Chapter 299 Cardillian (please vote)
"I like your news, Sir, and so will the old drunkard. Although he has a bad temper, he can still wait for this little time."
The clockmaker nodded with satisfaction.
"Then, we have unified our opinions on how to deal with the Notting Hill family."
Julie was also very pleased: "Does anyone else want to exchange information?"
"I!"
The white cat witch stood up and looked around: "I accepted a commission from the school to hunt down a mysterious person! She is a follower of Damo and belongs to the Natural School of the Wilderness Order!"
"A woman?"
Shadow spoke hoarsely.
"Yes, we believe that Damo's domain is 'fallen', and this woman is very dangerous... Judging from the current intelligence, she should have passed through the pure white wilderness and is an 'excellent person'. This is her sketch! "
The white cat witch distributed the sketches she had prepared.
Zhong Shenxiu heard the artist sneer, obviously he had some objections to the artist of the sketch.
He looked at the sketch in his hand and found that it was the face of a young woman with delicate features, a pair of round eyes and a small nose.
"Understood, I will mobilize people to find her."
What Zhong Shenxiu didn't expect was that Julie was the first to respond.
Jasmine, who seemed a little surprised to see him and had a good impression of him, immediately explained: "Ouroboros hates Damo because there is a legend that in addition to destiny, Ouroboros is also involved in the field of original sin and is the leader of the seven deadly sins. Master... This has created a disagreement with Damo. After all, Damo is in charge of the 'Fallen'... For great beings, they may not value power, but the symbolic meaning is very important, which is also worthy of their followers. This mutual hostility, targeting, and even vendetta..."
"If I want to hunt down this woman, that's normal, but the school behind you, White Cat Witch, believes in the 'Lost Name', right?"
Julie said: "Why target this woman? By the way, what is her name?"
"Kadillian Burns! This is her name. As for why my school is chasing her, it's because she stole a very confidential manuscript from our school."
The white cat witch replied.
The 'Lost Name' is also a great being. The sect where the White Cat Witch belongs firmly believes that there are twelve great gods in total, and together they form the source of all mysteries.
And the history of one of them has been hidden by the Keeper, causing no one to remember his name.
This one is the ‘Lost Name’!
Precisely because he was forgotten, this being had relatively good relations with other great beings, except for the Keeper of Secrets.
"So, what reward does your school give? Together with the documents!"
the butcher asked loudly.
The white cat witch took a deep breath: "A 'Scarlet Key' can guide you to the Crimson River!"
Zhong Shenxiu's eyes lit up slightly, and he saw the butcher and the detective both laughing: "Deal!"
After no one came forward to exchange information, Julie announced that the party would move to the next stage, trading items.
Several Bloody Marys brought by Zhong Shenxiu were sold at good prices.
But no one cares about the artist's paintings.
In addition, the white cat witch's spiritual materials and several small alchemical items from the clockmaker are also in demand.
Especially that jazz man, he should be a rich man in the real world, and his wealth in spending money like crazy is just a little worse than Zhong Shenxiu.
After everything was over, Julie announced that the meeting was adjourned.
Everyone left one by one, and it was already early morning.
The all-night carnival in the villa on the ground had come to an end, and people in twos and threes left.
Partygoers can hide among them without being at all conspicuous.
Zhong Shenxiu walked around in a circle, looked at the sun that had just risen, and went straight home to sleep.
His routine in this world has been ruined. Morning starts at night, and the day is spent sleeping.
…
It's another early morning.
Zhong Shenxiu walked back to No. 25 Meilin Avenue, passed by the garden, and was about to return to his room to rest.
Suddenly, two sisters, Carmela and Jennifer, were seen jumping back from outside, seemingly holding something in their arms.
"what is that?"
He stopped Carmela and saw a dark, furry mass in Jennifer's arms.
"This is the kitten Jennifer picked up on the road!"
Carmela twisted the furry dumpling and said to Zhong Shen Xiu.
"Yeah, I picked it up on the roadside. It seemed to be injured. It looked so pitiful... My sister said it was very cute, so we took it home."
Jennifer replied very innocently.
"Um……"
Zhong Shenxiu nodded. Little girls like pets. It is normal to pick up some kittens and puppies and raise them.
Then, Jennifer sucked her little finger and added: "After all, it is also a piece of meat, although it is a bit sour..."
"Ahem..."
Zhong Shenxiu coughed twice unexpectedly, looked at the kitten with the same fried fur, and asked in disbelief: "What were you talking about just now?"
Only then did he realize that the way the two sisters looked at the black kitten was not like they were fond of pets, but more like...looking at food like a piece of bread.
"Didn't Lady Mary treat us to dinner before?"
Carmela replied without any disapproval.
Zhong Shenxiu searched Li Wei's memory and suddenly felt enlightened.
People in slums will eat anything in order to survive. If there is a real famine, those small animals are naturally an excellent source of protein.
'It's ridiculous to talk about etiquette with a group of people who don't even have enough to eat...'
"How can cats be so cute, how can you eat them?"
However, Zhong Shenxiu still got goosebumps when looking at Jennifer's pure eyes.
"Okay, it's not like we can't afford meat, so don't think about cats, not even dogs!"
He educated his two sisters. Looking at the little black dumpling in Carmela’s hand, he still felt that it was not safe, so he twisted the kitten up casually: “Let me take a look, um, it’s still a female cat. !”
"Meow!"
The little black female cat seemed to be insulted and waved her claws quickly, but was easily suppressed by Zhong Shenxiu.
"Anyway, this cat can't be eaten. If you want to keep it, you can keep it... Well, you still need to undergo sterilization surgery..."
He nodded and handed the kitten back to Carmela.
"You can't raise it to eat meat, it's of little value!"
Carmela replied calmly.
"Forget it, let the housekeeper and the maid raise them. At least they can catch mice..."
Zhong Shenxiu waved his hand and walked into the room.
Although the little black cat was very humane, there was nothing wrong with him.
It's really just an ordinary kitten.
