They all call me master
Chapter 235 There were loud gunshots at Bernice Manor in the early morning!
In the early morning, Kirk Street still maintains its due tranquility and vitality due to the efforts of the countess's guard.
The newsboy's shout is like an alarm clock that wakes the family up from their sleep. The mothers begin to prepare breakfast, and the fathers habitually go out to buy newspapers.
Neighbors who know each other well greet each other in the yard.
When old Charlie was around, he always greeted the neighbors with a warm smile.
It's the same thing when it's Arthur - except that as Arthur's reputation has risen in the past half month, the neighbors' smiles when they see Arthur always have a hint of stiffness.
And, will quickly return to the house in various ways and under various excuses.
This morning is no exception——
"morning!"
"B-morning, sorry, I need to use the bathroom!"
Arthur waved to his next door neighbor, Mr. Duer. Mr. Duer, who was said to be working in a trading company and was a middle-level leader, stammered in response, turned around and ran towards the room. ——You must know that Mr. Duer has a talkative physique. In Arthur's memory, every time he met old Charlie, he would chat with him for ten minutes or even longer.
Not like now.
'Alas, time is gone forever...'
Arthur sighed and looked at Mr. Bernice, his butler, and three bodyguards who were walking to the door.
"morning!"
Arthur smiled and said to Bernice.
This big businessman will not run away like Mr. Duer.
On the contrary, the big businessman smiled and said——
"Did you foresee my arrival?
Mr. Kratos' ability really impresses me! "
Different from the previous caution and caution.
After yesterday's experience, this big businessman was obviously much more enthusiastic.
Of course, the more important reason is that the other party has something to ask for.
Arthur knew this very well.
"If the habit of reading early can be called 'prediction', then there will definitely be thousands of 'prophet' in South Los Angeles."
Arthur joked, waved to the newsboy, and after paying the money, invited Bernice into No. 2 Kirk Street.
Among the three bodyguards, only one came in carrying a huge box, and the remaining two stood guard outside the door. Even this bodyguard did not actually enter the psychic medium's hall, but just put the box down. , and walked respectfully outside the door. There were only Arthur, Bernice and the other party's butler in the small hall.
"This is the reward agreed yesterday - 20,000 gold coins!"
Bernice said, pointing to the box.
Then, he took out a small black velvet bag from his arms, which contained a ruby the size of a thumb. The big businessman pushed the ruby and the small black velvet bag in front of Arthur.
"This is my extra thank you to you, and I hope you can understand the difficulties of a father."
As he spoke, the big businessman looked at Arthur with pleading in his eyes.
Arthur glanced at the ruby calmly, and was once again amazed by the wealth of this big businessman - you know, this size, this brightness, the value of this ruby is definitely no less than that box of gold coins.
The initial purchase price was 40,000 gold coins, which was far more than the wealth that Haite had carefully planned and carefully accumulated for half his life.
This is not because Hayter doesn’t work hard enough, but because Bernice’s industry is too special.
'Pressing boats, land... what a fortune!
Really captured the times! ’
Arthur smiled and nodded.
"understand!"
"That's good! That's good!"
The big businessman repeated this. When he said the second sentence, his tone of voice was uncontrollably rising, with a little bit of relaxation. After that, the big businessman even more assured.
“I will definitely discipline Edith!
She will never let her step out of the Bernice Manor again! "
"That would be perfect!"
Arthur's smile remained the same, but deep down he was sneering.
Not taking a step outside the Bernice Manor?
He would never believe such words.
In the beginning, maybe it will be like this.
And after that?
As time goes by, such bans will inevitably become ineffective.
Yesterday, Arthur decided not to let Edith live - with this woman's twisted character, coupled with the wealth of the Bernice family, Arthur felt that he could not sleep well as long as she was alive.
Not to mention the secret technique of controlling pigeons with one hand.
The 'Pigeon Keeper' has only learned some basics from the other party, and has not yet touched on the 'mysterious side', while Edith's control has already been initially exposed to the 'mysterious side'.
Whether you are self-taught inadvertently or taught by someone, this means that the other party is more threatening, and this level of threat is no longer about not sleeping well, but making the food lose its taste.
So, just now, Wuni set off with the 'gift'.
At this time, the Bernice family manor was already seen in the distance.
At the same time, he also relied on his almost extraordinary eyesight to see a person.
An acquaintance!
Er, Camille’s old housekeeper!
At this moment, Er took off his butler's uniform. He was wearing a coarse gray-brown dress. He was also covered with withered branches and leaves. His whole body was smeared with mud, especially his gray hair, which was tightly covered. He was crawling in Bernice Manor. On the hill outside, he held a blunderbuss with an extremely long barrel in his hand, and the muzzle was pointed at an area of Bernice Manor.
There is……
Edith's bedroom!
When Arthur confirmed the room with Wu Ni's vision, the old butler pulled the trigger.
boom!
An obviously specially made projectile flew out of the muzzle, and after passing a distance of 300 meters, it hit the target steadily.
The head of Edith, the daughter of the Bernice family, was like a watermelon falling from a height, smashing into pieces.
The sound of the body falling to the ground alerted other people in the manor, and two mysterious people who were obviously not ordinary people rushed into Edith's bedroom.
Then they rushed towards the hill where the old housekeeper Er was.
The old housekeeper Er lay there motionless.
It wasn't until the two men reached less than 50 meters away from them that they suddenly pulled the mechanism they had set up last night.
boom!
Explosives roared and fireballs rolled.
The two mysterious people were immediately shattered to pieces.
Looking at this scene, the old butler Er didn't feel any excitement. He regarded it as normal. He first slowly retreated to a safe enough position, and then stood up with the special-shaped gun.
I waited quietly for 10 minutes, with obvious disappointment flashing in my eyes.
"Bernice...you are getting old too."
As the old housekeeper said this, he raised his head and looked at the crow holding the explosives. After showing a warm smile, he bowed down and saluted in a standard manner.
Then, the whole person ducked into the forest next to him, and became completely invisible, as if he was invisible.
Arthur, who watched this scene with the help of Wu Ni's vision, sighed in his heart.
Sharpshooter!
A true sharpshooter!
Arthur knew that it was definitely not easy for Ms. Camille to have the current family fortune, but he never thought that the other party's housekeeper would be a sharpshooter, and the few who were with this sharpshooter...
‘Tsk, my grandpa, you have provoked an incredible lady!
But if you can cover it up and provoke all these ladies, can I just lie down?
Can I even write a book in my later years, "I relied on my grandfather's powerful ability to spend a long and wealthy life leisurely"? ’
Arthur couldn't help but fantasize in his heart.
As for Wuni being discovered by the other party?
Never underestimate a sharpshooter's eye, just as you don't underestimate their instincts.
Arthur even felt that Wu Ni was able to find the other party because the old housekeeper did it deliberately, and the other party was showing goodwill.
After all, the other party must know the relationship between old Charlie and Ms. Camille, and on this basis, the fact that old Charlie is still alive is enough to show that the old housekeeper recognizes old Charlie.
'But, how did my grandfather get the recognition of a sharpshooter? Well, it can't be...'
For some reason, Arthur subconsciously thought of the firecrackers in his arsenal.
Suddenly, the heart of the young 'psychic medium' skipped two beats
Moreover, the young 'spiritual medium' did not hide his strangeness at the moment. The big businessman Bernice immediately noticed the strangeness. Before the other party asked, the young 'spiritual medium''s face changed -
"not good!"
