From Prisoner to Si Chen

"What is the attitude of old Viscount Feroz Jacob?"

Ji Lan raised his eyebrows and asked softly.

Feroz is the father of Lady Xenia and the current leader of Viscount Jacob's family.

As the eldest daughter, Mrs. Xenia was said to have been favored by Viscount Feroz before the marriage between the two families.

"Grandpa didn't express his opinion..."

Nancy looked disappointed and sad.

Gillan was silent.

No statement is the best statement.

Presumably, the old Viscount Feroz really didn't want to get into trouble, so he acquiesced to the other children's suppression of the Xiniya family.

I'm afraid he also knows some inside information and knows that Earl Farhan's family has committed a major crime.

Maxwell and Ramon, father and son, are followers of the "Heavenly Evil Order" and their status in the church is not low. They secretly cultivated followers in the capital and held "distribution ceremonies", which had seriously offended the empire.

Therefore, taking in the eldest daughter, Xenia, and her family will take a huge risk, which may very well lead to the Viscount Jacob family being implicated and entering an abyss of destruction.

Old Viscount Feroze saw clearly.

In his heart, no matter how much he loved Xenia and these three grandchildren, he could only regard them as abandoned children in the face of family interests.

"If you come to me for help, what will it do?"

Gilan shook his head and said straightforwardly.

"I can't let Viscount Jacob's family forcefully accept you..."

Hearing this, Nancy's heart skipped a beat.

Next to her, Milinda's eyes were even darker, her mouth was pursed, and tears fell down like threads.

"Brother Jilan, we don't ask you for anything else, we just ask that you come forward and help get the money back..."

Nancy said with a sullen face and lowered her head.

"With that money, our three siblings and our mother have the confidence to continue living in Musixiti. Even if we lose the wealth we used to have, we can at least live with dignity and dignity."

She slowly raised her head, with red eyes, and said:

"Brother, please don't worry. The money is nearly 8,000 Caesars and a jewelry box from my mother. If we can get it all back... we will give you 2,000 Caesars."

Ji Lan looked at the two sad and haggard girls, thinking, but did not reply immediately.

In fact, from the very beginning of his contact with the Ramone family, Gillan felt that among the four siblings, the only one who was the most sensible and worthy of aristocratic status was the second daughter Nancy Farhan.

Take this time, for example, when the other party came to ask for help, Nancy never used the so-called family affection as a bargaining chip, because she knew very well that Gilan had no feelings for the Farhan family.

At the same time, he did not kidnap him morally as his sister. But very directly, let the interests speak for themselves.

2000 Caesar, this is not a small amount of money.

Even if the two parties are not related, they are probably willing to come forward for the sake of the money.

But during this period, the upper class circles of Muse City in the capital were panicked. Earl Farhan's family is also involved in the Old Gods Secret Cult. I am afraid that no one except Gilan would dare to contact the Xenia family for fear of getting into trouble.

The once glorious and admirable family has now become like rats on the street.

In Nancy's heart, her brother Gilan became the only life-saving straw.

In the living room, the atmosphere became quiet for a while.

"Well...Nancy, then I will try to accompany you to Viscount Jacob's house."

Ji Lan groaned and spoke slowly.

“But don’t get your hopes too high.”

"Brother, as long as you are willing to help!"

Hearing this, the younger sister Nancy suddenly showed surprise. Even Milinda on the side stopped sobbing, stared at the blond young man, and said timidly:

"Thank...thank you, brother Jilan."

"You guys sit down for a while while I change my clothes."

Ji Lan stood up and said to the two sisters.

"Yeah! Listen to brother!"

Nancy responded quickly.

Ji Lan nodded and strode towards the master bedroom.

Not long after.

He changed his clothes and came out, then left the rental apartment with the two girls and went downstairs.

But as soon as he walked out of the corridor, Ji Lan saw a black car slowly approaching and parked on the side of the road.

From the driver's seat window, a woman with long black hair wearing a high-collar windbreaker waved quickly:

"Mr. Gillan!"

Hearing the sound, Gilan stopped, turned around and said wait a moment to the two sisters behind him.

He walked to the car, bent down and looked in, and asked doubtfully:

"Miss Maiev, do you have another mission?"

"No." Maiev shook her head.

She looked solemn and lowered her voice:

"The chairman of the committee has officially issued the 'Grave Digger' assessment, and asked the two of us to gather together at the Imperial Plaza at nine o'clock tonight."

"So fast?" Ji Lan was startled.

Immediately he nodded and said, "Okay."

After Maiev delivered the message, she looked up at the two noble ladies not far away and asked curiously:

"Mr. Gillan is planning to go out?"

"Well, help the two sisters go to Viscount Jacob's house to seek justice."

Jilan said calmly.

Maiev raised her eyebrows.

"What happened?"

"It's a small matter. It's just that the Fahan family is involved in the Old God Secret Cult, and no one in the capital circle is willing to help them..."

Ji Lan shook his head slightly.

He roughly relayed the story to Maiev, who became more and more interested as she listened.

