Chapter 97 97. Gift

The innkeeper turned around and left as if he didn't see anything.

Gunter O'Dimm naturally sat next to Lan En, as if he were an old friend for many years.

But it is a pity that the demon hunter's attitude has always been cold.

"Judging from your clothes, I always thought you didn't have much money."

Using a calm tone to say harsh words, Lan En's performance is enough to make any normal person angry.

But Gunter Odim cannot be called a normal person in terms of his mentality or from a more fundamental point of view.

"These days are indeed difficult, but you are a big customer, Lan En. If I can negotiate a good deal with you, it will be worth all the treasure I have to spend."

"I'm flattered, Glass Boy. Let me make sure, is this a 'please'?"

After receiving a positive reply from the other party, Lan En picked up the red wine on the plate, greeted the other party, and drank it all in one gulp.

After drinking, Lan En wiped his mouth and prepared to continue talking.

Although the little girl didn't understand why, because she recognized her identity as a servant, she quickly stuffed it into two mouthfuls and prepared to get up and pack her things.

Lan En supported his chin with his hand, tilted his head and looked at the other person.

"It's time for me to leave. I left a gift in your room."

It's getting more and more miserable to feel like I'm being targeted by this "thing".

Lan En's tone was calm and flat, as if he had seen the pitfalls the other party had laid in his words.

With a "pop" sound, the apple fell to the ground and smashed, and the noise in the restaurant started again.

"It doesn't count."

The pair of cat eyes narrowed slightly, looking in the direction of the door.

"Send something? Oh! Yes, just after dark, a hotel clerk brought a book. Isn't that what you bought?"

"Alia, has anyone brought anything?"

"It's doing business with people like you that makes me feel that life has meaning, Lan En. I'm bored to death by those guys who seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, choose the best solution all the way, but in the end they fail completely!"

It is unrealistic to escape at this moment. As long as the other party doesn't want to, then even if you turn into withered bones, you won't be able to escape from the other party. You might as well just comply with his wishes.

"For your courage, I can let you ask a question."

"whatever."

"I'll spare you this time, Lan En. You are not qualified to explore the inner workings of a 'thing' like me, at least not yet."

The little girl is struggling to get up.

"Hurry up and eat. Where is the book? Point it to me."

"Alia, pack your things after eating, we have to change places."

"No, you don't want to know."

"If I want to ask a critical question, I need to know critical information, but if I already have enough critical information, why should I risk asking you?"

Lan En put the dinner plate on the table and looked around with a pair of cat eyes.

Power and money are not as good as killing the mastermind behind the scenes, which will make him feel more comfortable.

In the hotel, the firelight of the fireplace was swaying, and a creature that could tamper with reality became Lan En's question-and-answer machine under the authority of "one question."

The moment Lan En asked this question, everything except him and Gunter O'Dem stopped.

Everyone in the hotel maintained their movements for the previous second, the apples falling on the dinner plate stagnated in the air, the flames of the fireplace, and the shadows generated by the flames were all frozen into the appearance of teeth and claws.

"If I say yes, will you stop doing it?"

After a long time, my shoulders suddenly relaxed.

Lan En raised his eyebrows.

I found the target under a pile of clothes.

Lan En knew that he did not have the broad vision of the other party, so the best way was to stay away.

"Oh? Why not?"

Power, money, strength, life span. It seems that all desires can be refined into a question at this moment, and then input into this question and answer machine, and then the answer can be obtained.

"I'll answer your last question. Just as you thought, I'll give you a name for the thugs. Ubank, the leader of the cannibal camp, a Skellige. Commanded dozens of people in Velen.

Dadi robs young children, contacts ships, and manages relationships. How can he be called the 'mastermind behind the scenes'?"

"whatever?"

While looking at each other, Lan En felt that for a moment, he saw the other person's eyeballs turn into a rich pure black.

An ordinary hard-cover tome, the author has a long name, and the honor is "tenured professor of the Department of Business, Oxenfurt University".

He shook his head helplessly and walked back to the room carrying the dinner plate.

The other party shook his head slightly.

Even Lan En, who had been mentally prepared, could not help but lean back at this moment, his eyes looking horrified.

The bald businessman in shabby clothes just looked at Lan En and was silent for two seconds.

Half of Gaunt O'Dimm's face was buried in the shadows. The flickering firelight made it difficult to tell whether the smile on his face was a ferocious smile? Or a smile?

"I originally wanted to ask you who was behind this slave trade incident. But after thinking about it, I decided not to."

"Doesn't it count as a contract?"

"Then do you want to give up this opportunity?"

This is Gunter O'Dimm's gift? A book about business knowledge?

After frowning for a moment, Lan En placed the book casually on the table and stopped touching it.

After arriving in the room, Aaliya was lying on the bed exhausted.

Although it was only two seconds, during the frozen time, Lan En felt that his sense of time had been completely confused.

Aaliya began to devour the food, and Lan followed her fingers.

With that said, he stood up, whistled in the frozen time, walked towards the door and left.

Those who call themselves "businessmen" applaud.

"This is a complex and tight organizational chain. If my description is not clear enough, you can just give me the names of several buyers and the names of the people in charge. To some extent, they can all be considered part of this organization.

There is a part of the 'behind the scenes'. But you can get around the key person who builds the entire buying and selling relationship by turning around and around."

At this moment, Lan En, who had already started to gather his clothes, suddenly stopped what he was doing.

The creature wearing a human face showed an intriguing smile, and after Lan En showed an indifferent chuckle, the arc became wider and wider.

"What you said when you left before made me think that I would encounter trouble on the way to Vizima, but you only showed up now. In other words, what I am going to encounter next is the real thing that can make you

Trouble signing a contract with me?"

"Oh my God, stop?!"

"Wonderful logical analysis."

Gunter O'Dimm asked happily.

Lan En sat on the chair blankly.

From beginning to end, those profound secrets never moved his mind.

""The Principles of Business and How to Use the Principles"?"

"I have a hunch that the time when we sign the contract won't be too far away."

"No, what I want to ask is - what exactly are you?"

The work assigned to her today was indeed not light. At this moment, Stark, who loves to jump and jump, was completely wilted.

"Because I don't know how to ask this question. I don't know the structure of this criminal organization, so there is a high probability that my question will not be aimed at a certain person."

At the right time, there was a knock on the door.

Lan En pulled up his hood to cover his face and prepared to ask who was outside the door.

But before he could say anything, there was a "Bang!"

The wooden door was blown open!
