Chapter 512 Scumbag

Berkshire City, early morning.

The sun has not yet appeared in this prosperous city, famous for its various "castles" and "manors". It was the last dark time. A pair of gray eyes appeared without warning. Then, Tang Qi's figure walked out of the void.

Behind him, the "strange thing" fell off, transparent and illusory, tentacles with cold and death breath, and together with the strange gray eyes, shrank into a small "death octopus", swimming and swallowed back into the belly by gluttony.

"A strange thing that is not cool and beautiful, but very practical."

Tang Qi looked at the things he had blackmailed with satisfaction, and when he nodded, his figure had already appeared in the city below.

This place is extremely far away from Blue Deer City or the entire Mihuang State, but it is somewhat close to the second largest city in the Federation, "Catha City", which is the second largest city in the United States.

According to the information provided by Ralph's daughter, Liya, because she was very close to her grandmother, Ralph's mother, she almost knew most of the trajectories of Ralph's life.

"As a genius, Ralph successfully admitted to Gatha University. After graduation, he should have a great future and stayed in a big city to work. But before that, Ralph decided to take a graduation trip, starting at Gatha City and ending at Blue Deer City... After seeing his mother, he would go find a job."

"But this trip changed his life, and the initial turning point was in Berkshire."

Tang Qi carried the suitcase and dressed in a "travelling pharmacist" with the most comfortable feeling. Following the message, Tang Qi walked through streets with rich style in the old calendar era and entered a relatively remote old street.

"Um?"

As soon as he stepped into it, a look of surprise appeared on Tang Qi's face.

I subconsciously looked at the sky again. It would be fine. It was only five or six in the morning.

The old street, which should have been deserted and quiet, was very lively at this time.

At least dozens of young men of different styles gathered in front of a building, and although they were all communicating with each other, the hostile look could not deceive people.

What happened? Tang Qi looked straight at the door number. The hard metal door number was eroded and rusty due to the passage of time, but the numbers and ancient federal fonts were still vaguely visible.

“42 Seifro Street, Fog Castle Office.”

Tang Qi silently recited the door sign, matched the information in his mind, and then walked towards the team.

Because of his outstanding appearance and natural affinity, he immediately caused riots in a team of young people of various styles. Dozens of "hostile" eyes shot over, and there were faint murmurings of dissatisfaction.

"Another one snatched food, it's over."

"I'm a homeless pharmacist, so beautiful."

"What should I do if my handsomeness is similar to mine, but my temperament is not as good as his?"

"He is an outsider, we have to work together to exclude him, and it's better to let him leave."

"Or try to buy money, this guy must be very poor."

The sharp hearing brought all these sounds into his ears. Tang Qi's mouth curled up a curve and walked straight to the end of the team. There was a young man with black hair, thin and feminine hair, and a dark shadow, with a rich Gothic style.

Tang Qi stood in front of him and asked Heshan: "May I ask? What happened here?"

The rest of the people who followed his dynamic thought the feminine youth would refuse. Who knew that he was just stunned for a moment and immediately said quickly: "The old lady Charlotte of the Mist Castle is recruiting a caregiver, asking for young, handsome and strong."

After the feminine young man finished speaking, he added with a tangled expression: "The old lady Charlotte said that those who accompany her to the end of her life can obtain her inheritance... Although I don't know why the caregivers who have been recruited many times before were not recognized by the old lady Charlotte, everyone decided to come and try their luck."

When Tang Qi heard the next sentence, his face immediately showed his understanding.

As long as you accompany and take care of an old lady who is dying, you can get a large inheritance, and many young people who do not have serious jobs will not refuse.

In his mind, messages from "Mist Castle" and the "Old Lady Charlotte" flashed out one after another, and his expression gradually became strange.

At this time, the warm sunshine finally began to rise, dispelling the darkness that enveloped Berkshire. The team of dozens of handsome men began to stir up, because some movement came from behind the rusty portal in front.

The person in charge of recruitment is about to appear and recruitment is about to begin.

Before the young people could do something to Tang Qi, the "competitor", the invisible fluctuations suddenly overflowed.

When a "red" was cast, the lively team immediately stopped, and then they also strengthened a new idea that rose in their hearts:

"I want to fight myself and not be a shameless little boy!"

In such a low growl, dozens of handsome men clenched their fists and dispersed with fighting spirit on their faces.

When an old man with white hair, face and arms full of age spots, opened the door with "hard" and saw the lively scenes many times, but this time it did not appear.

All he saw was a young figure, illuminating the warm sunshine, walking towards him.

The old man squinted his eyes and only after a few seconds did he see clearly that this was an overly young man who seemed to be a wandering pharmacist.

