Restarting the myth.

Chapter 142 Borrowing money is not the purpose, establishing a debt relationship is the purpose
A string of question marks flashed across Wayne's mind. He suspected that Megan had sent the invitation to the wrong person. If he remembered correctly, Auston had never taken the initiative to talk to him.

A sudden invitation...

I get it. The social scum has not changed his original intention. He has acquired the cement barrel factory and is going to target him, the little white flower!
After Megan left, Wayne quickly returned to the study and placed the invitation in front of Sphynx with a serious face.

"Teacher, what do you think?"

"???"

Xi Fei also had a string of question marks in her mind, and she read the invitation letter over and over again: "Then just join. He won't eat you up."

Wayne widened his eyes. He couldn't do it, but the big star under him could!

Seeing the student's defensive look, Xi Fei smiled and waved her hand: "I also have an invitation letter. When the sister is present, he won't dare to embarrass you."

The stockings market was booming, and Healy's clothing brand 'Healy Valentine' opened up the London market in one fell swoop, becoming a fashion benchmark sought after by upper-class ladies.

The factory that produces stockings, including the nylon patent, is owned by the Landau family company. Putting aside their marital relationship, Auston and Healy are business partners and naturally received the invitation.

"So, this is a formal business meeting?"

"if not?"

"I thought the party was at the cement barrel processing factory by the River Tame," Wayne complained sharply.

"No, we've already taught him a lesson. He won't dare to embarrass you again." Xifei was overjoyed and took a step back to watch. It was quite interesting to see these two people fighting.

"Teacher, I still don't understand. If it's a formal event, why did you invite me?"

Wayne was very puzzled. It wasn't that he didn't want to go to a formal event, but he had no business dealings with Austin. It would be too much for the other party to just look at him, so there was no need to invite him to a formal occasion.

"Well, maybe there are other reasons."

Xifei pondered for a moment, then said with a smile: "The Landau family is dwindling. Putting aside those useless distant relatives, you, as my student, are one of the very few people I can trust."

Wayne was even more confused. He admitted that what Healy said made sense. After all, the future heir of the Landau family would depend on him. Aston would not always be at odds with him. Sooner or later, he would respectfully call him son-in-law.

But am I giving up too quickly? Are you really not going to hold on any longer?

If Veronica was pregnant, this behavior would be tantamount to raising the white flag of surrender three to five years in advance.

Too fast, the other side of the sea hasn’t surrendered yet!
Wayne suspected that there was something fishy going on. Judging from his own experience, the invitation letter was not as simple as it seemed. But Healy swore that it was a promise, so he could not continue to speak ill of the other party's husband and could only be on guard.

"By the way, teacher, I have some information for you."

Wayne said, "The detective agency reported a few days ago that the Moonlight Church is planning to build a new base, but is in urgent need of funds and is looking for someone to take advantage of them."

Xifei's face darkened. "I know about this matter. It has been decided. The Free Mage Alliance mediated and acted as a guarantor for the Moonlight Church."

It is not difficult to tell from Healy's expression that this matter is very complicated, involving many parties and aspects, and the big cake of Windsor has to redivide its sphere of influence again.

The Church of Nature was severely wounded by the Dark Knights and could not hold on to its base. In all likelihood, they would have to cut flesh from them.

"Teacher, since we belong to the same Life Alliance, there shouldn't be any problem, right?" Wayne asked tentatively.

Xifei shook her head and said nothing. The Life Alliance was established to fight against the belief in darkness and death, and everyone was still minding their own business internally. Although they seemed to be in harmony on the surface, competition always existed.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have snatched Wayne from the Moonlight Church.

"Perhaps it has something to do with the appearance of the Death Knight..."

Xifei smiled bitterly: "Add to that the Dark Knight and the increasingly active Hell Evil God. The royal family does not want to consume their own power and can only delegate power to the church. Congratulations to the Moonlight Church. They seized this rare opportunity."

After listening to a few sentences, Wayne had another question: "Since the Free Mage Alliance is mediating, why don't they provide funds, or even a loan?"

There is a saying that goes, borrowing money is not the purpose, establishing a debt relationship is the purpose.

With this relationship, the Free Mage League, no, the royal family can easily give orders to the Moonlight Church.

Xifei shook her head. "Perhaps it's due to something within the Free Mage Alliance. The chaotic beliefs have meant that everyone in the alliance has their own thoughts..."

Teacher, this has nothing to do with whether your faith is confused or not. You are bringing in your own agenda again.

Look at the card before you speak, and then look at your saint best friend. Your beliefs are single and pious, and you each have your own thoughts.

Wayne had an understanding of the general situation, but then he lost interest. He was just a silver wizard, a small wave that went with the flow. What use was it for him to know all the inside stories? He didn't even have the qualifications to add to his troubles.

----

Wayne House.

