Apostle of Cthulhu

Chapter 244 Another person involved

"Wait a minute, both of you, don't rush to arrange the next thing." Bai Fuli suddenly interrupted the conversation between the two.

Si Wei and Norris knew Bai Fuli's character. If it wasn't something particularly important, she would definitely not interrupt their conversation casually, so they focused on her and asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Bai Fuli squinted her eyes and almost fell on the table. She leaned forward and looked at a booth at the edge of the bar, and asked, "Norris, do you think that person looks familiar?"

Norris followed Bai Fuli's gaze and saw a man in a formal suit sitting alone in the booth, holding a tall glass with a cocktail in it, which looked very beautiful.

But Norris didn't know this person.

"No, I don't think he looks familiar at all. Why do you have such a strange idea?"

Bevry thought for a while and replied, "There have always been rumors that you have connections in the upper echelons of the empire. I always feel that I have seen that man somewhere, so I want to ask if you know anything."

At this time, Si Wei suddenly interrupted, "The arrangements we just made are almost reasonable, right? There is nothing special that needs to be reminded."

"Indeed, as long as we follow our plan just now, we can catch Augustan Basa's true identity." Norris gave a positive response.

Bevry was absent-minded just now and basically didn't listen to the two people's plan. However, at this stage, Si Wei and Norris's plan does not need her for the time being, so it doesn't matter whether Bevry remembers the details of the plan or not.

"Then there is nothing to say. I have something to do next, so let's adjourn."

Listening to his workplace speech, Bevry's eyes were a little strange, but she was too lazy to say anything more. As a divine judge of the Divine Court, if people knew that she went into the bar for no reason, it would definitely be bad if others heard it.

She finally got out of the endless torture of the dirty and tiring work in the Court of Inquisition, and she didn't want to face that kind of living environment for the second time.

Norris would not have any objection. Mermaid Brains are indeed more common in coastal cities like Chadriel, but they are definitely not easy to find. Now he needs more time to prepare Mermaid Brains, otherwise, the plan may not keep up with the changes.

After drinking the drinks in the cups, Norris and Bai Fuli got up and left, all away from the bar in different directions.

After confirming that the two had left, Si Wei picked up his glass. The wine in it had not been finished yet, and the orange-yellow wine was still hitting the wall of the glass.

He walked to the man that Bofuli had noticed just now, sat down, and asked, "We haven't seen each other for a while, right? Mr. Jack McHauten."

Jack glanced at Si Wei and snorted coldly, "I wanted to see when you would notice my presence, but the result seems to disappoint me."

"Really? I noticed you the first time I walked in, but I chose to come over and talk to them after they left." Si Wei replied, "I thought you went somewhere after leaving Fulingdu, but you came to Chadriel as well?"

Jack did not reply directly Instead of answering Si Wei's question, he looked at the wine in his glass and said, "Is there no high-end red wine here? When the butler prepared it for me before, I thought it was popular all over the world."

"You said it yourself that it was 'high-end', so how can it be seen everywhere?" Si Wei took a sip of wine, "Mr. Jack, it's useless to keep silent. Even if you lie to me, I hope you can answer me something. You came to Chadriel, there must be some purpose, right?"

Jack was silent for a moment, "I don't have any purpose, you worry too much, I appeared here purely by accident."

Accident? Even a fool would not believe this!

What is the situation in the North Sea now? War zone, quarantine zone! Even if the pirates are quiet now, it does not mean that the alarm around the North Sea is completely lifted.

Even if it is Si Wei, if he wants to enter the North Sea area, he must take the Empire's ship, otherwise he can only rely on smuggling.

With Jack's character, Si Wei doesn't think he will choose to smuggle. Moreover, when leaving Fulingdu, Jack said that he wanted to avoid the limelight temporarily. Why did he deliberately go to a high-risk area like Chadriel to avoid the limelight?

Moreover, there are Pantheists here who are planning the revival of the Lord of the Deep Sea. No matter how you think about it, Chadriel is definitely not the first choice for hiding from the limelight!

Therefore, Jack must have something to hide from himself, so he must come to Chadriel, but Siwei is not aware of it.

However, since Jack doesn't want to say it, it's useless for Siwei to ask him. He can only care about the recent situation, "So Mr. Jack, how are you doing during this period?"

"Not very good," Jack looked at the wine in the glass, as if he was hesitating whether the things in it could be drunk, "I am managing a guy who is not very reliable. I clearly gave him the key key, and I expected him to complete the task perfectly.

"As a result, this guy not only didn't do his job well, but also provoked two guys he shouldn't have provoked. This made me very worried, and I even wondered whether the task could be completed well. "

Si Wei laughed in relief, "There's nothing I can do. These days, people who work for others are not very clean. Look at me. I will only look for people I can trust. Even if I can't trust them, I have to keep the biggest benefits in my own hands. Otherwise... many things are uncertain."

Jack glanced at Si Wei, as if thinking about the deep meaning of his words.

Si Wei just kept the smile he had just deliberately made, looking innocent, without any evil thoughts in his mind.

"You're right, maybe I should really think about a countermeasure, otherwise I won't be the biggest beneficiary." Jack thought about it and put the wine glass on the table. It was probably because of mysophobia. He couldn't drink this kind of wine. "It's time to warn that guy. In addition...Si Wei, I have something to tell you."

"There's no need for so many roundabouts between us. Just say it directly." Si Wei also put the wine glass on the table.

Jack took a deep breath, prepared his words, and then said, "I don't care how far you have investigated, or what you want to do now. Anyway... the Vandiro tree is not fully mature yet. Even if you really want to kill Augustan and destroy the Vandiro tree, you must wait until it bears fruit and has seeds. So, within three days starting from today, I don't want you to do anything that will harm the Vandiro tree and Augustan's body!"
