What! Our family is actually the descendant of the evil god?.

The card game lasted until four o'clock in the afternoon. The three night watchmen who were brought by Peter walked out of the office with a smile, leaving only one sentence.

"Remember to call us next time you play cards."

Peter didn't answer. He looked at the cards on the table with empty eyes for a long time without moving.

Today, he lost a total of 30 pounds, which was his week's salary.

David on the other side reached out and patted Peter on the shoulder. Although he also lost, he did not lose as much as Peter, only 12 pounds.

After finding out that Peter lost more than he did, he actually didn't feel so bad anymore.

"Take it easy!" David said comfortingly.

Peter's lips trembled, and he looked so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe:

"That's 30 pounds! That's my week's salary!"

Eros, who won 31 pounds as a person, sat aside and smiled without saying a word.

Eros was not surprised that Peter earned £30 a week.

After all, Peter has been with the Night Watch for twenty years, and he was recently promoted to Sequence 6, so a weekly salary of 30 pounds is actually normal.

Just when Peter was feeling heartbroken, there was a knock at the office door.

After hearing the knock on the door, Daisy, who was sitting in her seat, shouted:

"Please come in!"

As this sentence was heard outside the door, the next second, the office door was opened from the outside.

A young man in a police uniform stood outside the door, looking into the office.

After seeing Vivian in the office, the young man breathed a sigh of relief and shouted loudly:

"Ms. Vivian, we just received a mission to catch a snake. I wonder if you are interested."

"The person who called the police was Atewa, the housekeeper of the jeweler Glade. He said that his employer, Glade, originally wanted to dig a basement under his house, but ended up digging up a large group of poisonous snakes."

"The snakes are now circling around the yard, making his employer afraid to go home."

"So Glade sent him to the police station to call the police, wanting us to help get rid of the poisonous snakes in his house."

"For this, he is willing to pay a thank you fee of 50 pounds."

Originally, it doesn't cost money to call the police to handle these matters, but if the person who calls the police is willing to pay, they won't refuse.

In the past few years, many police officers have used this kind of thing to ask for thank-you money from people who called the police, and would refuse to work if they were not paid.

But later, the empire issued corresponding laws, prohibiting the active request for thank-you fees in any form. If reported, if the situation is true, not only will the person be dismissed, but also fined.

The amount of the fine is ten times the thank-you fee collected, and this money is compensated to the person who called the police.

Once these policies were introduced, the behavior of asking for thank-you money after taking a long time to work gradually became very rare.

However, the law does not prohibit police officers from accepting thank-you fees voluntarily given by people who call the police.

To a certain extent, this has also mobilized the enthusiasm of police officers to handle matters.

In the office, Vivian, who was happily counting her dividends, raised her head in confusion when she heard someone calling her.

But after hearing about the 50 pounds thank you fee, she immediately stood up from her chair, her face quite excited:

"Where's the snake?"

That's 50 pounds. Even if I split it with other police officers, it would still be a lot.

It was just catching a snake, and to her, it was no different from just giving her money.

She had already decided that, to show her respect for the 50 pounds, she would catch the snake with her bare hands.

Hearing Vivian's slightly excited answer, the young police officer immediately understood that Vivian had agreed.

So he smiled and said, "It's at 18 Kasrat Street. It's a villa near the mountains."

"It may be for this reason that there are poisonous snakes lurking under the house."

"The person who called the police, Steward Atewa, said that before we go tomorrow, we should go to Villa No. 109 on the Coastal Avenue to find him. He will arrange for servants to take us to the mountain villa."

Hearing this, Vivian's pretty face showed a little disappointment. It turned out that they couldn't catch the snake now.

But she could understand it, after all, it was starting to get dark.

By the time the other police officers prepared the snake-catching tools and rushed to the mountain villa, it was probably already completely dark.

Catching snakes at night with a gas lamp is indeed a bit dangerous for ordinary police officers.

"I understand. Remember to let me know when you go tomorrow."

Vivian suppressed the disappointment on her face and replied to the young man at the door.

After a few more words, the young policeman left reluctantly.

After the young police officer left, Eros looked at Vivian in front of him and chuckled:

"It's already the end of February. Haidaram is close to the sea, and the temperature is higher than inland. It seems that the snakes wake up from hibernation within these few days."

"It looks like the jeweler, digging in the basement, woke up the snakes that were hibernating in a cave somewhere underground."

"The body functions of newly awakened snakes will be slightly reduced, so they should be easier to catch."

"Of course! This shouldn't make any difference to Ms. Vivian."

Vivian looked at Eros in surprise: "You know all this?"

Eros blinked and said modestly, "I took a few biology classes before."

David on the side curled his lips and said, "I accidentally heard about this course when I was inspecting Saint Goya University before."

Sangya University is one of the seven universities in Haidaram, a public university funded by the government.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, David continued:

"What they said was simply ridiculous to me."

"They actually believe that humans and pigs cannot have children, that wild boars cannot grow on trees, and that we humans evolved from monkeys."

"I think he is the evolution of monkeys."

Hearing David's complaints, Eros' mouth twitched.

But you know what, on the mysterious side, let alone humans and pigs giving birth to children, even if pigs give birth to a human baby, it is not uncommon.

Some strange alchemists have already made these attempts, including but not limited to making grapes grow in the ground, wild boars grow wings, apple trees produce milk, and dragon fruit grow on human brains.

Not long ago, Eros saw with his own eyes a bluefin tuna with human legs and buttocks and two anuses.

On the mysterious side, there is nothing that crazy alchemists can't do, except what you can't think of.

So, to someone who has received a common sense education on the mystical side, the biology of the civilized world does sound a bit absurd.

After a light cough, Eros explained, "The biology of ordinary people only deals with creatures that are not affected by mysterious forces. It is different from what we are exposed to."

"If there is no influence of spiritual power, humans and pigs really cannot have children because of reproductive isolation."

David shrugged.
