Chapter 172 Appear

Qin Ran looked at the handwriting on the page, and there was no surprise in his expression.

When you have doubts about Finks, the people around the other party are naturally also suspicious.

Qin Ran would not speculate on a person with the greatest malice.

But I don't believe that people in the world are kind and harmless.

Qin Ran looked at Simmons.

He wanted to inquire about Boyle in detail.

However, before Simmons could make any further explanations, Phillip floated in.

"2567, a guest from the Dark Star Association wants to see you!"

"very powerful!"

"be careful!"

The Ghost Butler wrote.

"People from the Dark Star Association want to see me?"

"Is it because of the Karl Roth matter?"

Qin Ran raised his brows, feeling puzzled in his heart.

As for the Dark Star Association, Kieran has nothing to do with it other than meeting Carlos in the Garden of the Saints.

Moreover, the matter of Karl Ross was also explained by Ni Kelei, and the Dark Star Association accepted it.

The matter has turned over, and the other party can't come to the door because of this matter.

Then why?

Especially the ghost steward's reminder, Qin Ran would not think that the other party was aimless.

With the precedents of Tiqi and Simmons, Kieran already understood that none of the people or other beings who followed Nikailei was simple.

What's more, the ghost butler who is not afraid of the sun is very special in itself.

Therefore, even though he was puzzled in his heart, it did not prevent Qin Ran from thanking the Ghost Steward for his kindness.

"Thanks, Phillip!"

After saying that, Qin Ran greeted Simmons and walked towards No. 1 Black Street.

Compared to Boyle's eccentricity, Kieran paid more attention to this "guest" of the Dark Star Society.

Simmons naturally knew this too.

However, Simmons did not follow suit.

Because, Simmons knew that if he followed up, if something happened, it would add to the chaos.

...

Walking into the reception room of Heijie No. 1, Kieran saw the familiar dark red suit.

The middle-aged man in front of him, except for a silver handkerchief in the left breast pocket, was wearing a dark red suit that was exactly the same as that of Carlos, and his temperament was very similar.

The face, beard and hair are all meticulously taken care of.

There is also a faint smile on the corner of the mouth.

However, unlike Karl Rose's concealed arrogance, the middle-aged man in front of him was very enthusiastic and polite after seeing Qin.

"Good afternoon, Mr. 2567!"

"I'm Hostil from the Dark Star Association. I have to bother you because of some things."

"I hope you can understand."

The other party said so.

"If you don't mind, let's sit down and talk."

Qin Ran, who didn't know the purpose of the other party's visit, was not in a hurry, he pointed to the sofa in the reception room and said.

"Thanks!"

The other party immediately smiled and thanked.

Then, he sat down on the sofa.

The other person's sitting posture is not the relaxed appearance of ordinary people, but a relaxed and elegant appearance.

It is easy to feel good when people see it.

Of course, Kieran is definitely not in this category.

The vigilance in his heart has risen to the highest level since seeing the other party.

The opponent's faint aura is much stronger than that of Karl Rose and Wilke.

Even though the other party has intentionally restrained himself, Kieran has no choice but to deal with the oppressive feeling caused by the occasional leak.

"So strong!"

Kieran had a concrete idea of ​​what the ghost butler said was very powerful.

However, Qin Ran did not show the shock in his heart.

He looked directly at each other.

"Mr. Hostill, why did you come to see me?"

Qin Ran asked.

"Alcatel Island!"

"Or to be more precise: that giant bronze coffin!"

"We need you to help us open that giant bronze coffin!"

Hostill said.

"Need me to open the giant bronze hall?"

This time, Qin Ran could no longer hide the surprise on his face.

It never occurred to him that the other party came because of the giant bronze hall.

After all, in his mind, the giant bronze coffin has completely become the forbidden domain of the Dark Star Association.

"Yes!"

"That giant bronze coffin can only be opened by Mr. 2567. This is a fact that we only figured out after spending a considerable amount of money!"

Bitterness appeared on Hostil's face.

That kind of bitterness was enough to tell Qin Ran that the price paid by the Dark Star Association must not be small.

However, he wanted to know more about what happened so that only he could open the giant bronze coffin.

"What happened?"

"I don't remember what I did to that giant bronze coffin."

Qin Ran asked repeatedly.

"Because you did this by accident!"

The bitterness on Hostil's face deepened.

He raised his head to look at Qin Ran, and after a few seconds of silence, he continued to speak.

"During the battle with Kilffin Hetch, you inadvertently completed the most important step in opening the giant bronze coffin: sacrifice!"

"You defeated Kilfin Heck, and sacrificed his flesh, flesh and soul to the giant bronze coffin!"

"Perhaps, you did this unintentionally, but now you are the only one who can open that giant bronze coffin!"

"And those of us who want to obtain the contents of the giant bronze coffin must cooperate with you!"

