It was a little later, in the suite on the east wing of the main building of Lane Manor. "Lord Thomas." After bowing respectfully to the blond middle-aged man, the butler responsible for entertaining the two Lyons spoke: “After the two guests entered the exhibition building, they first tied up the third person and placed him on the sofa, and then entered the genealogy hall and stayed there for nearly six hours. We did some statistics based on your request and found that they have reviewed almost seventy records, mainly covering the past sixty years, covering six aspects: chronology, memorabilia, genealogical records, missing and deceased lists, and industrial reports. …” Forget about everything else, why is there still a missing and dead list? "etc!" When he heard this, the blond middle-aged man frowned, raised his hand to signal the butler to stop reporting, and proactively asked: "Are you sure they were always on the first floor and didn't go upstairs or leave?" "Yes."
The older butler nodded and said: "After learning their purpose, I locked the second and third floors. I kept the keys close to my body and asked two maids to serve in the tea room. I also assigned a servant to clean the fallen leaves in the yard. They If you leave, you will be discovered immediately.” That must have really never left... Seeing the old butler's determined look, the blond middle-aged man couldn't help but frown. So... am I overthinking? Are they really here to recognize their relatives? But if they are just here to recognize their relatives, then their combination is too strange, right? … After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure out what these three people were doing. The middle-aged man had no choice but to lower his head and look at the visitor registration form at hand with a frown. The daughter of the Minister of Defense, the new employees of the Cleanup Bureau, and the gangsters who participated in the assassination of the princess, none of these three families can deal with them. Especially the daughter of the Minister of Defense. Her father was a reformist in the military, and he was also the first senior military official to lean towards the princess. Before he took office, he had always been thinking about leveraging his own arms business. In this assassination incident, those damn gangsters deliberately used weapons leaked from their own arms companies. They probably saw this contradiction and wanted to hand the knife to the Minister of Defense. The situation was not what he expected. Under his family's influence, the members of the task force were originally prepared to ignore this clue. However, after the daughter of the Minister of Defense joined, she immediately proposed to investigate the source of the weapons. Fortunately, Sir Bobby reacted quickly and used his wife's birthday as an excuse to invite a large number of old nobles to the banquet. At the banquet, he described the investigation as a signal that the princess was ready to attack the old nobles, temporarily suppressing the progress of the investigation. And if he hadn't played such a trick, holding back the Minister of Defense's daughter and leaving enough time to clear up evidence and people, his own arms company would have been severely bitten this time, and a huge amount of money would have been taken away. A piece of fat! When he thought of the policewoman who had sent out more than a dozen investigation letters and would not let go of her, the blond middle-aged man's complexion darkened slightly. Her father is a ferocious and black old dog, and this woman has the same style. Once she bites someone, she won't let go! As for the remaining two people, let alone the rebels. Their original slogan was to oust the incompetent royal family and transfer their main rights, while also limiting the power of the nobles and their seats in parliament. But recently, for some unknown reason, these gangsters have suddenly become ten times more radical, even threatening that the royal family and nobles are like lice in their crotches, and sooner or later they will be caught and pinched to death! Now they are already their mortal enemies! And the cleanup bureau... He tapped his fingers lightly on the registration form on the table, and after making a heavy mark with his nails on Leon Lane's name, the blond middle-aged man waved his hand to signal the butler to leave, then took the registration form and left the suite, passing through the connected arch. Dao went to the main building of the manor.
"Thomas?" After hearing the knock on the door, the young man who was looking at the report form on the desk raised his head in surprise, and said to the middle-aged man at the door with a smile on his face: "It's so late and you haven't rested yet? Are you such a hard-working person?" "Sir Bobby." After saying hello, facing a young man who looked to be in his twenties and no more than thirty at most, Thomas, who had a lot of wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, bent down and saluted with unusual respect: "You are ridiculous. Compared with you, my diligence is really insignificant." "Haha, it's different." After greeting him to come in, the young man smiled and said: "The reason why I am diligent is because I am ready to take another step forward. Not only do I want to inherit the title of my eldest brother, I also want to sit in the position of the head of the family. And now you sit in the seat of elders, manage one-sixth of the family's wealth, and also serve as the representative for foreign negotiations. Being able to hold on to these is already beyond the limit of your ability. Why are you still working so hard? " "..." Looking at Thomas, who was slowly sweating on his brows, the young man smiled and said: "Thomas, there seems to be a lot of things that have gone wrong in the things you are responsible for recently? You are still working so late... Is the task I assigned you too heavy? Do you need help to relieve you of the burden?" "Bobby Pavilion... Sir Bobby... please listen to my explanation..." After tasting the deep dissatisfaction from the other party's words, the blond middle-aged man quickly said: “I have really worked hard on the Charles Department Store matter. Under normal circumstances, that company would definitely be dragged down. But no one expected that old Charles would come up with the idea of selling goods for compensation, and tied all the victims who were supposed to attack the department store to his side, so that the municipal government did not dare to take action. And after I found out that the situation was not right, I did not just wait, but immediately contacted the other two companies for support, and even tried to invite a holy spirit. As long as the holy spirit caused a large-scale casualty incident, the Highway Administration would have an excuse to intervene and stop the promotion of Charles Department Store, but the Cleanup Bureau just happened to..." "Okay, stop explaining." Bending his knuckles and knocking on the table twice, after stopping Thomas' explanation, the young man said calmly: "Of course I know that you are just unlucky, not really stupid and hopeless, otherwise you would not have the opportunity to stand here and explain to me." Looking at the blond middle-aged man who subconsciously let out a long breath, the young man narrowed his eyes slightly, and emphasized in a slightly cold voice: "But no matter whether you have excusable circumstances or are forced to do so, you still messed up what I asked you to do! Thomas, tell me, how long will it take you to take over Charles Department Store and get what I want? " "Soon! I'll get it soon!" Looking at the young man's narrowed eyes, Thomas couldn't help but tense up, sweating profusely: "The Holy Spirit of the Scale Gold Cult was dealt with by the Cleanup Bureau, and other similar beings were also frightened and dared not take action, so we changed to solving the problem in the way of ordinary people.
