"Well, in this case, I owe you four pages of the diary." Lan
Audrey resisted the thought of bulging her cheeks, pursed her lips and smiled and said, "With so many diaries, I'm afraid I can't write them all down at once."
"It doesn't matter, you can take your time." As long as he is sure to make progress, Klein is not in a hurry.
Alger didn't interrupt.
He had just received a signal from Mr. "Fool" and the diary page he owed was transferred to Mr. "Tower"'s name.
"Thank you for your answers. I have a second question."
Audrey recalled the contents of the notebook and asked the question:
"I have heard the names of some mysterious organizations, and some of them seem to be very evil and terrifying, such as the 'Psychological Alchemy Society', the 'Aurora Society', the 'Rose School', etc., but it is difficult for me to come into contact with these in my daily life. It can only be understood through you." Lan
"Mr. Fool, Mr. Hanged Man, can you tell us in detail about each mysterious organization and each secret sect?"
Good opportunity, business is coming!
After hearing this question, Alger's heart moved and he felt that the funds for his activities were already secured.
Of course, before speaking, he did not forget to turn around to see Mr. Fool's attitude.
The good news is that Mr. Fool has no interest in answering such general questions.
Klein was sitting on the high-backed chair at the top, his eyes high, as if he didn't care about such a small topic... But in fact, he was so happy that he wanted to prick up his ears.
Miss "Justice"'s question simply penetrated into Klein's heart. She could be regarded as his half "trumpet" and perfectly solved the problem that had been troubling him. Lan
As a result, his affection for Miss Justice doubled.
Sure enough, ladies are cuter... Klein thought about the four members of the party. Two ladies were much more cooperative than two gentlemen.
"I can answer your question."
Alger thought for a while and said to Audrey:
"But I need a sum of money, 1,000 pounds, preferably unnumbered banknotes, or newly mined gemstones, calculated based on the average monthly price of the Backlund jewelry market."
1,000 pounds? This is a huge amount of cash, which can buy a house in an upscale neighborhood of Tingen! Not everyone can take it out at once... That's the annual salary of the captain, right?
Well, no wonder "The Hanged Man" said that gems can be used to deduct it. Lan
Klein is particularly sensitive to money figures. Fortunately, there was a thick gray mist surrounding him, so there was no flaw exposed.
The next moment, he heard the sound of his own heart breaking.
"1,000 pounds?" Audrey blurted out in surprise, and then replied in a brisk and cheerful tone, "No problem, but how should I give it to you, Mr. 'The Hanged Man'?"
From this tone, does she think it's cheap? Klein felt a little short of breath.
Alger also fell silent.
After more than twenty seconds, he spoke again and said:
"Find someone to send it to the 'Warrior and the Sea' bar on Pelican Street in the White Rose District of Pulitzer Harbour, and give it to the boss Williams, saying that the 'Captain' wants it."
"OK."
Audrey nodded, leaned back slightly, and said as an "audience", "Mr. Hanged Man, you may begin."
…
After spending some time, Alger talked about the rumors of the activation of the "Hidden Sage", the development history of the "Witch Cult", and the history of the "Spiritual Cult", "Rose School", "Psychological Alchemy Society" and "Secret Order" Some detailed information.
Nearly half of the content was what Klein had read in the Nighthawks' internal information, and the other half enriched his knowledge.
A sense of satisfaction from having sex for free arose spontaneously in Kelien's heart.
Audrey was also very satisfied with Alger's answer. She felt that it was a great deal to buy so much information and rumors for only one thousand pounds. Lan
She also used this to evaluate the value of Valeela's notebook and considered how to repay it.
Soon she had an idea to use the knowledge she just gained, along with 2,000 pounds in cash, as a reward for Valeela's notebook... It was already the end of the month anyway, and she had more than a thousand pounds this month. If you don't use your pocket money, it's a waste.
Of course, if she confirmed that Kiri was Mr. "The Hanged Man", she would not give the gold pound.
Having reached two deals in succession, the three people above the gray mist were satisfied and had no more thoughts about the deal.
After a moment of silence, the party automatically moved to the information exchange session.
Alger spoke first.
Although he guessed that Miss Temperance and Mr. Tower were on leave, Alger deliberately ignored this because Mr. Fool didn't mention it. Lan
He thought for a while and found a maritime rumor to share:
"When I was passing by Olavi Island for supplies, I heard that the 'Disease Girl' appeared near Tuscat Island, killed a well-known pirate captain, and robbed the other party's ship."
Olavi Island... The world map of the North and South Continents appeared in Audrey's mind. She realized that this was something far away on the sea, and nodded without asking further questions.
Klein listened quietly and said nothing.
Firstly, this is because he has no idea who the other person is talking about; secondly, it is also because the status of "The Fool" is elevated due to his honorable name, and he no longer needs to participate in this kind of "general" news sharing.
"Okay, it's my turn, let me think about what to say."
Audrey tilted her head slightly and put her hand on her forehead. Her face was slightly serious as she was thinking about it. After a while, she said: Lan
"Since the defeat of the war on the east coast of Balam, the king, the prime minister and all the gentlemen have felt great pressure and have an urgent desire for change."
"They believe that the current structure of the government is too chaotic. After every election, as long as there is a change of parties, a group of people will be replaced from top to bottom, making things a mess and extremely inefficient. This not only caused the defeat of the war, but also It also caused great inconvenience to the people.”
"But unfortunately, they don't seem to be able to find a good way to replace this system for the time being."
In order to hide her true identity, Audrey spent a lot of effort to dig out such a thing from her mind that was neither too trivial nor ordinary, nor would it reveal her identity.
The reason why it was so difficult was because she had too little experience.
In fact, even the news just now was completed through reasonable speculation and deduction based on the fragments of words she heard from her Earl father.
She had the impression that this matter had been debated several times in the House of Commons, but there was still no result. Lan
"Huh, what do they think?" Alger chuckled and joked, "Their senses are really slow. Maybe after they are bitten by a black mosquito, it will take a year before they feel itchy."
After listening quietly, Klein felt that the topic had entered his area of expertise. After all, as a keyboard master like him who "knows a little bit of everything", how could he rarely discuss political topics with people on forums before?
Maybe he was a little behind when it came to discussing theory in depth, but in this medieval-like context, in front of two political novices, he was still qualified enough to talk.
Do you know the civil service examination system? Klein spoke confidently and said calmly:
"It's a simple question."
…
Through a dimensionality-reducing attack-style science popularization, Klein succeeded in getting both "Justice" Audrey and "The Hanged Man" Alger to accept the civil service examination system, and successfully pretended to be a big one. Lan
Before ending the party, Klein explained to Audrey the time of the party, the ritual magic of asking for leave, and his correct honorary name.
After confirming that Audrey remembered everything clearly, he cut off contact and ended the party.
