Please Stop Summoning Me! - CH 70.1
In the morning.
Shen Yi and Tina had arrived at a nearby hotel.
Tina had already made a disguise, her whole body was wrapped in thick and loose clothes, not daring to reveal the characteristics of the “animal”.
Seeing the man and women coming in, the proprietress narrowed her eyes and came straight to the point without nonsense.
“The room is not soundproof, and there is no hourly room. You need to stay at least one night, and don’t make too much noise.”
Tina didn’t understand it a bit, but Shen Yi beside her laughed.
And calmly said: “My sister plans to stay here for a few days. It’s a single room. I read on the poster outside that three meals are provided here. Tina, you can stay here for a while.”
“Oh, yes.” Tina immediately nodded her head.
Shen Yi took out his wallet with great distress and slowly booked a room for Tina.
Feeling touched, she said, “Thank you, I really appreciate you.”
In this cosmopolitan city, people were cold-hearted, and there were very few people who could help her.
She really felt from the heart that she was lucky to meet Mr. Wizard.
After paying the rent and completing the procedures, he bid farewell and left the hotel. The proprietress sized up Tina with scrutiny, but didn’t go any further and directly gave the key and led her to her room.
Returning from the hotel, he saw a man outside the café distributing the leaflets for a speech.
Just as he was about to enter the store, the man gave him a copy with a smile.
Shen Yi took a look: “The new Beland mayor election is about to start?”
In the pamphlet he saw a picture of hawk-nosed old man with white hair among the candidates, and wondered curiously: “There are still candidates who are as old as they are, and getting stronger and stronger. Well, anyway it has nothing to do with me.”
Shen Yi shook his head, casually put the flier in his pocket, and entered the café.
After tidying up the café and making sure everything was well, he officially opened the door for today’s business. Just then, he saw a girl in a beige hunting suit walking over from outside with an umbrella.
It was the golden retriever who came, ah no, it was the blonde girl, Chris.
Chris looked a little excited, as if she had already bitten her prey and trotted in.
“Mr. Shen, I’ve…”
Shen Yi shook his head calmly and interrupted her with a smile on his face.
“Let’s have a cup of coffee first… This time, remember to pay.”
“Ah, oh.”
Chris nodded in response, knowing very well that Mr. Shen must not be short of money, this was just a means of camouflage hidden in the world, so played along with him.
So she became the first guest this morning.
“What coffee do you want?”
“It’s still cold brewed iced coffee.” She ordered right away without any hesitation.
Shen Yi nodded lightly, most of these inner world people have fixed tastes.
For example, Byron likes black coffee, and George likes latte.
Only Su Ling would change to a new product every time, and would never drink the same coffee for the second time.
Aina, on the other hand, had no idea about coffee at all, and only waited for his recommendation.
Cold brew iced coffee was a type of iced coffee, made when coarse coffee grounds were steeped in cold water for an extended period of time (usually overnight 12-24 hours), then strained. This brewing process results in a less acidic, smooth coffee.
After making the coffee, he brought it over with a smile.
Chris was so startled to see him serve her coffee that she wanted to jump up to pick it up.
“Your coffee.”
“Thank you, thank you.”
Chris was flattered to take it.
She loved the taste of cold brew iced coffee, no matter what season it was.
The low-temperature cold-extracted coffee liquid did not have the astringency and miscellaneous taste of hot brewing. It tastes very smooth, fresh and slightly sweet, and the sourness and bitterness were also greatly reduced.
“Thanks.”
She thanked him endlessly, took a sip, and opened her eyes wide in exaggeration again.
“Praise the great fire, it’s so delicious!”
Her acting skills were a bit exaggerated, but Shen Yi smiled slightly and said, “Well, tell me about your purpose for coming here.”
Chris immediately said, “I found out about the death of the old candy seller.”
“It’s people from the Bute family who went there and performed an invisible technique, causing the old man to lose his life.”
Shen Yi sat opposite her, leaned back, and nodded slightly like a superior.
“Indeed.”
Chris was taken aback for a moment, could it be that the information she had, in fact, Mr. Shen had already mastered?
And let herself check it out, maybe it was just a test.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that was the case.
She continues seriously, as if giving a report: “The one who done the invisibility technique may be related to the Nolan nobleman, the patriarch of the Bute family.”
The Bute family, Shen Yi had a little impression, seemed to be an ancient family that had withdrawn from the political arena and focused on business.
Chris continued: “It is said that Count Bute has been in poor health and has been hospitalized for a long time. But recently someone saw that he suddenly recovered, and even took the initiative to start playing golf with his friends.”
“It is likely to be the influence of the invisible technique.”
It has been only a few hours, yet she actually investigated so quickly and in such detail?
Shen Yi was surprised in his heart, but his expression remained indifferent.
“How did you get the news?”
Chris thought for a while, and said: “On the one hand, I know a lot of people, and on the other hand, it’s luck. I know a tail collector near the slum, happened to witness the incident.”
In fact, there were special Finishers squatting at the entrances and exits of the slums, monitoring them so as to detect whether important personnel had entered or exited.
As a quasi-head snake, she knew a lot of people, and she also spent a lot of money to inquire, so she got the information quickly.
Chris worked very hard.
She knew very well what a “first impression” at work was. If the first thing the big boss entrusted to her was not done well, it would be difficult to restore her image in the future.
However, Su Ling has been investigating in this case alone, and the Anti-Magical Bureau did not pay attention to it. She could not use various resources in the bureau, so naturally her progress was very slow.
Shen Yi nodded gently, did not make a statement.
Knowing a lot of people was indeed an advantage, no wonder she was very sensible the first time she saw me, it turned out to be a half-headed snake.
Shen Yi complained in his heart, but didn’t react on the surface, but raised a finger.
“Chris, you did a great job, and I will reward you.”
