Chapter 93 Discussion (2-day countdown to listing)
What is more embarrassing is that in this world with extraordinary power, the Holy Spirit Religion has no real miracles. Although it benefits from the support of the Kingdom, it is developing reasonably well among ordinary people.
But what about the reputation in the mysterious world, haha...
But then again, those magicians really don't do any good things.
There was no shortage of things like embezzling public funds, keeping mistresses, and selling indulgences.
Therefore, the upper echelons of the kingdom have always called for a strict investigation of the Holy Spirit Cult, but most of them have no follow-up.
Occasionally, the scandal of one or a few bishops was exposed, but it was quickly covered up, which made Aaron feel some undercurrents.
Of course, he still sees it as a joke.
'Now...it's time to get down to business.'
After enjoying the leisurely breakfast, Aaron lay on the easy chair, looked at Sylvia who was clearing the dishes, and suddenly asked: "Sylvia, your former employer, Mr. Benjamin...he might
His family, servants...do they have any quirks? For example, worshiping idols that do not belong to the Holy Spirit Religion, secretly performing mysterious rituals, etc.?"
Sylvia's movements froze: "No, Master...and it is a shameful act to reveal the privacy of your former employer."
"No, Sylvia, you know that I have special abilities, I just want to help Mr. Benjamin... I suspect that there may be some unclean things in his family!"
Aaron said in a serious tone: "So... the information you provided is very important, and it may be able to save the life of a gentleman or a family!"
Sylvia's eyes were slightly confused: "Mr. Benjamin hardly talks to us, and Mrs. Benjamin is a strict person. She will ask us to move the heavy furniture and clean every particle of dust on it, even in winter.
They would also order us to kneel on the floor and clean the carpets and boards... However, they have a good relationship as a couple, even though they have no children."
"Then when did you start feeling abnormal? For example, you felt unlucky..." Aaron changed his questioning method.
"Is it abnormal...? It was probably around April this year... From that time on, I always felt in a trance and broke things... Then I was fired... From that day on, I seemed to fall into
Nightmare, Mrs. Starla, the second employer, is a very kind person and has tolerated my mistakes several times, but I always do the wrong thing..."
Sylvia's voice was full of anxiety and uneasiness: "Fortunately I met you, otherwise I wouldn't have a third chance..."
"The second employer was willing to tolerate you a few times. The first employer served you longer, but you fired him as soon as something went wrong?"
Aaron smiled: "It seems that there is indeed something suspicious. By the way, where is Benjamin's house? What does it do?"
"Mr. Benjamin is a timber merchant in this city. He lives at No. 19, Joad District." Sylvia replied in a low voice, while looking at Aaron with worried eyes: "If the young master wants to investigate this matter,
Please be safe!”
"I will. Call me a cab."
Aaron put on his formal clothes, put on his hat, and walked out of the front door.
He was not going to come directly to the door, but wanted to discuss it with Clark Das.
…
Sycamore Street, inside Clark Das's villa.
After Aaron entered, he saw another person in the living room, Bruce Field, an occult enthusiast wearing gold-rimmed glasses.
"Good day, Mr. Field!"
Aaron greeted politely: "Are you coming to visit too?"
"I'm here to return the book. There are many treasures in Mr. Das's library that make people forget to leave. Besides, you can call me Bruce! I think we are already friends."
Bruce said.
Addressing someone by name directly is a sign of intimacy.
"So, Bruce, are you ready to leave?" Aaron said politely.
"Yes, I can't wait to go back and read it." Bruce patted a thick black hard-cover book in his hand and was sent out of the door by the valet.
Then, Aaron entered the study and saw Clark Dax.
"Mr. Das, haven't you accepted Bruce as your apprentice?"
He randomly picked a topic.
At this time, the valet had quietly closed the door.
Clark Das was wearing a loose silk robe and was standing in front of a row of bookshelves, putting in books: "Studying secret history is a very boring process. Scholars need to find limited true knowledge from a vast amount of information, which often contains fallacies.
, you need to distinguish between authenticity and authenticity with a meticulous and serious attitude... To be a good historian, patience and meticulousness are essential, Bruce... he is still a little impetuous."
Aaron shrugged his shoulders. In fact, he was not very interested in whether Bruce could pass the test. He just made a casual conversation.
Then, he told the story about the maid and Mr. Benjamin.
Clark Das sat on the recliner, took off his glasses, and sighed with a smile: "Since the last time you selected that maid, I felt that there might be some problems in the follow-up... You are ready to investigate, and you are not afraid of exposing your identity.
, attract the secret police? Although... your identity is probably fake."
"Why are you so sure?" Aaron did not show surprise, but asked with interest.
"Because you don't care at all about the trouble this identity brings... The Iron Fist Gang in Lower City has been looking for you."
Clark Das smiled and said: "Fortunately, they couldn't imagine that the person who attacked them was a gentleman from upper class society. You did a good job. You didn't kill anyone, and you didn't show any weird methods. This way, you are less likely to attract the attention of the Bureau of Investigation."
…”
He looked at Aaron with a scrutinizing gaze and paused for a moment on his purple eyes: "Purple eyes... This used to be the symbol of the blood of the Fabry royal family, but later with the demise of the dynasty, the remaining blood descendants flowed into the people.
, after a large number of intermarriages, although purple-eyed people are relatively rare in Inves today, they are by no means unheard of... Moreover, some nobles may have relatively pure blood, with purple-jewel-like pupils like you."
"Your wisdom and observation are really amazing..." Aaron showed a wry smile: "I am a descendant of a ruined nobleman, and my real name is indeed Aaron. As for the surname... Before restoring the glory of the family, you should continue to call me Aaron.
I’m Aaron Uggs!”
"Okay, Mr. Aaron Uggs!" Clark Das smiled, picked up the meerschaum pipe on the table, and filled it with shredded tobacco: "Back to Benjamin, according to your information, if it is...
If it is in April, it may be related to the path of that Si Sui. Well, we are already friends, so I will give you this knowledge for free... The Si Sui who is in charge of April is named 'Can Cocoon'
', He focuses on the path of 'chrysalis'..."
"What a coincidence is that the 'Lady in the Forest' who is currently in charge of July has three elements: 'Chrysalis', 'Shadow', and 'Ming', so she possesses both the 'Lady in the Forest' and the 'Stone-Hearted Old Woman'.
