Gilan used so much force on his hands that he just wanted to strangle this guy to death.

But then he thought about it. He was new here and didn't know much about the situation in the capital, Musixiti. If he killed someone rashly, he might cause more trouble.

So, Gilan suppressed the murderous intention in his heart, turned to the familiar and asked:

"Can you erase the memory of him meeting me?"

"I'm sorry, Master." Vivi immediately grimaced. "Vivi can't do such a delicate operation... we can only erase his memory of today at once."

"Yeah." Gilan said solemnly. "Then let's do it."

"Yes, Master."

Vivi once again flew in front of Bondo and peered into his eyes.

But this time, after Vivi captured the other person's memory picture today, he suddenly raised his hand, and an invisible force was exerted. Those memories seemed to turn into colorful thin threads, twisted into a ball, and were pulled out and held in the palm of his hand.

Then crush it into pieces.

Bang!

A wisp of smoke escaped from between Vivi's fingers.

"That's enough, Master." Vivi flew back to his shoulder and said.

Gilan casually threw it away, throwing the unconscious Bondo on the ground.

Immediately afterwards, under his instructions, Vivi also erased the memories of everyone else in the room, so that these people did not remember seeing Gilan today.

Afterwards, based on Bondo's memory, Gilan took out an iron box from a secret compartment behind the sofa and took away nearly 300 Caesar of all the large and small banknotes inside. Even some coins of small denominations were not spared.

Since you dare not rob him if you don't have the foresight, you deserve some compensation.

Gilan said to himself that he was really poor, turned around and left.

Going down to the first floor, Vivi repeated his old tricks and once again used his mysterious power on the little guy behind the counter, erasing his memory.

Gilan strode out of the soda shop and left along the street to the north.

Under the brim of his hat, his face looked gloomy.

'I couldn't buy Mercury Battery and potion materials, and I couldn't even find any clues...'

Gilan feels secretly disappointed.

North Muse was dozens of kilometers apart in the south, so he simply took a taxi halfway and returned directly.

When we returned to Price Street, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon.

Gilan didn't eat, so he simply bought a few rolls and sandwiches from a bakery opposite the apartment for two people. As soon as he came out, he saw an old woman waving to him in front of a nearby grocery store.

He immediately remembered what old Charles said. This woman should be the wife of the landlord, Mr. De La Cruz.

"Mrs. Maslan?" Gilan walked over and said hello. "Are you calling me?"

The old woman wore a white embroidered dress, leg-of-mutton sleeves, a small waistcoat, and a lace cap on her head. Although she was old and her face was full of wrinkles, her eyes were still bright and kind.

"Yes." She said. As Gilan approached, she looked at it carefully a few more times and asked with some uncertainty, "Are you Mr. Gilan·Iros from Room 3201?"

"Well, it's me." Gilan nodded.

The landlady raised her eyebrows and smiled.

"It's like this. Mr. Charles who came to rent the house just came to see you, but you were not at home, so he left a letter with me and asked me to deliver it to you. Please wait a moment, I will get it right away."

With that said, she turned around and walked back to the grocery store. She quickly picked up another letter and handed it to Gilan.

Gilan took the letter and said thank you.

He said goodbye to the landlady, crossed the spacious road, entered the corridor door of the townhouse, and went straight to the third floor.

After returning to the apartment, he sat on the sofa and opened the letter.

Pull out the letter paper, spread it out and browse.

This was written temporarily by the old Charles. The general content is that Nancy Fahan, Gilan's second sister, invited him to Silver Lizard Club tomorrow to watch a fighting match.

Along with him, in addition to the other brothers and sisters, there were also several friends in their circle, all young people with prominent status.

Gilan didn't want to get involved, but old Charles seemed to know this, and gave a few extra instructions, indicating that this was the intention of Master Ramon, and asked him to go and have fun together, and not to appear too unsociable.

It's not a bad thing to get in touch with the upper class circles. It can not only expand your network but also increase your knowledge.

Finally, old Charles also said that the pocket money distributed to him by Mr. Ramon has been put into the envelope, please use it as you like.

Wow.

Gilan folded the letter paper and took out eight "10" denominations Gold Caesar from the envelope.

He held the wad of money and his eyes rested on the portrait of the head of state on the front of the banknote. He looked at the short-haired middle-aged man with narrow eyes and a hooked nose, and thought for a moment.

"Forget it, let's go there."

The reason why Gilan changed his mind was not only for Caesar's sake, but also for another reason.

After the transaction with South Muse's "Big Goose" failed, he had no better way to acquire Mercury Battery and the mysterious materials.

But in the upper class circles, there may be people who have such channels.

If he could get what he wanted, he wouldn't mind wasting some time participating in this boring social activity.

Of course, Fahan Family, as a count family, may have a way to help him get what he needs, but Gilan does not want to expose his secrets.

If possible, he would rather keep it hidden.

'If I go out tomorrow, I'll watch the movie at home today.'

Gilan thought.

Time was running out and he didn't want to waste a moment.

Only by continuously improving your own strength can you act more conveniently.

Although <Black Lake> has been drained of its use value, there are still two films <Moon-Scorched Village#1> and <Rongdeng Great Plague#2>.

There are still a lot of Mystery Points inside that you can get.

He has strong execution ability and does what he says.

I got up and went straight back to the master bedroom. After plugging in Mercury Battery to the projector, I took out <Moon-Scorched Village#1> and placed it on it.

Gilan closed the curtains in the room and flipped the switch in the darkness.

Click.

The projector started running, and a beam of light shone on the curtain.

Gilan calls out Vivi and lets it watch the movie with him.

As soon as one person used the magic to stare at the movie screen, they soon entered it.

A strong wind blew in from the train window.

Gilan once again sat on the leather bench on the left.

"Master, this is really interesting."

Vivi flapped its wings and said on Gilan's shoulder.

Its dark eyes scanned the train, looking at the other ten passengers and giggling.

"Do you enter a different world every time you watch a movie?"

Vivi asked curiously.

Gilan didn't answer because he didn't know.

Except for knowing that "True Film Reel" was created by February Director and "Director", the rest are shrouded in fog, full of mystery and unknown.

With a loud whistle, the train soon stopped in the forest.

The plot began to repeat itself again, and the passengers were nervous.

But Gilan did not intend to follow the previous strategy. Instead, he stood up directly and walked straight to the right bench in the second row at the front before Maive, the girl in the white dress, could come over.

There was a female student with long red hair sitting there.

At the beginning of the movie, it was she who got up first to investigate the situation on the train and returned to inform everyone that the train was empty.

At this time, the female student lowered her head and was rummaging around in a toolbox on her knees, looking anxious.

"Excuse me, what can I help you with?" Gilan asked.

Hearing the sound, the red-haired female student was startled.

She immediately turned around and saw that there was a handsome blond young man next to her. Judging from the way he was dressed, he looked like an upper class person.

"Ah..." the female student said quickly, "I lost my wrench. I originally planned to go to the boiler room to have a look. Maybe the screws were loose, causing a malfunction in the energy supply link."

"If this is the reason, I should be able to restart the train."

"Wrench?" Gilan raised his eyebrows.

"Yes." The female student nodded. "I remember keeping it in the tool box, but now I can't find it."

She looked distressed, and when she was stroking her hair, she accidentally got the oil dirt on her hands onto her cheeks.

There is a dark stain on the fair face, which is cute in a different way.
