"That's it, Deathstroke."
Xu Le held the Death Knell in his hand. Even though it looked like a pocket watch, since it was called the Death Knell, he could only call it the Death Knell.
"Is there anything you fancy, sir?"
At this moment, the salesgirl's eyes were full of stars. She was a Red Moon Warlock!
A Red Moon Warlock who can tell fortunes, and can do so seven times in a row.
This is simply more powerful and more fascinating than a man having sex seven times a night.
However, Xu Le just smiled lightly, ignoring the admiration in the salesgirl's eyes, and said casually:
"How do you sell this thing?"
The salesgirl looked at the Death Bell logo and the shopping list, and after confirming that everything was correct, she said:
“This thing is called Wang Beichuan’s pocket watch. It is a handmade watch with great artistic value, and its energy grade is extremely high, it should have reached SU grade.
So even if it is a sealed relic, it still costs 6,000 yuan."
"6,000 yuan? Can it be cheaper?"
"I'm sorry, sir, we don't bargain here."
The salesgirl did not look down on Xu Le for his bargaining, because when your status and strength reach a certain level.
Some actions that seem to be out of place in one's status will be seen as frugal, thoughtful, and thrifty in the eyes of some people.
Just like Xu Le’s previous life.
The evaluation of a migrant worker eating fried noodles at a street stall and a rich second-generation eating fried noodles at a street stall are completely different.
"Is that so? Then, help me wrap it up."
"OK."
Xu Le counted out 600 10-yuan bills from his bag and paid readily.
The item, the death knell, almost perfectly met Bai Jing's requirements.
Xu Le didn't want to cause any more trouble, but he also didn't plan to buy the relic in the name of the team.
If it could be unsealed, this relic would undoubtedly be an extremely powerful item that he could use himself.
The problem now is to determine who this Wang Beichuan is.
"Is there anything else you need, sir?"
The salesgirl was very nice and approached him very close to her, but unfortunately Xu Le's mind was not on her at all.
"Where are my two companions from before? Do you know where they went?"
"Please wait a moment."
Xu Le nodded and waited for a while. The salesgirl soon got the news about Gu Beichen and Wang Shu from her colleagues.
"Sir, your two companions are now in the rest area. You can go find them. Do you need me to accompany you?"
"No, thank you."
Xu Le waved his hand and walked straight towards the rest area.
After he left, the salesgirl returned to the staff lounge. It was already dinner time.
While eating, she was full of lust but also a little regretful.
Being able to talk for a long time with a Red Moon Warlock and fortune teller was truly a memorable experience. Unfortunately, I didn't have some wonderful encounters with Xu Le.
Her foreman also noticed something was wrong, so he asked:
"Sanna, what's wrong with you? Did a customer bully you?"
"No, no, no, I'm not bullying you. I'm just trying to get ahead of myself. I really want to get to know him, but unfortunately he doesn't like me."
Shanna's answer surprised everyone else. This girl is usually very arrogant. Did she take the wrong medicine today
"Are you in love? Who is that person?"
“I just served a warlock, he was very young and handsome, and he also bought a sealed relic for 6,000 yuan.
But these are not the most amazing things. The most amazing thing is that he is a fortune teller. He just made fortunes seven times in a row, so he should be a Red Moon Warlock."
"Wow, a young warlock and a beautiful saleswoman, isn't there any other progress?"
Some women started to make a scene, but Shanna just shook her head helplessly:
"I've already told you that people don't think highly of me."
While the women were chatting and joking, their foreman frowned slightly.
"A young Red Moon Warlock performed divination seven times in a short period of time? Is there such a powerful fortune teller in Area C?"
The foreman left the lounge calmly and walked towards the more advanced office area.
…
On the other side, Xu Le walked silently to the rest area. From a distance, he could hear Gu Beichen boasting while drinking.
"Xiao Shu, you know that Xu Le has just joined us. We have to forgive his ignorance, right?"
Wang Shu said nothing, just drank the water in silence, but Gu Beichen showed no sign of restraining himself:
“Look, this is what’s wrong with you, you act so deep when I talk to you.
As seniors, shouldn't we guide the younger generation?"
Cough cough!
Xu Le coughed twice to indicate that he had arrived. Wang Shu, who was sober, naturally knew it and stood up.
But Gu Beichen, who was already a little drunk, shouted:
"Hey, Xiaoshu, why are you standing up?"
"Brother Beichen is really awesome. I will let Brother Beichen take good care of me in the future."
Xu Le joked.
