The Mysterious World Under Steampunk
Chapter 179: Marek's dilemma
"Marek?" Leo's mental net swept across the door, recognizing the knocker outside the door.
At this moment, Marek's image is not very good. I saw that his hair is much shorter than before. Although after some simple trimming, there are still many places where burn marks can be seen. In addition, one of his arms seemed to be interrupted, he was put on a stick, wrapped in gauze, and there were a few more scars on his face. One of the scars near his eyes was very close to his eyeballs. It may make him lose one eye.
Seeing the image of Marek, Leo hardly needs to think about it, and he can be sure that this injury should be related to the things in the root nest.
When he led Marek to the root nest and investigated the mysterious man, Leo Ben had already considered the conflict between the two, but he did not expect that the result of the conflict would be such that Marek would be so heavy. Injury, this actually surprised Leo.
"Leo, you have a guest." Javier, who also heard the knock on the door, noticed that Leo did not respond to the knock on the door, and reminded him.
"It's a friend downstairs." Leo stood up and prepared to go downstairs, but when he reached the staircase at the entrance of the Chamber of Secrets, he said to Javier again: "Here, you come together!"
"Me?" Jiwei Aier was stunned.
Leo explained, "The person who came is the chief of the security bureau in this city. If you can't leave here in a short time, it is best to meet him to help you live here."
Javier thought about it and thought that Leo made sense. According to past experience, her talents would take at least a month or two to recover and take her back to her own world. Time she must live in this weird world without sunlight. During this time, if the local people in charge take care of it, at least she will not always cause some inexplicable trouble like the world she has experienced in the past.
Thinking of this, Javier nodded at Leo, then sorted out the clothes and walked downstairs with Leo.
When the two came downstairs, Leo had just opened the door, and an impatient Marek rushed in from outside the door. He was about to ask Leo about something, but he saw a stranger on the side. Javier Aier, stopped when she reached her mouth.
With Marek’s vision and experience, it is not difficult to see that Javier is a powerful warrior. If it is normal, he may not be so sensitive, but at this moment, especially after discovering things in the root nest, He also became extremely cautious, and any strange warrior would be included in his doubts.
Leo easily guessed Marek's thoughts from Marek's obvious expression, so before Marek asked, he took the initiative to introduce: "This is Miss Javier, a friend of mine, As you can see, she is also an outstanding warrior. She has studied with the night watchman for a period of time, so she also knows some ways to hunt monsters." Then, he introduced to Javier again: "This is the Guard Secretary Marek, when you live here, if you have any trouble, you can go to him."
"Hello." Marek was not very good at meeting people. After listening to Leo's introduction, he just nodded to Javier Aier and said hello.
And Ji Wei'er was very cold when she saw the other party, and was not interested in actively communicating with it, so she just nodded, even if she knew each other.
Leo didn't say anything at all, so he opened his body, ushered Marek into the house, and took it to the small restaurant next to the main entrance. He warmed up a pot of fruit tea and poured a cup for each of them. , And then toward Marek, who had already shown a clearly impatient expression, asked, "What are you doing with me?"
"I..." Marek just wanted to speak, but stopped suddenly. His eyes were very obvious. He gestured towards Jiwei Aier, who was drinking tea elegantly. Avoid it.
It’s just that Leo did not follow Marek’s wish to take Javier away, but toward Marek, said: “If you’re going to talk about the root nest, I want Javier It may be better for Miss to listen here. Miss Javier has rich experience in hunting monsters, and may be of some help to you."
Hearing Leo say this, Marek looked at Javier, who was not planning to leave, and hesitated a little. He still defaulted on Leo’s proposal and entered the topic: "Mr. Leo, are you one? I knew from the beginning that Wumin's chaos would have a base under the root nest?"
"I don't know." Leo quickly gave the answer and actively explained: "The Nowitzki family has offered a big reward for catching the killer who killed their family heir. There is a reward in it. I needed something, so I entrusted Witzmir to take over the reward, and used some of my relationships here to find the murderer who made the murder on Baiwu Street."
"No wonder the people of the Novisky family will also be there." Marek said silently, and then asked: "If that person is really a murderer, how can you get a reward if you are caught by me?"
Leo said in a half-truth: "Actually, I had a confrontation with the man in the flower shop in the 27th district, but the man's strength was a bit unexpected, and the surrounding environment was not suitable for a big shot , So I had to watch him leave. But then, the current heir of the Nowitzki family asked Witzmir to talk to me, saying that I only need to provide the location of the person to get what I want, As for catching that person, I don’t need to do it, so your question is not a problem at all."
Marek was still a little puzzled and continued to ask: "If that is the case, why did you tell me the news again?"
"Because I was worried that the people of the Nowitzki family would not be able to catch that person, I sent the news to you too," Leo said, and then looked at Marek very obviously. : "But it seems that even if you shot,..."
Marek's face became a little ugly, and he said: "The man had been caught, but there was an accident that suddenly appeared nearby, causing some confusion and allowing him to escape."
Although Marek said it very simply, Leo was able to feel that the situation at that time was probably not simple at all, and that the person should not only escape, but also caused some casualties. Those who died were very likely to be People of the Nowitzki family.
Leo also guessed that Marek came here today, I am afraid that he could not stand the pressure of the second family in the seventh lake town, and began to take the initiative to ask his outsider for help.
Sure enough, after Marek explained the situation of the day, he directly said: "I want to ask you to do me a favor."