"Of course, we will pay you enough, under the witness of Your Excellency Nikarei!"

After finishing speaking, Hostil's bitterness turned into a wry smile.

Qin Ran finally understood the reason for the other party's politeness and enthusiasm towards him.

The other party wants something from him!

Looking at the other party's wry smile, Qin Ran knew very well that the other party was worried that he would open his mouth too much.

Because, from the very beginning, the Dark Star Association showed that it was certain to win the huge bronze coffin, and such a certainty was a deterrent to other people and other forces before.

But at this moment, it became Kieran's bargaining chip.

The more the Dark Star Society is determined to win the giant bronze coffin, the more benefits Kieran will get.

However, what Kieran paid more attention to was the words "under the witness of Your Excellency Nicolei" that the other party said.

"Lee, do you know about this?"

Qin Ran asked.

"Only with the consent of Your Excellency Nikare, I dare to appear here - the Night Demon Society has already experienced the strength of Your Excellency Nikore, and we Dark Star Society do not want to follow in the footsteps."

"Moreover, your assistant has a considerable status in the eyes of Your Excellency Nicole!"

"You may not know that for this opportunity to meet with you, we have made a lot of efforts; therefore, if possible, please consider carefully and don't refuse it easily!"

Hostil restrained his wry smile, and said with a slightly pleading expression.

It really is Lei!

Qin Ran sighed inwardly.

He could fully imagine what would happen to him without Nikkire.

Where will there be soft words in front of you, and kind words to persuade you.

I am afraid that the most direct force is the most direct force.

And because of this, Kieran needed to ask Nikelle more.

He believed Nikelle knew more.

And be able to give him better guidance.

For example: what kind of remuneration he wants is appropriate.

This was something Qin Ran couldn't grasp because of his own experience.

Less, he will feel distressed.

If there are too many, the other party will not agree.

Only at a point of no more and no less can the two parties reach a cooperation.

As for the contents of the giant bronze coffin?

The meaning of the other party's words is already very clear.

They won't give up.

Therefore, I took out other things as compensation.

Taking a deep breath, Kieran looked at Hostil.

"I want to ask Lei for more advice, I hope you can wait..."

Jingle bell, jingle bell...

Before Qin Ran finished speaking, the phone in the reception room rang.

Looking at the phone that rang at such a coincidence, Qin Ran immediately had a guess in his heart.

Nicole!

There are only a few people who can know the phone number here, and apart from this psychic who can almost 'see' everything, who else can call in by such a coincidence.

After making an apologetic gesture to Hostil, Kieran picked up the microphone.

Immediately, Nikelle's voice came from inside.

"2567, as my assistant, you did a great job!"

"And you being able to kill Wilke shows that you can stand on your own. So, I hope you can help me more—there seems to be some secrets hidden on Alcatel Island, and I need you to help me investigate clearly."

"I will propose the compensation for the Dark Star Association for you, and it will be handed over to you when you land on Alcatel Island. You will definitely be satisfied!"

"How about it?"

Before Qin Ran took the initiative to ask questions, Nicolei said very simply.

Following that, a series of system prompts appeared on Kieran's retina.

[The player performed well, the main quest "Serve as a psychic assistant" was completed ahead of schedule, and the new main quest "Return to Alcatel Island" was started]

[Background: Your outstanding performance has satisfied Nichelle, and she thinks you can take care of her alone and help her deal with more things...]

[Main Quest: Return to Alcatel Island]

(Hint: If you complete the main quest ahead of time and complete the new main quest, you will get a higher extra rating!)

...

"It turned out to be a new main mission?!"

Looking at the system prompt, Kieran was surprised.

Qin Ran would never be surprised if there was a side mission in the immediate matter, and would only think it was a reasonable thing.

However, the original main task was completed ahead of schedule, and a new main task appeared.

For Qin Ran, this was the first time.

"Is it because of the special copy?"

"Or is it really because I performed well?"

"Or maybe both?"

Qin Ran guessed in his heart.

However, Nikelle's answer was not slow.

"As your assistant, can I refuse?"

"I'll be ready to go right away!"

"besides……"

Facing the main task, Qin Ran naturally couldn't refuse.

But the doubt hidden in my heart needs to be asked clearly.

But this kind of questioning was interrupted by Nicole again.

"Trust your own judgment!"

Nicole hung up the phone after finishing speaking.

Trust your own judgment?

In other words, there is something wrong with Finks!

Qin Ran's heart shuddered.

The next moment, just as Qin Ran was about to say something to Hostil, a burst of footsteps sounded from the corridor.

Boyle ran in excitedly.

"Dr. Funks is back!"

"A gentleman detective brought him back!"

"Your Excellency 2567, thank you for everything you have done for Dr. Finks, I am so grateful!"

The other party said this as soon as they walked into the reception room.

"This is really good!"

Qin Ran said with a smile on his face.

But there was a sneer in my heart.
