Chapter 582 Dewey Calls

"Is someone knocking on the door?" I asked confused.

Lilea didn't seem to hear clearly. She moved her ears, listened carefully, and said, "There was no knock on the door."

After hearing what she said, I listened carefully for a while, and there was indeed no knock on the door.

At this moment, Remi licked the candy and said in a vague voice: "Brother, there is someone knocking on the door."

Since Remi said that, it was probably right. As soon as Lilea and I walked out of the room, we heard another knock on the door.

Lilea looked wary and asked, "Could it be someone who is hostile to Remi?"

I shook my head and said, "Probably not. I guess it's probably a family member who forgot to bring the key."

At this time, Remi had already taken out the small crossbow and said cautiously: "Just in case, you open the door and I will prepare from behind. If there is a change, I will give him an arrow first."

There was a big bead of sweat hanging on my temples, and I was speechless.

With a creak, the door opened. At the door was a very familiar face, but it was not a family member, but a staff member of the adventurer base.

I greeted him and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Yes, Mr. An Xiaoyi, there is a letter from you at the base."

"Is it the call crystal or the message that was passed on?" I asked again.

"Calling crystal," he said, "and I'm still waiting."

"Okay, I understand, thank you, I'll go right away."

After that, he closed the door.

Lilea sighed softly and put away the crossbow. I curled my lips and asked, "Do you want to come together?"

She shook her head and said, "You go ahead, I'll stay with little Remi at home."

"Okay," I said, "If she gets into trouble, just bring her to me."

I quickly came to the adventurer base, picked up the call crystal, and a familiar voice came into my ears: "Xiaoyi, if you are free recently, how about a trip to Fort Vicky?"

It's Dewey.

I gritted my teeth and remembered what happened not long ago when I wanted to borrow money from Dewey, but was treated coldly and perfunctorily by the lady who answered the call, so I said calmly: "I've been very busy recently, so I can't go. By the way, Dewey, you're done now. ?"

"Busy? What are you busy with?" Dewey's tone was very puzzled: "I'm never busy."

"Oh, no," I said, "I spoke to you once before, and the person who answered the call was a woman. She said you were very busy and didn't have time to talk to me. Oh, by the way, I asked her for help after that. I send you a message once, but I don’t know whether she conveyed it to you in the end.”

"No," Dewey said, "Except for a few clients, I haven't received any requests to contact me in the past few days!"

"Eh? Really? It seems like my request was ignored~"

"Yeah." Dewey made a deep nasal sound. It seemed that he was a little unhappy. After a while, he asked: "Xiao Yi, tell me, why did you come to see me that time?"

"It's nothing. I just want to buy a new house. I don't have any money, so I wanted to borrow it from you. Fortunately, I later transferred enough funds from home, so there was no delay."

"That's it." Dewey was silent for a moment and said, "I understand, Xiaoyi, don't worry, I will give you a satisfactory answer to this matter as soon as possible. Okay, let's just turn the page. What are you talking about?" Are you free?"

"I really don't know about this," I said, "No, I just came back from Airui City, and I brought back a child."

"You have a child?" Dewey asked in surprise: "When did you have a child? Is it an illegitimate child or a legitimate child?"

"Don't make trouble," I said, "He's an orphan."

"Hey, from the moment we met, I felt that you were a terrible good person. I didn't expect that you are really a terrible good person."

Dewey's tone was so tactful that I could even imagine the way he shook his head when he said this.

I bared my teeth and said unhappily: "Please, what do you mean by a bad good person? I call this a great good person, okay?"

Dewey's head burst into obscene laughter.

Soon, the staff at the Adventurer Base brought a list and asked me, "Is this Mr. An Xiaoyi?"

"Ah, is something wrong?" I asked.

"This is the 100,000 gold coins just remitted. Please sign for it."

"Ten, one hundred thousand gold coins!"

I was confused for a moment, what is going on?

I took the order and glanced at the sender list at the bottom. It read: Dewey.

At the same time, Dewey's laughter came from the crystal: "Hahahaha, Xiaoyi, this is my gift for moving into your new home. As for the gift, it will arrive in the mail in a few days."

"This, this, so much" I exclaimed: "And there are also congratulations, congratulations, congratulatory gifts?"

"Moreover, my people just investigated and found out that a female employee concealed something about you. I have already punished her. I believe that similar things will not happen again in the future. So, Xiaoyi, you just Forget about the previous unpleasantness."

Already found it?

By the way, Dewey’s work efficiency is really high!

Hey, it’s nice to have money.

Now that Dewey has reached this point, I can no longer show my temper, so hehehe said: "How can I be embarrassed to accept so many gifts from you~"

"Hey, what's the relationship between us?" Dewey said: "In the future, when I get old and can't work anymore, I might want you to inherit my career!"

"Don't make trouble." I cut it off and said, "I don't want to make such a futile joke with you."

"How can this be a joke?" Dewey said: "I have no children, so it's easy to meet someone with a personality and temper that I can't deal with. Hey, he's a good person. How can I do it if I don't hold on tightly?"

"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore." I interrupted the topic and said, "Tell me, what do you want to see me for?"

"It's not just the crooked tattoos on your arms. I've already decrypted the two previous ones. I was wondering if you could come over and leave two more for me so that I can continue to decode them. Otherwise, I'll be here all day long. , and there’s nothing to do.”

"Don't have anything to do?" I chuckled and said, "You can find a goblin girl to give you a bunch of heirs~ Oh, by the way, with your assets, you can find him eighteen hundred goblin girls. Very wealthy too.”

"Don't tease me about this," Dewey said, "If I wanted to find it, I would have found it a long time ago. There is no need for you to say, OK, you decide whether you come to me or I go to you." There?"

"It's better not to bother you. I'll take the whole family to your place and treat it as a sightseeing trip."

"Okay, it's settled," Dewey said, "You choose a time, and I'll wait for you here."

"It's just a few days, I'll use the call crystal to notify you when I'm leaving."

After discussing it, I hung up the crystal, and the staff asked me, should I take these 100,000 gold coins away directly or store them in the adventurer base?

Without thinking, I answered directly: Take it away.

However, what I didn't expect was that this turned out to be a very wrong decision for me.
