Chapter 102 Target: Rhodes Island
"Oh! You're finally back."
Edward glanced at Li Yuan with a sigh of relief.
He then stood up and introduced the product to the customers in front of him:
"This is Li Yuan, our firm's boss."
The customer was a middle-aged woman who turned around with a furrowed brow.
Upon seeing Li Yuan's appearance, she covered her mouth in surprise and exclaimed:
"My God, I've seen you on TV!"
Li Yuan put on a friendly smile and extended his hand in greeting:
"Hello ma'am, how can I help you?"
"My name is Rose."
The woman smiled and shook hands with Li Yuan.
His expression changed immediately, and he whispered:
"The TV says you only care about money, is that really true?"
Li Yuan's expression stiffened upon hearing this.
I immediately knew which TV program the other person was watching.
Damn church!
Li Yuan cursed inwardly, then forced a smile and said:
"It's all a rumor, but my service fee is indeed not cheap."
Just as Rose's expression changed slightly, Li Yuan followed up with an explanation:
"After all, good things don't come cheap, do they?"
Rose nodded slowly upon hearing this, then said somewhat hesitantly:
"But... I really don't have much money."
Li Yuan pulled her hand and sat her down on the sofa, gently comforting her:
"It's alright, let me hear what kind of case it is first."
Rose paused for a moment, then slowly revealed the case she wanted to commission.
It turns out Rose wasn't the one in trouble.
Instead, it was her older sister Caroline and her family.
They recently moved to a new house.
But something unclean seemed to have gotten into their new home, disturbing the peace of the family.
For this reason, they specifically sought out the Warrens, who are very famous in the exorcism circle.
However, due to the church's complicated and demanding exorcism procedures, the exorcism plan could not be carried out.
So when Rose learned of her older sister's difficulties,
He then anxiously went to Li Yuan's place.
At this time, Li Yuan was already very well-known in Los Angeles.
After listening for a while, Li Yuan couldn't help but chuckle to himself:
Another case of problems arising from buying a second-hand house.
He has already solved two similar cases.
However, Li Yuan already knew which movie this plot was from.
Since the Warrens are involved, it's highly likely to be a ghost story.
After Rose finished recounting the whole incident, Li Yuan nodded slightly and then asked:
What is your sister's address?
Seeing that Li Yuan was willing to accept the commission, Rose happily said:
"In Harrisville, in the northern part of Rhodes Island."
Upon hearing the words "Rhodes Island," Li Yuan's eye twitched slightly.
That's not a very peaceful place.
It's almost on par with that awful place in Maine.
Seeing Li Yuan's conflicted expression, Rose grabbed his hand and said:
"Mr. Li Yuan, please help them! That house has drained their savings..."
"Okay, I agree."
Li Yuan eventually agreed.
Anyway, I'm going to New York for a banquet in a few days, so I might as well go there on the way and leave early.
Rose, seeing that Li Yuan had agreed, quickly said gratefully:
"Thank you so much, Mr. Li Yuan."
As she spoke, she took out a wad of cash from her bag and stuffed it into Li Yuan's hand.
"Here's $7000, all the savings I have."
Li Yuan took it without counting, and casually pulled out half of it and handed it back.
"It's better to keep some for yourself, just in case your sister's family is fine but your own family has problems."
Rose took the banknotes from Li Yuan, somewhat dazed.
He sighed softly to himself:
"It seems what they say on TV is all lies; you're not greedy at all."
"That's right, but don't go spreading it around."
Li Yuan smiled and nodded, then whispered a word of advice.
After all, he didn't want to be taken advantage of by someone who came to his door for free.
Whether the fee is high or low depends solely on Li Yuan's mood, not on moral coercion.
After giving Caroline her address, Li Yuan saw her out the door.
Upon hearing that he was going out to exorcise a demon, Edward's eyes lit up and he said:
"Li Yuan! Let me go with you!"
"No problem, just don't hold us back this time."
Li Yuan did not refuse, thinking it would be good for Edward to go out and gain some exorcism experience.
After all, if he could exorcise demons independently,
It can also bring you Holy Light and experience.
Edward was taken aback when he heard Li Yuan's words.
He stared at him and said, "Why the rush?"
"Nonsense, do you think I'm part of the church?"
Li Yuan rolled his eyes and retorted:
"This is a matter of life and death; how can we delay it?"
Edward nodded vigorously in response:
"Alright, I'll pack my things and then we'll go."
"Don't bother packing. Give me the hammer and the potion, I'll return them to you after we get off the plane."
"Oh... okay!"
Just then, Hell Detective suddenly jumped onto the table and meowed at Li Yuan.
Looking at the kitten's adorable expression, Li Yuan said helplessly:
"Okay, okay, you can have one too."
Li Yuan, carrying Hell's Detective, got into Edward's car and headed to Los Angeles Airport.
There are no direct flights from Los Angeles to Providence, Rhode Island.
Li Yuan had no choice but to buy two plane tickets to New York.
Because we brought Hell Detective, we incurred an extra expense.
After a flight of more than five hours, we arrived in New York.
The two people and one cat needed to transfer here before they could reach Providence.
While waiting for my flight in the departure lounge,
With nothing else to do, Li Yuan took out the two recipes he had won in the lottery.
"I've been so busy lately, I almost forgot about you all."
Li Yuan casually crushed the two recipes.
Immediately afterwards, a stream of obscure and difficult-to-understand knowledge entered his mind.
[Holy Chainmail Belt: Required Materials: Basic High-Concentration Holy Water + High-Carbon Steel Ingot + Alumina Refractory Ceramic Core + Basalt Fragment, Forging Method...]
Invisibility Potion: Required materials: Glowing Mushroom Extract + Sunflower Concentrate Juice, potion ratio...
Looking at the ingredients needed for the two formulas, Li Yuan was secretly astonished:
The things I need this time are not easy to get.
Li Yuan had never even heard of the fluorescent mushroom extract, especially not the one containing the fluorescent mushroom extract.
Li Yuan pondered for a moment.
I felt that I should ask Raphael for help with herbs; he must have the connections to get them.
As for the material for the belt, Li Yuan planned to ask Devin for help; those things could be obtained with money.
Just then, Edward, who was walking over from a distance, handed Li Yuan a cup of coffee and began to complain:
"My God, the connecting flight is over an hour away."
Li Yuan took a sip of coffee and said with a hint of helplessness:
There are no direct flights there, so we'll just have to wait.
He glanced at Edward's beard and said:
"Aren't you going to shave your beard?"
"I'm not shaving anymore. Lina says a beard makes me look more manly."
Looking at the smiling Edward, Li Yuan rolled his eyes speechlessly. He wasn't even bothering to pretend anymore...
After waiting in the departure lounge for two hours,
The flight to Providence has finally taken off.
After another hour of flight, Li Yuan and his companion...
We finally arrived in Providence.
But this is not the end.
They had to drive to Harrisville, Rhode Island, which would take about 40 minutes...
Li Yuan rented a Grand Cherokee directly from a car rental shop inside the airport.
Since Li Yuan wasn't very good at reading maps, he handed over the responsibility of navigating to Edward.
After starting the car, Li Yuan said to Edward in the passenger seat:
"Look at the map carefully, don't give me the wrong directions."
"Don't worry about it."
"Could you turn the map over so we can see it face up?"
"Just focus on driving, stop staring at me!"
Amidst their bickering, the car slowly drove out of the airport and headed in the direction indicated on the map.
