Chapter 66 Hiring a Killer, Constantine's Visit

The five assistant bishops, heads bowed, quickly left the archbishop's office.

After leaving that oppressive space

The group then slowed down and began to discuss the matter in hushed tones.

One of the assistant bishops suddenly spoke up and questioned:

"Bishop Hermann, isn't this matter your responsibility?"

When Hermann heard that someone was targeting him, he immediately retorted angrily:

"Bishop Philip, stop with the labeling."

My job was simply to discuss with Father Mark, the exorcist, how to subdue him.

Who could have imagined that Father Mark would have an accident?

The other assistant bishops, seeing that there was a scapegoat to choose from, no longer cared about right or wrong.

They all began to criticize Hermann:

"Bishop Herman, stop shirking your responsibility; this is your job."

"That's settled then. If things don't go smoothly, we'll report it to His Excellency the Bishop!"

After saying that, the group exchanged knowing glances.

They quickly left in twos and threes, and no one looked at Hermann again.

Wherever there are people, there is a social hierarchy, let alone a church with its strict hierarchy and countless secrets.

Hermann glanced at the four people's retreating figures, his face ashen.

He could only grit his teeth and swallow his anger.

Arguing at this moment is pointless and will only confirm one's dereliction of duty.

He hesitated for a moment, then took out his phone and dialed a number.

A moment later, a deep male voice came through the receiver:

"Hello, this is 'Trap Master Pest Control Company.' How can I help you?"

Hermann paused for a moment before slowly speaking:

"I would like to ask you to help me get rid of a bedbug."

"Oh?"

The man on the other end of the phone immediately became interested:

"Sir, it's very expensive if you only order one."

"Money is not the issue; efficiency is what I need."

"Hehe, we're professionals when it comes to pest control."

The man laughed cruelly, then asked confidently:

"Would you like to include a collectible insect limb?"

Hermann's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this.

But the next second, the frustration from being suppressed earlier surged back.

As a surge of savagery and violence rose within him, he spoke in a hoarse voice:

"I want his head."

"No problem. Including the production cost of 50, I'll pay a 30% deposit first, and the balance will be paid after the task is completed."

The man rattled off the price in rapid succession.

They seemed very proficient in this business.

Hermann asked with great interest:

"Aren't you going to ask me if I'm trying to get rid of that bedbug?"

The man gave a dismissive snort.

Then, he casually uttered a sentence:

"They're all the same."

That cold tone sent a chill down Herman's spine.

He slowly walked into the sunlight and said softly:

"The target is an Asian youth named Li Yuan. You can find his information online. He's very popular today."

But unexpectedly, after Hermann revealed this name,

A muffled thud suddenly came from the phone, like the sound of a heavy object falling!

"Fuck!"

After a short, suppressed curse,

The man on the other end of the phone said urgently:

"I can't give you my head, but I'll give you my hand instead, and this order is free!"

After saying that, the man hurriedly hung up the phone.

Herman stared at the phone, now that the call had ended, with a puzzled look.

After a moment, realizing what was happening, he chuckled softly:

"Looks like you've messed with quite a few people."

Li Yuan, unaware that he was being targeted,

She was sitting in the office, happily counting money with Edward.

In just a short while, Li Yuan sold two more bottles of holy water and five more bottles of demon-slaying potion.

"Edward, if we keep this kind of sales every day, we might have to move soon."

Li Yuan is already envisioning where he should choose to build his future luxury home.

Beverly Hills? Or Holmby Hills?

"I'm not living with you when you move."

Edward shook his head and said disdainfully:

"He brings a girl home every now and then, disturbing my sleep!"

"Um... the soundproofing in a luxury villa might be even better!"

Just as Edward was about to say something more,

The firm's doors were pushed open again.

A man wearing a black hoodie, a baseball cap, and sunglasses pushed open the door and entered.

He glanced around the store, his gaze finally settling on Li Yuan behind the desk.

He casually took off his sunglasses and asked, "Li Yuan?"

"That's right..."

Li Yuan stared blankly at the newcomer's appearance for a moment.

He then slowly stood up and tentatively asked:

"Should I call you Mr. Keanu Reeves, or... Constantine?"

"Oh? You actually know that name."

Keanu joked with a laugh:

"So you're the exorcist who ventured into hell to hunt down demons."

Li Yuan nodded, acknowledging his actions, but asked with some doubt:

Why do you say that?

"Because only demons would call me by that name. You did a great job."

Keanu explained the reason as he walked towards Li Yuan:

"I saw you're selling exorcism water online, may I take a look?"

"sure."

Li Yuan gestured for them to sit down and chat, then took out a bottle of holy water and placed it on the table.

"This is the potent exorcism potion I sell."

Keanu curiously picked up the bottle of golden liquid.

Then I placed it in the sunlight and observed it carefully.

"This is completely different from ordinary holy water; there seem to be some energy particles in it."

As Keanu spoke, he took out the holy water from his pocket and compared it.

"That's right, my potent exorcism potion is extremely effective; it's far superior to ordinary holy water."

After observing for a moment, Keanu nodded in satisfaction.

He placed the holy water back on the table and said:

"My purpose in coming here is to buy these things. How many do you have?"

Keanu's words surprised Li Yuan.

Judging from his tone, he seems to want to keep all the holy water for himself.

Seeing this, Li Yuan quickly said:

"I can manage to squeeze out 15 bottles for now, since I need to use them too."

The previous missions consumed a lot of holy water.

He also sold quite a lot; he had to keep at least half of it.

Seeing the troubled look on Li Yuan's face, Keanu asked curiously:

"Will you have more stock later?"

Li Yuan patted his chest and said confidently:

"Of course there will be! It's just a bit tense for now."

"Okay, then 15 bottles it is. I'll take a look at that Demon Slayer Potion."

Keanu readily placed the order and also wanted to buy some other things.

It is clear that they highly approve of the products produced by Li Yuan.

Li Yuan thought to himself, "No wonder he's a big star; he's so generous."

Keanu Reeves was at the peak of his career at this time.

The Matrix made him a global sensation.

His net worth is among the highest in Hollywood.

Furthermore, he does not have a habit of overspending.

Li Yuan specially took out a box with a grid pattern and filled it with 15 bottles of holy water for him.

And he earnestly instructed:

"The bottle is quite fragile, so please handle it with care during transport."

He then took out the Demon Slayer Potion and gave Keanu a detailed explanation.

After listening attentively to Li Yuan's explanation, Keanu nodded in satisfaction.

"The things here are all very useful. Do you have anything else?"

Li Yuan wanted to sell the Holy Silver Bullets, but ultimately held back.

Money can never be fully earned, and these bullets might come in very useful later.

He smiled and shook his head, saying:

"That's all for now, but we'll have other potions and exorcism tools later."

Ultimately, Keanu purchased 15 bottles of holy water and 10 bottles of demon-slaying potion from Li Yuan's agency.

And a whole liver pie, the total bill came to $240 million...

Before leaving, Keanu gave Li Yuan his contact information:

"If you find any good deals, remember to contact me. I'll introduce you to some friends another day."

"I will, and you're welcome to come again next time!"

After seeing Keanu Reeves off, Li Yuan immediately checked his Holy Light value.

"It's 17 PM, time for a 10-pull! I'm almost out of Holy Water!"

Li Yuan slowly closed his eyes and activated the Holy Light Wheel.
