"I see."

Then an invitation made him climb up from the trash, he stood up tremblingly, and went out to pick up the letter after confirming that there was no one outside.

He opened the envelope and found that it was an invitation letter, which read——

Dear Mr. Marko:

Hello, we have received your postcard.Since the head of the family died in an accident, we need to call a lawyer to transplant the magic seal. We sincerely invite you to help us.

The Gregorian calendar XXXX year X month X day.

—Angelo Brumaire

Attachment: 【Address】

After a cursory glance, Marco closed the letter, realizing that his business had come.

He began to hurriedly adjust his makeup in front of the mirror, and it took a lot of effort to find his palm in the trash, and the hat was simply lost.But it doesn't matter, he quickly washed his hair, and then dried the black hair with a hair dryer.Although life is not very good, but his bathroom is like a woman, there is no shortage of dressing items.

What was reflected on the smooth mirror was a handsome brown-haired boy, no one would know how corrupt this body was.

It's dead man's money, but so what?Marco thought to himself mockingly in front of the mirror.

Marco came to the predetermined place.It was a villa with a huge area, leaning against the sea, overlooking the white cliffs on the other side of the strait.

"welcome."

The first thing Marco saw was the maid, and then a fat man with beards came out of the room.

"Are you the lawyer we invited?"

"Yes."

"I am Angelo. The maid sent the letter in my name." The fat man walked down the steps and gestured to Marco. "Hope she didn't offend you."

"Of course not." Marco nodded, and walked into the seaside villa at the invitation of the master.

The long corridor could not be seen at a glance, and he walked forward for an unknown amount of time before Marco stopped under Angelo's signal.

"It's inside, remember to bring the engraving out." Marco was surprised when he heard this, he remembered that the envelope said their Patriarch was dead.But why in a bedroom?Although he had some doubts, he still walked in with the idea of ​​money first.

This is a teenage boudoir with pink wallpaper dotted throughout.

"They said you came to treat me." A weak red-haired girl lay quietly on the bed and said this to Marco who had just walked in.Her voice was a little weak, as if she was about to lose her breath the next moment.

Marco felt the magic power of the red-haired girl, fragile and powerful.The magic engraving that Angelo was referring to was undoubtedly on the girl's body.

This should be their Patriarch, but why did they say she was dead?Marco is not stupid, he understood why the moment he saw the girl.

The magic seal is the most important thing for a magician family, and almost everyone will covet it.And this girl's body is weak, so she can't keep this engraving at all.

It was like a piece of fat, the guardian closest to her wanted to swallow her in one gulp, and the girl didn't even have a chance to run away.Even if Marco wanted to help, he might not be able to help, because this is the workshop of other magicians.

He didn't think he had the ability to save such a girl, or he might be wanted.After all, the Wuyue family is neither big nor small.Marco was alone, and his related classmates were enemies.His mentor passed away long ago, and his family was also withered.

Angelo hired him in order to obtain the magic engraving completely. Although Angelo didn't say it clearly, as long as he walked in and saw this girl, everything would be understood.

And it's not just Angelo alone, I'm afraid everyone in Wuyue's family is staring at the magic seal in this girl's hand.

This matter is very troublesome. He originally thought it was just a legitimate entrustment.If he knew the truth in advance, Marco would definitely not accept the invitation, but would directly throw the letter into the trash can.

"You lied to me?!" Marco quickly closed the bedroom door, and asked Angelo as he walked out. He was very angry.

"How can you lie?" Angelo explained: "Isn't she already dead? You don't tell me, I don't tell you, as long as you take off her seal, no one will know."

"You're going to kill her?" Marco asked.

"Magicians shouldn't care about these, only benefits." Angelo frowned, and he explained: "Her life has nothing to do with you, you just need to take off my magic seal."

The magic engraving is not something you can just take.This is like an organ that has been deeply embedded in the owner's body.If you act rashly, or kill the holder, it will cause huge damage to the magic seal.

Marco has already guessed that the reason why Angelo hired a lawyer is to let the lawyer take off the engraving completely.

"But it doesn't matter if you kill or not. I just want the magic engraving. If I do a good job, I'm willing to pay a considerable reward for it." Angelo stretched out his big belly, and said with a smile: "Trust me, you can I guarantee that you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life." Although these words were unavoidably exaggerated, they deeply attracted Marco.

Because Marco needs money, he has been in debt for a long time without a job.If it is not cleared, you must use other things to pay off the debt.If you can't do it, you will even be wanted by the legal and political department.

"I..." Marco hesitated for a long time, he stood blankly at the door of the bedroom, struggled for a long time before stepping into the girl's boudoir again.It's just that he didn't talk to the girl, but sat quietly by the bed.

Originally, he thought that earning money from the dead was ironic enough, but he didn't expect that earning money from the living was even darker.

The red-haired girl was lying on the bed, looking out of the window from time to time.Sometimes Marco could catch the eyes of the other party, so he followed the trend and found that the red-haired girl was looking at a flying bird.

The bird was flying freely outside the window, living carefree, fluttering its wings and making melodious calls.The girl's eyes are full of envy, and Marco sees all of this

"Excuse me, what should I call you?" Marco asked.

"Yinka, just call me Yinka." The red-haired girl said timidly, "What about you?"

"You can call me Marco."

There were many portraits around the room, and one of them caught his attention the most.It's not that that painting is so good, on the contrary, this painting is like a graffiti compared to other scrolls.

It was a red flying bird with disordered lines, long tail feathers, and a rock in its sharp claws.Marco barely saw the shape of the painting, obviously the artist was just a child.

This is...Phoenix?The legendary phoenix reborn from the ashes?

This drawing is actually pretty bad, like a [-] year old doodle compared to the others.As soon as Marko saw Inka, a fragile young girl, he knew where the painting came from.
