My esoteric uncle Jules

Chapter 22 A Small Favor for Holmes
Under the strange gazes of passers-by, Yulefei ran towards the apartment and kicked open the half-open door.

"What's going on?" His hand had already reached into his pocket, ready to draw his gun and shoot at any time.

The forged holy emblem was not taken back but left to him. Therefore, he now holds a powerful weapon that can compete with a first-level transcendent at any time!
"Hey, you're back?" A group of men in black came down the corridor and saw Yule standing at the door. They couldn't help but sneer:
"I thought you were a spineless coward, dumping all your debts on a woman. She's only a few years old, and you have the nerve to do that."

Then came Mrs. Boleyn's angry voice from upstairs:
"When it comes to shamelessness, who can compare to you? You even attacked a little girl of only a few years old. You are simply... ahem."

A violent cough interrupted her scolding.

Jules's face suddenly turned sour:

"What did you do?"

He naturally recognized that the other party was a debt collector! And they were a professional gang of gangsters who collected debts!
The leading man in black looked at Jules provocatively:

"What? We were just questioning and tugging, and our slaps accidentally touched her little face. You're not going to make a big fuss about it, are you?"

Jules said nothing more, stepped forward and said softly:
"How many times did you touch it?"

Just as he approached, Lolita, who was upstairs, came downstairs holding the hand of Mrs. Boleyn.

When Yule saw the red slap mark on Lolita's face, he felt a surge of anger rushing to his head.

"Hey, look at what you're saying," the man said, becoming even more arrogant as he saw Jules approaching. "This time, it's just one hit, but next time it might be two, or even..."

Snapped!
Before he could finish his words, Yule slapped him in the face, causing him to spin around, interrupting his arrogant speech.

"Boy, you dare to do it!"

The people behind him suddenly started to shout, took out various sticks, and looked at Jules menacingly.

The man who was beaten was obviously confused. He shook his head and yelled:

"You're done! I'm going to the police station to report you right now! Just prepare to go to jail!"

"Then maybe one slap isn't enough."

After saying this, Yule took advantage of the other party's failure to react and slapped him hard!
This slap was so powerful that it knocked him to the ground!

The man struggled on the ground for a while and got up with difficulty:
"You, aren't you afraid that I'll report you to the police? You'll realize your mistake when you're in jail!"

The other party's way of threatening me was to report me to the police? To go to jail?

Hearing these two words, Jules even wanted to laugh.

He took out his pistol slowly, pointed it at a few people, and said leisurely:
"You can try it."

Pointed at by the dark muzzle of a gun flashing with a cold light, the anger of several people was extinguished, and they trembled and said:
"Could it be that you dare to kill someone?"

Jules didn't say anything, but just adjusted the way he held the gun, with no intention of putting it down.

Several men in black looked at each other, and they could see the fear in each other's eyes.

The one who is horizontal is afraid of being stunned, and the one who is stunned is afraid of losing his life!
Even if someone is killed, the imperial police will never let him go, and they don't want to be the victim!

It's just to collect a debt. The salary is just a few dollars. Is it necessary to risk your life like this?

Being pointed at gunpoint, the few people finally gave in, no longer showing their previous arrogance. The leader also said in a negotiating and flattering tone:

"Well, we apologize for accidentally hitting someone. You know, debt collection requires a bit of ruthlessness to get the money. I just wanted to scare him, but I lost control..."

Lolita suddenly cried out in tears:

"You're lying! You were clearly trying so hard!"

The leader turned around and glared at Lolita fiercely, and then Jules's "Hmm?" was heard.

His expression suddenly became much more flattering. He turned around and smiled at Yu Leqiang:
"Well, I'm really sorry. Sorry, she's just a child after all, and she doesn't understand what's going on between us adults. Since you slapped me to vent your anger, why don't we just let this go?"

Hearing this, Jules simply moved his gun:

"Since you were the first to attack, everyone, kneel down and apologize to her."

Apologizing to a little girl? And having to kneel down?

The expressions of several people changed, and they were obviously reluctant.

"Hmm?" Yule raised his eyebrows slightly, and raised the muzzle of the gun, which had been lowered a little, two inches higher.

Seeing this, the leader quickly turned around, knelt on the ground, and cried out, "It's my fault for being so blind and offending you..."

The others followed suit, making the scene look quite strange.

After kneeling, several people stood up and said with a smile: "Then, can we go now?"

Yule twitched the corner of his mouth and said with a forced smile:
"Aren't you here to collect a debt? Tell me how much the interest is, so I can see if I can afford it."

Several people were frightened by Yule's actions and completely forgot that they were actually here to collect a debt. After being reminded, they finally woke up from their dream, but their tone no longer had the arrogance they had at the beginning:

"Well, you only need to pay £50 in interest to postpone the deadline for two months..."

Their words were filled with uneasiness, fearing that this number would anger the evil star in front of them.

Unexpectedly, Jules just held the gun in one hand and reached into his bag with the other hand, took out the money he had just withdrawn with a check today, and threw it over.

"Take this and let your master know that you shouldn't bother me for the next two months. Get out now."

"Yes, yes." Several people had never expected that they could complete the task. They were overjoyed, thanked several times, and ran away.

They were complaining bitterly in their hearts - who knew they would run into such a tough guy when collecting debts!
……

Touching his empty wallet, Jules shook his head helplessly.

He had discussed the debt issue with Lutos, also known as Steel, before, but the other party said that he had no way to deal with it.

If the other party had not been in the wrong and what he did had not angered him, he would not have wanted to actually pull out a gun.

Of course, if the other party persists, he will probably still shoot. The worst that can happen is that it will be more troublesome to explain to the Anti-Suppression Bureau.

After all, in theory, official agents of the Anti-Suppression Bureau have the "legal right to kill."

Money, money, and more money!
He had never wanted money so much.

Those damn vampires made a fortune from usury, and they lived a greasy life, but they refused to give up a penny and refused to give people even a day's leniency on their deadlines.

"Rutos said that as long as I can be promoted from detective to inspector, I can mobilize resources and ask for the elimination of this unreasonable debt..."

Repay the principal? That's impossible, this is what Jules insisted on.

He couldn't swallow the fact that he was cheated out of such a huge debt by the damn capitalist!
If the esotericists had not been investigating him, he would not have wanted to pay even the interest in order to keep things quiet.

At this moment, Jules only felt that the road ahead was still long.

Although I have a job now, in the eyes of those real big shots, I am still just an ordinary person.

He sighed and was about to go forward to comfort Lolita who was wiping away her tears when applause suddenly broke out behind him.

"Crack, snap, snap."

Who? Jules turned his head and saw Sherlock Holmes, who had appeared there since some time ago.

At this time, Holmes was smiling and looking at Jules with admiration.

"Jules, my friend, you are more courageous and sensible than I thought. I have to reconsider you."

Jules was just wondering:
"Holmes, when did you come?"

He didn't notice when this guy appeared.

Holmes shrugged.

"Just now, when you started arguing."

It seems that this guy has watched the whole thing... Yule's face was full of black lines, and he said:
"If there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

He was about to go upstairs when Holmes suddenly stopped him and said with a faint smile:
"Jules, are you out of money now?"

Yule was slightly stunned and said, "Indeed, but how did you..."

Before he could even finish the question, he realized he was mistaking his thoughts for something else. How could the other person see that? Because he was Sherlock Holmes, the top-notch detective!
Holmes smiled gentlemanly:
"I can lend you some money without interest.

However, as a condition, you have to do me a small favor."
