I'm an antique shop owner, so it's reasonable for me to know some magic

Chapter 120 Dinner,

"Adjust your mindset. You don't want to be part of this family's side branch, but come back to inherit power and wealth as the future head of the family."

"Why are you so timid?"

Su Fan's words made Ron couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"It would be fine if I really came here to inherit the family fortune, but last night, Su, you severely injured Lashe..."

Not only did she have no intention of inheriting, but she also brought an exorcist and almost killed the demon that everyone in the family wanted to make a contract with.

It was really against my conscience to let her act like that.

Su Fan didn't say anything more.

For most people who are accustomed to living an ordinary life, the sudden acquisition of wealth and power will make them feel anxious.

He had been dawdling in New Orleans for two days.

I don’t know what happened to the antique shop. I hope Jamie can take good care of it.

"Can we find any trace of Lashe now?"

Ron inquired.

"He restrained all his aura and hid himself. But I have a clue."

"Really? I was thinking of Ren Xipu coming over to help with the investigation."

Xipu can see the memory of the existence connected to the object by touching it.

He is indeed a master at collecting intelligence and investigating the truth.

However, right now he should be busy dealing with witch hunters together with members of the priest organization.

"Carlotta sent a message..."

"what did she say?"

"She wishes to have us attend the evening's banquet at the Mayfair mansion."

"us?"

Su Fan frowned.

Carlotta counted him in as well.

But he had no interest in having dinner with a dead old woman.

"Don't go."

"Wear the talisman I gave you and be careful when you eat."

"Maybe that old woman will poison your food or something..."

"This is too exaggerated."

Ron smiled and shook her head, but since it was Su Fan's reminder, she would not ignore it.

"Okay, I'll keep your advice in mind, Sue."

As the sun sets, darkness quickly falls over the city of New Orleans.

Ron went to the mansion he visited during the day, where others were already waiting.

The waiter who had summoned Carlotta during the day appeared in front of Ron again.

"Ms. Rowan, this way."

Throughout the mansion, there are maids who are responsible for cleaning and doing miscellaneous tasks, as well as dedicated waiters and chefs.

Now that the dinner has not started yet, most of them have finished their work and are gathering in groups of three or four to chat.

As Ron passed by, some fragments floated into her ears.

"Last night, there was a rare small-scale thunderstorm in the central district..."

"What it is?"

"That means that only that area had thunderstorms... The lightning not only created holes all over the ground, but the strong winds also tore down the power lines."

"Is this the reason for the power outage in the city?"

"Is there any other reason?"

Hearing this, she couldn't help but quicken her pace a little.

But the restaurant seemed empty.

With nothing to do, Ron walked up the stairs.

At the door of a bedroom, she saw a portrait of her mother out of the corner of her eye, so she stopped and walked in.

Traces of wheelchairs and portraits...

This is indeed where her mother lived before she died.

The dressing table not far away suddenly emitted a strange wave.

Ron felt a sudden throbbing in his heart and subconsciously looked behind him.

In front of the mirror, a key-shaped necklace was lying there quietly. ——————

"Are you just going to let Ron stay in that mansion?"

"Josephine, don't worry about those useless things... With him here, nothing will go wrong with Ron."

The man took a puff of his pipe, puffed out the smoke, and stood up from the sofa.

"It's getting late, let's get ready for dinner."

After hearing her father's instructions, the woman didn't say anything more and turned to walk towards the restaurant.

Just as Cortland was about to leave, the door in front of him closed automatically!
However, Cortlandt did not seem panicked. He looked around as if he was looking for the figure.

But when he turned around, he saw a figure emitting black energy.

A figure was floating in the air, it seemed to be a woman, but the ghostly aura emanating from her body made him shudder!
He was from a witch family and knew about the existence of the spirit Lashe, and had even seen it with his own eyes, but he had never seen an evil spirit!

The pipe in his hand fell to the ground, and Cortlandt kept backing away, but accidentally fell to the ground.

In his shaking vision, a figure had sat down on the sofa chair where he had just sat without him noticing.

"Where's Lasher?"

A familiar voice was heard, causing Cortland's eyes to widen subconsciously.

"It's actually you..."

The person sitting on the sofa was undoubtedly Su Fan.

He went straight to Cortlandt's mansion, ready to wipe out the roots of the enemy.

But they found the remaining black energy of Lashe, but did not see his shadow.

Realizing that Lashe had not gone far, Su Fan directly captured him and questioned him.

Opposite Sufan, Cortlandt looked dazed.

Last night, Lashe appeared in front of him.

Unlike the calmness he had before, the latter at that time was terrified, as if he had experienced something extremely terrifying.

His voice was extremely weak and his body was no longer as solid as before. He looked like a phantom that would disappear at any time.

After that, he heard about what was happening in the central neighborhood.

After a little thought, Cortlandt knew the truth.

Last night, Lashe fought with some existence, was defeated, and suffered heavy damage!

"Last night, you severely injured him..."

Cortland's gaze turned to the astrologer ghost floating in the air.

She stood still in front of Su Fan, waiting for the young man's order.

This terrifying evil spirit is obviously his most loyal subordinate!
Su Fan frowned when he heard that.

The astrologer ghost raised her hand.

The tarot cards emitting red light suddenly appeared less than half a meter in front of Cortland.

A sword card flew out.

The next second, a huge sword came from nowhere and fell from the sky, piercing through the cards and the floor!
The chill emanating from the greatsword made Cortland's hair stand on end!

“Don’t talk nonsense, I know Lashe has a relationship with you.”

"Where did he go?"

Su Fan's voice was cold, without any emotion.

Only then did Cortland realize something.

If he didn't say it, the young man in front of him would really kill him!

"I...I don't know."

Cortlandt trembled, his legs shaking.

"I don't have the talent... to sense Lasher's presence unless he wants to appear in front of me."

Suddenly, Cortlandt remembered something and looked up suddenly.

"…It's Tessa! It's Tessa!"

"She came here, sat for a while, and then left suddenly..."

"She was the one who took Lasher away!"