The only daughter of the owner of Charles Department Store has been kidnapped by us and is now locked up in the Rose Manor of the Masai Ni family. Although the old man is still holding on, he will probably surrender soon and hand over what you want! " "Is that so?" After recognizing the expression of the blond middle-aged man and confirming that he was not lying or prevaricating himself, Bobby Ryan nodded and said calmly: "Thomas, I said before that to deal with businessmen like him who have climbed up in the storm, whether it is commercial means or administrative suppression, it is not as good as the most direct violent means. You coveted the assets of Charles Department Store, and you were worried about the counterattack from the Chamber of Commerce and the congressmen, so you asked me not to do anything first, but after going around in circles, you ended up back to square one..." Looking at Thomas who was shaking again, the young man couldn't help but shook his head, and said with some disinterest: "Okay, considering that you have been useful in these years, I forgive your stupidity this time, but you'd better make sure you can do what you say, otherwise... don't blame me for not valuing our friendship over the years." "I... about two weeks... no! One week! At most one week, I will definitely get what you want back!" "You'd better be able to." After beating up his subordinates who were not doing their job well, the young man lowered his head and continued to flip through the report of the arms company, and then asked: "By the way, why did you come to me late at night?" "Ah? Good thing! It's good! " After hearing the young man's question, the blond middle-aged man remembered his purpose and hurriedly took two steps forward cautiously, holding the registration form in both hands and placed it on the table. "Lord Bobby, the person with the mark on it is a new employee who has just joined the Cleanup Bureau." A new employee of the Cleanup Bureau? The young man behind the table raised his eyebrows, picked up the registration form and took a look, then said in surprise: "Leon... Ryan? The woman in the Cleanup Bureau actually recruited a new employee from our family?" "No, that person has black hair, and his ancestral home is Ryan County. It should just be the same surname." After briefly explaining Leon's situation, the blond middle-aged man said with some excitement: "But this person came to visit today and said that he suspected that his ancestors might have some connection with the Ryan family, and seemed to want to recognize his relatives. And your "that" ability happens to be able to absolutely control your own bloodline and subordinates, so as long as I list him in the family tree, you can plant a nail in that Cleanup Bureau! " An employee of the Cleanup Bureau... came to me to claim his kinship? After hearing Thomas' words, the young man frowned again, and his fingers began to poke the registration form on the table unconsciously, and he began to wonder if the Cleanup Bureau had discovered something. After all, an employee who had just joined the Cleanup Bureau and was not very strong took the initiative to come to me to claim his kinship and took the initiative to step into the scope of his "power". This was simply a pie in the sky, and the opportunity was a bit too good. But could this good opportunity that came to my door actually be a trap for me? For example... um... this might be good Like lower... After recalling the terrifying record of a certain red-haired woman, the young man couldn't help but curl up his lips slightly, laughing at his own suspicion and fantasy. Setting traps... Why have I been so honest for so many years and almost never used my abilities outside of Ryan's house? With the strength of that woman, as long as she suspected or even targeted him, even the descending true god would be beaten up, and it is possible that he would be killed directly! With my current level, do I deserve to let others spend time setting traps?
"Okay, I'll give you a credit!" After laughing at his own suspicion, the young man finally smiled a little, and said to the middle-aged man with happy eyes: "If you can really accomplish this, let me plant a nail in that cleaning bureau. In addition to stabilizing your position, I can also give you some unimaginable rewards. Except for the youthful appearance, a healthier body, stronger functions, and even extra lifespan can all be given!" "Thank you, Master Bobby! Thank you, Master Bobby!" "Don't thank me, you deserve it." Looking at Thomas, whose face was flushed and full of ecstasy, the young man smiled and said: "If you make a mistake, you should be punished. If you do the right thing, you should be rewarded... But I'm not going to show up directly for this matter." After staring at the blond middle-aged man, the young man grinned and said with a smile: "The fewer people know about my ability, the better, so I'm going to give you some of the power of 'dominance', so that you can have the ability to control Leon and be the 'middleman' between me and him. In the future, you will organize the information he gets from the Cleanup Bureau and present it to me separately, and no one is allowed to see it... Oh, and there's more. ” Raising his hand to the corner of his mouth and making a zipper gesture, the young man looked at the cannon fodder in front of him who was overjoyed, and added with a smile: "I just gave your soul a new order. Once my existence is revealed, your soul will immediately annihilate itself. So when you communicate with that Leon, you'd better be careful with your words. I don't want you to become a shapeless rotten meat because of such a stupid thing as letting the cat out of the bag!" After hearing the young man's warning, Thomas couldn't help but look stern and hurriedly responded. "Know... Know... Lord Bobby, don't worry, I will..." "Okay, no more nonsense." Finally heard a good news, the young man in a good mood lowered his head, continued to work at his desk, and asked: "Thomas, is there any other news? If not, then you should go to work. " "I'll go now! I won't let you down this time! ” Not only did he successfully escape, but he also got a big benefit. The middle-aged blond man with a happy look in his eyes quickly made a promise, then returned to his room and called the housekeeper, and went to find the elder who managed the family members' identities overnight, ready to enter the guy named Leon into the list. However, less than five minutes after he left, a figure in a black coat took advantage of the cover of night and floated all the way from the shadow of the outer wall to the fifth floor, then strangely opened the locked window from the outside and directly entered the bedroom of the middle-aged blond man.
