Boss? Lumian was startled when he heard that.
He hadn't thought that this matter would be connected with the boss Gardner Martin, but this seems to explain some problems:
Why did the smuggling caravan "evaporate" out of thin air on a hidden route that has been used many times?
Why is "Mouse" Christo so anxious to find himself and others for help? If he simply lost a batch of goods, he will definitely confirm repeatedly, and after a while, he will be willing to expose his weakness and mistakes to colleagues who may be watching his position.
In an instant, Lumian thought of more: "Boss Gardner Martin is suspected to be the Sequence 6 or Sequence 5 of the Hunter Path...."
Franka and I who also entered that special mirror world, one is a hunter and the other is a witch, are on the same and adjacent paths.
Mr. K asked me to approach Gardner Martin and gain his trust.
As a member of the secretive organization, the Curly-haired Baboon Research Society, Franke is willing to be the mistress of a gangster like Gardner Martin.
The boss of the Savoy Party really has a lot of secrets, or is involved in some big event.
The thing that the boss asked Christo to bring into Trier is related to the hunter or witch path?
Why risk going underground and be discovered by the tax collectors? Why doesn't the boss go out of the city to get it himself, and ask Crystal to send a smuggler to lead the way? It's safer and more hidden that way... He knows that something may cause accidents, and he doesn't want to take risks?
Lumian's eyes moved from Christopher the mouse to Franka's face.
The witch didn't seem to have expected to get such an answer, and she was also a little surprised and surprised, and then a little bit of excitement and joy emerged.
She stared at "Mouse" Crystal, and sneered: "You **** want to lie to me? Why didn't I know that Gardner asked you to get something into Trier?"
"What about that thing?"
Excitement...joy...Lumian became more and more sure that Franka's joining the Savoy Party and getting close to Gardner Martin's purpose was not pure.
Christo forced a smile: "It's packed in an iron box, and I've sent it to Spring Street."
The boss probably hasn't had time to tell you.
As a senior member of the Savoy Party, he knew that "Red Boots" Franka was powerful, and it would be an easy task to kill herself who was unprepared and without helpers. Moreover, she was also proficient in divination and could tell lies.
"You better not lie to me!"
Franka withdrew her body, took out the makeup mirror, and started divination in front of Crystal the mouse.
Lumian stood up very cooperatively, walked to Christo's side, and put his hand on his shoulder.
After Franka confirmed that what Christo said was true, Lumian patted the mouse with a smile: "If there are similar things, remember to remind me that there is a problem with the goods, and we need to be on guard against possible accidents." , otherwise, I will cut you into pieces and feed them to your dear little ones."
He had heard from Louis that Christopher the mouse kept many animals, but dogs were his favorite.
After a long silence, Franke looked at Lumian beside her, and sighed with a smile or not, "You are very good at deceiving others."
Lumian put on a calm posture: "In Kordu Village, you should know Kordu Village, right? I have a nickname of Prankster."
Franka, who has seen the arrest warrant, is no stranger to Kordu Village. She looked at Lumian with a smile and said, "Did the things you said before deceive me? Hehe, Jianna's evaluation of you is not completely wrong. Yes, cunning, treacherous."
"You are my sister's companion, and everything I tell you is the truth." Lumian said frankly.
He just didn't tell the whole truth. Even if Franka used divination to confirm it, she couldn't find any signs of him lying.
Franka observed his expression and nodded with satisfaction: "I am also willing to trust Muggle brothers."
"Well... you don't know about Gardner's existence. For some things, if you find out the truth, it will bring harm. I won't ask him."
"Okay." Lumian acted as obediently as he was in front of Aurora.
The two separated in the middle of Market Avenue, one went to Breeze Ballroom and the other turned to White Coat Street.
It was already past eight o'clock in the evening, and it was already dark. The gas wall lamps on the walls were lit in the dance hall, making the entire first floor immersed in a yellowish light, and the closer to the dance floor, the darker the environment .
In the sound of greetings from the boss, Lumian sat down at the bar counter and ordered a glass of anisette absinthe "Parrot" with mint.
This stuff is quite exciting, just taking a sip makes him feel clear, as if he was slapped in the face.
Lumian sat for a while, enjoying Jenna's dirty songs for a while, and then saw Charlie walking towards the bar with a tray.
"Charles, boss!" Charlie decisively changed his address when he noticed that the bartender was looking at him.
Lumian took a sip of the psychedelic green liquid and asked with a smile, "Do you prefer a dance hall or a speakeasy in a hotel?"
