Count of Wizards

Following the fluctuations, Connor slowly opened his eyes, with endless joy in his eyes.

"Is this the junior apprentice? What a wonderful feeling!"

"It took seven days to become a junior apprentice from an ordinary person, and I don't know whether my talent is good or bad. It's a pity that the current chip doesn't absorb enough knowledge to help me optimize the basic meditation ideas. What a pity! "

"Chip, I have become a junior apprentice now, can I try to get rid of the green light spots in my body?" Connor asked the chip with some hope:

"Drip! The test is complete, I'm sorry for the host, after becoming a junior apprentice, you still can't get rid of the green light spots in your body!" The cold female voice of the chip quickly gave the answer in Connor's mind.

Getting this answer immediately made Connor's face darken instantly, and the joy of becoming a junior apprentice was instantly washed away.

"Do you really have to ask Reyes for help?"

This question rose in Connor's mind. He remembered that when the sun emblem he hung on his body blocked Vidal's destructive corrosive acid spell, Vidal once shouted "Magic item!", the name Perhaps it is a magical item, the correct name in the wizarding world. As for Vidal's greedy eyes when he saw the sun emblem that day, Connor still remembers it vividly.

Judging from the greedy eyes and Vidal's lack of a magical item, Connor felt that magical items might be considered quite precious in the entire wizarding world.

To be able to give such a precious magical item to himself at will, it seems that he, the Reyes mentor, is not a simple person!

"Ding! Ding!..."

Just when Connor was thinking about his mentor Reyes, without any warning, his doorbell was rang.

Hearing his own doorbell ring, Connor was a little surprised. Except for the people who delivered food to him, no one else had rang the doorbell of his apartment these days. Excuse me, I didn't order takeaway, so who will be ringing his doorbell now?

Instead of opening the door directly, Connor opened the peephole and observed his "guest!"

The "guest" was a little old man in a gray trench coat, a peaked cap, and a smoking pipe in his mouth.

As if he noticed that Connor had come to the door, the little old man took off his peaked cap, and looked at the cat's eyes with a half-smile!

"Crack!"

Connor opened the door expressionlessly, then turned around and went back to the room to sit on the sofa.

Seeing Connor's "indifference", the little old man with a pipe in his mouth didn't care. He closed the door with a smile and walked into the room. He didn't show any politeness to Connor, and sat directly on the sofa opposite Connor. .

"Master Ferguson, as expected of an aristocrat, even the apartment he lives in is so luxurious. This Percy carpet and crystal lamp... must cost a lot of money, right?" The little old man praised with a smile on his wrinkled face. road:

"Valverde, what are you doing here?" Connor took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:

That's right, the little old man sitting on the sofa opposite Connor, smoking a pipe is the famous detective Valverde whom Connor hired to investigate Rebecca. When he saw Valverde coming from the cat's eyes, Connor understood that he was going to be in trouble!

Valverde called himself "Master Ferguson". Connor knew that this was not a casual title. This was Valverde telling himself that he had already checked his details! Now that he has been checked by him, if he pretends to be stupid and pretends not to know Valverde, he is insulting his IQ.

"Hey, Master Ferguson, I Valverde is fifty-nine this year. I can't bear the job of a detective at such an age, but I can't help it. If I don't work, I will have nothing to eat. I When I was a detective, I was afraid of hurting my family, so I didn’t even marry a wife, let alone have a child, and now I don’t even have a person to support me, I’ve really failed in my life!” He took the pipe out of his mouth , Valverde put on a pitiful look.

"Hahahahaha..."

Seeing Valverde's pitiful appearance, Connor couldn't help laughing wildly, but when the laughter reached its peak, it stopped abruptly, and Connor suddenly rushed in front of Valverde, staring at him. Valverde said coldly; "Don't tell me these useless things, just make a price, how much do you want!"

Although Connor moved quickly, Valverde's eyes showed no panic at all, "Master Ferguson, look at what you said, it seems that I, Valverde, blackmailed you, I just found out that after I gave you Rebecca and Bi A few days after Dahl's information, the two of them disappeared, and they were never found again!"

"I, Valverde, have always done my best to my employer. After I found out that the two of them were missing, I was afraid that something would happen to you, Master Ferguson, so I rushed to find you. Master Ferguson, you look like this now, It really scared me, can you please return to your position? Valverde is old, and his brain can't work when he is frightened. If he loses something, he can't use his brain well. , but it’s not so good…”

Feeling the blackmail in Valverde's words, Connor secretly sighed in his heart, the thing he was most worried about did not expect to happen after all! Although this is the case in his heart, Connor knows that he must be very strong, and he must not let Valverde have the illusion that he can knead at will!

"Snapped!"

Instead of retreating to his position as Valverde asked, Connor slapped Valverde's old face with his right hand fiercely.

"I said don't use these things with me, how much do you want?"

No matter how old and cunning Valverde is, he never imagined that Connor would be so fierce, and that he would dare to humiliate himself so much when the handle was in his own hands! With this slap, Valverde was completely stunned by Connor!

Suppressing the hatred in his eyes, Valverde wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth, and without caring about acting with Connor, he said directly: "Ten thousand pounds, besides that, I want a manor!"

"Ten thousand pounds? A manor?" Connor asked in disbelief. He looked at Valverde like he was looking at a fool. Let’s not talk about a huge sum of 10,000 gold pounds, but this manor is completely a lion’s mouth. You must know that the market price of a manor in the Kaman Empire starts at least 15,000 gold pounds!
