Chapter 298 A sudden second opportunity
"Gold Cup?"
Chen Lun took the golden cup from the faceless waiter's tray.
He examined the cup for a moment and found that it was made of solid gold and was valuable, but the symbolism attached to it was even more valuable because it was the identification of a senior member of the Murder Club.
Moreover, like an ordinary wine glass token, it has the function of summoning a messenger.
"Thank you."
Chen Lun held the golden cup and chuckled.
"Mr. Qiao Ke, members of the Golden Cup have great authority, second only to the 'Knights of the Round Table'. Not only can you accept any commission on the 'Commission Menu', you also have a free opportunity to ask for help once a month. Just tap the Golden Cup. Three times, you can call the members of the Murder Club to help in the battle."
The faceless waiter patiently explained to him.
"Furthermore, the 'wine recycling department' inside the club will charge you a higher recycling price in the future, reaching a level close to the market price... Finally, you have the qualifications to submit a letter to the 'Knights of the Round Table'. Your will will Will be seen by the Knights of the Round Table.”
"Okay, I get it."
Chen Lun put away the gold cup, then took out four gold pounds and placed them on the tray.
“It’s something worth celebrating, double the tip.”
"Mr. Qiao Ke, thank you for your generosity."
The faceless waiter bowed.
After it leaves.
Chen Lun continued to sit on the sofa in the study and think.
‘Knights of the Round Table? I had only heard of it in my previous life, and it should be equivalent to the absolute top people in the Zhengshen Church. They are all high-ranking beings... It seems that the high-profile actions during this period have attracted the attention of many people. ’
He smiled.
'But becoming a member of the Gold Cup directly is a bit unexpected... It's always a good thing, it's one more card that can be played. ’

Two days later.
Miss Tracy paid a personal visit.
"Viscount Tracy, please follow me."
Floy said calmly, then turned and headed towards the main building villa.
Tracy politely refused to follow the two bodyguards, whispered instructions to the coachman, and quickly followed Floy. The two of them walked slowly along the path of the winery, one behind the other.
"Hey, Miss Floy, please call me Terrier... Mr. Jack also called me that."
Tracy said with a chuckle.
"Well..."
Floy just responded calmly.
Tracy seemed a little embarrassed. She felt that this girl seemed difficult to get along with.
He quietly looked at the back of the blind girl in black dress, and was secretly surprised that her temperament and appearance were better than those of countless women he had seen.
"Miss Floy, I heard that you are Mr. Jack's sister?"
Tracy asked in a friend-to-friend tone.
"No."
Floy's answer was succinct.
"Then you and Mr. Jack are...?"
Tracy was a little surprised and confused.
Floy stopped at the door of the main building villa, turned slightly, with a smile on his face:
"What do you think?"
She raised her hands on her lower abdomen and opened the door.
"Here we are, please come in, Viscount Tracy."
"Um...thank you."
Tracy responded with a smile, and then walked into the villa, still muttering in her mind whether she had offended this young lady in some way.
Chen Lun was still reading in the study. He searched through the books originally left at the winery, but found no mysterious books, which made him a little disappointed.
After receiving the notification, he went downstairs.
When he saw Miss Tracy sitting on the sofa and Floy standing aside with a faint smile on her face, Chen Lun felt bad.
"Miss Trier, welcome to Jack's Winery."
He laughed twice and stepped forward to say hello.
"Mr. Jack."
Tracy stood up immediately and walked forward enthusiastically, ready to hug Chen Lun face to face.
But Chen Lun had quick eyesight and quick hands, and he stabilized the other party's shoulders, pulled him back to sit on the sofa, and sat on the sofa opposite Tracy.
"Floy, why are you standing? Come sit here."
He turned to look at Floy and smiled.
Floy hummed slightly, but did not walk over immediately. Instead, he turned around and went to the kitchen, made three cups of tea and brought it over.
"Thank you."
Tracy thanked her.
Her eyes wandered over Floy and Chen Lun for two rounds, and she already had some guesses in her mind. Her original joy when she arrived couldn't help but become a little depressed.
After Floy put down the tea cup, she sat down next to Chen Lun, placing her hands gently on her thighs, looking as quiet as an exquisite doll.
Tracy looked away, took a deep breath, squeezed out a smile and said:
"Mr. Jack, I came to visit you this time because there is news from the college area... the student named 'Francis' has been found."
Chen Lun was a little surprised.
He didn't expect things to progress so quickly.
"Thank you, Trier."
Chen Lun thanked him and was glad that he asked Tracy to help.
The three of Golov alone are still a bit weak and cannot cover everything.
After some exchanges, he got some information from Tracy.
It turns out that the appearance of Francis can be regarded as some kind of accident, because this student is not a native of Peacock City, but a transfer student who has just arrived here from a foreign country and is studying at Omto College.
