Chapter 102
[099-Humble and low-key bookstore owner]
Since everyone’s boss has said so, it is really no problem.
Lin Jie relaxed a little, and with a sigh of relief, he looked back and said, “It’s fine.”
Weird.
Claude is well aware that the problems of these three guys are of course very big…
Not to mention resting for a few months, maybe I won’t be able to have a normal mind in this life.
From the appearance alone, the two police officers who were knocked out by him may have maintained the fear from their hearts, and reduced most of their desires to the extent that they are close to none.
The Ryan family member, whom he remembered as Sand, was slightly better, but Claude wasn’t sure what part of him was drawn from.
This is also because he interrupted in time. If he is a little late, the three lying here are three walking dead.
The extraordinarily delicate-looking rose on the table was an extraordinary species named “Seed of Desire” domesticated by the ancient elf kingdom.
It has no fixed appearance, and can form a variety of plant forms according to the wishes of the grower.
But in essence, it is an extremely aggressive creature that feeds on desire, and because it has a level of intelligence close to that of a puppy, it is often used as a pet. Launch URL https://m.xswang.com
As the desire to devour increases, it gradually becomes stronger, and the lower limit and upper limit are related to the breeding lineage of the seed of desire.
For example, the flower in front of him must belong to a very high level of cultivation.
Claude himself does not know this ancient species, and apart from scholars who study this aspect, very few people can now know about these ancient species.
This was the important information that his teacher Joseph had specially ordered to him when he called him to visit.
In order to prevent him from accidentally offending the owner of the bookstore, or unfortunately accidentally hurt by some items in the bookstore, the former glorious knight was really heartbroken.
In fact, Claude did not become a victim, but became a witness.
When he learned that the highest police station in the Central District had decided to conduct a large-scale investigation, he felt a little stunned and rushed over, but he didn’t expect it to be too late.
The Mystery Tower did not set restrictions on this area, in order not to “disturb” the bookstore owner’s behavior pattern, so as not to make him feel dissatisfied.
According to a behavioral analysis by assessment expert Caroline, surveys in general don’t make bookstore owners emotional.
He has a pretty good temper.
However, Claude, who is in the system, knows what the highest police station is.
That’s right, in the world of superhumans, Claude is a panic-level knight of the Mystery Tower, Joseph’s disciple and assistant, and the deputy chief of the Intelligence Department.
In the world of ordinary people, his identity is a young talent and a well-known first-level police inspector who is reused by the highest police station in the central government.
Relying on the convenience of this identity, it is much more convenient for him to collect information for the Secret Ritual Tower.
Although I don’t know how these police officers offended the bookstore owner, but fortunately, the bookstore owner seems to just use them as recreational toys.
Just let the Seed of Desire devour their desire without causing any other harm.
Claude was alert again and sounded the alarm to himself.
Although the bookstore owner’s evaluation is friendly, but a god-level character can no longer speculate with human thoughts and morals.
One of his well-meaning jokes – like now, he seems to define his behavior as merely “scare them” – could have an indelible effect on the average person.
In the face of such existence, what they can do is very limited.
But as the knights of the Mystery Tower, this is their duty, even if it is limited, they have to do it, even if it is only a proper guide and dissuasion.
Claude looked at the owner of the bookstore and continued, “If they are rude, I apologize to you for them.”
Lin Jie waved his hand: “It’s not a big deal, they just cross-examined as usual, but my assistant’s ID card is still on the way, so they asked a few more questions.”
Claude turned his head to greet the silent girl who had been standing beside him, secretly remembering that there was an extra assistant in the bookstore.
As for the detailed inquiry…
The owner of the bookstore made it so clear that “the ID card is still on the way”, and made it clear that he did not want to inquire.
He didn’t want to repeat the mistakes of the three people on the ground.
Of course Lin Jie couldn’t do anything to Joseph’s disciple, who was a new potential customer.
However, Joseph’s disciple turned out to be the first-level police inspector of the Central Police Station, which surprised Lin Jie a little.
However, thinking about the long sword that Joseph gave him, he knew that he was definitely not an ordinary retired officer, and it would be very reasonable to have a disciple with a higher position.
Moen consciously picked up the boiled hot water and poured it on the two of them, and pushed one of the cups to Klein who sat down outside the counter.
Lin Jie saw it in his eyes and nodded, feeling that his assistant had not picked it up in vain.
Don’t have to do everything by yourself, and finally have the appearance of a decent boss.
Lin Jie took a sip of tea to suppress his shock, cleared his throat, and said, “Speaking of which, you came to me for something else, right? How has Joseph been recently? After he handed the sword to me that day, he seemed relieved. a lot of.”
Since he was a disciple of Joseph, and he reported to his family to say hello to him on behalf of his teacher, then generally speaking, he must have been sent by Joseph.
I don’t know why, but there is always a feeling of forcibly letting children come to recognize people during the New Year.
Claude took the cup, said thank you to Morn, then nodded, and said, “Teacher asked me to express my gratitude to you. He has been feeling better than ever recently, and he even has faint signs of breaking through himself.”
Lin Jie raised his eyebrows: “Congratulations, it’s really not easy to make breakthroughs at this age.”
I didn’t expect Uncle Joseph to see it so quickly. It’s really difficult to improve the mood without any experience. It seems that putting down this sword really made him realize it.
Claude immediately said: “Thanks to your help, Nuo Jin’s safety level has also improved a lot.”
Since the owner of the bookstore didn’t even show his figure that day, it should mean that he didn’t want others to know… Claude tentatively probed, but in fact he was already certain in his heart that he could be related to the ancient elf king after all. There is only the magic sword Candela that was handed over to Lin Jie by Joseph.
Lin Jie blinked, what does Nuo Jin’s safety level have to do with him?
Then he thought about it, Uncle Joseph used to be jealous of evil before, but now he has “greatly improved his skills” after his enlightenment, and he must be obliged to fight crime again.
But this time it should not be for responsibility, but for interest.
So he smiled and said, “Where, it’s Joseph who really contributed, I’m just giving a little guidance.”
really!
Claude got the answer without any suspense, and it was the bookstore owner who shot that day.
Using the magic sword handed over by Joseph as a spellcasting tool, he summoned an ancient heroic spirit and completed the feat of slaughtering gods, so it was Joseph who said the power.
The owner of the bookstore is really humble and low-key.
Claude sighed secretly in his heart, then took out a stack of thick paper documents from his arms and put them on the table, saying the main purpose of coming this time: “Last time you said the lost ancient language you wanted. The materials, the teacher personally sorted out from the database, but because the age is too long, the research progress of these documents is very slow, and there are not many reference materials, only some original texts of rubbings, I hope it can help you.”
