353 House of Shadows Division 3
() The temperature in the room became a little low, and Staci, who was sipping snacks, was obediently hugged by Raymond and sat on his lap.
But Raymond, who was noncommittal to the bald old man's statement, began to tap on the table with his fingers, and the bald old man whose eyes followed Raymond's fingers, his cheeks trembled with the rhythm of Raymond's fingers. up.
Looking straight into the eyes of the bald old man, he was soon overwhelmed by the faint pressure.
Despair appeared on his face, and his eyes became struggling. In the end, as if he had lost all his strength, the bald old man sat down in a chair and spoke. "Those who ordered the Scorching Flame Potion will come and take it away in a while, that's all I can say..."
Immediately, his fingers stopped tapping on the table, and a smile appeared on Raymond's face. "Is the handover place in this room?"
The bald old man, who became depressed, took out a wine jug from his pocket, and took a sip down it. "Yes, right here." ..
"How strong is the person who bought the potion?" Seeing that the bald old man's psychological defense had been broken, Raymond, who no longer tried to suppress him, started a provocative cross-examination. "A native of Limon City, or an outsider?"
"My lord, it's really impossible for you to escape the pursuit of the House of Shadows," the bald old man smiled wryly, but he became a little unwilling to give up. "The inspectors will definitely capture you within two days, no one can make trouble on the site of the House of Shadows!"
"Don't try to provoke me." Lei Meng's face became dark, and his tone became indifferent. "I said, you answer!"
The bald old man with a long sigh shivered in front of Raymond's expressionless face, and then began to answer. "The intended person is an outsider. Although the strength of her guard is only at the level of a knight, she herself has a magic weapon that can prevent her strength from being detected. The background must be very simple!"
Raymond, who was thinking about the most serious situation, continued to ask. "How strong is the inspector of the House of Shadows? Why did he arrive here in two days?"
The bald old man who started the explanation thoroughly seemed to give up resistance, and it was through his explanation that Raymond roughly understood the actual situation.
It turns out that Limon City is the only city in the east that has a fixed airship route. Originally, there were inspectors of second-level wizards sitting here for a long time. Not in Limon City.
But if Raymond dared to make trouble here, the inspectors who would come back within two days were simply not something a first-level wizard could handle. Moreover, the second-level wizard sitting in Limon City is still famous for tracking down his whereabouts.
"My lord, you really need to think carefully," the bald old man persuaded Raymond as if feeling that his heart was becoming heavy. "Just treat it as a chance encounter with the booker. If you can come to an agreement with her, I can forget about it!"
The expression is sincere. The bald old man's explanation made Raymond feel tricky. Because the pursuit of the second-level wizard is no joke.
Raymond, who frowned, pondered for a long time before asking with some uncertainty. "Then if the booker didn't have an accident in the Shadow House branch, then it has nothing to do with you?"
"In theory, though," said the bald old man with a wry smile on his face, obviously understanding what Raymond meant. Immediately came to a conclusion. "But the potential strength of the booker will only exceed your imagination!"
Raymond nodded to show that he understood, and stopped talking. Instead, he waited for the person who ordered the medicine to arrive. While thinking about how to deal with it.
The worst possibility is to face the inspectors of the House of Shadows branch. It is impossible for Raymond to take little Staci away from Limon City in two days. Physical damage is also unbearable for Raymond.
But just when Raymond was in a dilemma and couldn't think of a safe solution, there were extremely heavy footsteps coming from the stairs.
Boom boom boom...
Feeling the tremors on the floor under his feet, Lei Meng quickly turned his head, but when he saw clearly the person emerging from below, he couldn't help being stunned.
The messy hair, one big and one small two heads, turned out to be the two-headed man I met on the street before.
And this two-headed man with sweat on his forehead also had a surprised expression on his face after seeing Raymond and little Staci.
"Hey! We meet again!" Surprise flashed in the four eyes, but the unanimous exclamation made little Staci amused.
Lei Meng, who quickly thought about the countermeasures in his mind, saw that the two-headed man appeared in the room, and finally there was a glimmer of hope in his heart.
Sure enough, following the two-headed man was the beautiful woman in the silver hollow half-length armor, and her other two-headed man's guard also followed her and appeared in front of her eyes.
"Hey, I saw you and your lovely daughter again," said the beautiful blue eyes with surprise, and a bright smile bloomed on this beautiful woman's face. "What a coincidence!"
"It's a bit of a coincidence, I'm here to buy the Burning Flame Potion," Lei Meng, who stood up and put little Staci on the ground, said bluntly with a smile on his face. "But it's a pity that there is only one bottle in the Shadow House branch here, and it has been booked out."
Suspicion flashed in her eyes, but when the beautiful woman's eyes turned to the bald old man's side, the old man made a subtle shaking of his head.
"Oh, that's really unfortunate," she seemed relieved, but when the young woman walked over, hesitation appeared on her face. "It seems that the only bottle of burning potion here is reserved by me, how can I do this!"
Seeing the emergence of a glimmer of hope, Raymond suppressed the excitement in his heart and smiled wryly. "I'm Raymond, and this is Stacey under my care."
The well-behaved little Staci immediately understood what Raymond meant. She carefully pinched the corner of her skirt and bowed slightly according to the etiquette she had learned to greet this beautiful woman. "Hi pretty lady. I'm Stacey."
The corners of her mouth turned up suddenly, and the pretty woman with surprise on her face immediately knelt down and greeted Staci. "Hello! I'm Dorothea, nice to meet you!"
"But little Stacy, why don't you call me sister?" Dorothea, who pursed her attractive red lips and looked angry, uttered an exaggerated shout. "Do I look so old?" (To be continued.)
