"Oh, Capin is dead." Earl Hall crossed his legs and read the newspaper and chuckled. Audrey opened her eyes wide when she heard the name announced by her father, and used her "mind reader" instinct He restrained himself from becoming too surprised and asked casually:
"Who's Cappin?"
However, at this moment, Audrey's heart was filled with turmoil. She still remembered that Mr. Fool had announced the task of finding Kapin at the Tarot Conference a few weeks ago, but she did not expect that Kapin would be dead now.
Could it be that one of Mr. Fool’s favored people did it?
Audrey couldn't help but have some fantasies in her mind, and then she heard her father, Earl Hall, talking to her with a smile.
"A rich man who may be a human trafficker in private, a small nobleman from Backlund. Haha, he has a good relationship with some people." Earl Hall chuckled:
"Unfortunately, the two Extraordinaries who protected him this time were caught by the Church of Storms, and some of the people behind him may also be in bad luck."
"This guy himself was killed on the spot by an attacker, and the girls he captured before were all rescued. I don't know which extraordinary person did it."
After saying that, Earl Hall said with a slight sigh:
"Perhaps he has caught the sweetheart of an Extraordinary? Or the daughter of an Extraordinary disguised as a commoner. Haha, if something like this happens before His Majesty the King is preparing to conduct a knighting ceremony, those people behind him will definitely want to It will be strictly investigated by MI9."
Audrey's eyes lit up. After finishing the communication with her father, she was going to send a letter to Gray Lint, who was also an Extraordinary, and other noble friends in their circle who were interested in mysticism or had joined the military. them.
In Audrey's view, the extraordinary person who performed such a righteous act was very likely to be Mr. Fool's favored one.
However, this time, Audrey was still prepared to rely on herself to determine whether this incident was a "trial" carried out by Mr. Fool's favored ones.
The aromas of coffee and black tea were intertwined, and the latest magazines or newspapers were presented to a few noble young people by servants. Several of them were published by newspapers invested by Miskatonic University and Jishi Company. issued.
What is written above is roughly some fictional and geographical gossip. Unlike serious academic magazines, the author's writing is very vivid and full of interest.
This makes those nobles who usually don't like reading newspapers and magazines willing to talk about the above contents with their friends during afternoon tea.
Among these young nobles, only Conseil Leerson is an extraordinary person on the surface. Among them, he is the only one who has joined MI9 and is considered an official member. Because it is not allowed to openly search for extraordinary formulas to become extraordinary. If the king catches them, they may be deprived of their title.
Therefore, on the surface, only Kangs knew the most occult knowledge and the inside information that interested these nobles. Of course, except for the two "betrayers" among the nobles, Audrey, who joined the Tarot Society, and Gray Lint, who was captured by the High Dimensional Overlooker and became his favored one.
Audrey quietly guided the conversation of the people around her, allowing them to reasonably turn the conversation to the extraordinary event that suddenly broke out.
According to newspaper reports, Capping's villa was characterized as a vicious home invasion and robbery, and the red figure was officially regarded as a mysterious robber with a history of mental illness, described in the newspaper as a "hunter" ".
Of course, some newspapers also characterized him as a grand thief and praised him as a person who robbed the rich and gave to the poor.
"By the way, Cons. Didn't you join the military? What do you think of the home invasion and robbery case that was mentioned in the newspaper?"
One of the noble young men said to his companions. After hearing the words of his companions, the tall and thin Conse took a sip of coffee:
"I can only describe it briefly, I won't tell you directly."
"Haha, after all, I don't want to be locked up by our team leader."
Seeing that the noble young people around him expressed their understanding, Kang Si lowered his voice and said:
"This incident not only had the effects of flames and bomb explosions, but also spells constructed with blood and the like were detected. The identities of the other two extraordinary beings who were captured have also been identified. They are Spies from foreign countries.”
"Same as the last ambassador assassination case!"
A noble lady next to her exclaimed: "Those countries are still infiltrating spies into our side! Could it be that the Extraordinary who went to investigate Kapin's crime this time is an official Extraordinary?"
"Then I can't talk about that." Kang Si smiled and shook his head, taking the topic in a new direction:
"Speaking of Gray Linte, why are you suddenly planning to join the army? I have to remind you in advance. If you become a deserter, you will be deprived of your title by the king."
"After being a nobleman in Backlund for so long, I have to serve the country, right?" Gray Linte quickly fell into the state of an actor and said to Cons next to him,
"And I also want to try to get a higher title. Don't you think the king is planning to grant a new batch of titles recently? Maybe the situation in the Loen Kingdom will change. If my status is a little higher, I might You can also protect yourself better.”
"What you said does make some sense."
Cons nodded and said seriously: "Come on, Gray Lint, haha, I wonder when you can become the Earl?"
What Conse didn't say before was that the prisoner's codename in MI9's internal information was not "Hunter." Moreover, this case has been characterized as a crime committed by a high-sequence extraordinary person.
Because of the way he committed the crime and the symbolic meaning of the scene, which was like a sacrificial ceremony, the prisoner was directly put on the wanted list and was called the "Red Priest."
"Then it will probably take a long time."
Gray Lint returned the favor with a smile, and said to Cons: "In a while, after I finish learning the basic military content, I will go to the Southern Continent, and we may not be able to see each other for a while."
"Even if you colonize the Southern Continent, you will definitely come back after the New Year." Conse nodded lightly: "But according to your relationship with Earl Hall, I'm afraid you and Mr. Alfred may be together. A place to work.”