"Sorry, the waste capital entrance is about to appear, and I'm not going to take a break at this time." Leo refused to give Marek a chance, and refused Marek's request without hesitation.
Seeing Leo refused, Marek's face was a little ugly, but his character did not allow him to whisper another person's request, so he didn't say much in the end, and he stood up and prepared to leave.
But at this time, Leo turned around and suggested, "However, I can recommend a person who should be able to help you."
"Recommend a person?" Marek froze for a moment, and then realized who Leo was referring to. He couldn't help frowning, confirming: "The person you're talking about won't be the lady Javier. ?"
Hearing the obvious doubt in Leo's tone, Javier could not help but raised her eyebrows, showing an unpleasant look on her face, put down the cup in her hand, and said coldly, "Why? You think I'm inappropriate. "Looking, she pointed to the long sword behind her back and said: "Seeing this, there are at least hundreds of monsters dying under this sword."
"The record is not spoken by mouth." Marek responded coldly.
"Then let's try it!" Javier stood up, walked out of the small restaurant, and went to the street outside.
Being provoked by a woman made Marek a little unhappy. He looked at Leo and said, "Don't you say anything?"
Leo said with a smile: "I also agree with what you said, the record is not spoken."
Marek no longer said much, stood up, walked outside, and said without looking back: "Mr. Leo, I hope you have enough medicine here."
Leo replied: "Relax, the medicine for you must be enough."
Having said that, he had no intention of getting up at all, nor did he use Spirit Net to check the situation outside. Instead, he casually carried a tea cup and drank the fruit tea inside, as if the on-site competition outside did not exist at all.
The competition outside was soon over. Only a few Marek’s calls were heard inside the house, not even the metallic sound of the weapon’s impact, and then Marek was seen gloomyly pushing open the door and walking away from the house. Come in, and Javier, who is behind him, appears calm, as if doing a trivial thing.
"You didn't tell me that she is a wizard!" Marek asked directly when he came to Leo.
Leo retorted: "I don't think your enemies will tell you what their abilities are, and the stronger her strength is, the more helpful it is to you?"
Marek heard the words and then thought about it. As Leo said, if Jiwei Aier had helped before, he would not be so embarrassed, so his face was a little more beautiful.
"What are your conditions?" Marek asked Javier at the moment.
Jiwei Aier was stunned and looked at Leo. Leo said she made the decision herself, so she thought about it and said, "I might live here for a while, and I hope there won't be anything during this time. Trouble find me."
"It's okay." Marek thought for a while and said, "I'll arrange a consultant position for you at the Security Bureau. You can come to the Security Bureau tomorrow to fill out the identity form!"
"But I don't have an identity." Javier said again.
"No identity?" Some sensitive Marek froze for a moment, a little suspicion appeared on his face, and looked at Javier with a scrutiny, then looked at Leo again.
Leo said calmly: "I said that before, she used to study with the night watchman."
Hearing Leo’s vague answer, Marek naturally thought in the direction Leo hoped, plus the strength that Javier had shown and what he said, making him mistaken Jiwei Aier used to live outside the city before, hunting the mist monsters with the night watchman.
So, he looked at Javier's eyes with more respect, and then said sincerely: "I will give you your identity, and I will do it." Then he turned his head again. Zhao Leiou said, "In addition, I hope Mr. Leo can continue to help me find out where that person is hiding."
"I can only say that I try my best. After all, that person has been alarmed and will only hide more secretly. It is impossible to find it as easily as before." Leo shook his head slightly and suggested: "I give Your suggestion, you'd better work with the current heir of the Nowitzki family. I believe he wants to find that person more than you, so he will do his best."
Marek frowned, somewhat disapproved of the proposal, and casually said, "I will consider it."
After he finished speaking, he stood up and walked out. When he reached the door, he did not forget to remind Javier to go to the Security Bureau tomorrow.
After Marek left, Javier could not help but ask Leo: "Is it a bit too hasty for me to go to the Guard?"
Leo explained: "I will go to a place in a few days, and I don’t know if I can come back. This room belongs to someone else. After I leave, you will definitely not be able to live here again. Now Marek just can give You arrange a formal identity and have a job, at least you don’t need to worry about life before you leave."
"Is the place you are going to be dangerous?" Javier Aile apparently misunderstood Leo and said, "I can help you."
"No need!" Leo smiled and refused Javier's kindness, saying: "I don't necessarily encounter danger in the places I go to, and there are many people there. There are restrictions on places. I can't take another person. Go in."
See Leo say this~www.readwn.com~ Javier did not say anything, and signaled Leo had difficulty. Despite opening, he got up and returned to the upper chamber to continue to be familiar with the mechanical knowledge he had learned before.
Leo packed the tea set on the table and was ready to go upstairs, but at this moment, the door that had not been closed heard a knock on the door, and then saw Witzmir standing by the door and carefully pushed the door open , Put his head inside and watch, just to see Leo coming out of the small restaurant.
But after seeing Leo, Witzmir suddenly asked him, "What are you going to do about this?"
"What's the matter?" Leo frowned, looking puzzled at Witzmir standing at the door, unwilling to come in.
"It was Peter Alcott's business?" Witzmir was also puzzled, but after seeing the look on Leo's face, he immediately thought of something and said, "So you don't know yet! Peter Orr!" Kurt died of illness in two days."
"What did you say?" Leo was stunned when he heard the unexpected news, confirming in surprise: "Is the member of the Alcott family who died two days ago is Peter Alcott?"