Then, he saw the young man coming up, and smiled brightly in his surprised gaze, saying, "Hello, I'll apply for a nursing job."

...

In the morning, a worthwhile black classic car drove away from the city center and drove up the suburb "Berkshire".

In the car, Alfred, who was showing his old driver's style, drove skillfully into the mountain, while looking at Tang Qi through the rearview mirror, and asked curiously: "A pharmacist like you is willing to become a male caretaker? You know, it will be very hard and without dignity."

"Although the lady was very beautiful when she was young, she was so old after all, and she had a bad temper."

When Tang Qi heard this, he glanced at the old white man thoughtfully and continued to maintain his character.

He smiled brightly and replied softly: "As you can see, I am just a wandering pharmacist, and my travel expenses have been used up. If I take care of Mrs. Charlotte for a while, I can get the right reward, why don't I do it?"

"And, even if I don't get paid, I'm willing to help a lonely old man."

As Tang Qi said, he occasionally glanced at the desolate scenery that kept passing through the window, which was not very consistent with some pictures in the message given by Liya.

Mount Berkshire, which is more beautiful than "Dear Mountain", is reflected in Donqi's eyes but is extremely desolate. All the trees have become bare, black and gray, contaminated with everything. It seems difficult to find other creatures except the crows that occasionally fly over.

In the strange tranquility, there seems to be an indescribable terrible life.

Soon, the classic car was creaking, rolling over the stone bridge that seemed to have not been swept for many years, and driving along the abandoned manor passage to a huge ancient castle.

Tang Qi got out of the car and closed the car door with a "bang".

At this moment, Alfred's voice came from behind. The old man did not get out of the car, but just looked at Tang Qi, with a hint of regret hidden in his eyes, and said, "Sir, if you regret it, I can take you back now."

"People like you are really not suitable for this job. Those idle gangsters in Berkshire may be more suitable."

The keen perception made Donqi easily hear the hidden meaning of Alfred's words, so he waved his hand and said without looking back: "Go back, Alfred, your job is over, and the recruitment matters will be cancelled."

Upon hearing this, Alfred was stunned at first, then his eyes became confused and he replied submissively: "Yes, sir."

Tang Qi stood in front of the castle and looked at the thick, dark mist flowing down from the distant mountains, covering the castle. The fog filled the area, making the area gloomy and terrifying.

In his eyes, intermittent fragments of information emerged.

"The fallen soul...pollution..."

Tang Qi, who had already had some vague guesses, sighed lightly when he thought of the information provided by Liya, then broke a dead branch and entered the castle without hesitation.

Although Tang Qi was here for the first time, he showed no sign of getting lost, because the moment he stepped into the castle, the hoarse and sad sound of piano suddenly came, leading Tang Qi through the garden, corridor, room, and finally appeared in a side hall.

At the end of the front, in front of an extremely old piano, there was an old figure wearing a big red skirt.

She seemed extremely devoted and played a song called "Heart Finger". The work of a composer a hundred years ago describes love at first sight.

But the song that should have been cheerful and sweet, played from the old back was hoarse and sad, even with a hint of chilling horror.

When Tang Qi walked over, he saw a photo of a little girl on the cabinet, desk or wall.

Her age is about fifteen or sixteen years old.

In the photo, she has blonde hair and fair skin. Most of her hair is wearing red skirts and various hats. Her appearance is amazing and exudes an amazing sweet atmosphere.

The sound of the piano has stopped at some point.

The extremely old voice penetrated Tang Qi's ears.

"When I was young, did I look good?"

Accompanied by the sound, was the positive image of the old figure slowly turning.

The first thing that came to my eyes was a face that was enough to make people collapse instantly, with sparse blonde hair combed backwards, covered with wrinkles, as if the skin that was about to be broken at any time was tightly stuck to the bones, the eye sockets, nostrils and mouth were all rotten, and fat maggots were twisting in it, gnawing at the remaining rotten meat.

In order to make her look good, she also applied lipstick, bright red.

Boom!

When she turned around, the originally colorful and magnificent side hall seemed to have accelerated tens of thousands of times, everything was decaying, mottled colors climbed up, and the choking dust flew in the air, and those heart-pounding photos faded quickly.

The sweet girl inside is being replaced by a disgusting old woman.

Suddenly, a light breeze blew over in front of Tang Qi's eyes. With a blink of an eye, the disgusting, crazy face almost touched his face, and the foul smell accompanied by a terrible breath spewed over.

"Answer, do I... look good?"

This horrifying change could not make Tang Qi's expression change even a little.

He seemed to have guessed this would happen, and sighed in his heart: "Scumbag, it's such a sin."
