Lord of Secrets

Chapter 338 337. Profligate Merchant

Only because of the good concealment, it was not until the other party finally turned around that the rise and fall of the collar caused the necklace to be exposed.

As for why Byrklo knew it was a craftsman's artifact, it was because craftsmen's artifacts were different from things made by ordinary people.

It is difficult for ordinary people to discover, but after all, he was once a "craftsman", so he naturally knows the subtleties. After all, the skills are naturally different.

The reason why something was wrong was that he felt that this should be an ordinary girl. After all, no matter how the extraordinary person concealed it, his eyes and temperament would always show some flaws.

Of course, except for witches and the like.

Therefore, the fact that the other party has a craftsman on his body means something is not simple. Loki was suspected to be a transcendent before, so is there another "craftsman" in the other party's circus?

But these are not what Byrklo is most concerned about. What he focuses on is the meaning behind "craftsman".

Because his teacher is a "craftsman".

Of course, not all "craftsmen" were his teachers, but one "craftsman" finally appeared, and Byrklo felt that he needed to investigate.

Opportunities often need to be grasped by oneself. Even if the possibility is slim, he should try to investigate it. Even if it is a waste of time, it is nothing.

However, Byrklo regretted a little. He was so distracted that he didn't pay attention to this, and then stopped the other party to continue asking.

However, at least we know that the other party is Gray Silk Circus and can easily investigate it.

"What did you investigate?"

Horus asked Belcro.

He didn't go out today. After all, he was self-aware. At least he was noticed, so he had better restrain himself.

Byrklo was startled and didn't speak. He walked directly to the table, took a sip of cold water and relaxed for a while, then said: "I know a lot, such as the construction of the Tower of Melis, and an interesting circus. For example, Mr. Basm from Hankrow Street had an affair with the 74-year-old lady next door..."

"stop!"

Horus had a headache. The front was fine, but what was behind him? Could it be that the other party's focus was different from that of ordinary people, or...

"You didn't investigate that matter?" Horus instantly thought of a possibility. The other party was just diverting attention.

Byrklo was not embarrassed at all after being exposed. He had seen many beautiful women. Even a witch like Scarlett, he could restrain himself very well.

Of course, the premise is that the other party does not use the ability.

Immediately, Byrklo asked calmly: "Do you know where to start the investigation?"

Horus was so stunned by the other party's words that he didn't know what to say. They only knew that those children were smuggled from Lier.

But other than that, there is little gain.

How can you investigate if you are blind?

"Things cannot be rushed. Even if we know where those children are, we must first understand Lierli's relationship network and the main characters. Otherwise, what will we do if we are all caught in the same pot?" Byercro said slowly.

He wasn't lying to Horus now.

"Also, we can go to Amon-Ra. Although he is not the intelligence leader, he came a few months before us and may know something about it."

Speaking of this, Byrklo struck: "Of course, you have to pay a price, such as your cute little gold coins. He must be a vampire."

"Then let's go find him now." Horus gritted his teeth and said.

"So, you want to ask me about that?"

Ubermo said curiously, it seemed like he could make an extra small amount of money today.

Byrklo immediately noticed the other party's reply.

Normally, the answer should be - "A case about child smuggling?"

The other party's answer seemed to reveal that he knew about this matter, and it also contained a meaning, that is...

——Are you really ready to trade?

Profiteer... Barcroft cursed in his heart, and then said: "Of course, we want to know about this matter. The transaction amount is 10 Yuri gold coins... Well, Horus paid."

Although Horus had already decided to pay, but when Byrcro said this, he felt as if he had been betrayed. I am afraid that he will not be able to sit on this small boat of friendship.

However, although Horus was a little unhappy, he still said: "Yes, I will pay."

Ubermo pretended to think for a moment and said, "You must know... there is a nobleman involved behind this."

"Don't worry about this, we won't betray you." Horus replied.

"Then we must sign a contract, otherwise I won't believe you."

Horus heard the contract for the first time. He hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement. Anyway, with Byrklo by his side, the other party should not be able to trick him.

"You guys wait a moment."

Ubermore then said that he was going to get the "Scale of Justice."

"good."

After a few minutes, Ubermore returned.

Only then did Byrklo see the sealed object in the opponent's hand. When they came before, it was not the opening time, so Ubermo did not put the "Just Scale" into the exchange.