According to Tracy, Francis seemed to be a distant relative of a certain director of Omto College, and it took a lot of money to successfully arrange for him to study at the college.
'No wonder I couldn't find this person before. It turned out to be a transfer student from another city... I came a little earlier. ’
Chen Lun suddenly understood.
‘But it’s okay this way, I can keep an eye on him immediately, and if I find traces of a second opportunity, I can get it in time. ’

That afternoon.
Chen Lun then set off for the college area.
He planned to go over and observe Francis in person to see what was so special about this man. People who have opportunities usually have something good about them.
Maybe, there are already signs now, and I can find the second opportunity through clues.
Chen Lun was still dressed like a gentleman, with a black hat and a silver cane that remained unchanged forever. He arrived at the college area in a taxi and got off at the gate of Omto College.
After paying the toll of more than 80 copper crowns, he looked around.
The entrance to Omto Academy is a huge stone arch, giving people a sense of gravity and solemnity, with tree-lined paths on both sides. The environment of the college area is very good, the degree of greening is much higher than that of other areas, and the streets are also very spacious, giving people a quiet and comfortable feeling.
Students come and go in groups of twos and threes. They are all between seventeen or eighteen years old and in their early twenties, and they are full of youthful vitality.
With the development of the college area, there is no longer only Omto College. There are four or five schools in the surrounding area, all of which are universities. Therefore, the uniforms or badges worn by these students are more or less different.
But they also have something in common, that is, they all carry purses or books in their hands, giving people a sense of an excellent academic atmosphere.
Chen Lun held his silver cane and walked straight into Omto University.
After passing through the huge arched door, he came to a main road with huge lawns on both sides, clean and tidy.
Although he lowered the brim of his hat, his temperament and unconcealable handsome face still attracted the attention of many female students.
These young girls are in the budding stage of love and always have strong curiosity and yearning for handsome and handsome people of the opposite sex.
When they saw this young gentleman, they stopped unconsciously, kept staring at him with red faces, and even joked with their companions, instigating each other to come forward and ask for his contact information.
‘After possessing [Ultimate Beauty], the charm value has reached 40 points, which is basically equivalent to walking hormones... These mortal girls cannot resist the temptation at all. ’
Chen Lun once again declined the date invitation from the two female students, glanced around without leaving a trace, and sighed secretly in his heart.
‘Well, you can’t say that...’
He then noticed that in addition to the female students on campus, there were even many male students and two stray cats, staring directly at him.
When Chen Lun saw this, he couldn't help but shake his head and immediately quickened his pace.
Following the guidance of the staff, he quickly arrived at the college's football field. At this time, many students were playing sports on the field. Chen Lun found Francis at the wide ladder steps on one side.
What surprised him was that besides Francis, there was also a familiar face.
"Lucy, Lucy! Wait for me, don't go so fast!"
A young man with short tawny hair was holding a book and chasing a beautiful girl. Both of them were wearing the blue and white uniforms of Omto Academy, but the girl's unusual appearance made this ordinary outfit look particularly eye-catching.
Especially the long dark green hair and a pair of slender thighs are the finishing touch.
Lucy, the succubus girl, looked impatient. She seemed to have had enough of Francis's entanglement. She sat down on the seat on the steps, holding her elbows with her hands, without even glancing at the young man beside her.
"What's going on? Just tell me quickly... and then stay away from me."
Lucy said coldly.
Her face was facing the football field, but her attention was obviously not on the group of boys who were sweating and trying to win the attention of their female classmates.
"Hey, Lucy, look what I found..."
Francis sat next to Lucy very attentively, and then handed the book in his hand to the other party like a treasure.
"This is a book I found accidentally when I went to the library today...it contains a lot of profound knowledge and secrets about the world."
Francis eagerly shared the surprise.
"I bet that the author named 'Carmen' is definitely an unknown figure, just like the legendary hermit and magician, possessing extraordinary mysterious power!"
"Oh..."
Lucy curled her lips and didn't seem to be cold.
She took the old book and asked in a lazy tone:
"Then did you learn any magic from this 'great book'?"
"Um..."
Francis smiled awkwardly and coughed twice.
"No...no, I can't understand it at all."
Immediately, he regained his confident expression, patted his chest and said:
"But as long as you give me some more time, I will definitely be able to decipher the mystery! So I sincerely invite you, lovely Miss Lucy, to study it with me... I believe that in the end we can all have that extraordinary Mysterious power!”
Lucy looked at him with a strange look, and finally shrugged:
"I'll go back and take a look first. If I'm interested, I'll reply to you."
After saying that, she got up and left with the book.
Frances was left alone to sit there, blushing, watching Lucy leave with fascinated eyes.
But what he didn't see was.
After Lucy turned the road at the end of the steps of the football field, she bumped into a gentleman in a black hat, and then showed a look of surprise and admiration.
"Mr. Jack!"(End of Chapter)