Wayne got out of the car and handed the invitation to Fla, asking him to arrange his schedule and remind him to attend a business party on the 14th.

It was still early, so Wayne took some time to learn swordsmanship with Valkyrie. After taking a shower, he returned to the study alone.

He was doing three things at once: reading a book to recharge himself, calling on the fire element to find a new base for his fellow villagers, and sensing the silver cross in his body.

Xifei believes that in the Silver Cross, God is the most important, and is related to faith, guiding the magician's future path;

The free wizard Dean Schrödinger did just the opposite. He put God at the end of the Silver Cross. Faith cannot be single, otherwise it will affect the future path.

Wayne said that he would not believe in one side or the other, but he still couldn't help but lean towards Planck's point of view. From his own point of view, the essence of life is too strong. In the pursuit of balance, only having one goddess cannot satisfy him at all.

He already had the three goddesses he had planned for: nature, sun, and moonlight. The sun was also easy to deal with. After wearing Valkyrie, the sun power stored in the Book of Greed was enough for him to use. However, the moonlight...

"It's not impossible. Establish a debt relationship with Chris. She even changed into a short skirt last night. If I ask her to help steal a holy object, she shouldn't refuse."

Wayne stroked his chin and started dreaming before it got dark.

He assumed that the power of moonlight was already in his hands, and that the thighs of the three goddesses could be held firmly, and then he took out the dark ring from the drawer.

Planck said that the dark ring could help Wayne gain the dark faith. The Book of Greed had tasted this ring, so joining the faith would not be a problem.

The Dark Ring is no problem, and the Death Knight's Shadow Nightmare is easier to use.

In the Book of Greed, the two little eyeballs of Nature and Death are the brightest, especially Death, which is the brightest one.

"Can you handle hugging five goddesses at once?"

Wayne was in hesitation. The Silver Cross was about balance. The more people he clung to, the higher the requirements for his life, space and self would be. Especially life, the countless four elements. His scalp tingled just thinking about it.

Moreover, after being promoted to a silver wizard, the appetite of the Book of Greed has become bigger and bigger, and the consumption of the four elements will be an astronomical figure.

"I can handle it, but my fellow villagers can't!"

Wayne sighed deeply, gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, deciding to make things difficult for his fellow villager.

I believe it!

Aim for the five goddesses, and contact Planck someday to ask him to return the ancient silver coin.

After confirming the target, Wayne looked at the small eyeballs representing heaven and hell. For example, he meant that if he hugged five goddesses at once, it would inevitably be that there would be more yin than yang. How about borrowing two rough men to neutralize it?
Wayne knew that this idea was wrong and his fellow villagers couldn't stand it, but he couldn't help but get excited: "It's all because of the Book of Greed. I'm getting more and more greedy now."

Wayne suppressed his desire and postponed this issue. He first got the ancient silver coin to see what his limit was. If he still had some energy left, he would still have time to join heaven and hell.

Wayne picked up the phone and called Dean Plank.

Hello, Schrodinger, how do you know I'm silver?

Wayne put the phone back. He couldn't make the call. His breakthrough into the silver stage had already shocked Sphy. He believed in his teacher but didn't have such high trust in Planck.

"We have to wait a little longer. I'll contact him after the party on the 14th of next month..."

Wayne rubbed his temples. He couldn't stop practicing. He couldn't be idle for the next half month. His practice required a lot of resources. He kept creating elemental restricted areas in Lundan. He couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't be fined. "It's time to take action against the fellow villagers outside the city!"

Boom boom boom!
"Wayne, time to eat!"

Willy's energetic voice came from outside the door. Wayne came to his senses and found that he had been thinking for an hour and a half and had completely missed the pick-up today.

"coming."

Wayne shouted, put away the dark ring, stood up and left the desk: "It shouldn't be a big problem, I'm ready to borrow money."

……

After dinner, the tutoring class started on time.

Chris carefully quoted a price of 10 shillings.

"You sold yourself for only 10?"

Wayne's eyes widened, and he found that Chris' eyes were even wider than his. He changed his words and said, "I mean, who am I looking down on? I'm famous for being righteous. You've already asked for it. 10 is too little. Please add a little more."

Chris was both angry and amused. She did not expose the pervert's little trick, although she was indeed very pleased. She said, "Wayne, $10 is already a lot. Although the wind can't bring money, it can blow it away. The one who cooperates with you is the Moonlight Church, not me."

"It doesn't matter. If the church doesn't pay me back, I'll come after you then."

Wayne looked nonchalant and joked, "You are an accountant in the detective agency and you get paid every month. If you work for me for a lifetime, you can just pay off your debts and even earn enough money for your coffin."

Chris was so confused that she looked at Wayne with a reproachful look. She still said the same thing: the situation was too complicated. Veronica and Willy were both good girls, and she didn't want to get involved.

