Count of Wizards

When the intermediary uncle left, the young man walked into the manor alone. Although this place is called a "manor", in fact, strictly speaking, it is just a larger yard with a farm Forget it, it is completely different from the luxurious manors owned by nobles and rich businessmen covering an area of ​​over a hundred acres for vacation.

Looking around, the young man's face showed a wavy light, and then the young man with an ordinary face showed his original shape.

"The third one!"

Connor is still very satisfied with the surrounding environment, this is the third property he has acquired this week.

There is an old saying on the earth, "the cunning rabbit has three holes", and Connor still takes it seriously.

After experiencing what happened last time, Connor was very moved. At the critical moment, he didn't even have a safe house of his own in Loen, so he could only rely on the safe house of the Secret Society. This situation is very difficult for Connor is very unacceptable.

A few days ago, he had to be busy treating mental trauma, buying an apartment with a loan, and making breakthroughs. Connor didn’t have time to complete this task. Now it just so happened that Connor had paid the final payment for the apartment and still had 1,500 pounds left. The bank loan is still very ample, and there is no news from Margaret, so he can only hold back now, so he took time to deal with this matter.

The characteristics of these three properties are all different. Some are in the downtown area, some are in the slums, and some are in the countryside like the one in front of me. The reason for this choice is that Connor is also prepared for danger in times of peace. At critical times, others can infer the scope of his other safe houses by observing the characteristics of one of them.

After checking again and simply setting up some traps, Connor left and returned to his apartment at No. 16 Land Street.

Back home, Connor had a surprise discovery, there was an extra letter in his mailbox!

From the packaging to the contents of this letter, there is no difference. On the surface, it looks like a questionnaire from a restaurant named Spar to Connor, asking whether Connor is satisfied with their restaurant's dishes and services. Any comments or something.

After carefully reading the questionnaire, a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of Connor's mouth. After a week, Margaret finally found him what he wanted.

There is nothing wrong with the questionnaire itself, even if you use the most advanced detection spells to detect it, there will be no problems, because what is really interesting is not the questionnaire, but the content of the questionnaire.

Questions like "Dear Sir, which dish in our restaurant is your favorite" will show completely different content after being interpreted by an agreed password. Do, also can't understand the contents of the questionnaire.

This is the way Connor and Margaret negotiated after the last meeting in the apartment, in order to be careful to conceal the information from others. After all, today is different from the past. Edel, the captain of the arbiter team, took over, and the new official took over. The unofficial wizards in the Loen area were searched and arrested very strictly.

After rearranging his clothes, Connor embarked on a trip to the city library.

Arriving at the Loen City Library, Connor pretended to read history books for a while, then returned the books to their original places, and came to the front desk of the library.

"Hi, my friend left something for me in the locker, can you give it to me?" Connor said politely to the lady administrator who was doing exquisite makeup at the front desk:

The current library is completely different from the library on the earth. The library here is not open to the public for free. If you want to come in to read books and find materials, it costs ten pence an hour, but in this world, a worker may only spend twenty or thirty pence a week. So coming to the library to read is an absolute luxury!

"Did your friend tell you which locker he keeps his things in?" Hearing Connor's question, the young lady administrator who was putting on makeup had a look of displeasure in her eyes, but she stopped putting on makeup and stood up. Start serving Connor.

"Locker 077!" Unaffected by the unhappiness in the administrator's eyes, Connor said lightly:

"I'll show you!" Hearing Connor give the locker number, the young lady administrator immediately walked to the safe room of the library.

Looking at the back of the administrator's sister at work, Connor couldn't help admiring Margaret's courage. Didn't she know that the administrators who can work in the city library are more or less connected to come here?

For example, this young lady serving Connor, Connor thinks that it is probably due to the influence of the feminist movement in the empire, a wealthy family who came out to find a job, or else with her salary, she can afford this big-name fashion, and What bottles and cans are used for makeup?

With the seriousness of their work, they might make a mistake and give something to someone else at some point.

About five minutes later, the administrator walked out of the safe room with a document package, came to Connor and handed over the document package, saying, "The storage fee is ten pence, plus the money you pay for reading here, a total of two pennies." Tenpence!"

Looking through the wallet, Connor regretfully found that there was no change in his wallet, and the smallest denomination of banknotes was one shilling. He shook his head slightly, and Connor took out a one-shilling banknote and handed it over.

"You don't need to look for it, I'll treat you to milk tea for the extra money!" After speaking, Connor picked up the document bag and turned to leave!

"Wait a moment!"

To Connor's surprise, before he had gone a few steps, the administrator lady came to Connor with eighty pence in change.

"It's eighty pence, you count it, not all girls are greedy for the petty gains of you dandies!" Throwing the eighty pence change into Connor's hand, the very individual administrator My sister turned around and left, leaving only Connor in a mess in the wind...

"I..." Connor opened his mouth to say something, but he felt annoyed and funny at the same time, did he become a playboy?

After being stunned for a few seconds, Connor shrugged, put the penny in his hand back into his wallet, and left the library immediately.

Although the situation is a bit like the happy friends in a soap opera, Connor has no interest in playing this game, and his current attention is entirely on the information Margaret left him.

However, after only reading the beginning, Connor couldn't help frowning...
