Chapter 563

The celebration party of the Marcus family lasted a whole day. When Zhang Cheng returned to his Long Island villa in New York, it was the afternoon of the next day.

When he opened the door and went into the living room to surprise his girlfriend, he was surprised to find that Elizabeth was sitting with a middle-aged man who looked a little untidy in his early 40s.

On the table between them, there are also more than 20 color photos.

"Ah! Dear! When did you come back?" Elizabeth found her boyfriend, immediately threw away the picture in her hand, opened her arms and gave her a warm hug and kiss.

"Just back! Who is this gentleman? Don't you introduce him to me?" Zhang Cheng glanced at each other with a little curiosity.

"Hello, sir. My name is Terry. I'm a private detective." the middle-aged man stood up and took the initiative to introduce himself.

"Private detective?" Zhang Cheng's eyes revealed a trace of doubt.

Because in the United States, private detectives are equivalent to a kind of folk investigation organization. Generally, they are hired to either find things, or find people, or collect the black history of enemies or competitors. Anyway, it is by no means a good thing.

"That's right! I'm hiring Terry to help find my biological parents." Elizabeth said her purpose without trying to hide anything.

Obviously, like most orphans, she is eager to find her parents and find out why she was abandoned. Even if she is a little naive, it always ends in tragedy.

Zhang Cheng couldn't understand the meaning behind this behavior. His eyes revealed a confused light: "why?"

Elizabeth replied with a bitter smile, "I don't know why. Maybe I just want an answer. Maybe it's like finding out who I am and whether there are other brothers and sisters. Why, do you object?"

"No! As long as you are happy." Zhang Cheng shrugged his shoulders indifferently.

Just when he wanted to turn around and leave, he suddenly remembered something. He immediately stopped and asked the middle-aged man standing aside: "detective, does your business include investigating shipwrecks?"

"Shipwreck?! what kind of shipwreck?" Terry's face showed interest.

"A Spanish treasure ship that was silent at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean in the 16th century is called the queen of fire. I also have a logbook here, which is said to have been written by the captain of another ship with me." Zhang Cheng took out the old notebook full of Spanish from his pocket.

"Spanish treasure ship? My God! It's a little blood boiling!" Terry whispered as he quickly flipped through his notes.

He was obviously very proficient in Spanish and didn't encounter any obstacles in reading. After seven or eight minutes, he looked up and said, "although I'm not an expert in navigation, it's not difficult to find a general area with this log as a reference. Now the question is, how much are you willing to pay to hire me and how much are you going to pay to seal my mouth."

"How much do you want?" Zhang Cheng asked with a smile.

"Half a million! Give me half a million dollars! In a week, I promise to give you a search range with a radius of no more than 100 nautical miles, and I promise I will never tell anyone about the sunken ship." Terry directly chose the lion to speak.

Although he prefers to share in the valuable treasure of sunken ships, considering that it is not easy to salvage sunken ships in the endless Atlantic Ocean, especially if the sunken position is too deep and can not be salvaged with the current scientific and technological ability, it is most practical to get the US dollar first.

"Hehe, 500000? You really dare to speak. But it doesn't matter. As long as you can give me accurate information, I don't mind satisfying your little greed. But remember, if I find you fooling me, the result is not just to recover the 500000. I will take your life and soul." Zhang Cheng threatened meaningfully.

There is no doubt that he knows the other party's hidden desire, but he is not ready to bargain.

Because for him, the dollar is now meaningless waste paper, or a series of figures in his bank account.

These things can neither bring strength nor acquire the knowledge he desires

A few minutes later, Terry left the villa with a signed check for 500000.

The poor man didn't know who he was dealing with, nor what painful price he would pay if he broke his oath. His mind was full of how to make a fortune by taking advantage of this opportunity.

Standing on the balcony on the second floor, watching the private detective's car disappear at the end of the kilometer, Elizabeth suddenly hugged Zhang Cheng's waist from behind, smiled and seduced: "honey, I learned some ways to absorb magic at the auction. Why don't we try it now?"

"As you wish, my lady." the latter, learning the etiquette of the ancient Middle Ages, turned and kissed the girl on the back of her hand.

As usual, the two of them quickly returned to the soft big bed in the room and began an in-depth discussion on the topic of "magic absorption".

……

At the same time, in the desolate castle of hell, another pair of dog men and women are also busy, preparing to build a transmission array to summon mortals.

Since hell is not strictly monitored and managed like human beings, generally speaking, as long as the target responds to the call, it can be transmitted immediately. There is no so-called situation of being found and then expelled.

"Are you sure that young wizard will answer our call?" Nisa didn't ask her cheating lover.

"Of course! Maybe other wizards won't listen to the call from hell, but he will. You don't understand how arrogant and arrogant this guy is in his heart." Bolun promised without hesitation.

He can't wait to summon his allies and jointly kill the female demon lord in front of him so that he can replace him.

Although this land is extremely desolate, it is at least a territory that can be used to build a logistics base to continuously supplement its strength.

What's more, the demon lords fought against each other as often as they ate and drank water.

He believed that he would take advantage of this opportunity to attack all the surrounding lords and become the Supreme Master of this marginal land.

"Well, I'll trust you for once."

Nisa seemed to be aware of Bolun's impending ambition. A trace of fear flashed in her eyes and motionless made a gesture to a little devil not far away.

After receiving the order, the latter quickly left the castle and flew to another demon lord's fortress hundreds of kilometers away
