Chapter 407


    "I have important matters to deal with, and I''d like to meet Master Gordon now. Can you guys please


    step aside? Thank you in advance," Vania spoke politely.


    The head security let out a heartyugh upon hearing her words. "You just want to ask Master Gordon


    about The Great Chemist''s whereabouts, right? Is that the important matter you''re referring to?" The


    other three security guards began tough as well.


    Vania frowned as she didn''t understand why they showed such a huge reaction to her words. "There


    are tons of rich people like you whoe looking for our master with the same excuse," one of the


    security guards said. All the guards were sick for the same reason—they wanted to hear something


    new for once.


    "I—" Vania barely got anything out of her mouth before another one of the security guards interrupted


    her. "Leave. Hurry and leave now! Our master refuses to meet anyone," he said. Then, he waved his


    arms around to chase them out.


    There was a hint of annoyance and disdain in his tone—it was clear that the guards had encountered


    too many people who asked for the same thing. However, the more the guards tried to chase them out,


    the more Vania was certain of her suspicions. Master Gordon must have some insider news. The lyrics


    talking about the separation of close friends might even be from Master''s personal experience, she


    thought.


    Vania used a cating tone when she next spoke. "Can you guys please help me to pass the


    message? My son was poisoned, and I''m afraid The Great Chemist is the only one who can help him,"


    she said. The rest of the security guards cackled among themselves—it was clear that they didn''t trust


    a word she said.


    "I genuinely want to meet Master Gordon to ask him for advice on saving my son''s life. I don''t have


    other intentions," she rified again. She didn''t know what the other people must''ve been seeking the


    master for in the past, and she didn''t understand why the master was so against meeting them.


    However, when the security guards heard her exnation, they onlyughed louder than before. The


    head security seemed to be deep in thought for a moment. "Let me think about it… I''m not sure how


    many people before you have used the same excuse." Saving one''s son''s life, having a poisoned lover,


    having parents who were critically ill… All of these were excuses that the guards were sick of hearing.


    These people can reallye up with the most absurd reasons just to meet The Great Chemist!


    One of the guards made a sarcasticment concerning Vania''s words. "If we had recorded all the


    illnesses we''ve heard of, we could probably write a medical dictionary."


    All the guards agreed that Vania''s excuse was terrible—it was almost as if she uttered the first thing


    she could think of.


    "Perhaps we''d spend more time chatting with you if you coulde up with an excuse that we haven''t


    heard in the past," another guardmented. He was tired of hearing the same excuses over and over


    again. Why can’t people have a little more creativity? Why can''t there be people who tell us something


    we don''t already know?


    Right then, a few staff members passed by with equipment in their arms. "Move along, move along…"


    another one of the guards said while waving his arms. He had used the same sentence countless times


    that year—he felt like a broken record.


    The head security guard didn''t feel a hint of empathy as he stared into the pitiful look in Vania''s eyes.


    Instead, the only thing he felt was annoyance toward her. "Stop wasting your time here. It''s impossible


    for you guys to meet Master Gordon. If you can afford to waste your time here, you might as well go


    somewhere else to seek help."


    Even though the Legend of the Great Chemist came from Gordon himself, other troupes started to


    master it after it became famous. Those troupes were performing the same track as well. So, the


    guards didn''t understand why so many people would approach them when there were so many other


    troupes within the city.


    "Move aside… Move aside…" The staff members passed by their walkway with more equipment in


    their hands.

    "The people who are using this walkway are mostly our staff members. You guys are being a nuisance


    by standing around here. You should stop getting in the way of them," one of the guards said.
