After a friendly exchange, Klein, who had to go to the show in the evening, pretended to glance at the clock hanging on the wall of Mrs. Summer's house indifferently. He smiled and rejected the increasingly enthusiastic Luke's attempt to retain them.
An invitation to dinner.
"Thank you for the invitation, but I really have something to do tonight, and I think I will have a chance in the future." Klein, who refused with a smile, looked at the door that slowly closed, and after switching to the spirit line vision to confirm that there was no one else around,
Then he turned around and looked at Louis Evans beside him, his smile gradually faded.
Huh...hot breath came out of Dunn's mouth, blowing out a cloud of white mist in the air.
He pulled on his maroon coat and pointed out:
"It seems we are indeed traveling together."
"Mr. Evans, what are you talking about? We are all detectives." Klein shook his head slightly and had no intention of following the other person's words.
He didn't know the identity of Detective Evans. Being a detective and a child of a big family didn't prove anything. Mrs. Sharon was also a respectable lady in the social world. Wasn't she also a witch in the late stages of narcissism behind the scenes?
"Actually, I still like it here very much. Although Mrs. Summer does have a middle-class way of thinking that is criticized by others, their family are all kind-hearted ordinary people."
Listening to Dunn's hidden meaning, Klein couldn't help but have the urge to frown.
No, why do you sound more like a former official Beyonder than me?
Dunn on the side did not answer, nor did he care. He just nodded and showed his back to the other party without caring. Under Klein's gaze, he walked from the sidewalk into the house No. 15 next door.
What a strange person... Seeing that the other door was also tightly closed, Klein sighed silently.
Louis Evans is definitely not an official Beyonder. After all, according to Klein's own experience, if he were a Nighthawk, there would be no chance of him playing a detective from a big family.
Based on the actual situation, this detective is more likely to be an Extraordinary family member with an official background or endorsement from the church.
Of course, all this still needs to be observed...but if this is really the case, then I will have to be careful when doing something at home in the future, just in case chanting the name of "The Fool" is regarded as a cultist
It won't be good if you catch him.
Klein changed his mind, raised his arm, and waved to the hired carriage that was about to drive here not far away.
When today's affairs are over, in addition to entrusting Ian to help him investigate Detective Evans, he will also go to Mr. Eggron's place again. He does not believe that Prince Edsac will not leave this place when he rents this house.
The household survey is clear.
............
In the western suburbs of Backlund's North District, outside a three-story gray and white house that is about to be abandoned.
In this old campus that originally belonged to Backlund Medical College, riding in the "ordinary" carriage prepared by Viscount Greenlight and getting off not far away, Xio, Forsi and Audrey walked quickly, also wearing white
Wearing a long coat and a cotton mask, he looks like an ordinary medical student, and is extremely conspicuous in the night.
Audrey, the tallest among the three, had her long blond hair tied up high and put it into a cold-colored surgical cap. Forsi, who was on the side, followed her own little habit, although she also put away her long hair.
However, I carefully fastened a few paper clips on the loose medical jacket at the waist to create a waist-cinching feeling.
As for Hugh, even though she had inflatable boots, her standard white coat hung down to her ankles and didn't seem to fit her well.
Well, judging from Forsi's various little actions, she used to be engaged in a career related to doctors?
Audrey, who had finished digesting the "Mind Reader" potion, looked at the "Magician" lady who had a relatively low presence in the Tarot Club without leaving any trace. She followed her footsteps and walked through some of the doors and windows.
It was demolished and placed in a gloomy teaching building.
Further away, on another small building with only two floors, Klein, whose figure was blocked by the shadow, turned off his spiritual vision, jumped down from the height with nimbly movements, and was the last one to enter the gathering place.
Before this, he had been squatting for an hour, and the "substitute" on his right hand was always on, and he could use "Fire Jump" at any time to leave in a flash.
Although he had confirmed through divination that there was no danger, he still maintained the most basic vigilance. After all, this was a brand new party with an unknown convener.
He walked quickly along the corridor with only the moonlight shining through, constantly looking at everything nearby. Finally, after passing through the door and entering the deep room, he saw a classroom with a glass coffin and a specimen display stand.
There is even an upright glass column that also contains corpses.
Without exception, these specimens are all human!
Facing the gazes of many white coats nearby, he first locked his gaze on the faces of Miss "Judgement" and Miss "Magician" who had seen their true faces together with "Secret", and then quickly moved away and sat down.
Arrived at the corner.
In order to reduce the sense of presence, he did not hold the chain blade cane in his hand today.
In the quiet classroom, a glass column with a corpse in a black academic uniform floating on the top suddenly heard the sound of bubbles.
Just when Klein was surprised, the corpse inside actually opened its eyes, and its spirituality spread.