"Get in the car, I'll give you a ride."

Maiev smiled and raised her hand to signal.

Looking at the other person's smile, Ji Lan knew that she was gossiping and planned to join in the fun together.

But he didn't refuse either.

Taking a car is more convenient than taking a taxi, and having Maiev accompanying them can also be a more powerful deterrent to Viscount Jacob's family.

"Nancy, Milinda."

Jilan turned around and waved to her sisters.

The two girls looked at each other and walked over obediently.

When they saw Maiev, they were all stunned. Because on the night of the "Black Mass", both of them had met this long-haired black-haired eldest sister, who seemed to be an official official.

"Ms. Maiev Martier, my colleague."

Gilan gave a brief introduction, and then opened the back seat door of the car for the two sisters.

"Get in the car."

"Thank you brother, thank you sister Maiev."

Nancy pulled Milinda to politely thank her, and then said hello to the woman in the driver's seat.

After the two got into the back seat and Gilan sat in the passenger seat, Maiev immediately started the car.

Halfway through, the two sisters Nancy and Milinda were a little cautious and looked at the two people in the front row with surprise.

Brother Gilan said that the black-haired elder sister was his colleague, so what is Brother Gilan’s identity...

Could it be that he also serves in some secret department of the government?

The two of them were puzzled, but they didn't dare to ask any more questions.

The car soon arrived at Blackwell Street, where the Manor of Viscount Jacob was located.

There are also many noble manors here, and the environment is quieter and more beautiful than other neighborhoods.

Maiev drove straight to the gate of Jacob's Manor, and a young male servant who looked after the gate stepped forward to ask.

"The Empire's special department is on business, open the door."

Maiev was too lazy to talk nonsense, so she took out her membership card and looked out the window.

The manservant couldn't help but be startled when he looked at the certificate.

He didn't recognize the document, and he could say he had never seen it before, but the "X" badge with crossed golden swords on it couldn't be faked.

Forging official documents is a serious crime in the empire and is punishable by death if caught. Few people dare to do this.

The manservant didn't dare to stop him and quickly opened the door. At the same time, just in case, he quickly ran to the gate and called the manor villa to report the matter.

Maiev ignored this guy and drove in, walked through the lawn and flower beds, and stopped directly at the gate of the villa.

After learning the news, the Jacob family sent several direct members to greet him at the door.

Among them were Mrs. Xenia, Joan, and four middle-aged people in luxurious clothes, three men and one woman.

Bang bang.

The car door opened and closed, and Gilan and his party got out of the car directly.

Mrs. Xenia's face looked haggard, she had lost her former graceful look, and seemed to have aged several years. The third son, Qiao An, followed her and looked very surprised to see her eldest brother Ji Lan arriving with her two younger sisters.

Four of Jacob's direct descendants strode forward, followed by Mrs. Xenia and Joan.

"Marvin Jacobs."

The speaker was a middle-aged man with short brown hair and a toothbrush beard. He held out his hand to Maiev, smiling broadly.

"On behalf of the entire Jacob family, I welcome your visit, Miss Commissioner."

Obviously, this person recognized Maiev's identity through the concierge's description on the phone, and he acted extremely respectful and attentive.

As members of the Viscount family, they certainly knew about the existence of the "Investigation Committee" and they knew even more about the terrifying power this special department had in the empire.

I don’t dare to offend easily...

"Hello, Lord Malvern."

Maiev didn't mean to reach out and hold it, she just said lightly.

The Marvin Jacob in front of him is Mrs. Xenia's brother, and he is also the leader who forcefully took away her belongings.

This was all information Nancy told her in the car.

"My name is Maiev Martieri."

Maiev turned sideways and introduced the blond young man.

"This is my colleague, Mr. Guillen Iros, who is also the committee leader."

Everyone present was shocked.

Committee member...leader? !

It's scary enough to be an ordinary member, but he is also the leader... This is a big shot equivalent to the deputy minister of the imperial power department, but with a more special status!

How come these two young men and women in front of me have such great backgrounds? !

and.

Guillen Iros…

Why does this name sound so familiar?

Everyone looked at the blond young man. He was wearing black clothes and a black hat, holding a bronze cane. His expression was plain, but he showed an unspeakable sense of oppression.

Yes!

That prohibition agent who was in the limelight a while ago!

Known as the youngest master!

The most important thing is that he is a member of the Farhan family!

How did this young man suddenly change his identity and become the leader of the investigation committee? !

In an instant, the expressions of the four middle-aged direct descendants of the Jacob family changed. They turned to look at their eldest sister, Xenia, and saw that she also had a look of surprise and disbelief.

There were only three young juniors, Joan, Nancy and Milinda, looking confused.

Because they have no idea what kind of department the investigation committee is, let alone the status of the "committee leader".

"I'm here today, I have nothing else to do."

Jilan held his stick and spoke calmly.

"I just heard from Nancy that your Jacob family took all of Mrs. Xenia's property for yourself?"

"?!"
