  Chapter 100 Tea Bureau

  Mrs. Michel walked between the shelves, introducing to Luke the mysterious props that beginners of occult arts would use, and Wen Lisa was holding a small book behind to record the names and quantities of the goods.

   Without knowing it, I wrote down a few pages and dozens of mysterious props.

   After spending some time, Mihir said to Luke after recommending the last product: "Miss Skylight, these are the mysterious items I have here for beginners, can you see what else needs to be added?"

  Luke's starting point in the field of secret arts is too high, and he has no say in the field of low-level secret arts. Anyway, when Mrs. Mihir was selling her products, she spoke clearly and logically, and she would buy whatever she asked, and she would not suffer much.

   "That's all... I still need a lot of mysterious props in the future, and I will definitely come to disturb your Excellency."

"You can just call me Mrs. Mihir. The address of a member of parliament will always remind me of those troublesome things. Miss Skylight, the goods you want will take some time to prepare. There is a tea kiosk on the roof of this shop. I am lucky enough to Would you like a cup of tea?

   Please rest assured that I have no ill intentions towards you and promise that no one will obstruct you from leaving here. "

  Luke has long seen that Mrs. Mihir has other plans for him, otherwise he would not have thought of playing a closed door.

   As a result, she herself was beaten up and her mental mask was taken away.

  Since Mrs. Mihir is "magnanimous" and wants to build a good relationship, Luke also wants to see what this congressman wants to do.

   "Okay, I'll drink tea with my wife."

  Mrs. Mihir asked Wen Lisa to prepare the mysterious props, then told the followers outside to wait, and then led Luke up the stairs.

  The Whisperer's Mystery House is a three-story building, the first floor is a shop, the second floor is a warehouse, and the third floor is Wen Lisha's residence. On the roof is an open balcony with a gazebo built with trestles and morning glory.

   It is also a very pleasant thing to sit under the gazebo and enjoy the street view of Raging Waves City.

  Mrs. Mihir invited Luke to sit down, and then took out the kettle and tea sets from the cupboard beside him.

  Sweeping the hand in the middle of the table, a fire started to burn. Put on the hob, put on the kettle...

  Mihir made tea seriously, without saying a word.

  Luke also waited patiently.

  The night was very quiet, and you could hear the voices downstairs, Mrs. Mihir's entourage and the patrolling sheriffs were chatting.

   There is also the sound of a carriage passing by.

  The water boils quickly.

   "Do you need sugar?" Mrs. Mihir, who was pouring tea, asked Luke.

"No, thank you!" Luke took the tea that Mrs. Mihir brought to him, and took a sip: "I don't understand tea, but it tastes really good. There must be other things that Madam invited me to drink tea. Now It can be said."

  Mrs. Mihir added a teaspoon of sugar to her tea, then picked it up and stirred slowly.

  "Before talking about my purpose, I have a few questions I want to ask Miss Clear Sky. Of course, you can choose to answer or not."

"Excuse me."

   "Are you from the Brotherhood of Blades?"

Luke took out the silver blade of the Brotherhood of Blades and put it on the table: "This thing was given to me by the Viscount Iscorran. He said that this dagger can help me solve a lot of troubles, but he seems to overestimate the value of holding it. The influence of the Blade Brotherhood."

Mrs. Mihir couldn't help laughing at what Luke said: "It should be said that the trouble you caused is beyond the scope of the Brotherhood of Blades. Can I understand that you have no direct relationship with the Brotherhood of Blades, just a little personal relation."

   "A little bit..." Luke corrected, "Viscount Iskran only wants to use me, and you probably want to use me too."

  Luke spoke so bluntly that Mrs. Mihir took a sip of tea to reorganize what he was going to say.

"Although it is an unpleasant word to use, it is indeed the most concise and appropriate word. When the Council puts a reward on you at two million Reichsmarks, we consider you a criminal; When the reward was set at 100 million Reichsmarks, we thought you were an extremely dangerous criminal.

   And when the government office raised your reward to one billion Reichsmarks, everyone was in awe of you, and everyone wanted to find you and extend an olive branch to you.

  Compared to other people who are still looking for you in the city, I am lucky. "

  Luke drank tea and said with a smile: "Don't you think your thoughts are like making a deal with a demon?"

Mrs. Mihir replied: "There is a demon living in everyone's heart, especially in this city of Raging Waves. Money, power, and vanity constantly impact people's moral bottom line and magnify desires. It is like a hand pushing you behind , so that you have to do things that are cast aside by conscience."

   "You are very self-aware."

   "So I can become a member of the Raging City Council. The second question: Are you going to create a disaster in this city?"

  Luke said frankly: "I don't have this idea, at least there is no reason to create a disaster at this moment. Nu Lei Tower... It was an accident, completely beyond my expectations."

  Mrs. Mihir did not question, and continued to ask: "The third question: Will you leave Raging City for a short time?"

"Won't!"

"My question is over, thank you for your answer. You have already guessed the purpose of my invitation this time... I will cooperate with you, and you will do something for me that I cannot come forward to solve. I will provide you with convenient.

   You can even use my influence to get the city government office to release your arrest warrant. "

  Luke said with a smile: "If I agree to you, why not Iscoran? He is the Blade Brotherhood, and the price must be higher than yours."

   "He also has high demands on you. If you know something about me, you should know that although I am a member of the Council of Raging Waves City, I have no real power.

  No matter how much a group of ladies who don’t understand anything listen to me, it’s the man who makes the final decision at the critical moment. And my husband... he is not interested in politics, all his energy is in his laboratory.

  …”

Mrs. Mihir paused here for a while, and continued after taking another sip of tea: "Some things have happened in the parliament recently. A group of flies usually bite up.

  My father wrote me and asked me to do something for them.

   There are also the lunatics from the Abyss Temple and the detective from the Cape Secret Affairs Bureau who doesn't know what he wants to do.

  I can foresee that a bigger disaster is about to befall this city. Compared with that disaster, the collapse of Nulei Tower is simply a child's play. "

  Luke sighed and said: "I accept your evaluation."

Mrs. Mihir knew that she had said something wrong, and she quickly apologized: "I am not belittling you, Miss Skylight. I can see that you seem to be collecting something, and I am not only able to collect mysterious props for you, my The husband owns a research institute of alchemy and steam machinery.

   Wonder if I can help you? "
