Chapter 70 Lawyers
After using the investigator's funds to buy a lot of dresses, and by the way, he helped his sister Thavi buy a few pieces, Vita said goodbye to Marilyn and returned home for a long time.
However, neither Thavi nor Andrew were there.
He put the clothes he gave to Thavi to her room, tidied up his and Andrew's wardrobe, and then sat down quietly, feeling a little lonely.
Then he called the Knights.
After a few ticking sounds of water, the operator of the Knights Order answered the phone: "Hello, this is the Knights Hereford. Is there anything I can help you?"
"I want to find Andrew Zoerfan, can I help me answer his phone?"
"Who are you?"
"I am his brother, Vita."
The operator on the other side of the phone was busy for a while and then said, "Sorry, Mr. Andrew is doing a mission outside. Do you need me to leave a message for you?"
Vita was silent for a while: "No need."
After hanging up the phone, Vita sat on the chair that Andrew used often, closed his eyes and thought about everything he knew about the Knights.
The knight was originally a private part of the nobles. Since the emperor ascended the throne, he established a knight order to forcibly separate the knights from the nobles and handed it over to the imperial government to directly govern. At present, he is directly loyal to a certain person like Joseph.
There are not many knights in the family. And Joseph himself is more similar to a housekeeper in Shelley's house, but he still demands himself according to the standards of a knight.
However, as a compromise and compromise, the Knights retained the function of protecting the nobles.
Vita recalled the news that he had seen in the newspaper about the murder of aristocrats, and felt that his younger brother should be busy with this matter.
Then, he lowered his head and saw the book "A Beginner of Magical Basics for Children from Scratch" on the table. Andrew has been studying this book, but now it seems that there is a thin layer of dust on it.
Just as Vita was immersed in the sadness of an empty-nest elderly man, his door handle suddenly turned.
Vita turned around and found that it was Thavi who was back.
When Thavi saw Vita, he suddenly widened his eyes: "Vitago! Shouldn't you be lying in the hospital?!"
"I'm ready."
"Love!" Thavi changed his shoes in a panic, rushed to Vita, and looked left and right.
Vita raised his hands and calmly received a careful examination of Thavi. His injuries were indeed healed, and this was all due to Ridley's dose of the injury medicine that he had given him.
After completing the inspection, Thavi felt relieved and smiled and said, "It's fine if it's okay, Vitago, are you having supper at home today?"
"certainly."
Thavi hummed a song, happily preparing to change clothes, and then cooked with Vita.
Then her panicked voice came again: "Vitago! Where did these expensive clothes come from!?"
After carefully perfunctory Thavi, Vita endured her sister's suspicious gaze and pretended that nothing had happened, preparing for today's meal.
Just then, someone knocked on the door of Vita's house.
Thavi ran to look at Maoyan first, turned to Vita and said, "It's someone I don't know."
Vita turned off the faucet and wiped his hands: "What does it look like?"
"I'm dressed in formal wear, wearing gold-rimmed glasses." Thavi lowered his voice: "I don't look like a good person!"
Vita quietly opened the safety of the steam pistol, rushed Thavi to the kitchen, and opened the door himself.
The person outside the door looked at Vita a few times, took off his hat and bowed: "Guian, Mr. Heimen. My name is Phoenix White, and I am the lawyer representing Baron Beryis. I want to ask you to be our witness.
.”
Baron Boys is the spokesperson for the nobles who support the killing of the elves Tita.
Vita narrowed his eyes: "You shouldn't come here at this time, let alone come here."
"I think this is suitable. After all, other nobles in the rehabilitation hospital have too many eyeliners." Phoenix bowed apologetically: "About time... I'm sorry to bother you at this time, can I let me in?"
"inconvenient."
Phoenix choked and smiled bitterly: "Mr. Blackmen, we are comrades and have common goals. Our discussion is more beneficial to achieving the goals, and there is no way to talk about things in the corridor."
Vita leaned against the door, blocking the view of Thavi, who was protruding his head, and lowered his voice: "I don't want to involve work and life too close. Since you know that I am Black Door, you should understand what my job is, right?
Mr. Lawyer.”
Phoenix was silent for a while before pressing his hat on his chest again and bowed: "I'm very sorry, I was rash."
Vita nodded and closed the door.
Thavi tilted his head: "Who was he just now?"
"The insurance seller." Vita shrugged and continued to prepare the meal.
After a pleasant dinner with Thavi, Vita packed up her clothes and said goodbye to her.
Vita took leave from the nurse before going out. He has not forgotten that he is a dangerous person who was on the verge of losing control.
So Vita walked out of the house with a gift box.
Then, with the dim lights on the aisle, Vita found Phoenix sitting on the stairs in the corridor.
"Have you been here all the time?" Vita admired Phoenix's perseverance.
"Yes." Phoenix stood up with a smile: "You are a very important witness to me."
"Can you control the nobles' thoughts?"
"I'm sorry, I can't." Phoenix's smile remained unabated.
"Then it should be no difference for you whether I am your witness or not." Vita stared at Phoenix's smiling face: "You and I know that arbitration is just a formality, and what really determines the fate of the elves is the result of the struggle of the nobles."
"What are you talking about? I don't understand."
Vita sighed: "Forget it, go. What do you want to know?"
The two found a coffee shop and sat down. Phoenix faced Vita, asked about the details of his battle with the elves, and wrote quickly on his notebook.
Although Vita doesn't like this lawyer, Phoenix is right, and the two have a common goal. In order to send the elf Tita to see the mother god as soon as possible, he knows everything about Phoenix's inquiry, even if Phoenix's influence is actually
Very small.
"Okay, Mr. Vita, one last question, have you got any loot from that elves?" asked Phoenix.
"No, it's better to say that I lost a finger." Vita picked up the coffee and took a sip. I remembered that Amanda's finger was released as a prop to provoke Tita, and I don't know if there is still a chance to take it back.
"Finger? Your fingers seem to..." Phoenix looked at Vita's hand with half-finger gloves.
Vita pulled down her cuffs speechlessly, revealing her skinless finger.
Phoenix took a breath, hurriedly put away his notebook, and flipped over the coffee cup at hand. He trembled: "Thank you... Thank you, Mr. Vita, I have no questions."
Vita finished drinking the coffee and looked at him silently.
Phoenix seemed to suddenly remember something, and squeezed out a smile: "Mr. Vita, thank you again, I'll invite you to this."
Only then did Vita stand up satisfied and say goodbye and leave.
Looking at Vita's departure back, Phoenix took a breath and calmed down his emotions of being scared by the terrible finger.
Then, he turned his notebook upside down and opened it.
There are many names on this page. If you look closely, there are Vita, Marilyn, Joseph, and even Andrew's.
Phoenix cut Vita's name away: "It's not in his hands. Damn..."
