After eating snacks and drinking tea, Ventura sent Karen and Alfred to the door of the apartment when they left.

"Thank you again to your grandma for me. The snacks she made are very suitable for my taste."

"Thank you. Grandma will definitely be very happy when she hears your compliment."

After they separated, Karen and Alfred got into the car.

"Master, the benefactor of the Ventura family is actually Master Dis."

Alfred also recognized it. After all, he had been a close opponent with Dis.

"Um."

"In this way, it will be natural for Ventura to become your subordinate in the future."

"No, nothing is taken for granted. Grandpa probably helped them for the purpose of experimenting. Although the final result benefited them, it was essentially an equal transaction between both parties.

It is their business to be grateful, so there is no need for us to label ourselves as benefactors.

Besides, it’s impossible for grandpa’s affairs to be made public.”

"What the young master is thinking about is..."

"Okay, let's go home, I want to take a rest."

…

The next afternoon, Karen was sitting in the study, drinking ice water and reading a book, when the phone rang.

"Hello, Pavarro Funeral Society."

"Karen." The captain's voice came from the other side of the phone, "I almost forgot to congratulate you for passing the selection."

"If there's something wrong, captain, please tell me."

Karen would not be so naive as to think that the captain really suddenly forgot "congratulations" and therefore made this call specifically.

"That's right, I'm currently leading most of the team on a mission in Sampu City."

"Why didn't you notify me?"

"I left late last night. I was thinking that you had to prepare for the final selection. I was afraid that it would affect you, so I didn't notify you. By the way, the specific date has come out. At 8 o'clock the day after tomorrow, I still go to the Academic Affairs Building and use the teleportation circle to go to the selection venue.

You remember the time."

"Okay, I've written it down."

"But there is one more thing I need your help with. I can't help it. I can't spare my manpower right now."

"Captain, tell me."

"Go to the Requier Theater in the South District and pick up something for me. The theater starts performances at seven o'clock in the evening. You can buy a ticket and go in. Find an actor named Hiddink and tell him that Hound asked you to pick up the item. He

I will give you something.

I don’t know what he used to put it in, but if you’re curious, you can open it and take a look, it’ll be fine.”

"Okay, Captain, I understand."

"Well, thank you for your hard work. I won't worry if I let someone else pick up that thing."

"I'll go get it. By the way, Captain, have you been to the Lemar Ceramics Museum?"

"I've been there, it's still early, isn't it? I asked Memphis to go look at that pottery museum last night."

"Memphis?"

"Well, originally I wanted to arrange for Richard to go, but Richard's legs and feet are not convenient."

"My legs and feet are... inconvenient?"

"It seems like his leg was broken."

"this……"

"So it's not convenient for Memphis to stay at home for the time being, so I asked him to go to the pottery studio."

"Okay, I understand, Captain."

"That's it for now. I'm going to start the arrest operation tonight, so I need to take a rest first."

"Um."

After hanging up the phone, Karen walked out of the study. In the warehouse, Alfred, Pu'er, and Kevin were conducting tempering experiments, preparing to officially start with the egg.

So Karen didn't ask Alfred to go out with him. When he walked to the front hall, he saw Peake and Dincom sitting there reading the newspaper.

Karen waved to Pique: "Pique, come out with me."

"Yes, boss."

Under Dincom's envious gaze, Pique got into the driver's seat and helped his boss drive.

It was too early for the performance, so Karen did not go to the Requier Theater first, but came to the Lemar Ceramics Museum.

Peake stayed in the car and waited. Karen got out of the car and opened the door and walked into the pottery hall. As soon as he walked in, he saw Memphis sitting there with a turntable in front of him, making pottery.

Seeing Karen coming, Memphis subconsciously stood up.

"No, no, no, keep going, keep going, don't delay the work."

Memphis continued to sit and carefully continued to control the angle with his hands.

"Where's Mr. Lemar?" Karen asked.

"Just went out to buy dinner." Memphis replied.

"When did you come?"

"The captain asked me to come last night. It just happened that I couldn't stay at home."

"Richard..."

"Both legs are broken."

Karen pursed her lips and said, "Sorry, if I had been more determined, he would have gotten the spot."

But even if you fail the selection, you can't be beaten so badly, right?

When did the Guman family’s tutors become so strict?

In fact, the reason why Richard has such a laid-back personality is because he was not under much pressure when he was a child, and his family was very tolerant of him, especially after his parents separated.

"Huh?" Memphis realized that Karen had misunderstood, "It was not because of the selection. He made other mistakes."

"Other mistakes, what mistakes?"

Memphis was a little hesitant, because this mistake was not easy to talk about, but due to "Karen's identity", Memphis decided not to hide it, and said: "He used my name to sign orders at a dim sum shop all over the street."

Karen blinked and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth twice. In order to prevent himself from laughing, he could only sigh a few times with his mouth open.

Well, these two legs were not broken unfairly.

Karen even wondered if Richard asked Memphis to go to the snack shop yesterday and ask him to give him the name "Master Eisen", which directly added fuel to the fire and burned his leg.

"He's still young."

Memphis said: "In fact, he is no longer..."

"The more you hit, the better."

Memphis was stunned for a moment and nodded: "It is useful."

"His talent is very good, but he has not been able to fully realize it. I think he needs some sense of urgency."

"Yes, I understand, I know, this is my problem. I neglected to spur him because of my own reasons."

"But you also have to pay attention to the method. Although there are magic methods to treat broken legs, and there is a bug in his body to help recover, it is still too ugly after all.

Moreover, it won’t take long for him to get used to being beaten on the flesh, and if he doesn’t do it well, he will also feel pleasure.”

"What do you mean?"

"Some mental spells are quite good. They can torture people without leaving any scars. They can also help them develop their potential."

"What you said makes sense!"

At this time, Mr. Lemar came back with the dishes. When he saw Karen, a smile appeared on his face and said, "You haven't had dinner, have you?"

"not yet."

"Together, together!"

Mr. Memphis finally gave up on his semi-finished product and went to wash his hands. Then the three of them sat at the counter and ate dinner. Lemar even took some out and gave it to Peake who was sitting in the car.

After the simple dinner, Karen took another look at Serena. Serena was sitting on the bed in her bedroom, motionless. She was still "locked". Karen said a few words to her.

Encouraging words, I did my best and walked out of the bedroom.

Mr. Memphis spent the night here last night and will probably spend the night tonight too.

Karen guessed that he probably just told himself the truth. Maybe the excuse for beating Richard to the family was that Richard failed to be selected. Therefore, beating Richard so badly under this excuse would definitely attract the family.

He complained, so it was not convenient for him to go home for the time being, so he might as well stay here temporarily.
