Chapter 170: Coming Home Monthly Pass)
After hearing the familiar scene description, Audrey could almost confirm that it was done by Mr. Fool.
She suddenly felt a strong sense of inclusion, participation and pride.
It was a human trafficker full of blood and sin... The "Judgement" card means that he was being tried for a just manner, and the verdict was hanging, slaughtered, or stolen? The "Emperor" card should be a sign of identity... This is the one who sneaked into the Kingdom Museum and stole the "Black Emperor" card? For a moment, Audrey was full of thoughts.
She originally planned to ask more details and more detailed processes, but she understood from her father Earl Hall's expression, tone and emotional color that he didn't know what was going on yet, so she had to press down on doubts and curiosity and prepare to inquire from her friend Cons Learson, who works for the MI9th Division.
Although asking Cons directly is very consistent with my image in this regard, it is still a bit abrupt and slightly contradictory to the identity of the noble. Well... Anne asked him to prepare several afternoon tea invitations and give them to Glylint, Cons, Murray, Christine, Jane and others... Most of them are interested in mysticism, and they will not feel the title of "Black Emperor". Under my guidance, they can help me ask many questions that I cannot ask... It was decided... Audrey took back her attention and enjoyed breakfast in a small mouthful.
She believed that Mr. Fool's servants would not deal with Kaping purely for the sake of punishing evil, which did not conform to his identity. Of course, if it were Audrey, who had just joined the Tarot Club a few months ago, would definitely be willing to accept similar explanations, otherwise she would not have chosen the "Justice" card as her symbol.
After experiencing many gatherings and many things, she felt that she had become much more mature and no longer so simple. She believed that there must be more critical and essential factors hidden in this matter, such as which evil god Kaping was involved in or which secret organization.
Hopefully Cons can provide useful news…Audrey thought with anticipation.
…………
At 15 Minsk Street, Klein was eating white bread with jam while looking through the newspaper today.
"What? Safe?" As he looked at it, he almost blurted out, almost swallowing himself.
I'm not, I don't, don't talk nonsense... Klein immediately denied the description of stealing all the property in the safe in the form of a three-in-one in his heart.
The situation was urgent at that time. In order to obtain clues, although he found the safe, he just went in to see if there were any important documents and evidence. He did not take away any property. He quickly left there and moved into another room.
Of course, Klein, who was in the spirit state, was also injured in the explosion caused by gas, and the total weight of the items he could carry decreased a lot. Kaping's safe only had gold bars, jewelry, land deeds, house deeds and antiques, which were either inconvenient to take away or could not be taken away.
Maybe he still has a place to store cash, but unfortunately I didn't meet it and didn't have time to find it... Klein muttered silently, confirming that the person who divided all the property in the safe was some subsequent investigators.
He looked at the newspaper, took a sip of Sibe black tea, breathed slowly, and smiled in his heart:
"The thief 'Black Emperor'...I like this title..."
After breakfast, Klein put on a heavy double-breasted gown, took a half-height silk top hat and a black hard cane, opened the door and left Minsk Street, heading to the Broken Axe Lane on the edge of the East Side.
That's where Daisy disappeared.
After finalizing the plan yesterday, before taking action, he deliberately went to the Broken Axe Lane, carefully searching for clues, and knocking on the doors of many houses around him, asking them if they had seen any girls similar to Daisy.
Although Klein believes that the extraordinary official who took over will not feel that poor and poor families can afford to get a "thief" with at least 6 strength, he will likely focus the investigation on the secrets involved in Kaping, and supplemented with "Who has recently inquired about Kaping's affairs", he still decided carefully and tried his best to perform as much as possible when he started the performance. If any law enforcement officer had a brainwash, he planned to do a preliminary investigation in this regard?
Some families may still have some savings and can afford other detectives. I, a kind-hearted person who took over yesterday, have a very low probability of being suspected. As long as I am not suspected, I will not compare with my performance in the last Lanerus case... Moreover, the last time I was dispatched was the night watcher, and the special military department assisted. This time in Joewood District, the one who took over should be the punishment agent, and the communication between them will not be so smooth... Well, Katie and Parker are the "arbitrators" channels, and I don't know if the military will interfere... As the former night watcher, Klein has enough understanding of the behavior patterns, work styles and investigation habits of several official organizations.
Simply put, I have excellent anti-reconnaissance ability... Klein laughed at himself and got on the carriage.
He wants to continue investigating Daisy's disappearance.
