They all call me master
Chapter 15 Ms. Long Night’s Salon!
Hear Arthur's words.
Although he was deceived by Doculer, Vonter did not hesitate at this time. He took out his wallet and started to pay.
When two gold tickets with a denomination of 10 were placed on the desk in the medium's hall, Arthur was surprised. He had guessed that Fontelle came from a wealthy family, but he did not expect to be so rich.
‘He took out the 20 gold tickets without blinking. It looked like the other party was really frightened. ’
'Moreover, it is richer than imagined. ’
'That's right, only such rich people don't have to run around for life, are full of romantic fantasies, and are lured here by Dokul. ’
'how about you? ’
Arthur thought in his heart and looked at Wiggins.
In fact, Arthur cared more about Wiggins than Vonter, who could be seen as wealthy at a glance.
Dokul is bad, but not stupid.
Choosing Fontel and Wiggins naturally had their own purpose: to make things ferment quickly and leave him no room to turn.
Fontel and Wiggins can make things ferment quickly, proving that they have considerable influence in their respective classes.
Needless to say, Vonter has a lot of money.
Wiggins is different.
If you just look at the way he is dressed, Wiggins is a commoner, a relatively poor one, but his fingers are quite clean, especially his nails, which are extremely neatly trimmed. He does not look like those suffering people at all, but more like a person. A middle-class hand.
And, more importantly, the other party also has contact with Dokul.
You know, people like Dokul will never contact or make friends with a real civilian unless the other person is of extremely high value.
After further contacting Doculle's profession as a reporter and Wiggins' action of lowering the brim of his hat when he saw the police, as well as the fact that Wiggins still remained "humble" and "silent" at this moment, the identity of the other party was finally determined by Arthur.
Goldfinger (thief)!
Only Goldfinger who lives on the streets fits Wiggins's current appearance, and will allow Doculer, a reporter, to take the initiative to contact him.
As for gang members?
It is absolutely impossible to be 'silent' like now. At least some simple words such as 'Who am I?' 'Who is my boss?' can still be said.
Moreover, there is a high probability that Dokul would not dare to provoke gang members. The other party needs someone to deal with unnecessary troubles and to find out some information.
Goldfinger's appearance is enough, but do you really want gang members to take action?
That is to deal with small troubles and usher in bigger troubles.
Thinking of this, Arthur's slightly narrowed eyes became brighter and brighter.
Maybe Wiggins, who was born in Goldfinger, can't handle too much trouble, but when it comes to dealing with small troubles, he is very handy. At least it is more useful in South Los Angeles than calling the police.
And the ‘Goldfinger’s are definitely the most well-informed people in South Los Angeles.
These are the most suitable for Dokul as a reporter.
Of course, it is also necessary for the 'psychic medium' Arthur.
Especially the news!
'A good medium must have a reliable source. ’
Arthur thought what old Charlie said was quite reasonable.
Therefore, Arthur looked at Wiggins with a little more expectation.
Wiggins, who was standing aside, was immediately stunned after seeing Vonter take out two golden tickets.
Even if he spent all his wealth, he couldn't even get 10 gold tickets.
Although he makes a lot of money as a 'Goldfinger' and can gain something every time he goes to the shopping street in the dock area, most of the money must be handed over to the police and local gang members in the form of 'protection fees'. Otherwise, he would have disappeared from the streets of Nanlos within three days.
Now that Vonter has given him 20 golden tickets, what should he do?
At exactly this moment, Arthur glanced at him, and the inexplicable meaning in his eyes made Wiggins' scalp tingle. The scene just now frightened the young 'Goldfinger'.
Not only was Arthur's curse killing people, but also his attitude of taking out a blunderbuss and shooting directly when facing Sheriff Lauck.
Wiggins cannot accurately evaluate the former because it is too novel and weird, but Wiggins is qualified to evaluate the latter.
He had seen similar people.
There are such characters in those docks and street gangs.
Not many, just one or two.
But one or two people like this are the key to those gangs gaining a foothold. Whenever the gang's life or death comes, it is these people who take action.
That posture was exactly the same as Arthur's.
In the year when Wiggins first became 'Goldfinger', he saw the 'Blood Dog Gang' in the dock area being invaded by outsiders and most of the people were dispersed. The guy from the 'Blood Dog Gang' took action. , one person killed four outsiders, especially the leader of the outsiders, whose entire head was chopped off.
At that time, that person's gaze was the same as Arthur's now.
