Man in the old days, Lord of the Seven Sins

Chapter 12 I agree with this matter
"Hi, I'm Rhodes."

Rhodes took off the black leather gloves and stretched out his hand.

"Nice to meet you, Margaret."

"Me too."

With a smile on her face, Margaret took off the tulle gloves on her hands.

The two held hands together under the witness of Adams.

A bright smile appeared on Adams' old face, but in the next second, his complexion changed, and he suddenly took out a handkerchief and coughed violently.

"cough cough"

"grandfather!?"

Margaret got up and looked at her grandfather worriedly.

Rhode thought of what was written in the notes on the list, and his eyes showed melancholy.

"It's okay, don't worry, it's an old problem." Adams put the handkerchief in his pocket, lowered his head, held Margaret's hand with one hand, and stretched out the other hand, wanting to hold Rhode's hand.

"Grandpa, I'm here."

Yorkshire suddenly squeezed Rhodes away and forcibly held Adams' hand.

"Grandpa, you must live well."

Seemingly thinking of something sad, Yorkshire burst into tears.

"Hey." A sigh sounded.

Adams glanced at his grandson, and suddenly thought of his son and his son-in-law. He sat down with his grandchildren, with sadness in his eyes.

"I'm fine, don't worry about me, you all sit down."

Rhodes didn't think so much, traumatic pneumonia is a sudden severe cough, as long as he is fine now.

Margaret looked at Grandpa suspiciously. Usually, Grandpa's face would turn pale when he coughed. Why is it still the same today?

However, considering that Grandpa's illness might have improved, Margaret felt a little joyful.

The four of them were chatting in the living room, and the time soon came to noon. Adams wanted to stay with Rhodes for lunch, but Rhodes refused because he had something to deal with.

It's really that Yorkshire is too enthusiastic, and he wants to pull him out to play inside and outside the words.

But after seeing what the other party played last night, Rhodes was completely unwilling. Who knew if there were any weird problems, he didn't want to grow cauliflower at a young age.

Moreover, Yorkshire's words were too deliberate, and there was always a vague rejection of him in it, and he didn't seem to welcome him very much.

As for Margaret, with a few simple probing words, Rhodes could see what the other party was thinking.

How can a person with great goals and ambitions be bound at a young age?

On the other hand, Adams, an old man, tried to exert himself several times but was hindered by his grandson, and he didn't seem to be in a very optimistic mood.

The happy family has a good personality, and there is no output of sinful power.

Rhodes got into the carriage and left.

Inside the manor.

Adams clutched his chest, glared at Yorkshire, finally snorted, and left with the housekeeper.

Only Yorkshire and Margaret were left in the living room.

"Brother, you didn't have to do this. Rhodes saved your life. If you do this, you will make yourself suffer the crime, and grandpa..." Margaret looked at her brother and said puzzledly: " I can refuse myself."

Yorkshire smiled and shook his head. He stood in the shadows, his deep voice echoing in the room.

"My dear sister, Rhodes is a very good person. I admire him very much. He has an aura that only the strong deserve to possess. If you miss him, you will regret it for the rest of your life. My brother and I I value him very much, so I will never let you reject him personally!
I know you have your own pursuit, your own ambition, do it hard, don't have any burdens, although now I have become a cripple, but my brother will still support you behind you.

Don't blame grandpa, he just can't understand your wish, as the successor of the seven virtues, your potential is unparalleled, much stronger than my brother back then. "

Yorkshire leaves.

Margaret looked at the family crest symbolizing the golden lion on the wall of the living room, and was in a daze.

She will bear the future and honor of the family on her back, moving forward all the way.

In a daze, Rhode's figure suddenly appeared in front of Margaret's eyes, and the shock in her brother's eyes when she heard the other party's cadenced words at the door of the living room just now, and her gaffe-like appearance rang in her ears.

Those sharp words are more deeply rooted in people's hearts than what she said in "I Have a Dream".

Will he be someone who has the same path as me?
Margaret's awareness was high, but Rhode's awareness quickly became worthless because of Margaret's gift.

If you want to ask the reason, it is true that rich women are too fragrant.

A rapier with steam mechanical technology added.

The black sword body is about 1.1 meters long, and the guard is a silver-white sharp bird's head, which can protect the hand well. The inner side of the guard is inlaid with a complex precision bearing composed of three steam mechanical technologies.

When using it, it can increase the speed of the stabbing sword with the increase of power, and at the same time convert the excess power into scorching steam, causing distance damage.

It is basically a black technology version of artificial sword energy.

As for asking why Rhodes is so clear, it is entirely because this thing is hung in the store opened by the Steam Machinery Bureau. million crowns.

Women will affect my speed of drawing a sword, but a rich woman will give me a good sword.

It can only be said that it is too fragrant.

Rhode felt that he would not refuse Margaret to ask him to do things in the future. After all, who would refuse the kindness released by a rich woman?
Especially the kindness of using this kind of money to clear the way.

Old London slaughterhouse.

When Rhodes arrived, John from the Administration Bureau was already waiting here.

In the office, Rhode looked at Investigator John whose face was swollen almost as big as a millstone, and asked, "What's the matter? Investigator John?"

John was silent for a while, and silently put a letter and a black package in his hand on the table.

"Master Yorkshire asked me to give this to you."

Rhodes narrowed his eyes.

He suddenly remembered the newspaper he read in the morning, Yorkshire's car crashed, and it was John who took the blame.

Looks like these two still know each other?

Moreover, John called Yorkshire the young master in his words, which is very interesting.

Rhodes picked up the letter, opened it, and there was a large stack of thick banknotes and a piece of paper inside.

"Rhode, my dear friend, I'm sorry that my words just now may have annoyed you, but there are reasons for that, if you are annoyed by this, please listen to me when we meet next time.

From John, I heard that you have successfully operated on Paul and are a very skilled doctor, so, there is one thing, I need your help.

My friend is missing, you met the one yesterday, I suspect that she has a lot to do with the recent disappearances, John is doing his best to investigate, and my sister has also heard about it, she Her honest and kind character made her choose to help her helpless brother find his friends, so I hope you can participate in this matter as a doctor, and if you can, help me take care of her.

Of course, I have a small request. You need to wear a mask. You cannot let my sister know your identity. The mask is ready, and I will ask John to give it to you.

Finally, for our friendship, I have prepared a little heart for you, I hope you will be satisfied. "

Rhodes counted the money, a total of 5 crowns.

5 kroner to play a role-playing detective game with Marguerite.

The objects to be dealt with are most likely to be some demons similar to those they met yesterday.

Rhodes took out Grandpa's list of personnel from his pocket, and it would take a while for the next one to turn.

There is plenty of time.

It was such a good deal that he probably didn't even need to, since his character was a doctor, after all.

"This matter, I promise."
