Chapter 15 The Leading Party(2/2)
In the Whispering Plaza, newcomers who come here and claim to want to know everything are usually adventurers who don't know the world, or powerful dragons with extraordinary strength and profound backgrounds.
She subconsciously looked at the guest in front of her, and the distant feeling of disappearance made her have to brace herself up, for fear that if she was not careful, the visitor would disappear from her sight again.
Her eyes involuntarily fell on the rabbit ears on the other person's head. This unique symbol confused her and made it difficult to judge the true identity of the visitor in front of her. The Whispering Square gathered races from all planes, and behind every new face
They may all hide unknown stories.
But for a newcomer who knows nothing about the Whispering Square, especially one who proposes to "know everything" in such a direct way, there is a high probability that he is pointing to humans.

Eloldis struggled in her heart. The other party had really found someone. In the Whispering Square, in the Magic Fountain Area, she, Eloldis Star Eyes, indeed had all the first-hand information in this area.
She herself is the leader of information dealers in this area, and she knows every corner of the square and the ins and outs of every shop.
Faced with a visitor like the Moon Rabbit, Eloldis had to weigh his options.
On the one hand, she hopes to maintain the neutrality of her shop and herself and provide help to those seeking knowledge; on the other hand, she must also consider the general attitude of the Whispering Square towards human beings.
In this multi-racial society, hostility to humans will be amplified, and hatred of humanism has become a common emotion.
She knows that any race that favors humans will encounter varying degrees of rejection and hostility here, which may not only endanger her own safety, but may also affect her business and status in the square.
"Does my request embarrass you?" The Moon Rabbit's voice was cold and direct, interrupting Eloldis's contemplation. Her words were concise, but they directly touched the hesitation and struggle in Eloldis's heart.
Eloldis felt a bit of pressure, and her heart became nervous due to Moon Rabbit's straightforward question.
She looked at the Moon Rabbit, and those eyes that were vaguely visible through the rabbit mask were indifferent and cold, which made Eloldis feel a feeling that could not be easily ignored.
Facing the Moon Rabbit's inquiry, Eloldis tried to keep a sneer on his face and tried to answer in a relaxed tone: "Guest, am I appraising the price?"
Although she said this, in fact, she was already thinking about whether she should directly drive away this uninvited visitor.
In the complex environment of Whispering Square, where multiple races coexist, any careless behavior may lead to unpredictable consequences.
Eloldis was born into a family of halflings with a deep interest in the stars.
Since she was a child, she has been attracted by her family's stories and knowledge about celestial bodies and astrology, and this interest has only become stronger as she grows older.
Her curiosity drove her to study astrology in depth, and she spent decades traveling around the world to learn from astrologers of all races.
This process not only enriched her knowledge base but also honed her skills.
In the year of her 70th birthday, Eloldis decided to share her accumulated knowledge and enthusiasm with the wider world, so she opened the Thousand Eyes Star Observation House in Whisper Square.
This decision made her a respected astrologer in the square. However, after all, her shop is self-operated by herself. She cannot compare with the big forces with huge capital and talents. She can open a shop on this street.
Being an intelligence dealer relies on absolute neutrality and one's own agility.
Now, she felt that she should drive away the uninvited guest in front of her - he might bring bloody disaster to the Whispering Square.
"Guest, how about this..." Old Eloldis began to try to deal with this difficult request in a vague way, hoping to send the Moon Rabbit away amicably. However, she had not finished her words.
, the Moon Rabbit directly interrupted her.
"Five million dollars." The Moon Rabbit interrupted Eloldis, "And I guarantee that as long as you don't tell anyone, no one will know that the information came from you. And, in the future, you or your
If something happens in the store, I will help you."
Ah this...
The figure of five hundred thousand made the old woman's heart beat violently.
A single order costs 500,000 yuan. She doesn’t necessarily need this amount for a year.
For foreigners, if there is 10% profit, they will ensure that it is used everywhere; if there is 20% profit, they can become active; if there is 50% profit, they will take risks; for 100% profit
, they dare to trample all extraordinary laws; with more than 300% profit, they dare to commit any crime, and even risk being dismembered by the angels of heaven.
Moreover, the promise made by the Moon Rabbit is a strong guarantee for her, which means that this unusual customer not only has the ability to pay the fee, but also can provide her or her store with services in the future.
help.
The balance in his heart tilted rapidly, and Eloldis made a decision quickly.
"Are you willing to sign a confidentiality agreement on a contract made of [golden bark]? If you are willing, the deal is done." There was no longer any hesitation in her tone, and her principles and scruples seemed to be thrown away.
The back of the head.
"Of course." A bright smile appeared behind the mask of the Moon Rabbit, but it was a pity that Eloldis couldn't see it.
She didn't know what kind of savage beast her behavior of leading the way had introduced into the Whispering Square.
Moreover, didn’t Eloldis guess the power behind the Moon Rabbit?
Not necessarily, she just doesn't care.
As long as she can make money and take care of herself, she doesn't care about the floods that will follow!

Honkai Authority Headquarters Helselem Tower.
In the Helselem Tower at the headquarters of the Honkai Authority, night is like a mysterious veil, wrapping this tower that represents power and wisdom in tranquility and darkness.
"Transfer one million to the bearer [debit card] account I just reported. You mean bill reimbursement? No, you don't need to report it to the Kingdom of Heaven, just transfer it directly to me. Yes, go to Eddie, who is stationed in Wudu.
Just tell me my name at the bank in the west." Xia Xiu stood in the office, next to the floor-to-ceiling observation glass window, through which he could see the bright starry sky outside and the bustling city below.
He was holding a silver cane and was communicating with the authority's finance department via a virtual phone channel.
On the other end of the phone channel, the voice from the Finance Department responded respectfully and quickly:
"Yes, I will do it now!"
Pfft——
The disconnection sound of the phone channel echoed in the quiet office, marking the official end of the communication between Xia Xiu and the Finance Department.
Immediately, his attention returned to the space in front of him, where virtual projection screens appeared, displaying the messages sent to him by the Moon Rabbit.
Against the backdrop of the night, these light curtains look like stars suspended in the sky. Each screen carries important information from the Whispering Square.
Xia Xiu stood in front of these virtual screens, his blond hair shining softly in the dim light of the office, his golden eyes reflecting the flow of information on the screen, and his expression full of concentration.

"It's really prosperous."
Under the night, his standing figure looked particularly lonely and determined. His blond hair flashed in the dim light, and his golden eyes reflected the information on the virtual screen in front of him.
With a soft murmur, he stretched out his right hand and spread his fingers. The movement was slow and full of meaning.
At this moment, under the night sky, he seemed to have the power to hold up the sky and hold the fate of Whispering Square in his hands.
Under his palm is a virtual map of the entire topography of Whispering Square. The details are clear and every street and shop can be seen at a glance. This map is a comprehensive grasp of Whispering Square and preparation for the upcoming action.
Xia Xiu's five fingers slowly closed together, and the detailed map seemed to have encountered an invisible force, gradually falling into boundless darkness, and finally disappeared, as if it had been mercilessly swallowed.
