Chapter 127 Past

Isn't this making things difficult for me? Hearing Allen's request, Klein almost drew a crimson moon on his chest, but in the end he resisted the impulse and responded very seriously:

"Maybe some of my performances have caused you a misunderstanding."

"But I have to tell you that faith is something that will not be changed if it is decided."

Allen immediately raised his arms and made a sorry gesture:

"I'm sorry, I misunderstood your piety. I shouldn't joke about your faith."

"Okay, the difference in faith does not prevent us from becoming friends."

Klein put away his disguised expression just now and smiled:

"This sentence is not true in Fsack and Fenerport, they can only accept one belief."

In comparison, since multiple churches coexist for more than 1,400 years, Ruon and Intis have to be much more open in this regard.

Without waiting for Allen to answer, he pretended to change the topic casually:

"Have you ever seen Will Ansetine later? It's the child who had one leg cut off and said that your luck would be worse."

He believed that the night watchman would definitely follow the clues provided by Allen, so he was a little curious about what the ending was, and was curious about whether it was the child who changed Allen's fortune or the tarot card in his hand.

"No, I have never seen him since he was discharged from the hospital." Allen shook his head affirmatively.

It's a pity that the night watch can find it according to the hospital's registered address, but I can't interfere rashly... Of course, the child might have moved away long ago... After chatting with Allen for a few words, Klein prepared to go to the underground shooting range and use ordinary bullets to get familiar with the revolver attached.

At this time, two acquaintances came in at the door, one was a member of the Kingdom Air Pollution Investigation Committee, a shareholder of Coim Company, Mrs. Mary, and the other was Klein's landlord, Mrs. Starling Summer. They were all wearing relatively light skirts and looked much younger.

According to the club's regulations, each member can only bring one extra person in, so Mary's maid and specially hired bodyguards were left in the reception hall.

Klein politely greeted him, greeted him politely and praised:

"Two ladies, you are as beautiful today as ever, but they are different from the usual beauty."

最近接触了不少大人物的玛丽微微一笑道:

"Russell said that life lies in sports, and Starling always stays at home and deals with those trivial matters. Even if she goes out, she just attends banquets and listens to operas. Her health is much worse than before, so I brought her to play tennis and squash."

With her high cheekbones, she turned her eyes and saw a lower house member chatting with two Becklanders in the corner, so she turned her head to Staring and said:

"I met an acquaintance and went over to say hello. You can go to the library to wait for me."

"Okay." Starling was obviously much more beautiful than Mary, but she seemed quite respectful and gentle to the lady.

When Mary walked a distance, she raised her chin slightly and looked at Klein and said:

"Mr. Moriarty, you seem to be very busy lately?"

"Yes, I have been working with many detectives before to help the police department investigate the serial murder case. We made some contributions and received a lot of bounties." Klein answered "truely".

Starling reached out and covered her mouth and said:

"Really?"

"What does that murderer look like? Why did he kill those ladies? The newspapers are very vague."

"I'm sorry, I have to comply with the terms of confidentiality." Klein skillfully made an excuse.

I can't tell you that it has black fur, a moist and smooth tail, and likes to run on all fours... Klein complained in his heart.

Starling nodded with regret, and then asked curiously:

"Then how much bounty did you get?"

"Many of us divided up together." Klein did not answer positively.

"Is there 5 pounds?" Starling asked.

"Yes." Klein nodded "honestly".

Starling Summer smiled immediately:

"You earn more than I thought you were a capable detective."

"No, there may not be one such good thing in several years." Klein smiled and shook his head.

"No matter what, you have proved your ability." Starling's eyes turned, "Next Sunday, Luke and I will hold a banquet at home. I hope you can attend. Well, sorry, this is very presumptuous. I will ask my maid to send the invitation to you. Haha, there will be many unmarried ladies attending this banquet. Their fathers or mothers have relatively decent jobs, and their annual income is over 2 pounds. Some of them also work part-time jobs that can be done at home, such as typists. They are all very excellent women."

This is a blind date party... Mrs. Starling recognized my ability to make money as a detective, so she planned to introduce girls to the single one. However, in her eyes, I can only match women of this level. Klein instantly flashed many ideas, but considering the need to maintain neighborhood relations and the trouble of preparing dinner herself, she agreed with a smile:

“If there is no emergency, I will attend on time.”

Starling Zhan Yan smiled and said:

"Then Luke and I are waiting for your visit."

She stopped talking, said goodbye and left, entering the small library of the club, while Klein practiced his guns and extraordinary abilities in a closed shooting range step by step.