After signing the contract, Ubermo did not tell them directly. Instead, he suddenly said: "Should we sign another contract?"

When Byrklo heard this, he immediately became vigilant, not because he felt danger, but because the tone was very familiar, just like what a profiteer said before he tried to trick someone again.

Horus thought for a moment, then said: "What contract?"

He didn't refuse directly. Anyway, whether to sign or not was his own business, and he knew the importance of connections. He would have to deal with him in the future, so it didn't hurt to listen now.

Ubermo was sitting up, and then said: "Of course I will help you handle this matter directly, so you don't have to worry about being put on a wanted order afterwards."

To be honest, Horus was very moved.

After all, he just got into trouble in Lierli. If it wasn't forced by life, who would be willing to be wanted?

However, Byrklo became alert for a moment, and he suddenly said: "I think this matter should be very simple for you, or it happens to be one of your original plans, or even worse... …”

After a pause, Byrklo stared at Ubermore, and then said in a low voice: "This matter has been resolved long ago."

Of course, Byrklo's last guess was not unfounded.

According to his way of looking at people, the other person shouldn't be considered a bad person.

Moreover, what is the purpose of the other party opening an exchange?

It should be for information, such as information about treasures, information about extraordinary beings, information about ruins...

So what is the purpose of collecting information?

In a word, the other party is probably doing it for money. After all, money can buy materials, hire extraordinary people, and...

As for the man behind the smuggling of children, the nobleman is definitely not short of money, and he also does immoral things, and ordinary people should target such people.

It seems reasonable, but in fact it is just a possible guess, and this guess is like - you are not a bad person, you like money, and there is a noble who is rich and bad, so you want to kill the other person and rob him the other person’s wealth.

——That’s ridiculous!

However, Baierkro didn't care whether the probability of his guess was absurd or not. He said this guess just to gain an advantage in momentum and observe the other party's expression in order to judge the real situation.

But there was nothing unusual about Ubermore, like a loyal listener.

A few seconds later, Ubermore clapped his hands a few times, and then said approvingly: "Mr. Byercroft, you are so right. I think you should become a detective."

Byrklo looked at Ubermore and then said politely: "Sorry, I'm just a detective."

"Oh, then you decide whether to sign the contract I mentioned." Ubermo said calmly.

"Of course..." Byrklo suddenly smiled, "Mr. Amon-Ra, you have to complete the previous contract first."

"Of course, I can tell you now."

Ubermo then said: "The person behind the Lier Li smuggling case is Baron Niheji, and he has a trafficking line leading to Xi Song.

"She also has a wife named Talido, who is a social butterfly in the upper class."

When Ubermore said "social butterfly" he was not demeaning the other person, although that might be the case, but there was another meaning behind Ubermore's words.

——The other party’s relationship network is complex.

Therefore, if you want to deal with Nihuiji, you also need to pay attention to the other party's wife.

Although the "social butterfly" Talido doesn't care much about Nihuiji's life and death, she must put on a show and track down the murderer with the "grievance" of avenging her late husband.

However, Byrklo and Horus may be targeted again.

Of course, the premise of all this is that Byrklo didn't know the fact that Nihuiji was dead, so he could speculate on this.

As for whether the two people who had just arrived in Lierli would know, it was up to fate. Umbermo did not suffer much loss, so at this moment, he waited leisurely.

Byrklo has been observing Ubermore, but unfortunately, there is no flaw in the opponent's performance, he is like the most cunning devil.

Baron Nighey...

Sorry, who is that?

In the hearts of ordinary extraordinary people, they really look down on nobles. Of course, it may be related to the inferiority complex left before becoming extraordinary people.

However, Barcroft really looked down on a baron. In the Kingdom of Clay, he even had an in-depth communication with a countess and personally put a hat on the lofty count.

Just like those prestigious elders personally preside over the coming-of-age ceremony for their descendants, putting hats on their faces and blessing them with many titles and honors in the future.

Byrklo, who often thinks this way, can he still be expected to think highly of those nobles?

Ahem, don’t talk about this.

Byrklo just came to Lierli. In addition to investigating the situation at the bottom, it was the big nobles, such as Count Hemei and so on.

Baron Nighey is a fringe figure.
