Volume 2 Amber Chapter 65 Cat and Fish
Meow……
A faint cat's meow sounded in the backyard of the manor.
Chen Lun looked in the direction of the sound and saw a white kitten hiding under a tree and calling. It looked a little malnourished and was trembling.
Chen Lun walked over and picked it up gently.
Looking into the amber eyes of the little white cat, he felt a hint of desire and pleading. From its weak cry, he got some intermittent and fragmentary information.
This is a kitten born by a stray cat, who was abandoned by his mother due to the hardship of life. Struggling to survive in hunger and cold, he sneaked in through the gap in the fence of the manor, and saw Chen Lun. He inexplicably developed a great liking for this human and wanted to get close to him and rely on him.
"Lucky for you, I just happened to want to go get something to eat."
Chen Lun put it in his trouser pocket and turned away.
afternoon.
After teaching Rebecca, Chen Lun went into the study of the villa and continued his "treasure hunt".
Butler Binoz specially ordered the maid to prepare a bowl of milk for the little white cat. After it was full and full, it jumped up and down on Chen Lun's table.
"Have you completed what I asked you to do?"
Chen Lun shifted his gaze from the pages of the book in his hand and looked at the little guy beside him.
The little white cat tilted its head in confusion, as if it had no idea what he was talking about.
"Well... it's hard for you to be a spy since you are so young."
Chen Lun curled his lips.
He originally wanted the little white cat to investigate the situation in the villa and confirm whether Viscount Pompey had obtained [Philip's inheritance], but it was obviously too young to understand complicated instructions.
"Have fun."
He stood up and continued to look through the books.
There are many books in the study, but with Chen Lun's efficient searching, he has already handled more than half of them.
By evening, he still had no harvest.
Looking at the last remaining wall of books, Chen Lun sighed.
"Supernormal knowledge is indeed rare. Even in the Viscount's study, only one copy has been found so far..."
At this time, Binoz knocked on the door as usual to announce that it was time for dinner.
Chen Lun put down the book in his hand and left with the little white cat.
On the table.
"Mr. Jack, I specially asked the cook to prepare a dish for you, hehe!"
Rebecca said.
She turned her head and looked at Chen Lun expectantly, her cheeks flushed.
I had originally planned to keep it a secret, and when Mr. Jack saw the dishes he liked, I would remind him and leave an impression in his mind.
But Rebecca couldn't hold it in.
"Oh? Thank you your concern, Miss Rebecca."
Chen Lun smiled.
Rebecca was so excited that she couldn't wait to ask the maid to open the lid.
"This is excellent haddock, Mr. Jack."
Binoz said on the side.
He understood Miss Rebecca's little thoughts and went out of his way to show his support.
"Oh, I love it... Thank you very much, Miss Rebecca, you are such a thoughtful lady."
Chen Lun cut a little bit of fish meat, put it into his mouth, and chewed it with a look of enjoyment.
In fact, he swallowed it straight away.
Rebecca was immediately overjoyed and cast a grateful look towards Floy who was beside Chen Lun.
If it weren't for Miss Floyd, she wouldn't have known that Mr. Jack liked to eat fish. Thanks to her telling her this secret, she won Mr. Jack's praise.
Come on Rebecca!
I must deepen my relationship with Miss Floy and win over Mr. Jack sooner or later!
Floy turned her head slightly, feeling Chen Lun's bitter emotion, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.
"Mr. Jack, eat quickly. If it gets cold, it will affect the taste..."
Rebecca urged.
"Well, of course."
Chen Lun secretly thought that something was wrong and he hooked his fingers slightly under the table, emitting light.
Meow!
The little white cat jumped up, jumped onto the table, and took the fish from the plate.
The action was done in one go, completely ignoring the others.
“…”
Rebecca was stunned, and so were Butler Binoz and Viscount and Viscount Pompey.
"Ahaha! It seems that even a little kitty can't resist Miss Rebecca's feelings..."
Chen Lun chuckled, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere.
After hearing what he said, Rebecca's depressed mood improved a little, but she felt regretful inwardly.
…
A week passed quickly.
A sensational piece of news spread throughout Amber City——
Congressman Daniel was assassinated!
Countless residents were outraged that such a good man who dared to speak up and do things for the common people was brutally murdered!
"Protest! The Amber City Public Security Bureau is doing nothing!"
"It must be Councillor Daniel's proposals and ideas that touched upon the interests of the nobles. They sent someone to assassinate the councillor! The murderer must be severely punished!"
A large number of residents held signs and marched in the streets like a long dragon.
Many workers even went on strike, joined the team in dirty uniforms, and shouted at the top of their lungs.
But this situation mostly occurs in outer urban areas.
The inner city was still peaceful. Although the death of Councillor Daniel was shocking, it only frightened the powerful people. Many middle-class people applauded instead.
The Garden Hotel incident happened some time ago, in which Congressman Lawson's son died. Now another assassination incident has occurred, resulting in the death of Congressman Daniel.
The powerful felt uneasy, so they secretly put pressure on the police station, hoping to improve the safety of the inner city.
A large amount of taxes are collected every year to support the police and guards. How can we allow such high-ranking people to live in fear all day long?
Only a very small number of powerful people were able to learn some unknown inside information through the channels of special department shelters.
They secretly breathed a sigh of relief and spoke cautiously, believing that as long as it did not concern them, they were actually safe.
Outer city area.
Xiashuitan Flower and Bird Tavern.
It's very unusual here today, it's empty without a single customer.
The heavily made-up proprietress leaned against the wall, her eyes wide open, blood spitting out of her mouth, and a big hole in her chest and abdomen.
She had obviously been killed.
The ground in the inner courtyard was littered with corpses, all of them were members of the Iron Fist Gang.
A brown-haired young man stood upright at the door of the building. At his feet knelt a headless corpse with a burly figure.
There were jagged wounds on the headless corpse's neck, as if its head had been bitten off by a giant beast.
"First... sir, I don't know! I really don't know the identity of that person!"
A member of the Iron Fist Gang was crawling in front of the young man, looking terrified.
This strange man broke in and started killing without saying a word, even Boss Gary was killed instantly by him. At that time, it was just a glimpse, and it seemed that the other party just raised his hand and wiped it, and Boss Gary's head disappeared!
Fear spread in his heart. He didn't dare to lie and told everything he knew.
"Is this the man who killed Daniel's butler and took away some of the craftsmen...?"
The young man muttered while looking ahead.
After killing Daniel, Sir Oil Paint asked him to take over Daniel's unfinished business, so Vigere came to the Launch Beach.
He shifted his gaze to the headless corpse at his feet.
"Control the gang leader and get information about Viscount Pompey and 'Dolly'?
It seems that the extraordinary person in Pompeii Manor is him..."
The young man's face showed a thoughtful and murderous look.
"When was I exposed...? No way, could it be a divination-like supernatural power?"
He pondered for a moment and finally decided to go back to Pompeii Manor.
Everything there has long been regarded as their own property, and no matter who this unknown enemy is, he is not allowed to covet it.
