Chapter 273 Delan
DeLand City.
Fang Xian, who entered the city wearing a blue and white shirt, black trousers and carrying a suitcase, felt something was wrong.
There were noticeably more sheriffs patrolling the streets, scanning the unfamiliar faces in the crowd with vigilant and dangerous eyes.
He has become the 'target'.
Immediately, two uniformed sheriffs stepped forward and stopped him in front of them: "Inspection, please show your ID!"
"I forgot to go to the black market to get a set of identification..."
"If I'm caught like this, my running away from home might become a big joke..."
Fang Xian was thinking about something silently in his mind and took out a badge from his pocket.
This was the certificate of being a student of the Mysterious Academy, which he had not had time to return.
If this still doesn’t work, take out your diploma.
Anyway, refusing inspection in public or injuring the sheriff and running away is not a wise choice.
'Well, I also need a disguise mask...'
Fang Xian thought to himself: "I wonder if these are sold in the local black market..."
"So he is a student of the Mysterious Academy."
One sheriff's expression softened, while the other had a slightly more complicated look.
In ancient times, only nobles possessed mysterious powers, and common people could only look in awe.
Now, due to the active spread of the Tower of Wisdom Sages, the mysterious power has become popular among the common people, but the long gap cannot be dissipated in a short time.
There are even some conservative people who regard mysterious people as monsters!
"What happened?"
Fang Xian asked casually.
"A group of ghouls calling themselves 'Gourmets' have roamed around this city... Sorry, due to your identity as a mysterious person, I still need to do an inspection."
The sheriff, with a gentle expression, bowed and signaled his companion to go and call for help immediately.
Fang Xian chatted with him for a while and found out that a group of zombies had been wandering around Worcestershire recently and had committed a large number of serious crimes in Delan City.
The Public Security Bureau therefore mobilized a large number of manpower to go to the streets for inspections.
Not long after, the sheriff came over with another person.
"Special department?"
Fang Xian narrowed . The other person's temperament reminded him of the two agents who went to the manor last time.
"Hello, young fellow, my name is Jax, I also graduated from the Mystic Academy, so I am your senior..."
Jax looked to be about thirty years old, with blond curly hair and a cheerful smile: "Sorry... Please extend your hand. This is a check that all mysterious people must do."
He pulled out a small bottle and shook the liquid inside. "Bloodthirsty tincture. You know its effects."
"If it touches a ghoul's skin, it will change color!"
Fang Xian nodded, held out the back of his hand, and let Jax drop a drop of bloodthirsty tincture on it.
The transparent color melted away without any change.
"Sorry to bother you!"
Seeing this, Jax's smile widened, "I haven't asked for your name yet."
"Call me Odwin!"
Fang Xian smiled back: "I was on my graduation trip, and I didn't expect to encounter something like this."
"Yeah... No one wants that... Graduation is wonderful, but as for your future career plan, I suggest you don't join the special department. Although the pay is good, the tasks are too heavy... Look at my dark circles."
Jax complained, then suddenly asked, "Want to do some odd jobs during the holidays?"
Students who can go on a graduation trip must have at least the level of [Ancient Bronze], the same level as him.
"Senior, do you want to hire me? I don't have this idea at the moment..."
Fang Xian looked around and said, "Any hotels you recommend? Also... I want to go to the local mysterious market, the more secretive one."
“The Laurel Hotel is very nice…”
Jax smiled a smile that all men understand. "I highly recommend it... As for the Mystic Market, it has been raided and closed down recently because it is suspected of housing ghouls and other dark creatures. It has become very deserted. I'm afraid you will be disappointed..."
"really……"
Fang Xian patted his head, thinking that he had forgotten the impact of the chain reaction.
"But... I can recommend you to a private party as an apology for the inconvenience this time." Jax seemed very enthusiastic and handed over a business card. "On Wednesday or Thursday night, go to the address above and say I introduced you. You can disguise yourself beforehand."
"Then...goodbye!"
He waved his hand and continued patrolling with the two sheriffs.
Fang Xian took the business card and glanced at it.
There was no name on it, just an address:
'No. 44 Phoenix Street?'
…
Fang Xian did not have any destination when he came out this time. He just walked around casually, traveled around the continent, collected calamity power, and searched for the inheritance of the "Warlock's Tower".
In addition, we are waiting for the transaction in the 'Dreamland'.
Having made these two preparations, he still had some confidence that he could obtain clues to the inheritance.
Thinking silently, Fang Xian came to the Osmanthus Hotel.
"Hello, sir, are you looking for accommodation or other services ?"
Behind the counter stood a receptionist wearing a black and white maid outfit. She had a deep cleavage and it was simply breathtaking when she bent down.
"Get me a room. Jax recommended it."
Fang Xian said in a deep voice.
"So you're the guest introduced by Mr. Jax..." The girl smiled sweetly. She didn't ask to see the ID card anymore. She quickly checked Fang Xian in and handed him a key. "Turn left on the second floor, the third room. Do you need any special services?"
"No thanks!"
Fang Xian had a cold face, feeling as if he had come to the wrong place.
But when I got to the room and opened it, I unexpectedly found that the furnishings here were nice and very clean.
Especially the dinner, the New World colonial-style meals prepared by the chef were very much to Fang Xian's taste.
After dinner and a nice bath, Fang Xian put on some loose clothes and walked out of the hotel, as if he wanted to take a walk.
Today was exactly the time Jax mentioned, so he slowly walked to No. 44 Phoenix Street.
What comes into view is a huge two-story Western-style building.
Through the iron fence covered with vines, you can see the colorful garden and the exotic red brick house.
Fang Xian stepped forward and rang the doorbell.
Not long after, a middle-aged man who looked like a butler came to the door and asked, "Excuse me, who are you?"
He looked at Fang Xian, who was already wearing a pitch-black mask, with a hint of vigilance in his eyes.
"People who come here to attend the party because of its reputation."
Fang Xian showed the business card in his hand and spoke in a low voice.
“It turned out to be a guest.”
The butler opened the door with a smile and let Fang Xian in easily.
'really……'
Fang Xian followed behind the housekeeper, and he already understood: "It seems that the threshold of this party is relatively low, and the admission is relatively loose. Is Jax just a solicitor?"
He didn't say Jax's name at first because he didn't want to expose himself.
If it really doesn't work, then use his name to enter.
Now it seems that this decision was correct.
Fang Xian maliciously guessed that maybe Jax was a pimp, and if he mentioned his name to conduct a transaction, he would probably get a commission.
