"What, she didn't check in?!"
It was a satellite video communication … On the screen, Peter Chan was sweating profusely and didn't dare to look straight at her … He was in his thirties, so he naturally wouldn't be afraid of a girl in her early twenties.
However, the person in front of him was a witch who dared to directly fire the president of a branch company in Fog City. He really couldn't help but be careful.
"Miss Ying, to be exact, the lady you mentioned didn't go to the room we arranged, but stayed in Master Qiu's suite …"
"What! You let her go to the hotel? Didn't I say there was a 'traffic jam' first?! "
Peter Chan wiped his sweat with a handkerchief, "Miss … that lady got in the car with Master Qiu, we couldn't block it …"
"Incompetent!"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Peter Chan was even more panicked. He was afraid that his position as the manager of the Operation Department would come to an end.
Unexpectedly, Miss Ying on the other side of the earth sighed and waved her hand, "Forget it, you've worked hard today. Take half a day off next week as compensation for today."
Peter Chan was dumbfounded. He didn't expect to have half a day off after messing up. He was overjoyed on the spot, "Thank you, Miss Ying!"
"Humph, I was going to give you a week's paid leave if this matter could be done well. Now it's gone, and you won't have this opportunity in the future."
"Thank … Thank you, Miss Ying." He didn't know whether to laugh or cry — of course, his expression was more bitter.
As soon as the video communication ended, Miss Ying on the other side of the earth suddenly leaned back. The chair was pressed so hard that it seemed to be about to break. She muttered, "I didn't know … it's really the Song family's genes."
Whether it was her uncle Song Haoran, who was like a b * tch, or her grandfather whom she respected and loved, they had never been afraid of women's charms. She grew up in a family that relied entirely on illegal activities, so it was common for her to see such things.
But except for her grandmother who had passed away, her grandfather had never intended to make the women around him his wife. As for Song Haoran, he had no intention of getting married either …
Why am I thinking about this???
…
…
It was a rare Qingtian afternoon in Fog City. In front of an old five-story building on the banks of the River Thames, a Beetle with a high quality of life slowly stopped.
After that, two elegant men in suits and leather shoes got out of the car. One of them was slightly older, about thirty-five years old, and was very capable.
The other one was obviously much younger. He looked like a young man in his early twenties. He had blonde hair, looked young and energetic, and held a long object wrapped in brown cloth in his hand.
At the top of the stairs, there was already a black man in a black windbreaker with an eyepatch over his left eye waiting in front of the door of the small building.
The older gentleman smiled and greeted the one-eyed black man. "Nick, you should change the color of your eye mask."
The one-eyed black man … Nick was obviously someone who did not like to smile. At this moment, his remaining eye was looking straight ahead as he said indifferently, "Gareth, the master and mistress of this house are currently out. You have at most half an hour to exorcise the evil spirit from the woman of this house."
"Only half an hour?" The energetic young man next to the middle-aged gentleman was stunned.
The black man, Nick, said slowly, "Because I need at least fifteen minutes to deal with the aftermath. In addition, I can't guarantee whether the master and mistress of this house will come back early."
"OK." Gareth patted Nick's shoulder gently. "Relax, friend. I'll finish before the time comes … Are you really not going to consider changing a new eyepatch? I always feel that you're like the one in the movies. "
Nick directly opened the door behind him.
Gareth shrugged and smiled as he walked into the house with the young man who followed him … Nick only closed the door after the two entered.
The Knights of the Round Table was one of the oldest organizations in the land of Britain. Since its establishment, it had been guarding the peace of this land … from the war of the past to the exorcism of the present.
To this day, it had even faded from the sight of humans. Only a very small number of people knew that this mechanism still existed and was still operating.
"Gareth of the Twelve Knights actually brought a newcomer out for a mission this time … It seems that it's time for the trial for the vacant seat again."
