Mystery: From Meeting Amon

Chapter 209 Expected Price
At noon, Lewis in formal attire had lunch at the Slant Manor. The bright red wine was sweet and delicious, and the mixed flavors made people intoxicated.

Having just had lunch, Mrs. Slanter gracefully wiped off the stains at the corners of her mouth, and said softly:
"Mr. Lewis, I have heard that you built a power station in the Kings Quarter, which made electricity cheaper and lighted brighter than gas lamps.

With it, all of us can organize large-scale parties and participate in various entertainment activities at night as well as during the day. "

Lewis also touched the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, and said with a smile:
"Yes, Mrs. Slanter, I am a businessman, and AC can bring me a good income."

"It's really wonderful, I must go and see it." Mrs. Slant said longingly.

Lewis returned to the room. The battle and divination in the morning consumed a lot of spirituality, and now he must recover through rest, otherwise his state will be very bad.

Suddenly, a gray mist appeared in front of Lewis. At the end of the mist was a long bronze table. On the top of the long table sat a figure covered by the gray mist. It was Mr. Fool.

Immediately afterwards, Mr. Fool's face disappeared, and a vague prayer picture appeared in front of Lewis. The person in the picture was a man. He repeated:

"Great Mister Fool, please tell the members of the Tarot Society that I need the characteristics of the Human Skin Shadow, and I am willing to pay a reasonable price for it."

After playing it several times in a row, the blurred image dissipated, and even the gray fog dissipated.

Klein is about to be promoted to Sequence Six, and his progress has already caught up with me. He is worthy of being the new 'Lord of Mysteries'... Lewis sighed. He has only been promoted to Sequence Six, and his digestion progress has not yet reached half.

However, the higher the sequence, the more difficult it is to promote, not only the difficulty of obtaining potion materials, but also the difficulty of digesting them will greatly increase.

Lewis thought about Klein's commission carefully. He could indeed get the extraordinary characteristics of the human-skinned phantom. For the favored one of the god of steam and machinery, this kind of material is even just a piece of equipment.

"Forget it, I won't reply to him for now, let my 'Family One' buy it directly, and sacrifice it to him after buying it, and earn two to three hundred pounds from reselling."

Lewis was in a good mood, and he took a short rest until the cue of inspiration woke him from his sleep.

Blinking his right eyelid three times to open his spirit vision, Lewis saw Miss Elana walking out of the wall and handing over a letter.

The letter came from Yarman Sauron. After opening it, fluent words appeared before his eyes.

"Mr Lewis:

We decided to go to explore the Quaternary tomb this Sunday, and we will bring a level 1 sealed item. Please come to the power station at two o'clock in the afternoon, and we will meet there. "

Lewis burned the letter to ashes, and Yarman actually brought a level 1 sealed item, which is indeed a big family, such a big hand.

Putting aside the matter of exploration for the time being, Lewis went to find the characteristics of the human-skinned phantom. He bought it from the Church of Steam and Machinery for 1800 pounds without much effort.

"It shouldn't be too much to sell it to Klein for 2100 pounds. After all, Mr. Destiny's favored ones have to survive. Besides, Klein doesn't know how much I paid for it. I said 2100 pounds is not a problem at all."

Walking out of the church, Lewis smiled lightly, took this opportunity to visit the private detective, and then looked for things about Mandy.

From Ms. Bella's mouth before, he has already learned of multiple human trafficking locations that cooperate with the Wild Wolf Gang. He can easily find the information he wants as long as he investigates the trends of those populations two years ago.

And if you want to investigate the whereabouts of a slave two years ago, local private investigators are the best. They have rich investigation experience and local resources, and they even have ambiguous relationships with those underground organizations.

After making some inquiries on the street, Lewis spotted a detective who had helped the police solve several human trafficking cases. It is said that this detective had been engaged in human trafficking before and had a good understanding of it.

"Hopefully Detective Rupert can actually find some traces."

With such a mood, Lewis pushed open the door of Rupert Detective Agency. Fortunately, the detective happened to be there.

"Loenian?" Rupert frowned, as if he didn't have a good impression of Lewis.

However, Lewis could also understand that the stubborn Loenians and the romantic and open-minded Intis were born at odds, so it was reasonable that the detective didn't like the Loenians.

In other words, unruly people are naturally a little disgusted with honest people, because some of the latter's behaviors are slapping the former.

"Yes, I want to find a lady. She was involved in human trafficking two years ago and I don't know where she is now." Lewis sat down by himself and asked the maid for a cup of coffee with sugar.

Detective Rupert frowned deeply from beginning to end. He inquired about the characteristics of the person he was looking for, and asked Lewis if he had any more specific news.

Lewis had already prepared the news in advance, and he had already pinpointed the number of organizations that eventually handled the slaves to five.

Seeing that Lewis arranged the preparations so well, Rupert was momentarily surprised by Lewis' carefulness. With this information, it would be much easier to find a missing person.

The people of Loen may not understand romance, but their meticulous side is also worthy of admiration. Perhaps, the people of Loen are more suitable for the detective industry than the people of Intis.

"So, what is the expected price in your heart?" After confirming the difficulty of the case, Rupert lit a cigar and began to discuss the price.

"I will pay a deposit of 50 pounds. If there is news, I will pay a final payment of 200 pounds. If I can directly meet the trafficked slave, I will pay an additional [-] pounds!"

Rupert's hands trembled a little, 300 pounds a time, which is equivalent to his annual income, even though his detective agency business is quite good!

And this is just to investigate a missing lady. Of course, it does not rule out that the lady is dead.

"Annie, serve the best coffee to this elegant and handsome Loen gentleman, using the coffee beans I brought back from the Southern Continent." Rupert squeezed out an ugly smile, and his attitude changed accordingly.

Lewis took the coffee. While tasting the fragrant coffee, he drew a portrait of Mandy. Even if he didn't use divination, he could still become a qualified painter by virtue of the characteristics of a "machine".

However, his intuition was faintly uneasy, could it really be so easy to find Mandy?

The angel of time took away Mandy's fate. Before the goal was achieved, would there really be no preparations?