"Um... no problem, no problem."
Gu Beichen saw Xu Le coming back and laughed dryly a few times.
Fortunately, he was a man who could tell the difference between the important and the unimportant. After looking around, he asked Xu Le:
"What exactly did the captain ask you to buy?"
"You were drunk, and I didn't want to tell you."
"I'm sober. Drinking is just a disguise. If you don't believe me, ask Xiaoshu."
Wang Shu frowned slightly, but after looking at Gu Beichen twice, he nodded to Xu Le:
"Beichen is still reliable."
With Shu Ge's endorsement, Xu Le naturally had nothing to hide, after all, Shu Ge was the captain's confidant.
Xu Le picked up the bottle of wine on the table and poured himself a glass.
When he brought it to his mouth, he put it down again and replaced it with a glass of juice.
"The captain wants to continue the mission, but she's not sure at all, so she asked me to come over and look around to see if there are any soul-soothing items."
When they heard Xu Le talking about the mission, Gu Beichen and Wang Shu were silent for a moment.
After a while, Wang Shu looked at Xu Le thoughtfully:
"Do you have any idea?"
"Yes."
Xu Le took out the Death Knell. It was impossible for him to unlock this thing by himself.
The power of the Night's Watch must be mobilized to help him find it.
A SU-level soul-soothing relic, even a level 4 ancient sound is still effective.
"A broken pocket watch? A sealed relic? What can this thing do?"
Gu Beichen's words were still so annoying, but Wang Shu asked very soberly:
"Is this thing's ability the key to helping the captain?"
“I don’t know if it’s the key, but if it can be unsealed, in the hands of a Red Moon Warlock, it should be something that can change the situation.”
Wang Shu nodded, and there was a little more light in his eyes.
He really wanted to help Bai Jing, but he also knew that his ability was not enough to help Bai Jing.
Only a mysterious sorcerer like Xu Le can make any progress in this matter.
So even if Xu Le asked him to drag Gu Beichen away just now, and even used an imperative tone, he would still obey.
Now that there is hope, it is naturally something that Wang Shu is very happy to see.
"What do you want us to do for you? Unblock this thing?"
"Yes, if we remove the seal, we will have a stable means to deal with the soul."
Xu Le's expression was firm, and Wang Shu already understood what he meant:
"Illegal?"
"It's unclear at the moment, but the owner of this relic has a deep sin in his heart. His name is Wang Beichuan."
"Is that all this information?" Gu Beichen looked surprised.
"Yes, only one name, but this pocket watch is a handmade clock, but it is made very delicately. He may be a watchmaker."
Hearing this, Wang Shu also frowned slightly:
"If there are only a few clues, it will be very difficult to find them."
"I know it's difficult, so I'm asking for your help."
"knew."
The topic seemed to be coming to an end after this, and Xu Le had no intention of spending any money here.
Even though he was burdened with so much debt, he still had some self-awareness.
He stood up and was about to leave. Wang Shu followed him, making Gu Beichen so angry that he shouted:
"So much wine, you don't want to drink it?"
"No more."
"What a waste, wait for me"
Seeing that the two were really leaving, Gu Beichen did not stay alone and hurriedly followed them.
As the three of them walked up the stairs, an old man in his 60s came out with his hands behind his back.
"Sanna, right? This is the person you're talking about?"
The person he questioned was actually the salesgirl Shanna who had served Xu Le.
Although Shanna had never seen the old man in front of her, she saw that their general manager was very respectful in front of the old man.
As a person who is good at dealing with people, she naturally knows the extraordinary identity of the person in front of her.
"Yes, sir, that's the man I'm talking about."
"Okay, don't be nervous, I'm just asking casually. Here, this is your red envelope, take it."
The old man seemed very kind, but Shanna was a little flattered.
"Thank you, thank you sir."
The old man waved his hand and said to his subordinates:
"Follow him and test his character."
"yes."
"Wait, forget it, I'll go by myself."
…
When Xu Le and the other two returned to the black market, it had started raining and most of the stalls had been closed.
They didn't waste any time and headed towards the street corner.
Gu Beichen was drunk, and Xu Le and Wang Shu didn't have a driver's license, so the car had to be left here.
When three guys without umbrellas wanted to stand under a roadside billboard to avoid the rain and wait for the bus, they found that there were many people hiding there.
There was an old man carrying a lot of luggage, two students, a boy and a girl, and a middle-aged man who looked a little anxious.
