"Look, it's this watch."

Mrs. Seymour took out a black box, and inside was a "Miffett" gold watch.

Not long ago, the "Monroe" that Mrs. Hughes gave to herself was priced at 2,000 rupees, while the market price of Mrs. Seymore's piece was ten times that, which was 20,000 rupees.

The last time Piaget next door gave him a consultation fee of 20,000 rupees, this time Mrs. Seymour also gave her a watch worth 20,000 rupees.

All I can say is that the people living on this street are really rich.

The income of ordinary people who have worked hard for a year is not considered "net", but in the eyes of the truly wealthy class, it is just a small expense.

"It's a very beautiful and exquisite watch," Karen said.

"As long as you like it." Mrs. Seymour smiled.

"No, ma'am, it's too valuable, I can't accept it."

Karen wasn't trying to be coy, he really didn't want it.

In his previous life, he was an ordinary boy who gradually achieved material wealth through his own hard work. In this life, he has no worries about food and drink in the Immelais family, so he can still maintain a stable outlook on money.

of.

When bargaining with taxi drivers, it’s not that you don’t want to spend the fare, but that you don’t like the feeling of being slaughtered like a fat sheep.

I definitely like money, but I can’t really say that I crave it to the extreme.

If the Immelais family was an ordinary family, with so many members living in a low-rent house, then he would probably just accept the watch with a smile.

To put it bluntly, it is still not poor enough.

Mrs. Seymour thought Karen was being shy at first, so she tried to persuade her several times, but later she realized that Karen really didn’t want her;

"Well, I heard that psychiatrists can also provide treatment courses, right?"

"Now I am only responsible for providing services to the guests at home. Of course, if you need it, madam, I can provide services for you."

"Then this watch can be regarded as the consulting fee I pay you in advance for the next year, okay?

You come to my house for a home visit once a month. Or, when your home is not busy, I can come to your door and ask you to provide psychological counseling for me."

"Even so, this is too much."

"I think it was worth the money. Do you know how much I spent on my husband's funeral?"

Karen opened her mouth,

He knew it was a package B that would excite Aunt Mary,

But he couldn't tell the price directly.

Because the prices on the menu at home are very high-quality, and corresponding discounts are made based on the customer's response.

Karen knew the base price, that is, the specific cost, but he did not know the price that the family finally set for Mrs. Seymour.

If he said it too low, wouldn't it make Mrs. Seymour directly realize that she was "ripped off"?

In business, profits fluctuate, you agree with me, Karen can understand, and no matter what happens, there is no need for him to beat his own wall, right?

"200,000 rupees."

Mrs. Seymour held up two fingers.

call……

Karen breathed a sigh of relief. The uncles and aunts were not killed too hard and were still within a reasonable range.

This price is enough for Mr. Moissan and Jeff to go back and forth and burn it twenty times.

"So, you see, I am even willing to spend 200,000 rupees to hold a funeral for that damn ghost. What does it mean to give you a watch?"

Although Mrs. Seymour has calmed down, her hatred for Mr. Seymour is still there.

"I'm not afraid of your jokes, I'm just afraid that I will be very lonely next."

There was no look of love or lust in Mrs. Seymour's eyes when she said this, and the words themselves contained no hint.

She was used to being a good wife, but before her husband died, he gave her a heavy blow to her world view.

"I understand, madam, I am willing to provide you with psychological services. If you need it, you can call me directly." Karen said.

"That's great. Come on, let me help you put this watch on."

The watch is worn,

Mrs. Seymour took a few steps back, looked carefully, and said:

"What a handsome young man."

…

After walking out of the door of Seymour's house and waving goodbye to Mrs. Seymour who said goodbye warmly, Karen walked towards the end of the street, where it was convenient to take a taxi. At the same time, he took off the watch on his wrist and put it away.

The golden retriever is bouncing around happily, but no one living in the Immelais family is willing to take it out for long walks.

Pu'er was placed on Karen's shoulder. This cat would not see wild cats running around excitedly on the road, so there was no need to worry about it getting lost.

Standing at the intersection, Karen waved down a taxi.

"13 Minkstrasse."

"Okay, sir."

Sitting in the car, Karen kept her eyes closed.

The first thing that came to his mind was the situation in Piaget's family.

Piaget started killing people for fun after schizophrenia?

No matter how much I think about it, it doesn't seem like it.

Although the voice on the phone can be changed, for example, a male voice can be changed into a female voice, or a female voice can be changed into a male voice, this does not require a voice changer, because the phone tone of this era itself is very "metallic".

But Piaget does not fit his psychological profile of the perverted murderer. He may be a bit stupid in terms of interpersonal relationships, but a person who can take the initiative to create a "split personality" for himself is definitely "stupid"

is irrelevant.

So,

In other words, were the paintings I saw in her wife's studio a coincidence?

It's not like it's really a coincidence.

Karen had a headache and couldn't help but reach out and gently rub her forehead;

That feeling of nausea and dizziness has never completely dissipated since I saw the third painting of the Judgment of the Cult of Kosmos.

"Are you motion sick?" The driver observed Karen through the rearview mirror, "I can drive slower."

"No, no, please hurry up."

"OK."

The taxi stopped on the street, Karen paid the fare and got out of the car.

He suddenly felt that he could get a driver's license and buy a car.

It’s not difficult to get a driver’s license, and buying a second-hand car is not too expensive. The most important thing is that taking a taxi in Luojia City is not only inconvenient, but the cost is quite high.

Karen walked into the living room and saw Aunt Mary sitting on the sofa with Mrs. Hughes. Mrs. Hughes's eyes were red and she was wiping the corners of her eyes with a tissue from time to time. Aunt Mary was comforting her next to her.

It was too late yesterday and Mrs. Hughes didn't come into the house. Today she came to seek comfort from her best friend.

"Don't worry, I will groom old Darcy very well and arrange a very decent funeral for him. Alas, the murderer is so abominable. Poor old Darcy."

Hearing Aunt Mary say this to Mrs. Hughes, Karen couldn't help but come over and remind her:

"Yes, although the murderer brutally cut old Darcy into dozens of pieces, my aunt's ability is definitely no problem."

"Damn old Darcy!"

Aunt Mary blurted out;

She really just realized that old Darcy had turned into old Darcys.

After scolding her, her aunt immediately changed her tune:

"The damn murderer did this to old Darcy."

immediately,

Auntie couldn't care less about comforting Mrs. Hughes.

She also took out a tissue and wiped her tears.

"What's wrong with you?" Mrs. Hughes looked at Aunt Mary, aren't you supposed to be comforting me?

Aunt Mary choked up and said:

"I feel sorry for old Darcy. He is really... so miserable."

Mrs. Hughes raised her head, looked at Karen standing there, forced a smile, and said: "Karen, your aunt and I are going to have barbecue in the evening. You can go with us. That is a very famous barbecue restaurant."