Also, she advised Wayne to close the net quickly and just pick up one, otherwise he would have no friends in the future if he played with two women at the same time.

After a discussion between the two, Wayne raised the price and Chris bargained, and Wayne decided to invest 18.

"When I go back and tell the priestess, she will prepare an agreement. Then I will have to trouble you to go to the library to sign it..."

"No need. There are too many people around. I am the pastor of the Church of Nature. If someone sees me, I will be suspected of collaborating with the enemy. You just sign on my behalf." Wayne waved his hand and it was settled.

The Moonlight Church was too big, and he had no way to deny the debt, but it would be different if Chris signed. It would be best if he didn't pay it back. He could buy a mother for 18 yuan, and it was a good deal. The child wouldn't starve, and neither would he.

Chris opened her mouth. Things were more difficult than she thought.

After thinking for a moment, she agreed that if Wayne's investment lost money, she would continue to work to pay back the money.

After talking about investment, the two started today's class. Wayne looked at the textbooks that skipped from third grade to seventh grade, which was the knowledge for the first year of junior high school, and looked at Chris in surprise.

I have the ability to teach you how to teach the second graders!

Chris smiled gently, but the teasing in the corner of her eyes still made Wayne blush.

Exposed.

The senior sister knew everything but still insisted on tutoring, which definitely had nothing to do with him being a creditor. From a detective's point of view, the most unlikely truth was that the senior sister was greedy for his body!
Coincidentally, he thought so too, and they ran towards each other in both directions.

The study session that night was very relaxed, and Wayne was still able to apply what he had learned to other situations. In the middle, Chris switched to the eleventh grade senior high school textbook, and without any teaching, Wayne was able to answer questions fluently.

It turns out that he is already a college student!

"I am so silly……"

Chris leaned on the desk, propped up her head with one hand, and said speechlessly: "Wayne, time is the most precious thing. You shouldn't waste your precious time on boring things."

"No, Chris, you're not boring at all."

"..."

Chris blushed, thinking that what he said was too explicit, and advised Wayne to take it back.

"Besides, without the tutoring class, I wouldn't trust you so much. If you can't borrow money, you can't complete the church's mission, right?"

Wayne made a quick move and changed the subject, "So, I didn't waste my precious time, and you helped the church overcome its difficulties. We both have a bright future."

Chris blushed when she was interrupted, and after thinking about it, it seemed to make some sense.

Bah, how can that make sense!

She glared at Wayne, packed up her textbooks and said, "I don't have classes tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I will prepare for college courses. Don't hide it from me next time if something like this happens. You are a genius. You can't waste an hour and a half every day."

"It's so kind of you."

"Uh, don't say that again. During class, I'm the teacher and you're the student. Do you understand?"

"..."

Wayne: (ω)
"What's there to be ashamed of?"

Wayne was not embarrassed, but Chris was embarrassed. Her face turned red and she picked up her textbook and ran away from the study.

----

Commercial Street, Wayne Detective Agency.

Wayne checked on him as usual, looked through the documents from the past two days, and signed them one by one.

Assistant Kelly handed over a notebook with a phone number written on it. "Detective Mona called in a hurry this morning. There was a small problem when investigating a missing pet case. She didn't explain the details, so she asked you to contact her when you are free."

Wayne's assistant is Veronica, but the eldest lady only pays a salary and only comes to work when she is bored, so he specially hired an office assistant.

The young girl had just graduated and had not yet experienced the ups and downs of life, but she insisted on working overtime every day with full spirit.

She was the last one to lock the door and the first one to open it, rain or shine. Wayne voted her as the employee of the month and promised to make her a permanent employee after the three-month internship.

"What kind of trouble could she get into..."

Wayne frowned. A commission about a missing pet actually stumped his two generals. "Kelly, how many days has Detective Mona been investigating the missing pet?"

"Five days."

"..."

Wayne was silent for a moment. Mona was not an ordinary person. She was a member of the Vatican's tactical team. She had spent five days and still hadn't found a dog.

Could it be that I encountered some devil again?
Oh my god, why are there so many devils? Is Hell organizing a team building?
He picked up the phone and dialed the number, but as expected, no one answered.

After the two times, the innkeeper said that Glasses and Long Legs had checked out and left in a hurry, as if he had met a creditor.

"Not in Lundan City, and being hunted by someone..."

"This is a problem."

Wayne couldn't just ignore the friendship they had exchanged, so he made another call: "Kerr, it's me, Wayne."

"Remember your sister?"

"How do I know how many sisters you have? I'm talking about Mona, the detective you recommended to me before. She's in trouble."

"Tell her family to rescue the body while it's still warm."

"I can't. I'm busy making money. I don't have time to come over. I'm hanging up now. You can treat me to a meal some other day."

Wayne hung up the phone and told Mona not to panic. He overcame many difficulties and helped call for reinforcements, and the Vatican’s troops would arrive soon.