The billboard is not big to begin with, and if Xu Le and the others squeeze in at this time, it will be very crowded, and they may even squeeze people out.
So, the three of them didn't say anything and just stood outside the billboard in the rain.
"Three pretentious dealers." Someone inside laughed at them.
But Xu Le didn't say anything, and didn't even look at him.
Even Gu Beichen, who had the worst temper, just took a look inside and continued to wait for the bus outside in the rain silently.
They are the night watchmen, they are the ones who seek light, and they are the ones who protect this city.
This is something you need to remember the moment you join the Night's Watch.
At this time, a tricycle stopped in front of the few people, and the middle-aged man in the lead got on it directly.
Next came the old man and two students.
The old man had too much luggage, and although he was walking in front, his pace was definitely not as fast as the two students.
A very common car-stealing incident happened in front of the three people.
In the crowd, the old man's luggage scraped the girl's clothes, and she immediately shouted:
"Old man, you've soiled my clothes, can you afford to pay me back?"
The male student on the other side, who should be her boyfriend, saw that the girl was angry and immediately shouted at the old man:
"Why are you squeezing in? Have you never been on a bus before? You have so much stuff that you don't know how to wait for the next one? You have no manners at all."
“People without culture have no quality.”
After saying this, the male student pushed the old man.
In such rainy weather, you can imagine how embarrassing it would be to fall like this.
Fortunately, when the old man was about to fall, Xu Le pulled him up.
"Old man, stand still."
"Hey, thanks kid."
The old man touched his head and went to pick up the luggage that had fallen on the ground.
Xu Le grabbed the two students, pulled them down, and pushed the old man up.
"Goodbye, old man."
Wang Shu and Gu Beichen, who were standing by, had already quietly put the old man's luggage in the car.
They very much agreed with Xu Le's behavior, but they didn't say anything.
The two students looked at the trio in the rain. They seemed like they were not someone to be trifled with, so they suddenly became a little timid.
"What do you want to do? We are students from Beacon University."
Xu Le took a look at their school uniforms and school badges and nodded slightly:
"Yeah, me too."
"Ah? You, you too? Then you also..."
Xu Le shook his head and didn't hit anyone. He just straightened the school badge that the female student was wearing crookedly.
“We study to become lantern bearers, to illuminate the darkness of others, rather than to be complacent after having a lamp and blow out other people’s candles.”
The old man in the car, as well as the middle-aged man and the driver, all looked thoughtful when they heard this.
When the two students in front of him heard this, their expressions gradually became complicated.
Regret? Shame? Xu Le couldn't guess these.
After all, everyone's psychological fluctuations are different.
Xu Le didn't know whether he had done a good thing, but he knew one thing very well.
Do one good deed a day and you will avoid one disaster a month. This is the truth that good people will be rewarded.
What good news is that
Hey, they're already in the car.
Just when the two Lighthouse University students were in a daze, they got on the bus.
In the car, Wang Shu suddenly asked:
"So, this is your method of flanking a team?"
Xu Le shook his head slightly. He would definitely not admit the explanation of the team-squeezing tactic.
"I am educating two lost lambs and guiding them towards justice and light. How can I use such a despicable excuse as staking out a group?"
"Ha, we succeeded in cutting off the team!~" Gu Beichen raised his hands under the influence of alcohol.
Xu Le covered his face and said, "Oh, how shameful! There are so few people who understand me."
Sitting in the car, Wang Shu suddenly asked:
"Xu Le, it seems like someone was following us just now."
"Well, probably someone from the dark alley."
Xu Le nodded.
"You know?"
"Of course I know. My original intention of going to the black alley was to find what I wanted."
"What do you want? Isn't it the Sealed Relic?"
Xu Le's gaze gradually turned to the window and he smiled:
"Although I also want that Sealed Relic, to be precise, that's what the Captain wants."
"So what do you want?"
“I want to do good.”
Wang Shu:
Gu Beicheng:
When we returned to Area B, it was already time to get off work.
The three of them were all soaked, so they didn't go back to the branch. They decided to meet again tomorrow morning.
After a busy day, Xu Le returned home looking a little tired.
Although I really want to squat on the bed and study my electric element fruit, as well as the relationship between the ancient sound multi-element and the soul tree.
But his body was too dirty, so he decided to take a shower first.
"Ding Ke? Come here, let me hug you."
Xu Le wanted to pet the cat a few times, but before he could get close, Ding Ke looked at him with bared teeth and claws.
Meow meow meow!
That look seemed to say:
"You have another cat out there?"
