Mysteries: Arcana Wars

Chapter 351 Midnight Snack Chat

It was almost dawn when Derrick finished his work and returned home.

As a new dealer, Derrick's work is often trivial and numerous, commonly known as miscellaneous work. If the captain does not leave work, the newcomer has no reason to run away early.

Derrick's house wasn't big, but with only him and his brother, there was still plenty of space.

He sat on the sofa and took off his trousers. His legs were surrounded by a set of exquisite and simple exoskeleton. Thin and strong metal strips were running all over his legs. There was a layer of breathable thin fabric between the metal exoskeleton and the skin.

Wireless charging equipment is installed throughout the house, so Derrick doesn't need to take off his exoskeleton. He can charge his equipment just by walking into the wireless range.

Derrick walked to the bathroom, removed the exoskeleton from his legs, and then skillfully and carefully moved himself onto a small stool in the bathroom, then moved his two weak legs in.

Wearing these when taking a bath will make him feel weird that he can't get clean after a bath.

After a quick shower, Derrick reinstalled his leg exoskeletons, changed into some comfortable, soft pajamas, and walked out.

A scent wafted over, and Mrs. Grant had returned home and was busy in the kitchen.

"Good evening, Derrick." Mrs. Grant's tone was gentle and full of love. "It's been a hard day's work today."

Derrick chatted for a while, then sat on the sofa, turned on the TV, and started watching the news.

Mrs. Grant, the owner of this house, is also Derrick's nominal guardian and adopter, her adoptive mother.

If you ask the neighbors around, you will know that Mrs. Grant is a gentle and virtuous widow. After losing her husband, Mrs. Grant lived on the three houses left by her husband. However, these houses are not big, similar to the one Derrick lives in now, and they can't be rented out at a good price. Mrs. Grant also bakes some food and sells it in this building, and delivers it to the residents via drones, doing odd jobs to improve the quality of life.

This is indeed the case according to her citizenship record: she pays taxes on time and abides by the law.

But if you look through the materials in some secret archives that are not visible to the public, you can discover another unknown side of Mrs. Grant.

Not long after Mrs. Grant got married, her mother-in-law fell in love with this young and beautiful woman and wanted to have a deep and passionate love affair with her. As a husband who always supports his wife, her father-in-law fully supports any decision of his wife and said that as long as his wife is willing, he welcomes anyone to join this big family in any form.

But Mrs. Grant's husband, Mr. Grant, said no, because he did a divination that was very traditional in Bayam. After pickling the socks that his wife and his mother had worn for a week together for three days, Mr. Grant felt an ominous smell in the tjana shell of the pickled socks. He immediately said that if he enjoyed two mothers' love at once, his mothers' love would overflow, like a balloon that was used to too much water, and then explode.

Mrs. Grant couldn't stand such a family because in the month that the three of them talked, no one wanted to eat the creamy tropical fruit soup she made.

Finally, on the forty-second day that the cream fruit soup was ignored, Mrs. Grant could no longer bear it. She immediately took the elevator down to the basement garage, smashed a den of thieves who stole car batteries, found a machete that the thieves used to chop electric beef, and returned home to chop up the family of three who refused to eat the fruit.

Unexpectedly, before the blood flowed out of the door, the next second, the Roside special police rushed in. Looking at the scene in front of them, they applauded Mrs. Grant crazily and decided on the spot to award her a Good Citizen Medal to commend this good citizen for helping Bayam get rid of a scalper, Lao Deng, who stole electronic tributes and firecrackers from urns and towers with a total amount of tens of millions of dollars involved in the case, a bloody old Mary who killed people like to collect their dirty tricks, and a pyramid scheme leader who was good at brainwashing and hypnotizing others with socks that had been used for different numbers of days.

Under the strong recommendation of the special police force and the temptation of high salary, Mrs. Grant agreed to become an official secret killer and support the police in secret.

The bowl of cream fruit soup kept dying after dinner and coming back to life the next day. After 42 days of resurrection, the cream fruit soup reached the ultimate answer of the universe, was reborn, and completely got rid of the tragic fate of being eaten. It had the special ability to make people want to talk, and was placed in the interrogation room of a police station as a deterrent torture instrument.

If the person who is investigating this matter can be more capable, and directly break through all obstacles, get to the core of the contradiction, and see the blue sky through the clouds, then he will find that -

Mrs. Grant is the Seven of Hearts.

All of this is the background story of the Seven of Hearts.

However, Antigonus had promised the poker players an absurdly high degree of freedom, so he had to hold his tail and complete all the files and traces of Mrs. Grant.

From a legal perspective, Bayam only has the brave and warlike Mrs. Grant, and there is no so-called Seven of Hearts.

When Derrick was very young, the Seven of Hearts picked him up and made him his younger brother. Then they wandered around the city of Bayam together. Until the two were cheated of all their belongings by the previous Three of Diamonds, they had to join the organization and work as non-staff members under various threats, inducements and deceptions.

Before he became a regular employee, the Seven of Hearts was not called the Seven of Hearts. He had countless names, such as Sam, Peter, Papolla, Manucci, and Chenolo... He led Derrick to survive by stealing and cheating in the cracks of high-rise buildings. Every time he was caught, he would let Derrick run first, because this little brother was still a little honest compared to himself, and not as agile as himself, but the blood of giants was to run fast.

So the Red Seven, who is not yet the Red Seven, would put on an actor's self-cultivation in front of his victims. Every time he was caught, he would change his name, and then his background story, and a new look. At most, he would get a beating, but he would not become a habitual thief who would be remembered and attract the attention of surrounding targets and the police.

But if he is caught by the police, it will be a real hassle. The fierce police will definitely input his little face into the system and create a digital file. Then he will not be able to escape by changing his name. The name entered into the system will always follow him and become an indelible trace.

This made him feel terrified.

When she was a child, the Seven of Hearts was always thinking about how she could escape without leaving any identification information if she was caught by the police.

Unfortunately, before he was caught by the police, he was fooled by the previous Three of Diamonds.