‘My head won’t be chopped off, right? ’
Wiggins' legs were shaking, but his mind was spinning faster and faster.
Some people are just confused when they encounter danger, but some people's brains work extraordinarily. Wiggins is such a person.
At the beginning, Wiggins was confused when he encountered danger.
But he was lucky, he survived that time.
Afterwards, when encountering danger again, Wiggins will never let his mind wander.
Because he wants to live.
Just like this moment.
When cold sweat broke out on his forehead, Wiggins' first thought was 'selling himself'.
For a 'goldfinger' like him who comes from the streets, the most valuable thing is himself.
And there are many guys who are very happy to do this.
But Wiggins is a little reluctant. It's not that he really yearns for more freedom, but he feels that it would be a bit cheap if he just sells himself. He is really unwilling to do so.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration occurred, and Wiggins thought of something.
Immediately, this 'Goldfinger' who was born on the street took off his hat and put it on his chest like the decent people. After bowing slightly, he said: "I can tell you a secret."
Wiggins didn't say what the secret was, but glanced at Fontel and Scott.
Scott pulled the curious Vonter out and walked out. When he walked out of the medium's hall, he closed the door.
Immediately, only Arthur and Wiggins were left in the psychic hall.
Without hesitation, Wiggins spoke immediately.
"Sir Kratos, have you heard of the 'Lady of the Night'?"
Lady of the Night?
Arthur frowned and began to look through the memories of his predecessor again.
Soon, he found the answer he wanted.
The Lady of the Night is quite famous among a small group of people in South Los Angeles.
Because it was this lady who held the first salon in Nanlos - the salon first became popular in the Inner Bay. At first it was just for the aristocrats to entertain themselves, but with the addition of some scholars, painters and writers, there were more It meant having similar interests, but with the addition of pioneers, businessmen and speculators, the salon gradually turned into a vanity fair.
The Lady of the Long Night seized the opportunity and held her first salon directly in South Los.
Although there are many followers, none of them can touch the 'Ms. Long Night's Salon' in the slightest, because the salon is only the first half, and the auction in the second half is the highlight.
That lady was very smart in controlling the core and non-replicable parts.
Therefore, a considerable number of South Los people are proud to participate in the "Lady's Salon of the Night".
Even, it is believed that the real upper class people must be able to participate in the "Lady's Salon of the Long Night".
The predecessor was that after hearing these things from old Charlie, he longed for them - he thought it would be the stage for him to become famous.
‘Malinda Julius Caesar? ’
Wiggins had already spoken to this extent, so Arthur naturally knew who the other party was referring to.
Then, there was a cry of admiration.
‘It’s amazing! ’
He knew very well how difficult it was for a woman to do this in traditional and conservative South Los Angeles.
At the same time, the other party's ability is so amazing.
Of course, the level of danger is also rising straight up.
‘We have to be more careful! ’
Arthur warned himself.
Women have always been troublesome.
And a capable woman?
That's big trouble.
But that was after, now?
Arthur's face darkened deliberately.
"Wiggins, are you kidding me?"
Arthur asked directly, his voice still calm and indifferent, but there was a coldness in his eyes.
The skill [Intimidate] starts to flash.
It wasn't that he turned his back upon getting the news. Arthur wasn't that bottomless, but because Wiggins was being cunning.
You must know that when the lady left just now, in addition to putting down the 10 gold ticket, she also asked the coachman to send a real thank you gift after talking for a while.
What would that thank you gift be?
Most likely it is an invitation to the salon.
At that time, Malinda Julius Caesar's identity naturally cannot be concealed.
And Wiggins wants to use this kind of free method to escape compensation, which Arthur can't bear - because if he really agrees, I'm afraid he won't get any gratitude from Wiggins, but will be robbed by Wiggins As a fool.
This is the calculation and philistinism imprinted in the bones of Wiggins, who was born on the street.
Even if you are shrouded in fear, it will not change.
Only when you die will you regret it too late.
Why does Arthur know so well?
Because he had seen too many similar people before.
Even though the style of these people is slightly darker than that of Goldfinger, the essence of their street background has not changed.
Wiggins was shocked when his little trick was exposed by Arthur. Looking at Arthur's threatening eyes, he immediately started sweating. This 'Goldfinger' who was born on the street really felt the breath of death.
Without any hesitation, he immediately said loudly——
"I am willing to be your subordinate, your eyes and ears, to find out information for you, to be your dagger in the dark, to solve unnecessary troubles for you!"
