Danetta screamed in panic after getting Eric's order.

"No, kitchen!"

The village girl rushed to the kitchen eagerly, while Eric said helplessly to Charlotte: "Sorry, she is so careless and makes you laugh."

Charlotte shook her head and said politely: "No, I'm visiting rashly, so please don't mind."

He just thought that the maid opened the door to welcome him and relaxed to take care of the food being cooked.

"I wonder what's wrong with you?"

Although Carlin kept complaining in his heart, he still controlled Eric and asked Charlotte's purpose with a smile.

"Mr. Eric has only been in Steam City for a short time, right?"

However, Charlotte did not immediately explain her purpose of coming. Instead, she and Eric had a casual chat.

"Yes, the business environment in the New World is too harsh. Originally, my father was a strong professional and had the ability to maintain his wealth, but he passed away due to an accident last year.

As a trainee, I could not save those coveted factories and plantations, so I sold all my real estate and left the New World."

"It's such a shame, please have my condolences"

While the two were chatting, Danetta had already arrived in the kitchen. At this time, white mist filled the kitchen, isolating the spirituality here from the outside world.

Danetta knew that the master was trying to make things easier for her, so she immediately lit a flame with her hands and rushed towards the food on the table and stove.

With a bang, the stove and the food on the table were burned to ashes. Then Danetta took a deep breath and cast flames to light the wooden table again.

All the movements caused by her ability were not noticed by Charlotte in the foyer.

Danetta's cooking skills were taught by Carlin, and some of the dishes are unique to Carlin's home, and it happened that Charlotte once had a meal at his home.

It would be great fun if he saw the food in the kitchen, and Carlin had to let Eric kill someone.

Killing Charlotte is easy, but it can only cover it up for a few days.

Mycroft, who was furious after his brother's death, could easily find out from Charlotte's itinerary that the last place his brother was seen in public was No. 9 Jasmine Street.

In this case, Eric's innocent identity will probably be given up.

Karin doesn't want to give up this identity for the time being, otherwise it will be a lot less convenient to move around the Steam City.

The next moment, the white fog in the kitchen disappeared, and a thick smoke floated out of the room, followed by another scream, accompanied by a violent spirituality.

The faces of Zheng, Xia Luoxu and the cowardly Eric in the foyer changed, and they rushed towards the kitchen.

Charlotte was stunned for a moment. He felt that there seemed to be a fire in the kitchen, and rushed to the kitchen after him.

When he rushed to the kitchen, he saw that the stove and wooden table were burning, while Eric and Danetta were putting out the fire.

Danetta held a wet cloth and stood in the flames, beating wildly. The flames seemed to do no harm to her.

And Eric cast a cloud of cold white mist to continuously extinguish the flames.

All the flames were quickly extinguished, but the kitchen was left in a mess, with ashes and smoke everywhere.

Eric's face turned livid at first, but then turned helpless again.

"The power of your blood is too violent and cannot be controlled well. It seems that you are not suitable for housework in a short time."

Then he looked at Charlotte with an apologetic look and said: "Sorry, she is a good prospect I found in the talent agency market, and she has only been a transcendent for ten days.

Although I have completed the apprenticeship stage of growth in one breath due to the spiritual shock last night, I am temporarily unable to control my bloodline power and often make such jokes, which makes you laugh. Why don't you come to visit me another day? "

Eric's meaning of seeing off guests was very obvious. After all, this happened to the host's house, and it was hard for the guests to stay any longer.

But Charlotte didn't seem to understand, and said politely: "I'm the one who bothered you, and I won't waste a lot of your time."

"Okay, please hurry up, I haven't had breakfast yet."

Eric expressed his dissatisfaction tactfully. It was very rude for the guest to force the host to accompany him hungry.

But Charlotte just showed an apologetic smile, and then he no longer concealed it and directly told his true purpose.

"Actually, the reason why I came to visit this time is because of the case of the Shadow Brigade."

Eric felt helpless and couldn't get rid of Charlotte's face. After all, he was the younger brother of the director of the Security Bureau, and he also belonged to the aristocratic class.

He, a foreign gentleman who had just arrived, could not act too reckless and tough when he was dissatisfied, otherwise he would not be able to maintain his character and would be easily noticed by Charlotte.

When facing Charlotte, it is most appropriate to express your dissatisfaction appropriately but be very polite considering the identity of the other party.

Danetta was left to clean up the messy kitchen, while Eric and Charlotte walked and talked to sit down on the sofa in the foyer.

Through Charlotte's story, Carlin knew what was going on.

Brent Kingdom officials have searched everywhere for traces of the Shadow Brigade with great fanfare, but so far they have found nothing. Instead, they have caused chaos in several areas where low-level civilians live in the lower reaches of the Ram River.

During this period, some nobles and extraordinary organizations have expressed their dissatisfaction, because some of the black gloves and gray businesses they supported have also been affected. They hope that the officials can pay attention to the intensity.

There is no problem in searching for traces of the Shadow Brigade, but their interests cannot be affected.

As a result, the officials no longer conducted a high-profile manhunt, but instead began to secretly pursue clues.

Charlotte was obviously also working on the case of the Shadow Brigade, and he focused his breakthrough on the extraordinary beings who had only come to the Steam City from other places in the past few months.

According to statistics, a total of more than thirty extraordinary people from other places came to the Steam City within four months. He personally visited each one to search for some clues. So far, he has visited more than twenty people, and today it is his turn to Here comes Eric.

Eric listened to Charlotte's story with a smile on his face. After the other party finished speaking, he said, "Then do you think I am suspicious?"

Charlotte smiled and said: "Based on the information collected before and the observations just now, I can confirm that you are a kind gentleman.

If it were anyone else who encountered this kind of maid, she would have scolded her and fired her, but you graciously forgave her for her mistake. "

Eric just smiled in response. He didn't believe a word Charlotte said. Otherwise, what happened to the two agents squatting near the apartment these days and monitoring his movements?

"Normally speaking, this is correct, but after all, she is also a transcendent person, and will become my housekeeper in the future. Of course, I cannot treat her like a mortal.

From this point of view, my suspicion has not been cleared. "

After sighing, Eric picked up the newspaper he had thrown aside and said: "Compared to the Shadow Brigade, I think you, the great detective, should be more concerned about these missing girls. This may be a supernatural being committing the crime. .”

After hearing this, Charlotte took the newspaper and saw today's headlines.

‘Another victim has been added to the serial disappearance case of downstream girls.’

In the past six months, many girls have disappeared in several districts downstream of the Lamu River. They are all young girls from lower-class civilian families.

In fact, some girls started to disappear even earlier, but the missing people were all low-level civilians, so the police station didn't pay much attention to it.

But as girls began to disappear in the central and commercial districts, it attracted official attention.

After all, the lives of mud-legged people at the bottom of the lower reaches of the Ram River are worthless, but if decent people also get into trouble one after another, the nature will be very serious.

So the police finally started to investigate, but until today, there is no clue about this case.

Ciel also understood what Eric meant, and the other party expressed some dissatisfaction to him tactfully, hinting that he was not very idle.

If he had time to investigate the case of the Shadow Troupe, he might as well focus on the case of the missing girl.

After all, a criminal gang like the Shadow Brigade naturally has officials to worry about, and there is no shortage of him like Charlotte.
