Chapter 0175 - Master Hunter

“I’m really sorry. Although we really want to help you, you should be calling the police with your situation,” the old man softly rejected the commission.

“But reporting it to the police won’t be of use… Could you assign a Hunter Magician to protect me overnight, I can pay you immediately,” the young lady said.

“We don’t have any Hunter Magicians here at the moment, they are all out on an important missions,” the old man said.

The young lady’s face turned increasingly ugly. She never thought that personally coming all the way to the Clearsky Hunter Agency, they would choose to not take her job. They were still indifferent even with the money put in front of them.

“You...how could you be so heartless. If...if something happens to my family, I will never forgive you, even if I become a ghost!” The young lady stood up, her face filled with pain.

After saying this, she quickly turned around and ran out of the Clearsky Hunter Agency in depressed spirits.

Mo Fan could feel this young lady was very dispirited and felt a bit of pity toward her. He couldn’t help but ask, “Why didn’t you guys help her?”

Whether the lady’s husband had really turned into a Magical Beast, or someone else’s husband had killed someone, it didn’t matter. According to her description, you could tell she was in danger. She was even willing to pay them now, yet why did the old man still not take her up on the offer?

“Little friend, you can’t just look at the surface.” The old man tapped his pipe.

“What, could it be that there’s an ulterior motive?” Mo Fan rubbed his chin as he began to think over the matter like a detective.

“Look at this application.” The old man quickly extracted a contract from beneath the counter before tossing it to Mo Fan.

Mo Fan was a bit baffled, but he opened the contract.

The contract was very brief. The client wanted protection overnight. It was because the client suspected there was a great danger lurking near them, and that it would affect its child as well as the client.

The date for protection was tonight, and the date for signing the contract was also today. It was from roughly around 7 AM in the morning.

“What does this mean? Could it be that this person’s family also has a situation similar to the lady just now?” Mo Fan asked in astonishment.

The old man laughed and then pointed toward the address on the contract.

Mo Fan glanced at it and was shocked again.

“It’s actually the same address as that lady… how could this be!?” Mo Fan was flabbergasted when he saw this.

The address was actually on the privately owned garden to the south of the University area. That place was a wealthy residential area. When Mo Fan went on a stroll with his dorm mates, he had actually walked right past that place. It wasn’t too far away from Pearl Institute, so Mo Fan had some kind of impression of the address.

Originally when the lady had left in despair, Mo Fan had planned to intercept her and go take a look at what was going on. He had to go through that area when he headed back to the university, after all. What puzzled Mo Fan was what the situation inside really was...

“This contract was actually signed by me and the husband of the lady just now. The situation was essentially the same as what the woman described,” the old man said with a smile.

As Mo Fan heard this, he began to feel goosebumps!