Charlie held back the bartender and glanced at the other waiters, and said in a low voice; "I still prefer the hotel bar. Where is it, I am the focus of everyone!"
feel it...
Lumian laughed, and pointed to the young female singer who took over Jenna with her chin: "Is she the daughter of your friend?"
"yes."
Charlie replied with a sad expression.
The female singer was also very flamboyantly dressed, wearing a rather revealing short top and skirt. She should be about the same age as Jenna, but her appearance is not as good.
According to Lumian's observation, the biggest difference between the two is that Jenna's eyes are always radiant, while this fake smile is a fake smile, with no bright eyes.
Charlie opened his mouth, hesitated to ask for something, but finally closed it again.
Lumian drank the "parrot" and listened to the singing, wondering what he was thinking.
Shortly before 10:30, he stood up and went back upstairs, where he changed into a linen coat, a well-worn jacket, brown trousers and a dark blue peaked cap.
It makes him look like a bum.
Immediately afterwards, Lumian pushed open the window and jumped into the alley behind the dance hall.
He was going to go around the old pigeon cage theater at this time.
Lumian never thought that he could solve the matter involving the evil **** of the Mother Tree of Desire by himself, and he didn't plan to confront those people head-on. What he hoped was to find more problems and collect useful information through observation.
For him, the most important thing is to use Mr. Eve and others to find the place where Suzanne Matisse lived before her death, and get something that she has carried for a long time, so as to exorcise ghosts when encountering the evil spirit attack later. The technique lays a solid foundation.
Although it may not be possible to complete the ritual magic by then, it is better to be prepared than never.
After going around half a circle, Lumian came to the outside of the old pigeon cage theater.
Because it was not yet 11 o'clock, he was not in a hurry to go in, but huddled in the corner outside, looking at the beige six-story apartment that Mr. Eve lived in like a real homeless man.
Not long after, Lumian saw the landlord.
Mr. Eve was wearing a dark suit and maroon trousers that had been washed to white, and an old half-top hat. He was holding a black cane. He came back from the direction of Candide Market and entered the apartment.
A few minutes later, the corresponding window in his room lit up, rather dimly.
Lumian waited patiently.
Waiting and waiting, he gradually frowned.
It's past 11 o'clock, why hasn't Mr. Eve come to the old pigeon coop?
The window still shone with a yellowish light, and people passed by from time to time.
After another quarter of an hour, Mr. Eve still did not leave the apartment building, crossed Market Avenue, and entered the Old Pigeonhouse Theatre.
Lumian couldn't help but muttered to himself silently: "Could it be mine, the technique of prophecy made a mistake?"
Christo, who was being threatened, felt annoyed in his heart: "Franka is the mistress of the boss, and she is stronger than me. I can accept that she treats me like this. Why are you **** a newcomer?"
Thinking of the wolf Maggot and Hammer Aite who were no weaker than him, Christo paused again, and smiled and said: "This time, the boss asked me to keep it a secret."
"You son of a bitch, at least give us a hint!" Franka put away the makeup box and cursed viciously.
Christo smiled tremblingly: "Okay, okay."
He was not angry at all because of being insulted. In his opinion, a dog is a family member and a close relative. How can it be regarded as a curse?
He often warns those perverts under his command: "Whoever touches my wife is like touching my dog!"
Seeing that both Franke and Charles had softened their attitudes, Christo asked curiously, "Is that strange world really the same as Erken described?"
Before Franka could answer, Lumian smiled and touched Christo's shoulder again: "Haven't you figured it out yet? Did a dog eat your brain? We were scamming you just now!"
We didn't enter any strange world at all, we just felt that it was impossible for so many smugglings to be successful, but this time we were suddenly involved in an extraordinary incident. There must be something wrong with your batch of goods, so we decided to scam you!
Mouse Christo showed an expression of frustration uncontrollably.
That's right, if Franka and Charles really entered that strange world, they wouldn't be able to come out so soon!
Erken and the others have been missing for several hours!
How can I be so stupid?
How did you get fooled like this?
Christo restrained his emotions, looked at Franka, and smiled flatteringly: "Don't tell the boss that I told you about the existence of that thing, he will be very dissatisfied with me."
Franka glanced at Lumian with a slightly strange expression, and said to the mouse Christo: "Yes, from now on, you owe me a favor."
"Okay!" Christo quickly agreed.
Saying goodbye to the smuggling leader, Lumian and Franka left the warehouse all the way and turned into the narrow street leading to Market Avenue.
"I just found out today that Christo is an idiot for being so easy to deceive."