Nick leaned against the door and thought to himself. Every five years, there would be a group of outstanding young people coming from all over the country to obtain the inheritance of one of the Twelve Knights, the name of [Ector] that had been left vacant until now.
…
"Klein, do you know the reason for the birth of evil spirits?"
On the wooden corridor, the man who had given up his original name and now inherited the name of Gareth suddenly turned around and asked.
The young man named Klein quickly said, "All hatred, jealousy, and evil thoughts will remain in the form of evil thoughts if they can't find peace after the death of a person. They will grow by constantly devouring other evil thoughts and eventually become evil spirits. In addition, if evil spirits are left alone, they will continue to devour human lives and eventually become terrible evil spirits. "
"Well said, you've memorized well." Gareth smiled slightly. "But there are some things that aren't taught in the books."
"What are they?" The young Klein quickly asked.
Gareth looked at the end of the corridor and said casually, "If humans are willing to degrade themselves, they can also become evil spirits … Hmm, I got it."
Gareth stopped at the handrail at the end of the corridor and looked at the pillar of the handrail. "Did you bring the Magic Revealing Powder, Klein?"
"Yes!"
Klein quickly took out a box the size of a mirror box and opened it very carefully. Then, he sprinkled some green powder on the pillar.
A blood-red circle that looked as if it was still dripping with blood and was evil, with a pentagram as the foundation, slowly emerged.
Klein was quite surprised. "Mr. Gareth … This is a magic circle?"
"To be exact, it's a type of witchcraft ritual and a structure that is commonly used by a branch of the Sea of Love Witches." Gareth spoke very carefully as if he was teaching. "This branch of witches is better at using drugs and mental witchcraft. In addition, it's also one of the few types of witches that doesn't prohibit contact with humans."
"Could it be that the woman of the master of this house is a branch of the Sea of Love Witches?"
Gareth said, "Not necessarily. It's also possible that she accidentally got a handwritten copy of their witchcraft that was left outside. Due to mistakes and improper learning, she embarked on the path of evil … The witchcraft of this branch of witches should basically be in the healing aspect, unlike this one, which is full of evil energy."
"Oh … Mr. Gareth, you're really knowledgeable," Klein said respectfully. He was Gareth's knight servant. Even for such a position, he had to go through many tests before he could win it. Obviously, he cherished this opportunity very much and was fortunate enough to be recommended by Gareth to participate in the inheritance trial of [Ector] soon.
Gareth shook his head and smiled. "I'm not knowledgeable. It's just that I've suffered enough in the past. About the Sea of Love Witches, it was one of my seniors who told me. "
"To be able to become Mr. Gareth's senior, he must be a righteous, kind, and powerful great knight." Klein was fascinated.
"He's powerful, he's really powerful. Perhaps he's also kind … but he's not necessarily righteous." Gareth shook his head. "This senior has been stripped of his title as a knight twenty years ago."
"How could that be?!" Klein was suddenly shocked, even more shocked than when he discovered the witchcraft on the pillar. To be stripped of his title as a knight by a mechanism, what kind of crime did he commit?
"If you also have a daughter who's in love with a vampire …" Gareth sighed slowly. He seemed to want to say something, but his eyes suddenly became sharp, as sharp as an eagle's.
Klein noticed Gareth's change in an instant, but he didn't have time to react. He only saw Gareth's arm waving at an incredible speed … a speed that exceeded the limits of the human body.
Something had been cut apart by Gareth's swing and landed on the floor … It was something that resembled mud, something that resembled a viscous creature. After it had been cut apart and landed on the floor, it immediately lost its vitality and turned into a pile of black powder.
"Klein." Gareth suddenly stepped aside and said coldly, "I'll leave this task to you. I haven't checked your progress in today's swordsmanship lesson."
Klein knew that this was Mr. Gareth's test for him. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded resolutely. He untied the brown cloth on the long object in his hand.
It was a one-handed cross longsword.
