Apostle of Cthulhu

Chapter 250 Assassination Bounty

Si Wei took off his newsboy cap and glasses and returned to the Pirate Inn. He Ling, wearing a red dress, stood at the door and seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

Si Wei took a few steps forward, greeted her, and asked, "Miss He Ling, good afternoon."

He Ling performed a simple skirt-lifting salute and asked respectfully, "Mr. Si Wei, please allow me to ask if Miss Siti Victor is safe now? I don't want her to be in danger after I put her in a trustworthy place."

"Okay, don't use such an awkward way of communication," Si Wei waved his hand and said, "I asked my assistant to take good care of her. She should be in the hotel now."

Hearing this, He Ling nodded gently, "That's good, Mr. Isaac asked me to take care of Miss Siti, but I encountered some problems that I had to deal with, and I didn't want to disappoint Mr. Isaac."

"Come in with me," Si Wei made a gesture of invitation, not feeling awkward because of their identities, "I also have something to ask you."

He Ling naturally did not refuse. Her task was to take good care of Siti. The Pirate Hotel was Janian's base, but with Si Wei leading her in, there would be no problem.

Just as he was about to take a step, Si Wei noticed some very strange points.

It was true that He Ling's long skirt was red, but the color of some areas was darker or lighter, and there was even some white lace on the corners.

With some bad guesses in his mind, Si Wei asked tentatively: "Miss He Ling, the color of this long skirt doesn't match your upper body clothes. Is this your personal preference?"

Hearing this, He Ling lowered her head to look at her skirt and replied: "It was originally white, but because of some accidents, I dyed it all red."

Si Wei understood instantly, probably all the blood of those stalkers was on this skirt...

Leading He Ling into the Pirate Hotel, Jenny An was sitting on a chair in the hotel lobby today, holding one or two bottles of beer in her hand and pouring them into her mouth.

She recognized He Ling the first time she saw her and said, "Isn't this Miss Spy? Are you coming to my territory today to continue your undercover work?"

Si Wei spoke up and stopped Janian's weird behavior, "Janian, this is a guest I brought in personally. There have been some big things happening in the pirate circle recently, and I want to ask some details."

For Janian now, Si Wei's words are more important than anything else. Even though this is actually Kayo's territory, as long as Si Wei speaks, Janian has a way to make Kayo shut up.

Kayo, who was sitting at the desk, just glanced at He Ling and said nothing more.

He took He Ling to his room. At this moment, Jia and Siti had returned to his room.

But Ivana didn't know where she went. I guess she returned to Victor Mansion after waking up.

"Is the matter resolved?" Jia Ya saw Si Wei coming back and bringing back an unfamiliar person of the opposite sex, and asked, "Is this the Heling Fiana?"

He Ling still showed respect for Jia Ya, whom he had never met before, "I am Heling Fiana, Miss Assistant, thank you for protecting Siti, your kindness, I will remember it in my heart."

"It's not that serious," Jia Ya imitated Si Wei to wave her hands, "It's just a coincidence, my name is Jia Grinweier, nice to meet you."

Jia... Grinweier?

Upon hearing this name, He Ling raised his head suddenly and looked at Jia Ya with a rather incredible look.

Even Isaac had never seen He Ling show such an expression.

Si Wei did not interrupt the scene in front of him.

Jia was puzzled by He Ling's behavior. She frowned slightly and asked, "Miss Fianna?"

"Sorry, I'm rude," He Ling responded, cleared his throat, and eased the embarrassment. "I just had the honor of working with Senior Bai Fuli Shelley, so I have heard of your existence. Please forgive me for my misbehavior just now."

Has Jia had any disputes with Bai Fuli before? Although there was indeed a certain hostility when they were in Akra, I really don't know what happened between the two of them.

Si Wei crossed his arms and silently guessed the relationship between Bai Fuli and Jia, but with the clues he had now, he probably couldn't guess it in this lifetime.

Siti looked at the three people with her innocent eyes, and couldn't understand their conversation at all.

"Then, Miss He Ling, I have a few questions for you about the problems Isaac is facing."

He Ling pressed his right hand on his chest, "I will answer any questions I know and never hide anything."

With this answer, Si Wei was already relieved. He Ling has not shown any second thoughts about Isaac, so her answer is true.

"Has Isaac figured out who posted the bounty?"

He Ling shook his head decisively, "No, Mr. Isaac wanted to peek into the future, but was blocked by some unexpected creations. We can't figure out the source of the interference yet, but it's still difficult to find out the existence of that guy."

Has the astrologer's peek into the future been disturbed? It's a bit like me...

Si Wei asked again: "Has there ever been a situation where even Isaac is almost unable to resist?"

"Not yet. The people who accept the bounty now are just a bunch of people. But if some high-sequence node missionaries really accept the bounty, Mr. Isaac may be in danger."

This is true. The cooperative relationship between Norris and Isaac only lasted at the Island of the Gods. Now Norris can even accept the reward and use his strength to directly break into Victor's mansion and take away Isaac. There is no problem with the heads on the items.

At least for now, Norris's power is beyond everyone's expectations, and Si Wei is certain of his guess.

Even if Isaac hires Norris as his bodyguard now, he probably won't succeed. Because he and Si Wei had more important matters to deal with that were basically related to the safety of the world. Who would care about his life?

"So, do you have any suspicions so far?"

Regarding this question, He Ling actually had an answer.

"This is not Lord Isaac's conclusion, it is just a conclusion reached by several more important crew members of our Black Raven." Herring specifically raised this point to avoid problems with the conclusion in the future and smear Isaac. "We suspect... …It was the remnants of the other three star cores from the four-star core who planned this assassination reward.”
