Chapter 39 Success
Li Qiuzhi brought the unconscious debt collector to Lucardo and frowned at the blood on his mouth.
"Mr. Lucard, are you okay? How do you feel?"

"Ahem. I'm fine. Thank you very much for saving me." Lucard coughed twice. Judging from his complexion, it seemed that there was nothing serious and the injury was not severe.

"Are you the Knight of Favonius?"

Lucard slowly stood up leaning against the wall. Apparently, after hearing Li Qiuzhi's self-introduction, he thought that he was the Knight of Favonius on night patrol and had discovered something unusual here and had come here to save him.

"No!" Li Qiuzhi did not put down the person in his hand. He said directly, "Your old friend Sanborn asked me to investigate you. He knew that you lied to him by falsely reporting the price of the goods."

".I see."

He is an adventurer. Lucard was silent for a moment before he sighed and said:
"I am sorry to Sanborn. I didn't expect that I would be saved tonight because of his commission. It's really unpredictable."

"There was really no other way. The Northland Bank was pressing me hard, so I had this evil idea." Lucard said as he felt his face flush and he couldn't even lift his head.

After all, deceiving friends is extremely shameful no matter where it happens.

"Forget it, you should talk to Sanborn about this.

"And I heard what you just said. Mr. Sanborn told me that if you really have difficulties, I can help you. But since you owe money to Northland Bank, I'm sorry that I can't do anything."

Li Qiuzhi looked helpless. This was indeed the case. He accepted the commission just for Mora. Who would have thought that the ultimate goal of the commission was to help Lucar repay the loan? Isn't this a paradox?

Unless Sanborn is willing to pay the money, but how is that possible? The amount of loans used for research and investment cannot be small. Sanborn is just the owner of a fishing tackle store.

"No, thank you very much. It is true that the new fishing gear has just been successfully researched. If you want to mass-produce it, you need to invest a lot of money. I can only go to jail with nothing."

Although Lucard was still unwilling, he could not change this fact.

Without the organization behind Christi and the Northland Bank to mediate, he would soon be sued by the Northland Bank and would unsurprisingly be sentenced to use his property to pay off his debts and then go to jail.

"Well, before you go to jail, you should accompany me to Mr. Sanborn to explain the situation clearly. That way, my commission will be fulfilled."

Although Li Qiuzhi saved him, he did not sympathize with him. After all, he was a guy who deceived his friends, and it was hard for Sanborn to trust him so much.

".Uh, I'm going to jail soon, is it okay if I don't go?" Lucard really didn't have the face to go.

Li Qiuzhi put his hand on the hilt of the sword tied to his waist and said in a threatening tone:

"What do you think?"

"Well, well, okay then."

Lucard felt his legs go weak even as he leaned against the wall, and his voice was trembling.

Bringing Lucard to Sanborn's fishing tackle shop, Li Qiuzhi was really not interested in watching the embarrassing scene of the two old men.

He asked Sanborn to get a thick hemp rope, then found a secret place to trap the debt collector like a dumpling, and then slapped him awake.

Christie felt a little dizzy and wanted to open her eyes, but she heard a voice in her ear.

"What is your name?"

"Christy."

Christie subconsciously said her name, then woke up immediately with a strange feeling.

He remembered that he should be in the battle, oh. Yes, he was knocked unconscious. Christi opened his eyes with difficulty, and sure enough, the person in front of him was the bastard who knocked him unconscious. Ah, I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I have brought shame upon you.

He also found himself trapped in a corner outside some house. Could it be that this guy wanted to force the Fatui to reveal the secrets within the Fatui?
But, how would a small person like me know?

"What do you want to do?" Christie looked at Li Qiuzhi warily.

Li Qiuzhi squatted down and looked at Christie, trying to show his friendliness and said:

"Please relax, Mr. Christi. To be honest, a kind person like me is very opposed to killing people to silence them.

"Without the mask, you still look very young. You still have a lot of time in the future. As long as I don't tell anyone and you don't tell anyone, no one will know what happened tonight. You just need to go back and say that Lucard didn't want to, right?"

Without that kind of condescending gaze, Christi relaxed a little. When he heard Li Qiuzhi's words, his Adam's apple moved and he swallowed.

He seemed to have a point.

"What do you want to do?" Christie asked resignedly.

Seeing that his evil plan had succeeded, Li Qiuzhi smiled and said:
"Look, no matter what I say, you'll probably have some concerns. How about you provide me with help when I need it? That way, we'll all be family, so you don't have to worry about me betraying you, right?"

"Sorry, I will always be loyal to Her Majesty the Queen!"

Christi had a calm expression on his face. He didn't expect that this bastard actually wanted to shake his loyalty to Her Majesty the Queen. His intentions were truly sinister.

Fortunately, he was professionally trained.

"I won't ask you to betray the Queen. Just treat us as friends. When I need you, just provide me with some inside information about your Fatui. I promise that I will never let you do anything that goes against the will of the Queen of Winter. How about that?"

Li Qiuzhi smiled. These Fatui were quite loyal to the Queen of Winter Kingdom. He had no choice but to take a step back.

As expected, as Li Qiuzhi retreated, Christi became a little unsure. He was still young and wanted to serve the Queen.

As long as he is not asked to do anything to harm Her Majesty the Queen, there is nothing wrong with him just agreeing to it verbally.

Christi's inner struggle was also reflected on her face. This corner outside the house was very quiet. The house was probably a warehouse and there was no one inside.

After a while, Christi, whose hair was light blonde under his hood, took a deep breath and said calmly:
"Okay, I agree to your request."

Now he had no way to disobey Li Qiuzhi. There was no way he could refuse to agree, even if he had the sacrificial knife in his hand.

"Very good, I will help you untie the rope now."

Li Qiuzhi smiled happily, then began to untie the hemp rope on Christi's body, and asked casually in the process:

"Christy, how did you do that stealth skill?"

This is Li Qiuzhi's real purpose. It doesn't matter whether Christi, the Fatui's debt handler, agrees to help him or not. He just wants this stealth skill.

But asking him directly will most likely cause him to resist, but if you first make a more difficult request and he agrees, then this will probably be fine.

If he doesn't agree, Li Qiuzhi can also step back and ask for this skill.

It would have been rude of Christi to not be tactful at that point, but to Li Qiuzhi's surprise he agreed so easily.

Wow, it seems that although the sun is not shining today, Li Qiuzhi is still lucky~
