Chapter 166 Maid
"We can help, and we will pay it." Cheng Mo replied indifferently.
Of course, it is impossible to trade with T.C people for free, especially those who are so rich, they must be paid.
"Then there must be!" the middle-aged man said cheerfully: "I know the price of T·C asking you to assist in the task. I can give you twice as much as you can based on that basis, just ask you to help me solve that problem quickly."
"Trade is completed." Cheng Mo nodded, "Please arrange a place for us, we will go and solve the problem in the evening."
"Okay, I'll let Lily take you to the guest room."
The middle-aged man roamed the bell, and the maid who had just left came back and took the two to the guest room on the second floor as he ordered.
The middle-aged man with a cane looked at the closed door of the reception room, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
On the second floor, in Cheng Mo's guest room.
"Boss Cheng, do we really want to go and have a look now?" Li Jianjian asked in a low voice.
They checked the room just now, and there seemed to be no monitoring or eavesdropping facilities, so they started discussing.
"That's right, the owner of the manor should have concealed some things. I think it may not be as simple as he said." Cheng Mo analyzed.
"How did you see it?" Li Jianjian was surprised. Why did I find nothing.
"First of all, the abnormal phenomenon he described is very problematic. If there is a ghost-like species in the grocery room, it should be to attract innocent people to kill them to absorb energy, rather than to make people faint and send them away. As for the family members, it is impossible to stay in an abandoned grocery room every night and cry, right?"
Only then did Li Jianjian realize the problem: "Indeed, this is not like the style of ghost-like transformation, and there is no reason for the psychics of sin to do this."
Cheng Mo continued: "In addition, when the owner of the manor mentioned the items in the grocery room, he did not feel any sad at all. He also said that no one had gone there for a long time, but later he asked us to help solve the problem quickly. There was no need to be so urgent."
"Yes, it's like urging us to go quickly!" Li Jianjian nodded repeatedly.
"And that guy gave me a feeling of discomfort, and he had something to do with T.C. He might not have good intentions to recruit us in." Cheng Mo said in a deep voice: "So we can't let him know about our actions."
"Then should we wait until Chuxue comes back? This will be foolproof." Li Jianjian asked.
Cheng Mo glanced at him: "But if Chuxue came... would he still dare to show his fox's tail?"
"This... I probably don't dare." Li Jianjian said helplessly: "Miss Chuxue is so famous in T.C. If that guy knew that Chuxue was also in this area today, maybe he wouldn't dare to invite us in."
Cheng Mo did not agree immediately, because from the beginning, she could not contact Chuxue with intercom headphones, which means she was also in trouble.
So will the shadows that led to Chuxue before have anything to do with the owner of the manor?
He led her away and invited her to the manor. Maybe this was a set-up plan.
As for T.C's goal of doing this, it is probably his own.
If this is true, this trip must be very dangerous, but if you don’t enter the tiger’s den, you can’t get a tiger’s son. This mission was originally intended to investigate the hidden dangers in this area.
Thinking of this, Cheng Mo looked at Li Jianjian: "This is the case, why don't I go to investigate first, you are waiting for Chuxue's contact here."
"Boss Cheng, how do you use superpowers by yourself?" Li Jianjian laughed and said, "With Xiao Chuxue's ability, I don't need to contact me specifically? I understand. You are afraid that I will encounter danger. I am so honored~ I was actually cared for by Boss Cheng."
"Get out." Then a certain bastard was kicked out.
...
Not long after, Cheng Mo and Li Jianjian carefully walked through the luxurious corridor and headed to the grocery room to the west.
Fortunately, there are no monitoring facilities inside the corridor. It is estimated that because there are so many installations and they cannot be maintained, so only the exterior walls are available.
The corridor was empty, but as the owner of the manor said, there were no servants here, and the advantage was that they made it easier for their secret operations.
"That's the grocery room, right?" Li Jianjian pointed to a thick door, which was the door at the end of the west corridor.
"It should be that it is different from those ordinary room doors."
Cheng Mo squinted his eyes and felt it for a moment, frowned and said, "...I didn't feel any abnormality."
Li Jianjian couldn't help but say, "Is there really a problem only at night, right?"
"We can go in and take a look first." Cheng Mo was about to raise his foot and go forward after he said that.
"Please wait a moment, two." A weak voice suddenly sounded behind them.
Cheng Mo and Li Jianjian were both startled and immediately turned around and put on their posture, but looked at each other when they saw the person coming clearly.
"It's you?"
The person who came here was Lilith, the only maid here.
Cheng Mo looked at her scrutinizedly. She had appeared behind the two of them silently before. Now she is, is this girl also capable of supernatural powers?
"Don't be nervous, you two, I was not sent by the master." Lilith said hurriedly when she saw their vigilant reaction.
"How did you follow us silently?" Cheng Mo asked in a deep voice.
"Huh... I didn't follow you two, I just happened to want to come here to take a look." Lilith said softly: "As for silentness... I think it may be because I am born with a low sense of existence. People often say that I always appear suddenly."
Cheng Mo frowned slightly. The fluctuations of the heart power of this woman were indeed very weak. If she weren't really peaceful, she would be good at disguising her.
"So why do you suddenly want to come here and take a look?"
"Because I guess you might come here," Lilith explained: "I didn't eavesdrop on your conversation with the master, but I probably know that his invitation to you may have a bad purpose, because I saw the master and a few masked men secretly fiddling with something in the grocery room before."
"And I vaguely heard something like 'dream', 'sanitizer', etc... I guess these things are used to deal with someone."
"Today, the master who has never liked strangers actually took the initiative to invite you to the manor, and I became suspicious. Now it seems that he really wants to use the medicine in the grocery room to deal with you."
Li Jianjian said in surprise: "I'll go, this guy is so slutty? He actually wants to use drugs to deal with us..."
Cheng Mo was silent and calm: "So why do you want to help us?"
Lilith looked around and then lowered her voice and said, "This is not a good place to speak, why don't we talk in another place?"
