Chapter 74:
Have you encountered the attention of the contract god Yogfried who is 50% progressed...
It seems that this is a god who, like the Lord of Dawn, has not fallen into slumber.
"The transaction is completed," Claire put away the contract. "You must keep this epochal relic. If you lose it, you will be punished~"
Wei En put the book into the space ring and was annoyed. He said: "As long as you don't deliberately cause harm, no third person should know about this."
However, after signing the equality contract, he breathed a sigh of relief. At least he didn't have to worry about Claire coming to assassinate him again in the short term.
"Of course not, huh?"
Claire turned her head and glanced behind her, "It seems you are very dishonest~Investigator Wayne."
Wayne also noticed Lacey and the others coming towards this side, "This can only It shows that you are too strong."
"I originally wanted to stay with you for a while, but forget it, I'll see you next time."
Claire stood up lightly and appeared behind him the moment she took a step, sticking close to him She put her back close to his ear and whispered: "Next time, I will allow you to see it openly~"
Wei En felt his ears itching and his hairs stood up, "Look, what are you looking at?"
"Grrrrrr~ "
Kleiya didn't answer, and her figure slowly disappeared, leaving only a silver bell-like laughter.
"Sir Quello, there is a very delicious restaurant here. I hope you like it..." "
Damn it, those Basques in the Laos neighborhood should rot there, not everywhere..." "
Big news, The whistle-blowing birds of the city-state's Secret Adjustment Department..."
Hearing the sounds around him filling his ears again, Wei En let out a sigh of relief, seemingly getting rid of that illusion.
Fortunately, Claire wasn't here to assassinate him this time, otherwise when Lacey and the others came over, they would have to collect his body for him.
Thinking like this, I saw Lacey and Marco rushing over, "Wayne, are you okay? Is Claire here again? Where is she?" "She's gone. She left after seeing you
coming. ."
"She didn't do anything to you?" Marco looked around to make sure there was nothing unusual and asked.
"No, it's probably because I didn't have time. She didn't expect that I had this."
Wei En took out the 'alarm' from his pocket and shook it. "I also want to thank the captain for giving me this, otherwise she might have done it." "Damn it
. Claire, even though she was so seriously injured yesterday, she still dares to come today."
Lacey's face did not change for the better because of his thanks, "Then what did she say?"
Wei En was half-serious. She said falsely: "She's a little crazy. She said she wanted compensation from me. She blamed me for causing her to be injured. She also said she was very interested in my body. I don't quite understand what she was referring to..." Marco sounded familiar
. , seems to remember what Claire said to him last time.
"Then you have to be careful. Claire said this because she wants you to become her puppet."
"Ah?"
Lacey looked even more angry, "Has that bastard Yegor ever taken this matter to heart? Come on, you agreed to..."
At this time, a buzzing voice interrupted her.
"Huh? Summon me at this time?"
Lacey turned around and looked at the Secret Assistant not far away with a frown on his face.
Wayne asked doubtfully: "What's wrong?"
He noticed that the sounds came from her earrings, an amber earring that looked like a precision gear, and the shape was very... ugly.
"The summons of the high-ranking committee members," Lacey clicked on her earrings, "Marco, you take Wayne back first, I have to leave for a while." "Okay." "...You go about your business first, I'll talk about my
affairs
when you come back. ."
"Wayne,"
Lacey looked at him and said solemnly: "As for Claire, I will apply to the higher-ups again. Don't worry, I will never let her run amok in Custer." "Yes." Wayne
nodded
. He nodded, feeling warm in his heart.
In any case, they were indeed concerned about his safety, but they arrived a little late...
When Wayne returned to the office, he was surprised to find that Tina had returned and was sitting quietly at his desk playing with a clown doll. .
Before he could speak, a red message appeared in his mind.
[You have indirect contact with forbidden object 1-83 Demon Clown, and your fate has changed to a certain extent. The current encounter progress is 50/100. Comment: Fate always makes people unhappy, and so do taboos.
Special rewards: Survival Points +20, Origin +2, Resilience Level +3, Spirit Level +3. 】
Indirect contact?
Wayne's eyes fell on the clown doll in Tina's hand.
Is that a demonic clown?
No,
it shouldn't be.
If so, the progress shouldn't be only 50%, but it has already been encountered!
Thinking like this, Wei En smiled and said, "Tina, when did you come back?"
"Tina, last night."
The white-haired girl turned to look at him, jumped down from the high-backed chair, and dragged the A clown doll about her size jumped over.
Then under Wei En's surprised gaze, he held his hand.
"Tina, you..."
That lively and beating pace, combined with that dead and empty face, always felt weird...
Besides, she didn't walk like this before, right?
Marco returned to his seat and said casually: "When I saw her in the morning, it was like this. Lacey said it was the sequelae of that, and it would be fine in a few days."
"That's it."
Mentioning what happened last time, Wayne's eyes flashed with tenderness and he patted Tina on the head, "If you can smile a little, it would be nice to look like this." "
Tina, smile."
When Tina heard his words, she really grinned and showed a weird smile.
Wei En just glanced at it and broke into a cold sweat.
Whose smile is from ear to ear...
"Tina, stop it, let's stop laughing from now on."
The white-haired girl's smile disappeared, "Tina, I know."
"That's one of the side effects," Mal When Ke saw this scene, his expression was the same as that of Wayne, "I have already suggested to Lacey that she should not be allowed to go on missions for the time being." "
Good suggestion."
Wayne wiped the sweat from his head and pulled Tina back. seat.
It seems that I have to keep a distance from the people of Dawn Church in the future. If we do it again, I don’t know what Tina will become.
If a catastrophic deformation occurs... it will be difficult for him not to die.
...
...
It wasn't until after lunch that Lacey opened the door and came in with a look of displeasure.
"Hey, Chief Lacey, why are you back so late?" Marco came over immediately.
"Get away." Lacey slapped him away.
"Huh? It seems that today's meeting did not go well?"
Wei En stopped the drawing of the mechanical puppet he was drawing and looked up at Lacey. He was also curious about what new moves the top management of the Secret Adjustment Department had made.
Lacey ignored him, sat down on the high-backed chair, crossed her arms on her chest, and thought about something.
After a long while, she said quietly: "Do you think it is possible that our Secretary General has been replaced by someone else?" Has the
Secretary General been replaced? ?
Marco and Wayne looked at each other, both confused. Why did they ask this so suddenly?
