Firefly Journey

After leaving the "Neon" guild, Lin Yuanran had a meal at a nearby restaurant. Perhaps to celebrate his successful onboarding, he ordered an expensive grilled beef steak, which was indeed delicious, far superior to black bread.

Once you're full, you start to regret it. The price of indulging in a little luxury is that one meal can cost you several days' worth of food.

Money is earned, not saved. With a self-comforting thought, Lin Yuanran returned to the ghost hotel with a slight sense of guilt.

After a night, following the information given by his boss, Tong En, Lin Yuanran calmly spent 2 copper coins to head to the "Lanvos District".

Harry Brown is a wealthy banker with considerable assets, so he is naturally picky about his residence. In addition to owning private estates all over the country, his residence in Ibiza is naturally located in Lanworth, a neighborhood known for its wealthy residents.

For someone of his social standing, choosing a place to live is not something to be taken lightly; his social needs must be considered.

Lanworth would undoubtedly be the perfect fit. The saying "birds of a feather flock together" is true. As soon as Harry goes out, any of his neighbors he picks out are someone important.

With each exchange, a network of relationships is built, and then there's no need to worry about business development.

In the Lanworth district, where land is incredibly valuable, Lin Yuanran, dressed in cheap clothes, looked out of place as he got out of the car.

Although he felt a little inferior, he didn't care much. No matter how good this place was, it couldn't compare to a handful of soil or a speck of dust in his original world. He was just a passerby.

Lin Yuanran has always viewed the world from a God's-eye view.

Lin Yuanran rang the doorbell in front of Harry Brown's villa.

The person who opened the door was not a butler or servant, but a male orc over two meters tall. He had a pair of rough fangs, and his entire body was covered in green. He was not wearing clothes on his upper body, but was wearing leather pants on his lower body, and the metal on his belt was gleaming.

Boarman.

It's clear that the ordinary members of the "Neon" guild aren't just randomly selected; at least this orc guy in front of me has a strong physique, making him perfectly capable of being a bodyguard.

“'Tusker' Yale Pound.” The boarman extended his bristly arm in a friendly gesture.

Lin Yuanran shook hands with him: "Ario Morris, nice to meet you."

After all, this orc with fangs is a senior member of the guild, and the proper etiquette cannot be neglected. Moreover, he is in charge of this mission, so we must work together.

Next, Yale Pound led Lin Yuanran into the villa while giving him a general overview of the situation.

Aside from the butler and servants, Mr. Harry had only three immediate family members: his wife, his daughter who was in college, and his ten-year-old son.

His family was not mentioned in those threatening letters, but this is not something to be taken lightly; the Japanese guild's protective network must include them.

These days, Mr. Harry rarely goes out. He handles his work by having his bank staff deliver documents to his home. Mrs. Harry does the same, and their son, Goda Brown, has stopped attending classes and is studying from home.

It's easier to protect them when they're all in one place.

Their daughter, Sheila Brown, refused the Neon Guild's stay-at-home order and chose to continue her studies. She is studying painting and aspires to become a great painter, for which she is working tirelessly.

Normally, such behavior would be admirable, but in special times, stubbornness and unwillingness to back down from the challenge are not considered hard work. Such a person is best described as a fool.

Yale was in a real bind. Sheila's daily attendance at school meant that a portion of their manpower had to follow her. Although the guild had sent enough people, the outside world was not like Harry's villa, where they could simply wait for her to come to them. Losing their home advantage would put them at a disadvantage, and it would be even more difficult to guarantee her personal safety.

After understanding the situation, Lin Yuanran nodded and met with the employer's family.

Mr. Harry is a well-proportioned middle-aged man who pays attention to his appearance, unlike most married men who are overweight.

Mrs. Harry has skin that is smooth and supple for her age, and she doesn't look like a woman who has given birth at all. Even if she stood among a group of young girls in their late teens and early twenties, it would be difficult to find her different.

Their son, Prince Goda, perfectly inherited his parents' excellent genes and has an outstanding appearance.

Lin Yuanran had never met Sheila because she was at school, but there were black and white photos of her at home; she was a very beautiful girl.

Yale didn't know Lin Yuanran was a superhuman, so they didn't have high expectations of him and followed the rules. The other colleagues, however, were somewhat uncomfortable; one more person meant one more share of the pay, so they weren't particularly enthusiastic towards him.

Lin Yuanran saw it all and knew it was only human nature, so he didn't take it to heart.

In the guest room, Lin Yuanran said to "Fang" Yale, "Senior, have you tried to trace the source and find the sender of the letter?"

Yale was visibly taken aback by Lin Yuanran's question, as he had never considered such a question before.

Five days have passed since the two-week commission was placed. Once the time is up, I can collect my money and leave. Why bother with all this trouble?

Most importantly, if something abnormal is found that is beyond one's ability to handle, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

With the idea of ​​killing time, Yale and his bodyguards didn't want to cause any trouble and planned to collect their money without any complications.

Lin Yuanran had his own plans.

Originally, each person was supposed to receive 50 silver coins, but because Lin Yuanran joined, this protection fee will be reduced.

Lin Yuanran wanted more.

After just one hour of contact, Lin Yuanran was absolutely certain that Mr. Harry was a thoroughly wealthy man.

But as a shrewd banker, he naturally knew the cost of hiring bodyguards and didn't spend a penny more.

But if we help him completely resolve the threatening letter incident, the reward will probably be more than just 50 silver coins, right?

Lin Yuanran, who was already an extraordinary being, was confident that he could give it a try and earn enough for the ticket price in one go.

People with different paths cannot work together. He saw through the slacking off of Yale and the others, but he remained calm. Everyone has different pursuits, and there is no need to force them to be on the same boat.

Moreover, if the threatening letter comes from a supernatural being, it will only harm these ordinary people.

Lin Yuanran's confidence in conducting such a thorough investigation stemmed from the fact that the Central District, where St. Louis Academy was located, was less than ten kilometers away. If he encountered any problems that he couldn't resolve, he could simply call for help, and he was confident that the teachers wouldn't ignore him.

Cassius had given him a small clay figure to use as a messenger. It's impossible that Cassius didn't know he had come to Ibiza; he might have been secretly observing him all along.

It feels so good to have someone to back you up...

Yale replied, "That's outside the scope of our mandate; we only guarantee the personal safety of him and his family."

Lin Yuanran smiled, walked up to Yale and said, "I've met Mr. Harry and his family, but only his daughter is left. How about this, I'll go pick her up this afternoon and we can talk about it."

Lin Yuanran seemed to love his work, but Yale didn't care. Anyway, nothing had happened for days, so he could do whatever he wanted as long as it didn't affect his pay.

“Absolutely no problem,” Yale replied.

Lin Yuanran's eyes flashed; he decided to start with Sheila Brown.
