Chapter 541: Hero or Elite

Not knowing what happened after he left, with the good habit that doing a mission should have a beginning and an end, Leon found the mission target again according to the location in his soul vision.

Hm... didn't look closely because he ran too fast when saving people before, this daughter of the Charle Department Store boss, the back looks a bit familiar?

Looking at the woman who was climbing on the iron fence with her butt stuck up, trying several times but failing to climb out, Leon hesitated slightly, then tried to ask:

"Ms. Amy?"

"Ah!"

Hearing the voice behind her, the woman on the fence was anxious, her left foot that was barely stepping on the fence stepped into the air, and she fell backward with a scream.

"Careful!"

Looking at her head-first posture, worrying that she would fall and get hurt, Leon ran two steps quickly, stretched out his arms to catch her, and after helping the doll-faced girl with a pale face stand firm, seeing that she was still terrified, Leon comforted her:

"Don't worry, Ms. Amy, the matter of the Maseini family has been solved, you are very safe now."

"I... Mr. Leon?"

After finally seeing Leon's face, Amy, who had recovered, couldn't help but be startled, then seemed to understand something, and said with a face full of surprise:

"Just now... was it also you? Was it you who saved me?"

"It was me."

Looking at this familiar doll face, Leon was also surprised:

"You are actually the daughter of the Charle Department Store boss?"

"I... I really am. Sorry, I haven't told you before..."

After answering Leon's question with a stammer, the doll-faced girl, who had accumulated a belly of questions, couldn't help but ask with a face full of incomprehension:

"Just now... how did you disappear with a 'whoosh'? Also, did you put a bomb on the wall? Why did the wall explode wherever you walked? And also..."

"This... how about tomorrow? Your family must be worried sick. Now I will send you home, and I will tell you tomorrow."

After throwing out "definitely tomorrow" as an answer again, because he refused to answer her questions, Leon also had quite a few questions he couldn't ask, so he grabbed the railing and pretended to exert force, then secretly used the power of the Holy Spirit Pendant to bend the railing, opened a gap wide enough for people to pass through, and pulled the doll-faced girl to bow and drill out.

Phew... finally escaped!

Although it was just passing through one more fence, for Amy who had been locked up for several days, it was completely escaping from the mark of the Maseini family.

After exhaling unconsciously, she patted her flat chest, then secretly looked at the back of a certain man, feeling her heartbeat accelerate slightly.

First, because of the department store, she found a man who looked very suitable to be a husband, and just prepared to move over to be his neighbor to deepen her understanding, but was kidnapped on the way to move.

Then she was locked in a dim small black room, spent several days in fear, and was finally saved, and the person who saved her happened to be the man she liked!

Oh my, this is really...

Although the way he saved her was not by carrying her like a princess, but by carrying her on his shoulder like a sack, almost making her vomit, but this should also count as a hero saving a beauty, right?

Secretly holding the held hand tighter, feeling that warmth with inexplicable security, Amy couldn't help but blush and whispered softly:

"Mr. Leon, thank you for coming to save me! I will definitely repay you well!" "This is not needed."

Hearing her words, Leon, who was waiting for the car by the road, shook his head and answered quite honestly:

"The reason I came to save you is mainly because your father found our bureau, hoping we could help, and then the director assigned the task of saving you to me. As for the reward for saving you, your father has already paid it in advance."

"So that's how it is..."

The style of the hero saving the beauty suddenly turned into a workplace elite. The doll-faced girl's face collapsed, and most of the pink bubbles in her mind were poked. However, hearing Leon mention Old Charle, her expression became nervous again, biting her lip and asking with some worry:

"By the way, I was kidnapped for these few days, my parents must be worried sick. Are they okay now?"

"I haven't seen them, but there shouldn't be any big problems."

Leon thought for a while and answered:

"After your father came to the door, our director had someone investigate his situation, saying that although your father was a bit haggard, his spirit was quite good. Your mother was sick from excessive worry, but the illness was not serious. I guess she will be fine when you go back."

As long as they are fine...

After asking about her parents' situation, the doll-faced girl felt slightly relieved, then bit her lip again and invited tentatively:

"Mr. Leon, you helped my family so much, so... if you are convenient, can you come to my house as a guest in two days? I want to thank you properly."

In two days... that happens to be the succession ceremony of the Laien family, and the investigators from the General Bureau should arrive tomorrow morning. It definitely won't work.

"Seems not convenient."

Leon thought for a while and shook his head:

"I happen to have something to do in two days, I shouldn't have this time, and you really don't need to thank me... Oh right, do you have money on you?"

"Ah? Yes, yes!"

Hearing Leon's words, the doll-faced girl hurriedly searched and took out an exquisite cowhide small wallet from her skirt pocket, took out a stack of bearer checks with a face value of 10 gold wheels and handed them over, then said somewhat embarrassedly:

"I was kidnapped a bit suddenly, I didn't bring much money. Is this enough?"

"..."

Forget it... pretend I didn't ask.

Looking at the checks in front of him that were enough to pay his salary for more than half a year, Leon was silent for a while, then pushed the checks back speechlessly, then searched in his pocket, found that the number of copper wheels was not enough, and had to take out a silver wheel and hand it to her, then pointed to the steam carriage that was approaching and instructed:

"I'm not on the same way as you. When the carriage comes, you take the car home directly. Remember to hide your checks on the way, don't get kidnapped again just after I saved you.

Also, it's a little over nine kilometers from Redwood Avenue to the headquarters of Charle Department Store. 5 kilometers cost two copper wheels, and the remaining four kilometers cost one copper wheel per kilometer. If you get off half a street early, it only costs 6 copper wheels... forget it, give me back the money first!"

Although in the past few contacts, he felt that she was not the type of young lady who didn't know the world, but the other party took out his salary for a year as soon as she reached into her pocket, Leon still received a quite huge shock, worrying that she would really do the act of paying the car fare with checks.

After handing the silver wheel to the carriage driver and asking for the change of three copper wheels in advance, Leon carefully remembered the number at the tail of the steam carriage, only then did he feel relieved to send the doll-faced girl away. Then, he beckoned another carriage, sat on it, counted a handful of copper wheels and handed them to the carriage driver.

"No. 35 Bridge Street, Happiness Apartment."
