Chapter 24 Undercurrent
Chapter 24 Undercurrent
Looking at the sky, it was already completely dark. Russell sighed and decided that he would have to stay in this house for one night.
Having asked Kaneki to lift up the iron door that had fallen to the ground and close it loosely, Russell sat cross-legged on the bed and began to think about the next strategy.
First of all, I must find a way to spend the money on me. Fortunately, Russell is alone and his family doesn't have much property. I carry my bank card and [Flesh and Blood Demon] (gold) with me, otherwise I don't know how I would be robbed.
Thinking of this, Russell's face suddenly froze, as if he had not touched the corpse.
"Forget it. Even if someone touched the body, it might still be confiscated." Russell could only comfort himself in his heart.
Putting aside the random thoughts in his mind, Russell silently calculated how to spend the 370,000 yuan on hand.
First of all, you need to set aside 70,000 for daily expenses.
It would be more reasonable to use the remaining 300,000 to purchase materials to make a prop card to enhance Yuichir's combat power or to use it for self-defense.
After a while, Russell had an idea in his mind, but he had consumed too much mental energy today and it was not suitable for card making.
"I'd like to trouble you to keep watch tonight." Russell said to Yoriichi Tsugakuni and Kaneki.
He was not a fool, so just because something like this happened, he would definitely not take it lightly while meditating alone tonight.
Anyway, with his mental strength, as long as there is no fighting, it is more than enough to keep the two of them alive for one night.
At the same time, in a dark shadow in Xingfuyuan Community, a tall and thin figure said to another person: "Brother, should we rush in and tie up that guy? Old Gu's matter is definitely related to him."
The sturdy figure known as the boss slapped the tall and thin man in the face and said, "Idiot, how many times have I told you that we need to keep a low profile? Are you sure this guy is not a bait put forward by the Card Master Association?"
"And that idiot today! Who let him act on his own?! If he hadn't contacted us, he would have ruined the president's plan. Ten lives wouldn't be enough to pay him back!"
"Then boss, are we just going to let this go?" the tall and thin man asked hesitantly, covering his face.
The sturdy figure sneered when he heard this: "If he offends our Qiling Society, he will suffer the consequences! Let's observe him for a few days to see if he is just bait."
Just then, a beam of light shone over. It was the security guard of Happy Home.
The security guard looked suspicious and said, "What are you two doing here?"
Such a big incident happened in the community this afternoon, so the security guards will definitely patrol to show their respect.
But if you really encounter criminals, don't expect them to be of any help.
The sturdy figure was illuminated by the flashlight, and his shiny bald head was gleaming with an oily luster. He froze and said slowly, "We... We are here for a night run. Let's go now, let's go now."
After saying this, he took the tall and thin man and ran out of the Xingfuyuan community.
The security guard naturally noticed that something was wrong with the two of them, but he was just an ordinary person with a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan, so why would he risk his life?
"See you tomorrow, Jiang Nanxi." On the evening of the next day, after school, Russell said hello to Jiang Nanxi and hurried to the real estate agency to find a new residence.
"Mr. Luo, do you have any requirements for housing?" the real estate agent asked Russell with a smile on his face.
Although Russell looked very young, the agent did not look down on him.
After all, there should be fewer idiots in a world with extraordinary beings. Apart from Du Heng, Russell seems to have never seen a truly brainless person.
Ordinary people are very discerning. After all, you never know if you might have offended the card maker.
Russell pondered his needs silently in his heart. After a long while, he said aloud, "It's in Ning'an District. Is there any single-family house? It would be best if the surrounding area is quiet."
That’s right, Russell plans to look for a detached house this time. After all, Aunt Xu, who lived opposite his previous residence, is still in the hospital.
Being quieter would also make it easier for him to think as a card maker.
The agent's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Yes, yes, there are two places that meet your requirements."
As he spoke, the agent started to operate on his phone. After a while, he handed the phone to Russell. "This is the first place. There are business districts around it. It is quite popular and very convenient for travel."
Russell looked at the photos on his phone silently. For ordinary people, this residence would be really good, but Russell now has Pidgeot, so he can rely on Pidgeot for traveling.
Seeing that Russell didn't say anything, the agent began to introduce the second residence: "This is the second place. The good thing is that the landlord has taken care of the water, electricity and network. You just need to bring your bags and move in. But it is a bit remote."
"Student, which one do you think is more suitable?"
At the moment, I don’t know if I have been targeted by the Qi Ling Society. Logically speaking, it is better to choose the first one. After all, the Qi Ling Society should not dare to take action in a downtown area.
Just, do you want to gamble?
After thinking for a moment, Russell made his choice: "Let's go with this second one. Can we sign the contract today?"
"It turns out that there is no way to put the lives of passers-by into danger like this." Russell sighed inwardly.
Besides, no one except Jiang Wang knows about his change of residence, so it should be no problem.
The agent felt a little bit sorry when he heard this. He hoped that Russell would choose the first one because the first one would get a higher commission. However, it was a good thing to be able to open a business, so he cheered up and said, "Okay, please follow me, classmate."
After a while, Russell signed the contract. The monthly rent was four thousand, with a deposit of one and a third of the rent paid.
After signing the contract, the agent drove Russell to his new residence.
The house was worth its price. A two-story detached house covering an area of about 100 square meters appeared before him.
When I walked into the house, there was not much dust. It was obvious that the landlord often hired someone to clean it.
"Then Mr. Luo, I'll leave first." After handing the key to Russell, the agent left.
Just as Russell was walking around his house, a bald man was sweating profusely in the house next door.
The sound of the car when the agent arrived just now aroused the bald man's curiosity. He looked out the window and saw Russell.
"What's going on? Am I exposed?" The bald man was full of suspicion at this moment. He had just gone to investigate with the tall and thin man last night, and today Russell moved next door to him.
This made him feel a little irritated and panicked, and after thinking for a moment, he decided to go and see what was going on.
"Ding-ling." The doorbell caught Russell's attention, which made him a little confused. Only Jiang Nanxi and his daughter knew about his move. Could it be that they came to his door?
But I haven’t told them where I’m moving to.
Russell opened the door with doubts, and what came into his sight was a dazzling bald head.
Russell was stunned for a moment before he asked tentatively, "Brother Tiger?"
That’s right, the bald guy is none other than Brother Hu from Duoduo Finance.
When Brother Hu saw Russell, he forced a smile on his face and said, "Long time no see, Luo. I live next door to you. I just saw you and came over to say hello."
Russell was stunned when he heard this. Is it such a coincidence?
But he remained calm on the surface, and just said, "The previous place was too shabby, so I thought about moving to another place when I had some spare money."
Russell was not familiar with Brother Hu, so naturally he could not tell Brother Hu the real reason.
Brother Hu laughed when he heard this: "Please take care of me in the days to come, Luo. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
"Well, walk slowly."
What Russell didn't see was that Tiger's face instantly turned gloomy after he turned around.
