Chapter 71 Blackmailed?
How should I put it? It was a huge hotel with three floors and nearly a hundred rooms.
Each room is designed differently.
The oldest design can even be traced back to the time when humans appeared. The primitive-looking tree house really shocked Gretel's eyes.
The pyramid was full of Pharaonic flavor, and Grete felt that it would be a shame not to mummify herself.
When Grete walked into another room with a mysterious and sad Gothic architectural style, he was shocked and quickly exited the room. The uplifting design always made him feel like he had entered a church.
The classical style room made him feel as if he had entered Buckingham Palace in a dream, and he almost thought he was going to be crowned in person.
Gorgeous baroque, strong color combination almost makes everyone look stupid.
There is even an oriental classical garden style. Who knows how many invisible stretching spells they cast in order to fit a garden into this room.
…
Under the scorching eyes of the old wizards, Grete chose the simplest minimalist style to end this nightmarish art visit.
Ignoring the disappointed looks of the group of people, Grete looked at Vladimir, "Well, Mr. Dilgo, I have chosen the room, now you can let me meet Seni."
As soon as Gretel spoke, the group stopped pretending to be deaf and turned around one by one and disapparated.
In the blink of an eye, only Vladimir was left in front of Gretel, who was looking at him awkwardly.
"Until Seni is returned," Grete grabbed Vladimir's clothes when he took out his wand, "don't even think about leaving."
Unexpectedly, the old man moved his beard, pulled his sleeves away from his shoulders, and apparated away.
Before leaving, he laughed and left a message for Grete: "Mr. Grete, don't worry, Seni is really safe. When I get home, I will ask him to send you a text message.
Also, you can walk around Gordo freely these days.
You can go anywhere, and when it's meal time, a house elf will bring you a meal. "
The emphasis of Vladimir's words was placed anywhere. How could Grete not know what he meant.
This was obviously a plot against him, an honest man.
They took him for a long walk around the town, not just because they wanted him to explore the place hidden by the magic circle.
Curiosity killed the cat. How could Gretel do what they wanted? He was not the kind of person who was naturally curious.
When entering the town, Gretel felt the state of Seni based on the contract between him and Seni.
Although Saini's condition has been ups and downs, he has always remained above the safety line.
In this case, Gretel is not in a hurry to take Seni back.
It was getting late now, and Grete no longer had the sense of urgency when he came, so he simply settled down in the hotel for the time being.
He was quite curious about what Vladimir said about Mr. Dolson's cooking skills. He heard that Dolson had been carefully taught by an ancient wizard in Kunlun a few years ago.
He has good cooking skills.
Also, mainly because he heard that most of Dolson's materials were painstakingly acquired from Kunlun.
This immediately aroused Gretel's greed. He was really fed up with the food of Great Britain.
No matter how exquisite it is, it is difficult for him to forget the delicious food of his hometown.
"Just stay one night and leave tomorrow after you taste it."
The phone was turned on, and Gretel received greetings from the team members.
After everyone reported that they were safe, the sky was already dark.
The afterglow of the setting sun reluctantly fell along the mountainside, and the only ray of light reluctantly hit the center of the town.
——
That night, Gretel didn't sleep very peacefully. Whenever he was about to fall into a deep sleep, he could always feel the fluctuations of the apparating spell around the hotel.
If it weren't for the fact that Gretel couldn't stand it anymore, he opened the window and threw a fluorescent flash outside.
I probably won't be able to sleep until dawn.
When Vladimir came to the door, Gretel went out with a look of resentment and panda eyes.
"Mr. Dilgo, the security here is not very good. I think we need to install an anti-Apparition spell like the Ministry of Magic."
Vladimir moved his beard awkwardly and laughed.
"By the way, didn't you say yesterday that you wanted to try Dolson's craftsmanship?
He has made a reservation for you. He will not go out today. You can go to dine at any time. "
Gretel raised his eyebrows, becoming interested instantly.
Last night he went to Dolson's restaurant, only to find a sign indicating that the chef was resting at the door of the restaurant.
After asking Vladimir, I found out that Dolson always rests on Tuesdays, and you need to make an appointment to taste his craftsmanship on weekdays.
Gretel thought that she did not have such a good fortune, and planned to leave today after bidding farewell to those lovely old men and ladies.
Who would have thought that old man Vladimir would solve it for him quietly.
After twelve years, Gretel regained the taste of his hometown.
But looking at the blond hair and blue eyes in front of them, Grete felt the changes in the world for the first time in a long time, and things had changed and people had changed.
After having enough tea and food, Gretel, accompanied by Vladimir, visited all the shopkeepers who had given him gifts yesterday.
"It's just a small gift, but it's not respectful." Grete presented the shopkeepers with mobile phones packed overnight.
What Grete didn't expect was that all the shopkeepers got the mobile phones.
The first thing was to open the gift, shake it in front of old Vladimir's face, and say meaningfully: "So this is a mobile phone."
Without exception, everyone did the same thing.
Until visiting Mrs. Kailin's bar, Grete knew why everyone acted like this.
It was all Vladimir Diergo himself who was to blame. After Grete settled down yesterday, the old man took Seni's mobile phone and visited every household.
Just to show off the mobile phone in his hand that was said to be able to transmit sound over a thousand miles.
No wonder all those who received Grete's return gift had a face full of ridicule when facing Vladimir.
After all, up to now, the mobile phone in his hand still nominally belonged to his grandson, Seni Diergo.
Grete really couldn't bear to see the embarrassment of the old man being squeezed by others, so after leaving the bar, he handed him the mobile phone that he had hidden for a long time.
Obviously, the old man had been playing with Seni's mobile phone for a long time in private. He turned it on and operated it skillfully without Grete's teaching.
——
"Mr. Dilgo, since Mr. Dolson's meal has been finished and the return gift has been sent, I will go back to London first.
Please tell Seni that he doesn't need to worry about the store. I will go with Penelope to choose a good address. I will trouble him with the store's affairs when the time comes."
Vladimir was still immersed in the joy of studying the mobile phone with a happy face. He raised his head instantly after hearing Grete's words.
"What? You want to leave? That's not possible."
As if he was afraid that Grete would take off if he didn't agree with him, the old man imitated Grete's appearance and grabbed Grete's sleeve.
"Hurry up, someone, this kid is going to run away."
Vladimir's voice was particularly strong, and Grete even felt that his ears were shaken and had some tinnitus.
"?" Grete was confused. Why did this give him a strong sense of déjà vu of helping someone and being blackmailed?
Hey, well, I forgot to tell you all the good news. The editor said that we will be on the shelves on April 1st.
I won’t go into details here. I will tell you all the extra words in the remarks when the book is on the shelves.
Small theater
Today’s Magic News: According to the latest news from this newspaper, before the news of this newspaper was sent out, the Supreme Human Community returned to the meeting and passed a resolution on how to save the gradually missing human mutual assistance.
The resolution clearly stated that all those who were falsely accused for good deeds can apply for assistance from the moral assistance department of the Supreme Conference.
Once it is confirmed that the person has been falsely accused, the false accuser will be divided by 100 times the illegal income to compensate the person who was falsely accused, and the false accuser will be included in the credit blacklist of the community with a shared future for mankind, and all social benefits will be cancelled.
Do not do evil for the sake of smallness, do not do good for the sake of smallness, and cherish it while doing it.
