"That's not it……"

In the hall on the second floor, Ka Xiu touched the antique-looking things around him with his hands as he moved forward. Three minutes later, he put his hand down from an oil painting at the corner of the corridor, and then turned to look at the study not far away.

The shoes made no sound when they stepped on the ground. Card Xiu stood in front of the study door, and a man's voice could be faintly heard from inside.

The content seems to involve the Ace of Spades and the Dust Organization, and there should be two people in the study. One is Matthew and Phil's father who is talking on the phone with someone, and the other is the housekeeper of the villa.

Cardiff captured a key message in it.

The Ace of Spades wants to retaliate against the Dust Organization's actions in recent months, and one of the locations is in Shirakawa City. Shachen got a batch of antiques of unknown origin from other counties and planned to transport them to Shirakawa City for an antique exhibition and antique auction this month.

Some of the antiques seem to have quite sad stories behind them. I don’t know if they were created by sandstorms or if they were originally there. Anyway, these items are the finale of the auction.

Since the quantity of these antiques is quite large, if they are sold to wealthy people in Baichuan City and several nearby cities, Shachen is expected to make a considerable profit. So Ace of Spades decided to mess with the deal, and it would be best to intercept the antiques during transportation.

Teach Shadust a profound lesson.

"On July 25, after midnight, the warehouse was located at No. 118 Beka Street, Shirakawa City. It was a black Ford truck for transportation, and the standard escort was three people, possibly armed with guns..."

Regardless of whether it might be used or not, Ka Xiu took note of this information first. Maybe it will be a life-saving straw then?

Things are unpredictable.

"Here." He finally found the source of the bitter smell. It is an antique vase used as a decoration at the door of the study. It is white and retro in blue. There is a faint gold rim on the top of the bottle, and below it is a series of patterns extending to the bottom.

Card Xiu tentatively pressed his thumb up, and a familiar feeling hit his heart, and cold air poured in crazily along the wound.

"Obsession energy: 1.1→1.2→1.3→1.4..."

"It's so cold." Kaxiu felt the energy of obsession rising, and at the same time endured the cold that made his muscles stiff and tremble.

despair……

The vase shook slightly and swayed slightly.

The voices inside fell silent.

Click! The study door suddenly opened.

A burly middle-aged man wearing a white shirt and a brown vest came out. He has a majestic temperament, meticulous hair, dark brown beard, and sharp eyes. The deep facial features make people think of an eagle flapping its wings at a glance.

The man looked left and right in the corridor, but found nothing. He closed the door again, and the chatter with the butler could be heard.

"Go get 50,000 federal coins and put them in a document bag. I'll go down later and thank the gentleman named Levi."

"Wait, add another 20,000. 70,000 federal coins is enough..."

Living room on the first floor.

"Sorry, I suddenly felt upset. I've been waiting for a long time."

In the corridor to the side, Ka Xiu came over.

"It's okay." Matthew smiled slightly: "I was just talking to Phil about the Gray Seal Martial Arts School. He wants to learn some real fighting skills that will allow him to protect himself. In the next few months, time, I’m afraid I’m going to trouble Mr. Li Wei.”

Next to him, Phil also looked over expectantly.

"That's no problem. As long as you really want to learn fighting skills and practice with me for a while, you will definitely gain something." Kaxiu held a cane in one hand and returned to his original position on the sofa.

The three of them had just been chatting for five or six minutes when a burly man in a white shirt walked down the stairs and came to the living room.

"Father."

Phil and Matthew stood up.

"Mr. Jason." Card Xiu also stood up politely.

The man in front of him is Jason Hudson, the father of Matthew and Phil. There is a vague sense of majesty in his body, and his strong eyebrows and eyes are impressive.

"Haha, don't be formal, sit down and chat." Jason smiled and said to Card Xiu, then pressed his right hand to signal everyone to sit down.

As soon as Ka Xiu sat down, a tan file bag was handed over. It seemed to be bulging with something stuffed inside.

"Mr. Levi, thank you for helping me just now. Otherwise, my Phil will never see me again." Jason said while sitting on the sofa, pressing Phil's head with his hand.

"This is a little thought, please don't refuse." He directly stuffed the document bag into Kaxiu's arms and pulled out his hand very decisively.

"Then...I'll accept it."

Ka Xiu has nothing to be pretentious about. He left Fengnan City and came to Baichuan City, and applied for a job as a coach at the Gray Seal Martial Arts School just to make money. If you want to practice the Wind Elephant Secret Martial Arts, special potions and ointments are essential, and these require a lot of money.

In addition, Ka Xiu also needs to search for legendary antiques and obsessive antiques as much as possible. Networking and financial channels are essential.

Maybe hooking up with the Hudsons would be a good thing.

More than half an hour passed, and a cool breeze hit me.

Card Xiu took a deep breath of the night air, turned back and glanced at the brightly lit gray-white villa. He looked at the upper right corner, and a hint of joy could not help but appear between his eyebrows.

"Obsession Energy: 1.9"

Two obsessive antiques, the purple wooden cane provides 1 point and 1 obsession energy, and the white vase provides 0.8 obsession energy.

The energy source for the next backtracking has been prepared in advance. Card Xiu had a guess in his mind that the obsessional energy required for different backtracking nodes should be different. After all, they represent different periods of Levi's strength. The first retrospective youth training camp incident required a little obsessional energy, and the battle of annihilation should require even more. But no matter how much it is, it shouldn't be able to reach two points of energy.

It's probably stable, which makes Ka Xiu feel confident. Of course, Ka Xiu will not stop looking for obsessive antiques.

He would visit the major antique stores in Shirakawa City every other day, hoping to catch the big and small fish he wanted.

"It's actually 70,000 yuan, which is quite impressive."

Card Xiu walked along the avenue towards his residence and opened the "thank you" that Jason gave him. There are seven bundles of thick yellow banknotes in the tan document bag, each bundle contains one hundred banknotes, and each denomination is one hundred dollars in red Lebanese federal currency.

You know, the Hongli Federation is one of the three major hegemons in the world. Federal coins are quite valuable and have good purchasing power.

"Tomorrow morning, I will go to the drugstore to buy medicinal materials. In the morning, I will visit the major antique stores in Shirakawa City. In the afternoon, I will go to the Gray Seal Martial Arts School..."

Ka Xiu murmured to himself, his schedule for tomorrow seemed to be full. Although very busy, there is a rare sense of fulfillment.

After walking along the avenue for a while, there is a rectangular platform next to the sidewalk with a brass sign inserted on it.

"At half past seven, the buses are gone. I wonder if there are still carriages?" He walked to the platform, holding a cane in his right hand.

In the metropolises of the Hongli Federation, even first- and second-tier cities, carriages have basically disappeared. Only small and medium-sized cities like Fengnan City and Shirakawa City can occasionally see horse-drawn carriages.

More than ten years ago, horse-drawn carriages were still very popular, but now they are gradually being replaced by cars and buses.

A leaf falls from an ornamental tree by the roadside.

"Jingle Bell."

Not far away, a black-covered two-horse carriage drove over.

The update time may need to be adjusted.
