Chapter 21 The Manor

At 7 o'clock in the evening, Beiyue and Ding Ze came home together. When they opened the door, they were stunned. The dining table in the living room was filled with food, fresh water fish, seafood, vegetables, meat, etc., and more than a dozen dishes were full of flavors, which made people's index fingers move. The sound of washing the pot came from the kitchen. Soon Cui Ming brought out a bean sprout and saw the two of them. He was very polite: "Hello, boss, good Ding Ze."

Beiyue looked at the food and asked, "Did you make it?"

Cui Ming nodded: "Yes."

Bei Yue sat down and placed the cloth bag on the chair aside and said, "If you have this time, you can practice the next six more elements."

"Yes." Cui Ming also sat down with a knife and fork.

Ding Ze tried a sip of the fish soup and couldn't help but praise: "It's delicious. Cui Ming, when did you learn cooking skills?"

Cui Ming gave himself a meal and replied: "When I was in a charity school, I was often punished to help in the kitchen."

"Don't waste time on meaningless things." Beiyue ate some casually, picked up the cloth bag and went upstairs, and said before going upstairs: "The skill is good, you can prepare it. Today we are going to Lincoln Manor, Ding Ze, please introduce the situation."

Ding Ze nodded and watched Beiyue disappear, whispering: "Although the boss said that, he is very happy. You must keep this spirit, do you understand?"

I understand that Beiyue regards food as a necessity for survival, and you are lazy, so someone can get food. Cui Ming asked: "It seems that there has been a month since Lincoln Manor."

"Yes."

The investigation of Lincoln Manor has been ongoing for a month. During this month, Sheriff Evelyn also participated, but no discovery was made. The three even joined forces to surround each other, but no one was found. But every few days, the fourth room on the third floor of Lincoln Manor always lights up at night.

Beiyue Firm was commissioned by the special department 101 to charge a commission fee for investigation, but no progress has made Ding Ze and Beiyue quite helpless. Tomorrow is the last day. If there is no progress in the investigation, no compensation will be received.

Ding Ze said: "We are sure that a practitioner has entered Chuxiao City, and it is likely that he will live in Lincoln Villa, but he will never find his existence and will not know his purpose. You are very poor now and have almost no practical experience, so don't leave us too far tonight."

"I understand." Cui Ming nodded. As a rookie, humility is a necessary virtue.

“There is another important thing.”

"kindness?"

"Before getting so many dishes next time, you must call to notify me." Ding Ze sighed: "I'm already full in the fast food restaurant with my boss at the door of the office."

"kindness."

Beiyue went downstairs and changed into a black suit, a cloth bag on the outside, and seemed to want to say something, but she still didn't say anything. Sitting aside, Ding Ze winked: "I'll go change clothes."

Cui Ming quickly ate a few bites of rice, put the leftovers into the refrigerator, and changed his clothes...fitting jeans, leather boots, black T-shirt, and a black cloak jacket that reached the knee. It looked a bit like that.

Ding Ze was wearing a white coat, shirt, vest, and a rose with a handkerchief folded in the left pocket. The blonde hair was soft and down. What was unbearable was that he even put on a tie, which was handsome and suppressed Cui Ming without hesitation. Ding Ze was obviously very experienced in matching clothes. He looked at Cui Ming and said, "Your hairstyle is too bad."

"I'm never picky about free things." Cui Ming replied, keeping up with Beiyue's footsteps.

...

Lincoln Manor is a sparsely populated place, but it is a very famous manor. Lincoln is the third city lord after the overthrow of Chu Xiaocheng imperial system, and is also known as the best city lord. Under his leadership, Chu Xiaocheng's sea transportation will be connected to all continents, and Chu Xiaocheng has also become the largest export city for agriculture and handicraft manufacturing.

The Lincoln family is also a big family in Chu Xiaocheng. The family that existed more than a thousand years ago was once the noble hereditary aristocrat of Chu Xiaocheng Empire. Even today, it is still a family that has an important influence on Chu Xiaocheng's business and society. Therefore, Lincoln Manor has many employees. In addition to thirty security guards, there are more than 60 people including maids, housekeepers, drivers, gardeners, chefs, etc. to serve Lincoln Manor.

Since the abnormality was discovered, the police intervened in the investigation but failed. Sheriff Evelyn handed the matter over to Beiyue Firm and jointly investigated it several times, but nothing valuable was found. However, in a few days, the health of the manor's personnel was significantly affected. Under such circumstances, all the people in Lincoln Manor had been evacuated.

The Lincoln Manor building still retains traces from more than a thousand years ago, and it can be seen that it is a fort built on the mountain. After the imperial system was overthrown, many of the fortress buildings were flattened and built into a beautiful manor. Two kilometers away from the manor was a mountain range, with a curtain of waterfalls pouring down. The water flowed through the manor. It was originally built into a moat, but now a bridge has been built and turned into a small lake with unique and beautiful scenery outside the manor.

The car drove across the bridge and stopped in front of the large iron gate. The iron gate was ten meters high and had a small gate for entry and exit. On both sides were ten meters high city walls, which were the castles to resist the enemy at that time. The battlements on the city wall were still retained on it. The wall and the iron gate were also the only ancient building left behind. The inside and outside of the manor were pitch black. Beiyue turned off the headlights, and Cui Ming opened the practice in a hurry. His eyes were not affected by the light, and he clearly saw every grass and tree nearby.

"Let's go." Beiyue put a plaster on the sole of her feet, jumped directly to the city wall, and then to the manor.

Ding Ze raised his left hand lightly in front of his chest, and disappeared in a second, appearing above the city wall. Soon, his figure flashed and disappeared.

On tiptoe, on tiptoe... Cui Minglian gathered the force of the soles of his feet, and then he tiptoed and rushed up and flew to the city wall in a diagonal direction. Cui Ming was shocked when he saw the route, but he had no reaction. His body accurately hit the city wall, and then fell downwards, slamming firmly on the floor. The sound was so loud that five hundred meters could be transmitted from the quiet manor.

The Force was a little disintegrating and chaotic. Cui Ming was busy adjusting his state. He stood up and looked up. Beiyue stood on the city wall, stepped on the edge with one foot, looked at Cui Ming and asked, "What are you doing?"

"I……"

"Speed." Beiyue went back.

I jumped, and for the second time, Cui Ming went up and did not hit the city wall, but it seemed that the angle was too straight, and he was rising vertically... The inertia force ended, and Cui Ming, who had been suspended for 0.01 seconds, looked down at the bottom, and then smashed to the ground again.

The third time, Cui Ming warmed up first, took a few steps back, and then jumped up... His body hit the wall, but his inertia continued to move upwards. When the inertia was exhausted, Cui Ming tried hard to reach out his hands and finally grabbed the edge of the city wall. The force naturally appeared in his hand. With force, the person rushed out five or six meters and went up, but after jumping over the city wall, Cui Ming hit Lincoln Manor from a height of fifteen meters.

The smashing was very painful, and the whole body's force ran around, and it was only after refining. The body could not withstand the nonsense of the force, and the pain was unbearable. Cui Ming could only climb on the ground and breathe, let the force breathe, and slowly adjust, and finally restored his control of the force.
