It was still the same billiard room, and it was still Kaspars who was lame on one leg, but Snow felt that his expression seemed a little different. He raised his head and winked at the people playing with him until they disappeared.
, then he asked:
"You didn't offend Maric, did you?"
"No, what's wrong?" Snow looked at Kaspars, who was a little uncomfortable, and said with a puzzled look on his face.
"Maric asked me about you this morning." Kaspars said vaguely, and then said, "He is in the original chess and card room. You can just go find him yourself."
Snow was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Thank you."
"It's nothing. If I had known you were so powerful, I wouldn't have helped you hide it... You were obviously scared away by a group of gangsters before..." Caspars waved his hand, and Snow didn't say much, just silently
After adding attention to him, he left the billiards room.
"Click..."
When the door was pushed open, Snow was surprised to find that there were no living corpses in the room, which surprised him——
"Has Ke Ting already arrived?"
"Who..." Maric's yell, which seemed to be half a beat too late, reached his ears at this moment, but immediately after, he closed his mouth.
"It seems that you already understand the effect of the spell?" Snow raised his eyebrows and asked with a little playfulness.
"What do you want?" Maric's voice was low, with a fierce look in his eyes, but his words were a little timid.
Don't be cowardly. After all, the ability to reverse the negative state of the full moon is undoubtedly precious to them on the run. More importantly, he can reverse the negative state, which means that he has a high probability of aggravating the negative effects.
ability.
"Not counting the previous trial items, it's three hundred pounds a piece. You should understand that I don't charge a premium." Snow stretched out his hand and pulled out the chair in front of the chess and card table, and sat down carelessly, with a look on his face, "This is already my cost."
The profiteer's expression.
But seeing Maric's expression of embarrassment, he laughed again:
"Of course, if you can't pay for the time being, I will also provide other payment methods. For example, if the resentful lady is willing to accept some commissions, I can use charms as reward or something. Of course, this requires signing a contract first."
"We need to discuss it." Maric did not reply immediately, and Snow also looked like he had known this would happen, and said casually:
"No problem, I will stay in Backlund for a short time. However, if you don't trust the messenger, wouldn't it be better to find an intermediary to summon you?"
…
"Are you going to take on that mission?" Maric asked with a frown as he watched the door of the chess and card room being closed again, as if he heard something suddenly.
"Lack of money."
"Do you think that detective can afford a reward of one thousand... one thousand six hundred pounds?" Maric obviously had no hope for the poor-looking detective, but the cold voice replied:
"He knew he had offended a big shot."
"That's right, but it seems that he didn't leave any contact information." As soon as Maric spoke, there was a moment of silence in the air. After a while, the cold voice uttered a few words——
"Ask Caspars."
…
After leaving the Brave Bar, Snow immediately relaxed. Even if there was a butterfly effect due to his own existence, Miss Sharon would still be short of money if she did not encounter the janitor's glove. In this way, she accepted the task of overcoming cowardice.
The probability will increase. Even if Ke Ting does not release a mission, he can use the spell as a price to hire them to protect Ke Ting.
Just as he was making calculations in his mind, he suddenly noticed a woman with chestnut hair and a perfect figure wearing an old-fashioned soft hat, a girly yellow cake skirt, and a pair of black leather shoes walking towards him.
Before his brain could react, his hand had already been raised, and when he finally began to realize what he had encountered, his mouth had already made a sound:
"Good afternoon, Huang Beibei."
"I [flower-planting expletive]!" Snow wailed crazily in his heart, and even wanted to slap himself, but he forced himself to maintain his composure and said in a somewhat embarrassed tone:
"I'm sorry, ma'am, I admit..."
However, before he finished speaking, thick pea vines were already hanging down from the sky, but the pedestrians around him didn't seem to notice it at all. In the blink of an eye, the surrounding environment was completely separated, and the lady didn't know when she would come.
arrived in front of him.
…
Bernadette's eyes flashed with complex emotions, and she quietly looked at the young man in front of her, savoring the name he subconsciously called before.
"huangbeibei......"
The pronunciation didn't sound like Runeese, but the word "beibei" reminded her of her father. When she was very young, and perhaps hadn't even learned to speak yet, that man would often use some strange ungrammatical overlapping words.
Talking to himself, it seemed that he called himself "beibei" at that time.
In fact, today's meeting was not a chance encounter. Just last night, when the resentful spirit of the temperance sect asked her to identify the talisman, she had some doubts because of the somewhat inexplicable activation phrase - "Turtles are longer than snakes", she
Ever heard of it.
When that man was still a loving father, she once heard him scold someone as a "gangster". It was difficult to understand this compound word with strange grammar. She asked her father about the meaning of this description, and her father also
He told her some stories such as "a white horse is not a horse" and "a turtle is longer than a snake".
As an extraordinary person who can see into the secret path, she was very interested in this unseen talisman. Coupled with the activation words that evoked her memories, she tried to divine the source of the talisman.
But no results were obtained.
As the founder of Elemental Dawn and a big figure in the mysterious world, there are not many beings in the world who can invalidate Bernadette's divination. Coupled with the previous coincidences, it completely evoked a touch of unrealistic thoughts in her heart.
But when the two of them just met, he called out a name that evoked her memory. Although she didn't know what the "huang" in front of it meant, Bernadette was sure that it was definitely not a random call!
Even if it wasn't the back-up left behind by that man, it must have something to do with it!
Bernadette thought so firmly.
…
Seeing Huang Beibei staring at him silently, Snow felt his scalp numb. Should it be said to be retribution? He mentioned her in his diary just now, and then he met her when he came back. Is this also a kind of aggregation?
But no matter what, now he must find a way to survive!
He recalled in his mind the "social skills" left to him by his predecessor, then forced a social smile on his face, and said in a slightly frightened tone:
"Madam, would you believe me if I said I had the wrong person?"