Because he is an ordinary private detective who has not yet confirmed Daisy's disappearance is related to Kaping.
…………
At nine o'clock in the morning, Daisy returned to the dilapidated apartment she rented, accompanied by police officers in charge of the surrounding neighborhoods.
She was placed in churches in Jowood District with the same poor girls last night, and was asked accordingly, including the scene when they escaped, what they saw when they turned around, where they lived, what their family was like, what they felt like they knew was not very ordinary friends, etc.
Daisy, who was still in panic and afraid, answered those questions truthfully.
After that, no one looked for her again.
She slept in the middle of the night and was sent to the East District early in the morning and handed over to the vicious policeman she often saw.
Along the way, Daisy didn't dare to speak, and was a little nervous. When she entered the apartment where she was, she felt a little more comfortable.
As soon as she stepped into the room, she had not had time to find her mother and sister through the hanging wet clothes, and she heard a scream:
"Daisy!"
Freia put down her work, like a quick deer, avoiding the clothes in the air and the miscellaneous things on the ground, quickly ran to the door, and hugged her sister heavily.
Then, she let go of her hand, shed tears, and looked Daisy up and down with surprise and worry:
"Are you okay?
"Great, you're finally back!"
Liv also stood up from behind the washing basin, wiped her hands on her clothes, and wiped her eyes and said:
"Daisy, where have you been there these days?"
At this time, the policeman interrupted:
"She was kidnapped and we rescued her."
"Thank you, thank you! You are so great!" Liv shed tears and used adjectives indiscriminately.
The policeman coughed twice:
"This is our duty...have you met any strange people in recent days?"
Liv was stunned for a second, and she was missing something and was unwilling to add trouble. She said:
"No, really not."
The policeman waved his hand and said:
"Be careful in the future! Don't walk the path without many people!"
He couldn't stand the dampness and the mixed smell here, so he turned around and left immediately.
Liv looked at her little daughter again, strode to her side, wiped her hand on the side, and hugged Daisy:
"It's good to come back, it's good to come back..." She murmured with tears in her eyes, not asking Daisy if she was hurt.
Daisy relaxed and started crying with sobs.
Freia next to her also cried, stretched out her hands, and hugged her mother and sister respectively.
The mother and daughter cried for a while and each felt relieved.
Liv wiped his eyes again and said:
"There are many more things to wash your clothes first."
Daisy, who had just been rescued, nodded and quickly devoted herself to her busy work.
It was not until noon that Liv had time to ask:
"Daisy, are you injured?"
Daisy shook her head and said:
"They just hit me a few times."
"That's great! The police rescued you? Yesterday a kind detective was willing to help you find you for free, but you came back today. Oh, your word book is still there." Freia said casually.
Liv said with preparation: "I will ask Old Kohler to come back and tell the detective that you have been home so that he will not have to be busy anymore. No matter what, we have to say thank you to him again."
Daisy let go of her worries and instead answered her sister's question:
"No, it's not the police. There was a sudden explosion there, and the door that locked us was opened strangely, and we ran out like that, but there was a gentleman, or a lady, standing on the roof.
"He was wearing black armor, a crown-like helmet, and a cloak, and stared at us quietly, none of the broken ones came to stop us and chase us."
As the "guidance student" of the free school, Daisy's vocabulary is significantly richer than her mother Liv.
"A man in the clothes, that kind of person saved you?" Liv asked in surprise, Freya was waiting for the answer curiously.
Daisy nodded seriously and said:
“Yes, he is like, like the mouth of a bard…
"hero!"
Hero…Freia chewed the word, her eyes as bright as stars.
…………
In a secret room, a group of people took the information they sent, carefully compared the Lanerus case and the Kaping case, looking for the commonalities between the motives of behavior and the methods of committing the crime.
"The two things cannot be linked at all. The only thing in common is that evil, or sin, was defeated, and the owner of the Tarot card maintained justice." Someone sighed.
"What is certain is that the two attacks are not the one who attacks twice, their strengths are obviously different, and their expertise is even more different. Although this may be because of the improvement of the sequence itself, the murderer of the Kaping case is a resentful spirit, or can switch the state of the spirit body, which is not common." Another person's analysis was recognized by most.
So, the convener concluded:
"In both cases, two different people, they both threw tarot cards, maybe the latter imitated the crime, so that we can target the insiders of the Lamurus case, and the other may be that there is an organization!
"A organization symbolized by tarot cards!"