This refers to the business partnership between Viscount Graylingt and Earl Hall.
"When the time comes, please ask Viscount Graylingt to help me say hello to my brother."
I saw some young nobles turning their eyes towards me. Audrey said obediently, completely unable to tell that he was an extraordinary person. Audrey looked at Gray Linte's stronger spirituality and couldn't help being secretly surprised:
Now Gray Lint's sequence seems to be higher than his. Did he get the Sequence 7 potion through some great being?
He doesn't seem like the kind of person who wants to actively serve His Majesty the King and voluntarily go to the Southern Continent to endure hardships. Could it be that the potion he was about to digest prompted him to go to those places?
Audrey, who had completely digested the mind-reading potion, suddenly felt a sense of urgency. While thinking that she could not be left too far behind by her companions who were embarking on the path of extraordinary beings at the same time, she also thought that she had to fight for Mr. Fool. Share worries.
She plans to ask others at the next Tarot meeting if they have Sequence 7 extraordinary characteristics or materials. After a while, after the materials are collected, Audrey can be promoted to Sequence 7.
By the way, we also need to collect one for Susie, so we need to collect two materials.
Audrey thought with some expectation and distress. As for the money to buy these potion materials, she didn't take it seriously.
…
While these nobles were treating the events that happened yesterday as a topic after dinner, Dunn and Dai Li, the Red Glove members responsible for this operation, also placed the girls in place with the help of other teams and began to count their homes. Where exactly.
The mental condition of the newly kidnapped girls was relatively good, but they had some bruises on their bodies from being roughly dragged and beaten.
Those girls who have been trained for a period of time have suffered severe physical and mental trauma. They cannot return directly to their homes now and need to recuperate for a while.
Klein, on the other hand, hurried back to class. After all, Professor Moriarty would be knighted in a while. As a "multi-faceted spy" of the Church of the Night, Klein naturally does not have to do too much in these matters. Of course, he also has to maintain his own persona, at least not to let his identity be revealed before being knighted.
As the owner of Jizhou Company, which invested in materials, labor and daily operating expenses for this newly built monastery, Gao Wei Abraham came to the scene and asked several people about the situation of these girls.
"That's it, sir, you see how they deal with it. If your funds are tight recently, the Church of the Night can also bear their expenses. And we will also ask the police department to provide funds. After all, it has become like this now. situation, they also bear a great responsibility.”
Dunn said to Gao Wei businesslikely. Gao Wei tapped his cane inlaid with various gemstones on the ground and looked at these girls with some seriousness:
"You have worked hard."
This sentence was said to these members of the Red Glove Team. After a slight pause, Gao Wei's tone remained unchanged and continued:
"I never thought that something as vicious as this would happen even in Backlund. Even I have to admit that what Capin did has brought shame to the rich people in Backlund."
"The inaction of the police department is also one of the important reasons why evil people like them can become rich here. Mr. Dunn, please be sure to ask the police department to pay their share of the funds, of course for the health of these girls For health, I will first allocate part of the company’s spare charitable funds here.”
"You are a generous and compassionate gentleman." Dunn said sincerely to the aristocratic rich man in front of him. Gao Wei shrugged his shoulders:
"I don't think so. I think anyone with even a little bit of humanity should make such a choice. And what I'm giving is not much. After all, the police department should also bear a considerable part of the costs for us. "
"After some time, I will also advise His Majesty the King. If Backlund's police continue to be like this, if there is any large-scale vicious incident in the future, I think they will not be able to play any role."
"We will continue to follow up and ensure the safety of citizens."
"okay, I get it."
Gao Wei walked forward with an elegant posture and a steady pace that was extremely noble. He paused and walked to the newly kidnapped girls who had been rescued before:
"Which one of you is Daisy?"
After a slight noise, a little girl of twelve or thirteen stood up timidly. She looked at the young gentleman in front of her, wondering what he wanted to do.
Gao Wei smiled softly and said to him:
"I didn't pay much attention to your situation before, but my friend, Professor Moriarty, knows your mother. And I have read your files. I remember that you should also be an employee of our company. . However, before we had time to search for your whereabouts, some kind people have already rescued you from hell."
After saying that, Gao Wei squatted down gently and placed his cane on the ground. He didn't seem to care about the dust accumulated on the ground at all. He half-squatted and took out a vocabulary book from the pocket of his well-made suit:
"Is this your vocabulary book, Daisy?"
"Well..." Daisy said timidly. Gao Wei showed a smile on his face:
"I appreciate you children who love learning. Our company is now preparing to set up a training class. By then, children who pass the test will be qualified to study and work in the future."
"Of course, my training class is not for nothing. You have one year to pass the teacher's exam. After you are qualified to become teachers, you need to work in my company."
Watching the exchange between Gao Wei and the girls, the corners of the mouth of the goddess of the night, who was peeping secretly from a distance, slightly raised on her veiled face.
I hope that the experience on earth can add some "anchors" to the high-dimensional overlookers... Only the old days with sufficient restraints can rest assured that He will not turn against him one day because of the awakening of the original will.
And since I am ready to support Klein, I must make certain trade-offs on these matters.
The River of Eternal Darkness... This is something that can only be done by Klein. I don't trust the high-dimensional overlooker.
No matter what, my own old days should appear on the earth. Only in this way can I protect myself and those believers who believe in me in the future.
If that day really comes...
The goddess of the night thought so from the bottom of her heart.
