Chapter 242 Leonard feels that he has been tricked

Leonard imagined the smell of rotting corpses, perfume, and even other messy smells, but he never imagined that when he walked in, he would see a table full of fish and enjoy this sumptuous meal.

Dinner is a cat.

"Have you never seen a cat eating fish?" Lily noticed Leonard's gaze and said dissatisfiedly, then stretched out her paws, picked out a piece of grilled fish, picked out the thorns and stuffed it into her mouth.

Makes a classic meowing sound.

"Okay, Mr. Red Glove, you come to me for something more important than observing my cat, right?"

A voice with a hint of ridicule suddenly sounded, and Leonard realized that he had actually ignored the real owner.

"Why didn't you remind me, old man?" Leonard frowned, but then he said in a businesslike manner:

"Mr. Snow, I would like to consult you on something."

Although there was little communication, Leonard still subconsciously used honorifics. Snow smiled slightly, then put his hands in his pockets and said in a frivolous tone:

"I see, haha, I understand, you probably didn't report it to your superiors, right?"

Leonard looked at the opponent's smile that made people want to punch him, took a deep breath, but still nodded.

"Very honest." Snow's tone was still somewhat sarcastic, "Tell me, what information do you want to get from me? My charges are still very fair, but you'd better hurry up, I only have half

hours of time.”

"Charge..." Leonard's mouth twitched, but he still said:

"Sherlock Moriarty, or rather, Crane Moretti, what does he want to do?"

"These two issues need to be charged separately. Klein and Sherlock are different individuals." Snow's tone became slightly more serious, but Leonard frowned -

"They are not the same person?"

"It's true that you are the same person, but do you want to do the same thing as you did half a year ago and you do now?"

Snow had a smile on his face, but Leonard was silent for a moment, and a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes——

"You mean, Klein didn't fake his death on purpose to escape?"

Snow just smiled, and then pulled out a price list like magic——

"Klein's purpose is 10 pounds, and Sherlock's purpose is 1,000 pounds. We accept magical items, characteristics and potion formulas, and settle them at market prices. They can also be deducted through tasks. As a nightmare in sequence seven, you have a risk-free routine.

The task is worth 100 pounds. Based on this, if you commit to ten tasks, you can exchange for all the answers you want."

"Mission..." Leonard's mouth twitched slightly. Seeing that the old man still had no intention of giving him a hint, he shook his head and said:

"Forget the mission, I want to understand Klein's purpose first." Leonard took out his wallet and took out ten one-pound banknotes. As a Red Glove, his salary is quite good. Compared to the Nighthawks team

The captain is one level higher.

Snow took the banknotes, counted them casually, and then nodded:

"Klein's purpose or wish is very simple, to let his relatives live a good life. He is also working hard for this. Even if he has some special secrets, he is just a guy with no ambitions."

"..." Leonard was slightly silent. Although what he said was a bit harsh, Klein's impression in his heart was indeed like this...

"What about Sherlock?" Leonard frowned and continued to ask, but he saw the man in front of him making a gesture of rubbing his fingers.

"I have a weekly salary of twenty-five pounds and a subsidy from the police department. I can save a thousand pounds in half a year!" Leonard tried to prove his ability to pay, but Snow said with a straight face:

"It's also possible that you will die tomorrow."

"Forehead……"

"In our industry, it's not that you can't invest, but you must at least make a profit. Is it good for me to take the risk and let you borrow money on credit? No good, of course. If you are willing to accept the task, then let's talk about it. Well, if you can be promoted to Requiem

Master, just one mission can replace the debt of one thousand pounds."

Listening to Snow's slow words, Leonard's eyes glanced at the cat in the corner for some reason. At this time, the pair of amber eyes were staring at him with a special look...

"Can I hear the type of mission first?"

Leonard took a deep breath and asked somewhat compromisingly. He could secretly join the Destiny Hermits, and naturally he wouldn't mind taking on some private work, as long as it didn't violate his moral standards.

"Investigating intelligence, protecting relevant people, obtaining special items, theft, assassination... there are various tasks, but we can mark the scope of what we can accept in the contract, for example, we will not accept assassinations, and we will not accept those targeting the Zhengshen Church.

Of course, you can also agree to accept the task first, and then redeem it after you have the extraordinary items. By the way, gold pounds are not accepted for task redemption."

Snow introduced the business very familiarly, and then spread his hands and said:

"Don't think too darkly about me. If you have any doubts, I will help you answer your questions with a copy of the main ingredient for the potion at the seventh level of the sequence... or a time insect."

"The Worm of Time, what is that?" Leonard asked subconsciously, but Snow just smiled and said nothing.

Regarding the opponent's Riddler attributes, Leonard only felt his veins bulging, but after thinking for a moment, he still nodded and said:

"I have three hundred pounds in cash here, and the remaining seven hundred pounds, seven missions, right?"

"Well, that's right, come on, let's sign a contract first." Snow knew very well that Palles had the ability to violate the contract, but he still laid out a standard contract and motioned for Leonard to sign it.

Although he ranks among the three idiots in the sun, moon and stars, Leonard's brain is actually pretty easy to use. It's just that he has an external brain called Palles, so he is usually too lazy to use his brain.

Pales didn't speak at this time. Instead, he became vigilant and read the contract carefully several times before finally signing his name.

Feeling the restraint that had been established, Leonard couldn't wait to ask:

"Why did Sherlock Moriarty come to Backlund? What is his purpose?"

"Sherlock's purpose is to be divided into two parts." Snow's smile became brighter and brighter, but Leonard's face turned pale——

"You're not going to charge separately again, are you?"

"No, no, no, please believe in my professional ethics. I will never do anything like increasing fees after paying." Snow shook his head seriously, and then explained:

"Sherlock Moriarty has two purposes after his resurrection, revenge and returning home."

Regarding revenge and going home, Leonard easily understood the meaning, but when he felt that this question was not worth a thousand pounds, he noticed a key word——

"resurrection?"