…………

At 9 o'clock in the evening, Klein sat at the desk, watching the crimson moon in the air gradually penetrate the clouds, revealing a figure that was no longer missing.

The light red "tulle" like water slowly swept away, and time passed by minute by minute. After 1 o'clock, he heard the illusory layering of prayers.

Without discernment, Klein could guess that this should be a call for help from Miss "Magic".

He closed the curtains, turned off the lights, walked four steps backwards, entered the gray fog, and reached out to touch the deep red stars that were constantly shrinking and expanding.

In an instant, Forsy's hazy and vague figure appeared on the chair with the symbol "layered doors" behind it.

She breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and saluted:

"Dear Mr. Fool, you saved me again."

"This is not something to care about." Klein responded in a calm and gentle tone.

Forsy was secretly shocked and sat down again.

She thought about what happened just now and didn't speak for a while, and Klein did not take the initiative to raise the topic in order to maintain his image.

In the towering palace like a giant residence, silence quickly became the main theme.

When Fors came back to his senses, she suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a bit depressing and made people uncomfortable.

During the party, there were Miss "Justice" and Mr. "World", who were not afraid of no one talking. Now, there was only Mr. "Fool", what should I do? I feel very stressful! I have to say something, I have to say something, I can't just sit like a fool... That's Mr. "Fool"! He certainly won't care about anything, but I was very nervous and restrained! Fors suddenly regained the feeling of being alone with his immediate boss when he first entered the workplace.

Although Klein was not an audience, he also clearly saw the restraint and uneasiness of Miss "Magician", so he smiled and said:

"Maybe you can tell me how you became an extraordinary person."

For example, how to get the "apprentice" formula and the bracelet... Krain silently adds to the real point of the problem.

Fors relaxed a little and recalled:

"That was almost three years ago, I just graduated from Beckland Medical School."

"With my father's help, I entered a private clinic with good treatment. Oh, my father has settled in Dongbailang."

"Since the safe passage to the Southern Continent was discovered, the outstanding young men of the Kingdom began to spread their footprints to every corner there. My father, as a lower-class officer, went to Dongbailang, chasing wealth and power, while my mother and I were left in Beckland, living a widowed and fatherly life, haha, it took several months for a ship to bring a letter from afar."

"This is not uncommon in the Kingdom. I know an old gentleman who has five children, but either in the archipelago, in the Sibairan, in the Pas Valley, in the Hagati grassland, they have their own careers, their own families and their wealth, but have forgotten that there is a father who always waits for their return."

"When I was in grammar school, my mother got seriously ill. I had no choice but to watch her die in the hospital bed. My father replied to me a letter that he had a new family in Dongbailang and had ushered in a new life. He gave me all of Beckland's property and gave me some extra money. I think he should feel a little guilty."

As a best-selling writer, Fors has mastered the skill of trolling the world.

Klein was idle and listened quietly without interrupting.

Huh, Forsi breathed and continued:

"Anyway, my father introduced me to the Yusef Clinic through the Retired Officers Club. The salary was really good. I was doing pretty well, but I was a little anxious about the future. So, I kept learning from the senior doctors and saving money until I met an old lady who often came to see a doctor."

"She is lonely, has no children, and her partner passed away ten years ago. I feel a little sympathetic to her and often talk to her and chat with her."

"Once, I was surprised to find that she could actually walk through the wall, which brought me into a new world."

"The old lady said this was the legacy given to her by his husband. She vaguely mentioned that as long as she was not from a family, there seemed to be no curse."

"It didn't take long before she was so ill that she was about to die. She asked me if I would be like her. I was very young at that time and had a lot of fantasies in my head, so I agreed without hesitation."

“She gave me the recipe and asked me to guard her body after she died, to take away the luminous items that would suddenly appear, and this is the legacy she gave me, which can be used as the main material for the potion.

"In addition, she also gave me this bracelet and told me not to use it when it is not the most dangerous time, and not to care too much about the whispers of the full moon."

"It's a pity that I couldn't avoid the danger after all. After using it once, the full moon's whisper became serious."

It seems that he was the widow of some Abraham... She proved with her own experience that the "curse" only exists in her blood... Klein nodded gently and said:

"When you become a high-sequence powerhouse, then whispering will not be of much use."

"I hope so." Although Fors doesn't believe that she can become a high-sequence powerhouse, she believes in Mr. "Fool".

…………

It was Monday again. As soon as Klein got up and went downstairs, he saw a spread out piece of paper on the coffee table in the living room with a brief content:

"efficient."

That's good... Klein immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

At 2:45 pm, he entered the fog on time and "prepared" for a new tarot meeting.
Chapter completed!
