on his silver-rimmed glasses.
"It's authenticated!"
After just a few glances, he gave the result.
This is truly rich, and he is worthy of being an extraordinary person connected with the "craftsman"... Valeela was a little moved when she saw these magical items.
After Barak put away the magnifying glass and picked up the dagger again, his wife threw the two trading items to Valeela.
Valeela quickly confirmed that it was correct, and the deal was concluded.