Klein took a deep breath and walked along the corridor at the end of the corridor. He had actually experienced a few actual battles, but he was always assisting on the side. This was the first time he was dealing with it alone. Of course, such an actual battle would come sooner or later. He just didn't expect it to be so soon.
I must not disappoint Mr. Gareth … Klein was firm in his belief.
"Klein, come on! Klein, you're great! Klein, come on!! "
Behind him, the elegant Knight Gareth suddenly put on a fake nose that he pulled out from somewhere. He put his hands on his hips and lifted his legs to dance.
"Mr. Gareth, you're one of the Twelve Knights of the Round Table, the great [Gareth]! Please stop your indecent behavior!! You're disturbing me! "
"Ah, it's rare for me to find a new type of fake nose …" Gareth sighed in disappointment. Then, he said very softly, "Klein, come on … Klein, come on ~ ~"
Klein sighed heavily. There was no doubt that he respected this knight from the bottom of his heart. If it wasn't for his true personality that would go off the rails from time to time, perhaps he would be even more perfect.
Tidying up his mood, the young trainee knight once again approached the room at the end of the corridor. He only felt a cold chill that began to invade his body little by little. However, the strong physique that he had trained for many years was still able to resist this chill.
Finally, the door of the room at the end of the corridor slammed open. An even colder airflow blew out from the room. It was actually a strong wind.
At the same time, a burst of terrifying and sharp laughter sounded at this time.
Klein moved against the wind. He infused the sword energy that he had trained through the ancient method into the steel sword in his hand. This slender cross sword suddenly emitted a weak green light and broke through the strong wind.
Klein shouted loudly. He raised the cross sword in his hand and suddenly rushed into the room. Only the sound of smashing could be heard from the room.
After a moment, a figure rolled out of the room. Klein's left eye had become red and swollen.
He quickly stood up, raised the cross again, shouted and rushed in again. Roll out, stand up, raise the sword, rush in again. Roll out, stand up, raise the sword.
Not knowing when it started, Gareth had an extra cup of coffee in his hand. Right, he also found an old-fashioned black record player in the corridor.
"Oh, the taste of the owner of this house is really good. I like it."
He took out the black record and put it into the record player. Then, he moved the needle … It was a dance song, Blue Danube.
"Ha!!" "Ha!!" "Ya!!!"
The diligent and unyielding battle cry and the notes of the dance song were wonderfully intertwined in the corridor. Gareth sat down and began to flip through today's newspaper.
"Oh, brave Klein, please be sure to persevere until I finish reading this article."
"I will work hard!!! Ha!!! "
“Good-boy。”
…
…
"Yin Tao?"
Miss Maid didn't eat the afternoon tea sent by the hotel. Instead, she prepared a light fruit plate for her master.
"Yes, this hotel is not bad. There is an indoor organic farm downstairs. I went to pick some and brought them back," You Ye said softly.
The stems of the cherries were all pulled out, like sparkling rubies.
The suite on the upper floor of this hotel could be said to have everything. On the outside terrace, it was equipped with a large open-air swimming pool. Boss Luo was sitting on a beach chair on the terrace, reading an English book leisurely.
He took a Yin Tao from the plate and put it into his mouth to taste. Suddenly, he curiously said, "Right, when I just came up, I didn't seem to see the 13th floor … Is it like this?"
"In the West, the number 13 is a taboo." Miss Maid sat next to him and said softly, "Many of the older buildings will remove the 13th floor, but it is very rare in modern times."
Boss Luo looked at the River Thames outside and smiled, "The missing 13th floor, I don't know if something interesting will happen."
"If the master wants it, it will naturally be there." Miss Maid told him the truth.
Luoqiu was startled, then shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I still want to be quiet for two more days."
As he said, he picked up a Yin Tao and sent it to the maid's mouth to feed her.
Miss Maid lifted her hair, lowered her head and gently opened her lips, then slowly bit it.
"Is it delicious?"
"Yes."
