"good news!"
Jason said without hesitation.
While listening to the bad news first, and then the good news, helps to distract from the bad news and provide some comfort, the good news also makes people less happy.
Jason hated feeling like this.
Since you are happy, then be completely happy.
And the bad news
That's for later.
"Your Excellency, Mr. Jason, is very satisfied with you."
"Whether it's before or just now, I'm very satisfied."
"So, you got a raise."
"2 gold grams a week, and that's your previous employment fee and first week's salary."
As Bundy said, he took out 4 gold grams and 6 silver grams from his wallet.
Excluding this week's salary, the remaining 2 gold grams and 6 silver grams are commissions for hiring the 'Night Watchman' to solve this trouble.
"very nice."
As Jason said, he carefully counted and put it into his wallet.
While spices can be reimbursed as a necessity, some items are not.
For example: three normal meals.
According to the price of 'Yanan Restaurant', Jason can deduce what the price will be for a restaurant that really has specialty dishes.
And with his appetite, if he eats freely... Well, forget it, he's 70% full and healthy.
"besides… "
"It will be your sidearm."
"It's legal and documented."
"Of course, the spent ammunition can also be reimbursed."
Bundy pointed to the 'Winchester Brothers'.
Jason's mouth curled up.
Compared with the pistols of this era, shotguns are undoubtedly his favorite, especially the unique sound when the 'Winchester Brothers' are loaded and the trigger is pulled, which fascinates him even more.
"anything else?"
Jason looked forward to looking at Bundy, hoping for something good.
Unfortunately, the sheriff shook his head.
"Next comes the bad news."
As Bondi spoke, his face became serious. After a slight pause, he said in a low voice: "The person guarding the 'Moon Mask' club is missing."
"What?!"
Jason immediately sat up straight and gripped the shotgun in his hand.
"Because of the fighting in the afternoon, I transferred Hall and the two young men back, leaving only four young men guarding there."
"And just when Hall brought people back, he found that there was no one there."
"The four people are not in their respective positions. Hall rearranged the staff and then came back to report to me."
Bundy talked about the details.
Then, he looked at Jason.
Faced with that weird situation, Bundy knew he was an outsider, so he wanted expert advice.
"Go to the 'Moon Mask' club!"
Jason stood up with the gun in his hand, and walked out without stopping.
The change in the 'Moon Mask' club made Jason feel extremely heavy.
In fact, according to Jason's plan, he would not touch the 'Moon Mask' club at all until his [Protection from Evil] hadn't been raised to the level of weirdness that could deal with explosives.
but…
Plans never change quickly.
"Is it the passage of time, allowing enough power to be accumulated there, that the changes take place?"
"still… "
"Because of Kurtz in the afternoon?"
Jason thought as he walked.
When he walked out of the gate of the police dormitory, he saw Hall and Finch at a glance.
The two led two teams each, and more than 20 police officers stood in front of the carriage and waited.
"Sir!"
"Your Excellency Jason!"
Seeing Bundy and Jason coming out, they saluted together with the rest.
Then, prepare to take two carriages to the 'Moon Mask' club.
And just as he was getting into the car, Jason suddenly thought of something.
"Finch, bring the soup made in my room... the holy water in a leather bag."
Jason ordered.
"clear!"
The young police officer immediately responded and ran straight back to the police dormitory.
Jason and Bundy boarded the first carriage and waited quietly.
The two sat facing each other.
Seeing Jason sitting opposite him with a calm face, the sheriff who had endured it for a long time finally couldn't help but asked:
"Aren't you curious?"
With that said, the sheriff looked at Jason.
He expected to see something on Jason's face.
Unfortunately, Jason still had a calm expression on his face.
"Don't you wonder why Kurtz became 'The Avenger'?"
"Aren't you curious about the relationship between Kurtz and Karina?"
"Don't you wonder how Kurtz has such ability?"
Bundy asked continuously.
"Kurz became an 'Avenger' because of Kaelina."
"He and Karina should have known each other a long time ago, and they should have been lovers. Even, it was because Kurtz came to Lord to become a police officer that Karina also chose to come to Lord."
"In Lord, the probability of ordinary people encountering the 'mysterious side' is very small, but it is not impossible. Kurtz's talent has attracted the attention of a certain mysterious side, so he was accepted as a disciple, and then, he obtained such Ability."
Jason answered one by one.
Hearing the answer here, Bundy was surprised.
If it wasn't for the certainty that the investigation report just handed over to him could not have been passed on to someone else, Bundy would have thought that Jason had just peeked at it.
Could it be...
"Did you use 'divination' to know the answer?"
Bundy couldn't help but asked.
"I'm not good at divination."
Jason spoke in a matter-of-fact manner, and then, without waiting for Bondi to ask again, he said directly: "Kelina is an admirable girl, brave, tenacious, and not vain, if there is no reason for such a person If so, I believe she will basically not leave her hometown."
"And I can't think of any other reason for a young girl to leave her hometown, except for love."
"Love, a terrible thing."
"As for 'The Avengers'?"
"We've talked enough."
Jason adjusted his posture while talking, and just when Bundy thought Jason had finished speaking and was about to close his eyes and rest, Jason suddenly spoke.
"What are the chances of an ordinary person encountering a 'mysterious side person'?"
"Exactly, this ordinary person still has considerable talent, what are the chances of this?"
"It's even more coincidental that this ordinary person's lover died unexpectedly, filling him with hatred, so... what are the chances of this?"
A series of questions made Bundy's face change continuously.
"You mean?"
"Someone..."
"Manipulating all this?"
Bundy's voice was once again audible only to the two of them.
"There is no good for no reason in the world, and there is no bad for no reason."
"Those seeming gifts of fate?"
"In fact, the price has already been secretly marked."
Said Jason closed his eyes.
He thought of himself again.
Has his series of opportunities... already been priced
Jason didn't know about this.
All he knew was that he was treated as a pawn.
He also wants to live.
Moreover, to live well enough and long enough.
because…
Only in this way can he have a chance to jump out of the chessboard!
At this moment, he will face another crisis.
A scene that was several times more dangerous than the one in the afternoon!
Thinking of this, Jason suddenly opened his eyes.
"Bundy, I need something to increase our odds."
Jason said to the sheriff.
"what?"
"I'll do my best to help you get it."
Bondi first glanced at Jason. When he saw Jason's serious expression, the sheriff couldn't help but feel a little hesitation in his voice, because he was very worried that Jason's cold humor would strike again at this time. , Ask him for potatoes, radishes, onions, etc.
Fortunately, this time Jason made a fairly normal request—
"kerosene!"
"Dynamite!"
"artillery!"
