Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

"Joyce! Where's Joyce?"

"What does it look like? Mr. Planck will teach you a lesson when he sees it."

"I'm not worried about you!"

Charlie "broke" into the living room, looking at Joyce up and down with concerned eyes: "Aren't you hurt?"

"No." Joyce motioned for him to sit down first.

Charlie ignored it and said indignantly:

"Which **** dared to assassinate my brother!"

"You sit down first..." Joyce said helplessly:

"I was run away by that **** assassin. The Bayam Police Department is actively investigating."

Then Charlie sat on the sofa and laughed:

"That gang of policemen, forget it... Why not let MI9 investigate, cases involving nobles can be within their jurisdiction."

Just killed the major of MI9, and asked their people to investigate me. This is not a blow to the mountain, but a self-immolation... Joyce thought amusingly, and retorted him:

"It may not be. Besides, MI9 is ​​almost overwhelmed now. One of their majors died inexplicably on the same night that I was assassinated."

"It's such a coincidence, could it be done by the same group of people?" Charlie guessed curiously.

Joyce nodded in agreement and said, "I don't rule out this possibility, but it's not something I should worry about. The Bayam Police Department and MI9 will investigate clearly. I just need to ensure my own safety."

Charlie hesitated. He looked at Sophia behind him. Joyce turned his head and commanded, "Go out first."

After the maid went out, Charlie rarely said solemnly, "It's really worth paying more attention to."

"Recently, Rhosid's situation is not stable. It seems that the kingdom is going to make a big move... Also, Mr. William's sacrifice may have other hidden meanings."

Joyce was very entangled in his heart, thinking: I didn't see anyone reminding me when I was smeared, and when I figured out the cause of William's death, I would come after him!

He asked in confusion, "How could you have such news?"

Charlie said bitterly: "Recently, Planck always pulls me to handle a bunch of boring business affairs. It's hard not to know!"

This is a bit of Versailles... Joyce pondered: "I will strengthen my security force."

"Emperor Roselle said that it is better to ask for others than to ask for yourself." Charlie picked up a piece of cake and stuffed it into his mouth, muttering:

"Come on, you've become a Beyonder too. Look, I'm not living well now! Thomas always likes to exaggerate the facts..."

"Although my combat power hasn't improved much since I became a 'pharmacist', I can complete a short-term burst through the potion... By the way, the potions for you are still good."

It's all been used by Emily, how do I know... Joyce said, "It's very useful."

Then he responded to Charlie's previous words: "After being assassinated, becoming a Beyonder is a good choice, but as far as I know, finding the right potion formula and main ingredients is a matter of luck."

Charlie straightened his back and said proudly:

"Don't look at who I am!"

Joyce stared at him and said with a smile:

"What's your status, selling aphrodisiacs?"

Charlie rolled his eyes and emphasized:

"My teacher is a member of the School of Life, a kind and lawful secret organization with a long history. It is not easy to find formulas and materials!"

"Why, your teacher wants to take one more student?" Joyce asked curiously.

Charlie shook his finger at him and laughed, "You're not qualified enough."

Joyce said angrily:

"Then what else? Can you give me the materials I want?"

"Neither." Charlie shook his head, then added:

"Although I don't have the formula and materials, I have channels. This Thursday, the School of Life has an extraordinary party in Bayam, and I can take you to attend."

Joyce was overjoyed at first, but then frowned and asked:

"It's not appropriate for you to take me as an outsider to a party between members of a secret organization?"

Charlie waved his hand and said nonchalantly:

"It's not that they got together to plan some kind of conspiracy, it's just an ordinary Beyonder exchange gathering. You have needs, and more importantly, you have money. You are the kind of people who are popular wherever you go."

Joyce nodded secretly:

"It makes sense. It seems that I have no reason to refuse."

Then, when he saw Charlie come over, his eyes were eager, and he couldn't help being startled: "What do you want to do?"

"That...what...borrow some money." Charlie said hesitantly.

If you borrow money, you will borrow money, unless you make it gay... Joyce slandered and asked:

"How much to borrow, and what to borrow money for?"

Charlie hurriedly said: "Not much, just 300 pounds, my Sequence Nine potion is gone... Uh, I want to collect Sequence Eight materials in advance."

The main material of a single potion of Sequence Eight is about 300 to 400 pounds, but that is the normal price, and Beyonder materials are basically purchased at a premium... Joyce thought of this and asked:

"how much money you have?"

Charlie sighed and said, "Only five hundred pounds, and Planck took care of all my funds..."

"You deserve it, let you mess up." Joyce said after thinking for a while:

"Well, I'll lend you five hundred pounds, so you don't have any pocket money after buying the extraordinary materials."

Charlie stood up excitedly and wanted to hug Joyce, but was stopped by the latter: "I have conditions, you have to help me prepare another batch of potions, um, the potions in that area are not needed. UU reading www.uukanshu. com”

"No problem, wrap it on me." Charlie patted his chest and promised, agreed on the time to meet next time, and left happily.

……

"Why is Mr. Charlie mysterious?" Sophia asked curiously when she came in to pour tea.

"He's just like this..." Joyce was reading a book and replied casually, then raised his head suddenly and asked, "How is your potion getting used to?"

Speaking of this, Sophia was a little excited:

"I like the state of 'audience' more and more, as if I have the ability to read minds."

Then your feeling is quite accurate, the Sequence Eight of the audience pathway is called "Mind Reader"... Joyce nodded with satisfaction, and couldn't help but warned again:

"Still remember that sentence: don't indulge in the state of 'audience', you are Sophia first, and then 'audience'."

"Understood, Mr. Baron." Sophia replied.

Joyce took a sip of hot black tea, and then asked again like a small talk:

"What did Mr. Hunter do after he came back?"

The keen observation of the "audience" can help Sophia discover many details in life. She said:

"Mr. Hunter brought back a lot of unsmiling guards this time, and the atmosphere at home is much more serious..."

"Also, Mr. Hunter reprimanded Mr. Harry, and the latter didn't say a word..."

Because of the assassination, Harry is also very self-blaming. His mood has not been high these two days. Well, he was always serious... Listening to the nagging of the maid, Joyce felt a little calm, like a storm. The calm sea at intervals is like the brief tranquility between lightning and thunder.

It's just that the peace didn't last long.
