Rochester does not have Clark's favorite red telephone booth, and the system has not installed any communication equipment for the detective agency.

Making a phone call,

This trivial matter in modern society has become a problem now.

Fortunately, there is a public phone in the night watchman's office, which can be used by swiping a card.

The premise is that the time cannot be long, otherwise you will have to pay.

After Qin Nuo dialed the number, he didn't say much and directly told the congressman's secretary his intention.

As expected, the other party refused.

He even threatened to complain to the night watchman headquarters about Qin Nuo's extortion.

It seems that he is unwilling to pay a dime more.

Of course, Qin Nuo is not a good person.

He said frankly that he was a temporary worker and would run away after finishing this job.

It depends on whether to increase the salary.

Even rabbits bite people when they are anxious, although it doesn't hurt.

What about a folk exorcist who has the ability to capture demons alive?

If Senator Andrew was alone, he wouldn't have to care.

But he wasn't.

A wealthy businessman is the second identity of this Senator.

In the middle of the night, I sneaked a demon into your store.

Deal with it, I'll throw another one in two days.

After all this, are you still doing business?

For businessmen, losing money is more painful than losing a piece of meat.

There was silence on the other end of the microphone, and then a voice came out again.

"Up to 1,000 shillings."

"Okay."

The deal was done, and Qin Nuo hung up the phone.

He found Captain Tesla with a red umbrella and handed over the task.

After half a day of solving the abnormal incident, the other party was surprised and more convinced.

This black-haired man who called himself BYD really needed money.

Official institutions are different from civil organizations, and the procedures for handing over tasks are more complicated.

While waiting for the staff to go to the scene to confirm, Qin Nuo mentioned the way to sell demons intentionally or unintentionally.

He didn't expect to get an answer, but Tesla told him that there was such a deal in Rochester.

And the prices of different kinds of demons vary greatly.

Hearing this, Qin Nuo immediately became interested: "Old Te, what are the specific standards? Is it a level division similar to the night watchman CBAS?"

"No."

Tesla didn't care about the name "Old Te" and explained:

"The stronger the demon, the more dangerous it is.

Except for the occasional needs of scientific researchers in the church and the royal family, they will basically be killed on the spot to prevent future troubles.

So the market for powerful demons is not good.

And those with weaker abilities and little threat to ordinary people have a much better market.

For example, demons with hypnotic abilities,

can be used by the Royal Hospital to treat patients with mental illness.

Demons with bad tempers and simple strength,

will be bought by underground boxing rings and fight with human boxers.

When the audience gets tired of watching them, they will be sold to mine owners and continue to mine until they are completely extinct.

There are also demons with confusing words, which are very popular with noble ladies and young ladies.

In the long night, listening to the sweet words of demons while falling asleep, it is said that the sleep quality is particularly good. "

Tesla paused and looked around.

Confirming that other colleagues were not eavesdropping, he lowered his voice and said:

"In addition, there are nobles who like to buy handsome and beautiful humanoid demons and lock them in the basement to play with them at will."

"Not limited to men and women?"

"Yes, as long as they are good-looking, they will accept anyone, and there is no need to worry about pregnancy."

Is this the so-called fucking demon?

Qin Nuo scratched his head.

Foreigners' hobbies are really strange.

Tesla said, looking at the red umbrella with regret: "If you can capture the girl in the white dress, it won't be a problem to sell it for a few thousand shillings."

"According to what you said, isn't it very profitable to catch alien demons?"

Qin Nuo felt that he had found a faster way to make money.

"You have to be alive to spend it."

Tesla, who was as strong as an ox, spread his hands: "When an exorcist encounters a demon, it is basically a fight to the death. It is rare for a demon to be captured alive.

Besides, the appearance of demons is random, and it is even more difficult to encounter individuals that are easy to detain and suitable for ordinary people to entertain."

"Scarcity makes things valuable."

Qin Nuo nodded and pointed at the umbrella in his hand: "How much can this be sold for now?"

"It's not worth much. At least I can't think of any special use for an umbrella."

Seeing that Qin Nuo was going to give it to him, Tesla waved his hands repeatedly:

"The demon trade is a gray industry tacitly allowed by the upper class. It can't be brought out in the open. I tell you that it has broken the rules."

The implication is,

I think you are a talent and very worth recruiting.

Qin Nuo pretended not to understand, and said "Oh" and said no more.

Formal workers are not as comfortable as temporary workers. They can work when they want and leave when they want.

And he has a spirit of contract.

Since he has joined the detective camp, how can he easily switch sides?

NowThe scene became quiet, and the two people, each with their own thoughts, sat and waited blankly.

Until five o'clock in the afternoon,

When Qin Nuo was about to get impatient, the former staff member finally came back.

The situation was confirmed to be true, and the reward could be settled.

The total was 1,300 shillings, and after deducting 30% of the service fee, the remaining amount was 910 shillings.

Converted into gold pounds, that is, 45 pounds and 10 shillings.

After collecting the reward, Qin Nuo asked Tesla for another commission, and then left the night watchman's office.

...

At 7 o'clock in the evening, the city that was noisy all day fell silent.

Every household lit up the light to dispel the darkness brought by the night.

No. 186 Sailor Street, Gray Pigeon Detective Agency.

The four players were having dinner.

The commission during the day seemed not to go smoothly,

Su Mali and Safia swallowed the food mechanically, and there was a hint of fatigue in their eyes.

Qin Nuo on the other side sat cross-legged, holding the newly bought iron pot and pouring noodles into his mouth.

The sound of chewing was obvious, and he had a good appetite.

The hot pasta was full of fragrance, filling the room.

The compressed biscuits were no longer fragrant, and the nutrient solution was too cold.

Magic muffins... is this thing also food?

Dinner ended in a depressing atmosphere.

"Today's task is not easy,"

Su Mali finished drinking the nutrient solution, patted her belly and sighed: "The source of Nick Porter's son's trouble is indeed the alien demon.

Including the nightmares every night are also caused by the alien demon."

"Similar to Freddy in Nightmare on Elm Street?"

Qin Nuo sucked off the last noodle and asked: "You won't be pulled into the dream, right?"

"No."

Su Mali shook her head: "The alien demon is not as strong as Freddy, but it has a deep bond with Nick Porter's son, which caused a lot of energy to be spent on exorcism.

For fear that too much movement will cause irreparable damage to the victim's brain."

The brain is the most amazing organ in the human body.

The structure is not complicated, and it is nothing more than blood vessels, neurons and glial cells when dissected.

The main ingredients are also common carbohydrates, lipids and proteins in nature.

But because it makes up the brain, it becomes the commander-in-chief of all organs and even the entire earth.

Let alone the ultimate three questions of "Who am I? Where do I come from? Where am I going?", no one has answered them so far.

Even the simple question of "Should I eat potatoes and meat or braised chicken for lunch today?" is not clear how it was asked.

"So how did you solve it?"

Roman finished eating the compressed biscuits and said.

"Memory clearing."

Safia said indifferently: "Just like people forgetting Freddy can make this demon lose his ability.

We used memory clearing on the victim and erased a memory."
