Valeera left the bar with a large glass of Southwell beer, and on her way to the billiard room, she lowered her head and took a sip.
The bitter taste is stronger than I thought.
She frowned slightly and drank a few more sips before regaining the refreshing and refreshing feeling in her memory.
Pushing open the wooden door of the chess and card room, she bore the appearance and identity of the bounty hunter Lexa and shouted to the two people playing ball inside:
"Caspars."
Seeing that the person greeting him was an old acquaintance, Kaspars put down his cue, made a few gestures to his opponent, then limped to the door, closed the door, and asked:
"Are you here to see the 'old man'?"
Valeela shook her head in confusion.
"He looked for you last week, and he must have gotten into some trouble," Kaspars explained briefly, adding, "Someone is already looking for him now."
When Kaspars said this, Valeela completely understood...Yin En was looking for her just to find the missing detective Zerrell, and now it was either the Zmang Party or MI9 who were looking for him.
If nothing else goes wrong, "Secret Puppet Master" Rosago has probably obtained clues and information from Klein at this time, and will be able to find Yin En hiding near the Red Brick Alley in the East District in the middle of the night.
Although she knew the general development of the matter, Valeera still asked casually, "What is his condition now?"
"I heard that someone got the bounty today. I should have seen him." At this point, Kaspars changed his tone, "But this kid is very slippery. He is probably hiding. There should be no problem."
"I hope so." Valeela couldn't say much and could only echo.
According to the original description, although the process was a bit tortuous, Yin En did not have any problems in the end, and finally escaped from the center of the incident completely; on the contrary, it was Caspars himself who misjudged the dangers of the extraordinary world. Soon after, he was retaliated by members of the indulgent faction of the "Rose School".
By reminding him when the time comes, he should be able to avoid it... Valeela thought this way.
After a brief pause, Kaspars changed the topic and asked:
"What's going on with you this time?"
"It's nothing," Valeera shook her head, "It's just that I haven't been active for a long time. Come here and ask about the situation."
This was a common behavior among bounty hunters, and Kaspars had no doubts about it.
He thought about it and said in a relaxed tone:
“No one is looking for you now, at least not as far as I know.
“Except for the recent ‘Phantom Black Queen’ and the recent ‘Serial Killer’, there is nothing else worth talking about.
"Hey, coincidentally, both of these things are somewhat related to that aspect. Do you think they were done by one person?"
Hearing such groundless speculation, Valeela secretly felt speechless.
"I don't know, it doesn't feel like it."
She didn't know how to help herself. After replying casually, she asked the question she really cared about:
"Have you had any good commissions recently?"
"Looking for something to do?" Kaspars shook his head subconsciously, "I'm afraid there is no such big thing as you like."
He obviously regarded the workers' demonstration incident as a bounty mission that Valeela received from nowhere. In comparison, other things he did here were indeed trivial.
"Hey, wait a minute, there is actually something that might interest you."
Caspars, who was shaking his head, suddenly lit up and remembered a person:
"Someone wanted a strong bodyguard, but Maric refused. If you have any ideas, come here early tomorrow night."
This was the answer Valeera wanted.
She took a detour and came over to greet Kaspars in order to determine Klein's recent situation as soon as possible——
If there are no deviations, you can feel at ease earlier. If there are deviations, you can find ways to correct them sooner.
"In this case, I'll go see Maric first, and we'll talk later."
Valila looked like "I'm going to Maric to learn more about the situation before making a decision." After Kaspers agreed, she turned and walked towards Maric's exclusive chess and card room.
…
"Good evening."
After entering the door, Valeela raised her hand to erase the disguise of her "stealing appearance" ability, while saying hello to Maric who was sitting at the card table.
"Sit down." Maric, whose face was much paler than usual, nodded.
"I'm a little late," Valila smiled apologetically and sat down opposite Maric. "The situation in Backlund is not very good recently, and it's not very convenient to go out."
She was referring to the impact of serial killings.
As the number of victims increases steadily and regularly, public opinion intensifies, and the official extraordinary people will inevitably try their best to pursue it secretly.
Correspondingly, the activities of wild Beyonders will naturally shrink——
For example, this time she did not dare to rely on her invisibility and chose to hire a carriage instead.
"That's a good thing."
As Sharon's unique, smooth voice sounded, her figure appeared silently in the empty seat next to her.
Maric followed to help explain:
"What Sharon means is that in this situation, it is inconvenient for the members of the Indulgence Faction who are chasing us to move. We can just use this time to make more preparations."
"The time to hunt the 'Ghost' is coming soon." Sharon added from the side.
It seems that the development of the situation has not changed much, and I don’t have to always have the mentality of a nanny... Valeera nodded and asked proactively:
"What do you need me to do?"
When Valeela asked this, it was actually her most appropriate reaction, not the most true reaction.
She had to hide the extra information she knew.
"Not needed yet."
Maric shook his head, clasped his hands on the table, and said:
"What we need is your combat power. As long as you can help in the final critical battle, it is enough. You don't need to participate in the early preparations. We have more suitable manpower in this regard.
"When the situation becomes clearer, we will discuss it with you."
By the end of his words, he felt like he was gritting his teeth, obviously trying his best to resist the sequential curse that was gradually approaching its peak.
"We will successfully hunt that 'revengeful spirit'." Valeela said solemnly.
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and wiped it in front of her eyes, opening the "grey vision", and then established a "connection" between Maric and a living corpse to help him alleviate the impact of the curse.
Under the strong crimson light, the chess and card room became much quieter, leaving only the sound of Maric's heavy breathing suppressing pain.
After several minutes, he breathed a long sigh of relief and passed the most difficult moment.
After Maric waved his hand, Valeela terminated the "connection".
At the same time, she secretly set a goal in her heart——
In the battle with the Indulgence Faction soon, we must ensure that the "resentful soul" characteristic does not contain too much mental pollution.