His spirituality penetrated the outermost glass, vibrated in the air, and rumbled:
"It's time to start."
This... this seems to be the way it usually happens to Susie... Audrey, who was still feeling a little trembled by the dressing up of the people around her and the cold environment, remembered for no reason the first time Susie met her...
The scene when I was talking was slightly dazed.
Is this also a way of using spirituality?
However, after the other participants around her regarded this behavior as normal, they did not think about it further. Instead, they quickly switched to the "spectator" state and observed every member who tried to trade.
"Hey, Viper, I brought the materials you need this time. The price is still the same, but the effect is at least twice as good as the ones you used before!"
Hearing a familiar voice, Klein in the corner turned around and saw a chubby figure.
The “medicine” at the “Eye of Wisdom” party?
The fat man didn't attend that party last week, but he seemed to have attended the party here. Does he think this party is more secretive?
The voice of the fat "pharmacist" still echoed in the empty classroom, but he did not wait for the guest he had made an appointment with last time. Instead, a tall lady who was completely opposite to the tall and powerful viper raised her hand and moved
It's full of flavor.
"Viper recently went to the countryside to hide from the limelight. He asked me to complete the deal for him."
"The poisonous snake has gone to the countryside?" the fat "pharmacist" repeated, his tone slowly becoming distrustful.
But then I thought about it, after all, we are doing business, so who should we sell to?
Anyway, these things that Viper topped should not cause any harm... It's just a pity, good mummy powder, if this woman is not the person entrusted by Viper, I don't know who will suffer...
..The "pharmacist" thought for a moment and nodded.
"Okay, that's still the old price."
Unexpectedly, the other party also did not ask any questions and directly gave the price he had agreed with Viper last time. It seemed that Viper was really in trouble and asked this woman to buy medicine for him.
Tsk tsk tsk, with this figure and this movement, no wonder the venomous snake needs so much... After receiving the banknotes and confirming that they were correct, the fat "pharmacist"'s eyes became more and more obscene. Klein and Audrey were watching from the sidelines.
At the same time, avert your eyes.
"Ahem, I want to know if d'Artagnan is here?" Seeing that the transaction was over, a man not far from the fat "pharmacist" asked in a hoarse voice, half covering his coughing mouth through a mask.
Judging from his familiar tone, this man whose name was taken from the novel about Emperor Russell should be a frequent visitor at the party.
"coming."
The whole classroom was silent for two seconds, and an old man of average height raised his hand. Judging from the light blue eyes and figure exposed, he should have been a sign of youth.
The man who seemed to be sick glanced at him with complicated eyes and coughed a few more times.
"Oh, I really don't know which one is the real d'Artagnan. Last time you were a young girl, and last time you were a young man. This time you are an old man again."
"It's the same anyway." D'Artagnan, with only one pair of eyes exposed, replied briefly, with a cold attitude.
Hearing this familiar style, the man who asked the question couldn't help but shake his head.
"Yes, it's the same anyway. No matter how you change your face, you still look as cold as a corpse."
As he spoke, he changed the topic and talked about his main point.
"I want to know about the resuscitation of corpses that often appear in cemeteries recently. If you know, it's better to write the news on paper. The old price is 15 pounds. This should be your strength."
He secretly pointed at the sequence where d'Artagnan might be.
Reanimated dead bodies in the cemetery?
Klein, who had experienced it once, suddenly felt strange. He cast his gaze in the direction of the two people, only to find that most of the participants in the party had the same reaction as him. Even the "Judgement" and "Magician"
Miss is no exception.
In this highly focused environment, D'Artagnan, who had a temperament as cold as a corpse, nodded slowly, took the banknotes from the waiter who was also wearing a white coat, and quickly wrote down a line of cursive characters,
He folded it in half several times and asked the waiter to hand it to him.
During the whole process, he made no attempt to respond aloud.
It's really curious. This kind of "offline" extraordinary gathering is not as good as our Tarot Club. There are always generous people like Miss Justice who are willing to let everyone hear information for free... I'm sorry for the gorgeous clothes on that person.
Forsi, who was deeply impressed by the young lady, secretly lamented and subconsciously glanced at Audrey beside him.
Well, this is also a rich young lady. I wonder if Miss Audrey knows the real identity of Miss Justice. At their level, they should have some relationship with each other.
In the classroom, the man finally opened the paper that d'Artagnan had just folded under the gaze of everyone around him. His extraordinary ability could confirm that no one was peeking.
The hands wrapped in blue gloves gently opened, and neat cursive text came into view.
"It is suspected to be the work of the Spiritual Religion Group. There should be demigods involved in the operation behind it. It is not recommended to go deeper."
